Chapter 31 Su Tai Enters the City
After reading this, Su Tai jumped up with joy, and bought some seedling raising media tools, first raising the seedlings, and then planting the vegetable seeds.
Over the next few days, she spent most of her time working in the Earth Time and Space, and by the time she finished her work, it was already March.
The snow was not thick this year, and the land thawed as soon as it was supposed to. The ditches in Zhongmen Village were also almost dug, and water was successfully brought to the fields. Zeng Kuan also brought the villagers to express his gratitude.
The fields are well watered and it is almost time to start sowing.
Su Chunlinxing and a group of villagers happily took their money to the town to buy grain seeds, but it turned out that a pound of grain cost 60 wen, and a pound of grain seeds cost over 100 wen, so the villagers simply could not afford them.
A group of people were arguing with the waiter outside the grain shop, but they attracted Mr. Ma.
"Get out! Get out! How can we buy food without money? You are all poor beggars!" Mr. Ma cursed and shouted, venting all the anger that had accumulated over the past year.
The two sides had a big fight, and Mr. Ma naturally would not sell the grain seeds to them.
The villagers who returned empty-handed were all gloomy-faced and each was thinking of a way out.
Su Chunlin returned home and made an important decision, "I decided to go to the county town to ask my eldest brother for help to buy grain seeds. Who of you will go with me?"
Everyone was stunned.
"Dad, why is this?" Su Zhan asked curiously.
Su Chunlin angrily scolded Mr. Ma and let the whole family know how outrageous the price of grain outside was.
Han rushed into the house and took a look at the grain jar, worried, "Our family's grain is almost gone, sixty or seventy cents a pound, we can't afford it!
We have eight acres of good farmland, six acres of poor farmland, and two acres of sandy field. We need to prepare at least 160 kilograms of grain seeds."
Han didn't even dare to think about how much these grain seeds would cost.
Su Tai thought that the wheat in the Earth Time and Space would be ready for harvest in about half a month, so she was not in a hurry. She looked at Su Chunlin and said, "Dad, let mom and brother take care of the land at home. I'll go with you to take a look."
Han was the first to support, and now she fully trusted Su Tai's abilities.
Before dawn the next day, the father and daughter went to the town and took a ox cart to the county seat. If it was just Su Chunlin alone, he would definitely walk by himself, but since Su Tai was there, he gritted his teeth and took the ox cart to prevent his precious daughter's legs from being crippled.
The two arrived in Zhaohua County at sunset.
When Su Tai first arrived in the county town, he was curious about everything he saw. This place was obviously more prosperous than Moshi Town. Brick and tile houses could be seen everywhere. Even ordinary people could afford to live in a brick and tile courtyard, but it was a little smaller.
There are two rows of shops on the street, and it is quite prosperous.
She followed Su Chunlin silently, taking in everything, without saying a word.
After many twists and turns, the father and daughter finally arrived at a large mansion owned by a wealthy family.
Su Tai looked up at the tall courtyard wall and asked curiously, "Dad, is this where my uncle lives?"
Su Chunlin made a gesture to keep quiet, and took Su Tai to a small door. He knocked twice before someone opened the door.
Su Chunlin immediately put on a flattering smile, "Little brother, I'm looking for your groom Su Chunsen. I'm his younger brother Su Chunlin."
The other party obviously remembered Su Chunlin. He glanced at him and nodded indifferently, "Wait, I'll go in and look for him."
With a bang, the small door closed.
The two waited for quarter of an hour before someone came.
The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man who looked about 60% like Su Chunlin, but looked more stable and wealthy than Su Chunlin.
As soon as Su Chunsen saw his brother, he looked worried, "Why did you come here at this time?"
After he finished speaking, he noticed Su Tai standing in the corner. He blinked hard and exclaimed, "Is this Xiao Tai?"
"Uncle." Su Tai called him obediently.
Su Chunsen was more and more surprised, "Xiaotai can recognize people now?"
"Brother, it's a long story." Su Chunlin felt a little embarrassed. The last time he came to Su Chunsen to borrow money, he only talked about bad things in order to play the victim, and didn't mention Su Tai's recovery at all.
The two were taken by Su Chunsen to a side room in the courtyard behind the Bai Mansion to rest.
When Su Chunsen learned about what Su Tai had been going through during this period, he just looked serious but not angry.
"Since the Xiong family is immoral, the marriage is over, and it's not a bad thing! The important thing is that the child's illness is cured!"
Su Chunlin smiled and nodded, "Brother is right. Last time I came here, I was unsure and didn't dare to tell you because I was afraid you would worry. Now that Xiaotai is completely well, I brought her here!"
Su Chunsen glared at his brother speechlessly, "I know what kind of person you are! Tell me, what's going on this time?"
Su Tai glanced at Su Chunlin secretly, very curious about Su Chunsen's attitude towards him.
Su Chunlin had no time to care about his daughter who was watching the show. He quickly told her everything. "Brother, I have no choice but to come to you for help. Can you see if we can buy some cheaper grain seeds in the county?"
When Su Chunsen heard that it was such a big deal, he immediately patted his thigh and said thoughtfully, "Tomorrow I will ask the purchasing manager in the mansion, or I will ask the master for help. Anyway, the Bai family has many farms and grain shops. The people in the mansion must buy grain cheaper than outside. I just don't know how much I can buy."
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry to have caused trouble to big brother again." The heavy stone in his heart fell, and Su Chunlin's mouth felt as sweet as honey.
Su Chunsen shook his head repeatedly, obviously unable to do anything about his younger brother.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and a young girl walked in.
Her every move was just like the ancient women in TV dramas, and Su Tai was stunned for a moment.
Su Yu called for someone when she entered the room, and then she looked at Su Tai, smiling, "Uncle, this must be Xiao Tai! When I heard that Xiao Tai was coming, I immediately asked the young lady for a favor and came to see her. I guess I will be here later."
Su Chunsen frowned slightly, "Who told you that?"
Su Yu pursed her lips and chuckled, "Dad, have you forgotten the relationship between Awang and my eldest brother who are guarding the back? With Awang here, can we two brothers and sisters still be kept in the dark?"
Su Chunsen held his forehead helplessly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Su Yu understood and said, "I heard that my mother was sent out by the Madam to do some work today, so she probably hasn't come back yet!"
Su Chunsen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yu stopped looking at her father and instead fixed her gaze on Su Tai. After sizing her up for a few seconds, she praised, "Sister Tai is really pretty and doesn't look like a country girl at all."
Su Tai came back to her senses and acted obediently and shyly, "Cousin."
"Hey!" Su Yu smiled even more deeply and asked Su Tai many questions about Dongmen Village. Seeing that Su Tai spoke clearly and her eyes were clear, he liked her more and more and did not let go of Su Tai's hand until Su Chuan came over.
Su Tai looked at her cousin Su Chuan in front of her curiously. He was handsome, with smart eyes, even a little cunning. He had only been in the room for a quarter of an hour, but he had already made Su Chunlin smile, and was also warm and considerate to her cousin whom she had never met before.
