Soul: At the beginning, the father died, and the eldest and second brothers wanted to separate the f

Under Xie Jiaojiao's arrangement, everyone assigned their tasks in an orderly manner.

Last year, Xie Jiaojiao planted four acres of sugarcane. Her family made a lot of brown sugar from the sugarcane. Xie Jiaojiao estimated based on last year's proportions that it was at least one thousand kilograms!

One pound of brown sugar costs two cents of silver, and one thousand pounds of brown sugar would cost two hundred taels!

What does two hundred taels mean? In a small village like this, as long as the family is healthy, they can almost lie down for the rest of their lives!

Everyone looked at that with envy!

Many people even regretted why they did not take this matter seriously last year!

Next was the village chief's family, which also brought all the sugar to Xie Jiaojiao's place for pressing. The amount of brown sugar they produced was almost the same as that produced by Xie Jiaojiao's family last year.

Because basically every household cultivates two acres of land, the amount of brown sugar produced is about the same.

It took almost half a month to finish the work for everyone's home last year, and that was because there were so many people doing the work.

The warehouse is full of brown sugar!

The families who planted sugarcane saw the sugarcane being boiled into brown sugar, and their faces were filled with smiles. This winter did not seem so cold anymore, and they even thought about how to have a good New Year.

On the day when all the brown sugar was stored in the warehouse, Xie Jiaojiao went to the town. One reason was to deliver fermented bean curd to Shopkeeper Chen, and the other was to discuss the sale of the brown sugar with Shopkeeper Chen so that the villagers who followed him to grow the brown sugar could get the money earlier.

When she went there, Shopkeeper Chen was talking to the merchants about the dry goods in her house!

Xie Jiaojiao happened to bump into him, so Shopkeeper Chen introduced him: "Miss Xie, this is Boss Gao, Gao Shen, a merchant from the north. He goes north and south several times a year. Your dry goods are exactly what he wants!"

Xie Jiaojiao glanced at Gao Shen. He was very strong. It was winter now, and he was dressed like a northerner. His attire was different from theirs, and it looked a bit like the attire of ethnic minorities. He looked like a very honest merchant.

Xie Jiaojiao almost stretched out her hand to shake hands, but then she reacted and immediately bowed and clasped her hands.

"Boss Gao, nice to meet you!"

Gao Shen was stunned by her bow, then he immediately laughed: "Miss Xie is really... um, free and easy."

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "If you have time tomorrow, you can come over to take a look at my batch of goods."

Gao Shen immediately bowed: "Of course, of course."

When Shopkeeper Chen heard him say this, he immediately stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Then it's settled."

Gao Shen nodded in agreement.

Randomly said to Shopkeeper Chen: "The batch of wine you helped me find last time, please help me find some more this time!"

Shopkeeper Chen took his people to sit down, with a look of agreement on his face.

After taking care of Gao Shen, Shopkeeper Chen hurried back to greet Xie Jiaojiao.

The waiter had already taken the fermented tofu to the kitchen, and came out at this moment and returned the backpack to Xie Jiaojiao.

"Shopkeeper Chen, I have already made this year's brown sugar. Do you think your employer will still buy it this year?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shopkeeper Chen nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, if you hadn't come I would have come to find you! Last year's brown sugar sold very well, and I have been wanting to ask you when this year's batch will be available."

Xie Jiaojiao felt relieved when she heard him say that. She smiled and said, "There is a lot of brown sugar this year, about 3,000 kilograms. I wonder if your boss, Shopkeeper Chen, can eat it all? If not..."

"Of course!" Shopkeeper Chen interrupted Xie Jiaojiao.

"Last year, the brown sugar you sold to our boss was not available in many of our shops, so it was sold out in just one or two days. Even if you only had 3,000 kilograms, it would not be enough for our boss to sell."

Shopkeeper Chen had said so, how could Xie Jiaojiao question his words: "Then Shopkeeper Chen, if you are free tomorrow, please arrange for someone to come and pull it."

