Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

The lieutenant asked in surprise, "General, this is?"

Tang Jinghong raised his head, glanced at everyone with a steady gaze, and said slowly, "The boss gave it to me alone, so it's cheaper for you."

The deputy general said happily, "General, do you know the boss?"

Tang Jinghong raised his voice, "Why?"

The deputy general hesitated for a moment, and suggested, "General, there are so many people in the barracks, why don't you order more ice cream?"

"This general also has this intention." Tang Jinghong lifted his robe and sat on a chair, "How much do you think is appropriate to order?"

The lieutenant pondered slightly, "General, let's order 10,000. Battalion 1 to Battalion 5 take turns to eat every day. It will be fine when the summer is over."

Tang Jinghong glanced at the others and remained silent, "Since there is no objection, then it's settled." He stretched out his index finger and pointed to the small box, "Each person can take two yuan."

The deputy general felt that Tang Jinghong was stingy, "General, there are so many, just give us two yuan?"

Tang Jinghong's majestic voice sounded, "Are there too many?"

"Not much, not much." The deputy general was so frightened that he quickly compromised, otherwise he would not get two yuan, "Two yuan is two yuan, thank you general."

After taking the sorbet, the lieutenants went to cool off.

Tang Jinghong took out one of each kind of ice cream, a total of three pieces, the rest remained unchanged, locked the small box, and ordered, "Come here."

The soldier entered in response, "General."

Tang Jinghong stroked the surface of the box lightly with his fingers, and said, "Send this box to General Fan's mansion quickly, and remember to bring the box back."

The soldier cupped his fists, "Yes, General."

Not to mention that after General Fan received the sorbet, he immediately sent some to his daughter in the palace. Time passed by and it was already evening.

The people who worked at Chu Qingzhi's house got off work one by one, and walked home one after another, with joyful expressions on their faces.

Working means earning money, and Chu Qingzhi is generous. Each person's wages are one yuan a day, which means they can earn three taels a month.

In normal times, they only earn three taels a year.

Li Qingyu and Grandma Chu are now in charge of cooking. The two of them considered that their family is getting better and better, so they are not stingy, and the food is very good.

After the meal, the whole family gathered in the main room...to count the money.

Shen Ruyue took out the ledger, opened it, cleared her throat, and said, "I put all the money from selling ice cream during this period into the ledger, and I'll tell everyone one by one."

"On the first day, I sold ice cream for ten taels of silver, and I spent two cents."

"The next day I sold ice cream for ten taels of silver, and spent one tael."

"The third day..."

"Today all the 35,000 ice creams were sold. I'll see the detailed account after a while. I said a total of 150 taels of income. In addition, I spent 30 taels of silver to buy sugar."

"All the money now adds up to a total of one hundred and fifty taels."

All the money was with Li Qingyu, Shen Ruyue didn't touch the money, and only kept accounts.

Chu Qingzhi took out the ten taels of silver that Tang Jinghong gave her and the ten taels of silver that Xu Wanrong gave her, "Ruyue, add this and record it as my medical income."

After Shen Ruyue recorded the account, Chu Qingzhi took out the one hundred taels of silver note that Rong Yufan compensated her, and explained the origin of the silver note, "This is recorded as compensation."

Everyone stared at Chu Qingzhi dumbfounded, this, this, this, is too powerful, and then showed admiration.

Shen Ruyue wrote down the accounts one by one. Originally, she thought that Qingzhi's family was poor, but she didn't expect her to be a little rich. "Now the family's silver is two hundred and seventy taels."

Everyone's eyes are so bright, like the sun in the sky, especially Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu, they have never seen so much money at once in their life, and now their Chu family is prosperous.

Grandma Chu pinched Grandpa Chu's thigh, "Be more careful in the future, and don't talk about family affairs."

While rubbing his legs, Grandpa Chu replied repeatedly, "I know, I know, you old lady, you are too hard on yourself."

Grandma Chu threatened, "If you dare to go out and talk nonsense again, I will attack harder."

Grandpa Chu quickly assured, "I will definitely not say anything."

Everyone smiled. After Grandpa Chu told Chu Qi about making ice at home last time, he regretted it for a long time, and now he is relieved.

Shen Ruyue gave Chu Qingzhi the plan she had written for building a workshop, "Qingzhi, I have drawn up the plan you asked me to draw up, and I even drew a brief drawing, take a look."

What a capable girl Chu Qingzhi took the plan and didn't rush to read it.

She glanced at everyone and said, "Now that the family has money, grandparents, parents, let's discuss about building a house. Everyone, tell me, what kind of house do you want to live in?"

The brightness of everyone's eyes reached a peak in an instant, building a house, what they longed for could be realized immediately, just like a dream, no, it is not more real than a dream.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Chu Qingzhi called the roll call, "Mother, tell me, everyone listens to you."

Li Qingyu pinched the corner of her clothes nervously and excitedly, "That mother just said it, listen to it, if you think it's not good, we'll change it."

Everyone nods.

