"That's fine. Ask them when we have dinner later. If they can't help, your father and I can go and help. We are both in good health and can help for a few more years without any problem." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

"How can this keep Mom and Dad busy? They should be enjoying themselves at home. Oh, Mom, I've discussed milking with Sister Xu and Aunt Niu. But the cows are now in the county town. I wonder if they'd be willing to go there and help with the milking."

"Your Aunt Niu has grandchildren to take care of at home, so I'm afraid she won't go to the county town. You can ask your sister-in-law Xu about this. Her two sons are still young, so if you say they want to send them to the county town to study, they should be willing to do so for the sake of the two children." Aunt Zhang analyzed.

"Okay, then I'll go talk to Aunt Niu later and pay her for milking. Then I'll ask Sister Xu if she's willing to go to the county town. They don't have to worry about where she lives." Shen Wanning nodded in response.

"When you go to Aunt Niu's house, bring ten more eggs. After all, you promised her before, and you're afraid she might have some grudges." Aunt Zhang advised.

"Okay, I'll go now." Shen Wanning hurried to the kitchen, took ten eggs and put them in a basket, then went next door.

Before I even reached Aunt Niu's house, I heard a voice coming from there. "Chunhua, wash the vegetables. Don't pour out the water. Save it for washing your feet later."

Shen Wanning paused and called out inside, "Aunt Niu, Aunt Niu."

"Hey, it's Wan Ning! Why are you here at this time?" Aunt Niu came over with the dog Sheng to open the door.

Shen Wanning entered Aunt Niu's house and placed the eggs on the table. "Aunt Niu, do you remember what I told you about milking the cows last time? The five cows we bought have arrived, and I was wondering if you could go to the county to help with the milking. We can provide you with accommodation."

"In the county? Why is this dairy cow in the county? Can't it be raised in Daqing Village like this dairy cow now? The county is too far away." Aunt Zhang frowned, a little anxious.

"Aunt Zhang, I bought too many dairy cows and we can't keep them all in our backyard. Besides, it takes a long time to transport the milk to the county every day, and the bumpy ride will cause a lot of loss, so I simply didn't bring any back." Shen Wanning explained.

"But the dog is kept in the county town, and I can't go there. I still have to take care of Gousheng at home, and when it rains later, I have to farm." Aunt Zhang didn't want to give up this job, but she really couldn't leave.

"That doesn't matter. I will build a workshop in our Daqing Village in the future. It won't be too late to recruit female worker Aunt Niu then." Shen Wanning comforted.

"Build a workshop? How long will that take? Can I do all that work?" Aunt Niu felt a glimmer of hope, but she was more worried.

Shen Wanning sighed, "It all depends on God. It hasn't rained for a long time now, and the water is only enough for us to live on. I can't open this workshop even if I want to."

"You're right. Forget it, let's talk about it later. If my wife were smart, I wouldn't have to take care of my grandson all the time." After saying that, Aunt Niu looked at Chunhua again.

According to Shen Wanning's observation, Chunhua is just an introvert and doesn't like to talk. This is what people on the internet call an "i-person."

"Sister Chunhua is a smart person, but she doesn't like to talk. Every time I come here, I see that Sister Chunhua is very nimble. Many people envy her that Aunt Niu has such a virtuous daughter-in-law." Shen Wanning comforted.

"By the way, Aunt Niu, thank you for helping me milk the cows these days. I'll pay you the wages we agreed on at the beginning." After saying that, Shen Wanning took out one or two taels of silver and put them on the table.

Aunt Niu opened her eyes wide, "Why is it so much? We agreed that milking two cows would only cost 40 cents a day, and I'm only milking one cow. How can I get so much in less than a month?"

"Aunt Niu, you've worked hard these days. Besides, the milking I told you about before didn't happen in the end, and I feel bad about it. Please accept it. And these ten eggs are for Gousheng to nourish his body." As she spoke, Shen Wanning pushed the basket forward.

"What are you talking about? It's me who can't go to the county town, not you who won't let me milk the cows. You should take these eggs back. Since you've given me so much silver, I'll still go and help with the milking every day. When you take the cows to the county town, I won't go anymore."

Shen Wanning nodded. "Thank you very much, Aunt Niu. I still have to go and tell Sister Xu that I won't stay long."

With that, she stood up and prepared to leave. Actually, she was planning to take the cow to the county town tomorrow. She wouldn't be selling milk tea tomorrow, but would take the cow to the county town and prepare for the opening of the milk tea shop.

When we arrived at Mrs. Xu's house, she was busy in the kitchen preparing meals, and her two children were squatting in the yard playing in the mud.

"Mrs. Xu." Shen Wanning saw that the courtyard door was not closed, so she went in and shouted.

Mrs. Xu wiped her hands on her apron and came out. "Wan Ning, why are you here? Have you eaten yet? Do you want to eat at our house?"

Shen Wanning shook her head. "Thank you, Sister Xu. I came here today to talk to you about milking. The cows I bought have arrived, and I plan to place them in the county. I just wanted to ask Sister Xu if I could go to the county to help with the milking. Don't worry about where to live. I've already bought a farm, and your family can move in."

"That won't work. We still have so much land at home that no one is cultivating. We can't let it go to waste. We also have some vegetables." Mrs. Xu refused directly.

Lin Dashun came in from outside carrying firewood, put it in a corner, drank a bowl of water, and walked over here. "Hey, why is the daughter of the old Lin family here?"

"Brother Shunzi, it's like this. I want to hire Mrs. Xu to go to the county town to help with milking. You and your family can all go, and Brother Shunzi can help look after the cows and help manage the farm at the same time, okay? As for wages, I'll give you and your wife eight taels of silver a month. I'll also arrange accommodation for you, so you don't have to rent a house. You can consider it." Shen Wanning continued.

Lin Dashun sat down next to Mrs. Xu. "It's not impossible. The salary is much higher than in the town or the county. But I have lived in Daqing Village for a long time, and I might not be used to moving to a new place. We still need to think about it."

"Okay, then let me tell you about the situation first. My farm is very close to Bailu Academy. If you go there, you can send your two children to study. When your business is doing well later, I will also increase your wages." Shen Wanning continued to offer temptation.

Mrs. Xu and Lin Dashun exchanged a glance, and Mrs. Xu replied, "But we can't plant crops right now. We'll just be milking your cows and looking after them. Isn't that too much money?"
