Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

Old Man Zheng sighed inwardly as he listened to his second daughter-in-law's words.

They are both daughters-in-law, so why is there such a big difference between them?

No matter what the second daughter-in-law says or does, she always makes the two old people feel warm.

He counted out ten coins from the thirty coins in front of him and said, "These are all Dad needs. You can keep the rest."

Seeing that Zhou Chunfeng was about to say something, he waved his hand at her and said, "Don't argue with me anymore. Your mother and I care about your family the most.

Only when your family can live a good life can your mother and I put our worries at ease.

Otherwise, even if we die, neither of us will be able to close our eyes."

Zheng Dashan felt uncomfortable listening to his father's words, "Dad, look at what you are talking about, not about life or death."

Zheng Xiaoman also didn't like this depressing atmosphere. He should be happy for making money, but why was he talking about death?

She ran over with a smile and took her grandfather's hand and acted coquettishly, "Grandpa, with your and my grandma's bodies, you will definitely live a hundred years.

You and my grandma are not even fifty years old yet. In the future, you will have to watch my brother get married and have children, and my brother's children will get married and have children.

By then, we will have five generations living under one roof, it will be so lively.”

It is said that Zheng Xiaoman is good at coaxing people. Whatever the old man likes to hear, he likes to hear that he will have many children and grandchildren in the future.

"Hahahaha, oh, if it's really like what my granddaughter said, I'd be so happy."

Thinking about the scene of five generations living together in his family in the future, he became the old grandfather of the family. Looking at a group of children playing around him, his eyes were narrowed with laughter.

"Master, I didn't lie. So you and my grandma should worry less from now on. Just eat well, drink well, and take good care of yourselves.

Our family will live better and better, and my father's leg will definitely be cured, so don't worry."

Old Man Zheng patted his granddaughter's head with satisfaction, "Okay, Grandpa will live well and wait for the day when our family will have five generations living under one roof."

Zheng Dashan saw that his daughter had made the old man happy with just a few words, and he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

Old Man Zheng stood up and said, "Okay, I'll take two bags of acorns back to grind into powder. Acorn powder is really good stuff. We must pick more next year."

Zheng Xiaoman nodded in agreement, "We will also plant sweet potatoes and beets next year. Our family will only get better and better next year."

"Haha, I got it. Okay, you guys should take a break. You've been busy all day."

Zheng Xiaoman sent her grandfather to the door, then went to the river to retrieve the fish basket.

There are a lot fewer loaches in the basket today, but a lot more small fish.

When she got home, she poured all the fish into a basin, then went back to her room and lay down to rest for a while.

She lay on the kang, pounded her waist, and then fell asleep in a daze.

When she woke up again, it was getting dark outside.

The sounds of Lixia and Chunya playing could be heard in the yard, as well as the smell of food wafting from the kitchen.

Zheng Xiaoman rubbed her eyes. She slept very comfortably.

She opened the door and came out of the house. Lixia saw her and ran over happily.

"Sister, you're awake."

Zheng Xiaoman touched his head and said, "Well, I just wanted to lie down for a while, but I fell asleep. Where's my brother?"

She looked around the yard but didn't see Zheng Qingming.

"Brother went to the river to wash the pigs. He will be back soon."

Zheng Xiaoman then remembered that the pig offal he had bought had not yet been processed.

She walked into the yard and saw that her brother had also cleaned up the loaches and miscellaneous fish.

Her brother has been busy since he came back from school.

Zheng Xiaoman said to Lixia, "I'll go to the river to see if my brother has finished cleaning up."

"Sister, I'll go with you."

"Okay, let's go, hold Chun Ya's hand."

The three siblings walked towards the river and immediately saw Zheng Qingming squatting by the river.

"Brother, there are still some that haven't been washed. Let me wash them." Zheng Xiaoman walked quickly over and squatted beside her brother.

Zheng Qingming turned around and smiled at her when he heard the voice. "It's okay. There's just a pair of pig offal left to be washed. I can do it myself. Don't get your hands dirty."

He grabbed a handful of wood ash and rubbed it on his large intestine, then put it in the river to clean it.

Zheng Xiaoman squatted on the side watching his brother work, and suddenly thought of something.

"Brother, our family is doing business now. Will it affect your chances of taking the imperial examination?"

She remembered that in many dynasties in history, the sons of merchants were not allowed to take part in the imperial examinations.

Such a system should have existed in the Tang Dynasty. Li Bai was not allowed to take the imperial examination because his father was a businessman.

Zheng Qingming was stunned by her question, "Little sister, why do you ask that? We don't have such a rule in the Ming Dynasty. Except for criminals, everyone else can take the imperial examination."

Zheng Xiaoman was also stunned. Ming Dynasty? Not Ming Dynasty?

"Brother, our current country is called Ming Dynasty? What's the emperor's name?"

Zheng Qingming only heard about this from his teacher after he went to school, and he said to his sister, "We are now in Wangjia Village, Chengyang County, Qinghe Town, Daming Country.

As for the name of the current emperor, I don’t know, I only know that the current emperor is Emperor Mingcheng.”

The Ming Dynasty, Emperor Cheng of Ming, this was indeed not the historical dynasty that Zheng Xiaoman was familiar with.

Zheng Xiaoman has been here for so long, and now she finally has some understanding of the time and space she is in. She should have traveled to a parallel time and space.

No wonder there are sweet potatoes, corn, and even beets here.

But she is just a little country girl now, and it doesn’t matter to her who the emperor is.

But fortunately, her current emperor is not incompetent, and can be said to be a very capable emperor.

This can be seen just by looking at the good weather and lack of war in the country.

Moreover, their current land tax is one in thirty, which is already a very low land tax.

If she were born in a war-torn country, her life would probably not be as leisurely as it is now.

Zheng Qingming quickly washed the last piece of pig offal, and the four brothers and sisters returned home carrying the buckets.

After dinner, Zheng Xiaoman put the pork offal into the pot to stew, and Zhou Chunfeng also kneaded some more dough and added it to rise.

After finishing all this, it was almost ten o'clock.

Zheng Xiaoman looked at her mother rubbing her waist tiredly, thought for a moment and said, "Mom, how about we stop making dry food and just cook dishes from now on?"

Zhou Chunfeng looked at her daughter in confusion, "Why? We earn a lot of money every day from making dry food."

"Mom, you see, steaming dry food requires a lot of acorn powder, and it also takes a very long time.

I don't have to grind the acorns into powder, but you have to knead the dough and let it rise every day, and then get up early the next day to steam so much dry food. It's really time-consuming and laborious.

Moreover, we sell dry food here, so the dry food sold at other stalls is not easy to sell.

Over time, people will always feel resentful.

Why don’t we just sell vegetables and let them buy dry food from other stalls? This way, both sides will win and there will be fewer conflicts.”

This is the best solution Zheng Xiaoman can think of. It will not make their family members too tired, and it can also ease the conflicts with other stalls.
