Chapter 1499 Listen to People's Persuasion and Eat Enough
Finally, four acres of Chinese cabbage and more than two acres of radishes were planted. As long as they can grow up smoothly, not only can they not be eaten at home, but they can also be sold.
All the plants have been planted, and there are still a lot of cabbage and radish seedlings left in Sun Yingying's house. Patriarch Sun heard that Sun Yingying had cabbage seedlings and radish seedlings at home. He thought of the sandy fields at home, and they kept them there. It is better to be like Sun Dahai's family.
"Da Hai, I'll take some seedlings, and when I collect the cabbage, let your aunt make you buns with cabbage oil residue to eat." Patriarch Sun said with a smile while sorting out these green seedlings.
Hearing this, Sun Dahai smiled. When he was a child, he was outside chopping wood, and he came back late. He didn't leave food for him at home, but the third aunt often secretly gave him food. Thinking about it now, I miss the big bun very much.
"Okay, there is oil residue in the bun, and it tastes very good." Sun Dahai smiled, "I still remember it now!"
"If you like it, let your aunt make some." Patriarch Sun said with a smile, holding a basket of cabbage seedlings and a basket of radish seedlings and left.
Before leaving, seeing the old man Li who was busy in the field, Patriarch Sun asked Sun Dahai, "O Dahai, you... Who is that person in the field?"
Sun Dahai smiled slightly, "Uncle Patriarch, as you know, I have bad legs and feet. Dalang and Erlang are in the county seat, so I bought someone to help with the housework and to look after the house."
Hearing this, Patriarch Sun was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud, "You kid, it's a good thing now, but this is all hard earned by your family. Even if others say anything, don't take it to heart. Don't be afraid of the shadow, you know it."
"Well, I see, Third Uncle." Sun Dahai thanked him. Originally, this should have been what his father told him, but now it was Third Uncle who told him that although he was from a distant house, he appreciated it.
When the patriarch Sun saw that Sun Dahai could listen to his advice, he didn't worry, and then said with a smile: "Dahai, you see that you have servants in your family, and you have money in your hands, and there are shops in the county town, but I think You have one more thing to do."
"What's the matter?" Sun Dahai asked, listening to people's persuasion, having a full meal, listening to the advice of wise elders, and avoiding detours.
"The second boy of your family is good at reading. Back then, Wang Xiucai from the next village came to your house to look for him. You don't want your son to study, but your family's circumstances didn't allow it, and there was nothing you could do about it. , but now that your family is rich, the third uncle will talk more and send Erlang to study. Even if we are not an official and are admitted to a scholar, we can keep those things in our hands! If you don’t get bullied by others, you can go out. Be tough! My second grandson has been studying over there, and Wang Xiucai said that after two years, my second grandson will be able to try it out." Patriarch Sun persuaded the family to prosper.
Hearing this, Sun Dahai smiled, "Uncle Patriarch, I have already sent Erlang to study in Shuxiang Garden in the county seat."
"Ah?" The patriarch was taken aback, "Scholarly Garden? There is indeed an academy with this name in the county seat, but the cost there is very expensive. It takes three taels of repair a month, plus room and board, one month. At least five taels of silver. I also went to inquire at the beginning, but I thought it was so expensive, so I gave up and read it with Wang Xiucai. After all, there are several grandchildren in my family, and I can’t empty my family for the sake of my second grandson. No. It can be seen that you kid, keep silent, it has been done."