Li Qingyu pondered for a while, "I want to build Xuhua and Chu San's houses separately. They will soon marry a wife. It will be more convenient. Chu Qi and Chu Jiu are still young, so we will build it in a few years, and we will build another one for the others." The big one, by the way, the three houses must be next to each other."

After listening to it, everyone felt that the idea was not bad, and did not raise any objections.

Grandpa Chu said, "We can't build so many houses in this location."

Chu Rong said, "To the east of the village, there is a piece of wasteland. Let's buy it."

Chu Xuhua frowned, and said with some concern, "Father, it takes a lot of silver to buy it."

Chu Rong had some foresight, "We just need to earn more. The house is a big deal, so we must build it well. If you buy that piece of wasteland, your two little brothers will be able to accommodate it in the future."

Chu Xuhua nodded, "Father is right."

Chu Qingzhi focused on two things, she read the plan while listening to everyone talking, after listening to them, she asked, "Then do you have a favorite courtyard style?"

Chu Xuhua said it very simply, "Just a few houses and a small yard."

Chu Qingzhi thought about the level of architecture in this era. In fact, small western-style buildings can be built, "Big brother, third brother, think about it more, don't worry."

She turned to look at Chu Rong and Li Qingyu, "Father and mother, let me design the house we live in, okay?"

Chu Rong and Li Qingyu said in succession, "Of course, we will listen to you."

Shen Ruyue's beautiful eyes were full of curiosity, "Qing Zhi, what good idea do you have?"

Chu Qingzhi picked up the pen, turned the paper over, and drew the house design. Her hand holding the pen was very steady. Everyone looked at her and couldn't help but hold their breath.

A few younger ones went to the table to watch Chu Qingzhi make a painting.

What Chu Qingzhi painted was a small two-story western-style building with a villa style. Most of the ancient buildings used wood as the building material, and the small western-style building built will be more beautiful.

Chu Liu admired, "Fifth Sister, this house is so beautiful."

Chu Qingzhi smiled, "It will be more beautiful when it is built, and you will have separate rooms in the future."

There are many children in the family, and two of them sleep together and have separate rooms, unless they are married.

Chu Qi looked at Chu Qingzhi with bright eyes, "Fifth Sister, since you came home, our family is getting better and better."

"We work together and the future will be better."

"Um."

Chu Qingzhi suddenly stopped writing, looked at the four young children in the family, "Chu Liu, Chu Qi, is there anything you want to do?"

The two girls, Chu Liu and Chu Ba, did not speak. One was thirteen years old and the other was eight years old. One was sensible and the other was not so sensible.

It was nine-year-old Chu Qi and seven-year-old Chu Jiu who spoke, "Sister, we want to study and take the number one prize."

"Your ambitions are not small, but since you want to study, my sister will send you to study." Chu Qingzhi raised her head and asked everyone, "Is there a good academy near the county?"

Shen Ruyue knew, "There is an academy that has produced three champions, called Yunfei Academy, it is also a hundred-year-old academy, it is said that it was opened by a Master Jijiu from the Imperial College who retired from his old age and returned to his hometown."

Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment, "If you have a good background and a good teacher, you can go and have a look."

Shen Ruyue nodded, "Qingzhi, I know where it is, I'll take you there."

Chu Qingzhi said, "I'll go to the academy after I finish drawing the drawings. By the way, parents, do you know the people who built the house?"

Chu Rong's gaze landed on the small western-style building painted by Chu Qingzhi, "Qingzhi, to build an ordinary house, the villagers can do it, but yours is too complicated, they can't build it well."

Shen Ruyue raised her head, "Qing Zhi, I know a man who is very talented in building houses, can you let him try?"

"Of course." Chu Qingzhi was a little worried, "But are you sure he can build it?"

Shen Ruyue said loudly, "I promise."

"Okay, I'll stop by and meet him later." Chu Qingzhi turned her head and asked Chu Liu and Chu Ba, "Have you made up your mind?"

Chu Liu and Chu Ba shook their heads together.

Chu Qingzhi thought, she should find a job for the girl in the family to support herself, so that no matter what happened in the future, she would not have a bad life.

She looked at Chu Ba and asked, "Do you like making clothes like Second Sister?"

Chu Liu shook his head.

Chu Qingzhi asked again, "Then do you like to study medicine like Fourth Sister?"

Chu Liu still shook his head.

Chu Qingzhi raised her head and thought for a while, "Then is there anything you particularly like to do? Just doing it for fun."

After a while, Chu Liu said in a low voice with some embarrassment, "Fifth sister, I like to play with mud, I can make small clay figurines with mud very well, and I also made bowls, chopsticks, tables, chairs... ..."

Chu Qingzhi was a little interested, "Can you show me?"

Chu Liu gave a cheerful "hmm", then ran back to the room and brought out many small clay figurines, including cats, monkeys, and kitchen pots, bowls, basins and so on.

After reading these, Chu Qingzhi discovered Chu Liu's talent, "Chu Liu, why don't you learn how to make porcelain?"

Chu Liu was puzzled, "Huh? Porcelain?"
