Sign in and get rich in farming

Yu Sanlang was gone until midnight. When he came back, Yu Hongdou had woken up from his nap and had pulled the slingshot 30 times in the teaching mode.

Her current archery experience is level 1 16%. She reached this level on the second day. Yu Hongdou was also very surprised. Compared with embroidery, the progress bar increased a bit too fast.

She tasted it carefully and soon discovered that the growth pattern of this progress was a multi-dimensional calculation. In addition to diligent practice, the two dimensions of speed and accuracy were also added.

It just so happened that Yu Hongdou's accuracy was pretty good. He would hit the ten rings two or three times out of ten times, and the rest were around the seven, eight, and nine rings. He never missed the target.

If she can continue to practice outside and gain experience, her archery skill will probably reach level two soon. Then with another 5 points, she can go shopping at all the places she wants to sign in at in the village!

With this beautiful wish in mind, Yu Hongdou contentedly exited the teaching mode, just in time to hear her father coming in and talking to her mother.

As a habitual little offender who pretended to be asleep and eavesdropped in the corner, she kept her body motionless, maintained her breathing rhythm, and eavesdropped openly.

"Where have you been? Why did you come back so late? Have you eaten?" Mrs. Xu poured hot water on a cloth and handed it to her husband, her tone both angry and concerned.

"It's okay. Hongdou's words woke me up. I was asking someone to pass a message to Xiaosong, but I met my father outside and was delayed for a while." Yu Sanlang wiped his face and threw the towel back into the basin.

Thinking of his father whom he had just met, Yu Sanlang couldn't help but sigh: "Dad said that Hazelnut didn't want Liu to have a child, and then he wanted to marry Liu Xingniang, the niece of my eldest brother-in-law."

Xu was taking food out of the cupboard. She almost threw the bowl in her hand after hearing this: "Xing Niang? Didn't you get married a long time ago?"

"Well, Hazelnut said she was divorced because she couldn't have children after the miscarriage." Yu Sanlang was really hungry. He picked up a steamed bun, broke it open, picked up a few pickles, and stuffed them into his mouth.

"...Why didn't he say it earlier? Hazel is the eldest grandson after all, and it's not that he can't come up with eight taels of silver. It's a closer marriage and good for my eldest sister." Mrs. Xu didn't understand what Hazel was thinking.

It was something that could have been accomplished, but it turned out like this.

Liu Xingniang is the daughter of the eldest uncle of Yu Sanlang's elder sister Yu Lianpo. The uncle and his wife of the Liu family favor sons over daughters. For the sake of their son, they regard their three daughters as objects to be sold.

Liu Xingniang was beautiful and a good silkworm breeder. Many families were interested in her at the time, but she was finally betrothed to a silk reeling family in a neighboring town for a dowry of eight taels of silver.

Before Xu married into the Yu family, her mother had speculated about the family's background and knew that the Yu family was definitely not poor. Not to mention how much money Mr. Yu had before he settled down, he had earned a lot of money just by collecting and selling herbs in the mountains over the years.

After all, new rice will drop in price when it replaces old grain, but I have never heard of herbs dropping in price. What's more, herbs are a no-cost business that can only make money.

To marry Liu Xingniang, not to mention the money from the old man and the old lady in the palace, the private money in the eldest wife's hand would be enough.

When Yu Sanlang married her, the private money he handed over was more than eight taels. For a couple like the eldest wife who are so frugal, the private money they gave would only be more, not less.

"You didn't know that you got married late. When my eldest sister was at home, she often caused trouble for my eldest sister-in-law." Yu Sanlang shook his head. His eldest sister and his eldest sister-in-law were always at loggerheads with each other, and neither of them was worry-free.

"That's impossible now. Liu is not a fool. She will give up her position to Xingniang after giving birth to a child." Xu couldn't understand Hazelnut's idea. Did he think wife swapping was easy? He might be sued.

Yu Sanlang ate a steamed bun in silence, looked at his wife, then looked at his daughter lying on the kang, and said in a low voice:

"I originally wanted to move directly to the city after the separation and buy a house on the edge of the city or in the suburbs so that my family can be reunited."

"I never thought that the county magistrate would think highly of me and assign me the job of trying to grow medicinal herbs. Now I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the village for another year or so."

"Dad came to me just now because he was feeling aggrieved and wanted me to give him some advice. But I can't and don't want to take charge of this matter." Yu Sanlang probably understood what his father meant.

Either ask him to help come up with ideas to deal with Liu, or ask him to take a step back and let Liu come back, but why?

Why should he be a bad guy or compromise for the boss?

"Hui Ru, let's move out." As soon as he said this, Yu Sanlang lost his appetite. He pushed the table away and collapsed backwards as if he had lost his strength.

"Master, I will listen to you. There is nothing wrong with moving out. It will be quiet and peaceful. I can teach Hongdou to read." Mrs. Xu hugged her husband with heartache.

She knew that her husband was really hurt. Even though the first wife's family was in trouble and even though the third wife had made progress, the old man couldn't help but ignore the first wife and wanted them to help manage her.

Mrs. Xu smiled bitterly when she thought of what she had said to her daughter in the evening. She never expected that in the end they would move out and let Mrs. Liu come back.

"It's okay, I'm just tired." Yu Sanlang leaned against his wife and rested for a while, letting go of some of the energy in his heart, and began to tell his wife about the arrangements he had made.

"I'm worried about letting you and Hongdou go to the city alone now. After all, our roots are in the village. I thought we should build a small house to live in first, and then expand it when we have more time."

Yu Sanlang sat up again. He had just finished talking with his father, and the first thing that came to his mind was how to arrange for his wife and daughter. He had no time to feel sad.

When he entered the room and saw his wife, a deep feeling of grievance surged up in his heart, but it was quickly soothed by his wife's tenderness.

When judging the length of ten fingers, people tend to be partial to one thing.

Although my parents think that the eldest brother is not ambitious, he is their first child and their future support in old age. It is normal for them to prefer the eldest son and hope that he will be better.

Xu didn't care about the size of the house, but now the villagers helped each other to build the house. Spring plowing was coming soon, and they had to plant medicinal herbs this year. Basically, the villagers were busy before June.

Mrs. Xu didn't want her husband to owe someone a favor because of the house, so she hesitated for a moment and said, "Spring ploughing is about to start, and I'm afraid the villagers may not be able to spare the time. Head of the family, do you remember my father's old house?"

"Your old house? The one near Nanshan?" Yu Sanlang couldn't help but frown when he thought of the house.

Xu's stepfather was a good builder. He built the first stone house in Taoyuan Village at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, leaning against half of the mountain wall.

The house is in a good location and is solidly built, but it is a bit off the beaten track.

But when Xu's younger brother got married, his father-in-law's family was so disgusted that they didn't want to marry their daughter to him. Later, they rebuilt their house in the village and were able to marry a daughter-in-law.

When Xiaosong was six years old, Xu's mother passed away. Within three years, her stepfather also passed away, and the house became empty. However, it has not gone bankrupt until now, which is enough to show how solid it is.

"No, it's too remote. I'm worried about you and your daughter, as they are the only ones at home." Yu Sanlang rejected his wife without hesitation.

But his wife was right. Spring ploughing and planting medicines could not be delayed. He had to think about it carefully...
