MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 325 Both flowers and vegetables

When everyone fell asleep, Qin Yao sat up from the bed, tucked the two little ones on the side of the bed into bed, put on her homemade slippers and came to the table.

The thank-you gifts sent by Qi Xianguan today are all here.

The moon is indeed bright during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Under the moonlight, the luster of the two pieces of silk becomes softer and brighter, and the jacquard on the fabric is also shining.

Qin Yao touched it with her hand. It felt silky and as soft as clouds. It's a pity that she wouldn't be willing to wear clothes made from such good materials, so she might as well put them away first, and then use them to make some comfortable home clothes when she becomes a landlord who doesn't have to work.

Two pieces of cotton cloth are very useful. When the temperature drops, each person in the family can buy an extra set of clothes.

Those two copper hand stoves came at the right time. They will be ready for use in winter in more than a month.

 She has one of her own, which she takes with her to work in the factory. It is small and fits just fine in her hand.

There is another one left, and Qin Yao hasn’t decided who to use it for yet. It’s not enough to give it to four children in the family, and it’s not fair to give it to just one, so let’s keep it for now.

This kind of copper product is very valuable just for its raw materials, and it would also be good to give as a gift in the future.

There are five sets of the Four Treasures of the Study. Although Qin Yao doesn't know how to judge the quality of these inkstone and ink stick brushes, the quality of the good ones is indeed different. She touched the ink stick with her fingertips and found it to be extremely smooth, just like the ones bought at the market. Those ink strips that feel rough to the touch are completely different.

Not to mention the carving patterns on the inkstone, it can be seen that they have been carefully crafted by craftsmen.

These five sets of Four Treasures of the Study have different patterns and carvings. There are pictures of grape vines, and educational pictures such as lying on the ice and seeking carp.

Qin Yao left the grape vines behind, and the remaining four children happened to be in one set each.

 Thinking back to the past, she was also a girl who followed trends and fashion, with many beautiful clothes and jewelry.

 But when the end of the world comes, these beautiful pursuits have become a burden that hinders survival.

I don’t know since when, my long black and smooth hair turned into short hair that I don’t need to take care of. The clothes and shoes on my body are also based on practical standards. The outside is always a set of protective clothing that smells of heavy plastic.

Qin Yao accidentally looked into the mirror and almost couldn't recognize who the person in the mirror was.

 Looking down at the pair of silver and sapphire bracelets, they were so beautiful that she subconsciously wanted to remove the silver on them and melt them into silver to survive.

 But there is no end of the world now, is there?

Qin Yao put two bracelets on her wrists, which were slightly larger in size. She shook her hands, and the silver bracelets on her arms were dangling.

It is so beautiful. The moonlight shines through the sapphire, and you can see the cotton wool patterns inside. The patterns on each stone are different. Qin Yao stared at it for a long time, enjoying it.

However, after admiring them, I took off the two bracelets and carefully put them into the box. She thought she would bring them with her next time she went to Fucheng for business!

 There is new excitement in Liujiacun.

The nobles from the city want to build houses in their village, and the owner of a brick and tile seller in Xiahe Village has another big order, sending carts of bricks and tiles to Liujia Village.

The road into the village has now been repaired and is a solid and smooth road. The villagers passing by are filled with pride and joy.

Just such a road instantly shortened the distance between Liujia Village and the surrounding villages. Girls who married outside the village returned to their parents' homes one after another, and were surprised to find that they were much closer than before.

Of course, they also came to deliver shoulder straps to the stationery factory.

Yun Niang was in charge of the outsourcing of the shoulder straps. The ladies from each village in the lead sent the goods handed over by the embroiderers to Yun Niang. After settling the accounts on the spot, they paid a deposit of five hundred yuan and received the two or three dollars back. Hundreds of jobs, wait until they are finished and then send them next time.

 When they stop working, the factory will return the deposit.

 At the beginning, the deposit was only 300 Wen. Later, the market competition became fierce. In order to get more jobs, the ladies in each village raised the deposit price to 500 Wen.

 After all, the wages earned are much more than this deposit. Women who get a job can make money at home by doing their own crafts. If they have money, they will feel confident and speak loudly.

Now when people from outside pass by the village of Jinshi Town, they find that the women in this village are much more "vibrant" than before.

No, when I was ordered to pick some wild flowers for my master to decorate the stones of the new house, I met Sister-in-law Zhou and others who had just returned from work in the factory.

 Sister-in-law Zhou recognized the onions she grew at home at a glance.

He immediately shouted: "Brother, stop!"

Pushing a cart of rocks with mud, flowers and grass, he didn't notice it and continued walking forward. He found that the road ahead was surrounded by a group of women. Only then did he realize that it was him who was called by "that little brother".

Things seemed to be getting serious. Liu Carpenter's wife yelled "Ah", pointed at the pile of sunflowers on the car and asked in shock and anger: "Where did you pick the sunflowers? And they uprooted them? Oh my God -"

  Shitou felt guilty and pointed to the hillside outside the village, "It was picked from the mountain over there. I thought it was a big piece, and no one was looking after it, so I picked some back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Carpenter Liu’s family member wailed: “I’m going to die!”

"What kind of mountain can grow such a large field of sunflowers? I have worked hard to plant them. Ask the villagers, who doesn't know!"

As soon as they heard the wails from Carpenter Liu’s house, the other ladies crowded in front of the car to look at the flowers on it, and three or four roars were heard one after another.

The stone secretly said, who knew that these vegetables look like flowers?

Just as he was about to be drowned by the accusations from the ladies, Shitou caught a glimpse of Qin Yao passing by with calculations out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly shouted: "Mrs. Qin, help me!"

Qin Yao looked up and smiled, "You are so brave, you dare to touch the vegetables that the ladies have worked so hard to grow."

  Shitou is really suffering and can’t express it. I just ask Qin Yao to come over quickly and help talk things over.

He just said he would pay compensation, but the ladies were still not happy about it.

Sister-in-law Zhou thought to herself that the compensation for this order of food would be less than two cents, but she had grown the onions one by one with her own hands, so how could it be the same?

Qin Yao hurriedly stepped forward, thanked them on behalf of his guests, and asked them to go to his water mill for free, and then the ladies let go of the stone.

 Before leaving, I was kind enough to teach him what these beautiful flowers and plants were.

The ones with clusters of white flowers are onions, the ones with large yellow flowers are sunflowers, the ones with bunches of purple flowers are leeks, etc.

 Stone nodded in shock, indicating that he had learned.

  Dragging a cart of flowers and plants to the old house that was being renovated, he met Qi Xianguan and immediately showed it off to his little master.

“Sir, please look at this bunch of purple-flowered leeks, which are often said to grow again after one crop is cut. This is what is used in the leek box.”

Qi Xianguan looked at Qin Yao who was following him in surprise, "Madam, is this really the case?"

Qin Yao twisted off a sunflower, put the abacus under her arm, and nodded seriously while cracking the tender melon seeds, "Yes, the ones I am eating now are melon seeds."

Qi Xianguan exclaimed: "It's so wonderful..."

 After a while he also picked one for the teacher and brought it back! (End of chapter)
