Doomsday wearing female honor: I rely on space to farm and raise my husband

Chapter 24 Servants
On the day she got married, she asked Yang Xiangrong what gifts to bring when she returned home. Yang Xiangrong told her that when the brothers in the village came home, the wives with good conditions would bring the pig to their natal home, and those with poor conditions would bring a chicken. She bought this little piglet in the city.

Xia Ye listened to what her daughter-in-law said, and smiled to greet her son and daughter-in-law to have lunch. After finishing eating and packing up, Xia Ye suddenly spoke.

"Daughter-in-law, I heard Shitou say that you can read and write, can compose poems and paint?"

Fang Qing glanced at Shitou and then at her husband. Zhang Zelin heard his father ask his wife, and he thought he might know what his father was going to say.

"This is what I think. Shitou will be nine years old at the end of the year, and she doesn't have an official name yet. I wonder if you can change Shitou's name."

Fang Qing was overwhelmed by what her father-in-law said. She asked He Dehe to change her aunt's name. She and Shitou were equals and she was not qualified to do so.

"Father-in-law, Shitou and I are of the same generation. It's not appropriate for me to change Shitou's name, and I can let my aunt take it!"

Xia Ye sighed and said, "Auntie Xin took the name Shitou. We are all uneducated farmers. When Shitou was born, your mother-in-law asked the village chief for this name."

Fang Qing felt that Zhang Xin was literate, so why did he choose such a name? Seeing that her daughter-in-law was puzzled, Xia Ye covered her mouth and smiled, "You think your new aunt knows a few words, but your new aunt only knows a dozen or so words. It's really embarrassing for your new aunt to choose her name."

Fang Qing secretly marveled. She thought Zhang Xin had read books, but she only knew a few words. If it was like his father-in-law said, it would be a bit difficult to give Shitou a nice name.

"My wife, please help my sister to change one!" Zhang Zelin felt that his sister was nine years old at the end of the year and did not have an official name yet, so he was really distressed.

Seeing her husband's pleading eyes, Fang Qing shook her head and said: Shitou's surname is Zhang, her mother passed away early, and my father-in-law must hope that she will be safe in the future.

After thinking for a while, Fang Qing said: "Father-in-law, what about Jing Fan? The word "Jing" means quiet and calm, and "Fan" means smooth sailing."

Zhang Zelin, Zhang Ze'an, and Xia Ye read Fang Qing and said these words, "Jing Fan, Zhang Jing Fan, Jing Fan...that's a good name."

"When the ancestral hall opens during the Chinese New Year, I will ask the old lady to add stones to the "family tree"." Xia Ye clapped her hands happily and said.

After Fang Qing and Zhang Zelin had chosen a name for the stone, they chatted with Xia Ye and the others for a while, and the two left and went home. After returning home, Zhang Zelin saw that he had nothing to do, and told Fang Qing that he was going to cut some cow grass.

"Wife master, you are at home and I will go and cut some cow grass and come back."

"I'll go with you. It's still early and I'll take the cow and horse out for a walk."

Zhang Zelin thought the same thing, the Mavericks have been four days old today, and they can be taken out for a walk, even if they are kept at home.

Fang Qing led the oxen and horses out, and saw Zhang Xin walking towards her house with three women.

"Girl Qing, wait a minute, I'll bring the three sisters of the Chen family to your house."

Zhang Zelin looked at the few people who came, "I'll go to herd the cattle first, and you can see what Aunt Xin is up to at home."

"Okay, you get out the cow and horse first, and I'll find you later." Seeing the people who had already arrived at the door, Fang Qing couldn't just go out like this.

"Aunt Xin, who are these three?"

Zhang Xin brought three women to Fang Qing, "Girl Qing, these three sisters Chen are tenants of your field, they came to see if you still want to continue renting the land."

Fang Qing took them home, "Tell me that you are all tenants of that land."

The three women who came heard Fang Qing's words and told about the fields they rented. Fang Qing continued to ask after several people had finished talking about their own fields.

