When Huo Yunchao returned home from Xu's house, his head was filled with Xu Ning's carefully prepared wedding clothes, and he was in an extremely excited state of mind.

Huo Yunchao was thinking about a bunch of things that were not there, tossing them over and over like pancakes, and then he simply got up and sorted out the pig-hair pens and crude ink sticks that he had made by himself.

The pig bristle of the pig bristle pen was specially left for him by Xu Ning, and was carefully selected one by one and made with great care.

The crude ink stick is an experimental product. Although it is not as useful as the most expensive ink sticks sold in bookstores, it is better because the materials are easy to obtain and cheap, the production cost is low, and the price is not high. It is enough for scholars to practice calligraphy and writing on a daily basis.

A penny stumps a heroic man.

Huo Yunchao was going to take his pig-hair pen and crude ink sticks to a bookstore in the town and exchange them for money.

Ever since he fell in love with Xu Ning at first sight, Huo Yunchao was very eager to make money.

His self-esteem does not allow him to be a soft-boiled man, so Huo Yunchao has no intention of letting the Xu family bear all the wedding expenses.

Even if he took the initiative to "marry" into the Xu family as a son-in-law, he still wanted to contribute to his marriage with Xu Ning.

As the morning light faded, Huo Yunchao couldn't lie down any longer. He was going to the kitchen to rummage through the cabinets, looking for ingredients to make something delicious for Xu Ning's breakfast.

Huo Tianxiang came back from the paddy fields and happened to see Huo Yunchao getting up. He said excitedly: "Chao'er, the medicine you learned from the book is very useful! I sprayed medicine yesterday. I just went to see it and found that many pests have died!"

"Dad, did the cha Ku liquid really work?"

Huo Yunchao was so excited that he took Huo Tianxiang with him to check the pests and diseases in the rice fields.

The father and son came to the paddy field with the most serious pests and diseases. Huo Yunchao carefully observed and found that he came to the following conclusion: "Dad, this

The pests and diseases in paddy fields are so serious that it is unrealistic to completely kill them. Another spray of other medicine should be able to save 70% to 80%. "

Hearing this great news, Huo Tianxiang's eyes turned red with excitement: "That's 70% to 80%? Chao'er, I thought our paddy field would have no harvest!"

Huo Yunchao almost lost his character because he didn't pay attention, so he quickly tried to make amends for himself: "Dad, I don't have as much experience as you. I just learned everything from books. I just estimated the approximate data and how much I can keep in the end. I really There’s no guarantee.”

With his knowledge level as a doctor of agriculture, as long as Huo Tianxiang does what he says, he can really keep 70% to 80% of the output.

But he put it on the original body who had never worked in the fields. The data he just said was so detailed and specific that it was really out of consideration.

Huo Tianxiang didn't think much. All he could think about was that Huo Yunchao said that this paddy field, which was facing an impossible harvest, could guarantee a harvest of more than 50%!

"Chao'er, even if the harvest of this paddy field is only 30%, no, 10% is not too little!"

Huo Yunchao knew how worried Huo Tianxiang was about the failure of this paddy field, so he added: "Dad, I'm going to go to the town to see if there are any medicinal materials mentioned in the book in the drugstore. If I can buy the medicinal materials mentioned in the book, then I can keep the paddy fields for five years." It shouldn’t be a problem if we get a good harvest.”

Huo Tianxiang: "Chao'er, do you plan to go to town alone?"

Huo Yunchao smiled sweetly: "No. Ning Niang said that she made a custom-made wedding dress for me in the town and asked me to try on the wedding dress. If anything doesn't fit, she asked the embroiderer to change it on the spot."

Xu Ning custom-made wedding clothes for Chaoer? By the way, his Chao'er is the Xu family's son-in-law.

Thinking like this, Huo Tianxiang had something in his mind: "Chao'er,

When are you going out? "

Huo Yunchao scratched his head, blushed and asked Huo Tianxiang for money: "Dad, give me twenty cents. I will pay you back when I sell the pig quill pen."

