Take the whole family through the library

Chapter 48

Instead of letting the big family of the Lin family be poor, they often come to their own house to play the autumn breeze.Simply, it is better to hold up the big house of the Lin family and send the Buddha to the west directly.According to the temperament of Lin Dafu's big family, the Lin family village is absolutely unbearable.If you make a fortune with one move, you will move out sooner or later.I'm afraid that in this small city of Luochuan County, the eldest family of the Lin family might not like it.Lin Sanfu completely trained Dalang according to the diaosi counterattack drama.

After lunch, the second bedroom family of the Lin family arrived.Those who help write couplets write couplets, and those who help light fires.Lin Qiaoqiao led Lin Yan and Lin Zhaodi around the yard, looking at the Chinese cabbage growing in the vegetable field, as if returning to Linjia Village.

"Qiaoqiao's younger sister's house is big. I heard my uncle told my father that this house was originally two households, and they were forced to be connected into one household." Lin Zhaodi said.

"Hmm!" Lin Qiaoqiao responded with a grin.

"Is this pond raising fish?" Lin Yan asked curiously.

"It's gone. I said I would buy fish fry after the Chinese New Year. However, there are lotus root planted here." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

Lotus root was a precious thing in ancient times, and lotus root was not often served on the dining table of many wealthy families.In Luochuan County, only three or four big families planted lotus root in their yards.This lotus root was planted by the owner who sold the house a few years ago, and the pond has not been taken care of for many years.

"Wow~" Lin Zhaodi was envious.

Lin Yan's eyes were shining, and she said arrogantly. "At that time, I will come to your house to eat lotus root. I don't even know what it looks like when it grows so big. I just heard about it."

"Okay, okay. Feel free to come, the two sisters, and let you eat your fill. Fried lotus root cakes and lotus root stuffed dumplings." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

"This lotus root can also make dumplings." Lin Zhaodi said curiously.

"If you have a lot of lotus root, you can grind it into lotus root powder, it will be delicious." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

"Wouldn't it be a lot of money if we planted dozens of acres of lotus root," Lin Yan said.

"Eldest sister thinks beautifully. Can those rich masters know how to make money from lotus root? The essence of this lotus root is that ordinary people can't grow it. Otherwise, the whole world will be flooded with lotus root." Lin Zhaodi said.

"Is that so? Sister Qiaoqiao." Lin Yan lowered her face and asked humbly.

"Well. The imperial court has laws and regulations to control it. My father has the status of a child, and he went to the county government to make a note. The little official said that our family can only grow and eat at home. No takeaway or gift. Moreover, this pond is also allowed to eat. The little official has seen it, and the little official said that it is not too big, and there will be no fine if it does not exceed one mu of land. However, it is best not to make it public. Because the quota of lotus root planting in each county is also controlled." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

"It's just a dish, why is it so troublesome!" Lin Yan muttered.

"I don't know either. Who knows what the law stipulates. I also heard from the little official that not only lotus root, but also many things are restricted. In short, it seems to be the reason for high and low." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

"I know something about this, like the untouchables who are not allowed to wear gold and silver." Lin Yan said with bright eyes.

"Whatever it is, it's Chinese New Year, let's talk about something happy." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

Lin Yan saw a peach tree planted in a corner of the backyard.Lin Yan pointed at the peach tree and said. "Sister Qiaoqiao, peaches are not tasty. Why do you plant peach trees in your family? It takes up more space."

"The ones grown in my family are delicious. This is a grafted variety. When the peaches are ready, I will pick them and give them to you to try." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

"I don't believe it, peaches are not tasty. It's just that the flowers are beautiful when they are in bloom. I will go wandering by myself, and I won't go with you." Lin Yan ran away with a face of disbelief, and went wandering alone.

Lin Zhaodi smiled apologetically, "Eldest sister has that temperament, sister Qiaoqiao, don't worry about it. Eldest sister is actually not bad-hearted."

"She's not bad, she's just short-sighted!" Lin Qiaoqiao said.

Lin Zhaodi burst out laughing. "Why isn't there any vegetable planted in the empty space over there?" Lin Zhaodi asked.When farmers see some vacant land, they always want to plant something.

"For grandma, grandma said she wanted to raise chickens, ducks and geese. There are only so many places, so grandpa said that we can raise two or three of each. Our family can also have eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs to eat. And if there are too many, there is nothing to feed them. , the city is no better than the countryside, let them go to the mountains and ignore them." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

"Yes. But, will it disturb the neighbors?" Lin Zhaodi said.

"No, my grandma said that one rooster and two hens will not disturb anyone. Ducks and geese only keep one pair. If it is really too noisy, they will kill them and eat them." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

The two sisters strolled in the courtyard and chatted.At this time, Lin Yan, who left, went and returned.Lin Yan looked unhappy, "The uncle's family is here."

"Come here when you come, and you don't need the three of us to accompany the guests." Lin Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

Lin Zhaodi said, "Our Lin family is not separated, and grandpa and grandma are celebrating the New Year at my uncle's house. Uncle naturally wants to come over for a reunion dinner."

Lin Yan gave Lin Qiaoqiao a white look, "Go to the front room and take a look, you didn't see that the carriages of the uncle's house are all in the alley."

This is how many carriages he brought, which can make Lin Yan say that the alleys are full of carriages of big houses.When buying a carriage, the carriage is not expensive, the key is to be right away.Horses are not easy to buy, and the purchase of horses and cattle needs to be registered with the county government.The only place to sell horses in Luochuan County is in Beicheng.It seems to be called Xiaoji Car and Horse Company, and I heard people in the city discuss it privately.Ordinary people can't drive a car at all, like Shi Wenhao, who is rich but has no power, he can't drive.

As for the Xiao family's business, it is mostly a gray area, such as gambling houses and brothels are the main industries.There has always been a saying in Luochuan County that it is better to offend the county magistrate than to offend the Xiao family.Most of the Xiao family's business is in the North City, and ordinary people seldom go there when they have nothing to do.

"What?" Lin Qiaoqiao was a little confused.

Lin Yan grabbed Lin Qiaoqiao's arm and ran to the front room. "You go and see with me, you will know." Lin Yan said.

"Sister, wait a minute, I'll lock the backyard door." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

Lin Zhaodi and Lin Yan waited for Lin Qiaoqiao to lock the courtyard door, and then the three went to the gate to find out.I saw that the narrow alley was crowded with carriages.And there are one or two servants waiting beside each carriage to guard the carriage.

upstart!Proper nouveau riche style.

"How much money did you earn?" Lin Zhaodi opened her mouth in surprise, with a look of astonishment.

Those servants all had high eyes and low hands, as if they didn't see the three of them.There were even people who looked contemptuous.When the three returned to the house, they saw Lin Tie who came to look for the three of them.

"Sister Qiaoqiao, it's not good. Grandpa and uncle are fighting, and grandma is also beating someone." Lin Tie said.

"Ah!" Lin Yan said.
