Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

The county magistrate and Master Yan took advantage of this opportunity to go and see the newly built school. The two rooms were spacious and bright. It was morning and the children were all at home helping with housework, so there was no one in the whole room.

Yun Jing came in from outside. He would prepare the knowledge he was going to learn in advance every day to facilitate teaching, so he came here often.

When he saw the people in front of him, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Student greets the County Magistrate, and greets the teacher!"

Lu Yunfeng had a favorable impression of Lady Yun's nephew and immediately said with a smile, "This is the new Master Yan. He will be responsible for teaching the children of Qinjia Village. He is very knowledgeable. Yun Tongsheng, you will be taking the college entrance examination soon. You can ask him if you have any questions."

After Yun Jing confirmed who the teacher was, his expression became even more respectful.

Master Yan looked at him with interest. On the way here, Lu Yunfeng had praised Madam Yun from Qinjia Village and her nephew more than once.

"It just so happens that we have some free time now. You and I can discuss this so that we can teach students according to their aptitude in the future."

"Yes!"

Lu Yunfeng did not disturb them, but walked out on his own. Last time, he was in a hurry and did not have time to appreciate the scenery of Qinjia Village. Today, he had some free time and could take a good look at the people's sentiments.

As soon as I went out, I met Yun Zhenzhen coming over with a pot of tea.

"Sir, you must be thirsty after being here for so long. Please have some tea with the Master."

After Lu Yunfeng thanked him, he asked his men to bring the teapot in.

The two men stood in the yard looking at each other in silence. The county magistrate also didn't say anything. He had forgotten that he was going out to see the scenery and just stood there.

Yun Zhenzhen glanced at the sun and said with a smile, "It will be very late after we finish dealing with things. It will take another hour to get back to town. Why don't you and the teacher stay at my house for a simple meal?"

She was just asking casually. After all, the guests were here, so she still had to be polite.

But Lu Yunfeng didn't hesitate at all, and nodded the next second: "Okay!"

Yun Zhenzhen: “…”

The man answered so quickly, as if he was waiting for her to ask.

But the county magistrate cannot afford to let her family suffer. I must have been overthinking it.

Lu Yunfeng glanced at Yun Zhenzhen quietly, scratched the back of his head unconsciously, and then felt that this action seemed not very elegant, so he immediately withdrew his hand and coughed unnaturally.

She didn't think too much about it, she just wanted to eat this meal.

That's why he thought of Qinjia Village the first time he met Master Yan. The master and disciple didn't even have time to reminisce about the past before they rushed over without stopping.

The food cooked by Madam Yun is so delicious that you will never forget it after taking a bite.

……

As soon as she reached the door of her house, she saw the ox cart of the Yaoyue Restaurant parked on the side. Only Zhang Hong was standing there. Manager Xu was not there, so she asked him to deliver a message.

"Our shopkeeper has to go out for a few days for something. I hope Madam Yun can make the blanket first and buy it when he comes back. The price is negotiable. I hope you will wait for him to come back."

Afterwards, he took several bags of food from the ox cart and handed them all to Qin Li. After he finished speaking, he didn't go into the house to sit down, but jumped on the cart and drove back in a hurry.

The business in the restaurant has been very good recently. Since the owner is not here, he has to keep a close eye on it. If Madam Yun's matter was not equally important, he would not have come here in person.

The ox cart jolted out from the main road at the entrance of the village. Seeing this scene, many passing villagers couldn't help but be shocked.

"This Yun sister's business is really growing. In the past few months, ox carts from the big restaurants in the city have come here several times."

"That's right. There's no man in her family yet she's the only one who can live such a prosperous life. Look at how many men there are in the village, none of them can compare to her."

"Oh, if you ask me, it's really not good to be without a man. She is still young, so she can find another one."

A scoundrel in the village who had nothing to do spoke jokingly.

An auntie nearby couldn't stand it any longer and pointed at him, scolding him, "Even if you find another one, she won't be interested in someone like you. At worst, she'll have to be from the city. You'd better give up on this idea."

That man asked for trouble. This aunt was older than him and knew his mother. There was nothing he could say to her or scold her, so he could only leave in shame.

house.

Qin Li carried the large and small bags in and put them away, then asked, "Mom, are we going to continue weaving blankets these few days?"

"Weaving!" Yun Zhenzhen said calmly, "Shopkeeper Xu isn't a man who breaks his promise. I'll just hand the goods over to him when he comes back."

As she spoke, she opened one of the oil-paper wrappers, revealing delicate and beautiful little snacks.

"Master and his friends are in for a treat today. Just bring these snacks to the table."

Qin Li was a little surprised: "Are you going to tear these apart and eat them?"

Yun Zhenzhen continued to untie the hemp rope in her hand, tearing the oil paper in half, picking out a piece of each snack and wrapping them into a stack.

"Pick out each of these and divide them into several portions. Leave the rest for us to eat today, and give the rest to your grandmother and Sister Xiao'e as employee benefits."

"Employee benefits!?" Qin Li stared at his mother in surprise. He had never heard of this term before.

"Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. Your aunt and sisters are doing their best to help us weave blankets, so why don't we share some snacks with them? Everyone can have a taste. If they are happy, they will work harder, and our business will get better and better in the future."

Qin Li nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, an immature idea gradually sprouted in his mind.

Yun Zhenzhen carefully wrapped each dessert with separate oil paper and stacked them together neatly and beautifully. The beige oil paper exuded a sweet fragrance.

In addition to bringing some snacks, Zhang Hong also brought a large piece of stewed meat. He must have added other seasonings to the marinade, and it smelled very appetizing and refreshing.

When eating, just cut it into slices, put it on a plate and start eating.

It seems that the chef of Yaoyue Restaurant is quite capable and can further improve the recipe she gave.

Yun Zhenzhen didn't go when the snacks were delivered. The eldest brother took her there instead. He didn't say anything considerate and was instead teased by the aunts until his face turned red with embarrassment.

Wanniang and Xiao'e, a few familiar people, were fine as they had received snacks before. However, it was the first time for the aunts who came later to receive such things. They were full of surprise and carefully took the oil paper packages into the house, thanking them repeatedly.

I didn't expect that not only would I get a high wage working for their family, but they would also give me delicious food. The food they gave me was some of the most expensive snacks sold in town. This treatment was really good.

Her family was already very happy that she had found such a good job, and now they were even more surprised that she brought back some snacks.

Sugar was very expensive, and farmers at that time were basically unable to afford to buy it to eat. The things wrapped in the oil paper gave off a faint fragrance, and everyone present couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

After all, he is the head of the family, so he had to wait until everyone goes home before distributing the food.
