Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 474: Big Warm Bed

"Sister An Yue, the corns in these four fields are growing well. How did you grow them?"

An Yue smiled and said, "For corn to grow well, the first condition is to choose the right seeds and then sow them at the right time."

"After sowing, when the seeds are about one foot tall, we should start transplanting them."

"After planting, you still have to weed, water, fertilize, and be careful about pest control."

Mrs. Qi sighed, "Farm work is not easy. If the crops want to grow well, the villagers must have put in a lot of effort."

At this time, a man's voice came from behind.

"So Yueyue is back?"

An Yue turned around and saw that it was Wang Hu.

She smiled and responded, "Brother Hu, I'm busy."

Wang Hu asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Yes! Who are these people...?"

"Oh, this is the county magistrate, his wife, his lady, and his lawyer." An Yue introduced them to Wang Hu.

"County... County Magistrate!" After hearing this, Wang Hu was so frightened that his eyes widened and his mouth opened.

Seeing this, An Yue hurriedly walked up to Wang Hu and whispered to him, "Brother Hu, I'll have to trouble you to go to the west end of the village and ask the village chief to come to my house as soon as possible."

"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go right away."

As he said that, Wang Hu ran towards the west of the village. He looked back to confirm as he ran, and he could hardly believe his eyes.

An Yue walked up to the Qi County Magistrate and pointed to the hillside and said, "Sir, Madam, my humble home is right there on the hillside."

Magistrate Qi, his wife and others all looked at where An Yue was pointing.

An Yue continued, "It's almost noon now, let's go to my humble abode for lunch first. After lunch, I'll take you around the village."

"Okay. OK." The county magistrate responded readily.

An Yue raised her hand and said, "Sir, Madam, Miss, Master, please come this way."

A group of people came to the gate of An's yard.

An Yue walked up and knocked on the door.

dong dong dong.

Eighty was barking wildly in the yard.

After a few more knocks, the voice of my sister-in-law Meng Xiuer came from the yard.

"who is it?"

"Sister-in-law, it's me, Yueyue."

Only when Bashi heard An Yue's voice did he stop barking.

"It's Yueyue! Wait, I'll open the door right away."

The gate of the courtyard was opened, and Meng Xiuer looked at several unfamiliar people standing behind An Yue.

She asked An Yue with doubt: "They are..."

An Yue introduced Meng Xiuer: "Sister-in-law, this is the county magistrate, his wife, and the legal advisor."

After hearing this, Meng Xiuer was so frightened that her face turned pale, her legs and feet went weak, and she almost fell down.

"Sir, Madam, this is my eldest sister-in-law."

At this time, a little boy wearing a bellyband ran out from behind Meng Xiuer.

She ran and called out in a baby voice: "Auntie, Auntie..."

"Hey...good boy, let auntie hug you." An Yue hugged Xiaobao in her arms and kissed his chubby face.

"Oh, sir, madam, please come in quickly."

When Magistrate Qi and his men walked into the courtyard, An Yue approached Meng Xiu'er and said, "Sister-in-law, go and prepare lunch quickly. We haven't had lunch yet."

"Oh oh oh, okay, okay, I'll go right away." Meng Xiuer recovered and said to the little treasure in An Yue's arms.

"Xiaobao, get off your aunt quickly. Your aunt is going to receive some guests."

Xiaobao hugged An Yue's arms tightly with both hands, stuck out his chubby butt towards his mother, and kicked his little feet.

With an unhappy look on his face, he said, "No...no, I miss my aunt. I want my aunt to hug me."

An Yue looked back and found that County Magistrate Qi and others were standing in the middle of the yard, looking around.

An Yue used her special trick to coax Xiao Bao: "Xiao Bao, Auntie has some candy here."

As she spoke, An took out a candy from her bag, handed it to Xiaobao, and said, "Xiaobao, go to the kitchen with your mother to cook first, and then Aunt Zi will give Xiaobao more candy at the party, okay?"

Xiaobao took the candy, put it in his mouth, and then obediently followed his mother to the kitchen.

An Yue walked forward quickly, raised her hand to signal everyone to enter the main hall, and said, "Everyone, please go to the inner room."

Qi Jin'er looked around the yard with curiosity, and her eyes fell on the wall.

She ran to An Yue with a smile, hugged An Yue's arm and said, "Sister An Yue, did you decorate this yard?"

An Yue nodded and responded, "Yes, what do you think, Jin'er?"

Qi Jin'er raised her hand and pointed at the wall: "Look at the roses all over the yard, and the grape racks with grapes growing on them. They are so beautiful."

Everyone walked into the main hall, and An Yue poured a bowl of tea for each of them.

Magistrate Qi picked up the tea bowl, took two sips, and gently put it down, his eyes looking at the walls of the main hall.

He smiled and said, "I never expected that Miss An Yue's house is actually built with blue bricks."

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. A few years ago, the An family compound was destroyed by a fire, and we built this compound later."

"Well, is that guy okay?"

An Yue shook her head: "It's okay."

The master beside him said, "This kind of blue brick and tile house is rare in every village."

"Yes! This officer has visited multiple villages, which is rare in each village."

The lady sitting next to Magistrate Qi suddenly asked, "Miss An Yue, I heard you say earlier in the carriage that you have a brick bed at home. Could you take us to have a look?"

"No problem, it's just that my family lives in that room, so it might be a bit messy, I hope you don't mind."

Magistrate Qi waved his hand and said, "It's all right, all right." Then he stood up, somewhat impatient to see it.

An Yue brought Magistrate Qi and his men to the east ear room.

As soon as he entered the east wing, County Magistrate Qi was deeply attracted by the earthen kang bed in the room.

He walked forward curiously and touched the structure of the earthen bed.

Qi Jin'er, who was standing next to the lady, asked, "Sister An Yue, is this the warm winter bed you mentioned?"

An Yue nodded and said, "Yes, this is the earthen kang bed."

"When it's cold in winter, burn some firewood inside and the whole kang will become very warm. It's very comfortable to sleep on it. It can keep out the cold and make the whole house much warmer."

County Magistrate Qi nodded repeatedly: "This is very practical and can solve the big problem of heating in winter."

Mrs. Qi also said: "Yes! If everyone can sleep in a big warm bed, the lives of ordinary people will not be too difficult in winter."

Magistrate Qi nodded excitedly and exclaimed, "Tsk tsk tsk, this is worth promoting in every village. With this big warm bed, the people will suffer less."

Several people looked at the earthen bed in various ways.

"Dad, Mom, if we had this big warm bed in our house, we wouldn't have to hold a hand warmer in the winter."

Everyone was discussing while sitting on the earthen kang bed when suddenly there was a loud noise in the yard.