Huo Tianxiang pretended to be angry and said: "Why don't you pay it back!"

For such a big man, he still had to ask his father for money with his palms turned up. Huo Yunchao really didn't want to do this.

But it was his first date with Xu Ning. He couldn't just go out with just a penny he earned. When he went to town to buy a hairband, Xu Ning had to pay for it, right?

Seeing Huo Yunzhao's red-faced and embarrassed look, Huo Tianxiang felt distressed. He took out his wallet and gave it to him, and warned, "Chao'er, this is the first time you go to town with Ning Niang. Buy what you need and spend what you need. We men work hard to earn money. The money is just to provide good food and good use for my wife and children at home.”

Huo Yunchao rushed over and hugged Huo Tianxiang, thanking him loudly: "Dad, you are so kind to me!"

Huo Tianxiang has a reserved personality and is not used to being held by Huo Yunchao like this, but he cannot suppress his joy.

Whether he was used to it or not, Huo Tianxiang was reluctant to push away Huo Yunchao who took the initiative to get close to him. He patted his back with a big hand like a leaf fan and said in a low voice: "Chao'er, dad doesn't expect you to get ahead. He only hopes that you and Ning Niang will be successful." Live a good life and try to let dad hold the big fat boy by this time next year."

Huo Yunchao had many things he wanted to accomplish with Xu Ning and did not plan to have a child so early.

He and Xu Ning were in their youth, and he wanted to enjoy their relationship for a few more years, and he also wanted to make more money, and it would be best to gain fame. However, Huo Yunchao knew what Huo Tianxiang was thinking, and did not say such derogatory words.

Huo Tianxiang looked at the sky and reminded: "At this point, Ning Niang should have made breakfast.

, you can just eat ready-made ones in the past. Remember to push the wheelbarrow to town so that Ning Niang doesn't get tired. "

Huo Yunchao put the money bag given by his father, pushed a wheelbarrow with several bamboo baskets, and went out happily. One of the bamboo baskets contained pig-hair pens and crude ink sticks that he was going to exchange for money.

"Ning Niang!"

Huo Yunchao pushed the wheelbarrow to the door of Xu's house and parked it. He looked up and saw Xu Ning who came to open the door for him. His smile was as refreshing as the morning breeze: "Ning Niang, good morning!"

Xu Ning's eyes fell on the unicycle and asked him: "Good morning, have you eaten?"

Huo Yunchao shook his head, "No."

"I cooked more."

Xu Ning didn't say that she cooked it specially for Huo Yunchao. When she was at home alone, she would just eat something to fill her stomach.

Huo Yunchao saw through it without saying anything and followed Xu Ning into the house to have breakfast.

After breakfast, Huo Yunchao pushed the wheelbarrow and said to Xu Ning: "Mother Ning, I brought a pig-hair pen and ink sticks, and I want to try my luck."

Xu Ning wanted to say that Huo Yunchao's money was not needed for the wedding, but she thought of how laborious and laborious Huo Yunchao was in making the pig-hair pens, and she really couldn't say anything to dampen his enthusiasm.

There was no need for Xu Ning's comfort, and Huo Yunchao didn't have much hope himself: "Mother Ning, if the bookstore refuses to accept the pig-bristle brushes and ink blocks I made, then I will keep them for my own use."

Xu Ning comforted him: "If you work so hard, there will definitely be someone who knows the goods."

"Ning Niang, the pens, inks, paper and inkstones sold in the bookstore are so expensive. It doesn't matter if the bookstore refuses to accept my pens and inks. I can save a lot of money by using my own pens and inks."

Huo Yunchao was deeply moved by Xu Ning's clumsy comfort, but he was really not as glass-hearted as Xu Ning thought.

Xu Ning was about to speak but stopped.

I wanted to tell Huo Yunchao that you don't have to be so frugal, but the words came to my lips but I didn't have the confidence to say them out.

She inquired about the cost of studying in the town. It cost three taels of silver to study in the town's school alone. Plus consumables such as pens, inks, paper and inkstones, it would cost at least six taels of silver in a year.
