Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family

Chapter 251 Souvenirs

"Slow down, slow down! Look carefully at your feet!"

Aunt Ma shouted repeatedly.

Butcher Xu was afraid that Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning would trip over the threshold while running too fast, so he cursed angrily: "You young wives just can't keep your temper! Don't always think that you are little girls, you are the mother of the child!" "

Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning were trained not to dare to reply, so they stretched their necks to wait for the arrival of the carriage.

Huo Yunchao was concerned about the growth of the sweet potato vines and deliberately walked around the village before entering. Dada's horse hooves attracted the attention of the villagers. A swarm of swarms came forward and asked all kinds of questions:

"Yun Chao, you are finally back!"

"What did the prefect say? Did you get any rewards?"

"The yield of sweet potatoes is so high, can you plant some sweet potatoes for me?"

……

The villagers each had their own positions and demands, and took the opportunity to make a bunch of reasonable and unreasonable demands to Huo Yunchao.

If Huo Yunchao agrees, that will naturally be the best, and he will get a lot of advantages for nothing.

It doesn't matter if Huo Yunchao doesn't agree. They are just talking and won't lose much.

As an agricultural student, Huo Yunchao has been dealing with villagers in the countryside all year round. He knows very well what these people think, so he speaks flawlessly and refuses to agree to anyone's request!

Huo Tianxiang led the Huo clan to meet Huo Yunchao and Zheng Shaoxuan. With a large number of people, they successfully broke through the encirclement of the villagers and were able to drive the carriage back to the door of Xu's house.

Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning were looking forward to it, but Butcher Xu and Aunt Ma ordered them to wait at the door of their home and were not allowed to go to the entrance of the village to pick them up.

Huo Yunchao jumped off the carriage and ran while shouting: "Sister Xiaocao, Ning Niang, my brother-in-law and I are back safely!"

Zheng Shaoxuan is not as straightforward as Huo Yunchao

Take off, after all, he is the master of Huo Academy, and he must have a certain idol baggage, otherwise how can he maintain his role as a role model?

Xu Ning walked a few steps quickly and reached out to hold Huo Yunchao: "Ms. sir, why do you look so thin?"

Huo Yun turned around and said with a smile: "Huh? Is there any? No, I've only been away for five days. Apart from not sleeping well, it's good to eat, drink and have fun!"

Xu Ning was amused by her husband's reaction: "My husband, everyone is watching."

Huo Yunchao lowered his voice and said, "Just watch it. I didn't do anything in public, see or hear no evil."

Xu Ning gave him an angry look and noticed four unfamiliar faces from the corner of her eye. She couldn't help but asked curiously: "Mr. sir, who are those four people?"

"Oh," Huo Yunchao finally remembered to introduce the situation to Xu Ning: "Madam, my brother-in-law and I went to Yahang and bought two servants with death certificates. The female will be responsible for taking care of you and doing housework, and the male will work in the fields with me. I'm going out to do errands. If I don't go out, I'll let him help Father Xu."

Xu Ning's eyes widened in surprise: "Slave, slave?"

Huo Yunchao said something that Xu Ning could not refute: "Yes! Ning Niang, our family is short of manpower, and I don't like strangers coming in and out of the house. Aunt Ma has to take care of her own family. Let's try to cause as little trouble to Aunt Ma as possible. My brother-in-law and I All in all, it will be more than ten years before our children grow up, so we can simply go to Yahang and buy slaves back. In this way, our family has two more helpers, and they can leave Yahang. We have another If we don’t treat them seriously, they will only live better in our home than before.”

When he originally proposed to buy slaves, he actually had some doubts in his heart.

, after all, he grew up under the red flag. "Rise up, people who don't want to be slaves" is like a brand that is deeply imprinted on his soul.

It wasn't until Huo Yunchao saw how terrible the living conditions of the slaves were in the tooth shop that he crossed over and bought a couple.

Xu Ning subconsciously touched his flat belly and smiled very beautifully at Huo Yunchao: "Ms. sir, are you hungry? Can I make you some sugar water?"

"Okay." Huo Yunchao led Xu Ning to Butcher Xu and Madam Ma, exchanged a few words with them, and told Butcher Xu about buying two slaves: "Dad Xu, I bought two slaves. It’s you who make the decision, please make arrangements.”

Butcher Xu's pupils shrank. When he asked clearly whether he had bought a couple, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go back to the house and rest."

Lin Xiaocao on the other side was shocked when she saw Wu Song and the servant girl; "Ms., I, our family doesn't have much work..."

Zheng Shao I spent a lot of time reading and writing articles. As for this servant girl, I bought it specially to take care of you and the child. Mother passed away too early, and I am worried about you and the child, so I can't study with peace of mind."

Lin Xiaocao couldn't find any reason to object. She looked at Huo Yunchao and Xu Ning who were entering the house hand in hand, and silently swallowed back what she wanted to ask: "Mr. sir, let's talk about it when we go home."

Zheng Shaoxuan's courtesy was thorough: "Xiaocao, wait until I say goodbye to your godfather before leaving."

Butcher Xu asked Zheng Shaoxuan several questions and saw that he was in high spirits.

Looking helpless, she urged him: "Shaoxuan, please go home and rest quickly. Xiaocao is worried about your safety and hasn't slept well these past few days. Have you seen the black and blue under her eyes?"

Zheng Shaoxuan said no more words, said goodbye to Butcher Xu, and walked side by side with Lin Xiaocao. Wu Song drove the carriage and followed behind with his maid.

The first thing Huo Yunchao did when he entered the house was to take off his dusty coat and shoes. He only wore his inner coat and pulled on his straw slippers.

Xu Ning stared at Huo Yunchao without blinking, fearing that he would catch a cold, "Mr. sir, could you please put on some clothes?"

"Ning Niang, the magistrate rewarded us with one hundred taels of silver notes, and the county magistrate gave us another twenty taels of silver, so that we have money to buy slaves."

Huo Yunchao took the piece of clothing and smelled the faint fragrance. He guessed that Xu Ning had trouble sleeping at night and had to hold his clothes to fall asleep.

Xu Ning nodded, poured a cup of sugar water and handed it to Huo Yunchao: "Mr., moisten your throat. You can speak slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

Huo Yun drank the sugar water towards Yi Gulu, stood up and took out the gift he carefully selected, "Here, open it and see if you like it."

Xu Ning asked curiously: "Ms. sir, what is this?"

"Souvenir."

Huo Yunchao said it calmly, but in fact his heartbeat accelerated, anxiously waiting for Xu Ning's reaction.

"Silver hairpin! The carved flowers are so beautiful!"

Xu Ning was filled with surprises: "Ms. sir, you, how did you... me, me."

Huo Yunchao asked pitifully: "Madam, do you blame me for spending money randomly?"

Xu Ning shook his head, his eyes reflected the appearance of the silver hairpin, and he exuded joy: "No. My husband, thank you for giving me such a beautiful silver hairpin. I am so happy."

Love it! "

"Really? That's great! Here, I have a little gift."

Huo Yunchao took out three wooden combs, each with different patterns and styles, which are easy to identify: "I picked this wooden comb specially for you, and the other one is for Father Xu. I am going to take the remaining wooden comb." Give it to my father, if he wants to give it to my stepmother, I have no problem with it."