"How did you calculate the rent?"

"Aunt Fang, our rent is [-]%." Fang Qing wondered whether the [-]% of the food belonged to the other party or she received it.

"Girl Qing, what these elder sisters mean is that after paying [-]% ​​of the grain they collect every year, they get [-]% of the grain." Zhang Xin knew that Fang Qing didn't understand these rules, so he explained to her.

Fang Qing understood after Zhang Xin's explanation, which means that she still needs to pay taxes to the imperial court every year. Except for the [-]% of the tax, these people get [-]%, and the remaining [-]% belongs to her.

"Do your families live on the [-]% of food?" Fang Qing asked curiously when he saw that these people were dressed in rags.

"Grandma, my little ones have a large population and few fields, so they basically live on [-]% of the grain." The three tenants said cautiously when they saw her asking this question.

Fang Qing frowned after hearing what they said. Although she is not a kind person, she also hopes that these people can take good care of her field.

Fang Qing tapped his fingers on the table and said, "I will take back three acres of paddy fields, three acres of medium fields, and other fields as usual. I hope you guys take good care of the fields. I will give you [-]% of your future rent."

These three women are all cousins. Just now they heard that Fang Qing took back the six acres of land, and thought that the days to come would be sad again. Before they were sad, they heard what Fang Qing said, and the three of them immediately saluted Fang Qing gratefully.

"Grandma Fang, the three of us sisters are grateful for your great kindness."

Fang Qing looked at the woman with red eyes, and thought of the conditions of her husband's family. Seeing such three people, she walked forward and helped the man who bent over to salute.

"I'm not the kind of stingy person. As long as the fields are well served, I won't lose your rent."

"Thank you, Aunt Fang, thank you, Aunt Fang."

The three sisters of the Chen family made peace with Fang Qing, and after this batch of grain was harvested, the other three mu of paddy fields and other medium-sized fields were handed over, and the three left in a hurry.

Zhang Xin originally thought that Fang Qing would not take back the field, and she was about to persuade Fang Qing to take back a few acres of land and plant it by herself, but before she could open her mouth, the girl consciously said that she would take back six acres.

"You and Brother Lin will be busy in the future."

Fang Qing sighed and said, "I don't want to plant either. It's not that Brother Lin insists on keeping a few acres."

Seeing Fang Qing sighing, Zhang Xin laughed out loud. "You and Brother Lin have nothing to do, just plant a few acres of land.

Fang Qing said a few words to Zhang Xin, and after Zhang Xin left, he and she went to the field to find Zhang Zelin, and heard voices from the field in the distance.

"Brother Lin, your calf ran away again...?"

Zhang Ren and Fu Lang were harvesting wheat in the field. Seeing her nephew pulling a cow to graze, she picked up a piece of wheat and asked her nephew to put the cow in her field. Two cows and a horse grazing in the field were spectacular. Before she could take a second look, her nephew's calf started running around.

Zhang Zelin had just chased the calf back, and just as his second aunt was cleaning up the wheat, he saw the calf running out again, and he stood up anxiously to chase after him.

When Fang Qing came to the field, he saw his husband chasing the calf everywhere, and the bull lowing beside him.

"Wife master, help me stop the calf quickly?" Zhang Zelin saw the wife master in the field and hurriedly called for help.

Fang Qing saw that the calf was running so fast that it was difficult to catch him. When the calf ran towards her and turned a corner, her figure flashed and quickly pressed down on the calf's head.

"Ouch! I'm exhausted. My wife, you didn't know that the calf came out. I chased him back and ran around." Zhang Zelin bent over and took a breath to complain to his wife. It was also because he bent over and ran, not paying attention to Fang Qing The action just now.

Fang Qing took the calf and led Zhang Zelin to Zhang Ren.

"Hehe! The calf is bound to be happier when it comes out on the first day. You should tie it with a rope so that it can't run away."
