Chapter 49, Surprise
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Go back and try it. After washing your face, apply this first, and then apply this." An Qianfu patiently taught her how to use it.
"Remember?"
Han Meng nodded: "I'll remember." He was so obedient.
"Just remember it. I have something else to do today, so I'll leave first."
An Qianqian felt extremely relieved that her important task had finally been accomplished.
Go buy some more things and then take Uncle He’s carriage home.
Even though Uncle He is making money now, his carriage is still running.
He is a hard-working person.
In the blink of an eye, July has passed.
The arrival of August adds a lot of delicious wild fruits to the mountains and forests.
An Qianqian is a person who can't sit still.
She tried last year's cherry wine and it was delicious.
It's not any worse than that 1982 Lafite.
So she decided to brew some more.
So she called her friends and asked them to help her pick cherries.
The cherries in Dangyang are ripe now.
Last year, some of the cherries that were not exposed to the sun were not ripe yet.
"Sister Qianqian, do you want a lot?" If it was less, they could just pick enough, but there were so many mountains around the village, and they didn't know of many cherry villages.
Shitou is a smart man. When Qianqian said she wanted to make cherry wine again, he immediately asked about it.
"A lot, more than last year." She plans to brew more this year.
I don’t know whether Mao Jianwen received her cherry wine, but she brewed the wine herself, and no one knows better than her what is in it and what function it serves.
This stuff becomes more mellow as it ages and won't go bad.
So, there’s no harm in brewing more.
Besides, family members can drink it too.
"If there are a lot, Sister Qianqian, I think we can let other people in the village join in, and then we can buy them." Originally, they helped Qianqian pick the fruits, and Qianqian paid them.
An Qianqian really didn't expect this to happen.
When she heard what Shitou said, she immediately handed the matter over to Shitou.
Shitou was so happy that he patted his chest and promised to complete the task.
So, An Qianqian's plan to go out was thwarted, so she had to open the gate and wait for Yingtao to come home.
I don’t know if it was telepathy, but as soon as Mao Jianwen was forced into a corner, she started brewing wine.
When the villagers learned that the An family was going to collect wild cherries at 1.2 pounds per pound, not only did the children take action, but the adults also did not want to be left behind. They picked up their backpacks and began to look for wild cherries everywhere.
After four or five days, An Qianqian had to call a halt.
Because the house is almost full.
"Look how capable you are. You even collect cherries. Why don't you give us money?" Mother An felt overwhelmed as she looked at the yard full of cherries.
I feel heartbroken.
If Li Yulan hadn't stopped her, she would have used family rules.
"Qianqian, your mother is right. I don't need much to make wine. Isn't this a bit too much?" Li Yulan counted the money she had spent in the past few days and felt distressed.
An Qianqian didn't expect that the villagers would be so proactive.
I originally thought that the children would pick some for me, but I didn't expect that the adults would also join in.
"We won't collect them tomorrow. Mom, please tell the person who comes later." Indeed, these are enough for the house.
Just like last year, wash and dry.
Then put it into jars for fermentation.
Then divide it into several packages and wait for it to settle, and then the wine is ready.
When the villagers learned that cherries were not harvested, they stopped going up the mountain.
The money earned was quite a lot, and everyone who met the An and Mao families was smiling happily.
He also said that he would look for them again next time if there was such a good thing.
After finishing the cherry wine work, the busy farming season begins.
This year the busy farming season coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Boss Zhu has opened several new stores, and the number of chickens he needs is increasing.
At first, you said it was not exclusive.
What is the difference between now and exclusive.
Fortunately, Boss Zhu is a real man. An Qianqian did not suffer a loss. He made money and her price was also raised.
Now the price of Anjia’s chicken has increased by another 50 cents.
But An's mother was so happy.
Looking at the money saved at home, we can see that we have quite a bit of money, so when the time comes, we won't have to worry about not having enough to give Qianqian as a dowry.
As a mother, we all want to give the best to our children.
"Mom, you cook at home today. My brother and others are helping in the fields, so I'll go there." She was still able to do the work of harvesting wheat.
Mother An was not happy at all.
The year's harvest is right in front of her, and she will feel uneasy if she doesn't look at it.
"You should cook at home. It's delicious." It was such a hot day and she didn't want her daughter to suffer.
Both mother and daughter were pushing it away and neither could convince the other.
Finally there was no other choice but to go into battle together.
An Qianqian comes back to cook at noon.
Fortunately, with the help of Mao's family, this year's farming season is not particularly busy.
Of course, after finishing the work in the An family’s fields, they went to the Mao family.
The Mao family had more land than the An family, so they were placed at the back.
This time, An Qianqian couldn't win over her mother-in-law, so she asked her to turn the rice, dry it at home, take care of the children and cook.
In order to not let everyone who worked suffer a loss, An Qianqian killed two chickens from her own garden and bought ducks from the village. She ate chickens and ducks for every few days she worked.
If no one was there to cook fish, she would have wanted to cook fish.
The busy farming season is finally over and the Mid-Autumn Festival is here.
The two families become one and celebrate the reunion together.
The only regret is that Mao Jianwen is not at home.
"Qianqian, why don't you go and see Jianwen." At night, thinking about Mao Jianwen who had not returned for half a year, Mother An spoke to her daughter.
An Qianqian had never thought about it. She said she would go to see him, but she didn't really want to go.
She had been so busy these days that she had really forgotten about Mao Jianwen.
"That's not a good idea." It was true that they were engaged, but they hadn't gotten married yet. She went to find him right away. She didn't expect that her mother had such an open mind.
Her birthday is coming soon, and she will be nineteen this year.
"There's nothing wrong with it. Since you two are planning to be together, mom is not an unenlightened person. If he can't come back, then you can go and see him." She can do all the housework by herself.
I'll pay my grain tax in a few days, and everything will be fine for the year after that.
As for the chickens, Boss Zhu came to catch them and the money was paid at home, so she had nothing to worry about.
"Let me think about this." An Qianqian was actually not ready yet.
She and Mao Jianwen had only been in love for half a month, and then he returned to the team. After so much time had passed, she felt that the love they had for each other was fading away.
Mother An may have seen that her daughter did not value her son-in-law, so she brought up this matter.
It is true that no one knows a daughter better than her mother.
···
"Mengmeng, why are you dressed like this? Aren't you afraid of getting a rash?" Han Jia.
Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunion.
The relatives who were away from home returned home one by one to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with the old lady.
Among those who came back were Han Meng’s aunt and uncle.
"Aunt." Han Meng was wearing the most fashionable clothes her aunt and her family brought back from Guangzhou.
In the past, when she wore these clothes, she would put on a very thin coat on the outside to avoid allergies.
But it’s different now. She used it twice a day in the past few days and finally used up what Qianqian gave her.
One day, she tried it and found that she was no longer allergic to those hairy things. She was so excited that she even cried.
My dears, the data is lost, lost, woohoo, the author fainted in the toilet crying.
