Chapter 291 Rain

Second update, please find the latest chapter of pink.

***……………**

Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son brought a plow stick pulled by a mule and two short-term workers.

"Oh, this is not something that can be done." Lian Shouxin hurriedly refused, "Brother Wu, I have gained your kindness. Your family also has land, and it is time to rush to plant it. How can you let you put down your own land and help me farm it... Don't look at how many children I and my mother took, we also have plowing sticks and these acres of land, and we can still plant it."

"Brother Shunxin, why are you polite to me?" Wu Yugui smiled and said, "Tell you, our land has been planted, so I came to help you. You are only a few people, and you still have to work in the breakfast shop business. There is no dark day or night when you work. It takes a day or two, but how can you do it if you have a long time? Besides, you don't wait for people to plant this kind of land. You can quickly plant it in the past two days, so that it will save you from working all the land. Then you still have to carry water and farm, which will be troublesome."

"Yes, Uncle Fourth, we have finished planting our land. I will help you and not delay our own affairs." Wu Jiaxing also said.

Even Shuxin was a little hesitant.

"...Others can't compare with us. What is the relationship between our two families? We are real relatives." Wu Yugui seemed to guess Lian Shouxin's concerns and said again.

A cousin of Zhou married into the Wu family in Sanshiliyingzi and gave birth to a son named Wu Yuchang. Wu Yugui and Wu Yuchang are cousins ​​of their relatives. In this way, although they are not related by blood, even Shouxin and Wu Yugui are cousins.

What's more, the two families are getting closer and closer recently.

"Let's stop chatting, hurry up and plant the land. Let your younger brother and sister and a few children go home early to rest." Wu Yugui said again.

Wu Yugui said everything, but he no longer refused to refuse to keep his trust.

Wu Yugui, Wu Jiaxing, together with two short-term workers with strong laborers, and the addition of a plow rod, increased the speed of Lian Man'er's farming at more than doubled.

While working, Shouxin and Wu Yugui were chatting.

Wu Yugui usually works in a business that is very rich, and his family has more than 100 acres of land. His family hires a mate who does odd jobs all year round. In addition, every time the farming season is busy, he hires short-term workers. In the spring plowing and autumn harvest, Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son will go to the fields and lead short-term workers to work. As for serving crops, they will give them more to reliable short-term workers.

Wu Jiaxing's mother Wang and his sister Wu Jiayu don't have to go to the fields to do rough work, and are only responsible for cooking at home.

"Brother Shuxin. Your shop is a business that brings money. According to me, in the future, I will hire a few workers to do the work in the field. Otherwise, you are busy and unable to bear it and delay your business." Because the friendship has become better, Wu Yugui said to Lian Shuxin more realistically. "I am familiar with people from all over the country. If you want to hire someone, I will introduce you to a few reliable ones, so that you will not worry about it."

Even making money by keeping trust and doing business. In less than a year, he still stayed at the original stage. He didn't have enough land to plant more land, so he bought more land and planted himself. He never thought about hiring people to farm.

"Now you have about fifty acres of land. You can only plant it yourself. When you buy the land, you can't plant it." Wu Yugui smiled.

Lian Man'er heard what Wu Yugui said behind him and nodded secretly. Their family would definitely buy land again. When they could not plant it, they would either rent it out for people to plant it or hire someone to help them.

Some of the families of the farmer households are relatively poor, with little land or even no land. In order to make a living, these people either rent other people's land or do short-term laborers, and of course some are also hired as long-term laborers. For example, Wu Yugui, there are not many landlords who hire short-term laborers to farm. However, big landlords like Wang Juren's family have raised more than a dozen long-term laborers to farm.

Although Lian Man'er's family did not hire workers, their breakfast shops, Shiwazi, who ran the hall, Zhao, who helped the kitchen, and Old Man Wang, who cleaned the toilet, were all hired by her family.

"Uncle Wu San, then we agreed that when my family wants to hire a worker, you can help us find a few reliable and capable people." Lian Man'er said.

"Okay, I'm going to cover me." Wu Yugui agreed with a smile, then turned his head to Lian Shouxin and Zhang, "The two children Zhi'er and Man'er are really rare. They are diligent and skillful. They are the top leader in this family and outside the family. Whoever marrys them in the future will be blessed."

Lian Zhi'er's movements slowed down. She was already shy when she heard about her marriage.

Lian Man'er was nothing, but she knew that she was not going to move forward at this time, but her ears were so eager to stand up to hear what Wu Yugui and Lian Shouxin would say next.

"My two daughters are big-footed, and they don't want to be rich and noble families. Just our ordinary family, as long as the family is harmonious, the elderly are kind, treat them well, and the children are kind, and they are kind to their tempers." Zhang followed Wu Yugui's words and said.

At this time, the rain became heavier. Wu Jiaxing led the livestock and walked past Lian Zhier's side, and his pace slowed down.