Shopkeeper Chen responded immediately.

Then he asked, "What about me asking you to expand the scale of soy sauce?"

"Don't worry, there will be enough for you next year."

Shopkeeper Chen then stroked his beard and nodded, then turned around and paid Xie Jiaojiao the money for the fermented tofu.

On the way back, she passed by a stall selling hairpins. She thought that the silver hairpin she bought for Sun Ruhua last time was pawned by Xie Zhili, so she thought about buying another one for Sun Ruhua.

However, I was in a hurry today and did not bring much silver with me. Seeing that the stall was selling cheaply, I spent a few cents to buy a wooden hairpin. This wooden hairpin had a faint woody fragrance. I put it in my arms and saw a stall selling ready-made cloth shoes next to me. Thinking of Sun Ruhua's pair of patched shoes, I estimated the size and bought a pair for Sun Ruhua, Xie Zhiyi, and myself.

After putting the shoes into the backpack and preparing to go back, I turned around and saw Jiang Weinan running on the street being chased by a woman.

It's disgusting, disgusting!

I turned around immediately and pretended that out of sight, out of mind!

Just as he was about to walk away, someone grabbed the backpack.

Xie Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and cursed in her heart: F*ck…

She turned her head speechlessly and met Jiang Weinan. Before she could say anything, Jiang Weinan pulled her around and faced the woman who had just chased her.

The woman was very pretty, but she looked angry when she looked at Jiang Weinan and her.

The woman came up and tried to pry Jiang Weinan’s hand away from Xie Jiaojiao, but she couldn’t pull it apart. She pointed at Xie Jiaojiao and asked Jiang Weinan unhappily, “Who is she?”

Jiang Weinan put his arm around Xie Jiaojiao's shoulders and said to the woman, "Your future sister-in-law!"

Jiang Weinan has a sister? She thought she was one of his lovers. As they were tugging and tugging on the street, Xie Jiaojiao felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. She glanced at Jiang Weinan, who was also staring at her, as if asking her to speak quickly. Xie Jiaojiao had no choice but to force out an awkward smile: "Hello."

The woman in front of him looked completely unconvinced, and said to Jiang Weinan a little aggrieved: "Even if you... you shouldn't just pick up a woman on the street to lie to me!"

"I didn't lie to you. She and I have already set a date for our wedding. Everyone in the Jiang family knows about it. I was planning to tell my family when I go back for the New Year this year."

The woman still didn't believe it. A maid ran up from behind her with something in her hands. As soon as she came over, she bowed to Jiang Weinan and shouted, "My cousin is fine!"

Jiang Weinan said nothing.

Then he called out to the woman in front of him, "Miss?"

The woman in front of her raised her head, glared at Xie Jiaojiao fiercely, suddenly rushed up and pushed her, then ran away.

Xie Jiaojiao looked at it and her eyes turned red.

As soon as she left, Xie Jiaojiao immediately broke free from Jiang Weinan's hand.

The tricks that used to only happen in TV dramas actually happened to her!

Jiang Weinan stared at Xie Jiaojiao awkwardly, touched his nose, and was about to explain when Xie Jiaojiao put the backpack on the ground, then grabbed his hand that had just been around her and threw her over his shoulder.

"Ah... um!" Jiang Weinan fell to the ground.

Xie Jiaojiao clapped her hands and looked at him: "Master Jiang, this is your punishment for being frivolous with me just now!"

Then he turned around and walked away, carrying the basket on his back.

With so many people watching, Jiang Weinan was so angry that his whole body ached. He said to the onlookers, "What are you looking at? I'm engaged to her!" He cursed Xie Jiaojiao in his heart, this stinky girl! He really wanted to teach her a lesson!

But obviously not many people believed him. After all, he was dressed elegantly, while Xie Jiaojiao was dressed like a country girl...
