Qi Shiqi did not stay long after delivering the seed potatoes. He told Tian Minyan that he was going back to Kyoto. If anything happened, he would go to Wenxiangju and tell shopkeeper Qin, and left in a hurry after lunch.
After a few days of this, Tian Minyan asked someone about the current price of fish, and then organized long-term workers to go to the fields to catch some large fish to sell.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, crucian carp and carp have always been very high, and they can be bought for thirteen or fourteen cents a pound. Even grass carp can be sold for ten cents. The first batch of fish caught weighed several dozen kilograms, nearly 10 cents.
Nine hundred yuan came in. After the rice was eared, fish were fished out one after another to be sold or sent to the county shop. This came in almost every day, and Tian Minyan's family all smiled and narrowed their eyes.
The Tian family has really developed a rice field and fish culture, and they are making money every day. Not only their family, but also those who followed Tian Minyan's family and started a rice field and fish culture. This has exploded in Yangmei Village. Some people have done it.
Some were jealous, some regretted, and some couldn't wait to come to Tian Minyan to ask them what they were going to do next year.
There was a bumper harvest from raising fish in the rice fields, and the sun-dried seed potatoes had to be cut into pieces, so the Tian family hired another day laborer to help. This time there were more seed potatoes, so they hired more people than last time.
Because the Tian family had agreed to take everyone to work on the rice fields and raise fish in the coming year, this was undoubtedly like a chicken blood in Yangmei Village. The people who came to help were very diligent, quick and crisp, and soon the ten thousand
Cut a pound of seed potatoes into cubes to germinate.
The atmosphere of autumn is getting stronger and the temperature is much cooler. In order to accelerate the germination and planting, Tian Minyan put all the cut seed potatoes into the house and put some charcoal stoves to keep the temperature high for germination.
Everything is going very smoothly, the business on the first floor is very stable, and even has an upward trend. The rice fields and fish farming are also making money, and the preserved eggs in Kyoto are also getting dividends. Luo Shi's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and he will be born in two or three months.
You have to live. People are in high spirits during happy events, and the Tian family smiles at everyone all day long.
Sanfang was getting more and more successful as time went by, but things were not so smooth in Henghe. When September came, news came from there that Tian Minlin had failed again and still failed to pass the scholar examination.
Since Tian Minlin couldn't pass the examination as a scholar, it was even more impossible for him to get a good marriage from the magistrate. I heard that when Mr. Chen was so shameless, he asked someone to mention it, but they simply said that his daughter was still young and she should stay for two more years, so he refused.
.
Keeping a daughter for a few more years is a common excuse for rejecting a marriage, and that's all. But the prefect's wife refused Chen's marriage proposal, and then she got married to Xia Xiaohou, the Qingzhou fiefdom.
, I heard that she was still a wife of equals, which made Mrs. Chen very angry.
This person would rather be a common wife or concubine of a wealthy family than marry you as a wife of a humble family. Isn't this a slap in the face of Mrs. Chen? Can you not be angry?
"Your eldest aunt is also too ambitious. She needs to be virtuous when marrying. Even if she doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law from a small family, she should find a virtuous man who can do housework for Brother Lin, right? As for the prefect's daughter, she has grown up
If someone from Jinwo really gets married, he won’t be able to support him. I don’t know if he’s marrying a daughter-in-law or marrying an ancestor.” Luo Shi was tinkering with the scaffolding in the vegetable garden with a full belly, and looked at the people around him.
Tian Minyan sighed.
"Mom, that's not what you said. Isn't there a maid? How can I do it on my own?" Tian Minyan laughed.
Although she is a low-ranking official from the ninth rank, Mrs. Chen considers herself to be a high-ranking official from a high-ranking family, so she has such a big idea. Even if she marries a golden phoenix, she will have girls to take care of her.
It would be great if you can get married.
"So she said that she was overthinking and delayed the child. I wonder if Sister Zhuang's matter has been negotiated?" Luo Shi said tightly: "Sister Zhuang is no better than Brother Lin. She is seventeen after the Chinese New Year.
, If you don’t decide, you’ll become an old girl.”
"Mother, do you think Mrs. Fang would be willing to sacrifice such an ancestor? Didn't I tell you that eldest brother Fang Yu won the imperial examination?"
"Yeah, that's right. Look at me, I've forgotten about this. You should be tighter on that gift." Luo Shi stopped after hearing this and said with a smile: "It's a pity that you are a little younger. I think Mrs. Fang
But I have to be tight if I like you."
"Mom, you're here again." Tian Minyan glared at her and said, "How can there be a mother like you who rushes to send your daughter out?"
"My daughter is lovable, and I'm very happy about it." Luo Shi didn't mind at all, and after thinking about it, he said: "There are many families who have arranged marriage arrangements for babies. If there is a good family, it would be better to settle it earlier.
It doesn't matter, if you stay at home for four or five years, you'll be old enough, so you can just go around like a relative."
Tian Minyan was startled, fearing that her mother would sell her out without saying a word, so she hurriedly said: "Mom, please don't secretly book a house for me. I want to choose a husband I like."
"Since ancient times, marriage has been dictated by parents. How can you choose it yourself? You are not shy." Luo Shi said with a click of his tongue.
"I don't care, anyway, I have to make my own choice." Tian Minyan stuck out her tongue and said with a coquettish look on her face.
Tian Minyan didn't want to get married blindly. Even if she chose someone who was extremely poor, she would definitely like it. She couldn't live her whole life with someone she didn't like at all.
"Chengcheng, I want to open my eyes and see, what kind of golden bump are you looking for?"
Tian Minyan chuckled, and a handsome face suddenly flashed through her mind. Her face heated up, and she quickly shook her head to get rid of the unrealistic thoughts.
Luo Shi was about to speak again, but he saw a carriage approaching his house in front of him, and he couldn't help but said: "Hey, Nannan, can you see if that is the carriage from Henghe?"
Tian Minyan hurriedly stood up, stood on tiptoe and looked around. She immediately saw Wang Dahua sitting on the shaft of the car and driving, and said, "Isn't that right? I don't know what's going on?"
Someone is coming from Yokogawa at this time, but what's wrong?
"Let's go and take a look."
The two mother and daughter walked out of the vegetable garden and walked directly to the main door in front of the house. The carriage screeched to a halt. Then, a woman in rich clothes got off the carriage and turned around to help the people on the carriage.
When both of them came down, Luo Shi took a closer look, and his body suddenly froze there, his face turned pale, and he suddenly staggered.
Tian Minyan was startled, quickly supported her, and asked with concern: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay. Why did she and the others come back?" Luo Shi squeezed her daughter's hand and said awkwardly.
Tian Minyan looked over and saw that the person who came back was not the person they just talked about, the eldest aunt Chen, and the best grandma, Jiang.
Looking at the two people wearing silk and satin, Tian Minyan had a headache for a while. No wonder Luo Shi turned pale with fright. This Jiang family is a nightmare for the Tian family!
It's true that don't talk about ghosts at night and don't talk about people during the day. If you talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there.
The author expresses envy and jealousy towards those authors who only update one chapter and 2,000 per day, but don’t worry, I won’t do this~
