Chapter 59

Xiaoye's words made Yang Liu curl her lips, yes, the Bai family did treat her well, but Bai Xiangchen was an exception.

In my impression, Bai Xiangchen seemed to have never been nice to her. It was the first time that the two of them could even speak a few words calmly last night.
As soon as Xiaoye finished speaking, the door of the room where Bai Xiangchen lived opened suddenly, and then Bai Xiangchen came out yawning, Xiaoye smiled at Bai Xiangchen: "Hey, brother-in-law, you are up too? Did we wake you up by talking?" ?”

Seeing Bai Xiangchen coming out, Mrs. Cao quickly put down the broom in her hand, looked at Bai Xiangchen and said, "Xiangchen, why don't you go back to sleep, let's talk in the room."

Facing Mrs. Cao, Bai Xiangchen was polite. He hurriedly put away his yawning gesture and smiled at Mrs. Cao: "It's okay, auntie, I'll wake up around this time when I'm home."

After a slight pause, he added inexplicably: "Usually when Liu Er gets up, I get up too.

I don't know whether Bai Xiangchen is out of his head or has some other intentions. He added such a sentence carefully, which immediately changed the expressions of Cao Shi and others.

After listening to Bai Xiangchen's words, Mrs. Cao glanced at him, and then at Yangliu, the expression on his face flickered, he didn't know whether it was joy or worry.

That girl, Xiaocao, didn't think there was anything wrong with her words. She looked up at Bai Xiangchen and asked, "Ah? Brother-in-law, you and your sister slept in the same bed at your house? Then why didn't you sleep with your eldest sister last night?" Together, the three of us slept last night, the bed was too narrow, but it squeezed me to death."

"This..." Bai Xiangchen didn't reply.

In fact, Bai Xiangchen just heard Xiaocao ask Yang Liu in the room if the Bai family treated Yang Liu badly. His purpose of saying those words was to tell the Yang family that the Bai family did not treat Yang Liu badly. Well, even waking up in the morning, there is no difference between Yang Liu and their Bai family.

But unexpectedly being misunderstood by the girl Xiaocao, Bai Xiangchen couldn't explain it, so he had to look at Yang Liu embarrassingly, implying to let Yang Liu speak.

Yang Liu glanced at the short-circuited white tiger, and explained to Cao Shi and the others with a busy smile: "He meant that when we were in Bai's house, our whole family got up at this time, and I was there with his two younger sisters. Live in one house."

"Oh." After Cao Shi heard this, she responded lightly, and the expression on her face relaxed a lot.

As far as the Cao family is concerned, if Yang Liuzhen and Bai Xiangchen are husband and wife, she can accept it, but in her heart, she still hopes that before Yang Liu and Ji, her family can take Yang Liu back, and then marry in a beautiful manner. The Bai family, then Yang Liu's status in the Bai family will be higher in the future, and life will be much easier.

Seeing that Bai Xiangchen had gotten up, Yang Liu planned to go to Mrs. Zhao's house by the way before breakfast, and ask Mrs. Zhao to go to the top of the mountain to have a look first.

She first asked Bai Xiangchen to wash up in Guowu, and then told Mrs. Cao to take Bai Xiangchen out for a walk, and the two of them took Xiaocao out together.

When Xiaocao brought them to Zhao's house, the Zhao family got up early, saying that Yang Manfu had left early with his two eldest sons, and only Zhao and the youngest son San'er were at home.

San'er was only three years old this year, and she was round and chubby. She probably saw few strangers at ordinary times, and she was a bit of a stranger. When she saw Yangliu and the others coming in, she burst into tears and begged for Mrs. Zhao to hug her.
Mrs. Zhao greeted Yang and Liu to enter the yard, and asked them to sit in the yard first, and she carried San'er into the house to coax them.

Yang Liu sat in the courtyard and casually looked around the Zhao family's courtyard. The area of ​​the Zhao family's house may not be much larger than that of Yang Liu's house, but the house is much nicer.

