The Village Doctress Chapter 143: The nanny is in place


Lin Fufu smiled mysteriously, "I won't tell you this now, but you will know when the time comes."

Lin Fen and Lin Fang looked at each other and smiled, they both believed in Lin Gospel, Lin Fen said again: "I heard from my parents about dried broad beans, I think since dried broad beans can be made into fresh broad beans, Wouldn’t it be like mung beans, soybeans, peas, and cobs?”

It was because the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional. Lin Fufu's eyes shone brightly. He clapped his hands and squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, why did I forget these things? Sister Fen is still smart!"

Not to mention anything else, mung beans and soybeans can be made into bean sprouts!

Peas can also be soaked in water to make fresh peas, or pea sprouts. In winter, these are very good vegetables!

"In this way, Sister Fen, Sister Fang, we have seen that the summer and autumn herbal medicines in our neighborhood are almost harvested. You don't need to collect some motherwort when you come back. Let's wait until next year." Lin Fufu thought for a while, Looking at Lin Fen and Lin Fang with a bright face, "Seeing that the busy farming season is about to pass, some crops have been harvested. Let's collect some mung beans, soybeans, and pea sticks for storage. There is not enough space at home. What about the houses and shops in the town."

Seeing that Lin Fufu really agreed to her proposal, Lin Fen was still a little dazed. Looking at her confused big eyes, Lin Fufu chuckled.

"However, we take these back and store them, what if we lose money in the future?" Lin Fang frowned and asked worriedly.

Lin Fufu waved his hand, "No, we have a very good relationship with Liu Ji Restaurant now. What his restaurant wants is fresh dishes, but no matter how good their cooks are and how exquisite their dishes are, But it’s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and it’s useless without fresh food ingredients. And I can provide them with out-of-season ingredients, and they are eager to see it!”

There is another point that Lin Fufu didn't say, the main reason is that Dawei didn't pay much attention to those beans, that is, in the corners of the fields, he planted some of the usual sacrificing teeth, so these beans and other coarse grains The price is generally low, Lin Fufu can't collect much, and naturally the cost of paying will not be too much.

Seeing Lin Fufu's confidence, Lin Fen and the other three were relieved.

"Sister Fen and Sister Fang will collect it for me tomorrow." The more Lin Fufu thought about it, the more feasible it became.

After all, the wild medicinal herbs in several villages near Hulu Village are almost collected, and some seeds must be saved for the next year. However, some medicinal herbs will be more effective when they are collected in the next spring, and they will have withered or are too old in autumn.

So, if you want to make money to subsidize your family throughout the winter, it is better to make a big deal than make a small fuss, so that people like Lin Fen can also have a wage in winter.

"Okay, let's go to the village to collect these beans, and we can pick some herbs when we meet them." Lin Fen readily agreed.

Lin Fufu responded with a smile, then turned to look at Lin Sanlang and said, "Brother Sanlang, you and I will go to town tomorrow, and I will go to Liuji Restaurant to ask Mr. Liu to borrow a carriage to bring the goods we made. The Biandan and Preserved Eggs were transported to the house in the town, and the utility room at home was freed up to make the third batch of Biandan and Preserved Eggs.”

Everyone said hello, Lin Fufu raised his eyes and looked out the window, seeing that it was already dark, he went to the room and took out the ten hang copper coins that he had exchanged earlier.

Da Wei’s Yihang copper coins consisted of one hundred coins, which were strung together with fine hemp rope. Lin Fufu handed the five hang coins to Lin Fen, “Sister Fen, these copper coins are for you and Sister Fang to collect beans. How much to charge, I don’t know how much the price is suitable, you go back and ask the second uncle and the second aunt, and you can make up your own minds. When I go to town with Brother Sanlang tomorrow, I will go to the bank to exchange some big money. "

Every town in the Great Wei has a bank. This bank was previously set up by various imperial merchants. It was established and managed by the household department of Dawei.

For example, Lin Fufu went to the bank to exchange silver for copper coins without paying taxes, but if he exchanged copper coins for silver, he had to pay taxes. There is also a tax on exchanging silver for bank notes, but the tax is still very low.

Whether copper coins are exchanged for silver or silver for silver bills, one penny is charged for every one hundred taels of silver, so ordinary merchants and families with spare money are willing to exchange, after all, silver and silver bills are lighter than strings of copper coins Good storage.

Madam Li told Lin Fufu all these. Lin Fufu was very curious about and admired the Princess Regent of the Great Wei Dynasty, but these were too far away from a small village girl in a border town like her...

Lin Fen and the other three went back to their home with excitement. After Lin Fufu went to see the little guy who was sleeping soundly, he went to wash and rest.

When it was just dawn on the second day, Lin Fufu had already been awakened by soft voices in the main room.

From afar, it was Nanny Qin's niece who got up early in the morning to find her.

Lin Fufu hurriedly went to wash and wash up, and then came to the main room to chat with Nanny Qin's niece.

Nurse Qin has already told her what happened to her niece, and Grandma Li also knows about it.

"Miss Lin, my name is Qin Mei. It was my third aunt who asked me to come to Hulu Village to look for you. She said that you have two young brothers and sisters who need someone to take care of you." Nanny Qin's niece stood up and introduced herself, and said what she wanted in the future,

Qin Mei was thirty-one or twelve years old, of medium stature, wearing a light blue muslin summer shirt, with a round bun behind her head, and a plain silver hairpin inserted into the bun, her face was gentle. Wan, with a clean and neat temperament on her body.

There was a smile on Lin Fufu's face, and he asked her to sit down with a smile, "I am Lin Fufu, and I am thirteen years old, so I will call you Mother Qin."

Qin Mei hurriedly bowed and agreed.

Sangu's kindness to her will never end in this life, not to mention that Sangu asked her to be a nurse for others, even if she is a rough envoy's slave, she has nothing to say!

"Well, Mother Qin, because our family has two children, although Grandma Li will help, but it will be very tiring, so I will not treat you badly in terms of wages, five taels of silver a month." The straight word of the gospel.

When Qin Mei heard that she was willing to pay five taels of silver, she couldn't help being taken aback, she didn't expect this little boss to be so generous. Previously, Nanny Qin introduced Lin Fufu and her comments to her, and also told her about Grandma Li's attachment to her.

So Qin Mei also had a lot of hope for Lin Fufu, but it was definitely not like it is now.

She had looked at her quietly before, and saw that although her family's situation was not bad in a small mountain village, she would not be so generous if she could afford a nanny, so she couldn't come to her senses for a long time.

"Mother Qin, help me take care of my younger brothers and younger sisters. I will not treat you badly. I will give you a red seal at the end of the year, and there will be subsidies for three festivals a year. I will prepare clothes for the four seasons for my mother. Yes. Mom just needs to focus on helping me take care of my younger brothers and sisters." Lin Fufu added with a smile.

When Qin Mei heard the words, her expression froze, and she didn't dare to underestimate this young boss who was only in her teens. She takes care of her two children and everything is easy to talk about!

But if you can't bring it well, or if you're thinking about something else, I'm afraid you won't give up. After all, I represent Sangu's face now, and Sangu's good sister, Grandma Li, is still watching with a smile...
