Xie Jiaojiao came out of Jiang's house angrily...

Steward Wang respectfully escorted the person out.

Xie Jiaojiao left without looking back. Manager Wang turned around and thought that he had to write a letter to the old master...

After Xie Jiaojiao left, Jiang Weinan sat proudly in the main seat in the main hall, finally making that naughty girl suffer a loss in front of him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Weinan felt refreshed both physically and mentally!

"Does the young master really want to marry Miss Xie?" asked the servant next to him.

Jiang Weinan glanced at him and said, "Tiaohu, when did you become so talkative?"

The one called Tigger stopped talking immediately.

Xie Jiaojiao walked back very quickly, her whole face turned red under the sun.

We are almost home.

Xie Jiaojiao immediately suppressed her unhappiness and shouted, "I'm back!"

Xie Zhiyi ran out directly from the kitchen: "Sister, mom is making pancakes!"

Xie Jiaojiao took out a small bag of candy from her bosom and gave it to Xie Zhiyi. Xie Zhiyi immediately took it and ran back happily to light the fire.

When they got to the kitchen, Sun Ruhua said, "I give you money so that you can buy food, but every time you don't buy anything for yourself, you buy everything for this kid!"

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all spent on the family anyway."

Xie Zhiyi said while eating candy: "Sister, this is because she loves me."

Sun Ruhua really couldn't do anything about her, so she said, "Just know that your sister loves you."

Xie Zhiyi hummed.

There happened to be a good pancake in the pot, so Sun Ruhua took one out, put it in the bowl, and let her eat it first.

Xie Jiaojiao quickly took it and ate it. She was really hungry.

"Be careful!"

The pancake flipped twice in Xie Jiaojiao's hand, and Xie Jiaojiao took the first bite: "Mom's pancake is delicious."

Sun Ruhua smiled without stopping her work: "If it tastes good, eat more."

The pancakes were ready in a few seconds and the family sat at the table to eat.

Sun Ruhua only spoke up at this time and asked, "Did they agree to cancel the marriage?"

Xie Jiaojiao took a sip of the cooled rice soup and shook her head: "No, but I should be able to return it. Young Master Jiang doesn't want to marry me anyway."

Sun Ruhua didn't quite understand what was said, but she didn't ask any further questions. If her daughter didn't want to get married, it would be good for her to back out.

"Mom, go to our village this afternoon and pick some soybeans!"

"How much?"

"We'll take as many as we can! Yesterday I went to town and the soy sauce I made was said by Shopkeeper Chen to be better than the one made with fresh meat, and he wanted to cooperate with us!"

When Sun Ruhua heard this, her eyes lit up: "Really?"

Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "So you go and collect more, and I'll buy a few more jars later, and we can make more."

Sun Ruhua nodded quickly: "Okay, but I'm afraid there aren't many soybeans in the village. If it's not enough, I'll go to the next village to get some."

"Thank you for your hard work, mom!"

"What kind of inappropriate words are you saying to a family?"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

After lunch, Xie Jiaojiao went to order a tank and asked Sun Ruhua about the price of the tank before leaving.

There is a pottery kiln next to their village, and the things sold there are not expensive.

It just so happened that the pottery kiln had several large vats in stock, which were ordered by someone else before, so they fired a few extra ones.

Xie Jiaojiao took a look and saw that there were about ten of them. The jar was big, so the price was higher, almost one penny of silver each.

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Master, I don't have enough silver with me. Can you help me deliver it? When I deliver it home, I will pay you back."

The master of the pottery kiln was of course willing to do so, and he happened to have an ox cart, so he harnessed it in no time.

If you can’t deliver it all in one go, you may have to deliver it several times.

When she got home, Sun Ruhua had just harvested soybeans.

Xie Jiaojiao quickly asked Sun Ruhua to take the silver.

After paying the money, the master said, "I will bring it back to you right away when I get back."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Master."

The master waved his hand: "Then I'll go first!"

