This day, when Fu Yao walked out of her room and saw Zhen Niang carrying a hoe and was about to go out, he hurriedly called out: "Where are you going? "Come in for a meeting?"
"No need, I still need to go harvest some wheat. I'm the only one in my house now, and I'm afraid it will rain soon, and then it'll be over." Zhen Niang answered truthfully.
This land was planted when her father was in good health, a total of ten acres. Her father couldn't do farm work, and her mother couldn't go down to the ground. If there wasn't a heavy burden, then it would fall on her, and she would be the only one left in the house.
Fu Huang looked back at the men who had nothing to do, and immediately grabbed Zhen Niang's hoe back with a smile, "You can only skin and flesh, how can you live on the ground?"
"It's fine, I used to work here as well."
"Aiyo, just listen to me and don't go. Don't worry, I'll settle it for you."
"I'm so sorry." Zhen Niang shook his head. Although Fu Yao's family had no land and a few strong men lived in her house, but she still felt embarrassed.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? It's an equal exchange, help me make some clothes."
"This …"
"Then it's decided." Fu Yao said straightforwardly, and then shouted towards the house: "Xiao Ming Yuan, Feng Man Lou, and Ren Yun Xing, the few of you come out."
The three men came out confused. They looked at each other, and after hearing what Fu Yao said, Xiao Ming Yuan shook his head and said, "I won't go.
"If you don't want to go, then get out." Fu Yao frowned, making it difficult for him to speak, causing him to be unable to do so.
Fu Yao raised her chin, and pointed at Feng Man Lou: "What about you? "Should we go?"
"Go, go, of course we have to go, how can Zhen Niang's family not work for me?" Feng Man Lou tactfully agreed. As a joke, if he didn't agree, Fu Yao would definitely be threatened.
I might as well agree to it.
"Husband, what about you?"
"Since my wife has already opened her mouth, how can my husband not agree?"
In the afternoon, Fu Yao and Zhen Niang sat under a tree above the fields, drinking tea and chatting. Ren Yun Xing slept at home, Feng Man Lou went up the mountain to hunt for prey, in short, he was very, very busy.
"Why don't I go as well?" Zhen Niang felt a little embarrassed to see Xiao Ming Yuan working alone in the field.
The way he brandished his sickle was not very familiar.
"You don't need to go, and he'll reap the harvest in just a few acres." Fu Huang blew on the hot tea, and looked at Xiao Ming Yuan coldly.
He had been gone for so long, but his young master's temper still hadn't changed.
Zhen Niang looked at Xiao Ming Yuan with sympathy and shook her head.
"Damn, she definitely did it on purpose, on purpose." Xiao Ming Yuan was so angry that he used his sickle to vent his anger. Damn it, if he did not agree to Fu Yao's request, I will let him go back.
How could he let his brother come personally? He still hadn't investigated whether Ren Yun Xing and Ren Yun Xing were truly married or not.
However, cutting wheat was much more tiring than training.
That night, Xiao Ming Yuan was sitting lazily at the table with his arms hanging down. He couldn't even hold up his chopsticks. Feng Man Lou on the other hand, looked like he was watching a good show.
"Second Young Master Xiao, how is life in the countryside?"
"Very good!"
"That's good. I'll dig a ditch tomorrow. Let's go together."
"I'm not going!" Xiao Ming Yuan immediately shook his head. Cutting wheat was already tiring enough, he couldn't imagine digging a ditch.
"Sister-in-law, look, there's someone rearing a leisurely meal at home." Feng Man Lou pointed from afar and sighed.
"You go with me tomorrow."
"Me!" Xiao Ming Yuan could only swallow his anger under Fu Yao's attentive gaze.
After being trampled on by Xiao Ming Yuan for three to four days, he knew that Fu Yao wanted him to leave quickly. The more it was like this, the more he would not leave, and the more he would do farm work, wouldn't he?
What a small matter!
Xiao Ming Yuan was not tormenting him at all, and one of the most important reasons was that his family really didn't have much work to do in the field.
One day, Fu Yao entered the door and saw A Xi squatting on the floor, reading the Three Character Classic.
Fu Yao didn't know what to do with this child. No matter what she said, A Xi kept his head down. He busied himself in the courtyard everyday, but in reality, he did not have much work to do.
"Do you like reading?" Fu Yao picked up the Three Character Classic on the ground. A Xi's startled look made her sigh.
Could it be that she had a fierce look on her face?
