A Lucky Wife Born Again From a Farm Family Chapter 177

Chapter 177 Farming

Gu Dexing was not happy, his face was ugly, and he sat silently.

Earlier he wanted to become a disciple of Shang Xiucai, but Shang Xiucai confiscated it and wrote him a letter. The letter said that he should go to a private school in the town to study. After studying for ten years, he might be able to get a degree. But now his father asked him to go to Songzigou to study with Xu Tongsheng, which was clearly a deliberate attempt to beat him up.

Gu Dafu was deliberately beating him up. If he didn't suppress his ambition, he might not know what he would do next.

Seeing that he had a bad face again, Gu Dafu was very annoyed and said directly: "If you don't want to go to Xu Tongsheng's private school, then don't go to school and farm at home."

How could Gu Dexing be willing to farm at home? He knew the hard work of digging in the ground, so he could only nod and agree.

Gu Yumei saw that her eldest brother had already nodded, so she could only agree.

Mrs. Chen was happy that the two eldest young masters and eldest ladies had finally come back to their senses. If they continued to do this, she would propose to separate the family even if Gu Dagui disagreed.

On the second day, Gu Yumei and Gu Dexing were dressed in coarse linen clothes, carrying baskets and farm tools, and followed Gu Dafu to the fields.

The family were not surprised when they saw Gu Dexing going to the fields, but they were really shocked when they saw Gu Yumei. Sister Mei actually went to work in the fields. This was really new.

In the past, when she was asked to grind spices, she kept urging her, crying and saying that her hands hurt and she couldn't do it, but Gu Dafu was reluctant to scold her and let her do it. What happened today? The sun comes out in the west?

The Third Grandma and Gu Jinli were planting bean sprouts in the field. When they saw Gu Yumei going down to the ground, the Third Grandma nodded and said, "That's right. Farmers can spoil good girls like this. Even good girls are spoiled."

Farmers have to do farm work, and you are not a rich girl in the county. You can always get used to it, and no one will laugh at you for pretending.

The wastelands of several families are connected together. When they reached the end of the field, Gu Dafu pointed to the wasteland of Gu Jinli's house and said, "Sister Mei, follow your second aunt to the seedling bed of Xiaoyu's house to get bean sprouts."

In the past, they planted soybeans by sowing seeds directly, but Xiaoyu said that raising seedlings first and then transplanting can increase the yield of soybeans.

If Xiaoyu had said such a thing in her hometown, she would have been called crazy, but she made tofu and made several families make money, and several families believed in her. Although the planting method of seedlings and transplants was It went against the planting methods passed down from their ancestors, but they still agreed to raise seedlings and transplant soybeans.

With the consent of several family members, Gu Jinli used an acre of his own wasteland as a seedling bed to raise seedlings. Now the bean seedlings have grown half a hand high and are ready for transplanting.

With a stinking face, Gu Yumei followed Chen and walked towards the wasteland of Gu Jinli's house, muttering: "Gu Xiaoyu is very busy. What kind of seedlings can we raise? How about just sowing the seeds?"

Now they have to transplant, which makes them have to plant bean sprouts and plant several plants, which makes them exhausted.

Ms. Chen turned back and glared at her: "Shut up, work honestly, and don't make Xiaoyu unhappy by talking nonsense."

Gu Yumei felt extremely wronged: "Why should I shut up? She's not happy, so am I happy?" Everyone only knows Gu Xiaoyu, so why doesn't anyone care about her?

Mrs. Chen had a headache and wanted to slap her twice. She was too lazy to argue with her and just said: "Work honestly. If you don't obey, I will tell you about taking He Minzi's handkerchief. How can you get married?" "

Ms. Chen just wanted to scare her. It was impossible to tell such a scandal. If her reputation was ruined, her family would have to support her for the rest of her life. It would not be worth it.

Gu Yumei was angry and aggrieved, shedding tears, but she didn't dare to say anything bad about Gu Jinli anymore.

“Mrs. San, we are here. Where are my bean sprouts?” Mrs. Chen put down the basket and asked the third grandma. Then she said to Gu Yumei, “Call someone to make you mute?”

