Rebirth of farming for a living

In the morning, Wang was going to sell braised pork as usual. Wang Daniu also woke up and said he wanted to go with Wang.

He was stopped by Li Qiuyan.

Li Qiuyan said he wanted to prepare the land, and the whole family was confused.Li Qiuyan took out the seedlings he had raised and said he wanted to plant them.

Li Xiangnan said: "Yanyan, don't be ridiculous. We only plant for one season. We have never seen anything like yours. What if you freeze to death in the winter?" After saying this, he asked Wang Daniu and others to leave first.

Li Qiuyan refused to give in, but Li Xiangnan couldn't resist, so Wang left first with the braised pork.

Wang Daniu said happily: "What good ideas do we have?"

Li Qiuyan smiled, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to tell if he failed, so he said: "Keep it a secret for now, uncle, you can help me clear the land. If it can be done, I will tell you later."

Wang Daniu didn't insist on asking.Everyone got up one after another, had breakfast and went to the fields.

Li Qiuyan's family has three pieces of five acres of land, but fortunately they are not far away.Originally, Li Qiuyan meant that an area of ​​more than an acre would be enough.Now that uncle and the others have done it, they have consolidated the two acres and one acres together.

There was no rush at noon. Everyone went home and had lunch, then rested for a while and continued working.

By the afternoon, it was almost done. Wang Daniu asked if there was anything else.Li Qiuyan thought that there weren't many sweet potatoes, and they could only plant more than one acre, so he didn't ask his uncle to help.After Wang finished selling the braised pork today, she bought a large piece of pork in the town and a bag of brown sugar, which she took back to Wang Daniu and the others.Li Qiuyan and Wang Congcong were reluctant to leave for a long time. They agreed to come back to play after a while, then got on the bullock cart and left.

After Wang Daniu and others left, Li Xiangnan asked Li Qiuyan carefully. Of course, Li Qiuyan didn't hide anything. She took Li Qiuyan into her "laboratory".

Li Xiangnan and Wang were extremely surprised to see the wood covered with dense fungus, as well as the green buds on the kang. They knew what Li Qiuyan was up to, but every time they asked, Li Qiuyan just smiled mysteriously. Let them in, and over time they will stop asking.

"Dad, Mom, this is the fungus I planted. The fungus grows very fast, but our house doesn't have such a big place, so I'm not in a hurry to sell it. As for the land I asked my uncle to level, this is it." Li Qiuyan said, walked to the kang and picked up the buds that had been grown.

"Yanyan, didn't we buy this from the old man on the roadside? Can this be grown?" Wang asked in disbelief.

Li Qiuyan smiled confidently: "Yes, mother, this is of great use. I heard people say it is easy to plant. But I have never planted it before. I will get half a basket of seeds first. If it doesn't work, I will plant the remaining half basket in spring. Plant again.”

Wang and Li Xiangnan looked at each other and wanted to say something else. Li Xiangnan pressed Wang's hand and said to Li Qiuyan: "Yanyan, if you want to give it a try, just give it a try."

Li Qiuyan cheered loudly. She also knew that land was the lifeblood of farmers. Now that Li Xiangnan had given her power, there was no doubt about his trust in her.

Li Qiuyan acted coquettishly again: "Dad, when you raise me again, please help me." Li Xiangnan responded with a smile.

Mrs. Wang also smiled. Ever since Li Qiuyan fell into the water and Li Xiangnan fell on his leg, Li Qiuyan seemed to have grown up overnight. Not only did the family's life not get worse, but it also got better and better.

In fact, privately, Wang didn't want Li Qiuyan to think so much every day. She felt too tired and distressed.But she also knew that Li Qiuyan was insecure.So, she told Li Qiuyan: "Yanyan, our family is engaged in this sewer business. I will give you the money but you won't take it. In fact, we have saved more than four taels of silver now. There is also Lonicera money. Now you have it." It’s time to have three or four taels. In previous years, we couldn’t earn so much in a year, so we can not be so anxious. The sales are quite stable. By next year, your father’s leg will be completely healed, and our family will be fine. .”

Seeing the loving look in Wang's eyes, Li Qiuyan felt sad, saying that it was hard work, but Wang worked much harder than him, but he still thought about himself.However, although the money earned is not small, it is only compared to the previous home.

She explained: "Mom, how long do you think the water can be sold for?" Wang was startled. She thought the water business was very good.

Li Xiangnan also asked anxiously: "What's wrong, my dear, is someone tripping you up?"

Li Qiuyan smiled bitterly: "Dad, Mom, no one is causing trouble. Think about it, when the New Year pig is killed this year, how many families in our village can kill it? Mom is now famous for selling sewers. When the time comes, others will ask How to wash, we don’t have to tell outsiders, but how long can the family keep it secret? Why offend others for this matter? When the method spreads, there will definitely be people doing business. Who knows, the price of water will also increase. Therefore, at most, sell By the end of the year, we won’t be able to sell it.”

Wang still didn't believe it: "Well, we are famous, and people still come to us a lot."

Li Qiuyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, if you do a two-penny business, there will be more people selling, and there will definitely be fewer people buying. There are only those people at the dock. How can we make a profit? If we make that little money in a day, it won't be cost-effective." ”

Seeing that both Li Xiangnan and Wang looked a little disappointed, Li Qiuyan couldn't bear it and said, "Maybe, we'll think of other ways when the time comes. Didn't I plan in advance?"

The family talked about it and went back to the house to sleep.

Li Xiangnan and Wang returned to the house. Wang had been tossing and turning for a long time and couldn't sleep. She was selling water these days. Although she was a little tired, she was fulfilled. She was not used to it when he suddenly said that this business would not last long.

Li Xiangnan advised her: "Don't you complain that you are tired every day? You and Yanyan are very busy at home doing this business. If there are other ways, it's okay if we don't do this business. Besides, it's okay if we haven't done it before. At worst, I don’t have enough money, so I’ll go out to do odd jobs.” Wang quickly refused, saying: “I just want to stop doing business, and I feel a little uncomfortable, so it’s okay if I don’t do it. With the income from Honeysuckle, your legs won’t hurt anymore. Okay, just make money slowly."

Li Xiangnan nodded: "Yes, that's the truth." After the two of them finished speaking, they fell asleep.