"No, I don't like it." A Xi shook his head like a rattle drum, deeply afraid that Fu Yao would misunderstand him.
"Ah, if you don't like it, then forget it." Fu Yao placed the book on the table and walked out. This was not the first time she had seen A Xi reading this book.
The next day, Fu Yao installed some red wine in her mouth, planning to pay a visit to the Mr. Liu. As he was unable to buy back the white grapes, even if she wanted a few notes, it would be good.
She purposely went up to A Xi.
Before they even entered the school grounds, they heard the clear sounds of someone reading. Fu Yao stood at the door and explained her purpose for coming here, only then did the doorman let him in. Through the window, Fu Yao could see Fu Feng shaking her head and looking at A Xi who had an envious expression.
He couldn't help but shake his head. Women like to say things that are different from their heart. Did children like to say things too?
After class, a bunch of kids rushed out, and when Fu Feng saw them, he immediately ran out.
"Sis, why are you here?"
"Of course it's to see if you can study properly." Fu Yao took out a bag of pastries and gave it to him.
"Is there even a need to look at it? I will definitely study hard. "
The two talked for a while, before Fu Yao went to look for Mr. Liu. He was drinking tea, and when he saw Fu Yao come over, he asked the doorman to bring him a cup of tea.
"You must be Fu Feng's father. Fu Feng performed very well here, but in a circle, he is a person that can be created." Mr. Liu praised Fu Feng extremely well. He had seen many well-studied children, but rarely had he seen such a talented child.
"This is all thanks to mister's good teaching. For the sake of thanking mister, I specially brought some of the wine that I brewed, mister has accepted it with a smile." Fu Yao placed the jar on the table.
"I don't accept the gifts of the parents, you should take it back." Mr. Liu shook his head and refused.
"Sir, this is not a gift from me as a parent, but a wine friend. I know that Sir likes to drink a few cups, and the reason why I'm here this time is to ask Mister for something."
"This …"
"Mr. Liu, this is the wine I brewed with grapes. Try it first and see if it suits your taste." Fu Yao took the initiative to pour a cup of wine in front of Mister.
Looking at the red wine, Mister couldn't help lowering his head to take a sniff. There was actually such a wine?
He stretched out his hand and stopped again. He swallowed his saliva and asked, "Tell me, what do you need me for?"
"It's not a big deal. I found out that there are white grapes in Teacher's house, I just wanted …"
"You want it too?" Mr. Liu frowned, he doted on the white wine like it was a treasure, and no one dared to touch it.
But this red wine?
"I just want to ask Mister for a few branches. I definitely won't destroy Mister's vines."
"If you want a branch, you've already destroyed my vine. What do you want a vine for?" Mr. Liu's tone was harsh.
"Cutting vines into the soil will produce new plants. I want to grow white grapes."
"Vines can be cut?" How could it be possible? He had grown white grapes for four to five years, but he had never heard of such a thing.
"Of course."
"No, I don't agree. If that's what you want, then please go back." Mr. Liu turned around and ignored Fu Yao.
After all, in the East Mausoleum, there were very few varieties of White Grape. Even if there was one, it would be very hard to support it, and the environment here was not suitable for the growth of White Grape. This was precisely the reason why Fu Yao wanted the White Grape even more.
The survival of the fittest is the best.
"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Mister. I'll keep the wine. Actually, the white grapes can brew a better wine than this wine." Fu Yao left with the bow wielder.
The revolution needs hard work.
After Fu Yao left, the Mr. Liu immediately turned around and looked at the red wine with her beard covering her body. After all, she still took a sip, and her muddy eyes widened.
Looking at Fu Yao's figure, she hugged the jar of wine and sniffed it fiercely.
Fu Yao walked out of the door and saw A Xi looking through the academy's window. He called out softly, "A Xi, you're home."
"Oh." A Xi reluctantly turned his head away and followed Fu Yao home.
Walking on the road, Fu Yao asked again: "A Xi, do you like reading books?"
Had he been discovered by Madam?
A Xi immediately shook his head, "Madam, I don't dare anymore, I won't dare to do it again!"
"What do you dare not do? I don't blame you! There's also Madam Bie's name. You can just call her Big Sister. "
A Xi lowered his head and did not speak. The Madam was the Madam, he had already sold her to Fu Yao.
"Actually, A Xi, it's good that you like reading. I just like children who like reading. You are very hardworking, and you are also very hardworking. If you like reading, then go study."
