Dongshan has been busy with his family recently, and Song Yuehua has no time to pay attention to Liu Meiniang's affairs.
Who would have thought that even though she didn't go looking for trouble, trouble would find her.
Song Yuehua and Granny Lan were collecting eggs at the chicken farm, each carrying a large basket in their hands. When they were almost at the courtyard, they heard women talking.
"You all have a place to live, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing, but you have to occupy the old house and don't care about my mother's life or death?"
Then came Liu Xue's cold voice, "Since my mother has found a good man, what does the Bai family's old house have to do with you?"
"To be honest, the Bai family has nothing to do with you." Liu Meiniang said coldly.
Liu Xue nodded and said, "That's true, so the old house is under Bai Shu's name, and it has been rented to the Bian family now, so don't think about it in vain, mother."
Seeing that Liu Xue was too hard to take it, Liu Meiniang had to try the soft approach.
"Xiaoxue, my mother finally married into the Gu family and became a virgin. Can you bear to watch me marry into the Gu family with nothing in my hands?"
Liu Xue said calmly, "Mother, whether you get married or become a nun, your life or death has nothing to do with me."
"Xiaoxue, are you really going to be so heartless?" Liu Meiniang covered her chest with her hands, looking heartbroken.
“It’s so lively!”
Song Yuehua walked past Liu Mei Niang and stood next to Liu Xue, smiling faintly, "Isn't this Aunt Liu? Is she here to invite us to a wedding banquet?"
Before Liu Meiniang could speak, Song Yuehua said with a meaningful expression, "By the way, I heard that you are pregnant. Haha, congratulations!"
Liu Meiniang was so frightened that her face turned pale. She couldn't help but take two steps back. Seeing Song Yuehua was about to speak again, she screamed in fear and ran away in panic.
Liu Xue, "..."
Granny Lan and Liu Xue both looked at Song Yuehua at the same time.
"Hehe..." Song Yuehua laughed dryly and walked into the yard carrying the basket.
A few days later, news came from the village that the Gu family was holding a wedding.
Without asking, Song Yuehua knew that Liu Meiniang was finally going to marry into the Gu family as she wished.
On the day of the wedding banquet, Huang Fengjuan looked emaciated and lifeless, and it was all thanks to the village matchmaker Tang who arranged the wedding banquet.
After giving the gift money, Song Yuehua found a place to have a feast by herself. The meal was ordinary, nothing to fault with but also nothing to say about its excellence. It must not be easy to achieve such a result.
During the banquet, a nosy woman asked about Liu Xue. Song Yuehua just smiled and said nothing, and the woman did not dare to say much either.
After all, her husband still wanted to go to work in Dongshan. If she offended Song Yuehua, her parents-in-law would probably skin her alive.
After the Gu family incident was over, Song Yuehua never paid any attention to it again.
It’s time to harvest the potatoes in the field. A total of 30 acres of potatoes have been planted.
Zhou Dafu used half of the working hours saved in the school to dig potatoes, so there was no need to dispatch too many people.
The compound seconded Tan Xiuxiu and Ding Cuigu.
If Zhou Dafu assigns half of his working hours to Zong Yi, the manpower will be just about enough.
The potatoes were carried to the yard and then packed by the people in the yard. Each sack held about 100 pounds. 200 bags were packed out first for seeds, and the remaining 200 bags were kept for regular pig feed.
After counting the remaining, there were 800 bags, and the grocery store owner only wanted 10,000 jin, or 100 bags.
Later, Song Yuehua went to several shops and restaurants. The managers there started to lower the price as soon as they opened their mouths. The prices were so low that she was a little angry.
After going around in circles, Song Yuehua didn't want to sell anymore. Finally, she thought of looking for a pig farmer who had a lot of pigs and might be in demand.
As soon as I arrived at the pig market, I saw the pig farmer greet me with a rosy face, "Miss Song, do you want to buy piglets?"
"Are you harvesting potatoes here?" Song Yuehua asked, pointing at a cart of potatoes behind her.
The swineherd took a look and said, "The potatoes are harvested. Are they all here?"
Song Yuehua said, "There are still several hundred bags at home, a total of 700 bags, each bag is 100 kilograms, can you afford so many?"
Hearing this, the swineherd laughed and said, "Why not? I can take as many as I want."
How many pigs are they raising? Song Yuehua sighed inwardly.
If they relied on their own ox cart alone, it would take a long time to complete the transportation. So the pigherd called all the ox carts from the pig market to go to the Song family to transport potatoes.
"I guess you have a lot of pigs here," Song Yuehua asked.
The swineherd smiled mysteriously and said, "Not entirely."
Oh, and I also raise other livestock.
Song Yuehua thought that raising pigs and chickens at home was enough. The last time she raised a few lambs, it was a failure. Not only did they not grow much meat, but they also spent a lot of money on medicine when they got sick.
You still have to take one step at a time.
When we arrived at the gate of the compound, the potatoes were weighed. The swineherd didn't know many words, so he made a note of each bag. There were definitely 700 bags in total, and each bag weighed over 100 kilograms. There must have been a lot more potatoes overall.
The swineherd did not bargain and gave Song Yuehua 70 taels of silver.
All the potatoes were taken away. Song Yuehua asked Xie Wenwu to prepare a potato feast in the evening. Dongshan also ate potatoes for several days afterwards.
There is no need to rush to plant other things on the remaining land. Instead, plow it carefully, apply base fertilizer, let it rest for a while, and then plant cotton directly in April.
Zong Yi is different from Zhou Dafu. He has experience in growing cotton. Since he started preparing the land, he has been asking Zhou Dafu questions every day.
Zhou Dafu couldn't hide it either. If the two plots of land were planted differently, anyone with a discerning eye would know what was wrong.
The experience points that you have worked so hard to gain must not be wasted.
Song Yuehua asked Zhou Dafu to gather the farmhands from both sides together to share their experiences in growing cotton.
Song Yuehua also attended this sharing session, and what she said was all true.
