Qin Sanniu had been gone to the salt lake for half a month and had not returned once.
He could actually come and go from the salt lake freely. Qin Mu and the others would still go there for lunch when they set up their stalls.
But now that they weren't setting up stalls, the kid hadn't even thought about coming home.
Aunt Qin Er worried every day. Uncle Qin Lin found a stool leg and asked him to go to the salt lake to take a look. Su Dan Novel Network.
The news he got back was that Sanniu said he would only come back after he finished the box in his hands, giving a date of the day after tomorrow.
Aunt Qin Er longed for her son's return, wishing time would pass faster. She often asked Qin Sanniu when he would return.
Qin Junyao sat in the room for a while, and no one else came. She lay on the kang and began to plant corn in her space.
The sun was very strong outside now. Qin Mu was afraid she would look like a black and white ghost at her wedding, so she didn't let her go out freely.
Qin Xiaoyu rolled her eyes a lot because of this.
Logically, other women about to be married would stay at home for a year to whiten their skin. But they would be doing needlework at home, preparing their wedding dresses, shoes, and so on.
All Qin Junyao could do was lie on the kang and "sleep."
The mist around her space had thinned out. It seemed that with more new plants, it could expand again.
Unfortunately, Zhao Liangcai couldn't come back for the time being, so Qin Junyao couldn't go to the deep mountains.
She had looked for the stool leg. The stool leg dared not take her, only saying that the problem with the salt lake would be solved soon and asked Qin Junyao to wait for Zhao Liangcai with peace of mind.
Qin Junyao had no choice but to buy two more medicine cabinets and place them in the courtyard of her space. She saved seeds from all the plants in her space and put them in the cabinets.
Then, she removed them all to plant corn.
Now, only the area near the ginseng in the space was left empty for planting some vegetables.
Qin Junyao's consciousness pushed the cart in her space to the cornfield.
This cart was custom-made in Yan County. It had a railing, and each cart was a large open box, convenient for putting things inside.
She held a small bamboo strip to peel the leaves off the corn and threw the corn cobs into the cart. Then, she used a sickle to cut down the corn stalks.
The corn stalks were automatically recycled by the soil in the space. Qin Junyao casually planted another corn in the original spot.
This process was the fastest way she could think of to plant and harvest grain.
Qin Junyao did not shell the harvested corn cobs. She intended to sell these to Zhao Liangcai.
Without asking, she knew Zhao Liangcai was short on grain.
"Sister Qin, Sister Qin, why are you sleeping again?"
"Sister Qin is up~~," Fuzi rushed into Qin Junyao's room as soon as he got home from school, waking his Sister Qin.
"Fuzi is back. Were you good at school?" Qin Junyao opened her eyes and sat up, asking Fuzi, who was carrying a small backpack.
The backpack Fuzi was wearing was made by Qin Mu with scissors and needle and thread, pieced together with scrap cloth according to Qin Junyao's description. It looked very nice.
The little guy loved it and wore it to and from school every day.
"I was very good. Sister Qin, are you pregnant? You sleep so much?" Fuzi climbed onto the kang and asked Qin Junyao.
Qin Junyao felt a rumble of thunder. She reached out and tugged Fuzi's chubby little face, "Who did you learn this from? Every day you grimace when you recite an article, but you know so much useless stuff."
"Wuwu~" Fuzi raised his hand to remove the hand that was pulling his face.
"Hou Liang said his second sister-in-law just eats and sleeps now, and sleeps and eats. His mother said his second sister-in-law has a baby in her belly. You are also eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating."
"And how is this useless?" Fuzi puffed out his small chest. "My brother is always not at home. I have to watch him, um, take care of you."
Fuzi moved closer to Qin Junyao and asked again, "Sister Qin, do you have a baby?"
His expression was a bit mischievous, resembling Zhao Liangcai's grinning look.
Qin Junyao was amused by Fuzi and reached out to pinch his face again.
"No, you won't have a baby until you're married. When did your brother ask you to watch me?"
Fuzi quickly climbed off the kang, waving and shaking his head repeatedly. "No, no, it's to take care of you, to take care of you."
As he spoke, he backed away towards the door. "Mr. Zheng asked me to practice calligraphy, and I haven't practiced yet." He then turned and ran out of the room, heading straight for the yard.
He wasn't practicing calligraphy at all; he was going out to play.
Fuzi now slept in the same room as Qin Daniu and the others.
Since he had to stay at the Qin family's for a while, and Qin Xiaoyu didn't want to sleep in Qin Fu and Qin Mu's room, Fuzi had to sleep on the same kang as Daniu and the others.
