Chapter 554 Inquiry
Ding Qiuyue forced a smile and calmly withdrew her hand.
You know exactly what kind of life you are living.
How can being a concubine be glorious? How can it be compared with being a proper daughter of a rich family? Haha, only an ignorant person would say that.
Zhao Ming wears gold and silver, and owns all kinds of jewelry including gems, pearls, and jade. She is a real rich lady.
All she had were a few pieces of silver jewelry and three or four modest pieces of clothing.
The personal maids serving Zhao Ming were more glamorous than her and earned more monthly wages than her.
However, she didn't dare to ask for more, otherwise the lady would not let her go.
Mr. Zhao is an old man who is nearly fifty years old. Being a concubine to such an old man makes people feel even more unhappy.
However, she happened to run into Mr. Zhao on the market that day, and Mr. Zhao fell in love with her again, and her parents agreed. What could she do?
Fortunately, no matter what happens, it is much better than working hard in the fields every day and only eating meat a few times a year. Other things can be endured if you endure it.
This was the only way she could comfort herself.
Having not been home for several years, the mother and daughter had endless private conversations.
But when it was time to eat, what was served on the table was bland cabbage with little oil, and a small dish of bacon that was specially steamed because of her return. Ding Qiuyue couldn't get used to it.
She had two dishes and one soup for every meal at the Zhao residence, one meat and one vegetable. Sometimes, when the lady was happy, she would reward her with one or two dishes, which was much better than this.
Now, while eating this food, I feel that it is totally inedible.
Ding Qiuyue felt sad and self-deprecating in her heart, it turned out that she had long been accustomed to life in the Zhao Mansion and could no longer bear the hard life in the past!
She reluctantly ate half a bowl of rice and then put down her chopsticks.
I was not used to the washing, dressing and accommodation at night.
This made Ding Qiuyue not want to stay any longer. She thought about finishing the tasks assigned by the master and leaving as soon as possible.
On the day Ding Qiuyue returned to the village, Qiao Xuan asked Taotao and Yang Xiaoni to take Chunyu, Chunfen, Xiaoman and Daman to make lipstick in the flower field. She and Xiaoqi led Lixia and Liqiu to pull up the tea seedlings in the garden one by one, tied them into bunches with straw cores, and then transported them to Zhangjia Village for planting.
After Qiao Xuan's promotion, the tea seedlings have grown to more than half a meter tall and are very strong. The main stem is straight, the branches are full, and the appearance is very good.
At least no one in the Shao family's main branch had ever done anything like breeding tea seedlings. Furthermore, the work was carried out in the garden, where few people could come on weekdays. Therefore, no one would find it strange that the tea seedlings grew so fast.
It rained yesterday and it stopped today, which was rare. Although the sky was still a little cloudy, Qiao Xuan knew that it would not rain today and most likely would not rain tomorrow, and there might be rain the day after tomorrow.
It’s the perfect time to plant the tea seedlings.
So they got up early in the morning, just as it was getting light, and started working.
After breakfast, the first batch of tea seedlings were delivered to Zhangjia Village.
Her own servants, plus twenty people hired from Zhangjia Village, planted the trees one by one according to her plan, and it would be done in three days at most.
This year's tea seedlings will certainly not fill all the land, but they should be able to fill about half of it.
It will be fine if we just grow seedlings again next year.
After all, knowing where the Golden Buds and Purple Flowers were in the mountains, she only needed to use her supernatural powers to promote their growth, so that more flowers and fruits would bloom and bear fruit, and naturally she could harvest more fruits. A few days ago, she happened to go into the mountains with Xiao Qi and the others.
