Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm
Chapter 78 Liping came to visit, a wasted trip
A horse-drawn carriage was rumbling forward on the road leading to Lushui Village.
Li Ping in the carriage lifted the curtain and asked the driver, "Old Yu, how long will it take to get to Lushui Village?"
Old Yu on the shaft of the cart turned around and replied, "Master, we just passed Xiaozhou Village. I heard from Dahu that after Xiaozhou Village, after passing a forest, we will reach Lushui Village. We are almost there."
Li Ping lowered the carriage curtain and put his hands in the sleeve pockets of his cotton jacket. "Oh, it's really cold today. I don't know when the vegetables from Madam Li's house will be available."
As for the rest, he swallowed it back.
Recently, his Wanjia Restaurant has become a hot topic in the county.
The aroma of the braised food overflowed across three streets and sold very well every day. If it weren't for the temporary shortage of braised ingredients, he would have asked his eldest son to open a branch in the south.
Colleagues gritted their teeth in hatred.
Not only that, there are also various vegetables in limited supply.
The store has a clear rule that vegetables are not taken out, simply because the store doesn’t have enough of them.
As a result, the wives of the wealthy and small families had to pay more than just the money for a plate of vegetables.
For a while, the entrance of Wanjia Restaurant on West Second Street was bustling with the hustle and bustle of traffic.
However, the vegetable basket in the kitchen was empty yesterday, and Wang Dahu did not deliver any vegetables this morning. He was indeed missing the two bamboo baskets of fruit that Madam Li had given him twice before.
80 taels!
Just two fruit baskets earned him 80 taels of silver!
Of course, he couldn't dream of this being a no-cost business.
However, if there is a source of goods, he is willing to pay for it!
There was a basket of grapes and apples behind him, but he didn't even have a chance to taste them before he was dazzled by the fifty taels of silver that was thrown at him.
He had to ask Madam Li if he could get some of the fruit. Half of the ten people who came to the restaurant to eat would not be short of money for food.
In Lushui Village, in the greenhouse next to the Li family courtyard, Hu Dexian squatted in the sweet potato field, his head almost down to the ground, pulling up the scattered weeds next to the sweet potato seedlings.
"There aren't many weeds here, but the sweet potato seedlings are growing well..."
"It's strange. I don't know where they got the seedlings from..."
Then, I thought about the news my youngest son had brought back from the farm in the past few days...
Muramasa has a reverent heart. If one said a month ago that he hoped things would get better next year, then he was just holding on to hope.
Now that he says he hopes things will get better next year, he can already see hope for Lushui Village.
Look at the sweet potato leaves covering the ground in winter. The villagers of Lushui Village will plant them in spring.
There are quite a few such sandy and gravel fields behind Lushui Village. There are not as many gravels as here, so it is definitely suitable for growing sweet potatoes.
The more Hu Dexian thought about it, the more relieved he felt. He sat beside the greenhouse and looked at the green ground. He didn't want to go home.
"Dad? Dad?"
"Hey, what's going on here?"
When Hu Dexian heard Hu Chunxing calling her, she walked out of the greenhouse and closed it.
"I was just wondering what you are doing. You have been guarding this shed all day. Is there any gold or silver in it? Do you still remember that you are a village master?"
Hu Dexian didn't like what he heard. "What do you know? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
Because they didn't tell the villagers, no one knew what was in it, and they didn't know that their village chief had already reserved enough sweet potato seedlings for the entire village from Li Changle.
In addition, with the presence of the great god Gu Jingyan, with his two-meter-eight aura, few people usually come to the Li family courtyard.
Hu Chunxing curled her lips and pointed to the gate of the small courtyard next door. "Dad, someone from the county came to ask about Madam Li. I don't know where she is, but you and second brother definitely know."
Seeing her father looking at her in confusion, Hu Chunxing smiled proudly, "I heard you and my second brother talking about the farm and the job."
Hu Dexian was relieved to see that she didn't hear anything about the iron lump or anything like that, but he still had to talk to his younger son, telling him not to mention these things so often, as he might hear something.
He walked a few steps to the gate of the Li family courtyard. Li Ping was wearing a thick cloak and waiting at the door with his hands in his sleeves.
When he met Hu Dexian, Li Ping first bowed and introduced himself, "You must be the village chief of Lushui Village, right? I am Li Ping, the owner of Wanjia Restaurant in the county. Sorry to bother you."
Hu Dexian's eyes gleamed, and he turned around to send his daughter away. "Go back and tell your mother to quickly boil a pot of water and make a pot of hot tea for Shopkeeper Li."
Li Ping was about to say forget it, but Hu Dexian glared at his daughter who was pricked up to listen, "Are you not going yet?"
After Hu Chunxing walked away reluctantly, looking back every few steps, Hu Dexian smiled and bowed to Li Ping, "Shopkeeper Li is so polite. My daughter Yan said, are you here to see Madam Li?"
Li Ping: "Oh, yes, I heard she is not at home. Brother Muramasa, do you know where Madam Li went? When will she be back?"
Hu Dexian shook his head. "I don't know when he will be back, but he should be back in the next few days. Why is Shopkeeper Li so anxious?"
Hu Dexian was no fool. He knew that Li Changle must have found some way to make a living in the county. He saw that the Wang family was running around for the Li family's courtyard.
Hu Chunshan came back and said that the Wang family would move to Xiaozhou Village soon, and the contract was for ten years or more.
If a person is alert, he will have a bright future.
Behind Lady Li is the conquering general of the Great Yan Dynasty.
Li Ping listened to Hu Dexian's question without thinking too much, "In the past, Wang Dahu from your village would deliver a truckload of vegetables to the restaurant every two days. He should have delivered it yesterday, but he hasn't been seen until this morning."
"We are open for business, but we can't do business without ingredients."
This is not an exaggeration. Nowadays, nine out of ten guests who go to Wanjia Restaurant for dinner will order a plate of vegetables.
"Vegetables..." Hu Dexian opened his mouth, wanting to say that at this time of year, a truckload of vegetables could be delivered to the restaurant every few days. Was he talking about this Madam Li from his Lushui Village?
Suddenly, he turned around and walked a few steps to the first shed next to the courtyard. The back half of the shed was separated from the front.
The side door is opposite to the side door of the courtyard.
Hu Dexian suddenly realized, could it be...
"Brother?" Li Ping chased after him.
Hu Dexian came back to his senses from his incredible speculation.
"Manager Li, Madam Li is not in Green Water Village these days. If you want to discuss matters with her, you can go there by yourself."
Li Ping asked anxiously: "Where can we find it?"
Hu Dexian directly told the person the address his son had given him, "Leshan Manor."
Li Ping was a little stunned when he heard this.
"But... the Leshan Manor on the outskirts of the county?"
"Exactly!"
A moment later, before Li Ping had even finished drinking the hot tea that Hu Chunxing had asked her mother to make, he hurriedly climbed onto the carriage waiting on the village road and urged the driver, Lao Yu, "Hurry up, hurry up, go back to Leshan Manor."
Oh, he had spent most of the morning riding in a horse-drawn carriage to get to Lushui Village, but the person he was looking for was just out on the outskirts of the county, a few steps away from his restaurant.
He didn't know yet that his carriage would have to make another trip to Lushui Village before noon.
