Chapter 54

Shen Chengguang went back to the East Wing with a dark face. Mr. Shen sighed softly in his heart and shook his head. After the family division, even the two most honest sons had their own thoughts and did things that were obedient and obedient.I used to see that the two daughters-in-law were the most filial and obedient, but now it seems that it is not easy to handle, at least you can't say anything about this matter.Moreover, the third son's family bought so much wasteland all at once, and he was kept in the dark as a father. Why didn't the son dare to tell his father how much land he bought?Are you worried about being taken over?Mr. Shen was very worried. Could it be that he was wrong in thinking about making Dafang's family rich first and then driving the other sons to live a better life?
In other words, Mr. Shen thought too much this time. Shen Chengyao didn't say it before because he was really busy and forgot, but when he said it that night, he said it vaguely because he felt that the time was wrong. At that time, it was not long before Shen Zhuang's riot In less than an hour, and buying so much wasteland at one time, even the village chief didn't agree, not to mention his parents, he didn't want to be scolded, and he thought in his heart that the wasteland he bought this time would definitely make a lot of money, but it didn't help The unfounded self-confidence of one's own child cannot convince others, only thinking about facts to prove everything.

Seeing Shen Chengguang angrily returning to the east wing, Shen Zhuang asked, "What's the matter? What did the village chief say?"

Mr. Shen didn't hide anything, and told the whole story. When Shen Zhuang heard this, he immediately threw away the sewing basket in his hand, and was about to get off the kang to settle accounts with Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lu.

Mr. Shen held her back, "Okay, what are you doing, you're making a fuss regardless, and it's Chengguang and Wen'er's face to lose face! If you make a fuss, what Chengguang just got over has been done in vain. Let everyone know whether Wen'er will be an official in the future." Alas, this study is the most costly, why doesn't the old third know how to help his brother.

Mrs. Shen Zhuang still listened to the old man very much, but the anger in her heart could not be calmed down. Thinking that it was Mrs. Liu's turn to cook today, she had to be tempered no matter what.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.Some villagers came over and asked Mrs. Liu if it is okay to start land reclamation now. Mrs. Liu nodded, "Yes, our family bought the wasteland on both sides of the road at the head of the village. Everyone can go to reclaim land now, but you have to bring your own farm tools. Fifty cents One mu, after opening, ask me to check it out, and I can give you money immediately if you pass the customs.”

After hearing that, you can open up wasteland now, and everyone will stop talking. Hurry up and sign up in line and go home to get farm tools. Those who go first can pick a better piece of land to open, and save some effort and time. Open up more land.

Most of the villagers in this era are not afraid of being tired or suffering, but they are afraid that there will be no work to do and no food to eat.They believe that human strength is inexhaustible, but many times even if they are willing to exert their strength to make money, there is no way.Five days later, almost every household had at least one person to do hard labor, and now they are hurrying to work. It can be said that the whole family, old and young, all went to battle.

Mrs. Liu and the three daughters-in-law were talking on the sidelines.

"Daughter-in-law Chengyao, your family's salary is too high. If you ask me, many people will do it if you pay thirty or forty renminbi. Now it's the slack season, and most people are at home." Dashi's daughter-in-law said in a low voice. He said that Mrs. Liu had asked her to help open up wasteland before, and she agreed without saying a word. She didn't say anything about the salary. She was really shocked when she heard that it was fifty yuan per mu.

Dashu's wife also nodded. "Your family is at a loss for such a high salary. Our family will work for you for a few days without receiving wages. Anyway, if you are idle at home, you are idle."

Mrs. Liu smiled, "How can this be, everyone else has given it, and I won't give less of yours. That girl Xiao'er said that the wages should be paid more, everyone should work harder, and we can hurry up." Open up the land, just as a favor to the folks, and accumulate some blessings."

After hearing this, the blessed daughter-in-law praised: "Xiao'er girl has a good heart and is capable, sister-in-law, you are blessed."

"Xiao'er is an idea. She is so capable at such a young age. She is the first in our village." Because they have a good relationship with Mrs. Liu, they usually go to wash clothes with Mrs. Liu, so they know her family Most of the land purchase money was earned by Xiaoer selling pictures.

"Maybe it's true that if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed. Before Xiao'er fell her head and almost died, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep for several nights. I didn't expect to wake up smarter than before." Thinking of the previous events, Liu felt distressed.

