Chapter 165 Harvest
Lin Guoxiang did what she said, she ran to the Lin family's orchard and briefly told Father Lin about the matter, and Father Lin immediately ordered Lin Situ to go shopping in the town without saying a word.Lin Situ got his father's order, so he quickly rushed back with Lin Guoxiang, got into the donkey cart and left.

It was rare for Lin Guoxiang to have such an opportunity to go out, so naturally she went with her cheekily.

At first, Lin Situ saw Lin Guoxiang sitting on the donkey cart, and couldn't help but cast a glance in the direction of her house, and then asked her: "Little sister, I'll just go and buy things, and you can stay at home without worry." Well, the road is not good, it's a bit bumpy..." In fact, what he wanted to say was, little sister, don't go with me, or my brother-in-law will definitely blame me if he finds out.Obviously, this person is also well aware of Lin Guoxiang's nature, she is a woman of all sexes, every time she goes to town, she will definitely catch those handsome men and beauties and stare at them endlessly.

Thinking of Lin Guoxiang's habit, Lin Situ has always been a little puzzled. You say that you just look at handsome men, which is understandable, but why do you still "admire" beautiful women?Don't they say that women are the worst creatures of the same sex who look better than themselves, so what's the matter with Lin Guoxiang's behavior?

Lin Situ was puzzled by this. Of course, he was a simple ancient man, and there was no such thing as "lace" or "lily" at this time, otherwise Lin Guoxiang's behavior would definitely be skewed. thought about it.But Lin Situ is a good person, that is, he never competes with himself, and he is never willing to waste his brain cells and exhaust his mind to think desperately about things that he can't understand.When you should know it, you will know it. If you don't know it, it is a waste of brainpower to think hard, and it will be useless in the end.

For Lin Situ's idea, I don't know whether to call him open-minded or stupid, but I have to say, at least this way will lead to a simple and happy life.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of going upside down." Lin Guoxiang waved her hands nonchalantly, urging Lin Situ to leave quickly, "Fifth brother, let's go, or the town will stop later, and sometimes people will Once the stall is closed, I won’t be able to buy anything.” The sentimental person never thought about the fact that he didn’t want to take him to the town, and thought that Lin Situ was really just afraid that she would be bumped.I still feel emotional in my heart, after all it is better to have a brother, look, how concerned she is.

If Lin Situ knew what Lin Guoxiang was thinking at the moment, he would dig a hole in the ground in shame. In fact, he never thought that his little sister would be bumped...

"Ahem..." Lin Situ obviously choked on Lin Guoxiang's words, and he glanced at her house in a very cryptic way, but he didn't see the scholar coming out, so he said silently in his heart, "It's not that I want You took her to the town on purpose, so what, brother-in-law, you cherish it..." Then he drove the donkey cart out of the village helplessly.

At this moment, Xiucai was still seriously competing with those auspicious characters in the study, but she didn't expect that Lin Guoxiang had already gone to the town to admire the beauties behind his back, otherwise she would definitely roll her eyes angrily.

When she arrived in the town, Lin Guoxiang bought a bundle of bamboo and hemp rope in addition to buying a few knives of straw paper.Since you can use wooden circles and bamboo circles, it should be possible to use ropes, right?Anyway, this year's watermelons are mainly for experimentation, and she doesn't plan to make much money, as long as she doesn't lose money.

After the items were sold out, Lin Situ was afraid that Lin Guoxiang would fall into the old habit of searching the streets for "beauties" like the last few times, so he hurried her to go back.But he didn't think about it either, Lin Guoxiang went back and forth to the town with great difficulty, how could she go back so easily?So before Lin Situ finished speaking, she sank into the bustling crowd like a fish in water.Lin Situ had no choice but to take a few steps to catch up with the things.

Because Lin Guoxiang doesn't know how to drive a donkey cart, she has been staying at home these days. When the watermelon was first planted, Lin Fangnian and the long-term workers didn't know anything, so she had to teach and explain by hand. It's been a little bit but at least the life is very fulfilling, but now that Lin Fangnian and the others have started, she, the "master", is completely free, because everyone in the Lin family agrees not to let her work in the field, saying that the master should not work in the field by herself. live.

So these days, Lin Guoxiang is almost moldy at home.How can you be unhappy now that you have suddenly arrived in town?This time, Lin Guoxiang, who doesn't like shopping, went crazy, and reluctantly followed Lin Situ back when the sun was a little westward.

Lin Situ glanced at the things hanging on his body, such as sachets, colored thread and snacks, and the corners of his mouth twitched.I secretly decided in my heart that I would not bring my little sister to the town if I was killed in the future. It was too tiring, even more tiring than working at home.He really couldn't imagine that Lin Guoxiang's thin and small body seemed to be caught up with clockwork when he was walking around the street. Even he, an old man, felt tired and his calf was twisting, but he was stunned. I didn't feel anything at all, and I was still in high spirits.

