Qiao Ran didn't know that someone thought so much about her own affairs. She was very busy.

A few days later, the weather was fine. She drove a carriage to Xiangyang Village in Luoyang Prefecture early in the morning to pick up silkworm farmer Huang Laogen and teach the villagers in Qingshui Village how to raise silkworms.

A few months later, when Qiao Ran arrived at this barren little village again, she saw a thriving scene.

The fields at the entrance of the village are no longer as barren as the last time I saw them, but are green everywhere.

The farmers working in the fields are also full of energy, with relaxed smiles on their faces, no longer frowning.

At the entrance of the village, there were still those old people who were too old to go to the ground to watch their children. When they saw a carriage that was considered luxurious to them, driving towards the village, they all stood up and looked curiously.

When they saw the young man sitting on the shaft of the carriage driving the carriage, these old people only felt that they looked familiar.

When they saw the carriage parked at the entrance of Huang Laogen's house at the entrance of the village, they suddenly remembered that this was the same Qiao who came to Huang Laogen to buy silkworm cocoons two or three months ago and helped him heal Lao Han's leg. Young Master?

Qiao Ran still wore men's clothes today, so that it was easier to walk outside.

Huang Laogen was very happy to see her. He hurriedly invited the person into the house and took out a jar of honey to make honey water for her to drink.

"Mr. Qiao, I thought it would be a while before you come! There's nothing to entertain you at home. Fortunately, I just went to Fucheng two days ago to buy this jar of fresh honey, so I'll make a bowl for you. Drink the honey water! This thing can nourish people!"

Qiao Ran wanted to say no need to bother, but seeing that Huang Laogen had already turned around to get the bowl before he finished speaking, she had no choice but to let him go.

After taking a sip of this ancient, pollution-free, original honey water, Qiao Ran felt that it was indeed better tasting than the honey from her previous life.

In the past, she and her grandfather also placed several beehives on the mountain. When the mountain flowers were in full bloom in the spring, they could harvest several large bottles of honey.

But she didn't know if it was because this body had never drank honey water before in this life. She felt that it tasted better than her own honey before.

By the way, I don’t know if the beehives in the space are still there and whether there is honey.

But the space is a copy of the small courtyard and the entire mountain where she lived in her previous life. The beehive should still be there, right?

When you get back, go into the space and take a look to see if the honey in the space tastes better now than before.

Huang Laogen stood aside, rubbing his hands and waiting for Qiao Ran to finish drinking the honey.

Qiao Ran drank honey water while looking at Huang Laogen's home.

I saw that the house was much cleaner and tidier than the last time I came here, and it seemed that a few necessary items for daily life had been added.

For example, the porcelain bowl in her hand is much more exquisite than the bowl she used to drink water from last time. It looks like a new one at first glance.

Even the bench she was sitting on was completely different from the other three. It was new and polished very smoothly.

Qiao Ran drank most of the bowl of honey water, put down the bowl, and asked:

"Uncle Huang, it seems that your life is much better now than before. Now the prefect of Luoyang Prefecture has also changed. You will no longer be exploited and oppressed in the future. If you grow mulberry and raise silkworms at home, you should also I can live a good life. Are you still willing to come with me? If you don't want to, I will just take away those bamboo plaques. I paid for them last time. If you want to use them, you can only buy new ones. ”

Upon hearing this, Huang Laogen quickly expressed his stance:

"Mr. Qiao, I do! I do! I've been waiting for you to come! I've thought about it, you helped me heal my body, and I have to repay the favor! Besides, I'm alone, so I can't live anywhere. Same. If I stay in the village, I will just work every day to feed myself, and then grow old alone. But if I follow you, I can still be of some use. I will definitely help you raise silkworms well and make your village better. I need to be taught well by those who raise silkworms. I will do whatever you ask me to do. There is work to do every day, and if someone needs my teaching, then I will be motivated to do the work, and my life will be enjoyable!"

Seeing that he was so determined to follow her, Qiao Ran smiled and said:

"Okay, then you pack up, and we'll set off later! You put the packed things on the carriage outside the door, and I'll move the bamboo plaques, bamboo sieves and shelves."

Huang Laogen quickly stopped:

"Young Master Qiao, you don't have to go sit here! I'll do the heavy work! My legs are healed and my bones are much better. It won't be a problem to move such a small amount of things."

"No, I'll move it. You can pack it up quickly! You don't need to bring anything with you. Just bring your clothes and shoes. I'll buy the rest for you when we get there."

Huang Laogen thought that he did have a lot to pack, so he stopped stopping Qiao Ran.

He said a few polite words and turned to pack the things he wanted to bring.

As a result, after Qiao Ran moved all the tools out of the silkworm house, she saw Huang Laogen also starting to load the packed things into the carriage.

Pots and pans, benches, tables and chairs, clothes and quilts, even a pickle vat with a piece missing, and several badly worn kitchen knives and machetes were all brought over in two large bamboo baskets.

"Uncle, are you moving? Are you not coming back?"

Huang Laogen was taken aback and asked nonchalantly:

"Mr. Qiao, didn't you agree that I would sell myself as a slave and be a long-term laborer for you for the rest of my life? Where can a long-term laborer come back to live? It's a waste to leave these things here. If I go to your place, I have to spend more money to buy them, so why not just Move them all over. Well, don’t you want me to be there all the time? Or do I have too many things? Then, I’ll throw some away!”

Seeing that he was about to take down the basket from the car, Qiao Ran stopped him and asked seriously:

"Uncle, have you thought about it? In fact, you don't have to do long-term work. You can come back to raise silkworms and sell cocoons in a few months. With your current body and bones, you will be able to work for another three to forty years. You can still save some money and start working again. When you start a family, why do you need to work as a long-term worker without any freedom?"

Huang Laogen was afraid that Qiao Ran would not take him in, so he became a little anxious:

"Mr. Qiao, don't you need long-term labor? Since you said I can work for another thirty or forty years, it's not a loss if you keep me! In addition to raising silkworms, I can also help take care of the mulberry trees. I can work in the fields! Mr. Qiao, please accept me as a long-term worker! I am willing to work for you all the time, for free, as long as I have food to eat, and I can build a thatched shed by myself. It won’t cause you any trouble at all!”

"I really haven't thought about hiring long-term workers, but if you want to go, that's not impossible. You have to think carefully and don't regret it later and disrupt my plan."

"I won't regret it! I won't regret it! I'm willing to be your long-term worker for the rest of my life! I'm willing to do any kind of work, I just ask you not to drive me away!"

The two of them were standing in front of the carriage talking. The old people who were taking care of their children under the big tree at the entrance of the village had already come over to watch the fun.
