Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 45 What should be done

Last time when they were selling dried sweet potatoes, Sumulan bought a piece of meat and brought back a piece of tofu. They actually ate several meals of meaty vegetables and tofu to satisfy the gluttons in their stomachs.

With such a large amount of dried sweet potatoes, there are more dried sweet potatoes than last time, so naturally we can sell them for more money and eat more meat.

The thought of being able to eat meat made Bai Mi Dou happy.

"Yeah." Seeing his little brother as happy as if he was about to celebrate the New Year, Bai Shuiliu pursed his lips and smiled.

In the past two days, Su Mulan let her have a good rest. She was not even allowed to leave the floor. Even if she got out of bed, she was only allowed to sit. He even applied medicinal wine to her three or four times a day. The swelling on her feet was already Most of it is gone and I look much better.

 Bai Zhuye was mixing some chopped vegetable leaves with some bran to feed the chickens, and pouted, "It would be great if I could go to town with my mother to sell dried sweet potatoes."

I haven’t been to the town for a long time. There are so many delicious and fun places in the town. Even if you can’t eat or play, it’s still nice to see them.

“Want to go to the town to go to the market?” Su Mulan came out with a cake and laughed.

Hearing his little thoughts, Bai Zhuye scratched his ears in embarrassment.

"It's not impossible to go if you want to, but it won't be possible tomorrow. Let's wait for a while. When we make more money from selling dried sweet potatoes, we will take you to the market." Su Mulan said.

Even though these children are all sensible and obedient, they would never take the initiative to ask for snacks. Even if Su Mulan offered to buy them, these children would probably have to refuse them again and again.

But precisely because of this, Su Mulan felt really sorry for these children, and was afraid that when she saw the forbearing looks in these children's eyes, she would feel sour in her heart.

Let’s wait for a few more fairs, have more money in hand, and take a few children to go to the fair.

"When the time comes, I will also pull some cloth for you to make new clothes." Su Mulan added, "And buy some nicer head flowers to wear. The one I saw Peach Blossom wearing in the past two days seems to be tied with silk. I asked if the price is expensive, and I will buy one for each of you. But Mi Dou is a male doll. If you don’t want to buy it for him, let’s make him a pair of shoes. The male doll is very active, so the shoes will cost more.”

The clothes worn by the children were obviously the small ones worn by Bai Shuiliu and given to Bai Lixia. The small ones worn by Bai Lixia were then divided between Bai Zhuye and Bai Mi Dou. It can be said that they were washed white and the patches were also. There are piles of patches, and even some holes on the inside that are not meant to be seen, such as creaking holes, can no longer be repaired.

Summer is better, the children are naughty, and those who do farm work spend a lot of money on clothes. In addition, the weather is hot, many people don't care about what their children wear. But when the weather gets cold in autumn, if they still wear clothes like this Short clothes may catch cold easily.

Not to mention those who tie up their hair, other people buy flowers to wear, and the worst ones are all colorful headbands. Shuiliu and the others tie their hair into double buns, which they can only use torn from old clothes. The cloth strips looked pitiful.

Su Mulan had planned this, and she thought it was normal. She felt that this was what she, a mother, should do.

But the tears of Bai Bamboo Leaf were falling in a pitter-patter manner.

Moreover, she was shedding tears but she was trying not to cry out, so that her little shoulders were shrugging, which made the viewer feel heartbroken.
