I am not a lucky star through time travel

Back at Chu’s house, Chu’s second son still didn’t show up, and he probably left again. Thinking that he was going to take the martial arts exam this year, although Lin Qiao knew a little about the imperial examination, he was not very familiar with the martial arts exam, but he probably had to be like the Ming and Qing Dynasties Like the Liberal Arts and Imperial Examinations in China, you need to prepare for the exam somewhere before taking the exam.

Early the next morning, Xiao Erhei came to invite him to go to the mountains to collect fungi together.

While walking, Xiao Erhei talked about what he would buy when he picked up the fungi and sold them for money, and said that today is the market again, there must be a lot of things, this time he wants to buy a gift for Brother Yu, blah blah blah .

It's the market again so soon?It’s raining and it’s the Cold Food Festival these days, so I haven’t gone to the mountains to make good purchases. When will I be able to collect enough 300 taels?

Xiao Erhei suddenly asked, "How did Erdong's family treat you when they came back this time? Didn't they hit you?"

Lin Qiao smiled embarrassingly, "No."

If you hit him, you won't say anything. Don't tell outsiders such a shameful thing.

its not right!Why do you ask Chu Er Er if he beat him?Thinking of Chu Er Er's vicious look when he came back that day, he asked, "Why do you say whether Chu Er Er hit me? Does he often beat people?"

Xiao Erhei laughed and said, "The second boss's martial arts skills are strong, but his temper is not very good. If anyone makes him unhappy, he will definitely be beaten."

Sure enough!

Xiao Erhei took out a small bag of glutinous rice cakes from his back basket, gave half of it to Lin Qiao, and said with a smile, "This is left over from the tomb-sweeping on the mountain yesterday, try it!"

Hearing this, Lin Qiao hurriedly returned the glutinous rice cakes he put to his mouth, together with the ones in his hand, to Xiao Erhei.How could he, an outsider, eat something that had been sacrificed to his ancestors?

Xiao Erhei asked in confusion, "Why don't you eat?"

Lin Qiao couldn't speak directly, so he could only perfunctoryly say, "Of course the food your ancestors ate should be left for your descendants to eat."

Seeing that the fields on both sides of the road were bare, Lin Qiao asked again, "It's already the tenth day of March, why haven't you raised seedlings yet?"

"Raising seedlings?" Xiao Erhei looked surprised, "It's still early!"

No way!Lin Qiao remembered that his grandfather's house planted rice seedlings around May Day!The modern May Day should be around April in the lunar calendar!How can we catch up with transplanting if we don’t raise seedlings yet?

After thinking about it, he asked again, "How many seasons of rice do you plant in a year?"

Xiao Erhei was a little puzzled, "Once!"

It turns out that there is only one season a year, no wonder they are so poor!

Lin Qiao asked a lot of questions, and only then did he know that because the temperature here is not as high as that in the south, rice can only be grown once a year, and there is no modern fertilizer. When the rice is not planted, the farmland is at rest. Continue planting the next year.

This time there were not as many fungus as before, and it might be because they came too often, each of them picked up most of the baskets.

Xiao Erhei was not depressed, and said with a smile that the money he paid for picking up fungus was almost half a month's wages for his father, and he was already very satisfied.

It's good to be content and happy.

But Lin Qiao was a little depressed. When will he be able to collect 300 taels of silver?And it won't be long before the bamboo shoots are dug, and if it rains a few more times, they will all turn into bamboo.

The two returned to Li's house, but Dahei hadn't come back from the town yet. Aunt Li happened to be going to the vegetable field, so she brought them along, saying that Xiao Erhei would help Lin Qiao open another field.

Because the ground was wet, it wasn't difficult to dig. The two of them opened up half a block in a short time. During the break, Lin Qiao thought of Brother Zhuzi again, and asked, "Did Brother Big Hei go to Brother Zhuzi's house?"

Xiao Erhei nodded, "Go, my uncle is sick, brother Zhuzi has been waiting at home for the past few days!"

When Dahei came back from the town, the three of them ate something random and went to the town by bullock cart.

Brother Zhuzi finally came back this time, but his complexion was not very good, and he looked worried.

Seeing Lin Qiao, Brother Zhuzi patted him on the shoulder, saying that he didn't have to worry about Blacksmith Zhang anymore.

Xiao Erhei went to the calligraphy and painting shop, and bought an inkstone for Chu Yu for three hundred cash.

Seeing that he is usually reluctant to buy a meat bun, but he is willing to spend so much money on an inkstone, Lin Qiao really doesn't understand.

Xiao Erhei held the inkstone and muttered, "I don't know if Brother Yu will like it later?"

Lin Qiao turned her head, "Chu Yu won't go to school today?"

Xiao Erhei smiled, "The school closes every tenth day, but this month is different. The Cold Food Festival is followed by the tenth day of the lunar new year. He stayed at home for a few days this time, and only returned to school this afternoon, but he soon returned to the school. I want to go to the state capital with the second owner's family."

Lin Qiao asked casually, "Is the state capital far from here?"

