General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

“This is...” Su Xiaoxiao looked at the green vegetables and asked.

Old Li said, “The smell of this is a little strong. Many people aren’t used to it.”

Wasn’t this coriander from her previous life?

Coriander was a good thing. It contained rich vitamins, trace elements, and many minerals. It could be used to alleviate rashes and reduce digestion. It was very suitable for eating in winter.

Su Xiaoxiao picked some coriander and filled Old Li’s basket.

She went out to look at the land and did not bring anything.

When Madam Qian saw Fat Lass Su pick so many vegetables, her face turned green with pain.

Old Li said to Su Xiaoxiao, “You don’t sell vegetables. You only have a few people to eat at home. Actually, you don’t need so much land. Half an acre is enough. The remaining acre and a half can be used to grow some food.”

Su Xiaoxiao listened to Old Li.

She naturally wouldn’t waste any land. However, compared to food, she wanted to plant sugarcane more.

Sugar cane could be used to make sugar. The cost of making pancakes could be reduced greatly, and the profit margin would be greater.

As for selling candy, she had no intention of doing that for the time being.

In ancient times, sugar and salt were rare items. Behind them was a huge business chain. Once she disturbed the sugar market with a low price, she would definitely become a target.

She wouldn’t do that until she was strong enough.

“Grandpa Li, Auntie Qian, I’ll go back first.”

“Go,” Old Li said.

Madam Qian secretly rolled her eyes.

Amused, Su Xiaoxiao left the vegetable field with the basket.

She really wasn’t angry.

When they reached home, Su Xiaoxiao took out the vegetables and returned the basket to Old Li and his wife.

The basket was heavy and covered with a clean cotton cloth.

After she left, Madam Qian opened it and saw six pancakes and two pieces of meat!

Madam Qian gasped!

–

Su Cheng finished making the walking stick and called Wei Ting over to test it in the backyard.

Father Su was really good to his son-in-law. It was anyone’s guess if Daddy Su would vomit blood the day he left.

Su Ergou went to the village entrance to fetch water.

The three little ones did not take an afternoon nap. They climbed out of bed and went next door.

They came to the window of the second room.

Niu Dan did not eat sugar eggs today. His grandfather, Liu Shan, went to the back village for a meal yesterday and brought him half a bowl of peanuts and a piece of candy.

He ate a peanut and licked the candy.

“Do you know what this is?”

He tempted the three little ones.

“Peanuts!” He raised the half-licked candy bar again. “Candy!”

“I’m not giving it to you! You’ll die of hunger! Go ahead!”

The three little ones blinked and walked away.

“Hmph!” Niu Dan snorted and continued to lick the candy.

Suddenly, the three little ones returned.

Everyone had a string of shiny candied hawthorns in their hands.

Seeing the candied hawthorn, Niu Dan’s eyes widened!

The three little ones began to lick the candied hawthorn. After licking for a while, they were not satisfied and started to gnaw with their little teeth.

Niu Dan immediately felt that the candy in his hand was no longer fragrant!

After the three of them had enough of the candied haws, they went home and took a bowl of fried sesame balls and fried oil pastry. They ate one at a time before Niu Dan cried from hunger!

Su Xiaoxiao sat behind the kitchen and sharpened her knife. Big Wu’s stern voice came from the kitchen next door.

“Can’t you eat enough yourself? You gp to your parents’ house every other day to pass them things from our family! Is this how you perform your duty as a wife? You can’t even give birth to a child! You’re all money-losing goods!”

“Eat, eat, eat! All you think about is eating!”

In the beginning, she was scolding Little Wu. In the end, she was probably scolding Little Wu’s two daughters.

Her two daughters were crying from the scolding.

“Cry, cry, cry! Are you mourning?” Big Wu raised her hand impatiently and slapped her two granddaughters a few times.

Little Wu blocked it with her body and suffered a few blows.

Niu Dan in the front room also cried. It was a real mourning level.

Niu Dan’s expression changed. “What’s wrong?”

Big Wu couldn’t be bothered to teach Little Wu and her daughters a lesson. She hurriedly went to the front room to coax her precious grandson.

Su Xiaoxiao continued to sharpen her knife.

About half an hour later, Little Wu opened the back door of the kitchen, planning to come out for some air.

She caught a glimpse of Su Xiaoxiao sharpening her knife in the snow.

Perhaps she was worried that Su Xiaoxiao would hear the commotion just now, she felt a little awkward.

Su Xiaoxiao placed a few catties of pork ribs and some vegetables that she had just picked from the ground.

Little Wu walked forward silently and squatted down to help Su Xiaoxiao pick vegetables.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t ask what had happened to Little Wu, nor did she reject her help. However, after Little Wu finished picking the vegetables and washing her ribs, she went into the house and gave her 20 copper coins.

Little Wu was stunned.

“You seem to need this more than food.”

Little Wu’s eyes turned hot.

Her mother was sick. She wanted to take a few eggs back to visit her mother, but she was discovered by her mother-in-law, Big Wu, and was scolded.

She had been like this for so many years and was already numb to it. However, for some reason, the moment Su Xiaoxiao handed her the copper coins, an indescribable grievance surged in her heart.

She whispered, “I don’t go to my parents’ house every other day to pass them things.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I know.”

Little Wu’s tears fell.

The grievances that had accumulated for many years fermented in Su Xiaoxiao’s trust until they completely erupted.

—

The three little ones had peed too much last night and wet two mattresses. Coupled with the fact that it was snowing and there was no sun, the mattresses were still wet.

Tonight, Su Ergou could only sleep with Daddy Su.

The three little ones got their wish and got their third free sleep with Su Xiaoxiao.

The three little ones waved goodbye to their father and carried the pillow to Su Xiaoxiao’s house.

Su Xiaoxiao was about to rest when Su Ergou asked at the door, “Sister, are you asleep?”

“No, come in,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Su Ergou was here to ask about tomorrow’s business. “Sister, are we going to set up a stall in Jin Ji or the academy?”

Su Xiaoxiao thought seriously and said, “Jin Ji.”

Su Ergou: “Ah.”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled at him. “You want to go to the academy?”

Su Ergou said, “There are many students in the academy. They will definitely sell more than at the entrance of Jin Ji!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “That’s not necessarily true.”

Jin Ji was surrounded by high-quality customers. They could afford it and it would save the siblings time.

Su Ergou continued, “Then are we giving up on the academy’s business?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “No, it’s just that the sales model has to change.”

Thanks to her CEO mother in her previous life, she still had some business ideals in her mind.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Su Ergou, “It’s late. Go to sleep.”

Su Ergou nodded. “Okay, remember to wake me up tomorrow.”

Su Xiaoxiao was amused. “I will.”

Why did she feel that her silly brother was more enthusiastic about selling pancakes than extorting money?

Su Ergou and the others went out and another head popped in. “Sister, you can make a kind of pancake called Ergou pancake in the future!”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.
