Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 693 The Expanding Sun Family

The aunt Sun Wanger mentioned was Sun Pingmei, who was lying on the beauty couch, eating roasted chestnuts and drinking sweet milk tea.

She has been feeling unwell recently, and her mother-in-law felt sorry for her so she let her stay at home and rest.

Since she could read, she lay on the beauty couch with the storybook in her hands, reading it while her personal maid peeled chestnuts that had just been roasted with sugar for her.

The chestnuts were golden in color and steaming.

"Master, I have peeled ten more. Please eat them quickly. Do you want me to feed you?" the maid Hong'er asked softly.

She stood next to Sun Pingmei holding a plate, and deliberately avoided the light for fear of blocking Sun Pingmei's reading.

"Feed me, okay." Sun Pingmei was very lazy. She didn't want to move at all if she could avoid it.

She opened her mouth as soon as she finished speaking, and Hong'er picked up a chestnut and put it in her mouth.

"Well, this year's chestnuts are extra glutinous and delicious, but this is sweet and the milk tea is sweet too. My throat is sore. Give me something spicy to eat. My nose is so blocked and spicy food will clear it up."

Sun Pingmei sniffed.

Although she was resting at home, she didn't take the medicine. Fubao said that her condition was not serious and if she didn't get better after resting for a few days, it wouldn't be too late to take the medicine again.

Chili peppers can induce sweating, so Fubao also lets her eat some occasionally.

Out of the way.

Hong Er quickly responded to her: "Okay, I'll ask the cook to prepare some skewers for you. What do you want to eat?"

Jiang’s snack shop sells grilled skewers, so the cook can naturally make them.

There is also an iron stove in the backyard that is specially used for baking things. Jiang Fubao specially asked a blacksmith to make it.

"Grill some pork skewers. Don't use mutton. It's hot in nature and will make your throat uncomfortable. Grill a skewer of pig intestines. They're delicious. Remember to grill them a little longer. Hmm, grill some small potatoes and some long mushrooms. They're sweet and fresh after grilling. You can decide for yourself what to do with the rest. When you come, bring me another cup of hot milk tea without sugar."

Sun Pingmei was wearing her inner garment, with her hair draped over her shoulders, falling on the pillow of the beauty bed. She was only covered with a thin blanket, so she was not restrained at all. When she spoke, she even crossed her legs, looking like a queen in the mountains.

Hong'er has gotten used to her being like this.

He nodded as if it was nothing unusual and went to the backyard.

The plate of peeled chestnuts was placed next to Sun Pingmei's pillow. She held the storybook in her left hand and read it with relish, and from time to time she picked up a chestnut with her right hand and put it in her mouth to chew slowly.

It's really fun to read a book while eating.

At that time, the Sun family members who came to Jiangjia Village had already returned to the village.

They deliberately did not go to the fields. They ate at home and slept for a while before slowly coming to the fields. Because of the autumn harvest, no one in the village went home for dinner.

Instead, the woman would go home, cook the meal, and then bring it to the fields for the whole family to eat. This way she could save time and harvest more food.

Seeing the Sun family coming back, all the villagers came over, including the village chief of Sunjia Village.

It would be a good thing for him if the village could grow medicinal herbs.

Everyone looked at the Sun family eagerly.

"How's it going, Mugen, how's the matter going? Is it done? Did the Jiang family agree?" The impatient man asked first, and the others nodded.

"Cough cough cough." Sun Mugen pretended to cough a few times, then said slowly: "Don't you see who I am? My Pingmei married into his family. How could he not give me this face? It's just that Fubao said that she doesn't have any medicinal seeds for the time being. When she gets the seeds next year, she will let our village plant them." Sun Mugen deliberately concealed part of the facts.

He made it sound as if the Jiang family had a very good relationship with him.

It was obvious that Jiang Fubao was delaying on purpose, but he said that he had no choice but to do it because he didn't have the medicine.

The people in Sunjia Village took it seriously and thought they would be able to make a lot of money by growing medicinal herbs next year.

Everyone was smiling happily.

"Oh, it's done. That's great. Although we can't plant this year, we can wait until next year. When the time comes, Brother Mugen, you can tell your in-laws to let the little doctor give less medicinal seeds to Zhoujia Village and more to our village. In this way, even if Zhoujia Village plants a year earlier than us, we are still better than them. Everyone, do you think I am right?"

The man shouted with his head held high.

His tone was so excited that it seemed as if he was the one who went to Jiangjia Village to do this, which made Sun Mugen feel a little unhappy.

"Yes, yes, you are right. If we continue like this, within three years, our village will be second only to Jiangjia Village. What about Zhangjia Village and Wangjia Village? In another three years, Jiangjia Village will be the boss among the ten villages! As for us, we will be the second. Although the name of the second is not good, we will live a happy life. As long as we get on the Jiangjia Village ship, we will never have to worry about food and drink in the future."

Another man said in an exaggerated tone.

It seems like good days are coming.

They have never been so happy even when there was a bumper harvest.

"How much money can you make from growing medicinal herbs? Has anyone asked about it? Brother Mugen, do you know? Did the Jiang family tell you how much they would pay for our medicinal herbs?" When talking about money, these people turned their attention to Sun Mugen again.

"Then the price must be the same as that of Jiangjia Village. Don't you see that I am a member of the Jiang family? How can they treat me unfairly? Don't worry, now we just have to wait for Fubao to get the medicinal seeds. By the way, how is the crop harvest in my field? There are so many of you, haven't you finished harvesting it yet? Can you finish harvesting it in the afternoon?" Sun Mugen picked his teeth with his little fingernail and said casually.

In fact, it is putting pressure on them.

After all, he had accomplished his task, and it was time for the villagers to fulfill their promise to him.

His family has a lot of land, a full six acres.

"Okay, okay, we'll harvest it for you right now, you guys go home and have a rest. Fortunately, the autumn heat hasn't come yet, otherwise it would still be very hot. Brother Mugen, don't worry, we'll definitely finish harvesting it for you this afternoon. Even if we don't harvest our own grain, we'll have to harvest it for you first, don't you agree?"

"Yes--"

"Let's go, let's go collect food. Brother Mugen has helped us so much, we can't be lazy——"

"Son, don't stay in our fields anymore. Come here and help your uncle Mugen harvest the rice. Hurry up."

In the entire Sunjia Village, anyone who wanted to grow medicinal herbs went to Sun Mugen’s fields to harvest rice.

Adults and children all gathered here.

Only then did Sun Mugen leave with satisfaction.

His expression was the same as He Xinghua's, with a smug look on his face.

"Wang'er, why are you being lazy here instead of going to the mountain to chop wood? You are such a slut, you think you are a lady from a rich family and you still need me to serve you? Hurry up and go to the mountain to chop wood, and see if you can pick up chestnuts. You can sell them for money, but it's a pity that too many people are picking them up. Otherwise, if you pick them up for ten days, you can sell them for at least three or four hundred coins, which is faster than farming."