Xiao Erhei said with a smile, "My brother went to Erdong's house with him, and he said it will arrive in four o'clock. It's very close!"

Nearly eight hours?

In modern times, you can almost travel from north to south by high-speed rail in eight hours.However, thinking of the road conditions and means of transportation in ancient times, Lin Qiao could only shake his head. It was estimated that the road to the state capital would be less than [-] or [-] miles away.

After returning to Chu's second son's yard, Lin Qiao put down his things and went to the vegetable field to continue the unfinished work in the morning. Aunt Li was also there, looking at him with a somewhat uncomfortable expression.

Seeing her hesitant to speak, Lin Qiao asked, "Auntie, what's the matter with you?"

Aunt Li hesitated for a moment, but still said, "There are gossips about you in the village!"

Lin Qiao smiled, "I'm not afraid, I'm a man and wife, they will definitely gossip."

Aunt Li sighed, "Besides this, there are other things."

Could it be that he made money selling mountain goods, and someone was jealous?

Seeing that he was silent, Aunt Li gritted her teeth and said, "It's the Bai family, you didn't come back, and everyone in the Bai family said you were ungrateful!"

Lin Qiao laughed angrily, "Am I ungrateful? They married me off as a man for 300 taels of dowry, and they didn't even give me a dowry. How dare they call me ungrateful for doing such a vile thing?"

Aunt Li said with a complicated expression, "The Bai family said they gave you a dowry, and they also said they gave you 100 taels of silver."

And such a thick-skinned person?Lin Qiao was really angry, so she said angrily, "They said they gave a dowry of 100 taels of silver? Aunt Li, they said they had it? Is there a list of dowry? Does the Chu family know? Did they give silver ingots or dowry? Ticket? If it is silver ingots, how many taels is it? Do you know? If it is a bank note? Which bank is it from? I heard that the dowry from the Chu family was 100 taels of silver in vain, without a single silver note."

Seeing that Aunt Li still looked worried, Lin Qiao's heart skipped a beat, "They didn't mean they secretly gave it to me, did they? Aunt Li, do you believe this too?"

Aunt Li's expression was quite complicated, and she said after a while, "I told you to go back at the time, if you had gone back then, this would not have happened."

It seemed that she still believed Aunt Bai's words. Lin Qiao felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't expect that even Aunt Li didn't believe him, so she said disappointedly, "Believe it or not, anyway, I didn't see the 100 taels."

After finishing speaking, he bent down and started digging. It's no big deal, it's just a few gossips, and he won't be killed.

Seeing him like this, Aunt Li went back to Boss Chu's vegetable field awkwardly.

Lin Qiao hoeed for a while, and suddenly remembered that when she came to Chu's house, there was a crossbow in her bag. Although the crossbow was a small crossbow, it weighed five catties. Aunt Li wouldn't think it was silver, would she?If so, it looks like he's lying.

If Aunt Li really misunderstood, he can't explain it!The crossbow was originally a contraband, wouldn't it be a disaster for yourself if you said it?Lin Qiao threw the hoe away, it was so annoying!

The brothers of the Li family continued to help Lin Qiao dig the ground after eating. Xiao Erhei said while digging, "Isn't it tiring to do this kind of work? Judging by the appearance of your skin and tender flesh, you don't seem like someone who can do this kind of work. How about You rest, we brothers will be done in a while."

Seeing Xiao Erhei being so caring, Lin Qiao was no longer angry.Why are you angry!Angry with himself, the family surnamed Bai was happy.

After turning over the two fields carefully, Aunt Li came over and said in a nonchalant manner, "Just dig it like this. When your vegetable seedlings are ready, you can plant them."

Lin Qiao was also a little embarrassed, but he didn't know how to explain it to Aunt Li, so he had to go back to Chu's second courtyard to get the seedlings he had bred.

The vegetable seedlings grew very well and were ready to be transplanted. Aunt Li was very surprised when she saw the vegetable seedlings in the wooden pot. She did not expect the seeds to grow so well and so quickly in such a short few days!

The days soon came to the end of March, and Lin Qiao had been at Chu's house for a month.Except for rainy days, he usually goes into the mountains. No matter what, he can always find something, some valuable and some worthless. Anyway, he is lucky.

Sometimes he couldn't help feeling, how could he be so lucky?Every time you enter the mountain, you will gain something.

For other villagers, if they are lucky, they can find some worthless fungus, or dig wild vegetables or bitter bamboo shoots, but if they are unlucky, they can't find anything, so they have to chop a few bundles of firewood and go home.

In addition to good luck, there was another thing that made him feel very strange. The vegetable seedlings he planted grew better than Aunt Li's in a few days after transplanting.

This is not scientific!Aunt Li's vegetable seedlings are planted earlier than his, and they are more diligent in tending them. It doesn't make sense!

And he is busy going to the mountains to get mountain goods every day, so he doesn't spend as much time in the vegetable field as Aunt Li.Except for occasional weed removal, no fertilizer was applied, and water was rarely poured.How do you look so good?Are the seeds better?
