Chapter 104 It’s raining
In the blink of an eye, it was late July and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. In ancient times, without air conditioning and electric fans, life was like a steamer.
That morning, Shen Wanning opened the window and was greeted by a thick fog. Looking out the window, she couldn't even make out the large trees outside the yard.
She was so happy that she even forgot to put on her shoes. She opened the door and ran out, shouting as she ran, "Mom, it's foggy, it's foggy. It's going to rain."
"Yes, we don't know when it will rain, so I asked the eldest and second sons to set off for the county town early today. It's foggy today, so they have to walk slowly. I hope we can reach the county town before it rains!" said Aunt Zhang.
"Oh, Mom, it's such a bad weather, why are you letting my eldest and second brothers go? They've been busy for so many days and haven't had a break. It's going to rain today, so why not just let them rest at home?"
"I feel uneasy if you don't go with your business. Your mother knows your temper. If you knew, you would definitely go with you. It doesn't matter if two grown men get caught in the rain, but women are weak and cannot catch a cold in the rain." Only then did Aunt Zhang see her bare feet.
"Oh, kid, why did you run out without even wearing shoes? Go back quickly and put on your shoes." He pushed Shen Wanning towards the room.
"It's okay, Mom." Shen Wanning responded with a smile, went back to the house, wiped her feet, put on her shoes and came out again.
After breakfast, the family sat in the main room. Aunt Zhang and Mrs. Wen were sewing clothes, and Shen Wanning was helping Mrs. Xu pick and wash vegetables.
Aunt Zhang knew it was going to rain today and was worried that something might happen to the three little ones, so she didn't let them go to school. They each stayed in their rooms to review their textbooks.
We had not been sitting there for long when, around 8:30, heavy rain began to pour down.
"It's raining, it's raining! Oh my God, it's finally raining." Aunt Zhang put down the needle and thread in her hand and ran to the door to look outside.
Shen Wanning smiled as she watched the rain outside. Great! It was finally raining. The crops were definitely doomed this year, but her business was booming, so she could start planting trees.
Speaking of trees, she suddenly remembered that the cotton she'd asked netizens to help her plant hadn't been planted yet. After the rain, when the soil was moister, she should be able to plant it.
Some villagers were even more exaggerated, running into the rain and cheering loudly.
The rain lasted for three days, and it was not until noon on the fourth day that the sky cleared up slightly.
Because of the rain, the Lin brothers have been staying in the county town these days and have not returned.
As soon as the sky cleared up, each household made an appointment to go to the town to buy vegetables and plant them.
"Mom, I'm going to the county tomorrow. I haven't been there for a few days, so I don't know how business is going. Tomorrow is the last day of July, and I have to check the account book and settle everyone's wages." After lunch, Shen Wanning said while washing dishes with Aunt Zhang.
"Okay, go ahead and bring back some vegetable seeds. It's raining now and I feel refreshed and in high spirits." Aunt Zhang said as she stretched her arms.
"By the way, Mom, now that our milk tea business is doing well, I want to buy another piece of land to plant tea trees. What do you think? In the future, we won't have to buy tea leaves. We can grow our own tea. It's too late to plant rice now. It's better to encourage villagers to plant tea trees and cassava. In the future, we can harvest them directly in the village. What do you think?" Shen Wanning finally found the opportunity to lead Daqing Village to common prosperity.
"But there are so many households in our village. If everyone grows tea, can we use so much?" Aunt Zhang disagreed.
"Don't worry, Mom. Our milk tea shop is doing a booming business now and will surely become famous soon. In the future, we will not only open milk tea shops in the county, but also in Fuzhou and even Beijing. We may not have enough tea by then!" Of course, even if she can't use up all the tea, she can buy it herself and put it in the live broadcast room for a lottery.
"Growing tea is not a quick thing. We have never grown tea before and we don't know how to grow it. We have to ask the head of the village first." Aunt Zhang replied.
"Okay, I'll just discuss it with mom first. There's no rush for this matter. We'll discuss it in detail when I come back next time. But we still have to buy the hilltop. We have to plant some cassava first. The cassava flour in the warehouse is only enough for us for a few months. After October, it's not suitable to plant cassava, so we have to plant it as soon as possible." Shen Wanning thought for a while and replied.
"Okay, after dinner, I'll go with you to find the village headman and we'll buy a hilltop! It's all barren land, so it's cheap to buy it, but it'll be more troublesome to reclaim it later."
"That's not a big deal. We can hire villagers to open up the wasteland later. Besides, we'll also have to hire people to plant tea trees at home. After all, not every household in the village will be willing to grow tea. Those who don't want to plant tea themselves can come and help earn money."
"That's a good idea. If every household in the village makes money, they won't always be obsessed with other people's money." Speaking of this, Aunt Zhang thought of Lin Daqiang. "Well, Lin Daqiang deserves everything he got today. But speaking of that girl Lin Yueliang, she's quite strange."
After Widow Wang had a miscarriage, Lin Daqiang sent her back home. Widow Wang had no choice but to use the money Lin Daqiang had given her to take care of her health. It took her two weeks to recover.
By the time she found Mr. Fang's family in town, the matter was already settled. However, Fang Xiuqin did not become Mr. Fang's daughter-in-law, but instead became his seventh concubine.
Later, Widow Wang went to Lin Daqiang's house every day and argued with him, but they could not reach a conclusion. Lin Daqiang spent the whole day at home beating and scolding Widow Hu, accusing her of killing his son and leaving him without an heir. Originally, Lin Daqiang wanted to divorce Widow Hu and take her home, but in his current state, Widow Wang was unlikely to come and serve him, so he left Widow Hu to take care of him.
As for why Lin Yueliang was considered so strange, it was because after that incident, she had actually gone to live with Chen the Hunter. At night, she would wait outside Chen's house and not return home. After sending her back, she would squat outside Chen's house again. Later, when it rained for a few days, Chen the Hunter had no choice but to let her into his house.
As a result, Lin Yueliang stayed at Chen the Hunter's house and refused to leave. Now she rushes to do laundry and cook for Chen the Hunter every day. Lin Daqiang and Mrs. Hu don't care about her, as if they don't have this daughter.
"Mom, there are still many good people in the village. People like Lin Daqiang are a minority after all. Don't worry, we just need to live our own lives well. As for the matter between Lin Daqiang and Widow Wang, it's their business how they make trouble." Shen Wanning wiped her hands, put her hands on Aunt Zhang's shoulders, and helped her massage her shoulders.
"Oh, it's just a sigh. Okay, the dishes are washed, let's go talk to the village head about buying the hill. Mother never dreamed that she could buy a hill. If you hadn't come and built the brick house, we wouldn't know what to do if it rained these days and we were still living in the old house."
