How to survive in poverty: I use a simulator to farm

Chapter 28 Reach out and give me a hand

When Chen Yixuan in front of him asked him to take his son to the ground with them tomorrow, Chen Yixing smiled stiffly and nodded.

"Okay, let's go to work in the fields tomorrow."

Chen Yixing's son Wang Jihe is only 11 years old this year.His body is usually weak, but his parents and grandparents protected him from death during this journey.

Now that their family of three has arrived here and has a temporary place to stay, Wang Jihe doesn't want to hold his father back, so he doesn't complain.

A few bowls of fish soup can't fill your stomach.

Since Chen Yixing's family of three came today, Chen Feiyan took the initiative and cooked a sumptuous dinner for the whole family.

More than ten kilograms of marinated fish, more than a kilogram of radishes, two taels of leeks, three kilograms of grains...

The earthenware jar at home is very large, the kind of black jar used to pickle sauerkraut at home. It is more than enough to cook more than ten kilograms of food.

After the fish, meat and grain porridge was cooked, Chen Feiyan added the last two tablespoons of lard to it.

After mixing the lard evenly, Chen Feiyan first brought a large bowl full to her husband, Chen Yixuan.

Smelling this fragrance, Chen Yixing's mouth watered.

Before he could speak, Chen Feiyan served a large bowl of thick porridge to her sons.

Then, she left two bowls for herself and her daughter before serving porridge to Chen Yixing and his family.

Wang Yingying knew that her family was still living in the Chen family, so she didn't dare to make any demands.But at this moment, Chen Yixing felt that his sister-in-law was ignorant.

Men are here, whatever you say should be respected by men!

Even though Chen Yixing was just a son-in-law, during the years he stayed in the Wang family, he lived the most comfortable and unrestrained life.

All the money in the family is spent on him first, and the best things in the house are spent on him first.

Except for the hardships he suffered in Jiangnan and the hardships on the way back to his hometown, he spent the rest of the time enjoying the blessings.

Seeing that his younger brother had no objections to what his sister-in-law did, Chen Yixing, who had many opinions in his heart, could only swallow his breath and decide to establish a firm foothold in this family.

……

A supper kept everyone full.

Everyone drank more than a pound of porridge and sat on the warm kang not wanting to move.

Noticing that his brother's family was living a pretty good life, Chen Yixing asked, "Brother, has our place always had good weather in the past few years?"

Chen Yixuan nodded. "good."

"Brother, if you can take good care of your health early, you can really go to the landlord Zhang's house and rent a few acres of land..."

"At that time, after paying the rent, you can still save some food to live in the winter. I can take you here for a while, but our family really doesn't have any extra food. In autumn, you may have to move out! Brother, I’m serious, you need to make arrangements in advance.”

Chen Yixing didn't want to anger his brother, so he nodded and said it. "Brother, I remember everything you said."

"I'll ask you to help me tomorrow by taking me to Landlord Zhang's house?"

Chen Yixuan nodded readily.

"Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow."

……

The kang is not very big, and there are three more members of the family on the kang. Chen Feiyan, who is sleeping next to the kang, feels very crowded.

If the whole family hadn't had time to gain a few pounds of meat, Chen Yixing wouldn't even have slept on the kang since he came here.Everyone gets up very early in the morning.After a hearty breakfast, Chen Yixuan took his brother to the local owner's house.

However, upon arriving at Landlord Zhang's house, his housekeeper asked Chen Yixuan's brother for the voucher.

After confirming that he was indeed from Chenjia Village, the housekeeper told them that the Zhang family's fields had long been tenanted by people from all villages.

On the way back, both brothers Chen Yixuan were a little unhappy.

If you can't farm the land as a tenant, you can't farm the land.

If you can't plant the land, you can't get food.

Without food, a family will starve to death.

Thinking that if his brother really hated him and watched his family die in cold blood, Chen Yixing suddenly made a plop and knelt straight in front of his brother Chen Yixuan.

"Brother, please help me think of a solution!"

"I want to live! I want my son to live too!"

"I only have one life now. If my family has to do hard labor or something, I will be sent to this family alone!! Brother, I beg you! Help me find a way!!"

When Chen Yixuan saw his brother, whom he had not seen for more than ten years, cornered and kowtowing violently to him, his heart was shaken again and he couldn't bear it.

I have heard it said before that when the parents are away, the eldest brother is the father and the eldest sister is the mother.Although my brother was very confused when he was young.

But, it is true that sin does not lead to death.

Thinking that he was the only man who could not support himself, and after marrying his wife, all his sons suffered seemingly coincidental "accidents". After much consideration, Chen Yixuan used great strength to save his brother Chen Yixing. Pulled up.

"Brother! Listen to me, now I want you to return to the Chen family. But your household registration book...if it shows that you are from the Wang family, then I can't think of anything. I can keep you for a year and a half at most. , if you stay in my house for too long, those people from Chenjiacun will bring people to our house, saying that you are from a foreigner and deliberately come to take advantage, and they will kick you out!"

Because this kind of thing happened in Chenjia Village in the past, Chen Yixuan said this with an embarrassed look.

Chen Yixing listened, his eyes sparkling.

"Brother, when I fled all the way back from Jiangnan, my wife's parents were already prepared. If they didn't survive the journey, my household registration would be returned to my place of origin. I was still the son of the Chen family. Back then, It’s not about getting married, it’s about marrying a wife…”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of yellow and thin paper from his chest, which was also stamped with the red seal of the Lin'an government official document.

"Documentary certificate from the Lin'an government? Brother, have you been living in Lin'an for the past ten years or so?"

Thinking that his biological mother and aunt used to live in Lin'an, Chen Yixuan asked a few more questions.

A hint of guilt flashed in Chen Yixing's eyes.Then he nodded fiercely.

"Isn't that right?! I followed my wife's father to do business in the Jiangnan area. I traveled around Lin'an and Suzhou."

Seeing that his brother was listening seriously, Chen Yixing bit the bullet and took the initiative to talk about Lin'an.

"The area of ​​Lin'an has been a prosperous place of commerce since ancient times. From south to north, there are salt merchants, cloth merchants and grain merchants everywhere..."

Chen Yixuan suddenly said, "Brother, do you know that there is a wealthy family named Zhang in Lin'an?"

"A wealthy family named Zhang?"

There are too many families named Zhang in Lin'an City.

He was originally engaged in cloth business and was somewhat famous in Suzhou. He had many dealings with some cloth merchants in Suzhou.Those who follow Lin'an City also know the head catcher Wang!
This household registration certificate was actually obtained by Mr. Qian Gu, a relative of his, who was the county magistrate of Lin'an City at that time, and got it for him.

He relied on this thing and was safe all the way back to his hometown.
