Chapter 493: Rolling Eyes

Shao Yunduan had become very confident after learning from Master Yun for so many days. He was a smart person to begin with and he could pick up things fast.

During this period, Shao Yunduan went to help with the digging of tea tree seedlings as well.

Eventually, Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan, Shao Sanlang and his wife, Shao Dalang and Qi as well as Taotao were all there.

Ms. Xu would have joined them as well if she was not pregnant.

She really wished to make money but she was pregnant so she dropped the idea.

Eldest Uncle did not know what Qiao Xuan was up to. But seeing that they were out going out, he said, “If you need any help, get Erlang and Silang to help you. Meiling could be helpful too, if Taotao is with you.” Shao Sanlang could not help but roll his eyes.

Qiao Xuan smiled. “We are not short of laborers, thanks!”

Eldest Uncle. ‘ .

He suspected that Qiao Xuan was doing that on purpose but he had no evidence for that.

The places where golden sprouts and lavenders grew had many tea tree seedlings. So, they dug them out, tied them up and transported them on the donkey carts to the Zhang Village and pa.s.sed them onto the tenants.

The days were not yet warm, and Qiao Xuan decided to wait a little longer for the seedlings to be planted.

They did not have many tea tree seedlings. Hence, they spent four days digging everything that could be dug away.

They had five mu of golden sprouts and three mu of lavender at the Zhang Village.

These tea seedlings could be picked this autumn, and Qiao Xuan thought that the effort was worth it. It was a test for the tea processors to train themselves, so the whole process could be smooth henceforth.

It will soon rise to a certain scale next year.

With her superpower as the a.s.sistant, they would definitely have a lot of tea leaves next year.

They had just finished digging when Shao Dalang was summoned to the meeting. They were going to fix the main ca.n.a.l, and that’s why Land Officer Ding gathered everyone for the meeting. As a result, Shao Dalang did not join them to dig the creeping figs.

There were three main ca.n.a.ls in the village. All the water for irrigation of paddy fields was brought through these three main ca.n.a.ls. The largest and longest main ca.n.a.l had not been repaired for many years, and it was high time. When the Land Officer mentioned it, no one objected.

Therefore, all the households involved in the irrigation of the main ca.n.a.l would provide labor and take turns to repair it. The first section of the Shao Family also had a field to draw water from the ca.n.a.l, so Shao Dalang had to repair it too. It would take three days.

Qiao Xuan and the others continued to go into the mountains to cut the creeping figs, whilst Shao Dalang went to fix the ca.n.a.l.

This work was much easier, and faster than digging seedlings. They cut a certain amount, sent it to the Zhang Village in one day and had it cut into pieces of more than 20 centimeters. The amount of cuttings in a day was enough to cover ten mu.

At this rate, they would only need five days to finish the work.

Qiao Xuan asked Shao Yunduan to stop during the last three days. “There is only a little work left, and we have enough help. You should stay at home and study! ”

Shao Yunduan could help when they were very busy, but not all the time.

He was about to have lessons with Master Yun, thus he agreed. “Then, you should take it slow. We have enough time to complete this.”

Qiao Xuan smiled and agreed.

But not long after they returned home, someone rushed to them and said, “Dalang pa.s.sed out because a stone hit his legs!”
