Chapter 19: Spring Garden Oiran



After the land is cultivated, it is time to plant vegetables.

Zhang Xiuyuan was carrying a few small bags of rapeseed, and Zhao Chuchu was carrying a wooden barrel.

After Zhang Xiuyuan planted the rapeseed in the field, Zhao Chuchu took a watering can to water it. The water was not pure water, but was mixed with spiritual spring water.

Because of this spiritual spring water, Zhao Chuchu has long been misunderstood by Yuan Ge'er as a "big eater". Sometimes she can hear Yuan Ge'er muttering worriedly while cooking: I wonder if the family will go bankrupt because of all the food.

So what happened next was that Zhang Xiuyuan, who was already frugal, became even more "frugal". Well, it would be better to say that he was stingy rather than frugal. He budgeted carefully for the sake of his family and was determined not to spend a single penny.

The only question is whether the family will be destitute, the answer is yes.

Zhao Chuchu rummaged through her purse in the morning and found it empty.

She had no money, and Yuan Ge'er should have money, but that was the betrothal gift she gave, and she was determined not to accept it.

So, she had to find a job before the vegetables grew.

"Sister Chu, Brother Yuan, what are you doing?" someone asked.

Zhao Chuchu said, I’m growing vegetables.

"This field is used to grow crops, why is it used to grow vegetables? How much can vegetables be sold for? No, it's better to grow crops instead." A while ago, when they saw Zhao Chuchu pulling a cow to plow the land, they thought it was reserved for planting seedlings, but now it is actually used to grow vegetables.

"Aunt, thank you for your reminder, but I think growing vegetables is a good idea." Zhao Chuchu responded and continued watering.

The middle-aged woman was about to say something when a male voice suddenly rang out.

"Madam Qiu, everyone wants to grow vegetables, so why are you wasting your breath with them? Asking Zhao Chuchu to plant rice seedlings and harvest rice later, is that something a second-rate person like her can do? These vegetables are easy to grow. Even if the price is low, you won't starve to death if you have money. Besides, Zhao Chuchu is old and she finally spent fifty taels to buy a husband, so she has to behave well.

If you keep going to the brothel to drink wine like before, your husband will definitely run away. By the way, Sister Chu, do you still remember Qing'er from Manchunyuan in the county town? I heard that he is always thinking about you.

Zhao Chuchu turned her head and saw that it was a middle-aged man.

Her face was covered with a thick layer of powder, making her look very white, but her lips were painted bright red, and when she opened her mouth, it was as if she had opened a bloody mouth.

Behind him followed a man who was wearing bright red clothes, had a mole on the corner of his lip, was about forty years old, and looked like a matchmaker.

Zhao Chuchu narrowed her eyes and found the information of this middle-aged man from the original owner's memory.

People called him Ying Fulang. He married Zhao Xuan, a hunter from the Zhao family. Zhao Xuan was his cousin. At first, Zhao Xuan had her eyes on his younger brother, but Ying Fulang tricked his way into Zhao Xuan's bed. Zhao Xuan had no choice but to marry him.

After marriage, the two had a daughter. The daughter was smart and clever since she was young, but because Ying's husband did not take good care of her when she was young, he quarreled with others over a trivial matter when his daughter had a high fever, which caused his daughter to have a high fever and eventually turned her into a fool.

Zhao Xuan didn't like Ying Fulang in the first place, and it was because of him that her daughter became a fool due to the burn, so Zhao Xuan disliked him even more.

She took her beloved cousin as her concubine. Of course, Ying Fulang refused and tried to commit suicide, but because of his daughter's affairs, no one stood on his side. In the end, he could only watch his own brother marry into the family.
