Chapter 566 Persimmon
Ning Mianmian has always been confused and she finds it magical.
She even wondered if her parents were once from a noble family, but were later exiled for some reason?
Of course this is just her guess.
Anyway, she knew that her parents were very good and Shaojing was also very good to her.
So she couldn't say anything careless and remind her parents of the past.
Shen Shaojing was rather careless in this regard and didn't think much about it at all. He said proudly, "Of course, my sister is the best. No one can compare to her."
Ning Mianmian found it a little funny. Shao Jing was really a sister-con.
But don't mention Shen Shaojing, she herself also likes her sister.
I couldn't help but want to get closer to my sister.
I always feel that I can learn a lot from my sister.
Sometimes even a single word from my sister can make people understand a lot of things.
Shen Shaojing said: "I watched those people eating in the cafeteria, and I felt even more touched."
"So I decided to build the farm in a village near Xilin Town."
"Although our farm doesn't provide meals, at least we get a monthly salary. We can go to the farm to work, and it's close to home, so we can go home for three meals a day."
"Besides, it's not tiring to be on the farm."
Working on the farm, I still have a lot of free time.
"Also, our employment is similar to that in Xinghua Village. Each family will employ at most one person, and we try to spread the workers out as much as possible."
"This way, even one person's wages can support a whole family."
Shen Shaojing's wages were not as much as his sister's.
He still calculated his salary the same as in Xinghua Village, twenty coins a day, and a basic monthly wage of six hundred coins.
However, if the hot pot restaurant business is good, he will also take out a portion of it to give bonuses to everyone.
It is also to encourage everyone to work hard.
Ning Mianmian said, "Let's just group them together with Xinghua Village. This way it will be easier to manage."
Because there is a fixed pattern.
Shen Shaojing and Ning Mianmian drove the carriage towards Xilin Town while talking.
As they walked towards Xilin Town, they could clearly feel that Xilin Town was not as prosperous as the provincial capital.
There were a lot of people on both sides of the street, but everyone was wearing shabby clothes.
Although there are many stalls at the market, the prices they quote are much cheaper.
You can tell something by looking at the appearance of the town.
Fortunately, they traveled fast, and when they arrived at Xilin Town in the middle of the afternoon, it was still daylight.
The two of them went to take a look at Zhuangzi first.
There are also twenty or thirty households living in the village.
When Zhuangtou came out, his clothes had many patches on them, and the weather was a bit cold, so he was still wearing very thin clothes.
They were very respectful when facing Ning Mianmian and Shen Shaojing, afraid of saying the wrong thing.
Very cautious.
Shen Shaojing stated his purpose and said, "Don't be nervous, we are just here to see Zhuangzi."
Shen Shaojing asked questions and everyone answered them seriously.
The head of the village even took them around the village.
Shen Shaojing and Ning Mianmian both thought that this village was very nice. It was very flat, with mountains and water behind it and lush vegetation.
There are really many villages nearby.
The two of them were almost certain to buy the farm here.
But they still need to explore more.
Suddenly, Ning Mianmian pointed to a spot on the mountain and said, "Look, isn't that a persimmon forest?"
Ning Mianmian was excited to see so many persimmon trees.
At this moment, she was thinking of buying the mountain as well.
My sister said that there is actually a lot of food hidden in the deep mountains and forests.
It’s just that there are usually wild animals in the deep mountains, so people don’t dare to go in.
The village head said, "Master, Madam, those persimmons are astringent and not very tasty, so no one picked them. Some of them fell to the ground."
"And some people had severe stomachaches after eating persimmons, so no one dared to eat them."
Ning Mianmian thought this was a good thing.
She felt that no matter how unpalatable the food was, her sister would always be able to turn it into delicious food.
My sister must know all the ways to do it.
At this moment, Ning Mianmian was so excited that she wanted to go back immediately to ask her sister.
But she still held back.
She and Shen Shaojing went up to pick a few and prepared to take them back to taste.
They walked around for a long time and it was getting dark.
They are going to stay here.
Fortunately, there are residents here in the village, and there is also a small house with four rooms.
This is reserved for temporary use by the owner of the farm.
It is just convenient for Shen Shaojing and Ning Mianmian to move in.
In fact, they could have stayed in the inn in town.
But Shen Shaojing felt that staying in an inn was boring. It would be better to live in this small courtyard where he and Mianmian could cook their own meals.
There was some dry firewood piled up in the yard.
The kitchen is very clean, which shows that someone cleans it regularly.
This shows that the people in Zhuangzi pay more attention to cleanliness and are more diligent.
The water in the stove vat is also full.
But there is no food.
But Shen Shaojing and Ning Mianmian originally planned to stay here for one night, so they brought all their belongings with them.
They brought steamed buns with them, which they could eat as their staple food after heating them up in a pot with firewood.
The village head brought his wife over and asked if anyone needed help.
Shen Shaojing said: "It's okay, no need, you guys just go about your business first, and we'll call you if we need you."
The head of the village and his wife then went back.
Shen Shaojing and Ning Mianmian took some things down from the carriage and prepared to cook dinner.
