Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm

After the New Year, I haven’t used my contribution points much except for buying a few odds and ends. However, my contribution points haven’t increased much either.

Starting this afternoon, the system has received voice broadcasts one after another, and has received a total of 50 contribution points from the gratitude of the Green Water villagers.

She was not surprised by the gratitude of the villagers in Lushui Village. If seven or eight out of ten people were grateful, she felt that human nature was generally kinder. She had seen ungrateful people in real life.

Plus 12 contribution points received from Zhuangzi for the gratitude.

And there was the windfall last time - 3000 contribution points.

Home page of the Virgin Mary system, current contribution points: 4272.

This is the highest number of contribution points accumulated so far.

The dry and wet replacement of Xiaozhouzhuang material packs is a way to deduct medicinal materials as replacement fees, 90 kilograms of wet materials are exchanged for 4000 kilograms of dry materials. No contribution points are used, otherwise, there would not be as many as contribution points.

It’s still worth being happy, at least the prospects are good.

"Xiao Tong, I'm very capable, right?" Li Changle couldn't help feeling a little proud.

"Although we will have to spend a lot of contribution points soon, we will be nouveau riche in two months!"

In addition to the free provision from Lushui Village, she is about to spend about 1000 contribution points to purchase seedlings and provide them to other households in Li County.

After two months, the sweet potatoes are ripe.

According to the farming tasks of rural life, one acre of land is rewarded with 10 contribution points for farming progress. If 1000 acres are multiplied by 10, she will receive a farming progress reward! !

There are also about 1000 contribution points as rewards for the gratitude of the people in Li County!

So in the end she even earned a net contribution point!

It's all money!

What a huge sum of money!

You can use the money you purchased in the system mall!

The system's voice came faintly: "Host, be modest and keep working! To upgrade the Virgin Mary system to level A, you need to reach 10 current contribution points."

Li Changle was so high-spirited at the moment that he didn't care whether it was A or not. "Let's not talk about things that are so far away. I haven't even received 1 yet, and you're telling me it's 10. Isn't that a bummer?"

She estimated the size of the woodshed and filled the room with sweet potato seedlings.

He went to the thatched shed in the yard and stocked up some.

If it is not enough, you can fill it up later in a moment.

In addition, she still underestimated the system's output. The seedlings in the greenhouse outside the yard were enough to be planted in the sandy and rocky land of Lushui Village, and the potato seed germination rate was excellent.

After all, each family only has one acre or a few acres of sandy and gravel land.

Early tomorrow morning, Wang Dahu and his brothers will come to take away the 20 acres of sweet potato seedlings from Xiaozhouzhuang.

When the harvest is good, there will be another 200 farming task contribution points as a reward.

She clicked her tongue with delight.

Then, I placed an order for one acre of upland rice seeds and one acre of corn seeds, which only cost 2 contribution points.

She muttered, "The price of seeds is cheap..."

The system is silent, it's almost free, okay?

The next day, Li Changle got up very early.

But someone got there earlier than her.

She woke up at about six in the morning and was told by Leng Yi that the seedlings in the woodshed and under the straw shed had been loaded onto trucks and taken away.

Xiaozhou Village and Lushui Village are not far away, and can be reached by ox cart in half an hour. Wang Dahu and his four brothers drove two ox carts to the Li family courtyard at dawn, with a large bundle of straw ropes carried on a long shoulder pole.

This was done in case the ox cart wasn't big enough to carry the load, so they would carry it back on their shoulders.

Because it was too early and it was still dark, Leng Yi, who was on duty in the yard, automatically did not wake up Li Changle who was sleeping soundly in the room.

As soon as Wang Dahu and his brother arrived, Leng Yi asked them to take all the seedlings away. According to Li Changle's instructions, they were asked to plant them as soon as they returned, and to come back to get the seedlings at this time tomorrow morning.

So, after Li Changle got up, when Leng told him that the seedlings had been pulled away, Li Changle just nodded to indicate that he knew.

The Wang family and Liu Tiechui's family are both pragmatic farmers. Even though their living conditions have improved, the hardworking nature engraved in their bones has never diminished in the slightest.

She went to the kitchen to boil water and make breakfast.

I got up early today and didn't have any other schedule to rush to, so I started working slowly.

Use a small spoonful of baking soda and mix two kilograms of white flour.

When rolling out the noodles, I was worried that I didn't put enough water. The dough was too hard to roll out, and my wrists were sore from rolling. But I really wanted to eat some alkaline noodles that were chewy and not mushy.