"I don't like reading. Not at all."
"Kid, what are you so uncomfortable about!" Fu Yao was furious, "All you say is not your heart, if you like to study, then go.
A Xi shrunk his neck in fright, "It's not like that."
"What else could it be?"
A Xi lowered his head. Fu Yao's family was very dilapidated, and there were three men who were lazy to eat at home. He had already spent Fu Yao's twenty silver taels, how could he let Fu Yao pay for him again?
"Tell me what happened!" Fu Yao held onto A Xi's hand, "If you continue to be this uncomfortable, then it's really not suitable for you to stay in my house."
"I …" A Xi suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with tears. I am already very grateful for you taking me in. I just don't want to trouble you with anything else. Work hard to help you take care of your family. "
Fu Yao was moved, but after she was touched, she immediately said, "I don't need you to care about that. If you want to repay me, I can just study hard, sister, I have a huge future, I can't do it well, and need to find someone to help me settle the score. Do you think I would be so kind as to send you to school? "You wish!"
That night, when Fu Yao told everyone that she was sending A Xi to school, she did not express her surprise. Fu Feng expressed her happiness, because in the future, there would be people who would follow him to and from school.
A Xi secretly raised his eyes and looked at them without any objections, he lowered his head and wiped the tears off his cheeks. In the past, if he said anything, he would be beaten up.
He sniffed. "Sis, I will definitely repay you well."
"No need, just keep on studying and you will repay your sister." Ren Yun Xing spoke up for Fu Yao.
After dinner, Fu Yao squeezed Xiao Ming Yuan to wash the dishes. There was nothing she could do, she had to chase him away so that she wouldn't have to share the same room with him.
"My wife, are you tired after running all day?" Ren Yun Xing sat on the side of the bed and massaged her body.
He could not help but moan.
Listening outside, Xiao Ming Yuan's face was completely red, he ran into Feng Man Lou who was also eavesdropping, both of them groaned, and then left.
Fu Yao opened the door, "Strange, I clearly heard a sound just now?"
Then he closed the door again.
"Madam, come quickly."
Xiao Ming Yuan hung heavily on the floor, looking at the silhouette outside the window: "Shameless."
"Shameless!" Feng Man Lou said angrily. Every day, he would carry Ren Yun Xing the beauty in his arms, and with the wooden stick as his companion, he really wanted to leave this place.
"Why do you say that? Don't tell me you like Fu Yao too! " Xiao Ming Yuan saw that Feng Man Lou had talked to him for the first time.
"I like Ren Yun Xing!" Feng Man Lou left with these words.
Xiao Ming Yuan looked at Feng Man Lou in regret. At the same time, he also felt that he had fallen to the opposite side of the world.
Early the next morning, Fu Yao brought A Xi to the private school and paid the bill. The Mr. Liu thought that Fu Yao still wanted the white grapes, but didn't say anything along the way. She absent-mindedly took A Xi's test for a few questions, but she didn't expect that all of them would answer the same.
Until when Fu Yao was about to leave, she still did not say anything about the White Grape.
"The wine you brew is delicious."
The Mr. Liu said before he left.
Fu Yao only smiled. She was not worried about the White Grape, what she was most worried about was still the brick issue.
She rushed to the brick factory without stopping, just as the first batch of bricks had already been burned out. Fu Yao looked very excited, this meant that she could quickly start construction of her house.
"Fu Yao is here." Wu Xiao Liu immediately ran over when he saw her.
He was sweating and his body smelled sour.
"Sixth Uncle, you aren't staying here forever, right?" Fu Yao asked with a different tone.
Wu Xiao Liu could only chuckle.
"You really do live here, what are you doing so hard?"
"You're talking about a brick with a hole in it. I'm working on that."
Fu Yao sighed, should she not tell Wu Xiao Liu that they still had more bricks?
"Alright, stop doing that. Hurry up and go home, otherwise Wu Liuyi will blame me." Fu Yao was both relieved and worried. After all, she was the one in charge here, and it was good to be serious, but she couldn't possibly abandon her family because of this matter, right?
"The sky is overturned, and she still dares to blame you!" Wu Xiao Liu laughed and said, "I have already prepared the first batch of bricks that you wanted, it should be enough for you to use in your second floor villa. When are you going to move the soil?
"There's no rush. I'll come and discuss it with you when you get home." Fu Yao pushed Wu Xiao Liu home …
