Chapter 56
"When the fields are sold out, you can only sell your children and yourself." As he said this, he showed a look of disgust and pity.

As for those landowners who are ruthless and rich and use dirty tricks to force people to sell their land, it is hard to talk to a little kid who is only a few years old.

“Later on, when times got better, such large-scale land sales rarely happened anymore.”

"Then where did the landlords buy the land from?" Jiang Jinyu asked expectantly.

"Not all descendants of landlords can become talented. There are always some young masters who have contracted bad habits and have to make a living by selling their property." Jiang Mingshun said casually.

Jiang Jinyu's eyes lit up and he was about to speak.

Jiang Mingshun immediately interrupted her: "Don't think about it. They sell land for dozens or hundreds of acres, and they have to settle the account at once."

He flicked his head on Jiang Jinyu's forehead: "Don't even think about it. I can't even afford your father if I sell him!"

After saying that, he carried the hoe and walked out the door.

Jiang Jinyu held her head and fell into deep thought, so there was still not enough money!

The old house is also discussing this year's spring plowing.

"Our own land will still be planted as in previous years." Jiang Yongsheng sat on the main seat, holding the smoke pot in his hand and playing with it slowly.

Although there are a lot less fields this year, the number of people in the family is even smaller. Planting according to the practice of previous years will not make the whole family hungry.

In addition, Tremella has been added as an input. This will not only make up for the reduced field output, but also add an additional income.

Jiang Yongsheng took a puff of cigarette comfortably and felt that there would never be such a good day again.

When Yang heard this, he frowned.

Now that the family has been divided, the "our family's land" the old man mentioned naturally does not include Jiang Mingyao's share. There is no reason for the son who has been divided to ask me to help arrange farming.

But Jiang Mingyao and his wife are different. They are not accustomed to doing farm work. Now that they have moved to the town, they don't know if they can even think of spring plowing.

Ordinarily, this matter should not be left to her as an elderly woman, but Yang could not let go of her little son who had been smarter than other children in the village since he was a child.

However, she glanced at Mrs. Liu, who was busy working in the room under the pretense of sweeping the floor, but was actually eavesdropping, and suppressed what she was about to say.

It's true that she prefers her younger son, but that doesn't mean she dislikes her eldest son.

That was her eldest son, the son who died after being thrown into a basin by her. How could she not value him?

It was just that the family separation suddenly happened before, and Ms. Yang was caught off guard. Seeing that her most promising youngest son was about to go away, she only thought about treating her younger son better in order to win his heart. , but he somewhat neglected his eldest son.

Now that Mrs. Yang had regained her composure, she decided to snatch her son back from Ms. Liu. In this way, Ms. Liu would no longer be given the opportunity to sow discord between mother and son.

It's better to talk privately.

"But, Dad," Jiang Minghui scratched his head and said, "I am the only one working in the fields this year, so I won't be able to do a lot of work."

"There's not even a man to help the plow."

"Isn't there a mule?" Jiang Yongsheng knocked the edge of the table with his smoking pot dissatisfied.

Of course he knew what his son was saying was reasonable, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Oh, then is it possible that a family with only one male will not be able to farm?

Jiang Yongsheng is naturally not afraid of going to work in the fields. He is an old man. Even as he gets older, he can still follow the autumn harvest. However, being urged to go to the fields by his son, it is inevitable that he will have some thoughts. "Yes," Jiang Minghui nodded quickly for fear of being scolded: "I didn't expect it."

He really didn't understand why his father was angry again. He just thought that the older the old man got, the worse his temper would become, so he decided to let him forget it.

did not expect?Unexpectedly, Jiang Yongsheng became even more angry after hearing this. He immediately said: "What's the use of your brain? Everyone knows how to borrow mules and oxen to plow the land. You are better off because you don't know how to use your own."

"If it's so hopeless, how will you support this family in the future?"

"You've been waiting for me for a hundred years, who are you going to look for for attention?"

The more Jiang Yongsheng talked, the more uncomfortable he became. This was his eldest son. How could he grow up to be so incapable of taking on things?

He is obedient, but he is too obedient. He listens to his father, his mother, his wife, and his elder brother, but he does not listen to himself. He stays in a daze and muddles along all day long.

Yang knew what the old man meant as soon as she heard it, and was immediately shocked. She gave birth to Jiang Minghui, and she must not let people think that the son she gave birth to was a bad one.

She winked at Jiang Minghui, poured a bowl of water for Jiang Yongsheng, and said warmly: "There is no way you would be so angry."

"For the first few decades, Minghui was raised by me as a little son. Didn't you tell me at that time that we, Minghui, just need to grow up healthy and healthy as we have parents and a brother?"

"Now he is suddenly asked to be the master of the family. If you, the father, don't teach him, who else can teach him?"

Yang looked at Jiang Minghui who had not moved yet, sighed secretly, coughed lightly and said: "Minghui, come here and admit your mistake to your father. Promise to learn from it in the future and stand up as soon as possible. Let us do the same." Mom and dad enjoy the happiness."

"Yes, yes," Jiang Minghui stumbled and said, "Father, mother, I will definitely learn from my father in the future and never let him worry about me again."

It's really not as good as this, Yang thought to herself, if Mingyao was Mingyao, he would have started to be sweet and obedient by now. There is no way that father and son could have an overnight feud.

Thinking of this, Yang couldn't help feeling bitter.

She is also a very old person. Her parents-in-law left soon after she was married in her early years. She is the eldest sister-in-law and the daughter-in-law who took care of her parents-in-law in their old age. She did not suffer any injustice even after giving birth to two daughters in the first few years.

After Yang herself became a mother-in-law, she took care of all the big and small things. Naturally, she had her daughter-in-law and granddaughters to work for her.

How can I imagine that when I get older, I have to worry about being accused of not giving birth to my son well, and work hard to be the peacemaker.

She couldn't blame her son or the man, so she could only vent her anger on her daughter-in-law: "My second son, you should be more sensible."

"In the past, there were so many people, so it's okay for you to be lazy. After all, our family is not one that expects to treat our wives harshly."

"But right now, your man is the only one with a strong labor force. You really need to go to the field to help him more."

"If you don't feel bad for your own man, who can you expect to help you feel bad for him?"

When Mrs. Liu was about to speak, Mrs. Yang immediately changed the topic and said, "In that case, Mrs. Bai is actually a good person."

"I used to help Minghui with work when I was at home, and there was no doubt about spring plowing and autumn harvest."

"From the second child's family," she glanced at Mrs. Liu meaningfully: "You have been the best in everything since you got married."

"But when it comes to hard work and hard work, you are not as good as your sister-in-law."

Mrs. Liu promised, secretly she almost broke her teeth.

She is not a fool, so she naturally understands that her mother-in-law is using Bai Shi to provoke her. She is not afraid of provocation, but hates her for making her look bad in front of the whole family.
