Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times
Chapter 85 Encounter
It turned out that she only remembered it when she saw A Luo.
The farm is actually not small, and there is a yard at the back that has not been used. A Luo just grows some flowers, plants and vegetables there when he has nothing to do, but it's still short, so nothing can be seen yet.
"Why not build a warehouse in the backyard and let the recruited workers come here to do the work. There are only Old Wu and his wife in the front yard, and there are no men inside, so we don't have to worry about gossip."
Yue Niang shook her head and disagreed: "Xiuniang, you only considered their reputation, but did not consider your own family's safety."
Since ancient times, human hearts are hard to predict. It’s okay if the time is short, but if it goes on for a long time and everyone knows that they make money, it’s inevitable that some people will have bad intentions.
There is not even a strong man here, which really puts the farm and A Luo in a dangerous situation.
After hearing her say this, Du Wenxiu thought that he had misunderstood.
"But your idea does make sense. It's nothing more than separating the male workers and female workers, which is not a difficult task." Yue Niang said with a smile.
"To put it bluntly, I didn't make good arrangements beforehand, and let Qiu Yong lead people to move things into the workshop."
"From now on, I will only let female workers work in the workshop. If I need to deliver goods, I will select a few strong and sturdy women to move the jars out, and then the male workers will carry them away."
Du Wenxiu nodded with a smile.
She wanted to speak directly, but was afraid of hurting Yue Niang's face, so she decided to propose an idea and let her refute it. She was not a stupid person and would understand it immediately.
"Come, try my cooking and see how it compares to what you made."
Yue Niang stood up and scooped some fish fillets with a spoon and put them into Du Wenxiu's bowl.
It was only then that A Luo realized that the workshop they ran mainly recruited women, so he hurriedly asked around and wanted to go over.
"Even if A'luo doesn't go to work, Xiuniang won't let you starve. It's better for you to look after the farm with her." Yue Niang said frankly.
A'Luo laughed awkwardly. Du Wenchan, who was watching from the side, felt a little distressed and quickly picked up an egg for her with chopsticks.
After Qiu Yong finished his meal, he was about to go out. Yue Niang also hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks, and asked him to come back in the evening. Then she followed Qiu Yong, wanting to put into practice what she had just said as soon as possible.
"Yue Niang is a straightforward person. If she says something unpleasant, please don't blame her, aunt." Du Wenxiu noticed A Luo's expression.
After Yue Niang and her husband left, she stood up and put some food into A'luo's bowl, comforting her.
Ah Luo hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, since I came to the farm, Yue Niang has taken good care of me. How can I blame her?"
Du Wenxiu lowered his head to eat and said nothing more.
A Luo put away the dishes and went to the kitchen to busy himself, while Du Wenxiu kept her sister to talk.
"It was my negligence that I forgot that Auntie should also have monthly allowance. You know the situation at home, and I can't give out more..."
Du Wenchan said hurriedly, "Sister, what are you talking about? You have been the one who has paid for my and my aunt's food, clothing and expenses. How can we ask for any monthly allowance? Aunt was just curious and asked a question in vain. Sister, please don't mention it again."
Du Wenxiu shook her head and smiled, "It's because we are a small family that we can't think of these things. Even in those big families, not everyone has a monthly allowance. Even if you get married in the future, you should have your own private money. I saw that A Luo asked about the workshop, I'm afraid it's for your sake."
Du Wenchan looked as if her tail had been stepped on, and her face was somewhat unhappy:
"Sister, I've even boarded that flower boat, and I've given up the idea of getting married. Please don't mention it again. If you don't like me being idle at home, you can send me to the farm to keep my aunt company."
Du Wenxiu had not expected such a big reaction from her. After a pause, she said, "Why bother to dwell on the matter of the flower boat? It's not you who wanted to get on it. If you meet a good family, you will still marry her."
But Du Wenchan sat down on the chair, put her arms on the back of the chair and rested her chin on the top.
"Sister, where can I find a good family to stay with? I know my own business. I am just waiting for you to give birth to a child and then I will take good care of the child for you."
Du Wenxiu sighed and didn't know how to comfort her.
Du Wenchan looks weak, but she has her own ideas, otherwise she wouldn't have come to me about A'Luo being sold.
It’s just that these people are smart about other people’s affairs, but confused about their own affairs.
It’s not that I don’t want to support her, but in this era of moral principles, how can I survive if I lose my reputation?
"Don't worry, I won't force you to get married, but if there is a good family, we can't refuse. OK?"
Du Wenxiu patted her back gently and spoke tenderly.
"Qiao'er said at the beginning that she would live with us for the rest of her life. Now she is the young mistress of the Fan family. You can see for yourself how she is doing."
Du Wenchan was also familiar with Qiao'er, so after hearing her say this, she couldn't help but feel less resistant.
When A Luo entered the room and saw the two of them, he thought Du Wenchan was angry with her grandmother and must have said something to her.
Du Wenxiu started to explain, and she thought it was her way of making up for Du Wenchan out of sisterly love. Du Wenxiu had no choice but to smile at Du Wenchan and got up to go out.
Since she was pregnant, Du Wenchan didn't dare to let her wander around alone, so she had to follow her.
There was no air pollution in ancient times. Now the weather is gradually getting cooler, and the fields are full of farmers harvesting winter wheat.
Du Wenchan had never seen her before. She said that she was walking with Du Wenxiu, and soon her attention was attracted by the woman who was planting seeds.
She ran over to see people sowing seeds. A man was digging a hole with a hoe. The hole was neither deep nor shallow, about an inch deep.
The women planted the seeds, one hoeing and the other planting them. After a while, Du Wenchan, who was following them, had sweat on her forehead.
Du Wenxiu laughed at her. The people who were working hadn't said anything yet, but the people who were just watching the fun were already tired.
Du Wenchan felt a little embarrassed, so she ran over and helped her walk slowly on the ridge of the field.
At this time, someone shouted: "Is that Lu's sister-in-law over there?"
The two looked in the direction of the voice, but they couldn't see the man's face clearly under the scorching sunlight. Du Wenxiu responded, "Yes, may I ask who this gentleman is?"
The man came over here with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and Du Wenchan was a little nervous.
Du Wenxiu patted her hand and said with a smile, "It's broad daylight, there are so many people here, what are you afraid of?"
Only when I got closer could I see it clearly.
"Oh, it's Master Zhu. What a coincidence that you come to the fields to watch as well." Du Wenxiu greeted him warmly.
Young Master Zhu glanced at Du Wenchan and hurriedly greeted the two of them seriously.
"From a distance, she looks like Sister-in-law Lu. I wonder when she came. Why can't I see Brother Lu?"
Seeing that he was polite, Du Wenxiu smiled and said, "He was busy with his work, so he just dropped us off and left."
Although they were neighbors, Master Zhu had no idea what Lu Fanghai did for a living. He only heard that the pickle and bacon business run by the Lu and Qiu families was very prosperous.
"Although it is autumn now, the heat is still very strong. If you don't mind, sister-in-law and sister, I brought some water to quench your thirst."
Du Wenxiu looked back and realized that the two of them had walked so far without realizing it.
Now that someone has invited me, I can't be too hypocritical, so I said generously: "In that case, I'm sorry to bother you, Master Zhu."