After finishing all this, Xie Jiaojiao went back to the house to change her clothes: "Mom, pick out the soybeans. The bad ones can be used to feed the chickens. I'll go up the mountain to chop some firewood and steam the soybeans when the time comes."

Sun Ruhua nodded: "Be careful on the mountain."

After saying that, he felt uneasy, so he went to the house to find a bag of powder, put it in a cloth bag, and gave it to Xie Jiaojiao, who hung it on her waist: "This is realgar powder. There are many snakes and insects on our mountain. When you see dense grass, knock it with a wooden stick before leaving!"

Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "Got it."

Xie Jiaojiao went up the mountain and could only find some old tree stumps to cut down trees. After everyone's felling last year, there were not many old tree stumps that could be found, but there were still a few.

I dragged it all back in the afternoon and took a long time to chop it open with an axe. After all, she was a woman!

Prepare to dry it in the yard for two days.

Sun Ruhua had been harvesting soybeans in the village for a day. At first, Sun Ruhua was the one who harvested them, but later she found it too tiring to carry them on her back, so she asked the village chief to inform the villagers that her family was harvesting the soybeans and they should send the soybeans to her house if they wanted to sell them.

After Xie Jiaojiao knew about this, she said frankly that Sun Ruhua's brain was now working very quickly.

It was a rare occasion for her daughter to praise her, and Sun Ruhua was extremely happy!

A pile of soybeans was harvested under the eaves.

Sun Ruhua went to the backyard to dig out some yellow mud and prepared to build a stove specifically for cooking soybeans to avoid being delayed in cooking.

Seeing so many soybeans in the house, Xie Jiaojiao asked Sun Ruhua not to go to other villages to collect them the next day, as there were too many to store at home. She should finish collecting these first. Sun Ruhua agreed, otherwise there would be too many at home.

The family worked for several days, but there was not enough flour and salt at home. Sun Ruhua even went to the town to buy some. She was so heartbroken because making these things required all the precious materials!

By the time all the soybeans were finally put into the jar, almost half a month had passed.

There were more than a dozen levers, but only three were left.

Sun Ruhua looked at the row of ten or so large vats in the yard, rubbed her hands on her apron, and sighed, "All the money in the family is in these!"

Xie Jiaojiao hugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely return the money tenfold or a hundredfold when the time comes!"

The next day, the whole family got up late, which was unusual for them. After all, they had been busy all day for the past month.

Sun Ruhua got up and followed Xie Jiaojiao's instructions and opened the lids of the jars.

People who were going up the mountain passed by their house and looked at the jars in their yard and couldn't help asking, "Are they making food here again?"

Sun Ruhua smiled and nodded: "Yes, I just figured it out."

Everyone strained their eyes but couldn't see what it was, so they didn't ask much and just smiled at each other.

After finishing the work here, Xie Jiaojiao looked at the two acres of sugarcane field on the opposite mountain and thought that it would be nice if winter came soon.

Recently many people have asked them what they are planting in that field!

The reeds don't look like reeds, but they are corn! But there is no corn.

No one in their family answered.

During lunch, Xie Jiaojiao said, "Mom, let's go and tidy up the grass in the sugarcane field this afternoon."

Sun Ruhua nodded, but before she could say anything, she heard someone shouting outside. When Xie Jiaojiao heard it, she thought the voice sounded so much like that of Manager Chen from Qingfeng Tower.

He put down the bowl and hurried out to greet him.

"It sounds like you. I never thought it was really you!"

Shopkeeper Chen had some sweat on his face, and the waiter beside him held an umbrella for him.

"Miss Xie, it's been very easy for Chen to find you!"

Xie Jiaojiao quickly welcomed the person in.

Sun Ruhua quickly poured a bowl of water for each of them.

Fortunately, I listened to my daughter and bought several new bowls.

After the two drank the water, Xie Jiaojiao asked, "Why did Shopkeeper Chen come here today?"

To be honest, at first, Shopkeeper Chen felt a little sorry for what happened between Xie Jiaojiao and his young master, but...

I heard that the other party went to his house to cancel the engagement, but his young master was unwilling to do so!
