Sign in and get rich in farming

Chapter 145 They Are Our Own People

Tian Manman didn't expect it to be so smooth, so smooth that she couldn't help but wonder if the third house had some new plan. But when she thought that it was her own request, she put it aside for the moment and discussed it in detail with Duan Zhuangtou.

Duan Zhuangtou was impartial and quickly decided that the servants would deliver four baskets of vegetables and two chickens and ducks every three days. The tentative target of delivering 100 eggs per month was set, and if that was not enough, more would be added.

The price is about the same as what Tian Manman buys from vegetable vendors in the city. The good thing is that the vegetables are fresh and the supply will not be interrupted due to any incident. After the decision is made, Tian Manman took the initiative to sign the documents.

Xu looked at Tian Manman in surprise. She didn't expect Tian Manman to be so well prepared. She had never been able to figure out this fourth brother's wife. She thought it seemed thorough, but in fact it was full of loopholes.

However, Xu didn't plan to have much contact with this sister-in-law, so she didn't bother to pursue the matter.

After the work was done, the room was silent. Tian Manman hesitated for a moment, then started talking with a hint of probing: "Third brother and his wife may not know yet, but eldest brother and his wife are both sick, and it looks quite serious."

Yu Sanlang didn't bother to look at Tian Manman, nor did he say hello to her. He turned around and talked to Xu: "You entertain my sister-in-law. I'll go see what the two children are busy with."

“…” Tian Manman’s face froze and he complained wildly in his heart.

This third uncle really didn't hide his dislike for me at all. Even though he was so rude, he could still get rich. God was really blind.

"..." Mrs. Xu looked at her husband's back angrily. Did she have something to say to this sister-in-law?

"Sister-in-law, Fourth Brother has gone to report for duty. It's not safe for you to stay in the city alone. Why don't you bring your eldest brother and his wife over to help you shake things up? This will prevent them from having wild thoughts at home and getting even more ill." Xu looked back at Tian Manman and smiled.

"No, if my elder brother and his wife become more seriously ill due to overwork, it will be my fault. Let's go back to visit them more often and comfort them when we have time." Tian Manman was outmaneuvered and awkwardly avoided the topic.

She regretted her own bad mouth. She had clearly come here with a purpose, so why was she talking about the eldest daughter-in-law?

"By the way, Third Sister-in-law may not know yet! That soap toy of Yu Wangzhai is selling like hot cakes. I heard that it was all Hongdou's idea? How come this kid is so smart." Tian Manman was able to give and take, and she played a straight ball to Xu.

"Oh~ How could it be that she thought of it alone? Her father and brother make her proud." Obviously, she and her husband had never thought of hiding their daughter's intelligence, but when facing Tian Manman, Xu's first reaction was to cover it up.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Tian Manman was half-believing and half-doubting.

"It's nothing, actually." Xu pretended to have said something wrong and covered her mouth with embarrassment. She seemed to be unable to bear Tian Manman's stare, so she muttered softly.

"Your third brother heard that there are many talented women in the capital, and he was not convinced. In his heart, Hongdou is perfect. He kept talking to Xiaosong about how he must not lose out, and he found several teachers for Hongdou."

After saying this, Xu seemed to finally be unable to hold back any longer and continued to complain: "If you ask me, Hongdou is very talented in needlework. She only needs to learn a few more words. It's exhausting to learn so much."

Tian Manman stared at Xu closely, and seeing that her expression of heartache did not seem fake, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could it be that the third house wanted to give Hongdou a reputation as a talented woman so that she could marry into the capital in the future?

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the three young masters of the Tan family who had come to Taoyuan Village before were not very old.

The youngest was only five years older than Hongdou. When the three young masters returned to Beijing, they gave Hongdou a lot of gifts...

"When I just came in, I saw an old man. Is he the teacher that my third brother found for Hongdou?" Tian Manman hid what he was thinking and followed Xu's chatter.

"Yes, Mr. Mo teaches counting and other things. There is also one who teaches calligraphy and painting. He is giving lessons to Hongdou now and then. Master Shang also gives some pointers from time to time." Xu looked helpless.

Tian Manman was stunned for a moment. The surname Mo, the carpentry she had just seen, and the toys in Yu Wangzhai made her think of the most famous family in history.

No! The scene just now flashed before his eyes. He was afraid that the third room was selling dog meat under the guise of sheep. They were training Yu Hongdou to build momentum for Hongdou, but in fact, these two teachers were found for Yu Song, or they were found by Yu Song himself.

The male protagonists in male-oriented dramas all rely on their domineering aura to attract some talented people, who can help him pave the way for his career and also serve as a shield.

At first, I only thought about Yu Hongdou’s three times in danger, but looking back, the origin of all this was Yu Sanlang rescuing people and Yu Song entering the city.

Thinking about it this way...there is a great possibility that Yu Sanlang is a time traveler!

Tian Manman was overwhelmed. The two men in the third room were too shrewd. Their methods were always vague and confusing, and she and Yu Heng had become estranged from their family!

"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law!" Seeing Tian Manman's expression change from complicated to dull, Xu sneered in her heart and put on a concerned expression on her face.

"Ah? Ah! I'm sorry, Third Sister-in-law, I was thinking too far ahead. It's hard for Hongdou to learn at such a young age. How is her health? When will you return to the village?" Tian Manman came back to her senses.

She decided to find someone to test it out first to see if she could trick them out. Psychologically, she was more inclined to believe that Yu Sanlang or Yu Song was a time traveler. Male time travelers have a special kind of tolerance towards female time travelers.

It wouldn't matter if Yu Hongdou was a time traveler. Their age and status meant they wouldn't turn against each other for a man. Yu Heng and Yu Sanlang weren't enemies, so it would be easier for them to form an alliance.

After all, they are from the same world and have the same identity.

Having made up his mind, Tian Manman regained his confidence, and looked at Xu with contempt and pity unconsciously in his eyes.

Xu raised her hand and covered her twitching mouth with a handkerchief, then silently lowered her eyes and rolled her eyes.

Tian Manman suggested going to see Hongdou, and Xu agreed without hesitation. She wanted to see what her sister-in-law was proud of and what she felt pity for.

In the front yard, Yu Song and Mo Shougui's Huarong Road competition has ended and they are now playing a jigsaw puzzle.

They played a more advanced game, playing four shuffled puzzles at the same time to see who could finish first.

Yu Sanlang stood by and lit incense to tell the time. He held a Huarong Dao in his hand and stared at the two men's hands intently, trying hard not to make any comments.

The competition was at its most intense when Xu and Tian Manman came over.

"What are you doing?" Xu watched her son put down one puzzle piece and pick up another one, fiddling with it intently.

Mo Shougui was fiddling with two puzzles with both hands at the same time, and both puzzles were about to be completed.

Tian Manman looked at Yu Song, then at Mo Shougui, and seemed to move in between the two of them inadvertently, and said in a low but clear voice: "Odd changes, but even remains the same?"

Mo Shougui paused, raised his head and looked at the woman who was blocking him. After looking her up and down, he frowned and replied in a deep voice: "The symbol depends on the quadrant."

Yu Hongdou, who just finished class and came to watch the game: "..."
