Chapter 364 Cow
Wen Zhenyi was very grateful to Mr. Cheng. Knowing that she bought the cow for milk, he specially bought a pregnant cow for her. Although the risk was much higher, it saved her from waiting for a year.
The Han family took good care of the cows along the way. The loss of the cream was regrettable, but that was not all. There were calves to fill the gap.
Now she can see half-grown calves in her dairy ranch, so she hasn't lost much.
After arriving here, the Han family also took good care of these cows. They were weak when they arrived, but now they are much stronger, which shows their dedication.
After agreeing with the Han family to deliver milk to the store tomorrow, she went to the pig farm again.
After a year of breeding, the number of pigs in the farm has increased exponentially, and the hybrid wild boars are indeed much easier to raise than domestic pigs.
Now Shi Hui and the others are too busy, so Wen Zhenyi has recruited more people in the village.
The dim sum shop also added staff to help make some of the needed items.
Old Mrs. Wen and the others were not idle either. They basically went to help wherever there was a shortage of manpower.
There is no idle person in the village. As long as they are willing to work hard, Wen Zhenyi will give them opportunities to make money.
Boss Wang drank the pearl milk tea, which fulfilled his wish.
Wen Zhenyi's dim sum shop has officially started serving a variety of dim sum, but the quantities are still limited.
Pearl milk tea also officially appeared in the town's shops and became the favorite drink of the townspeople.
"Dangdangdang." The loud sound of gongs broke the tranquility of the village.
Wen Zhenyi and the others put down what they were doing and ran out to watch the fun.
She only saw a yamen runner riding on a tall horse, holding a gong and banging it towards her house.
Wen Zhenyi's face was full of confusion.
The teachers who saw this at the gate of the private school all showed joy on their faces and rushed towards the Wen family's house.
The yamen runner knew Wen Zhenyi: "Miss Wen, is Mr. Shen here?"
“Grandpa Shen is in the private school, I’ll go call him.”
"No need to shout, no need to shout." Shen Xiucai's voice was filled with joy.
The yamen runner saw someone coming and bowed to him: "Old Scholar Shen, I'm here to tell you the good news."
Shen Xiucai became a little excited: "Yes, have the results been announced?"
"Yes, Mr. Shen passed the imperial examination and was the first in the examination."
Shen Xiucai was so excited that he was almost incoherent: "Really, is it really my Han Xing?"
"Of course it's true. The two young masters of the Meng family and the young master of the Lei family also won the prize. Am I not here to tell you the good news?"
The villagers were so happy that their village had another successful candidate.
“Congratulations, Master Shen, congratulations.”
"Brother Shen, you are so lucky."
Old Man Wen and the others also smiled. You know, Chen Hanxing passed the imperial examination and became a juren. If Wen Zhenyi married him in the future, she would become the juren's wife. How could they be unhappy?
Wen Zhenyi showed a bright smile on her face. She never worried that he would fail the exam. During the time they spent together, she would intentionally or unintentionally tell him some modern things.
But these are all things that benefit the country and the people, and I believe they will be useful to him.
She took out a purse she had prepared long ago and handed it to the yamen runner: "Thank you for your hard work."
The yamen runner quickly declined: "I can't accept it."
"Keep it. Just think of it as inviting the brothers in the government office to drink and share in the good fortune."
"I thank Miss Wen on behalf of my brothers." After saying this, he put the purse into his arms and said, "Old Scholar Shen, Mr. Shen asked me to tell you that they are going to Beijing to participate in the Spring Examination and will not be returning."
Shen Xiucai nodded: "I know, thank you for making this trip."
"Then I will go back and report." After saying this, the bailiff jumped on his horse and left.
At this time, Mr. Shen said, "I will treat the whole village to a meal tomorrow, but everyone must come to help, otherwise I, an old man, can't handle it."
Dong Li and the others laughed out loud after hearing this: "There's food here, how could we miss it? We must come, we must come."
Wen Zhenyi originally wanted to treat all the villagers to a meal, but she said it was inappropriate to say so.
After all the people who had congratulated him had left, Shen Xiucai turned to look at Wen Zhenyi and said, "Girl, I have to buy two pigs from you, otherwise we won't have anything to entertain you tomorrow."
“Grandpa Shen, you are still being polite to me.”
Old Man Wen was also unhappy at this time: "That's right, why did you buy it?"
"Okay, we are happy that Han Xing passed the imperial examination. Let's not talk about whether to buy it or not, and we are not afraid of hurting the relationship." Old Lady Wen came out to smooth things over.
At night, Wen Zhenyi sat in his yard, looking up at the starry sky, a smile on his face, and whispered softly: "I told you you can do it."
"One by one." Ma Yinghe walked in carrying some things.
Wen Zhenyi raised his head and looked outside the door: "Mom, why are you here?"
"I saw you sitting in the yard, and I just happened to want to talk to you about something."
"What's up?"
Ma Yinghe sat down next to her and opened the bundle in her hand. There were quite a few things inside. "Xiao Taozi's wedding is coming soon. This is the wedding dress I asked the embroiderer to make for her. Would you like to take a look at it?"
Wen Zhenyi looked at the pomegranates and pomegranate flowers embroidered on the wedding dress. The workmanship was exquisite. The material was also bought in the county town. "It looks very beautiful. The embroiderer's skills are good."
"As long as you think it's good, I don't know if Xiao Taozi will like it."
"She's not picky."
"That's what I said, but I still feel that this child has a hard life."
"Mom, wait for me." Wen Zhenyi went to his room and took out a box.
"What is this?" Ma Yinghe looked at the box in front of her with some surprise.
Wen Zhenyi opened the box and found a lot of things inside. She took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to her.
Ma Yinghe took it and looked at it. There was a deed to a newly built house in the village, the area of which was the same as their old house.
There was also a shop with a house in the town, and the deed to three acres of good farmland.
The names written on it are Zhu Tao and Lin Jie.
"When did you prepare it?"
"I prepared it when they got engaged, but the shop in this town is not big, and these three acres of good farmland are not in our village but in Dongshan Village. I asked the tenant farmers to help take care of it."
"You are very thoughtful. Your grandmother and I are still thinking about how to prepare a dowry for her."
"Although Xiao Taozi and Lin Jie signed a contract to sell themselves, the money they earned from me has long exceeded what I want to give them now."
Ma Yinghe shook her head helplessly: "I don't know what these two kids are thinking. They're not even happy about returning the indenture."
"Don't worry, it won't be too late to return it to them after they have children."
"That's right." Ma Yinghe said this and thought of something: "Yi Yi, I saw someone on the street some time ago."
"who?"
