A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Three years later, Songzi Village is very lively. The soy sauce workshop has been standing here for more than two years. In the large open space next to the threshing floor, there are hundreds of half-person-high vats containing soy sauce.

Wearing oversized bamboo hats on the soy sauce vat, these hats are very thick, and there is also a layer of thick oil paper tied around the outside of the hats, which is used to keep out rain, frost and snow.

More than two years ago, Gu Jinan went to Fucheng and bought three more servants. There were fifteen people named Xiong, Ma, and Mei. These three families specialized in making soy sauce.

However, Gu Jinli also transferred Xiangzi to Songzi Village as a steward, specifically in charge of these three families.

Xiangzi is Xiaoji’s older brother. He is very lucky. Just by looking at his name, you can tell that he is a family member.

Xiangzi was born in a bodyguard agency and knew how to box and kick. In the past three years, he was dragged by Kan Liu to practice every day. From time to time, he was thrown into the Dafeng Mountains by Gu Jinli to fend for himself. He was already very capable. Not only was he loyal to the Gu family, but he could also see it. Live with these three families and keep the soy sauce recipe.

At this moment, Xiangzi was greeting the three families: "Heavy rain is coming, hurry up and follow me to the threshing floor to collect grain!"

"coming!"

The three families ran to the threshing floor with sacks, brooms, and large oil paper.

But the heavy rain came too quickly. After a few thunders of autumn thunder, the heavy rain started falling.

Gu Jinli, Xiaoji, and Mi Laoweng were already at the threshing floor. Seeing the heavy rain, they hurriedly shouted to Xiangzi and others: "Sweep the grains together quickly, cover them with oil paper, press them with stones, and go back to hide from the rain." "

Xiangzi and the others immediately followed the instructions. After a dozen people swept the grain together with brooms, they immediately covered it with oil paper and pressed it with stones.

But the threshing floor is too big, and there is so much grain for the autumn harvest that it is impossible to sweep it all in a short while.

"Little boss, you go back to take shelter from the rain first." Xiao Ji said to Gu Jinli, the broom in his hand kept moving, and after roughly sweeping the rice into a pile, he and Gu Jinli spread out the large oil paper and swept it into squares. The heap of grain is covered and then weighed down with stones.

Gu Jinli said: "Stop talking nonsense and cover the rice quickly, otherwise it will dry out in vain, and when it sprouts, the food will be completely destroyed."

Although she escaped famine, she has been recuperating her health in the past few years and thinks that her body can withstand it. It's just an autumn rain, so it's fine.

Xiaoji knew Xiaodong's temper and saw that she was unwilling to go back, so he could only continue to sweep the rice and compete with the heavy rain for time.

Mrs. Mi and Mr. Mi did not go back to take shelter from the rain. The two old men were very strong. They had not looked old in the past three years, but they were much energetic.

The guys worked for more than a quarter of an hour and finally covered all the rice, but half of the rice was wet.

"Hurry up and wait for the rain to stop before drying the rice." Gu Jinli shouted to them and took Xiaoji to the yard where the master lived.

Zhuangzi is big and the courtyard is a bit far away. It took the two of them running for half a quarter of an hour to get there.

Gu Jinli suddenly wanted to scold his mother. It's not a good place to be in a big place. He would be killed if he ran away.

Mr. and Mrs. Mi live relatively close to each other. They arrived after a short run. Mrs. Mi even shouted to Gu Jinli, "Don't worry about us, little boss. Run quickly. Change your wet clothes when you get back to the house. Don't catch a cold!"

"Got it!" Gu Jinli responded and continued running, his shoes were stained by the mud and water. He finally reached the main courtyard and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "God, it rains so heavily in autumn, are you embarrassed? "

It's not summer.

Xiaoji said: "My dear boss, you can't say that to God. He will not bless you when he gets angry."

He quickly clasped his hands together and apologized to God for Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli: "..."

Miss Xiao Ji, is it really okay that you like to say goodbye so much at such a young age?

