Li Junxin's guess is not unreasonable. It is a miracle that this caravan can come back with all its beards and tail. At least until the drought passes, Northern Hubei will no longer send caravans outside the customs.
…
Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Qingqian went to the market to buy some meat and big bones, and then drove the carriage to Shenji Pastry for a spin. By the way, she had lunch with Shen Qingning and the others, and looked at the sun outside which was not so fierce anymore. Just left.
The children at home are growing taller recently, and they have been eating bone soup every meal.
Eating meat every day is too luxurious for others, but now the Shen family can afford it.
Seeing that the children were growing better and better, other families in the yard were so envious that they all rolled up.
After the canal was widened, watering the land and using water were no longer so stressful. Jiang Goudan and the others came to the Shen family to discuss that they could continue to grow vegetables in the ground and provide each family with an additional income channel.
Naturally, Mrs. Wu would not disagree, but she left the whole matter to Shen Qingman, and she, Mrs. Liang and Mrs. Lin, etc., took care of the land allocated to the Shen family by the army.
In addition, the sugar factory is operating normally, the demand for sugar is greater than before, and the sugar factory has expanded its enrollment.
This expansion is mainly for temporary workers, and only four permanent workers have been recruited.
Shen Qingman was looking at the fields. Shen Qingxiao was doing most of the work in the sugar factory.
The rumble of the carriage attracted a group of children to come over from a distance. Shen Qingqian waved to them, "Go inside first and stop basking in the sun."
"Sixth Aunt, is there anything delicious?" Shen Jin eagerly peeked through the curtain of the carriage.
Shen Yao has been led by her to become a foodie these days, but she is a genuine little lady. Even if she really wants to eat, she will just blink at you.
Shen Zhe now often behaves like a little uncle. When he saw a few little carrots like this, he quickly took them back like a grown-up and said, "Let my sister drive the car into the yard."
When Shen Qingqian got out of the car, a group of children gathered around, chattering like little sparrows.
In short, did you bring them anything back?
Shen Qingqian secretly thought it was dangerous. She went to the market today and happened to see someone selling thorn fruits. Because they were from the mountains, they were sold with vegetables. They cost ten cents for a big basket, so she bought them all as soon as she saw them.
Now surrounded by children, she clicked on their foreheads one by one, "I know you are greedy, so I have prepared it for you!"
After saying that, she turned around and took out the basket from the carriage, handed it to Shen Zhe and said, "Brother Zhe, come and divide it. Take each portion home and give it to aunt and mother to taste."
There is no mountain in Xiaonantun, so there are very few opportunities for adults and children to go into the mountains.
The children cheered, and Shen Zhe quickly gave everyone a handful of thorns. After finishing the ones around him, he didn't forget to send some to the children who hadn't come out yet. When he came back with the basket, there was only one left. Bottom.
"Sister, I... seem to have given too much." Shen Zhe came to Shen Qingqian and handed the basket to her, "Everyone shouldn't be given too much."
Shen Qingqian was washing her hands, glanced down, and then smiled: "It's okay, aunt and the others don't have to eat it."
Only children are the most greedy for these mountain fruits. Most adults are not interested in such more sour things.
Hearing this, Shen Zhe lowered his head, thoughtfully.
If he wants to keep a lot of things, he must control the quantity when giving them out.
Just as Shen Qingqian finished washing her hands and was about to enter the house, she heard the sound of horse hooves.
