Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family
Chapter 126 Guilt
Today was an important day when the government officials came to collect taxes at home. Zheng Shaoxuan originally planned to stay at home, but Lin Xiaocao said she could handle it and insisted that he go to Pingle Village to attend classes normally.
Zheng Shao
As soon as he entered the village, Zheng Shaoxuan heard that Lin Xiaocao almost failed to save the family's food. Without caring about his dignity, he picked up his blue shirt and robe and ran towards the house.
"Hiss, Zheng Shaoxuan looks like a wooden man. Unexpectedly, he actually loves his wife."
"Lin Xiaocao is both a lady and a mother. As long as Zheng Shaoxuan has a conscience, he can't treat Lin Xiaocao badly."
"Hey, Lin Xiaocao works in the fields with wild men all day long. Isn't Zheng Shaoxuan a little worried?"
"What wild man? Look at what you are saying. I have never seen those men enter Zheng's house! When I went to Zheng's house to drink water, everyone was standing outside the door."
"Hey, if you speak for Lin Xiaocao, are you getting some benefits from her?"
"Stop farting! I just can't bear to see a serious woman being made pornographic! Say some fair words to Lin Xiaocao!"
……
Zheng Shaoxuan ran all the way. He had no idea that so many people were paying attention to his family's affairs. He rushed into the house and saw Lin Xiaocao wiping tears with her back to him.
Lin Xiaocao hid and cried secretly. Her cry was silent, and her shoulders shook as she cried.
On the day Zheng's mother passed away, Lin Xiaocao burst into tears for the first time. The rest of the time she cried quietly. After she finished crying, she wiped her tears and pretended to be okay with Zheng Shaoxuan.
A couple living under the same roof, Zheng Shaoxuan collided
I had seen him many times, but he never exposed Lin Xiaocao's poor acting skills, but this time he didn't want to pretend that nothing happened: "Xiaocao, why are you crying? Is everything okay?"
"Ms., sir, I'm fine, I'm fine, I..."
Lin Xiaocao was caught off guard and was hugged tightly by Zheng Shaoxuan. She was not used to it and struggled slightly.
Zheng Shaoxuan hugged her tighter, "Xiaocao, if you feel uncomfortable or unhappy, you can tell me. I like to hear it."
Lin Xiaocao couldn't help but cry as she spoke: "Ms. Ning, Ning Niang said eating more rice is good for your health. I was thinking of cooking more rice for you. I'm the only one in our house when the yamen officer saw that it's good for your health." , take away an extra bag of millet...I, I can't cook rice for you."
When Zheng Shaoxuan heard this, his tears fell. He knew the reason why Lin Xiaocao was crying sadly, and he felt moved and sad at the same time.
The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.
After a while, Zheng Shaoxuan persuaded: "Xiaocao, it's okay if I skip a few meals of rice. We used to eat so much bran that we couldn't even afford rice. Thanks to Huo Di's help, our life is getting better and better." The better.”
It's okay that Zheng Shaoxuan didn't comfort him. He hugged and coaxed her. Lin Xiaocao could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart. She grabbed her husband's green shirt and cried sadly through a stick of incense.
Lin Xiaocao cried because of the unfair fate, the difficulty of survival, and even more because she and Zheng Shaoxuan were dependent on each other.
Zheng Shaoxuan never let go of Lin Xiaocao until she had cried enough and regained her composure.
Lin Xiaocao withdrew from Zheng Shaoxuan's arms, feeling very embarrassed. She had never been so arrogant in front of her husband.
Zheng Shaoxuan treated her as always, "Xiaocao, do you want some water? I'll pour it for you."
Lin Xiaocao shook his head. She didn't want to drink water, she just wanted to dig a hole, crawl in and pretend to be dead.
Zheng Shaoxuan poured a glass or two of water over, handed it to his wife who bowed her head in silence, and asked her: "Xiaocao, do you want me to find a way to get that bag of millet back?"
"do not want!"
Lin Xiaocao threw herself into Zheng Shaoxuan's arms, her eyes full of fear and uneasiness: "Mr. sir, don't go looking for them!"
Zheng Shaoxuan's heart ached when he saw it, and the hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists.
He knew that Lin Xiaocao was afraid that he would be retaliated by the government officials, and he felt unprecedented anger and powerlessness in his heart.
In the afternoon of that day, Huo Yunze came to Zheng's house carrying a large bamboo basket. It contained millet that had been blown clean by a grain blower, with distinct grains and very plump grains.
Huo Yunze took out another earthen jar from the bamboo basket, handed it to Zheng Shaoxuan and said, "Master Zheng, thanks to my elder brother's insecticide, my family has collected three more bags of millet. My parents asked me to send some over for Master Zheng and my wife to have a taste." . The earthen pot contains grain seeds that my parents selected according to my eldest brother’s request, which is enough to plant an acre of land. My eldest brother said that the grain seeds should be cultivated first and then transplanted to the paddy fields.”
The rice sent by the Huo family was delivered very timely, which was like dew after a long drought.
After sending Huo Yunze away, Zheng Shaoxuan immediately ground the dried rice into rice and cooked a large pot of white rice: "Xiaocao, come here, let's recuperate together."
Lin Xiaocao had never eaten pure white rice in his memory. It was always mixed with wild vegetables and whole grains.
As she ate, she began to shed tears, big tears falling down, and she couldn't help but said: "Mr., I miss my mother."
. If my mother were still here, she would be able to eat such fragrant rice. "
Mother Zheng waited for her to dig out her heart and lungs, and she was gracious and reborn. Lin Xiaocao finally managed to eat something delicious, and her heart was full of guilt.
Listening to Lin Xiaocao's sigh, Zheng Shaoxuan closed his eyes sadly and tried to force back the tears that burst out, but failed: "I will burn more paper money for my mother tomorrow."
The population of Zheng Shaoxuan's family was one less than that of Huo Yunchao's. Lin Xiaocao managed six acres of land alone, which was too busy at all.
As a true farmer's boy, Zheng Shaoxuan naturally couldn't let Lin Xiaocao support him with peace of mind, let alone put all the burden of life on his wife's shoulders.
After becoming the master of the Huo family clan, Zheng Shaoxuan began to live a life of "half-day master, half-day farmer".
When he was a teacher, he wore a green shirt and was well groomed. After taking off his green shirt and long robe and putting on short gaited shorts, Zheng Shaoxuan looked like an authentic farmer.
Students and parents accepted this well. The most important thing is that there is Huo Yunchao's negative teaching material "Pearls and Jade First". By comparison, it is found that Zheng Shaoxuan is such a down-to-earth scholar, and they feel closer to Zheng Shaoxuan.
Three acres of the Zheng family's six acres of land are planted with rice. The rice harvest on the three acres of land is so busy that Lin Xiaocao alone is really busy.
Even with the efficient harvesting tools invented and created by Huo Yunchao, it still cannot solve the problem of too little labor.
Agriculture is a labor-intensive industry that requires a large amount of manpower. Therefore, rural areas have had the concept of "more children, more blessings" since ancient times, which is completely based on the needs of real life.
Fortunately, since Zheng Shaoxuan became a disciple of the Huo clan,
Master, after the parents of the students are busy with their own work, they will come to help collect the food.
This group of simple farmers shared a lot of work for Lin Xiaocao, making it easier for her.
However, strange men kept coming to help Lin Xiaocao with work, and there were many gossips in the village. Some said that Lin Xiaocao was restless, that Zheng Shaoxuan sold his wife for glory, and was not a scholar in vain, etc.
