Chapter 10:The Green Lotus Peasant Girl
"MEETING"
Qian turned around and saw two people in the yard looking directly at her. She was startled at first, then recovered her complexion, and said, "Wanwan, you can help me cook and steam some steamed buns for a while. The autumn harvest is coming, and there will be no time to cook."
Zhao Wanwan didn't move, "You quietly give money to uncle?"
Qian's complexion changed, he glanced vaguely at Li Qinghe, frowned and said, "Bad girl, learn to peek. How can it be said that it was secretly? Your father asked me to give your uncle the money. He has been studying hard, so it should be more. Eat some meat dishes."
Speaking of the last, a look of worry.
Really think so.
Li Qinghe didn't have any problem with Qian's use of silver to supplement his younger brother, but the silver should belong to her father. If Li Fu had a bad life, she wouldn't be able to watch it, otherwise the spit star in the village could drown her.
Then he said, "I'll ask my father."
She said she was about to go out, and she did not forget to carry a knife for mowing. Ignoring Qian's call, she went to her wasteland after going out.
It's probably useless to say that. Qian always has a way to coax Li Fu well, and she doesn't bother to say that. The reason for saying that is just to scare Qian.
The land she bought was in the southwest of the village, close to the foot of the mountain, and separated from the village by a small river. The sun began to shine in the morning and the surrounding scenery was good. In fact, after she married into Xu's family in her previous life, she had no time to go out. When I walked in, I was pressured by all kinds of housework, and I had to help me get to the ground when I planted in the spring and harvested in the autumn.
Going comfortably to the southwest, the road is quite wide, and a woman in front carrying a large load of grass came over. After seeing Li Qinghe, she stopped and said, "Qinghe, where is this going?"
The woman in front of her was gray-haired, her eyebrows and her eyes were filled with deep and shallow gullies from life, and the smile on her face was reluctant, faintly flattering.
This person... is Zhou Chengkang's mother.
Zhou Chengkang’s five siblings, he is the third child, and there is a younger sister. His father fell ill shortly after giving birth to the youngest daughter. He died after two years. The family was already poor, and he barely managed to live. Years dragged the family around, but still failed to save it. Qian's claim that Zhou's family is poor is not a lie. Normal girls, no one wants to marry Zhou's family at all.
Zhou Chengkang's eldest and second brothers are still bachelors.
Zhou Chengkang had never said his affection for her in his last life. This should be the biggest reason.
Li Qinghe sighed inwardly, smiled lightly, "Aunt Zhou, it's so early."
Mother Zhou waved her hand, "It's getting late, I'll go back first."
When Li Qinghe reached the ground, she was not busy cleaning up. If she let her own such a large area, she would not be able to cut it down after the year. This kind of wasteland still has roots in it. If it is opened up, the roots must be dug out. After cleaning up the gravel on the ground, even some places are simply big rocks. If you are planting the ground, you will never expect to have a harvest for ten or eight years.
When measuring the land, remember that there is a pond with about two points of land inside. There is living water there, and the excess flows into the small river. There are some small fish, and there are still bold people in the village who will come here to fish.
Li Qinghe originally thought that it was used here to raise fish. There are few live fish in Luoyue Town. They are brought back from outside. The price is the same as pork, but the fish is different from pork. A catty of pork is a whole piece of meat, but fish...a catty of fish has water, internal organs and fish bones. It is more than twice as expensive as pork. Even so, every time there is fish in the market, it will be People robbed.
Looking at the pond, Li Qinghe figured that he would have to find someone to fish out the dead branches and fallen leaves, then repair the edge of the pond before buying fry.
This fish fry, you have to inquire carefully... just as he was thinking about it, footsteps came over behind him, Li Qinghe turned around, and saw Zhou Chengkang hurriedly running, "Do you want to help? You can ask me if you have anything."
Li Qinghe looked at him, watched him lower his head uncomfortably, and said, "Speaking of which I have not given you the money to pick up people who asked you for help a few times before, how much do you want to give you?"
"No need!" Zhou Chengkang refused hurriedly. He hesitated and stopped, finally plucking up the courage, "I don't want money, just want to help you, want to take care of you, I..."
"Qinghe, what are you doing here?" Li Fu's voice came from a distance, and also interrupted Zhou Chengkang's unfinished words.
He quickly arrived, and his unkind eyes fell on Zhou Chengkang, "What are you doing here?"
Li Qinghe answered, "I asked him to help, and I'm calculating my salary." He asked again, "Father, why are you here?"
Li Fu was not angry, "I went home for breakfast, and heard your Aunt Qian said that you ran out by yourself with a knife. I was worried and asked all the way. Your Aunt Qian said earlier that you came out to find someone and I will pay. Do not believe……"
Is this alluding that she ran out after an appointment with Zhou Chengkang?
Since she didn't want to live a good life, Li Qinghe was not polite, "Father, I saw Wanwan's uncle today, and Aunt Qian gave him money."
Li Fu's complexion was hard to look at for an instant, because Zhou Chengkang was here, he didn't say much, his tone was not very good, "There are not many fish here, go home."
Li Qinghe thought for a while and said, "Father, I bought this pond."
Li Fu had already turned around and planned to go home. Hearing this, he turned his head and frowned and asked, "What did you say? What is this pond?"
"It's mine!" Li Qinghe replied sternly.
Li Fu froze for a moment, and realized that Li Qinghe wasn't joking with him, and was furious when she kept saying that she had spent the money, "You can still bear it? What's the use of this pond?"