Finally, Leng Yimian, expressionless, silently took the rolling pin handed over by Li Changle.

In the end, it was the strong black-faced guard who took it all.

Li Changle went to the vegetable garden embarrassedly and picked a handful of vegetables.

At worst, we can just put two more poached eggs in this brave man's bowl of breakfast today.

In addition to the noodles, she also steamed the savory scallion rolls.

By the time the scallion rolls were put into the steaming pot, it was already bright outside.

The Li family courtyard has always been quiet, and when she is in it, she often feels like she is in a village.

The bamboo forest hillside is truly a wonderful barrier, blocking out a lot of noise and discussion.

As she doesn't like to have too many entanglements with strangers, she feels more at ease living in such an environment.

There was only one thing I didn't like - it was too close to the mountains, as if wild beasts could break in at any time.

Of course, she also knew that even if she left her door unlocked at night, no bad guys or beasts could get in and cause damage.

There are ambushes everywhere.

I don’t know how those people survive by hiding in various places every day.

She was lost in thought and wanted to open the gate and go out for a walk.

"Madam Young Master! There is someone outside the door." Leng Yi spoke suddenly.

Li Changle paused, then opened the door.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at the woman in front of her who looked somewhat familiar.

The visitor was the second sister-in-law of Hu Liangmu in the village. She was holding a bamboo basket and standing at the gate of Li's courtyard, hesitating.

He raised his hand several times to knock on the wooden door, but put it down again and again.

Just as I was about to leave, I heard a creak and the door opened from the inside.

Mrs. Song lowered her head and looked at her shoes with some shame.

The young lady in the door is really pretty. Although she is not wearing any makeup or fancy clothes, her beautiful face will attract you at first sight.

Li Changle recognized her, because she rarely walked around the village and knew very few faces. So she could remember a few of the few people she had met in the courtyard.

Mrs. Song belongs to the latter category.

"Good morning, Sister Song, what are you doing?"

Li Changle couldn't guess the other party's intention, but the other party was not a stranger, and she was a female villager, so she invited her into the yard and said, "Come in and we can talk."

It's rare for her to invite people into her yard to sit down and have a good chat.

Firstly, the layout of this house is strange. It doesn’t even have a main room. The person living in the front room is probably an even lonelier owner than she is.

Secondly, she had spent most of the previous few months in hibernation, and being in a remote village, even fewer people came to visit. In addition, she had been in the village for a while, and every time she returned to the village, she felt a little more unfamiliar.

What's more, with two unpopular gods standing here, who can stay in the yard?

Li Changle brought Song Ersao to the shed and poured her a cup of hot water.

As soon as Mrs. Song's butt touched the chair, she stood up again, took the cup of water, and said: "Madam Li, you don't have to be polite. I... I just came..."

She put down the water cup and lifted the basket from the ground onto the table. "The wild vegetables such as amaranth and mountain onion are still delicious. I got up early to dig them at the foot of Daqing Mountain. If Madam Li doesn't mind..."

Li Changle took over the conversation naturally before the other person finished speaking, "Don't mind. I can't even recognize these myself. I can't dig them up if I want to eat them. It would be embarrassing if I dig up some weeds. I have to thank Second Sister Song."

The other day, Jiang and her niece-in-law often went to Leshan behind the farm, and they brought all kinds of wild vegetables and spring bamboo shoots to the dinner table to taste.

At this moment, Li Changle just couldn't bear to reject this seemingly harmless and reserved woman.

Sure enough, Mrs. Song's eyes lit up, "Madam Li, if you want to eat more after you finish, I'll go get you some more."

Madam Li smiled and said that she couldn't delay Song Ersao's housework, since she would be living on the farm again in a few days anyway.

Song Ersao fell silent again. Li Changle couldn't stand her hesitation, so he had to ask her, "Song Ersao, why are you here so early? Is there something wrong?"

Could it be that she came here specially to deliver a basket of wild vegetables? She didn't have a deep friendship with this Second Sister Song.

Apart from helping Hu Liangmu deliver tanned animal furs to the courtyard a few times, Li Changle had spoken very few words to Song Ersao.

It's like saying hello when we meet and getting along harmoniously like neighbors.

Mrs. Song bit her lower lip and said, "Madam Li, I...I want to ask, is there any work that a woman can do?"

After saying that, she breathed a sigh of relief, finally saying it out.

"Originally, I could ask my brother-in-law to ask Madam Li or the Wang brothers about this matter, but... after all, they are uncle and sister-in-law, so it's not good to be too casual... So, it's better for me to ask you myself."

