A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

As soon as the food was served, the five men who had been working came back.

While eating, Shen Qingqian said, "Aunt Cuiyun, for the next period of time, Daqiang and the other three will have to eat at your house. I will buy the food, and I will pay you 15 cents a day. Is that okay with you, Auntie?"

Wu Cuiyun's family hasn't had meat for half a year. Now they are eating braised pork and white rice. You can't tell how they feel!

She quickly said, "Qing Qian, you just need to buy food for the four of them. I have to cook every day anyway, so I'll do it for free."

Shen Qingqian said: "How can that be possible? There are only four of them now, but we will need to add more people in the future. I am afraid that you can't do it alone!"

When Wu Cuiyun heard this, she asked, "Qingqian, do you still need to hire someone?"

Shen Qingqian nodded and said, "Well, there are too few people and the work is slow. We have to hire at least seven or eight more people!"

"Qingqian, do you have any requirements when recruiting people?" Wu Cuiyun asked.

Shen Qingqian said: "As long as you are willing to do your job, I don't have any other requirements. Aunt, do you have a suitable person?"

Wu Cuiyun said, "It's my oldest nephew, he's nineteen this year, he's an honest kid, and he's quite strong."

Wu Cuiyun's sister-in-law said, "Cuiyun is talking about the boy from my family. If you think it's okay, I'll ask him to come over tomorrow."

Shen Qingqian liked this dark-faced aunt very much, and thought that her son would not be much worse, so she said, "Okay, let him come to work directly tomorrow, and the day's wages will also be fifteen cents."

After dinner, Shen Tiezhu, Daqiang and others went out to work again.

Shen Qingqian took Yingzi to the Li family's house. When passing by Shen Dakuan's house, they happened to meet Shen Jiao and Shen Mei.

It looked like the two were about to go out. Seeing Shen Qingqian, Shen Jiao was like a victorious rooster, and said proudly: "Is it Second Sister who is back? I haven't seen you for a long time. You are back just in time. Brother Xiuwen and I are going to get married on the eighth day of next month. You must come to the wedding banquet then."

After Shen Jiao finished speaking, she observed Shen Qingqian's expression, hoping to see resentment and jealousy on her face.

Unfortunately, she was destined to be disappointed.

Shen Qingqian looked at her with a half-smile and said, "But we are no longer related now. In what capacity should I attend your wedding?"

Shen Jiaoqiao smiled and said, "Second sister, we have invited almost everyone in the village! You can just come over when the time comes."

Shen Qingqian didn't have the time to attend their wedding! Gao Xiuwen was an ex after all, and when she showed up at their wedding, people thought she couldn't let go!

She said: "I am very busy now and I can't waste my time on irrelevant people, so I won't go."

Shen Jiao didn't expect that she would refuse so bluntly, and taunted: "Second sister, you are not afraid that you can't bear to see us get married, right?"

Shen Qingqian rolled her eyes and said, "How could that be? I've said it before, you two are a match made in heaven! If you two are together, you won't come out to cause trouble to others again!"

Shen Jiao was so angry that she could hardly hold back her anger. She gritted her teeth and said, "Second sister, I hope you really think so!"

Shen Qingqian said: "Of course, I always say what I think, unlike some people who always like to pretend to be innocent, and I don't know if they are tired or not!"

Seeing that Shen Jiao was silent, Shen Mei could not help but said, "Didn't you cut off ties with us? Why did you come back? Our family does not welcome an unruly woman like you!"

It turned out that Shen Mei thought she had returned to the Shen family! However, how dare you say that a woman like Shen Mei is not decent?

Shen Qingqian jokingly said, "Improper? Shen Mei, you are talking about yourself, right? Xu Shan touched you all over, I saw it with my own eyes! If you want to talk about improper, it should be you who is improper!"

Shen Qingqian spoke without reservation, and Shen Mei was so angry that her face turned red and she almost fainted.

"Shen Qingqian, you bitch, didn't you promise not to bring this up again?"

Shen Qingqian said: "I have never mentioned it before! But who told you to be so mean? You always like to provoke me and say things that make me unhappy!

I have a problem. When I get angry, I will speak without restraint. Shen Mei, what do you think I should do? So, next time you see me, it’s better to take a detour! "

"you!"

Shen Mei stomped her feet and ran back to the Shen family yard angrily.

Shen Jiao glared at Shen Qingqian unwillingly and followed her back.

Shen Qingqian shrugged and took Yingzi to Li's house.

Xiuxiu was washing dishes in the kitchen. When she saw Shen Qingqian, she put down her work, wiped her hands on her apron, and said, "Qingqian is here, come in and sit down, Dad and Mom are all in the house!"

"Okay, Sister Xiuxiu, I'll go in first."

Shen Qingqian greeted her and walked into the house.

Uncle Shen Fukui was sitting on the kang smoking a cigarette, while Li was mending an old piece of clothing, and the two were chatting about random things.

"Uncle, aunt, I'm here."

As soon as Shen Qingqian entered the door, she took the initiative to say hello.

Shen Fukui put down the pipe in his hand and said with a smile: "It's Qingqian girl. Come on, come on, sit on the kang with the girl you brought with you."

Shen Qingqian looked around the room. Apart from two bamboo baskets and a broken cabinet on the ground, there was not even a stool. Indeed, the only place to sit was the kang.

Shen Qingqian straddled the edge of the kang, with one leg bent and the other hanging down.

Yingzi stood beside her and had no intention of sitting down at all.

Li stood up and poured them two glasses of boiled water.

Shen Qingqian asked: "Cousin Cheng Gang is not at home?"

Shen Fukui said: "After lunch, I went up the mountain to chop firewood.

When Shen Qingqian just came in, he saw more than a dozen bundles of firewood piled up in the yard. Why did he still go to chop firewood?

She couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, there is so much firewood in the yard, isn't it enough?"

Shen Fukui said, "We're going to push those on a cart to the town to sell them. They're two cents a bundle. When we have ten bundles, we'll go once."

"How many bundles of firewood can we chop in a day?" Shen Qingqian asked.

Shen Fukui said, "If Cheng Gang chops by himself, he can probably cut four bundles a day. I plan to go up the mountain this afternoon as well, and I can probably cut two bundles in the afternoon."

The father and son had to chop six bundles of firewood a day and push them to the town to sell. It was hard work and they earned little. Life was indeed not easy!

Shen Qingqian said: "Uncle, I bought ten acres of land in the village a few days ago, did you know?"

Shen Fukui shook his head and said, "I've never heard of this uncle, but it's right to buy some land now that you have money."

Li also said: "Ten acres of land is not a small amount. You sisters are really promising!"