"After you've finished praying, come in and change your clothes." Gu Jinli immediately took off his dirty shoes and entered the wing on the right side of the main courtyard with bare feet.

Sometimes Zhuangzi is too busy with work and needs to stay overnight, so she lives in this right wing.

The Zou family was very spacious, with one wing being turned into an outer room, an inner room, and a servant's room, so it was very spacious for her and Xiao Ji to live here.

Gu Jinli went back to the inner room, quickly changed out of his wet clothes and put on clean clothes, but his hair was more difficult to do.

The ancients were not allowed to cut hair, so she wanted to do it secretly, but Mrs. Cui saw it and cried a lot, so she could only keep her hair long. Now it takes two-quarters of an hour to untie it and dry it off.

Then……

Ah sneeze!

She sneezed twice in response.

"Xiao Dong, are you okay?" Xiao Ji came over with a dry cotton towel to wipe her hair: "Xiao Dong also said that she is in great health. You see, you even sneezed, but the slave did not sneeze."

Don't brag next time.

Gu Jinli said: "My aunt is coming soon. My body's resistance has become weak. It's normal for me to sneeze when I get caught in the rain."

Ever since Gu Jinli had her menstrual period last year, Xiao Ji already knew what her aunt was and knew some of Gu Jinli's rules. She asked, "Does the little boss need to take medicine?"

It's about medicine for treating wind and cold.

Gu Jinli shook his head: "I won't eat it. It's not good to eat. Let's drink some ginger tea."

"Okay, I'll help you cook it later."

Gu Jinli: "Remember to put sugar in it. If you don't put sugar in it, it will be too strong and you won't be able to drink it."

Xiao Ji is very picky and does not add sugar when making ginger tea. She has to tell her before adding it every time.

"I know, my little boss is so squeamish. Brother Cheng doesn't even add sugar to his ginger tea."

Gu Jinli was dissatisfied and retorted: "He was told by his elder brother that men don't like sweets, so he didn't let it go. He used to do it very well."

He added: "Also, he was tricked by the eldest brother again. The eldest brother's favorite dish is sweet and sour pork. It's sour and sweet."

Xiao Ji laughed when he heard this: "I heard Brother An tell Brother Cheng that sweet and sour food is not considered sweet."

Brother Cheng listened to Brother An very much, and then happily believed in his elder brother.

However, Brother Cheng was very smart, and he probably knew that his elder brother's statement was a lie, but he trusted An Geer and felt that what An Geer said was right, so he did not expose his elder brother.

After drinking some tea, Xiao Ji finally dried Gu Jinli's hair and said, "Slave, go and boil some water. The young master will be able to take a bath and wash your hair in a while."

Xiao Ji went to the kitchen next to the main courtyard. This kitchen was used by the main family. There was a well and water was very convenient.

Gu Jinli was looking at the account book in the room, calculating how much money he had earned this month. The more he looked at it, the happier he became. He felt very comfortable. Life is good when you have money.

But it's not enough. The money must continue to be used to buy Zhuangzi and bury money.

Ever since he escaped the famine, Gu Jinli had no hope for Dachu, thinking that it would end sooner or later. Therefore, in the past three years, Mutong and Feng Jin traveled several times in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and used the money they earned to buy some villages along the Chi Road, and then buried money in the villages to prepare for emergencies.

The village she bought does not have to be large, but it must be close to official roads, and there must be nearby official roads in the southeast, northwest, and so on, so the investment is huge.

"My dear boss, the water is boiled. Drink the ginger tea first and then take a shower." Xiao Ji brought the ginger tea in and handed it to Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli blew it, and after it cooled down a bit, he drank it in large gulps and walked around the corridor to a room behind the yard.

This place is specially used for bathing. It is a big place and very clean.

Xiao Ji brought the hot water in, poured it into the big wooden basin, and asked, "Xiao Boss, are we going back tomorrow afternoon?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "Well, Brother Qin will go home tomorrow and pick me up when passing by Songzi Village."
