Chapter 259 Looking at the fields
Qiao Xuan also bought five acres of land at that time. She originally planned to build a yard and plant some things. Now that Ding Erzhu and others have come, she decided to build a house to live in.
Qiao Xuan still needs to plan carefully how to build this entire courtyard.
They simply built three wooden houses of moderate size, which would be enough for their family of three to live in temporarily.
Before winter comes, she will finish building the big house and yard. By then, Ding Erzhu and his team will be familiar with the construction and can supervise the work.
At noon, everyone was having lunch at Zheng's house in Zhangjia Village. When Zhang Chunlai and his wife, and Zhang Xiaofeng and his wife heard the news, they hurried over to greet them with a smile.
Shao Yunduan is in charge of all external matters.
In this era, women are easily looked down upon and cannot control the situation; secondly, Shao Yunduan is a scholar, and when he opens his mouth, others will subconsciously be in awe of him; thirdly, Shao Yunduan can still be very intimidating when he has no expression on his face.
Shao Yunduan glanced at the two couples, greeted them, and introduced Ding Erzhu and Zhou to them: "This is my cousin and aunt. They will live here in the future, and they will be in charge of things here. You are familiar with the situation, so help them more in the future."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Zhang Chunlai and the other three changed, especially the two women, who did not know how to conceal their feelings, and their expressions were even more obvious.
"Oh, all right! Don't worry, Boss!"
"Yes, yes, we will help them."
Before, Zhang Chunlai and Zhang Xiaofeng were asked to temporarily take charge of the tenants here. I think the two of them - including their families - must be very happy. After all, although they are all tenants, the managers are completely different from ordinary tenants.
Don’t ordinary tenants have to curry favor with the manager?
The two of them even seemed to be competing with each other, trying to overwhelm the other and determine who was superior.
Unexpectedly, a cousin came today, and they both felt very disappointed.
But after thinking about it, the competitive spirit was gone. He was my uncle, a relative of the employer, and I was just a tenant. What could I use to compete with his relatives?
It would be better to help this cousin honestly - after all, he has just arrived and knows nothing. If he can help say a few good words in front of the boss, wouldn't that be better than anything else?
After thinking about this, the two of them felt better.
Shao Yunduan explained everything clearly and simply asked the two of them to have dinner together at the headman's house.
The two men thanked him profusely and agreed. Of course, their wives did not receive such treatment, so they said goodbye and went back.
After lunch, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan took Ding Erzhu, accompanied by Zhang Chunlai, to the fields to check the growth of the rice.
Crops are the lifeblood of farmers, and they also affect the tenants’ food supply for the year, so everyone takes good care of them and the crops grow well.
Qiao Xuan controlled her supernatural powers and slowly applied them to it.
You can't see anything with the naked eye, but these rice will definitely grow better, be stronger, and be more resistant to diseases and pests.
Looking at the seedlings swaying their soft long leaves, their stretched postures, their full energy and vitality, Qiao Xuan was satisfied.
After a while, Qiao Xuan sent Zhang Chunlai and the other person away.
As she spoke, the two men agreed with her verbally, but subconsciously looked at Shao Yunduan.
Qiao Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw this.
Yes, in the eyes of outsiders, Shao Yunduan is the real boss, and she is just the boss's wife who came to watch the fun.
