During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.

When Xiao Dongsheng heard this, he quickly waved his hand and refused.

"No, no, no need to pay me wages, just give me food."

How can he have the nerve to ask for wages?

Shen Qianning explained: "Now that I make money selling vegetables, I can't treat you badly, but you have to keep a good watch during this period. The pumpkins in the field must not be stolen."

Pumpkins cost twenty cents per pound. If one was stolen, the three of them would lose just over a day's wages.

Xiao Dongsheng immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will sleep directly in the pumpkin patch tonight, and no one will steal it."

Shen Qianning gave him the reward that belonged to Xiao Dongsheng for the past two days, and also told him that he would help pull weeds starting from tomorrow day.

After Xiao Dongsheng left, Shen Qianning went to Qiu Shui's house to pick up the three children.

As soon as Xiao Dongchen got home, he talked to Shen Qianning about what happened today.

"Mom, my brothers and I have been guarding the vegetable patch since you left!"

When Shen Qianning left, she did tell her three children to take care of the vegetable plot to avoid theft.

However, the safety of the three children still needs to be warned.

He touched Xiao Dongchen's little face and said, "Then did Grandpa Xiao follow you?"

Xiao Nanchuan said obediently: "Grandpa Xiao is guarding the vegetable field with us! He said that the vegetables in the vegetable field are very important and cannot be stolen by the villagers."

Xiao Xiyue said in a waxy voice: "There are still people wandering around our vegetable field today! But when they saw us, the wandering people left."

Shen Qianning had long expected this situation.

When people in the village see her going to the city every day, they will definitely be interested in the vegetable fields.

Let the three children take turns guarding the vegetable patch tomorrow, and then start cooking for the children.

The meat is taken out from the space, stewed directly, tomatoes and beans are added, and modern seasonings are added, and the taste is incredible.

The three children ate so much that they licked their bowls clean.

"Mom, the food you cook is definitely more delicious than the restaurants in the city."

Xiao Dongchen said these words happily with a satisfied and happy face.

Don't say it, these words reminded Shen Qianning.

There are a lot of spices in her space. If she had to use them all by herself, she would not be able to use them all in ten lifetimes.

But if you open a restaurant...

Shen Qianning thought about it for a while and rejected the idea for the time being.

After all, she is too busy now and still has to take care of her three children.

In addition, the county town is not suitable for restaurant business now.

Hold on!

Let’s wait and see next year after the kids go to school.

The next day, Shen Qianning drove the carriage and left the village.

Today I brought more tender pumpkins, about eighty or so, and I also picked a little of each of the other vegetables.

When we get to the county seat, we go straight to Chen's store.

It's just that she deliberately didn't plant vegetables today and left a little bit aside, planning to visit Mrs. Cui in the county seat later.

In a place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the county magistrate is equivalent to the local emperor.

Shen Qianning felt that if she had a good relationship with Magistrate Meng, he might be able to help a lot in the future.

Shen Qianning is not stupid, and he also knows how to make use of the relationships around him.

Today, because there were a lot of pumpkins, I sold them for more than four taels of silver.

After getting the money, Shen Qianning went directly to the county government office.

After Magistrate Meng came, Puxian County was much better than before.

At least, it's not as chaotic as before.

Shen Qianning still admired this county magistrate because he was known as an upright official.

It was he who later led Puxian County to slowly improve.

It’s just that the county magistrate is not mentioned many times in the original article.

Every time I mentioned it, it was the county magistrate who came to the rescue for the heroine Shen Yunyun.

The carriage was tied up at the gate of the county government office. There were officials there, so he didn't worry about the carriage being stolen.

She told the official her name and waited at the gate of the county government office with a bamboo basket in hand.

After a while, Magistrate Meng came out in person.

Magistrate Meng's smile was gentle and enthusiastic: "When I heard that you were coming, my mother urged me to come out to pick you up."

Shen Qianning and Magistrate Meng entered the county government office together.

Mrs. Meng looked at Shen Qianning with a smile and said, "Are you particularly busy recently?"

With that said, he stepped forward and took Shen Qianning's hand into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Shen Qianning put the bamboo basket on the table and said, "You can eat all the vegetables in the fields. These are the vegetables coming out of the fields now. I took a little of each one and you can taste it first. If If you like something to eat, tell me and I will bring it to you."

Mrs. Meng was flattered and quickly refused: "It's impossible, it's impossible! How can we want your things?"

It was obviously Shen Qianning who saved her life.

They were supposed to owe Shen Qianning, but in the end, it was Shen Qianning who gave them things.

She felt bad about the small cucumber she ate last time.

Her son said that the vegetables grown by Shen Qianning were very expensive and were only supplied to Chen's shops.

He had eaten once when Chen Zhongqiu was entertaining guests.

Then I will never forget it.

Shen Qianning said helplessly: "It's too outrageous for you to say that!"

Magistrate Meng asked Shen Qianning to sit down.

After Shen Qianning sat down, he continued: "These vegetables are quite expensive to buy outside, but I grow them myself! I treat you as friends, and it is my intention to give them to you. Besides, I may need County Magistrate Meng in the future. Help!"

She told Magistrate Meng about helping first so that he could be prepared.

Mrs. Meng liked Shen Qianning very much, and she talked endlessly about her.

Before leaving, Mrs. Meng asked the maid to bring the new shoes that she had prepared for the three children in advance.

"If you don't come to see me, I'm going to come to you. I don't know if the child can wear these three pairs of shoes. I sewed them with my own hands according to the size of the child's feet I saw that day. I made them when I was older. She's not as good looking at needlework as she was when she was young, don't dislike it."

How could Shen Qianning dislike it?

Looking at the cute little shoes in my hands, I was speechless for a moment and couldn't say anything grateful.

Magistrate Meng Meng was afraid that Shen Qianning would not accept it, so he quickly said: "You should accept it! My mother made it according to the length of the three children's feet. If you don't accept it, we will have to keep it there forever."

Shen Qianning put away the shoes.

After Mrs. Meng repeatedly persuaded her to stay, Shen Qianning had lunch before leaving the county government office.

When I came out, I found that the horses were eating grass. I guess it was the horses that Magistrate Meng ordered the officials to feed.

Instead of rushing home, she went to the vegetable market and bought a piglet.

I had always wanted to buy a pig before, but I forgot about it when I was busy.

This year she must eat the New Year Pig.

This little piglet cost her almost two hundred coins.

This will grunt in the pig cage.

Then he stopped the carriage.

The three children ran out of Uncle Xiao's house.

Without exception, all three children were attracted by the little piglet on the carriage.

"Mom, is this our little piglet?" Xiao Xiyue blinked his big eyes and asked curiously.

Xiao Dongchen was very excited: "Mom, from now on the task of feeding the pigs will be left to us."

They had heard my mother say that she wanted to buy a pig before, but they thought she had forgotten when she didn't buy it.

I didn’t expect to buy it today. The little piggy is so cute!