 Gu Yumei did not dare to be disrespectful to Third Grandma, so she hurriedly called out: "Third Grandma," but did not call out to Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli didn't care at all and didn't even glance at Gu Yumei from the corner of his eye. "Hey." The third grandmother responded, pointing to the three ridges of bean sprouts on the right hand side and said: "Your family has those three ridges. After counting the small fish, one ridge of bean sprouts can plant two acres of land."

He also told them: "Be careful when you are planting bean sprouts. Don't break the taproot." If the taproot is broken, the bean sprouts will not survive.

"I know San Auntie." Two days ago, Gu Jinli told everyone how to raise bean sprouts. Mrs. Chen and the others all remembered it. When they came to the seedling bed, they squatted down and raised bean sprouts according to the method taught by Gu Jinli.

Gu Yumei was clumsy and broke a lot of the main roots when raising the bean seedlings. Gu Jinli frowned and said: "Every family only raised half a catty more bean seeds and killed too many." , make up for it at home.”

Gu Yumei was going to work in the fields, and she was already holding back her anger. When she heard this, she said angrily: "It's not you who caused the harm. Can't you just plant as usual? You insist on raising seedlings and transplanting, which makes everyone exhausted! What? The yield is about 40%, who are you kidding? Look at who has never grown soybeans. Besides, soybeans only cost three cents a pound, so what if the yield is high but the yield is low? It's not like we don't have money, at worst we can just buy it with money.”

Gu Jinli looked at Gu Yumei as if he were a fool, and mocked: "Three pennies per pound of soybeans is not expensive, so you can make money to buy them yourself."

 Added another sentence: "Don't make money with tofu and spices. Make something new and sell it yourself."

These words made Gu Yumei's face burn. She wanted to refute, but she really didn't have the ability to make new things. The reason why her family's life became better was because of tofu and spices, and these two things were made by Gu Jinli.

Mrs. Chen said in a bad tone: "Do you think you have a gold mountain at home? You don't look down on three cents anymore. Hurry up and raise bean sprouts for me. If you don't want to raise bean sprouts, just go and plant bean sprouts. This kind of bean sprouts is even more tiring."

 Gu Yumei was so aggrieved that she shed tears while squatting down to raise bean sprouts. She only learned how to raise bean sprouts after harming many bean sprouts.

After working hard for half an hour, I finally picked up a load of bean sprouts and carried them to my field.

Gu Dafu saw her swaying with her load and was afraid that she would fall, so he hurried to pick her up.

 Gu Yumei knew that her father felt guilty because of her mother's death, and loved their siblings very much. The tears that had stopped falling again fell after seeing Gu Dafu.

 Gu Dafu originally wanted to comfort her, but when he saw her like this, he stopped comforting her and said directly: "Work well with your second aunt and third grandma. Don't be too dirty and tired. Is there any farm work that is not dirty and tiring?"

Gu Yumei was actually crying, but she really cried when she heard this. She also thought that her father probably had money and planned to marry their stepmother, so he no longer loved her and her eldest brother.

How could Gu Dafu know that Gu Yumei was so thoughtful? He just told her to put down the bean sprouts with a straight face.

Gu Yumei was so angry that she kept crying. Her eyes were swollen from crying. When it was time to have lunch, she didn't see Gu Jinxiu. She immediately pointed at Gu Jinli and shouted, "Why didn't your sister go to the fields? It's time for spring plowing." Everyone is on the ground, and she's not the eldest lady, so why doesn't she come?”

Gu Jinli looked at Gu Yumei and really felt that she was sick, or terminally ill: "My eldest sister is very busy at home making tofu. Why does she have to work in the fields? She is here to work in the fields. Who will make the tofu at home? ?Do you know?"

Moreover…

“What does my eldest sister's inability to get off the ground have to do with you? Did you help plant my land? It's really like a dog meddling in other people's business like a mouse!”

Her family and the third grandpa's family combined have nine acres of wasteland, eight acres of soybean fertilized fields, and the remaining one acre she has negotiated with Gu Dashan and Cui to test the cultivation of medicinal materials. Dashan Gu Jinan, He Sanleizi and Mo Chunyue, why do they need Gu Jinxiu?