"What can Second Sister Song do? Is there any craft she's good at?" Li Changle asked her. "It's not that there's no work. The farm will be hiring workers later, including female workers. But the farm is quite far from the village, so it's not convenient to go back and forth every day. Do you mind?"

Ever since Song Ersao appeared outside the door, she had anticipated that this was probably a scene where she needed a favor from someone.

However, the other party was a widow, and it seemed that she had a widowed sister-in-law and mother-in-law at home. Hu Liangmu's two brothers and father all died in the depths of the Daqing Mountains.

Hu Liangmu is the only adult male in their family now, and the only other child is a little nephew from his eldest sister-in-law's family.

In ancient times, the restrictions on women were strict, not to mention that the other party had a mother-in-law. Li Changle didn't know whether this family was smart enough or not, and whether they were willing to accept their daughter-in-law working outside the home.

But after all, she didn't want to break the survival rules of this era.

Sure enough, Mrs. Song looked hesitant.

"If it's far away, you may have to live in a farm. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it if you get up early and go to bed late every day."

It takes two or three hours to walk from Lushui Village to Leshan Zhuangzi. It’s okay in the morning because it gets brighter as you walk. But it’s not okay in the evening because it gets darker as you walk. If something happens on the way back, who can you blame?

And the whole day is spent on traveling.

She looked at the hesitant and embarrassed Song Ersao and said, "Why don't you go back and discuss it with your family? I have work here, and I can guarantee your safety and accommodation. The salary is not too bad compared to the county.

But you have to solve other problems yourself first."

Mrs. Song lowered her head in silence for a while before looking up with a determined look on her face.

"I came here today to ask Madam Li with the hope of getting lucky. Now that you said so, I must try my best."

"Even if not for myself, I have to save some dowry for my little girl so that she can marry decently in the future..."

After hearing this, Li Changle asked, "How old is your daughter?"

Speaking of her daughter, Song Ersao's face softened, "She is 8 years old in lunar age."

That is, when she is six or seven years old, she starts to worry about her dowry.

The road to saving up for a dowry is really long.

However, it is also a precautionary measure.

She was widowed at a young age. Although Hu Liangmu, her younger uncle, respected his two sisters-in-law, he was still young and had not yet married. His family was really not well off financially.

Starting from the beginning of the year, Hu Liangmu suddenly came to his senses. He changed his previous solitary nature and was willing to follow Wang Jia and Hu Chunshan to pick up some work.

But I didn't expect that I would get a lot of benefits from it.

Mrs. Song thanked Li Changle solemnly and left the courtyard with her empty bamboo basket.

System timely broadcast:

"Ding! The host has received the gratitude of the villagers of Green Water Village, and the system rewards +1 contribution point.

Current contribution points: 4251. ”

I haven't even decided whether to come to work yet, but the reward has already arrived...

The stove was turned off, and the steamed flower rolls were soft and nice, although they were not all the same size. Li Changle also blanched a plate of wild amaranth, added minced garlic and sesame oil, and made a cold amaranth dish, and breakfast was ready.

Yu'er went to bed early last night and probably slept for more than 12 hours. Li Changle came into the room and started tickling him, waking him up.

"Hurry up, little lazy idiot. Mommy will take you out to play."

It is much better to have my mother calling me to wake up than having others calling me to wake up, and it helps to alleviate my morning grumpiness a little.

After washing up, the clumsy guy combed the little girl's hair. He tied it into a high ponytail, tied it into a bun, and then tied a bow with a small floral headband.

Li Changle looked very happy. If the craftsmanship was not good enough, the hair accessories could make up for it.

Let the little girl eat breakfast by herself. She filled the thermos cups of the mother and daughter with water, washed the fruits and put them on plates, and prepared some snacks and placed them all in the basket.

After the little girl finished eating, Li Changle gave her a small stool to carry.

The mother and daughter each wore a plain sun hat, changed into old shoes and trousers and skirts that were convenient for working in the fields, carried a small hoe on their shoulders, and went together to the two fields under the bamboo forest and hillside.

Eat and sleep, sleep and play, she was a little fed up with the little girl living such a carefree life every day.

As the elder brother, Li Shixi has already embarked on the path of diligent study, so the little girl has to find something to keep her busy so that she can experience the hardships of "hoeing the field at noon, sweat dripping onto the soil".

She automatically ignored the joy of the small stools and snacks she provided for her daughter.

Leng Yi followed them, holding the seeds in one hand and a food basket in the other.

I was speechless and complained in my heart, is he going to take his little lady to work in the fields?
