Chapter 223 She Has Her Reasons
【So the host can use it with confidence. 】
I see.
Then she could start the mission with confidence. As for the first target of the mission...
Zhuang Qingning looked at He.
He and Zhuang Yonghe trusted her very much, and as long as they said something a little bit...
Zhuang Qingning blinked and asked, "How many beans does my aunt plan to plant this year?"
"I told your uncle about this yesterday, saying that I wanted to plant more." He smiled and said, "Well, with your tofu shop here to support us, there will definitely be more beans planted in our village this year, and these beans will be easier to grow. Secondly, if we plant more beans, the tofu shop will have something to deal with in case it is short of beans."
Sure enough, He and Zhuang Yonghe still thought about her in everything.
Zhuang Qingning felt warm in his heart and asked again, "Are the seeds of that kind of beans ready?"
"It should be about the same," He said, "Originally, I didn't plan to plant so many beans, so I didn't prepare so many bean seeds. These days, your uncle said that when he goes to harvest beans, he will see who has good beans, so he will ask them if they have any extra bean seeds. He brought some back yesterday, so I guess it should be enough."
"I'm afraid that some of the plants won't sprout, so we'll have to make up for it. We'll just have to make do with what we have. If that doesn't work, we'll plant some cotton. When winter comes, I'll make a new quilt for you and Qingsui, so you can keep warm."
"If not, then this is it."
Zhuang Qingning said, "I have got some bean seeds here. They are said to be better than ordinary bean seeds. They sprout faster, sprout more, grow stronger, and produce more beans. Would you like to try my bean seeds?"
"That's great."
He smiled and said, "Your uncle and I were originally discussing whether we should go to town to buy some bean seeds. Fortunately, you said you have good bean seeds. Then we can use yours. We can see how much we need and buy as much as we can from you."
"Aunt, this is what I mean." Zhuang Qingning said, "If this bean seed is good, then we should stop using the original bean seeds at home and use this one instead."
"Okay." He agreed readily: "Since your bean seeds are good, then we can use them all."
"Okay, then I'll send you the bean seeds tomorrow."
The mission was going a little better. Zhuang Qingning stood up with a look of confidence: "Okay, I'll go home first. I haven't cooked dinner yet."
"If it's troublesome, don't make it. Just go to Aunt's house with Qingsui and have a meal." He smiled and said, "Today I'm going to make scallion pancakes."
Originally, the He family lived a tight life. They usually ate corn flour and sweet potato flour, and rarely ate steamed bread made of both corn flour and white flour. But in the past few months, they made a lot of money selling tofu with Zhuang Qingning, and Zhuang Mingliang also earned a lot of money, so naturally their life became much more comfortable.
Thinking that the busy farming season had just ended and the wheat in the fields had been stored in the warehouse, He asked Zhuang Yonghe to grind a bag of flour with the new wheat. Today was the first time she was eating it, so He thought she might as well eat to her heart's content and make some pure white flour scallion pancakes as a reward for everyone during this period of time.
"No, Qingsui is tidying up at home, and it's easy for her to cook for both of us." Zhuang Qingning declined.
"That's fine. Auntie won't keep you here any longer. Go home and cook for yourself tonight. You don't have to make pancakes or anything like that. My big stove is fast. When it's ready, I'll have Minghao bring it to you."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie. Don't send me off. Go back and get busy."
"become."
He said this but still sent Zhuang Qingning to the door. Then she turned back and collected the herbs that Zhuang Qingning had just brought. She gestured with the cloth and calculated how many herbal bags could be made.
While he was busy, Zhuang Yonghe came into the yard.
"I'm back." He stood up and hurried to get the ladle: "You're sweating all over, go wash up."
"Don't bother, I'll do it." Zhuang Yonghe took the lead and took the ladle to scoop water: "Where are Minghao and the others?"
"I just asked Minghao to take the two kids to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables. They've been gone for a while, so it's time for them to come back." He smiled and said, "I'll go knead the dough and make scallion pancakes for dinner."
"Okay." Zhuang Yonghe nodded, and seeing the new cloth in He's hand, he smiled and asked, "Has Miss Ning been here?"
"Yes." He folded the cloth in her hand and said, "She said she gave me a recipe for mosquito repellent and asked me to help make some herbal bags. She also asked us to keep some of it to help her try out the recipe. I thought I'd cut it out and make a shape first."
"Well, you can do it. There is not much work in the fields these days. Minghao and I can handle it. You can just do this."
"But this Ning girl..." Zhuang Yonghe laughed, "She really has a lot of ideas. Mosquitoes are the most annoying in summer. If the prescription she makes is good, even if it doesn't sell well in town, it will still sell well in the county."
"Yes, the people in the county are more financially comfortable, so I think they are willing to spend the money."
He frowned slightly and said, "Come to think of it, Miss Ning came here today and mentioned something."
"She said she had some good bean seeds and asked if we had enough."
"That's perfect. We don't have enough bean seeds at home. Let's just get some from Miss Ning. It's up to you how much money she offers." Zhuang Yonghe washed himself roughly. To cool down, he didn't even wipe the water off his face. He sat beside her with water droplets on his face, and drank the cold tea from a coarse porcelain bowl.
"I originally thought so, thinking that it was just what we needed, so Miss Ning sent it to us. But Miss Ning said that since this bean seed is better than the bean seeds we have at home, then we should just not plant our own bean seeds and only plant the bean seeds she sent."
He looked at Zhuang Yonghe: "About this matter, you tell me..."
Zhuang Yonghe lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Ms. Ning will definitely not let us suffer a loss just to sell some bean seeds. Besides, these bean seeds are not worth much, and Ms. Ning doesn't lack them. Since she said so, she must have her reasons."
"I was thinking, since Miss Ning has said this, no matter what the reason is, we should just listen and do as she says. Don't ask other questions or pry too much. Miss Ning is not an ordinary girl, she will not treat us unfairly."
"If there is something wrong with the bean seeds, it's just one season's harvest. We won't lose too much and we can afford it. This is much less than what Ning girl helped our family with."
"So don't worry too much about this matter. Just agree to it if Miss Ning says so."
"I thought so too." He smiled and said, "When Miss Ning mentioned this, I didn't even stutter and agreed to it right away. I will tell you about this when you come back."
