One hundred acres of land is neither too much nor too little, but because it is wasteland, it takes a lot of time to cultivate it. First it is fire plowing, and then it is deep plowing. It is worth mentioning that Tian Minyan painted a harrow, she
After some explanations, some good farmers tried it twice, and saw that the grass roots buried in the soil were really raked to the surface. They couldn't help but marveled, and they all said that it was better than an iron hoe, and the rake was neat and clean.
At this time, the invited women and children came in handy. They followed the plow with a basket and raked and picked it up again, then raked again, and picked it up again, over and over again, until there were fewer or even no grass roots raked out.
, then gave up.
The best way to make a rake is to make a complete picture. He also makes eight figures and draws circles. It's like painting. He is very skillful and the flowing water is so beautiful.
As a result, Uncle Zhu made a small fortune and received a lot of business. He was so happy that he bought two bottles of wine and two pieces of good meat, and brought his family to Tian's house to share the meal.
"Just come home for dinner, don't bring any meat." While cooking, Luo said to Sister-in-law Zhu who was squatting on the stove: "We are all neighbors, so you should be polite."
"His father said that he is happy about this. He wants to eat two cups with Brother Tian. Two pieces of meat are nothing. Compared with the blessings that the second girl has brought to our family, this is far behind." Aunt Zhu went on.
He put firewood in the stove and said, "With just such a rake, our family can earn more than in a year. Do you think it's worth eating two cups?"
"What second girl? You are her aunt. There is no need to bury her. Just call her by her name." Luo Shi closed the lid of the pot, sat on the spoon and said angrily: "She is just full of strange things."
"Don't tell me, Yan Yatou became more agile after she fell into the water. She is really protected by a Bodhisattva. You see, your family is also very prosperous now. I tell you, it won't be long before your third wife is the first one.
Aunt Zhu raised her thumb and said with envy: "You are still lucky. Now the old man and the others have also gone to Henghe. You were separated early. Now that they are not here, they are living alone. Brother Rui and the others have gone to Henghe again."
If you study hard, you will be better in the future."
"That's what I got through. You see what I was like before, I'm just settling down now." Thinking of those days in the past, Luo Shi sighed, shook his head and said with a smile, "I see you guys live alone in this room too."
, not bad, Brother Zhu can love people."
"Fuck you." Aunt Zhu pinched her and said, "He is a good person. Even our old lady was very tight-knit. She feels better now that she sees us, but she is making trouble again."
"Well, it's also difficult for me to recite sutras at home." Luo also knew that Aunt Zhu's mother-in-law, like Jiang, was not easy to get along with, so the two families had a good relationship, firstly because they were neighbors, and secondly because they felt sympathy for each other.
When talking about the best grandma, the two of them were speechless for a while, but Aunt Zhu changed the topic: "I'm happy today. Don't talk about that nonsense, do you know that my eldest husband is engaged?"
"Of course, she's the girl from Wucun, right?"
"No, we originally agreed to get married next year, but the girl's grandmother was afraid that she wouldn't survive this autumn. She was afraid of keeping her filial piety, so she decided to get things done this year."
"Oh, that's a great event, but did you choose the date?" Luo Shi became happy when he heard it.
"I picked it. I wanted to avoid getting too close to her breasts, so I picked the June 15th one."
"Isn't that next month? Oh, it's almost time to get busy."
"No, it's okay. It's better to do it quickly so you can feel at ease. I originally wanted you to be the lucky person, but you are also blessed, so it's not easy for everyone to rush." Aunt Zhu said with a smile.
"Of course, who did you invite this guy to?"
"Brother An's wife from the Tian family is also a good person, so I hired her."
"That's good. She has a great temperament, and her family is docile. It's a good idea for you to invite her." Luo Shi clapped his hands and said happily: "Ask me to come to your house to help when the time comes."
"How dare you invite grandma if you have a big belly? When the day comes, just eat wine with your belly open." Aunt Zhu teased.
"See if I don't tear your mouth apart."
"..."
Outside the kitchen, Tian Minyan and Zhu Yanyin were also choosing dishes and talking.
"Yan'er, who are you going to marry in the future?" Zhu Yanyin asked, peeling a piece of cabbage.
"Hey, our sister Yin wants to get married in the spring?" Tian Minyan smiled and bumped into her: "Tell me, sister, which good man do you like?"
After hearing this, Zhu Yanyin's face turned red as blood. She slapped her arm hard and said in feign anger, "No."
"No, why are you asking? I remember you are only three months younger than me, and you are not yet twelve years old." Tian Minyan rubbed her arms and smiled bitterly. Are children in ancient times really so precocious? I thought about it at the age of twelve.
Married.
"As I said, my eldest brother will get married in June, and I have met my sister-in-law once, but I can't imagine who we will marry in the future."
"Of course he's a man."
"Sister Yan..."
"Okay, I won't tell you, you tell me, you tell me."
Zhu Yanyin blushed, glanced at the kitchen behind her, and lowered her voice and said: "In the future, I want to marry someone close to home, someone who is good-looking and honest. He can only like me and not anyone else."
Tian Minyan burst into laughter, turned around and saw Zhu Yanyin bulging her cheeks and staring, she quickly covered her mouth and said: "If you don't laugh, you will never laugh."
"Hey, this is just my own idea. This marriage has always been the order of my parents and the matchmaker. It's not up to me to choose or not. Just like my sister-in-law, it's not like this." Zhu Yanyin actually sighed.
Angry, he looked at Tian Minyan and said: "Sister Yan, sometimes I really envy you. You are beautiful and smart. You can also draw farm tools and make cakes. You are so talented that you will definitely be able to choose a good husband in the future. And me, what?
I don’t even know. Apart from embroidering, I just do farm work.”
Tian Minyan looked at her beautiful profile and sighed in her heart. A girl who was only twelve years old had such worries. People in ancient times were so precocious and precocious.
"Sister Yan, you must choose a majestic man who matches you."
"I just want to choose someone who I like, who likes me, who is a man, and who is good-looking." Tian Minyan said while holding her chin and looking at the clear blue sky.
Regardless of her parents' orders or the matchmaker's words, she will definitely choose her own man in the future, no matter whether he is poor or rich, as long as she likes him, falls in love with him, and he loves her too, then that's enough.
It’s not that she just wants love without bread, but she can’t accept a blind marriage. She can’t sleep in the same bed with a man she doesn’t love. She can make money without money, but she can’t do it without love. So, she wants to
Find someone to love, the right person. Of course, the other person must also love her, and only her.
