I open a small shop to support my family

Pushing open the back door of the canteen, it turned out that young seedlings had grown on the open ground. The wheat and corn seedlings were already three inches high. The green crops added color and hope to the land, and the fruit trees had grown to the height of his shoulders. The tender green leaves curled up, Meng Yunshu couldn't help reaching out to touch them lightly, the tiny fluff on the leaves felt a little itchy to the touch.

Meng Yunshu's eyes lit up. He was amazed at the growth speed of the plants in the space. He was full of calculations. It was less than a day before he planted the seeds. He could boldly guess whether the wheat and corn would be ripe on the third day?Will the fruit tree bear fruit?

After being touched by him, the apple tree showed lack of water, and he touched the peach tree next to him, which also showed lack of water. Unbelieving, he touched all the crops one by one.

After learning about the needs of the plants, he carried the bucket and walked towards the nearby pond, where duckweed and lotus root poked out as he expected.

Standing on the edge of the pond, he can easily fill a bucket of water from the pond without any effort, but he encounters difficulties when he wants to lift it up.

He is thin and weak, and his illness is just right. Even if he had done rough work in the original body, he would not be able to lift the water at this moment, so he sighed helplessly. Meng Yunshu had to pour out half of the bucket of water. Now, he easily got up with the water .

The gourd water ladle was left on the ridge. Meng Yunshu picked up the water ladle and poured the water under the tree. The moist soil quickly returned to its original state. When he was about to continue using the water ladle, he stared at the water ladle in his hand. Meng Yunshu resolutely gave up He just carried the bucket and fell to the bottom of the tree, and the speed increased instantly.

Most of the buckets of water were used to water the two trees, and after a dozen buckets of water were brought back and forth, the plants were finally not short of water.

After taking a few more steps and shaking his body, he knew that he couldn't stay in the space any longer, so he hurried out.

He appeared in the yard again. Yu Jinhuai was already awake, and was still working on his bamboo frame. When he heard the movement around him, he turned his head and looked over, only to see Meng Yunshu appearing in front of him with a pale face, and hurriedly dropped the work in his hand. , took two steps forward and helped him to sit up.

Glancing slightly with a frown, he turned and went to the kitchen, and came out again with a bowl of water in his hand.

Seeing him coming out with a bowl, the two dogs at home thought he was holding something delicious, got up from under the jujube tree, wagged their tails and ran to him, raised their heads and stared at him.

The two dogs around his feet made him unable to walk, Yu Jinhuai kicked them with a cold face, and scolded: "Go."

The dog had a good nose and sniffed the air, but found that there was no smell that attracted them, and left with its tail between its feet after being kicked.

Meng Yunshu, who was resting, looked at him when he heard the sound, and seeing the human expressions on the faces of the two dogs, he couldn't help but smile.

Yu Jinhuai walked up to him and handed him the bowl in his hand.

After Meng Yunshu took it, his fingers touched the warm wall of the bowl, and his heart couldn't help feeling warm. He held the bowl and took a sip. The warm water flowed from his mouth to his throat, his stomach warmed up and his heart warmed up at the same time, and he leaned comfortably Sitting on the chair, he narrowed his eyes happily.

Yu Jinhuai caught a glimpse of the emotion on his face from the corner of his eye, and a barely visible smile rose from the corner of his mouth.

Just now when he woke up, he couldn't find Meng Yunshu's figure, so he searched around the house anxiously, just when he was about to go out, he suddenly remembered about the canteen in the plane, and sat in the courtyard with the possibility that he might go to the canteen Waiting for him, sitting still will make him flustered and make him think too much, so he continued to make his bamboo frame, even if he made the frame, he didn't put his mind on it.

When he saw Meng Yunshu appearing, his high-pitched heart was relieved, and his subordinates moved even faster.

It was still early, and the sun had not yet set in the west.

"There are people from the commissary today." Holding the bowl, Meng Yunshu felt the lingering warmth, and said calmly, "I made a fortune, and after two days, the corn I planted in the space is ripe and I'll pick some for you Have a taste with Aning."

"Okay." Yu Jinhuai had never heard of corn as a crop, so he asked, "What is corn?"

After he asked, Meng Yunshu remembered that corn and potatoes had never appeared in this era, and even sweet potatoes were officially promoted by the government a few years ago. Cangnan Village belongs to Weiping Prefecture, not far from the imperial capital Chang'an, so It is faster than other prefectures in promoting crops.

For example, Weiping Prefecture has been eating sweet potatoes for two years, and Jiangnan Prefecture, which is a little farther away, only started planting the year before, not to mention the further northwestern border, where the promotion of sweet potatoes only started last year. The first test site for the promotion of crops.

"Corn is long strips, mature corn is yellow, and the corn kernels are neatly arranged on the corncob like half the size of a bean. After the tender corn is cooked, it is soft and waxy in the mouth, with a touch of sweetness. taste." Meng Yunshu described it to him, and he also became greedy for boiled corn, his favorite food is boiled corn and roasted sweet potatoes.

The former is soft and glutinous, while the latter is sweet and soft, both of which are his favorite.

"You'll know when you eat it." Meng Yunshu said with a smile.

"Ah."

For farmers, as long as it is food, they like it, and they can have an extra way of life in times of famine.

