Leisurely Daily [System]

That night, Jiang Fan told Guan Xiujin that they would go back to sleep in the bamboo hut on the other side.

Gu Changqing was at home all the time, Jiang Fan and Guan Xiujin would occasionally go to the bamboo house on the other side if they wanted to make sauce, and do it unscrupulously.

So when he heard what Jiang Fan said, Guan Xiujin thought that Jiang Fan was thinking about it, but when he went to the bamboo house at night, Guan Xiujin noticed that Jiang Fan had been sneaking at him, and felt a little strange.

The two sat by the window, Guan Xiujin watched Jiang Fan hesitate to speak for a while, then smiled slightly, "Is there something you want to tell me but can't say it?"

Jiang Fan looked at Guan Xiujin, and said a bit tangled, "Ah Jin, can I trust you?"

Seeing that Jiang Fan was uneasy, Guan Xiu took him into his arms with one hand and said, "If you feel uneasy, then you just have to trust yourself." He kissed Jiang Fan's forehead, "This is the safest way."

Jiang Fan buried his head in Guan Xiujin's chest for a while, then got up and looked at Guan Xiujin: "I have a way to obtain some strange plants, you should be aware of this."

Guan Xiujin nodded, "Is there any harm to you?" This Guan Xiujin wanted to ask a long time ago, he was not curious about Jiang Fan's acquisition method, he was just worried that it would be harmful to him, but because it was Jiang Fan's secret, he didn't It's better to speak first.

Jiang Fan shook his head: "No harm."

Guan Xiujin said: "That's good."

Sure enough, he had already guessed, Jiang Fan thought.Seeing that Guan Xiujin didn't ask carefully, Jiang Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.He didn't explain in detail, as long as he passed the clear road with Guan Xiujin, it would be much easier for him to do things in the future, and he would no longer have to be sneaky and act like a thief in front of Guan Xiujin.

Putting aside one matter on his mind, Jiang Fan was very excited and spent an unscrupulous night in the bamboo hut with Guan Xiujin.When he got up the next day, Jiang Fan told Guan Xiujin that he wanted to borrow his bamboo house.

Guan Xiujin knew what Jiang Fan was supposed to be doing here, so for his convenience, he also took everyone around him away, and left the bamboo house by boat together.

After Guan Xiujin left, Jiang Fan took out all the hundred jade cage trees stored in the package and placed them on the open space in front of the bamboo house.Then he went back immediately, asked someone to pull the carriage, made a detour, and transported the hundred trees back to Lishan Village.

Guan Xiujin stayed in Jiang Fan's Zhuangzi with his people, and didn't tell them to leave until Jiang Fan came back at noon.

"Finished?" Guan Xiu asked.

"It's done." After Jiang Fan took a sip of tea, he approached Guan Xiujin with a smile and kissed him, "Thank you, Ah Jin."

Guan Xiujin chased after him with his eyes closed, kissed him for a while, and said after parting, "Since you trust me, how can I disappoint you."

Carrying heavy treasures is always easy to be coveted.Since Guan Xiujin knew the secret of his lover, he naturally helped to cover it up carefully.

Jiang Fan planned to plant a yulong tree along the side of the western mountain. The trees were brought back to the village, and they were still piled up at the foot of the mountain. It took some effort to plant it.

The seeds of Tianqiaoguo and Caoyaguo were also planted in the planned area and seedlings began to grow.

In this way, the plants that were traded before were almost planted, and only floating flowers were left.

Floating flowers are aquatic plants, and this is the first time Jiang Fan has planted aquatic plants in the field for so long.Floating flowers need to be planted in water, Jiang Fan thought for a while, and then set his sights on the only lotus pond in the village.

In the lotus pond in the village, Jiang Hai’s family contracted to plant lotus roots. In recent years, whether they are son-in-law or daughter-in-law, their family has found a stable job in Lishan Village by virtue of their relationship. The management is looking for outsiders.

This season is the time to dig lotus root.There was only a little water left in the lotus pond, Jiang Fan and Guan Xiujin walked over like a walk, and saw many laborers hired by Jiang Hai's family standing in the lotus pond with mud, digging the lotus root.

The buyer of these lotus roots was negotiated early in the morning. Jiang Hai's wife, Jiang Chen, was watching the workers weighing the lotus roots into baskets on the bank. Beside her, Jiang Lian's daughter, Zhang Yaoer, and Jiang Gui's two sons squatted beside her to play.

Seeing Jiang Fan, Zhang Yaoer immediately ran over happily, "Uncle Jiang." Then she timidly glanced at Guan Xiujin, who had always been paralyzed, and called out in a low voice, "Uncle Guan."

The two little boys also yelled, and then hid behind their sister, they were more shy than Zhang Yao'er.

Jiang Chen smiled and touched the heads of each of them.School was on vacation today, and Jiang Fan knew that the three children of Jiang Hai's family were there, so he grabbed a handful of candy when he came over, and now he shared some with each other.

Guan Xiujin faced more children than Jiang Fan. Although he only nodded, he still had candy in his hand. He spread out his palms and handed them to the three children one by one for them to take by themselves.

It was the first time for the three children to eat the candy given by Guan Xiujin, and they were all a little surprised. After taking his candy and looking at Guan Xiujin's eyes, they were not so afraid.

Seeing the commotion here, Mrs. Jiang Chen hurriedly put aside what she was doing for a while, and walked over and said, "I'm picky here, why did my master and Mr. Guan Lang come here? Let someone come over and tell me something."

