Chapter 335 Not Going
If we don't sell them, the osmanthus flowers will all fall off after the season. Wouldn't that be a waste?
This money can be said to be free.
It would be a big loss if you don’t take it.
Widow Sun cursed inwardly and could no longer sit still.
So, that day, Uncle Shao said to Qiao Xuan, "Qiao, why did widow Sun's family miss out when you were collecting osmanthus flowers? The whole village has collected them, and they are all relatives in the village. It would be inappropriate to leave out her family alone, right? It would not sound good to let others say that you are bullying a widow."
Before Qiao Xuan could say anything, Fang snorted, "You are such a good-hearted person! That shrew has nothing good to say. If it were me, I'd rather not buy hers! Besides, if she wanted to sell, wouldn't she have said so herself? Which family in the village didn't say they wanted to sell Qiao's property before buying it? Why is she so special?"
Qiao Xuan also laughed and said, "Yes, Dad, what if she still remembers the last quarrel with Mom and refuses to sell it? How embarrassed I would be! If she wants to sell it, she will naturally tell me. If she tells me, I will naturally accept it."
Fang praised: "That's right, Qiao is so sensible, look at how thoughtful she is! If she dares to spread rumors outside that our family bullies her, a widow, I will punish her!"
"And you," Fang said to Uncle Shao unhappily, "Stop giving bad advice! What if they just don't want to sell it? If Qiao goes to their house to tell them, won't they just be interrupted?"
Uncle Shao was speechless and muttered, "We are from the same village after all."
No more words.
After all, I happened to meet the head of the village today and he said this casually after chatting for a while. After all, we are from the same village, and Widow Sun is a widow, pitiful. It is not good to target her family like this, it will make people gossip.
He thought it made sense, and told Qiao Xuan so when he got back.
In fact, he didn't know whether Widow Sun didn't want to sell osmanthus flowers at all. What if that was the case?
Widow Sun waited and waited, but Qiao Xuan still didn't come. She was furious and even more resentful.
".You who bully us orphans and widows, and deliberately target me, just wait for me!"
After a rain, the weather became cooler.
The burning feeling of the sunlight shining on people also disappeared. Although the sunlight was still dazzlingly bright, the scorching temperature it brought had obviously subsided a little.
The sun is still scorching, but it’s not as hot as before.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is the best time to eat crabs.
But now I can only think about it and envy it.
There are crabs in the river, but they are naturally raised river crabs. They are very thin, have almost no meat, and are covered with hard bones.
Qiao Xuan, Shao Xiaoqi, Tao Tao and others specially caught it once. It is impossible to steam such a thin crab, so you can only wash it, chop it into pieces, and then stir-fry it with ginger and scallions.
Just a slight crab taste.
There are no big crabs for sale in the small county town. Some wealthy families who are craving for them ask their housekeepers to go directly to the provincial capital to purchase them.
Qiao Xuan thought that when the tea plantation in Zhangjia Village was established, she would definitely build a fish pond there. It didn't have to be too big, two or three acres would be enough.
By then, there will be all kinds of fish, shrimps, crabs, snails, and clams available, and we can also grow lotus roots and water chestnuts so we can eat them at any time.
Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and it’s time to go back to my parents’ home.
Qiao Xuan is not the only one. All married women will return to their parents' home in advance to give festival and New Year gifts on the two most important festivals of the day, Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year's Eve.
