Chapter 406 Sun’s matchmaking
Chapter 406 Sun’s matchmaking
When Su Xiaoxiao suggested planting chili peppers and other crops on the Su family's few acres of high-quality land, Old Man Su readily agreed.
However, when he saw those unfamiliar varieties of seeds being planted in the fields, Old Man Su was quite worried. He was afraid that what Su Xiaoxiao planted would not only yield no harvest but also not fetch much money.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't explain much to him, but instead took Old Su to the small garden in her yard.
Several rows of chili peppers were planted there, and the chili peppers in the garden were growing well. As the weather gradually warmed up, some chili pepper seedlings had already begun to produce small red and green chili peppers, hanging on the seedlings like little lanterns. Some seedlings were only producing white chili pepper flowers, which were still quite eye-catching.
"What strange seedlings, they actually have white flowers?"
At this moment, Old Man Su stood in front of the furrow and carefully examined the seedlings. After all, they had never planted such chili seedlings before, so they naturally found it very novel.
You're saying this is a chili seedling?
Su Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, "Dad, these are indeed chili seedlings, an indispensable seasoning in the dishes we eat in the future. And I believe that as long as we plant these seedlings, we will definitely reap a lot of money in the future."
Old Man Su certainly didn't dare to refute his daughter-in-law's statement, since the person he dared not question too much was Su Xiaoxiao.
If others say something, this old-fashioned man will argue and say it's not like that, but if it's Su Xiaoxiao who says it, after several times, Su Xiaoxiao has been making decisions and taking the lead in all matters, big and small, for the family. She has never let the Su family suffer any losses. Moreover, Su Xiaoxiao's knowledge is far greater than that of everyone in the family, so naturally he doesn't dare to question anything.
"Alright, Dad trusts your judgment!"
Old Man Su raised his head, his eyes filled with hope as he looked at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Child, I'm entrusting the family land to you this time. You certainly won't disappoint your father, will you?"
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, saying, "Dad, don't worry, I've always had a good eye for money. You can just wait to count the money."
“Alright,” Old Man Su got up and slowly walked towards Su Xiaoxiao’s house with his back hunched over.
"I still need to go to the fields and keep an eye on things. I don't trust the people you hired!"
Su Xiaoxiao took one look and realized that the old man was really stubborn. He was so old and in poor health, yet he insisted on going to supervise the work every day.
“Dad, you don’t need to go and watch over them every day. Although they are young, they are all farmers. They should be able to farm. Besides, if they can’t farm well, I won’t give them any money.”
Old Man Su didn't turn around. He waved to Su Xiaoxiao behind him and said, "Your father is a farmer all his life. Although my body can't keep up now, I still have experience. I can't help with anything else, but I can go over and give them some guidance. If I have nothing else to do, helping them out is better than lying at home all the time!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Old Su's back and shook her head helplessly. She really couldn't persuade the old man.
Since he wanted to go and inspect, they had no choice but to let him go. Although it was hard work, he was willing to do it, and Su Xiaoxiao did not stop him too much.
Su Xiaoxiao, the big boss, would also go to the fields from time to time to check on the situation and bring water and dry food to those people to relieve their hunger.
The hired workers that Su Xiaoxiao hired all said that although Su Xiaoxiao was a big boss, she was very kind and treated the long-term workers very well, so they naturally worked even harder. The three Xiang sisters would also come with Su Xiaoxiao after finishing their work in the workshop, helping her bring the long-term workers in the fields some refreshing snacks like jam, water, and mung bean soup.
Moreover, the three sisters were willing to work in the fields with them. The three Xiang sisters were not unfamiliar with such farm work, as they had done this kind of work before.
Su Xiaoxiao was quite satisfied with the performance of her three sisters; the only person she was dissatisfied with was Su Xiuer.
Su Xiaoxiao had never been to the workshop to see how they trained her; she only heard Sun Shi tell her that Su Xiuer was distracted during training and didn't seem to want to learn properly at all.
However, Madam Sun knew about their family's situation and thought that Su Xiuer couldn't accept so many blows, which was why she became so listless and seemed to be in a lot of pain and didn't want to study properly. This was actually understandable.
Su Xiuer performed very poorly.
So Su Xiaoxiao said she should fire Su Xiuer so she wouldn't be able to stay there any longer and dampen the enthusiasm of other people.
However, Madam Sun still said she wanted to give Su Xiuer some chances and wanted to postpone dismissing her.
Su Xiaoxiao learned from Old Man Su that Su Xiuer had been home for many days and that the wounds on her face had scabbed over and healed.
However, she was still very depressed. She would lock herself in her room and not speak. She would only eat one meal a day, and even that was only because Old Man Su had to go to her room and beg her to eat.
But this really isn't a solution; perhaps this blow is too much for her to bear.
Finally, Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to say, "How about you help me find a suitable husband, Sister Sun, and help Su Xiuer find one?"
Sun smiled and nodded in agreement. She said, "Speaking of suitable young men, I have actually seen a few quite good ones in our workshop's recruitment this time."
"Those young men are all quite good in terms of age and personality. Let me see, and help our Xiuer choose the best one!"
Su Xiaoxiao was naturally very grateful for Sun's actions. After all, Sun was a very kind older sister, and her willingness to help with this matter made Su Xiaoxiao feel very at ease.
Su Xiaoxiao is indeed not very good at matchmaking; sometimes she makes a fool of herself by randomly pairing people up.
Up until now, she had been trying to bring Qian Musheng and Liu Qiaomei together, but she had never been able to. This made Su Xiaoxiao very frustrated.
Moreover, if this task is given to Madam Sun, she likes to organize things and is willing to help people find good matches. She probably wants to take on the role of matchmaker or something.
So the matter was settled, and Madam Sun said she would help Su Xiuer find a suitable husband.