Lian Zhier's hair was already wet by the rain. Wu Jiaxing looked around and saw that no one paid attention to him, he raised his hand and took off the straw hat on his head and handed it to Lian Zhier.

He didn't even get the branches, so he hid aside for a while.

Wu Jiaxing stubbornly held the straw hat and kept the posture of handing it to Lianzhier.

Coincidentally, Lian Man'er, who was not far away, raised his head at this time and happened to see this scene. Wu Jiaxing and Lian Zhier sensitively noticed the gaze projected on them. Lian Zhier hurriedly moved away from Wu Jiaxing, lowered his head to work, and did not say anything.

Wu Jiaxing held the straw hat and turned around and handed it to Lian Man'er.

"Man'er, I'll wear a straw hat for you." Wu Jiaxing smiled at Lian Man'er.

Lian Man'er narrowed her eyes and thought to herself, don't think I didn't see your little moves. If I wanted to please me, why did you go? If my sister didn't want your straw hat, you wouldn't have remembered to give it to me. By the way, if I hadn't seen it, you wouldn't have remembered to wear the straw hat for me!

"Tsk!" Lian Man'er deliberately turned her head and ignored Wu Jiaxing.

Wu Jiaxing was a little at a loss when he held the straw hat. Lian Zhier noticed Wu Jiaxing's embarrassment and felt a little soft-hearted. She couldn't say anything about Lian Man'er.

"Brother Jiaxing, you can wear the straw hat yourself. We're fine." Lian Zhi'er said.

"My sister's hair is already wet, so what's the point of wearing a straw hat?" Lian Man'er walked closer and said deliberately.

Wu Jiaxing is relatively mature among boys of the same age. However, being said by Lian Man'er still made him blush with embarrassment. He had long wanted to give Lian Zhier the straw hat, but it was not that easy to muster up the courage to do this, right?

Apart from his sister Wu Jiayu, Wu Jiaxing has no experience with other girls. Wu Jiayu has little talk and never robs him of nothing.

Wu Jiaxing was embarrassed there pitifully.

Lian Man'er saw it and almost laughed secretly to the point of internal injuries. Wu Jiaxing, who always looked old, was actually just a young man with a tender face. Just one sentence made him stunned. It was so fun!

"Man'er..." Lian Zhi'er secretly angrily glanced at Lian Man'er.

At this moment, Xiaoqi came back from home with three straw hats.

"Uncle Wu San, Brother Jiaxing..." Xiaoqi greeted him when he saw Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing.

"Oh." Xiao Qi's arrival finally rescued Wu Jiaxing from his predicament. Wu Jiaxing had long seen Lian Man'er holding back her smile, and knew that she was deliberately making a prank. She was not embarrassed, but she had another new problem that needed to be solved urgently.

Lian Man'er's family only had three straw hats, and the whole family gave in to each other. In the end, the three straw hats fell on Zhang's head, Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er's head. Wu Jiaxing's straw hat was worn on Xiao Qi's head, which he insisted on.

Although the boy had no experience, he had a wise heart. He realized quite quickly that there were some people on his way to pursue his wife and that they had to please him first.

It was almost noon and the sky cleared.

"You can take the child home to cook." Lian Shouxin said to Zhang.

"Okay." Zhang nodded, "Where to eat at noon?"

"Go to the shop. We plan to put all the dishes we cooked at noon on the shop, right?" Lian Man'er heard it and said hurriedly.

"Yes, let's go to the shop to eat at noon." Lian Shouxin said.

Zhang took Lian Zhier and Lian Man'er back to the shop first. He wanted to entertain Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son, as well as two short-term workers he invited, so he could not eat lunch as casually as they could.

"Mom, why not, let's just make pancakes. It's affordable, so hungry." Lian Man'er suggested.

"Yes, just set the pancakes." Zhang thought about it and agreed, "I have to stir-fry two more dishes. Man'er, you can buy two kilograms of meat in the town."

"Why."

Lian Man'er agreed and came to Qingyang Town with a basket. She first bought three kilograms of meat from the butcher shop, and then went to the wine shop to buy a jar of wine. Because she had to work in the afternoon, they would not drink at noon. However, Wu Yugui could not only help them with work for half a day, and the wine would come in handy by supper.

When Lian Man'er came back from the town with a basket, Zhang and Lian Zhi'er had already baked the cakes and prepared the side dishes. After cutting the meat, they started cooking.

Fried leeks with eggs, stir-fried bean sprouts, stir-fried black fungus, stewed dried tofu with meat slices, and a pot of big bone kelp soup. The dried tofu I bought was not stewed, and some were left. In addition, scallions and soy sauce were prepared. Some of the farmers liked this bite, which tasted delicious.

When Lian Shouxin brought Wu Yugui and his son back, the three Zhang and his daughter had already cooked all the food.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. After the meal, they didn't take a break and the crowd returned to the field to work.

With the help of the Wu family and two short-term workers, the next evening, even Man'er's land was almost planted. It started to rain heavily on their way to finish work.