Back home, Xiucai's face was obviously not very good-looking.It would be strange if his daughter-in-law searched for beauties all over the town. Lin Guoxiang also realized that what she had done this time seemed to be a bit too much. one day?So she hurriedly took out a few knives and gave him the high-quality brocade paper specially bought for Xiucai. This kind of paper is special paper for the Great Xia Dynasty's exams, and the quality and feel are good.

Xiucai wanted to buy this kind of brocade paper for a long time, but because of the old lady, she had to give her sister-in-law a sum of living expenses every month, so the small treasury was not very rich. Every time I went to the writing brush shop in the town, I saw this kind of paper. Although greedy but never willing to buy.Unexpectedly, Lin Guoxiang actually kept this matter in mind, and even bought him so many at once.It must be a lie if I say in my heart that I am not moved.

After accepting Lin Guoxiang's gift, no matter how reluctant the scholar was, he could only persuade Tun to go back to his stomach.I have already accepted gifts from other people, so I can't say anything more, but I secretly decided in my heart that no matter what, Lin Guoxiang will not be allowed to come to the town again.It's just that his wish can't be realized, because he and Lin Guoxiang will go to the town soon.

In the next few days, Lin Guoxiang has been very busy, busy with hanging fruit on melons, because watermelons originally grew on the ground, Lin Guoxiang put them on the shelf like pumpkins, so when watermelons grow up, they will inevitably grow up because of Too heavy to drop.No way, Lin Guoxiang had to use her body and some small tools to fix the watermelon on the vine.

While hanging fruit for the watermelon, they are also busy shaping the watermelon, instructing the workers to fertilize the melon seedlings, etc., and wait until the watermelon is formed before removing the auxiliary tools, and dipping the prepared paper-cut in water onto the watermelon In fact, because the paper-cut will fall off as soon as it dries, and it will get wet in rainy days, it is not like those lettering molds that can be fixed on the fruit without worrying, so it takes a lot of effort to form the writing on the watermelon.

So Lin Guoxiang led Lin Fangnian and those workers to run N times a day into the watermelon field, helping to fix the position of the paper-cuts, and replacing the broken paper-cuts from time to time, so that the word "grow" on the watermelon is still It takes a lot of work.However, when I think that I am the first person in ancient times who can make a watermelon grow into a gourd shape and "grow" auspicious characters on it, I feel proud for a while, no matter how tired or busy I am.

Facts have proved that if there is effort, there will be rewards. No, after this period of busyness, except for the watermelons that grew out of shape due to inexperience and the blurred handwriting, the rest are growing more and more. Well, except for the light yellow auspicious characters, the whole watermelon is dark green. If you don't look carefully, you may think it is carefully carved from emerald.Of course, this watermelon can have such a good appearance, apart from their good care, it is also due to the variety of melons selected by the scholar. If the variety is not good, she will not be able to grow such good-looking melons no matter how good she is.

This watermelon is grown by Lin Guoxiang, so it is natural to be the first to taste the taste. After cutting a few melons and tasting them, they are all sweet and sandy.In mid-June, the weather has started to turn hot. At this time, eating a few pieces of sweet and juicy watermelon is really refreshing. Lin Guoxiang feels that every pore of her sweat is stretched out.

Gourd-shaped watermelons with words have been planted, so the next thing to do is how to sell them at a high price.Regarding this point, the Lin family did not feel uneasy at the beginning, because the appearance of this watermelon is really gratifying, especially the auspicious characters on it, which are light yellow in color, with clear strokes, against the dark green color of the watermelon. The bottom looks more eye-catching.

And most importantly, gourds are also auspicious plants in the Great Xia Dynasty. I thought that gourds in previous myths were usually used by those immortals to hold things like elixir and dew, so almost every family in the Great Xia Dynasty would Plant a gourd once to symbolize auspiciousness, and use the gourd to bring some good luck and wealth to the family.

Now their watermelons not only grow into the shape of auspicious gourds, but also have auspicious characters on them. Everyone in the Lin family can imagine that as soon as the watermelons are on the market, they will probably be sold soon. Even if they can't be robbed, they will definitely lose money. I can't do it.

Now Lin Guoxiang's status in the hearts of everyone in the Lin family has clearly risen to a higher level. Apart from family affection, she also has a little more respect, yes, respect, just like the apprentices in the orchard treat the masters in the orchard.But thinking about it, Lin Guoxiang's skill is probably not second to none in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and it really deserves their respect.Especially Father Lin, he couldn't keep his mouth shut these days. This daughter is indeed the lucky star of the family. He is really lucky to give birth to such a capable daughter.

　Now I have encountered a bottleneck in writing. Although I have a lot of plots in my head, I just can't write them.Even if the plot is written out, it is far from what I thought in my head. I don't know what's going on.Tuanzi has been thinking about the outline now, so he will try his best to write the text better.

　　But to be honest, Tuanzi is really not good at writing romance and so on. Now many things are still groping and learning, so please forgive me for any deficiencies.
