The Beauty in the Peasant Family - C254
Of course, these worries were all from six months ago, when Manager Wu had still not seen the production of the Sunset Clouds Mountain’s purple grapes. By the time it was the first of June, when Qin Wuya sent people to deliver the brewed purple fruit s to the northern suburbs’s plant, the worry in Manager Wu’s heart had long since died down.
Especially when she thought about how Qin Wuya had told her that there was still a batch left in July and August, she was so happy that she even woke up from her dream.
There was nothing that he could do, not to mention the Manager Wu, but any merchant who calculated the profits from a box of ‘Purple Drunken’ Cake would wake up with a smile.
During the month in which Qin Wuya, the Madam Wei, was busy, Xu San did not stay idle either. According to the blueprint and the ruler Qin Wuya gave him, he had already cleaned up the entire vineyard. Qin Wuya was extremely satisfied with the fact that two-thirds of the water channel had already been dug.
However, Qin Wuya could not afford to be lazy in the future, and could only rush to Sunset Clouds Mountain in the morning.
After all, there were still a lot of issues to be dealt with to create a vineyard. Just relying on a blueprint was obviously not enough. As for the good brothers that Xu San brought along, they didn’t even know what dry grape were before, let alone finding two professionals from them.
This way, Qin Wuya, the amateur, would have no choice but to go forward and personally suppress the crowd.
Qin Wuya was not too familiar with these areas, she could only roughly see the cultivation areas of the vineyard that she had seen in her previous life. According to the slope of the terrain, she roughly divided the four cultivation areas into four areas.
These four growing areas, except for the common wild dry land, were rectangular in shape, and each piece had the same length and direction. This allowed for irrigation and drainage, which of course made it easier for farmers to move in and out of the area.
In addition to the growing areas themselves, the roads between the areas had to be more topographically planned.
For example, the main road had to run through the entire center of the vineyard. In addition, the central part of the main road needed to be connected to the gallery framework that Qin Wuya had drawn on the blueprint earlier.
As the vineyard was crescent shaped, other than the main road, Qin Wuya also had her people walk around the entire area of the vineyard like the crescent moon.
There were four entrances to each of these walks, which were connected to four separate branches. The four branches could lead to four different cultivation areas of dry grape, and then converge on the main road through the cultivation areas.
Of course, other than the roads and drainage system, the majority of vineyard s also add protective forests to improve the climate of the vineyard.
However, Qin Wuya could definitely save on this matter, since there were a lot of trees in the Sunset Clouds Mountain.
Although the hundreds of Chao Chung Hall Brothers had been busy for a month, they had actually only cut down the trees within the range of the vineyard. As for the one outside the vineyard, they had not even touched it yet, it was a natural protective forest.
“Let’s clean up and set up a pavilion on the east side first.”
Qin Wuya pointed to Xu San according to the blueprint, then said: “In addition, to the west side of the forest, call for the brothers to tidy up a piece of land and build a courtyard. “It’s not that big of a deal. There are three rooms for a farmer to stay over the night.”
“Then what is this place for?” Xu San pointed to another spot on the map that was marked out by Qin Wuya.
“This is a breeding ground.” Qin Wuya glanced at him and saw that Xu San did not understand, so she explained again: “They are used to raise livestock. Do you know what is the most important thing for such a large vineyard to grow? ”
“What is it?” Xu San had never been down in his life before, so he was really confused about this sort of thing.
Qin Wuya raised her eyebrows, looked at Xu San, and laughed: “Of course it’s manure.
Sunset Clouds Mountain is inconvenient, when the time comes, do you think it’s convenient for you to bring your brothers down the mountain for midnight snacks or to raise them? ”
The moment Xu San thought about the scene that Qin Wuya had just described, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he hurriedly flattered her: “Madam is still the most considerate.”
Qin Wuya did not care about Xu San’s flattery, she only calculated the amount of trash she would need per mu of land and said, “It’s better to be full of manure, so this breeding ground cannot be short of pigs, cows, chickens and sheep. “How about this, I’ll go back home and draw the blueprints first. Tomorrow, you go gather some people to build the shed according to my blueprints.”
