Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming

The flickering red candles illuminate the beauty in red, while the lady leans shyly beside you. The brocade curtains hang low, filling the tent with fragrance, and we spend the night together in great joy.

The two looked at each other with affection, smiled softly and whispered their tender feelings. Their ears rubbed each other's ears, their hearts were moved, and their love was so strong that it intoxicated their hearts.

The groom gently caresses the bride's skirt, and her face glows. The wine we drink together warms our love, and this night of love will be the beginning of our years.

Outside the window, the moon hangs on the willow branches. Inside the room, the spring breeze is warm and the phoenixes are flying. We fall asleep in each other's arms and watch the sun rise together tomorrow.

After a night of passionate love, Xu Baoru actually slept past the hour the next day.

When she woke up, she kept blaming Tan Chun for making too much noise at night and not knowing how to call her to pay her respects to the elders at home late.

Tan Chun said, "My lady, it's alright. My lady told me that people in the countryside don't care about such things. They knew you were very tired yesterday, so they told me not to call you."

Xu Baoru felt even more ashamed when she heard this. Her mother-in-law asked her to forgive her, but how could she be so rude?

After quickly packing up, the two went to the main house.

The Tan family's house was newly built, with two courtyards. Although it was not as exquisite as those in the city, it was neat and tidy.

When the two arrived, all the members of the Tan family were there, including Tan Yueli, Yueya and others.

Originally, according to the rules, the two of them were not allowed to be in the hall, but Tan Tianyi insisted on having them by his side.

Xu Baoru bowed and served tea to the elders in the family in turn, and then greeted everyone else.

After finishing all this, Qing Ning took out a brocade box and gave it to her.

"Cousin, this was given to me by Grandma Ming when she left yesterday, and she asked me to pass it on."

Xu Baoru was stunned for a moment. Who was this Grandma Ming? She didn't dare to answer.

Seeing her like this, Qing Ning stuffed it into her hand and said with a smile, "Cousin, take it."

Xu Baoru took it and thanked him with a smile.

After returning to the room, Xu Baoru opened the brocade box and found a household registration book inside.

She had some guesses about the engagement in her mind, and her hands were shaking for a moment.

After watching it, I couldn't help but shed tears.

Tan Chun brought in some food, worried that Xu Baoru was hungry, but when he saw her like this as soon as he entered the door, his heart tightened.

"What's wrong with Ru'er? Why are you crying? Are you missing your parents?"

Xu Baoru couldn't hold back her tears for a moment. She didn't answer his questions but just kept crying.

Tan Chun put down his food, hurriedly sat next to Xu Baoru, and gently hugged her to comfort her.

After a long time, she finally stopped crying. Tan Chun said distressedly, "What happened? What made you unhappy?"

Xu Baoru said in a muffled voice: "No, I'm very happy, look at this."

Tan Chun took the book and paper handed to him by Xu Baoru, took a closer look, and was surprised and happy.

"Is this true? Baoru, is this true?"

He was even more excited than Xu Baoru.

"Yes, it's true. Qing Ning just gave this to me. It was left by the Fifth Madam."

"That's great, that's great, Baoru is so good. From now on, you are just Xu Baoru, my wife, Tan Chun."

"Yes, from now on I will just be Xu Baoru."

The two hugged each other, crying and laughing.

After dinner, Tan Yueli and the others said goodbye and went back. Old Man Tan wanted to keep them for a while, but he had a lot of things to do at home and couldn't keep them any longer.

After learning about what Xu Bao had done, the Tan family was happy for her and for Tan Chun as well.

On the third day, when the Xu family returned home, when they saw the paper book, they immediately drove to Chenjia Village.

The Chen family was quite surprised when they saw them coming.

Manager Xu brought his men and kowtowed three times to Ming Miaoren earnestly.

It was not until this time that everyone realized that it was Ming Miao who released Xu Baoru from her indenture and restored her freedom.

This is a grace given to them. As the master, I am truly kind-hearted. For them, this is something they cannot do without even giving up.

What a perfect happy event, everyone is happy.

After being busy with housework, there is no time to rest for a moment with work in the fields.

All crops are ripe and everyone is busy harvesting.

It was the first year of cotton planting, and everyone was finally relieved when they saw the results.

Qing Ning asked the villagers to make all the preparations early in the morning, and each of them carried a large cloth bag on their backs.

Qing Ning explained and re-explained the precautions for picking cotton.

Make sure the cotton is intact and not dirty or broken, so that more cotton seeds can be collected.

In the cotton fields, men, women, young and old were all busy, and everyone wore a cloth towel on their heads to prevent cotton wool from getting on their hair.

Bending down, holding the plump cotton boll branches with one hand, and picking the cotton neatly with the other hand, each one of them was both careful and excited.

The person following behind carefully picked up the leftover cotton and put it into the cloth bag on his back.

Qing Ning looked at these acres of cotton and was very excited. She picked a flower and looked at it again and again, as if she had seen the cotton become all kinds of fabrics and warm clothes.

The cotton pickers today are those who work the most carefully and efficiently in the village, and the villagers are gathered around the field, watching carefully.

"Lime, can these cottons really keep you warm?"

Old Master Yu looked at the cotton in his hand, which was so light it couldn't be any lighter, and still couldn't believe it.

Qing Ning nodded affirmatively, "Yes, we can. We pick these cottons and comb them carefully to remove the seeds. Then we dry them in the sun and fluff them until they are soft. We can then make quilts and clothes, and spin yarn and weave cloth."

"Mr. Yu, if Qing Ning says it's possible, it's definitely possible. This cotton from the Western Regions can be made into cloth and is worth a thousand gold coins a piece. Since Qing Ning can recognize it and can also grow it, you can't go wrong if you trust her."

Zhao Sitian told Mr. Yu not to worry, Qingning was definitely right, and he was now extremely convinced of Qingning.

"Be careful, be careful, don't get it dirty." Zhao Sitian's eyes were always fixed on the people picking cotton in the fields. These were all treasures!

Several acres of cotton were harvested in one day, and no one felt tired.

The next few days were spent preventing the villagers from carrying out preliminary processing of the cotton.

Impurities are manually picked out to ensure the cotton is neat and clean, and then it is dried in the sun. The villagers are afraid that insects and birds will stay there, so they have people watching it all the time.

Nowadays it is not as convenient as it was in later generations. Qing Ning had already asked someone to make a cotton comb for removing the seeds according to his memory some time ago. Since there was no machine, he could only comb the seeds manually bit by bit to remove them.

This was a huge project. It took a group of people three days just to comb the cotton and extract the seeds.

After the cotton seeds are removed, the cotton fluffing process begins.

Although Qing Ning has seen a lot of them, he has never made one himself.

Even the cotton-fluffing tool she made was something she had thought about and tried to make, and had not yet been tested.

"Master Qin, you can use this to flick the cotton later, like this."

Qingning is small, so he just demonstrated it for the sake of convenience. The actual operation still requires Master Qin to control and explore it himself.

Master Qin was the master hired by the Xu family. Although she had first-class skills in brocade weaving and dyeing, she had never done this before.

"I'll try." Master Qin was nervous and only dared to try it carefully.

"Dong, Dong, Dong~~~~"

After a few flicks, the cotton puffed up like flying catkins.

"Yes, yes, that's it, Master Qin."

It is said that a master is a master because of his understanding and action.

Master Qin gradually got the hang of it, and everyone gathered around him, staring at him until he made a correct move.
