Peach Blossom curiously looked behind her as she touched it. "Wa, Rou Sang, your family will have a big meal during the new year. My mother said that only the rich and wealthy families can eat this."

Mu Rousang definitely did not want Peach Blossom to be nicknamed, for example, the female rich owner or the little landlady in the future.

"Peach Blossom, I'm from a big family. This present is made in the past, but it was given to me by someone else. It's not something our family can eat everyday." Even if she had to eat every day, she didn't want to be a rich woman.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's choose some pastries and send it over to your house." There were quite a few pieces of cured meat, so Mu Rousang didn't want to show off. She cut a small piece with her knife and picked out two boxes of Beijing specialty pastries, placing them into the bamboo basket together.

She brought Peach Blossom to Qin Er's house first. Seeing the two of them coming over, the Qin Er enthusiastically pulled Mu Rousang in and sat beside the pyrethrum: "Yo, I was still talking about how Peach Blossom is probably going to eat lunch at your house. Now, it's time for me to prepare some vegetable dumplings for you guys.

When Qin Taohua saw his own mother talk about what had happened today, the Qin Er patted her back and said, "You rascal, you can't just casually talk about this. If those people with red eyes find out, the Ruo Sang Family will not be at peace."

Peach Blossom stuck out her tongue, cuddled in Qin Er's embrace and acted like a spoiled child, "Mother, your daughter is not at home, she's just telling you, I don't even intend to tell our brother."

Ever since Peach Blossom saw that Mu Qingxi and Mu Yun had teamed up to get Brother and sister Mu Rousang away, in her young heart, she had already equated the two of them to dangerous figures of the highest level, like Chusu's dog that watched the courtyard.

Qin Er was overjoyed, "Rou Sang, is that grandpa really going to buy cabbage?"

Mu Rousang nodded her head: "Yes, this time it will cost 100 thousand jin, Second Aunt, how much do you have left? You can report it to me first, I will tell the village chief about the rest."

Her family life this year was much better than the previous years. One was that the peach embroidery activities were more and more easy to sell, and two was that her eldest son, who worked in the town for a long time and had money to bring back, and three was that Mu Rousang would often send some meat food over, raising the two young ones until they were white and tender. Now, their family had all been repaid with debts for many years, and they also had two taels of silver.

"My family still has about sixty to seventy percent of Chinese cabbage. Last time, after I sold about twenty percent, I saw that the pigs in my family got fat and sold one. Now, only one is left for New Year's Eve."

Mu Rousang calculated: "Second Aunt, give me all the cabbages you have left! This way, the Second Aunt will be able to make a small fortune this year. Second Aunt, don't forget to leave a copy for me when you play the game. "

Qin Er was extremely happy. He never thought that such a cheap thing could produce silver worth one mu of land. "Rou Sang, Second Aunt really thanks your family. This year's life is much better than the previous years!"

After Mu Rousang came to this place, the one who was most grateful to him was the one in Qin Er, "Second Aunt, don't be so polite.

Qin Er's eyes moistened. It would be great if the Mu family's wife was still alive!

"Aiyo, look at me. If I were happy, I would forget about another matter. If I didn't take it out now, my Peach Blossom's eyes would have almost destroyed the bamboo basket."

Mu Rousang teased as she opened the lid of the basket and took out a piece of cured meat from inside which was a box of good pastries.

"Second Aunt, if you want to eat meat, go to my house and cut it open for us to eat again. Today, I only cut out a small piece for you so that I wouldn't be too eye-catching, this box of dim sum is for siderocarpus and Peach Blossom to eat."

Qin Er took the meat and looked at the bamboo box containing the pastries. "This box is probably worth a lot of money.

She reached out to touch the Jade Rabbit Painting on the box. "Second Aunt won't be courteous with you. I'm already over ten years old, but this is the first time I've seen how the pastries look in the capital."

Mu Rousang laughed: "You bought the snacks to eat anyway, right, Peach Blossom!"

Looking at the Qin Er's rare look, he would probably not take it out to give to others, "Second Aunt, I will first pay a visit to the Village Chief's house. This letter came a little late, so I'm afraid that the jar will arrive tomorrow."

Qin Er asked anxiously, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Mu Rousang looked at the sky outside, "I probably want to see another batch come out before the New Year, so I will have to delay quite a bit on the road, I think we might have made it in time!"

Peach Blossom, you go with Rou Sang to the Village Head's house. Remember to come back for lunch. I just happened to chop this cured meat into pickles.

Qin Taohua glanced at the pastry box on the table, feeling reluctant to part with it. When she heard that there would be dumplings to eat later, her eyes shone, "Mother, wrap it around me!"

Mu Rousang was thankful for Qin Er's care, it was probably because of the rumors that Mu Yun had gone to her home to steal from his, and the neighbors in the village looked down on him for bullying their own family.

Mu Rousang and Peach Blossom arrived at the Village Chief's house together. The Village Chief had obviously benefited a lot from the cabbage last time, since he had the most land!

It had been some time since they had last seen each other, but the academy wall had already been whitewashed once again. From afar, it looked like it was brand-new.

The two of them went into the courtyard, where Village Head Wife was sitting on a brick bed. Through the window, he could see Mu Rousang carrying a basket in, "Hey, old man, Sang girl is here."

The Village Chief put down the pipe in his hand and shouted towards the courtyard through the window, "Sang girl, the Peach Blossom Girl is here. Come in and have a seat."

The two of them went into the house at the same time, while the Village Head Wife continued to smile happily, "Come sit, Cui Hua, come out quickly, the Sang girl is here."

Mu Rousang reached out and caressed her forehead. Listening to what she had said, it was time to eat! Some did!