After sending Xu San away, Qin Wuya looked at the pile of drawings in her hands, and started to worry.
Just having a vineyard and a breeding ground wouldn’t be enough this year. It would be a huge project to plan the entire Sunset Clouds Mountain into the shape that he wants.
But luckily, it was still in the middle of summer, and the best time to graft dry grape was after the winter leaves entered their hibernation period and before the sprout. With this calculation, as long as they increased their speed a bit, they would be able to plant the dry grape later in the winter.
When it was noon, Qin Wuya went back and forth from the Sunset Clouds Mountain to the courtyard, just as she was about to rest, she coincidentally met her wet nurse who carried Zhang Weiyan to the awning to play.
Right now, the little guy had already been here for more than four months, and he could easily roll around and crawl around on a small scale.
Seeing the little guy wearing the extremely joyful red undergarment, revealing his white, chubby, lotus-like limbs that were randomly rolling around on the cool mat, sometimes hugging a variety of small toys while chuckling, and sometimes pushing the bulging tendons around the tatami as he performed all martial arts. For some reason, Qin Wuya’s heart inexplicably softened, and she even faintly blamed herself for being such a unreliable mother.
‘Thinking that after Sunset Clouds Mountain’s Villa is done with it, I’ll definitely come back and take care of my son.
Qin Wuya made up her mind. She thought that since she couldn’t give his son a childhood with a mother, she should at least leave his son a childhood with a mother.
Okay, it was obvious to Qin Wuya that it would be tasteless to see his son and Zhang Shan not getting close to him. In any case, she had no memory of this child before he was three years old, so wouldn’t she be closer to him in the future?
If Zhang Shan knew of Qin Wuya’s shameless thoughts, he would definitely ask: “Wifey, didn’t you say that you want to be Yan Mother?”
In the middle of July, when Qin Wuya, Madam Wei and the rest finished making the second wave of purple fruit sauce and sent it to the ice cave in the northern suburbs, the scale of the breeding grounds in Sunset Clouds Mountain had already started to take shape.
Qin Wuya was afraid that she would not have enough fertilizer in the coming years, so she spent three hundred silver taels on Xu San to search the nearby villages for chicks and piglets.
The breeding ground had only just been built, it was completely empty. If we were to start raising everything from the beginning, it would be unknown how long would it take for us to be able to see the scale, so Qin Wuya still wanted Xu San to bring up those half-grown livestock at all costs.
Fortunately, most of the livestock here were already half a year old and were relatively well-fed. If they were the same type of animals, then there might not be many who could survive until the day they were slaughtered.
However, the Madam Wei and the Madam Wei were actually all kinds of experts. With the thought of not wasting the special talents, Qin Wuya sent the and her mother to the Sunset Clouds Mountain together.
The suggested furniture was also complete, and there would be someone responsible for sending them water and food everyday. As long as the Madam Lin and the Madam Wei were fully focused on taking care of the livestock, it would be fine. It wasn’t really a burden on them.
Madam Lin was already used to working in Qin family. Although Qin Wuya had stayed in the town to recuperate for over a year and had been a mistress for over a year, deep down, she still had the personality of a village woman.
Originally, Qin Wuya was worried that Madam Lin’s body would not be able to hold up well after what happened to him, but unexpectedly, after Madam Lin entered the Sunset Clouds Mountain and looked at a row of piglets, she became spirited. She stayed with Madam Wei for more than half a month, and did not lose too much weight.
However, as the number of livestock that Xu San plundered from the nearby villages increased, the Madam Lin and her men quickly ran out of things to do.
Qin Wuya was unable to get Xu San to bring up ten brothers of the Chao Chung Hall to be their assistants, and she himself entrusted the task to the Madam Li to help him find a few women in the town who were good at raising livestock.
