Chapter 445 Qin Eryong's Idea

Have a good night's sleep.

When Zhang Juexia woke up, it was already noon. Ye Beixiu left her a note, telling her that he would come back early in the afternoon to accompany her and asked her to have a good rest at home.

When Li Yun heard the noise, he brought her some food.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Juexia began to pack up the things she brought from Qingfeng City, sorting them into different categories.

At the same time, she put the gifts prepared for her family together, labeled them, and asked Ye Beishan to help take them home when he came.

She also packed up the gifts for Shopkeeper Li Xi and Aunt Wang, and prepared to let Ye Beishan take them back.

After finishing these, she began to distribute the gifts. Now everyone in the family received one, even the young clerk who had just joined the shop a few days ago.

Li Yun couldn't help but complain, "Madam, it's really not easy for you to go out. How come you brought back so many things?"

"They are not valuable things, but they are just a token of my appreciation."

"Otherwise everyone would envy us. Having a good master is better than anything else."

Zhang Juexia felt a little embarrassed by Li Yun's praise. These were just small favors from her, and she just wanted them to work hard.

Zhang Juexia didn't want Li Yun to praise her anymore, so she quickly changed the subject, "Sister-in-law Yang, have there been any unusual events in our town during the few days I've been away?"

Li Yun thought for a moment and said, "It's not surprising that I didn't obey. It's just that Miss Li Yiran came to see you twice, but she came back disappointed each time.

But I heard from Mrs. Xu that she is getting a divorce!"

Zhang Juexia knew that Li Yiran was asking for a divorce, and he just nodded to indicate that he understood.

Li Yun looked around and lowered his voice, "I heard from Mrs. Xu that the Li family is serious this time. They said that since the divorce is finalized, they will no longer indulge that scholar.

It sounds like they're ready to fight to the death."

Zhang Juexia was very concerned about Li Yiran. "Sister Yang, what was Miss Li's expression like when she came to see me?"

"It's okay! I didn't look closely. Anyway, her incident was so serious that she never looked happy every time she came.

But, having said that, no one would be happy if they encountered such a troublesome thing."

"Um."

Seeing that Zhang Juexia was not in a very good mood, Li Yun changed the subject again. She told Zhang Juexia, "Madam, the master was unhappy every day during the few days when you were not at home. But when he learned that you were back yesterday, he smiled like a child.

You didn't see how happy he was, spinning around in circles in the yard."

The more Li Yun spoke, the more he wanted to laugh. He couldn't hold it back any longer and started laughing.

Zhang Juexia also laughed, imagining what Ye Beixiu would look like spinning in circles.

Just as the two were laughing heartily, Li Le came in with Qin Eryong.

The two grown men stood there stupidly, not knowing whether to continue moving forward or backward.

Zhang Juexia laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. She raised her head and saw them, and quickly gestured to them to go to the living room and wait for her.

With the help of Li Yun, she packed up and went to the living room to meet them.

"Sister Yang, ask the kitchen to cook more food."

Li Yun understood and said, "I'll arrange it right away."

Zhang Juexia entered the living room, and Li Le and Qin Eryong quickly stood up. After exchanging some pleasantries, everyone prepared to take their seats.

Li Le knew that Qin Eryong had something to say to Zhang Juexia, and since the shop in front was busy at the moment, he took the initiative to offer to go and get busy himself.

Zhang Juexia didn't force him to stay, but just told him that he had to accompany Eryong for lunch.

Li Le nodded, bowed to Zhang Juexia, and then trotted to the shop in front.

Seeing that he and Zhang Juexia were the only ones left in the room, Qin Eryong stopped being polite and got straight to business. "Sister-in-law, the two houses in Cuiliu Manor are almost one meter high."

“So fast!”

"With so many people, the speed will naturally be faster. But don't worry, sister-in-law, they won't be lazy and will definitely build the house."

"I'm relieved to have handed all these matters over to you. Tell me, you didn't come to me just to tell me how high the house is!"

Qin Eryong chuckled, "Sister-in-law really understands me. I came here to discuss something with you. Can Cuiliu Manor buy a few cows?"

Zhang Juexia didn't understand why Qin Eryong brought up the idea of ​​buying a cow at this time. She was really confused. "Eryong, do you need a cow to build a house?"

Qin Eryong shook his head repeatedly, "No, sister-in-law, we don't need cows to build a house, but we do need cows to open up wasteland and cultivate the land in the village."

After hearing what Qin Eryong said, Zhang Juexia understood what he meant.

Seeing Qin Eryong pause, she motioned for him to continue.

"It's like this, sister-in-law, I can't help much with building a house in the village.

After arranging the work at hand every day, I would walk around the village. I saw that there were a lot of wastelands in the village, so I asked the village head Liu.

He told me that you had mentioned this before, but they couldn't even cultivate all the good land, not to mention that there was now work to build houses, and all the labor in the family went to help build houses, leaving no one to open up wasteland.

So I went back to our village and invited Uncle Yunhai over.

Originally, I just ran back and forth between the village, town, and county town, and I was quite good at talking.

But compared to farming, Uncle Yunhai is much better than me now.

He told me that the soil in the village is much better than that in our mountains.

If it is wasteland, it would be a shame to leave it like this.

So, I came up with this idea: let's buy some cattle to help open up the wasteland."

Zhang Juexia listened quietly without expressing any opinion.

The more Qin Eryong spoke, the more unsure he felt. After all, one cow cost ten taels of silver, and several cows would cost dozens of taels of silver.

He raised his head and glanced at Zhang Juexia, "Um, sister-in-law, I..."

Zhang Juexia asked him to drink some water to moisten his throat before continuing.

Qin Eryong was obedient and drank the tea in one gulp. "Sister-in-law, this cow, after you buy it, will not only be useful when we are clearing the land, but also when our workshop is built, the people in the village will definitely go to work in the workshop.

These cows can help with the work in the fields, so they will have enough time to work in the workshop."

"What did Liu Zhuangtou say?"

“He naturally thought it was a good thing to have cattle to work.

Sister-in-law, Uncle Yunhai also said that at this time, the wasteland can be used to grow some vegetables.

Our farm is close to the county town. I will organize people to transport the goods to the city to sell, and it will be another source of income for us.

I also thought that after I finish the work in the workshop, I will have to invite Brother Wanfeng to come and ask him about raising chickens, and then I will raise chickens on the farm.

I've already chosen the place to raise the chickens."
