The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

He finished the bowl of beef noodles, took the silver that Lin Jingyao left on the table, paid the waiter and left.

Although she had eaten, the two dogs at home were still hungry.

After shaking the eighty-eight coins in his hand, Song Yuntang curled the corners of his lips. It was unexpected money after all, and walked towards East Street without hesitation.

I bought two pork shanks for twelve cents, and the uncle selling pork chopped them into two pieces. I also bought three pounds of pork belly for sixty-four cents. I planned to go back and make a braised pork, eat some myself, and take the rest to the farm to improve the meals for the people working there. I also collected the pig offal from the stall today.

Although I have never made it in my previous life, I have eaten it. The key is that this thing is cheap. Pig stomach, large intestine and small intestine, such a big pile only costs ten cents.

At this point, only two cents were left out of the eighty-eight cents in my hand.

She went to the spice shop again and used her last two cents to buy two taels and eight jiao from the shopkeeper. On the way home, she also bought some medicinal materials to prepare the medicated film for Song Mazi.

When he got home, he saw Mu Dong and Song Jinsheng waiting at the door. On the threshold of the courtyard gate were piled bamboo jars that Song Jinsheng brought from the farm.

"Miss Song, you're finally back." Mu Dong said anxiously.

Song Jinsheng also looked her up and down anxiously, "Tang'er, where have you been so early in the morning?"

"I went to buy some meat and herbs to improve everyone's meals." Song Yuntang stepped forward, took the key from his belt and handed it to Mu Dong, asking him to open the door. "Why didn't Mu Dong go to the shop with Mu Qiu this morning?"

"Did you forget, young lady? Today is the day we set for the pills to be put on the shelves. I came this morning, but you weren't at home. As soon as the shop opened, someone came to inquire about it. I had no choice but to ask them to wait and I would come back to get it."

Mu Dong said this, opened the gate, and moved the bamboo jar in with Song Jinsheng.

"Oh! I almost forgot."

Song Yuntang walked in, put the pork on the stove in the kitchen, and then hurried into the house to take out the pills she had prepared and arranged in a basket two days ago.

The Lin family is also used to getting in the way.

She originally remembered this.

The Lin family called her over early in the morning, and this interruption made her forget such an important matter.

Mu Dong took the pills and went to the shop.

Song Jinsheng looked down at the two dogs at his feet that were tearing at his trouser legs. "Tang'er, didn't you feed the dogs this morning? Look how hungry these two little ones are."

He then picked up the two dogs and walked to the water tank, where he gave them some water to drink.

Song Yuntang smiled, cut a small piece of meat and a handful of rice and simmered them in the pot.

"I was delayed this morning by something, so I ate outside. Second brother, please help me fill the big pot with water. I'll boil some medicine first, and then make the big bones and braised pork. I'll give some to Mu Dong and Mu Qiu, and take the rest to the farm to eat."

"it is good."

Seeing that there was not much water in the tank, Song Jinsheng went to Mu Dong's house to borrow a bucket. He first carried two buckets of water to fill the big pot, and then carried four more buckets of water to fill the water tank.

After returning the bucket, he started to boil medicine for Song Yuntang.

Song Yuntang was grinding the medicine film powder prepared for Song Mazi under the eaves.

"Tang'er, why didn't Xu Qingye come today? Is he tired of running around every day?" Song Jinsheng asked in the kitchen. Although he looked calm, he was still a little worried.

After all, Song Yuntang is about to marry Xu Qingye.

In the future, Xu Qingye's physical condition will, to a certain extent, determine whether his sister's marriage will be happy.

Song Yuntang said as he ground the herbs, "I'm worried that his body can't handle it, so I told him to rest at home for a few days."

Song Jinsheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled faintly, "When did my sister become so considerate?"

Song Yuntang glanced towards the kitchen.

"Am I not considerate to my second brother?"

Song Jinsheng laughed, "Of course that's considerate."

She bought him clothes and bedding, and gave him pocket money. He had never met anyone more considerate than his sister.

"Second brother, when the big pot cools down, let's move the pot and some of the herbs to the farm. I'll then sort the herbs out by the amount for each pot, saving you the trouble of running back and forth every day. I can also go over there to help out every day."

Song Jinsheng nodded. "Okay, the yard has been repaired, and the broken tiles on the roof have been replaced for hundreds of dollars. Do you want to smooth the floor? I thought my sister is a particular person, and I'm afraid you won't be used to the dirt floor."

Song Yuntang stopped what he was doing.

"Where did you get the money to buy tiles, brother?"

"I bought the tiles you gave me the day before yesterday and replaced them yesterday afternoon. After that, they really look like the original ones." Song Jinsheng said with a smile.

"If you need anything at the farm, remember to tell me. The pocket money I gave you is for you to spend on yourself. What's the point of buying tiles for me?"

As Song Yuntang spoke, he took out another five taels of silver from the room and gave it to Song Jinsheng.

"Brother, take this money first. We need money to repair the house and lay the bricks on the ground. We also need money to pay the workers' wages for the past few days, the materials for the mountain fence, and the deposit for buying yam seeds."

Song Jinsheng took it.

"I've asked for your yam seeds. Dongming Village has a good harvest in September. Wu Wei said no deposit is needed. After the harvest, he will send you two loads of good quality yam seeds."

I'm afraid two loads of yam seeds won't be enough to grow crops on two acres of land.

"Did he tell me how much one load costs? Two loads is definitely not enough." Song Yuntang asked.

Song Jinsheng was shocked. "Are you going to plant a lot? These yam seeds are not cheap. Wu Wei said that merchants outside buy yam for one tael and eight or nine qian of silver per load. If you want, he can give you a discount and sell it at a cost of one tael and five qian."

Song Yuntang thought for a moment and said, "There are thirteen acres of dry land on the farm. We should plant at least seven or eight acres. You can temporarily agree on four dan of land with him."

"If we pay the full cost of one tael and five cents of silver, I'm afraid they may not agree. After all, their family has worked hard for a year just for this good harvest. Last time I heard him say that the harvest this year is not very good, and their family can only produce eight or nine dan of yam from their two mu of land." Song Jinsheng said.

Hearing this, Song Yuntang raised his eyebrows, wondering if it was a problem with the planting method, the soil, or the yam seed?

She knew a lot about the medicinal fields in her previous life. Among all the medicinal herbs, yam has a high yield.

To a certain extent, it is even not lower than the grain output.

She continued grinding the herbs in her hand. "We can buy the extra at the market price. After all, we only need to buy seeds this time. We can keep them for future use. The rest is all profit."

If the climate is suitable, the yield of yam planted in summer and autumn will be almost twice that of spring planting. If you plant eight or nine acres of land, you should have no problem making a profit of over a hundred taels, even if you sell it to medicinal herb dealers.

By then, we can raise chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep on the farm, and the fertilizer problem will be solved.

It means that some labor costs and time costs will be consumed.
