Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

"I have a farm in the countryside and several dozen acres of land. I wanted to add more land, but I have no one to take care of it."

Guan Baolai frowned. He had been raised in luxury since he was a child, and he didn't understand this kind of land...

"This time I want to entrust the farm to my brother's family, but my nephew has to go to school, so they will probably live in the city in the future."

"I was thinking, why not find him an assistant to help drive the cart and do some chores, which doesn't require much brainpower."

As Yue Niang said this, Guan Baolai became interested.

Even though he doesn't know how to farm, doesn't he have someone to guide him?

Even if I am not smart, I can always do my job by helping out by running errands and doing some odd jobs.

In a flash, he made up his mind that even if the pay was not high, he would do it as long as he could follow Yue Niang's brother around and learn how to behave.

Looking at Yue Niang, he excitedly expressed his willingness to follow Brother An to drive the cart and do chores, and he would do whatever he was told to do.

Yue Niang was also very happy. Du Wenxiu also spoke up, saying that his wages would be paid under the name of the restaurant. Yue Niang wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Du Wenxiu.

"Brother Guan was deceived before, or he was locked up at home for too long, without a guide."

"Now that Brother An Feng is with him, maybe he will be able to take charge in two years. By then, our restaurant will need someone, but we won't have a reason to do so."

When Yue Niang heard this, she knew what she meant. After thinking about it for a while, she said straightforwardly:

"It seems that Madam Du also thinks that Brother Guan is a talented person. You should learn from my brother. Who knows, this restaurant may need you in the future."

Guan Baolai was flattered for a moment, and felt that he had a bright future. He swore again that he would learn skills from Brother An.

After seeing the brother and sister off, the two men thought for a while and realized that they had more and more people they could use.

"Now we just have to wait for Qiao'er and the others to come over."

Du Wenxiu sighed, but Yue Niang pointed at her clothes. She was shocked to find that a large area of ​​her chest was wet, and she hurried home.

As soon as he stepped into the yard, he heard Haisheng crying loudly. Qi Sanniang and A Luo took turns to comfort him but failed.

When she saw Du Wenxiu come in, she felt like she had seen a savior and hurriedly handed Haisheng into her arms.

Du Wenxiu held the child in one hand and busily undressed with the other. After finally calming the little baby down, she breathed a sigh of relief and sat down to rest for a while.

"Oh, you're getting busier and busier, what are you going to do with this child?" Qi Sanniang and A Luo followed and couldn't help but sigh.

Du Wenxiu thought for a while, and made up her mind: "If it really doesn't work, let's wean the child off the breast."

This sentence shocked the two people: "How can that be possible? The child is just a little old. No way. No way. At worst, I can take the child with you wherever you go in the future."

Qi Sanniang shook her head repeatedly. How could the child grow up well if he didn't get enough milk?

Du Wenxiu smiled bitterly and said, "I'll be so busy from now on that I might not even be able to eat well, so how can I have time to feed him?"

No matter what she said, Qi Sanniang and A Luo kept shaking their heads and discussed taking turns to take Haisheng with Du Wenxiu to ensure their eldest grandson's job.

Du Wenxiu had no choice. Although she felt it was inconvenient, seeing that the two elders were working so hard, she had to go with them.

"Grandma, there's someone outside saying that your aunt is back." The little girl Qiuyun came running to report.

It just so happened that Haisheng was full at this moment, smacking his lips and wanting to sleep. Du Wenxiu handed him to Qi Sanniang to coax him, while tying her clothes and walking out with A Luo.

"I said I didn't know when you would arrive, but now you're here. Why can't I see the child?"

Du Wenxiu came in a hurry to pick up Qiaoer. The two aunt and sister-in-law had not seen each other for a long time. With tears in their eyes, they walked home hand in hand, leaving Fan Chengyi to unload the car with his family.

"Her grandmother said that I was going to work this time, and it would be inconvenient to bring a child with me, so I left her at home and let her take care of her first."

"Once we are settled here, we will bring the three of them over together."

Du Wenxiu nodded and said, "We invited you to come this time, but we are counting on you. Your parents-in-law are really thoughtful. They are afraid that my sister will miss her mother and cry at home."

Qiao Er's face darkened a little after hearing this, then brightened up again:

"What can we do? If we don't think of ways to make things difficult for her, I'm afraid she will suffer even more when she grows up."

Du Wenxiu hurriedly asked what was going on, and Qiao'er sighed and said, "The fourth room's sister-in-law's dowry was meager, and now she wants to marry off her daughter, but the government has even less money, so they can't afford much."

"Before we set off yesterday, I went to help Sister Yan put on some makeup. Seeing those lonely boxes was really heartbreaking."

"Her mother even lost her dignity and cried in front of the grandmother, but it was useless except for adding some laughter to everyone."

Du Wenxiu listened in silence. In this big family, personal ability is more important. Whenever there is an idea or opportunity, people will fight for it even if it means bloodshed.

"Your sister Yue Niang and I have agreed to let you take charge of this workshop. There will be a lot of disputes in the future. Don't worry about the chaos of the Fan family. Just shut yourself up and live your own life."

Qiaoer nodded and said, "My mother-in-law also had this in mind. It turns out that she left because she had no choice. Now she asked the two of us to explore the way first."

Then he lowered his voice again and said, "Looking at the attitude of the court, my parents-in-law also want to come back with us. It's really unpleasant to be stabbed by those servants who are arrogant and incompetent every day at home."

Fan Zhao was originally the magistrate of Dongxing County and had made great contributions to the current emperor's ascension to the throne. Later, he was implicated in Lu Fanghai's affair and had to take sick leave and return home.

He had been honest and upright all his life, and was respected by people outside, so he lived a comfortable life. But this time when he went back, he had no money to pave the way, and his life became unhappy.

"When you two come, you can live in our house first. When you get your dividends, you can buy a yard and bring your parents and children over." Du Wenxiu said with a smile.

"This family is full of women, except for the old man at the gate. There are no men in the family, so I have concerns about hiring more guards."

"It just so happens that there are two rooms over there that can be used to form a small courtyard. You and Chengyi can live there first. Don't feel wronged. I will take you to have a look."

As he was about to turn around, Qiao'er stopped him: "I just got here and haven't seen my nephew yet. Can you take me to see the child first? He won't run away from where we live. There's no time to miss him."

Du Wenxiu was so amused by her words that he had no choice but to take her to the main room first.

When Qiao'er saw Haisheng, she was very surprised. She took out a pair of silver bracelets and put them on the child's hands.

"This kid really looks like my brother. Look at his thick eyebrows and big eyes. His nose and mouth are like yours. I wonder how many girls he will charm in the future."

Du Wenxiu laughed so hard that her body shook: "He is just a little boy, but you can already see his thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he can charm little girls..."
