Joe's Farming

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Heng's babyish voice came from behind him.

"Daddy! Daddy! Hengzi is here! Woo woo woo ..."

Qiao Yu and Gu Feng turned around and saw Wang Jie chasing after the little guy.

Gu Heng stumbled and cried as he ran: "Wow, Daddy, I miss you."

Gu Feng quickly rushed forward and picked up his son.

Wang Jie said awkwardly from behind: "Hengzi just heard the sound of the carriage and chased after it. Wen Ge'er and I didn't notice it..."

Wang Jie took a breath and said with lingering fear: "Luckily everything is fine. Brother Wen and I were scared to death."

Gu Heng cried too fast, hiccuping and saying, "...I knew...Daddy is back, don't be separated from Daddy."

Qiao Yu was heartbroken and quickly held her son's hand and promised, "Be good, baby. I will never abandon you in the future."

Gu Heng uttered a loud "hmm" and suddenly saw three tall and strong foreigners standing beside him.

One of them has blond hair and green eyes.

Gu Heng's eyes widened, and he was completely attracted by Lucas.

"Hey - Daddy, why is there a monster in our house?"

"puff--"

Qiao Yu knew that this little guy's crying was not his nature, but curiosity was.

Lucas had no idea what the monster meant and looked blankly at the people who were laughing.

Gu Feng said embarrassedly: "Sorry, baby has never seen anyone like you."

Lucas touched his nose and felt that this monster was not a good word, so he asked.

Qiao Yu was thinking about how to explain.

Gu Heng blinked his big eyes and said, "Ah, the monster can speak human language!"

Qiao Yu immediately covered his son's mouth and introduced him: "Hengzi, this is Daddy's friend. His name is Lucas, you should call him uncle! The two next to him are Lucas' brothers, Leo and Johnson."

Qiao Yu looked at him and emphasized: "Do you understand? If you understand, just nod your head."

Gu Heng widened his eyes and nodded vigorously.

Only then did Qiao Yu let go of his hand.

Gu Heng obediently called out: “Uncle Lucas, Uncle Leo… um, Uncle Qiang!”

It turns out that his little brain can't remember people's names.

Lucas was touched by his cuteness and said with a smile, "It's Uncle Johnson."

Seeing that Lucas spoke so nicely, Gu Heng must not be a monster, so he let down his guard and smiled sweetly at him: "Yes, it's Uncle Johnson."

As they were talking, everyone crossed the yard and came to the main room.

There was a charcoal fire in the room, and it was very warm.

Qiao Yu asked Lucas whether they wanted to stay in his guest room or at the villa.

The villa can accommodate one person per room, but there are only two guest rooms, so you need to squeeze in.

Or send someone to sleep at Brother Gu Feng's house.

Lucas smiled and said, "Just stay in the guest room. They can sleep together."

Qiao Yu nodded and asked Xia He to clean up the room.

After the room was cleaned up, Lucas and the other two went to rest so as not to disturb Qiao Yu and Gu Feng from reuniting with their family.

Soon, Li Xin also heard the news that Qiao Yu had returned, and hurried up to see his brother.

Seeing his rosy complexion, Qiao Yu knew at a glance that Ling Lie had taken good care of him after their marriage.

"Where's Ling Lie?"

Qiao Yu asked.

"I went to town to move some stuff. Brother, I heard you bought three boatloads of stuff this time. Aren't you really rich?"

Li Xin said happily.

Gu Gang and Hong Xiu said in unison: "Three ships???"

Qiao Yu touched his nose and explained, "In fact, we only bought a ship of sugar cane, a ship of seafood, and a ship of wine. The money for the wine has not been paid yet, and Lucas and his friends are here to collect the money."

Li Xin laughed out loud: "Brother! Finally I'm not the only one who is wasting money!"

Gu Feng smiled and said, "Xiao Xin, don't talk nonsense. Qiao Er bought these things to make money."

Li Xin stopped laughing and nodded.

Seeing that the old man was not there, Qiao Yu asked Qiao Xing: "Where is Grandpa?"

Qiao Xing immediately replied: "Grandpa is at Uncle Bai's house."

Qiao Yu understood that he must have gone to play chess with Bai Ming's father.

Although I was a little tired, I saw that everyone had an expression that said, "Tell us if it's fun to go to Nanzhou."

Qiao Yu then recounted every detail of the trip, with Gu Feng occasionally adding a word or two.

The trip was uneventful. Although it was a bit dull, everyone enjoyed it very much.

"It turns out that it doesn't snow in Nanyang in winter."

Hongxiu sighed.

"Speaking of which, Brother Gu and I bought everyone some special clothes from Nanyang. They are very breathable and comfortable, and are great to wear in spring and summer. They'll be there for you in a bit."

Gu Xiaoxue said happily: "Do we have it too?"

Qiao Yu touched her head and said, "Everyone has one!"

Gu Xiaoyan was most interested in the coconut chicken: "Daddy, I want to eat coconut chicken!"

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "Okay! Let's make coconut chicken tonight. We'll also have braised prawns, spicy fried clams, and crabs."

The little ones cheered.

They have never eaten these.

Gu Heng gently tugged at Qiao Yu's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Daddy, can you make something slightly spicy for me? Hengzi wants to eat it too."

Qiao Yu kissed his forehead: "Of course."

"Hey, Daddy is the best!"

Gu Feng, who was holding him, heard this and asked, "What about me?"

Gu Heng smiled and said, "You are also a father!"

Finally, he added: "Two dads are the best!"

Gu Heng doesn’t like calling Qiao Yu “little daddy”, he thinks that’s too many words, he’s still his daddy anyway.

Of course Qiao Yu was happy for him to call him that. Before, Xiao Xing also liked to call him daddy in private, and he felt very happy about it.

After all, his age is there in his heart.

But Xu Ning is miserable. He is obviously older than Xu Yuan, but he is still called little dad.

However, he, a stranger, is the only one who cares about this title, as people of this era have already gotten used to it.

But this kind of thinking will change slowly. For example, no one in their villa dares to say "girls and boys are supposed to get married and have children", and no one thinks that boys are inferior to men.

Qiao Yu is slowly changing their traditional ideas through personal actions.

Soon Bai Lan and the others came up to see Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu also asked her to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

At this time, the advantage of Lingyun Villa owning a breeding farm came into play.

There is no shortage of chicken, duck, fish and meat. Just go to the chicken coop and catch them.

And there are rabbits. Rabbits are so fertile.

There is no shortage of feed for feeding the rabbits in the villa, and now the number of rabbits in the villa has reached a thousand.

Young ginger rabbit, cold rabbit and hot pot rabbit have become the specialty dishes of Yipinxuan and Shanzhuang.

There are often guests from other places who come here just to have a bite of rabbit.

The spicy braised rabbit head was sold for 18 cents each.

At the beginning, there was a scalper who bought all the rabbit heads from his house early in the morning and sold them for twenty cents the next day.

Some even sold it for twenty-two cents, while some sold it to ship merchants, where the price was even higher, at forty or fifty cents each.

This forced Qiao Yu to start selling in limited quantities.

If there weren't constables patrolling outside the snack bar regularly, these people would have fought with the store clerks just to buy a few more rabbit heads.

Lucas and his friends only planned to stay for one night, so Qiao Yu thought about asking Ling Lie to roast a few rabbits for them later so that they could eat them slowly on the way back.
