Chapter 374: More Land

That cheered up everyone. They laughed and agreed to her proposal heartily.
It was never easy to make a table full of dishes, especially when it came to the people who ate a lot. Qiao Xuan did not cook every day.
Normally it was Ms. Xu and Yang Xiaoni who cooked, and Taotao helped
Now Ms. Xu’s cooking skills had improved a little, mainly because she was willing to put seasonings, and knew how to put various condiments such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar together. In addition to the vegetables in the yard, there were also dried bamboo shoots, various dried mushrooms, and fish. Shrimp, meat, tofu and other delicious ingredients that were cooked over a fast fire, and the taste would be equally good.
Qiao Xuan had thought that the seeds could be picked within one day, but the time was limited, and she had to postpone the work of golden sprouts.
It seemed that they needed to work one more day to pick the lavender.
After around a week, when a new patch ripened, they could come and pick it again.
That was very troublesome, and the harvest was full, so Qiao Xuan made a calculation and found that there should be at least 20 or 25 kgs of it.
The seeds were raven, plumpy, oily on the surface, looking really good.
Qiao Xuan could easily feel that what was hidden under the shell was full of liveliness.
They did not stay late in the mountains. By the time they went home, the sun was just setting.
They gathered the seeds, and after taking a shower, Qiao Xuan started to make the dinner.
She had already put dried shrimps, and dried hairtail in hot water, and now they were ready.
She even put some sea cucumbers and abalones in water, but she was going to leave them until tomorrow, since it was very late to make it this evening.
Dishes like braised sea cucumber with scallion and braised abalone in soy sauce had been made twice before, and her family loved them.
They went into the mountains and brought some things back, including shrimps, hairtails, and one rooster.
The dishes included roasted shrimp in tomato sauce, refreshing and sweet, and pan-fried octopus, which was tender and delicious. The rooster was made with garlic and green onion as the main condiment, so they had one dish made of ginger and spring onion chicken.
Ms. Fang had bought two chunks of tofu. She cut them, fried them and cooked them with mushrooms.
They picked some vegetables from the garden and finally everything was set.
The whole family had not eaten dishes made by Qiao Xuan in days, so they could not help but eat one more bowl of food.
The following day, they brought some seeds of lavender home, they were not as many as those of golden sprouts, but there were not too less as well.
They could do one more round of harvesting.
Qiao Xuan had not expected that they could fill up the five mu of the field at one go.
She had not hired people for this level of project, and they could barely manage it personally, so they would take the amount step by step.
They would plant one more patch in the following year.

Qiao Xuan felt a bit guilty when the whole family was helping her diligently. So, she told Shao Yunduan that she would buy some things in the town when he went to the college, like winter clothes and so on.
“We will go to the agent and buy some more land for the creeping figs! We will plant over dozens of mu!”
“And we will need to find people to open the land in the tea mountains. We can speak with the Land Officer at the Zhang Village. If the villagers are willing to help us, we can hire some from the nearby place so they could also earn some money.”
Shao Yunduan nodded and then looked at her. “We are not living there, and Uncle Erzhu is taking care of things for us. We should visit the Land Officer if we need his help.”
“I agree!’