Jiang Fan said: "We are also free to come and have a look."

He looked at the lotus root waiting to be weighed on the shore, and asked, "How is the harvest this year?"

Mrs. Jiang Chen sighed and said, "You also know that there was a lack of water in the pond due to the drought, so we brought water from the river. The lotus root is not in good condition, and many people are unwilling to buy it."

This is how people eat when they see the sky. In a good harvest year, they are happy, but in a disaster year, they don’t know where to cry. Lishan Village is fine, and unless it’s not a terrible drought, there is usually water for Lishan Village.Jiang Haijia's lotus root production this year has been reduced by half compared to last year, and the manpower hired this year is subtracted. It is a waste of time.

There is also a job provided by Jiang Fan, so Jiang Hai's family is heartbroken, but they don't have to worry about food and drink. Life is still easier than before.

Jiang Fan said, "Will your family still grow lotus root next year?"

As soon as Jiang Chen heard it, he knew that Jiang Fan might want to contract the lotus pond, and said to Jiang Fan, "I'll ask my old man in the evening."

Jiang Fan nodded and smiled, "Okay."

After talking about the matter, Jiang Fan was about to leave, so Jiang Chen hurriedly picked up a basket of lotus roots, handed them to Zhang Shumo, and told him to go back and eat.

Jiang Fan hasn't eaten lotus root a few times this year, so he's not polite, and he will ask Uncle Zhang to make lotus root sandwiches when he brings it back.

In the evening, after Jiang Fan had eaten, Jiang Hai took time to come over.

Jiang Hai went home and heard Jiang Chen mention this matter, asked his family's opinions, and finally decided not to plant next year.In the past, when they did not have a stable job, they definitely had to guard the lotus pond firmly, but now they have more than enough energy, and they are thinking about the lotus pond every day, so it is better to put it away from their hands and make money with peace of mind.And even if they stopped planting, there were still a few years before the contract period of their family. When Jiang Fan took over, they would not lose the contract fee for those years.

After getting a reply from Jiang Hai that he would not plant lotus root next year, Jiang Fan immediately wrote a contract and signed it with Jiang Hai. After the water in the lotus pond was dug up, he could refill the water in early spring next year and plant his floating flowers.

A few days after the lotus pond was wrapped up, Jiang Fan saw more and more yellow leaves on the sweet potato vines in the field. At this time, the frost was too early. They dug it out, and dug a cellar, and put all the intact sweet potatoes in for storage.

One day, Jiang Fan and Guan Xiujin were outside, squatting on the opening of the newly dug cellar to watch the workers hide sweet potatoes, when a young man from Zhuangzi hurried over, "Boss, someone came from Zhuangzi, she said it was your grandmother."

Jiang Fan stood up, tidied his clothes, and heard Guan Xiujin say, "It's really about the same time as you expected."

Jiang Fan asked the boy: "Is my uncle here?"

The boy nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Fan raised his legs and went back to Zhuangzi, he laughed and said, "I don't know if my uncle fought with the other party or not."

The boy had a sweaty expression on his face, "No."

Jiang Fan and Guan Xiujin returned to Zhuangzi, and a steward was waiting by the door. When he saw Jiang Fan, he rushed over and quickly told him what happened just now while walking with Jiang Fan.

Just now, the gate of Zhuangzi was suddenly slammed, which frightened the two gatekeepers. You must know that the people around Lishan Village are not humble and polite to their master. Done enough courtesy.It was the first time that the gate of Jiangjiazhuangzi was rudely slammed like this.

The two boys opened the door, and saw four women and two men standing in front of the door. The two men seemed to be servants. The two women and a middle-aged woman were dressed as maidservants. They surrounded the old lady in the middle. .

The old lady had drooping eyelids and drooping corners of her mouth. When she looked at people, her eyes were cold and unsmiling. She didn't have the slightest kindness of an old man, and her face was mean.

At that time, the middle-aged woman who was supporting the old lady saw the door open and said proudly, "Is this Master Jiang Fanjiang's Zhuangzi?"

Although the boys felt that the other party was rude, but their boss would not look at people like that, so they replied politely: "Yes."

Just about to ask who they are, the middle-aged woman looked at them contemptuously and scolded them: "Stupid thing, what are you doing standing there, the old lady is back, and you still don't welcome me in!"

But it cannot be said that you are who you are, the boys must go in to confirm, just let them wait a while, it is like stabbing a hornet's nest, two men rushed up to teach them that they don't understand the rules, and the two were killed After a while of pushing and shoving, the people inside heard the movement and rushed out to pull the two of them apart. After a young man escaped, he quickly went to find the steward. The steward was talking to Gu Changqing. Gu Changqing went out in person after hearing this.

When the two sides faced each other, Gu Changqing hadn't reacted yet, the old lady who was wearing a rich dress and holding it before exploded first, pointing at Gu Changqing's nose and yelling.

The old lady scolded really badly, Gu Changqing didn't let the old lady go in at all, but the steward said that letting them go outside would bring a bad name to the owner, so Gu Changqing gave in and walked away with a sullen face.

After the steward finished speaking, the side hall also arrived. Before Jiang Fan entered, he heard the old lady inside yelling and cursing. He shook his head and walked in directly. Looking at Gu Changqing, he saw his uncle's face was ashen, his forehead The blue veins are bulging out, which shows that I have endured hard work.
