Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Entering the main room, she held Dabao in her arms and sat there, thinking that she had to do some more work for the child.

This was in the ancient times when men were king. Chu Lingxuan himself had a powerful family, a high-level career and a strong personality. It was very, very difficult for him to accept Dabao and treat Dabao very well at present. Chen Afu felt that the reason why he was able to treat Dabao so kindly was that he was moved by his kindness to Miss Chu, his own mind, and maybe he really loved himself.

She hoped that Dabao could cherish this goodwill, and even if he couldn't immediately love Chu Lingxuan as his own father, at least he should be able to look good on the surface and not be too careful. He thought he was very smart and concealed it well, but in fact, adults saw through it.

But what should I say? This made Chen Afu a little embarrassed. Naughty children are sensitive and suspicious, so you must speak politely, otherwise it will backfire.

Dabao was held in his mother's arms. When he heard her sighing softly, he rubbed his head on her chest and spoke proactively, Mom, do you think your son is playing tricks on Uncle Chu? What's wrong? Actually, I don't want to do this either.

This kid also knew that he shouldn't do this, and even used an idiom. She asked, Why do you do it when you know you shouldn't do it?

Dabao pouted and said, I just can't help it. I feel uncomfortable when I think that we will sleep on the same bed with him in the future.

Chen Afu twitched the corner of his mouth, saying that he was sleeping on the same bed!

She said, What nonsense are you talking about? So and so is sleeping on the same bed. Others will laugh to death if they hear this.

Dabao said in confusion, What's so funny? Aren't other families like this? I saw my grandpa, grandma, uncle, and uncle. In those families in the village, as long as they are a couple, they have to sleep on the same kang. You also have to sleep with your sons and daughters. Some families have so few houses that even their grandchildren have to sleep on the same kang.

He is already five years old and should sleep in separate rooms. He will have to find time to deal with this matter in the future. Chen Afu secretly said.

Our family has a lot of houses, so things like that won't happen. Chen Afu said, rubbing his little head and then said, Dabao, look at sister Yan'er, she is not my mother's biological daughter, not your biological sister. She didn't live with us in the past. Do you think she likes my mother? Does she like Dabao?

Dabao raised his head and said in surprise, Of course sister Yan'er likes us two, hasn't mother noticed yet? He felt that mother was asking questions knowingly.

Chen Afu added, Yes, the reason why she likes us is because we treat her with sincerity and love her like a family member, so we gained her love. Now, your father is also treating you with sincerity, He loves and cares for you like a family member, and he also hopes to get your love for him. If you keep guarding him like an outsider like this, he will be sad. Not only will he be sad, if sister Yaner knows that you treat her father like this, You will be sad too. If you put yourself in my shoes, if my mother has always been very kind to sister Yan'er, but she doesn't appreciate my love and is still on guard against her, wouldn't you be sad?

If that were the case, he would be sad. He nodded and asked, Mom, Chu...Does dad really like me? If mom marries him, will she still love me as much as she does now?

This is the most troubled question in his heart.

Chen Afu touched the top of his head with her chin, and the cannon stung her a little itchyly. She said, To answer the first question first, at least your father really likes you now. Think about it, if he didn't really mean it, why would he accept you as his adopted son, and why would he bring you gifts every time he comes back? , teach you kung fu, and also invite a knowledgeable gentleman from the capital to teach you, hoping that you will become a talented person and be a useful person to the court. Give me peaches and give Qiong Yao in return. You should also treat him sincerely. Ah. Even if you can't like him from the bottom of your heart now, you must respect him from the bottom of your heart. You are a smart child and know what is best for you. Otherwise, over time, if he gets sad, will he still be able to do it? If this is good for you, my mother won’t know... To answer the second question, my son asked this question, and thinking this way, my mother is a little sad. Son, my mother wants to tell you that in this world, there is a feeling that will never change. , that is the love a mother has for her children. No matter when, no matter how long it takes, this love will never change, never, never...

Speaking of this, Chen Afu thought of his biological mother. How sad she must be when her son is gone!

Chen Afu's last words touched Dabao, and he knew that his mother would love him forever. He also knew that it would not be good for him if he displeased Chu Lingxuan. Then he promised, Mom, I know. I will try my best to really like my dad in the future, and I will try my best not to play tricks on him or play tricks on him. I will no longer worry that my mother won't like me if she marries him.

Chen Afu lowered his head to look at Dabao, who was still a little entangled. Only when he saw that he had not been abandoned in his future life would he slowly let go of his grudge. She kissed his little face and said, Okay, you have to remember what you just said, mother will wait and see.

After that, Chen Dabao went to the study room to complete the homework left by his husband.

Chen Afu called Old Man Zeng, Chu Xiaoniu, and Xue Dagui to discuss the transportation of watermelons tomorrow.

The five acres of melon land at the north end of the yard, plus some land between Fuyuan and Luyuan, and some land in the back garden of Luyuan, total about six acres. There are more than 600 mature watermelons in the first place. , weighing about nearly 7,000 kilograms.

In his previous life, the watermelon yield per mu could reach more than 6,000 kilograms. However, in ancient times, insect control, fertilizers and other aspects were relatively backward, and the seeds that emerged were not soaked or treated with chemical fertilizers, so the melon farmers here could produce less than a thousand kilograms per mu.

Through experiments with cucumber seeds, Chen Afu learned that placing watermelon seeds in an open space not only improved the taste, but also improved the seeds' ability to prevent diseases. She also soaked the seeds in warm water to germinate faster. Especially the six acres of melon fields nearby, she also applied swallow manure, which made them grow better and be more productive. Since the 80 acres of land in Wangshan Village does not have swallow dung, the yield will be slightly lower and the time will be slightly longer. There will also be some losses due to insect pests, but compared with local melon farmers, it is still much better.

She estimated that the yield of these six acres of land would not be less than four thousand catties. Even if it was four thousand catties, the six acres of land could produce a total of twenty-four thousand catties of melons. The first recommendation will be made tomorrow, the second recommendation will be made in five days, and the third recommendation will be made in ten days.

Immediately afterwards, it was time to pick melons in the melon patch in Wangshan Village. The yield per mu there should be less than 3,000 jins. With 80 acres of land, it is conservatively estimated to produce about 200,000 jins of melons. With such a large quantity, transportation in ancient times was not developed. If you want to sell it at a good price, you must first explore the sales market.