After dinner, while everyone was still asleep, Meng Yunshu, who was sitting on the kang, thought of the rabbit skins that had been turned in the sun at noon. After thinking about it, there was not much he could do in Yu's house, and Yu Jinyue said that it would take a few days. It's winter, and the work in the fields should stop. The livestock in the house are nothing but chickens, dogs and horses. Yu Jinhuai fed them early, and all he can do is cook.

But now, he can take advantage of these few days to make a rabbit fur jacket for Yu Zhining. Wearing it on his body in winter is better than coarse cloth to keep out the wind. Although his clothes making skills are not as good as those of craftsmen, he can make simple styles. Yes, not to mention that he has also learned from bloggers on the Internet, the clothes styles of the ancients are easy to come by.

"Brother Huai, I saw that there are still a lot of rabbit skins at home. I was thinking of making a rabbit skin jacket for Ah Ning, okay?" He looked at Yu Jinhuai who was sitting on the ground washing his feet, with his hands on the quilt, and smiled slightly. He leaned forward to his position and asked.

Yu Jinhuai originally planned to use rabbit skins to make clothes for his little nephew, but in the past he would trouble Aunt Sun to do it. Now, hearing what Meng Yunshu said, he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

Yu Zhining, who was lying in his bed early, heard the two talking about making a rabbit fur coat for him, his dark eyes rolled, and his big and bright eyes shone with anticipation. He asked excitedly: "What if Does Aning make clothes?"

"Yes." Meng Yunshu replied with a smile.

His wind chill was cured last night when the system rescued him, so he slept in the middle tonight, next to Yu Zhining, and the window seat was reserved for Yu Jinhuai.

Touching Yu Zhining's hair, and lovingly touching his cheek, Meng Yunshu asked jokingly, "Does Ah Ning want my little uncle to make clothes for you?"

Yu Zhining dodged his hand shyly, and moved down under the blanket, revealing only bright eyes filled with joy and happiness.

"willing."

His voice was like a gnat, even so, Meng Yunshu still heard it, smiled and patted his head again.

Seeing this scene, Yu Jinhuai, who was sitting on the ground washing his feet, felt a surge of warmth from the bottom of his heart, and the expression on his face gradually softened unconsciously. The scar on his forehead that spread to the end of his eyebrows was not that shocking.

He thought that in the future, he would not have to trouble Aunt Sun to make the clothes for the family, but his husband would do it for his little nephew, as well as for him.

A night without dreams.

-

the next morning.

Yu Jinhuai, who always got up early, dressed and got up lightly as usual, the difference was that when he walked out of the bedroom, Meng Yunshu was still behind him.

He didn't understand why Meng Yunshu got up so early?I wanted to persuade him to go back to the room and continue to sleep, but his eyes were firm and the expression on his face was firm, so he had no choice but to acquiesce that he got up with him.

Pushing open the door of the main room, the cold air from outside hits your face, and you can see the white air in the air while you breathe. There is a thick layer of hoarfrost on the ground in the courtyard. A touch of whiteness, as if split by a sword, separated two worlds.

Meng Yunshu who came out following Yu Jinhuai was blown by the cold wind, shrank his neck reflexively, his hands automatically reached into the sleeves of his clothes to absorb the warmth, looked at the white breath he exhaled, felt the biting cold wind coming, Meng Yunshu stopped walking outside, and stood motionless in the main room.

Yu Jinhuai turned his head and saw his red ears and cheeks from the cold, rubbed his palms together and said, "Go back to the bedroom and call you when I boil the water."

Meng Yunshu knew that he was weak, and he didn't want to take any more traditional Chinese medicine, and he didn't want to burden the Yu family, so he nodded in agreement. It was too cold, and it was not the time for him to show off.

Yu Jinhuai didn't go out directly, but first lowered the thatched curtain hanging on the main room door to block the cold air outside, and the washing rack came in from the outside under the eaves and put it in its original position.

After finishing all this, I went to the kitchen.

The family's money was only one or two yuan left after the last trip to the county seat. Seeing that it was getting colder every day, he didn't plan to go to the Daqing Mountains. He would bring back the cover he had laid down tomorrow. If there were not many prey, he would eat it himself to replenish his body .

Soon, smoke rose from the chimney of the Yu family's kitchen, and the two dogs, Daqing and Dahei, also got into the kitchen and gathered around the stove to warm up.

In previous years, when the weather was cold, Yu Jinhuai would let the two dogs go back to sleep in the main room. This year he also planned to do the same, but there should be a gap in the door of the main room to facilitate their entry and exit.

Back in the bedroom, Meng Yunshu took off his shoes and got on the kang. After a short while, his feet had become icy cold, and he reached the bottom. Because Yu Jinhuai leaned on the pot and boiled water in the kitchen, the heat from the soles of his feet slowly came up. Feeling the warm blanket, Meng Yunshu moved comfortably.

Just as he was about to take off his cotton coat and return to the bed for a while, the wind chime from the canteen rang.

Thinking of his own little money, Meng Yunshu entered the space silently. He thought that the visitor would be Lu Renjia who had an appointment with him yesterday, but he never expected to see an unfamiliar face. He stared at the new guest in a little surprise .

Looks like a rich man, very rich.
