Chapter 72 The little cub with a strong desire to survive
Jiang Tangtang had no idea that someone was eyeing her and wanted to make her a stepmother to her own children. She was currently discussing hiring workers with Lu Shiyan.
Although I haven't consulted any books yet, I must set up a rubber plantation.
Although there are many people in the family, Lu Shiyan needs to treat his leg, Lu Shili's leg injury has not healed yet, and Mrs. Lu of the Su family and others can't do farm work at all.
"How much money is left at home?" Lu Shiyan was thinking about how to make some money to supplement the family expenses so that he could not put all the burden of the family on his wife.
Jiang Tangtang saw what he was thinking and said with a smile, "It's enough to hire workers. Don't worry about it. Wait for Doctor Xue to prepare the necessary medicine, and then you can focus on treating your leg! Once your leg is healed, you can help me share the burden."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the wasteland.
With the diligent work of He Qiuniang and Hu Dangui, a large piece of land has been opened up.
After seeing this, Jiang Tangtang became interested. "This land is quite fertile. Why not use it to grow vegetables first?"
He Qiuniang was surprised and said, "How can vegetables survive in the middle of winter?"
Jiang Tangtang has the blessing of the spiritual spring, so she doesn't worry about the vegetable seeds not surviving.
But she wasn't quite sure. "Let's try planting it! Sow the seeds, water them, and cover them with weeds to keep them warm. If they grow, we won't have to eat wild vegetables every day. If they don't, it's just a waste of a packet of seeds."
He Qiuniang admired him and said, "Madam, you really have a solution. But I've never grown vegetables in winter before. I don't know what vegetables to plant."
When Jiang Tangtang opened the farm stay, he bought a lot of vegetable seeds, but they were all cultivated in modern times, and many vegetables were not available in this era.
So she simply said, "I went to the city yesterday and bought some seeds from a traveling merchant. I don't know what kind of vegetables they are, but I'll find them later and plant them and try!"
He Qiuniang thought about Jiang Tangtang's identity, and did not doubt her statement that she could not recognize the vegetable seeds. She just nodded and said yes.
Jiang Tangtang watched them digging the ground with hoes, feeling how hard it was. Thinking of the diesel tiller in the space, she sighed deeply inwardly.
It's really frustrating to have a treasure trove but not be able to use it.
However, looking at the terrain of this wasteland, Jiang Tangtang quickly came up with an idea.
The land is flat. If we make a plow like a tiller and use oxen to pull it to plow the land, it would be fine.
Jiang Tangtang was so excited that she immediately wanted to find someone to make the plowshares.
However, she had caused trouble yesterday when she went to the county town, so she couldn't go to Manager Xia again. Just as she was worrying about it, she saw Su running towards them in a hurry, saying as she ran, "Tangtang, go home quickly, there are guests."
Jiang Tangtang was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that it was Chu Mingyu coming.
She said to Lu Shiyan, "Yesterday I discussed a business deal with the owner of a silver shop. I'm afraid she's here to look for me, so I'll go back first!"
"Then I'll go back with you!" Lu Shiyan took the children and was going home with Jiang Tangtang. He was holding a few turtledoves in his hands, which he had just taught his two sons to shoot with a slingshot.
Jiang Tangtang saw that her two sons' eyes were shining like stars. It was obvious that they were having a great time playing with their father. She felt a little reluctant to deprive them of their happy time. "It's okay. Take the children to play."
"That's right! Brother Lu, the kids are having a great time! If you're worried about not being able to take care of them, I can help you. I'm very good at taking care of kids."
Ge Hongxia had been trying to please the three children, but the two Lu Jingcheng brothers were like two ice cubes, ignoring her completely. Now she finally found an opportunity and hurriedly tried to persuade them.
Jiang Tangtang narrowed her eyes, as if sensing her mother's dangerous gaze. The siblings said with a strong desire to survive, "Daddy, we don't want to play anymore. We want to go home with Mom."
As they spoke, the siblings ran towards Jiang Tangtang. Even Lu Jingcheng, who was usually cold and didn't like to get close to her, held her hand affectionately today.
Jiang Tangtang smiled, glanced at Ge Hongxia lightly, and left with the children.
However, Lu Shiyan didn't even look at Ge Hongxia. He turned around and followed Jiang Tangtang, as if he didn't hear what she said or see her existence at all.
Ge Hongxia's face flushed red, she was both angry and humiliated!
Jiang Tangtang returned home with the child. Chu Mingyu was sitting in the yard, drinking tea with Mrs. Lu.
Chu Mingyu didn't expect Jiang Tangtang to have such an identity. He was surprised, but also understood.
If he wasn't from the capital, how could he have such vision and knowledge?
As for Jiang Tangtang's identity as an exiled criminal, Chu Mingyu did not look down on them like the local villagers. Instead, she felt pressured by Madam Lu's hospitality, and she also respected Jiang Tangtang a little more.
If the wife of the Crown Prince of the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion had not been exiled, as a businessman like her, she would probably never have been able to meet her in this lifetime.
"Sister Jiang, I hope I won't disturb you by coming here today!" Chu Mingyu took the initiative to change to a more intimate name.
"No, didn't we make an appointment a long time ago?" Jiang Tangtang smiled and said, "It's my fault, I should have waited for you at home."
"I didn't tell you when I'd come, so how could I let you wait at home?"
After exchanging pleasantries, the two of them got down to business. Jiang Tangtang took out the design drawings she had drawn this morning, handed them to Chu Mingyu, and said, "If there's anything you don't understand, ask me."
Chu Mingyu held the blueprint and said excitedly, "What kind of pen did Sister Jiang use to draw this? Why is it different from what I usually see? This... this is too real, it's like the shop has been repaired and it's right in front of me."
She was so surprised that Lu Shiyan couldn't help but feel curious. He took a look at the drawing in Chu Mingyu's hand. After seeing the drawing clearly, he also showed a surprised expression.
This kind of realistic painting style is also the only one he has ever seen in his life.
His wife seemed to have many little secrets and could always surprise him unexpectedly.
Facing Lu Shiyan's inquiring gaze, Jiang Tangtang said with a slight sense of guilt, "I just drew it with charcoal."
She stroked the hair by her ear and said a little embarrassedly, "When I was little, I was naughty and didn't complete the homework my teacher assigned me seriously. Only when I needed it did I regret not studying hard. But by then it was too late to regret it. I had no choice but to come up with this random painting method."
"Sister Jiang is too modest. You are not messing around." Chu Mingyu said, "Your drawing is so clear. I can understand it without any explanation."
"I feel relieved that you can see it clearly!" Jiang Tangtang said with a smile.
After getting the drawings, Chu Mingyu was so excited that he didn't stay for long and hurried away with the drawings.
This was the only novel shop she had ever seen in her life. She had a hunch that if the shop was decorated according to Jiang Tangtang's drawings, it would definitely attract a lot of customers.
By then, with the addition of Jiang Tangtang's newly designed jewelry, the shop will definitely be revived.