"I think sister-in-law, your luck is still great. Your family Jingrui and Jinghao are also good. You can see that Jingrui was not nervous at all when he spoke just now. He looks better than you as the head of the family."

"Children don't know what it means to be afraid, unlike us adults who can't hide their faces."

At this time, a young daughter-in-law walked up to Mrs. Liu and said weakly, "Sister-in-law Liu, I also want to sign up, can I?"

Seeing that she was the one, Mrs. Liu said enthusiastically, "It's Wenhui, of course it's okay, I'll count you in later."

"Thank you sister-in-law Liu, then I will go to open up wasteland now." Xu Wenhui said in a low voice, but Mrs. Liu heard it and nodded.

"Oh, poor child, she's still so young, she's really wronged." Mrs. Liu said with pity as she watched her disappearing figure.

This young daughter-in-law was named Xu Wenhui, and she reconciled with her husband after two years of marriage. It turned out that she married a scholar.When Xiucai Niang heard about it, she divorced her on the pretext that she had nothing to do after two years of marriage.But Xu Wenhui disagreed. The Minze Dynasty stipulated that a wife could only be divorced after three years of marriage. She did not agree to be divorced, but she was willing to reconcile and divorce. Xiucai agreed. After all, both divorce and divorce are the same for him.

Xu Wenhui returned to her natal family, her elder brother and sister-in-law couldn't tolerate her, and her only mother was also sad and angry because of her incident, her bad health got worse, and she passed away within a year.Then she was kicked out by her sister-in-law.It was the village head who took pity on her and gave her a piece of land, and asked several men in the village to build her a thatched house and surround a yard, so that she had a place to stay.Usually, she makes ends meet by doing some needlework and growing vegetables in the yard of the thatched cottage to sell.

Now she is only 19 years old, and she is not yet 20 years old, and she has started to live a widow's life. Because of her reputation of being peaceful and divorced, people in the village rarely get in touch with her, and her sister-in-law exaggerates how lazy she is. However, under the petty theft, she lived a life of being pointed at by others every day, so her courage became less and less.

"She was right about Heli. She was a very good girl before. It's all because of her bad luck. Otherwise, she wouldn't be like this if she married a good one." Dashi's wife shook her head and sighed.

"The husband-in-law before her is really not a person!" Blessed daughter-in-law said angrily.

"The woman's family is the second reincarnation. Let's choose a husband's house for our daughter in the future. We must inquire about it." Dashu's wife couldn't help but wake up when she thought that her daughter was ten years old. Well, a lifetime is too long, if you marry someone who is not good, how will you live.

The four of them changed the topic and talked about other things, when a sharp voice came in: "Hey, third sibling, you are keeping it a secret. You bought so much land, at least it costs two or three hundred taels." , Asking someone to give you a high salary of 300 Wen per mu, you paid it, why do you always hide it at home?"

"What did the second sister-in-law say? The child's father has already told his parents that we bought wasteland to open up wasteland and build a house."

Yesterday, she also knew that Sanfang’s family had bought wasteland to build a house, but she didn’t know that they bought so much. The 80 mu of wasteland, plus the two hills, add up to at least 200 mu, which costs two to three hundred taels. Only then can we win it, where did the third family get so much money?It really made her scratch her lungs with envy and jealousy.

"Which family has money that is not hidden. Could it be that your family's money is distributed?" The blessed daughter-in-law can't get used to people like Li Shi the most, and she has had some small feuds with her before, so she can't bear it. Live and stab back.

"It's none of your business if I talk to Mrs. Liu, go aside and don't meddle in other people's business."

"Isn't it because we are talking here first and you intervene, so that I will see the wrong way!"

……

The two quarreled.

At this time, Xiao'er took a list of registrations and Jing Rui came over, "Mother, everyone has registered their names, let's go to the village to see the situation, aunties, are you going?"

"Go, why don't you go." Blessed daughter-in-law replied loudly, and then left without even looking at Li Shi.

"Second sister-in-law, are you going?" Mrs. Liu asked Mrs. Li who was about to start scolding just now.

Seeing that the blessed daughter-in-law had left, Mrs. Li snorted, "No!"

Mrs. Li saw that Aunt Wang and some women in the village were not knowing what they were talking about, so she planned to listen to them. Those people were the gossip experts in the village, and now they could talk or have something new.
