The fields in another valley were all planted with rapeseed this year in addition to wheat. The oil of the Liang Dynasty mainly came from animal fat frying oil, and the other part was sesame oil. Sesame oil was very expensive. A pound of sesame oil was more expensive than animal oil, and ordinary people could not afford it. Gu Shuixiu planned to grow some rapeseed flowers to see if they could squeeze out the oil.

If she can fry oil, she can save a fortune, and even add some fried foods to the store, and then lower the price a little, the poor in this world are short of oil and water, even if Most people also value oil more than salt. If you can really squeeze out the oil yourself, plus the flour produced at home, it is not a problem to get some low-cost food.

With this idea, Gu Shuixiu was motivated. Unlike other crops, rapeseed hardly picks the soil. As long as the land is not too barren, it can generally survive. Gu Shuixiu simply let Dong Chenghu Sowing seeds in the ground and throwing the extra seeds on the hillside by the way, the seeds are not worth much, if the rapeseed flowers really grow, she will earn it.

After a night, the entire Cuizhu Mountain changed immediately, the green was getting stronger and stronger every day, and the whole place was full of vigor.

After all the ice on the river melted, Gu Shuixiu brought four chickens and four ducks, and asked Dong Shan to punt her in the boat, and went to the valley. Half of these chickens and ducks were given to Zuojia and half to Qin. Family.

Gu Shuixiu just stepped into the valley, and before she entered the village, she heard Uncle Qin talking with others. It seemed that the two were a little far apart. Reverberating, Gu Shuixiu burst into laughter, and quickened her pace to enter Zhuangzi.

Zhuangzi's door is always open during the day, and only closes when night falls or when all the men from the two families go out.

Gu Shuixiu knocked on the door of Zuo's house with familiarity. Dong Yunmei happened to be getting food in the kitchen. When she heard Gu Shuixiu's voice, she hurried over to open the door for her. She looked down and saw what Gu Shuixiu was holding. Dong Yunmei was taken aback, "Shuixiu, you are..."

Gu Shuixiu graciously handed over two chickens and two ducks to Dong Yunmei, "I know you also want to raise some chickens and ducks, this time I brought a pair of chickens and ducks for each of you two from home, It's up to you to keep it to eat or raise it. I mainly want to go to Yueyi this time and tell her about enlightenment for the child. It just so happens that you have a bottom line. Come with me later and tell her for me. a few words."

Dong Yunmei is even more puzzled now. With Gu Shuixiu's face, it is impossible for Liu Yueyi not to agree. What do you want her to do? She didn't think she was more handsome than Gu Shuixiu.

Seeing Dong Yunmei's puzzled expression, Gu Shuixiu sighed deeply: "It's not my cousin, to tell you the truth, my mother and aunt have privately arranged the marriage of the two children, this book It's nothing, but my cousin did something that shouldn't be done, I discussed it with my mother, it's better to hide it from my aunt, so I'll come to you for support."

"So that's what happened, but what did your cousin do to ask you to come forward and tell your aunt?" Dong Yunmei was curious, she was very impressed by Gu Shuixiu's cousin, that girl He looked like he was only eight or nine years old. He was small, diligent in work, and a little timid.

Seeing Dong Yunmei's expression of disapproval, Gu Shuixiu had no choice but to tell things one by one, only to see Dong Yunmei's expression from dismay to shock to anger, and finally sighed: "I was originally a child, From a poor peasant girl to a shopkeeper, she has endured hardships and is not very determined, and the heart of receiving so much money every day will float."

Dong Yunmei is more of a pity, if Zhao Nizi did not change her temperament, she would be a good and diligent wife candidate. I'm afraid that once the Qin family knows what Zhao Nizi has done, the marriage will be ruined.

"My mother was very angry about this, and my father even said that if Zhao Nizi doesn't study well, she will be sent back to Zhaojia Village. Now who else in Zhaojia Village will raise her, my father will After such a fright, she has promised to make corrections, but I have a lump in my heart, and it is impossible to help her in the future."

Gu Shuixiu has a temperament that can't rub the sand in her eyes. Don't look at her easy to talk, and her temperament is gentle. Strictly speaking, Dong Chenghu can't control her stubborn temper.

Dong Yunmei nodded, Gu Shuixiu was her sister-in-law after all, so she naturally turned towards Gu Shuixiu. The two packed up and left Zuo's house immediately. On the way to Qin's house, Gu Shuixiu saw four figures busy not far away. It should be Zuo Qingsong, and that piece of land belongs to the Zuo family.

Although the other three were far apart, they were closer to Gu Shuixiu. It was the Qin family and their son. They also saw Gu Shuixiu and Dong Yunmei, smiled and beckoned to her to continue their work.

Gu Shuixiu greeted them, looked at the situation of the fields, slowed down and waited for Dong Yunmei to catch up before smiling lightly: "This year, is the eldest brother Zuo busy in your family alone? Yes? Don't want our family to call some people to help?"

Dong Yunmei shook her head and looked at Zuo Qingsong in the distance, with a very calm expression, "Most of the people who have opened a shop in your family have gone out, and you have a lot of fields, so there is only one left. Hu and Dong Shan and Dong Xiao are too busy at all, I don’t dare to borrow someone from you, besides, our family doesn’t have much land, so Qingsong can do it all by himself.”

When he gets married, the couple will move in.

Hao obviously knew from the movement just now that Gu Shuixiu was coming, and let them enter the room with a smile on her face, with a dustpan in her hand from time to time.

As soon as she saw what Hao's Gu Shuixiu wanted to say, she suddenly didn't know how to say it. She followed Hao's wishes and entered the main room. Liu Yueyi was holding the child in the main room and humming a little tune to coax the child to sleep. This tune doesn't sound like they are from the south, but rather a dialect from a certain place. I think it should be the dialect of Liu Yueyi's hometown.

Liu Yueyi saw Gu Shuixiu and Dong Yunmei entering the room, smiled and gently carried the child into the inner room before coming out to entertain guests.

When the child was carried into the house, Mrs. Hao laughed heartily: "Now this kid is the youngest ancestor of our family, and I wouldn't dare to speak loudly without him."

Hao's mouth was complaining, but the doting in her eyes could not be hidden.