Although Qin Wuya paid a high price of silver, and said that she wanted these women to stay in another place on the mountain, but she promised them four days of rest in a month, which attracted a dozen or so women to help him out.
Qin Wuya sent all of the women onto the Sunset Clouds Mountain, where they were picked out by the Madam Lin and the Madam Wei. Those who picked it, would be left in the breeding ground to raise their livestock, while those who did not would be left in the logistics department to cook for the big guys.
After setting up the workshop on the Sunset Clouds Mountain, the main kitchen of the Chao Chung Hall no longer needed to send people to deliver food to the Mu Village every day. Instead, it would send food ingredients to the farmers on the mountain every five days.
Although the farmers on the mountain all knew how to make fire and cook, they were not professional, and if it wasn’t for the few women that Madam Wei and Madam Lin picked out, they would be of great use, and could completely improve the eating and drinking skills of the men on the Sunset Clouds Mountain.
Furthermore, the Orchid Villa on the Sunset Clouds Mountain was currently under intense construction, and at this time, a not too big worry had occurred in the backyard of the Chao Chung Hall.
Originally, ever since Qin Wuya found out about Wang Nu’s plans to have Fu Xi serve her son Fang Da as her concubine, she had always kept Fu Xi by her side and didn’t give him any chances.
At first, Wang Nu did not notice anything, but every time she came to the backyard, she would involuntarily ask Tsai Zi about Fu Xi.
Tsai Zi was a calm and steady person, her words were tight as well. No matter how hard sshe tried, he couldn’t find out what was going on.
Over time, the Wang Nu also noticed that something was amiss. However, she didn’t know where it was, and thought to find an opportunity to secretly catch Fu Xi and ask him.
Coincidentally, on this day, Qin Wuya brought Fu Xi out of the house and the carriage left the alley, Qin Wuya realized that she had forgotten to bring the blueprint.
Qin Wuya had originally planned to make the carriage turn around to go get it, but Fu Xi said that the alley was too small and it would not be convenient for the carriage to turn back.
Qin Wuya thought that there wasn’t much way for the carriage to go out of Chao Chung Hall, so she let Fu Xi do as she pleased. Only Qin Wuya did not expect that Fu Xi would coincidentally bump into Wang Nu, who was planning to catch him.
Wang Nu hadn’t seen Fu Xi for a month or two, and it was rare to see someone who wasn’t willing to let go of him easily.
When the girl encountered this kind of matter, she could not refute it. Furthermore, with Fu Xi’s introverted nature, who did not know how to speak, being pulled along by the Wang Nu in front of the door had caused his face to turn completely red.
Seeing Fu Xi’s face turn red, Wang Nu thought that he was moved by her words and immediately added fuel to the fire:
“Don’t worry, after you enter my house, even though you’re just a concubine, based on your previous relationship with me, I’ll definitely treat you as my daughter. If you can give my son a son and a daughter …” “Then in the future …”
‘s face turned from red to green, and then turned green and white. Without waiting for Wang Nu to finish speaking, she struggled and anxiously said:
“Momo, stop saying these things. Madam is still waiting for me to send the blueprints over. There’s no time to lose.”
“When a girl grows up, she always wants to marry. What’s there to be shy about?” Wang Nu thought that Fu Xi’s excuse for bringing out the blueprint was because of how thin-skinned he was. He couldn’t help but grab Fu Xi’s hand and pat it, as he said with a face full of satisfaction:
“You know that it’s not easy for mama to live in the manor, so you must give mama a word of advice today.”
“Give me a confirmation?”
Qin Wuya had been waiting on the carriage for a while, and seeing that Fu Xi had not come back yet, he thought that she had placed the drawing too far in the corner, causing the girl to not be able to find it.
It just so happened that Wang Nu was holding onto Fu Xi’s hand and asked him to give a warning when they reached the door.
Qin Wuya’s face became ugly the moment she heard this. She didn’t give the Wang Nu much face as she said straightforwardly, “Does mama want to forget that Fu Xi’s indenture is in my hands? If mama has something to say, why don’t you tell me?”