The village chief immediately invited the two of them to sit on the brick bed, and Mu Rousang pulled the peach blossoms that she wanted to go over, "No, Village Head Grandpa, Second Aunt is still waiting for us to go back and eat lunch."

Village Head Wife looked at the clock, "Why haven't we eaten yet?"

Mu Rousang laughed and took out some pastries from the basket, "I was busy with work so I took some time to rest. Today, that grandpa sent someone over, I picked up a box of pastries and gave it to little aunt Cui Hua to eat!"

Village Head Wife took it and looked at it, "I'm afraid these pastries are not something that can be bought in a county city." His youngest son was studying in the Prefecture and would bring back some pastries for the holidays.

Peach Blossom, who was at the side, spoke up, "Village Head, this pastry was sent by the young master of Big Silver Bro from the capital."

Village Head Wife was extremely happy when he heard it, "I said, look at this box filled with pastries, it's so much more exquisite than what we sell in this county."

"Village Head Grandpa, I have another matter to attend to this time. That master entrusted me with the purchase of fourteen thousand catties of Chinese cabbage, I wonder if our village has enough of it!"

The village chief calculated in his heart, "There are more than 50 families in the village, who doesn't have a percentage? Although they sold a lot last time, it should be enough this time."

After getting rid of the ones reserved at home, he would be able to sell them for a total of thirty thousand Jin.

"This matter is still done according to the old rules, but my uncle ?"

Mu Rousang looked worriedly at the village chief.

As expected, the Village Head did not disappoint her, "Don't worry, this is a big matter for the whole village, there is no way he can interfere." As he spoke, he cast a sidelong glance at the old woman.

Village Head Wife laughed and scolded him, "You damned old man, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, we even grew 1 mu of land full of cabbages, how can I let her do bad things?

No one noticed Mu Rousang who had lowered her head slightly. A glint flashed across her eyes. Looking at the development of this situation, next year, her house that had a white wall and blue brick, with a glazed roof, was definitely going to be in trouble.

Mu Rousang had lunch at the Qin Er's house, the few of them snuggled up to the brick bed talking and laughing, while doing their needlework, while Second Uncle Qin brought Qin Tieshu to the vegetables and cut them up.

Waiting until Mu Jinzhi's little donkey cart passed by, Mu Rousang finally returned home with him. On the way there, he casually mentioned this matter.

The next morning, Qin Er's family came to help as usual. With these five taels of silver, her family could add an acre of land to their land. Her family could also use more and more of this money.

Qin Er chopped Chinese cabbage as he said to Second Uncle Qin, who was helping to wash the cabbages, "Father, tell me if you want to send Tie Mu to Mister Qin's place to learn some words."

Second Uncle Qin washed the cabbage leaves on his hands, "Didn't you say you wanted to buy land?"

When her husband asked her about it, she calculated in her heart, "The land must be bought, I am looking forward to the next year with less than one mu of land. Chun Mu's monthly silver is enough for him to study in, and with the peach blossoms and my needlework, I would be able to survive the next year of chewing."

"Okay, since the peach blossoms are still young, we can wait for the tree to study for two to three years before we start reading again. If we don't learn well, then we can go out and do some light jobs, and the days at home will slowly get better."

Even if his son couldn't get into the academy, could his son not? He did not believe this was evil!

Qin Er glanced at Mu Rousang, who was paying for her work. This girl remembered kindness, if her family was rich, she would more or less give some soup to her family.

After Mu Rousang wrote down a person's number, she paid on the spot. This was also the most positive thing for the villagers.

"Next, hurry up!" Chusu would always shout loudly.

"Oh? Stupid girl, you've caught on to a rich person?" The voice that Mu Rousang did not want to hear the most sounded out.

Regardless of whether it was the villagers who were leaving or the ones waiting to be praised, all of them were looking at this woman.

"What are you looking at? You've never seen a woman before!" Mulberry was not afraid of offending people in the village.

The villagers looked at her and then looked at Mu Rousang, momentarily unsure of what to do.

Mu Rousang calmly put down the pen, "Eldest Aunt, if you are here to sell cabbages, of course you are welcome. If you are here to cause trouble, the gate to the courtyard is right there."

Mulberry's heart was very unsettled, he did not think that after stripping these two siblings of their family's property, the two of them would have a much better time than before, "Hey, I heard that young master took a fancy to you."

When these words were spread out, it was extremely disgraceful, "Eldest Aunt, I forgot. You had intended to send phoenix to be a child's play, so naturally you wouldn't mind."

As the saying goes, a commoner would rather be a commoner than a rich man's concubine. A concubine only had one type of concubine that could not be casually sold, and that was a concubine that could be naturalized.

"With this kind of parents, Mu Fenge has really lost her life."

"Aiya, why don't you look at the character of this Mulberry couple. What's wrong with this daughter of yours? Just live by yourself."

"Tsk, tsk, I really couldn't tell, but this entire family of the Mulberry is such a dog shit, only the Sang girl is a kind person, she used her identity as an elder to suppress them, and even came to snatch them, but isn't this bullying others without an elder to protect him?"

"No, I have to remind my family. In a few years, there will be a few nephews and nieces who are going to get married. I have to warn them not to fall into this fire kang."

Mu Rousang did not split up the attention among the crowd to pay attention to Mulberry. With so many people present, she did not believe that Mulberry would be able to turn the tables and still be able to sit at the table.

Not long after, a voice that sounded like the drums of Chusu rang out, "You wife, even pigs would despise such lousy cabbages and vegetables, do you think that this is a place to open a good hall?"

Mu Rousang raised her head in shock. It turned out that Mulberry still had not left, and was holding a basket of half rotten cabbages in front of him.

Mulberry was a little afraid of this burly Chusu. He swallowed and replied weakly, "She has the final say on the things my niece collects. It's not like you have the final say."