Several houses are built with better blue bricks, and the roofs are also fully paved with tiles, and each roof is specially paved with a few pieces of bright tiles. The sun shines into the house through the bright tiles, and people can watch It's bright and dignified, not at all dark and damp like Yangliu's house.
Moreover, the house was cleaned very clean, and there were everything that should be in the house. Looking at it like this, Mrs. Zhao's family situation is a bit better than his own.
It seems that apart from being hot-tempered and occasionally unreasonable, Mrs. Zhao is also a housekeeper. It is no wonder why Mrs. Zhao treats her third uncle too much, but the third uncle Yang Manfu not only did not complain at all, but He was also subdued by Zhao Shiguan.

After all, no matter what this woman does, it is for the good of the family. As long as the family is good, Yang Manfu is also willing to be controlled.
Bai Xiangchen at the side also noticed it, he approached Yang Liu, and whispered: "Your third uncle's family is richer than yours, and this house is much better than yours."

Yang Liu nodded in accordance with his words, and then replied flatly to Bai Xiangchen: "If your family doesn't pay back the 30 taels from my house, my house must be better than my third uncle's house."

Bai Xiangchen glanced at Yang Liu, imitating Yang Liu's tone of voice, and said softly: "Vulgar, what you talk about is money."

When Yang Liu heard the word vulgar from Bai Xiangchen's mouth, she felt it was funny, she raised her eyebrows, and said: "Well, there's no way, I'm so vulgar."

Seeing Bai Xiangchen's expression that he got what he said, Yang Liu suddenly changed the subject: "But I don't think you are vulgar, you should be the kind of person who treats money like dirt, then I owe you the 30 taels you should You won't be chasing after me to pay it back, will you?"

"..." Bai Xiangchen fell silent.

Yang Liu glanced at it with extreme disdain, and most disliked this kind of person who keeps talking about money by himself, but blames others for being vulgar when they occasionally mention money once or twice.
Yang Liu sat in Zhao's courtyard and continued to look around. Seeing that the beams of Zhao's house were still covered with sorghum, she asked Zhao, "Third Aunt, why don't you sell your sorghum?"

Mrs. Zhao just coaxed San'er to come out of the house, looked up at the sorghum on the roof beam, and said with a smile: "Well, it's not for sale. When the sorghum was harvested a while ago, someone came to our village to collect sorghum. I looked at it." The price is low, it’s not worth selling, and I haven’t sold it since then, I thought I’d better wait until the weather is cold, and I’ll work harder to make wine and sell it.”

"Brewing?" Yang Liu was a little curious.
Mrs. Zhao nodded, and replied: "Yes, every year when the weather is cold, many men in our village like to drink two cups. The wine they buy in the town is very expensive. If I can brew some wine, maybe in Our village can sell all the sorghum, and it will definitely make more money than selling sorghum alone."

"Moreover, after the sorghum is threshed, the sorghum can be used to make wine, and the sorghum poles can also be used as brooms. With so many poles, some brooms can be made, and they can be sold at that time. Although they can't be sold for much money, the selling point is Some, even if I exchange two packs of candy for my family San'er."

When Yang Liu was in Bai's house, he often went with He Hua and the others to make wine for Bai Zhengqi and Bai Jixiang. She remembered that the wine here seemed not expensive, and you could buy a pot in a big porcelain jar for five Wen. Did you make money?
Thinking about it, she asked Mrs. Zhao: "I don't think the wine sold in the town is expensive. Can this homemade wine make money?"

"Silly girl, you are heretic." Mrs. Zhao pouted and smiled, and told Yang Liu: "Think about it, you buy wine in the town, the shops in the town ask for money, and the shop hires people to do the work." If you want money, the government has to collect taxes, and the boss still needs to earn some money. If we do it ourselves, we don’t need to pay for these things. If you think about it, we can make money with just these few items, let alone add that. The boss who sells things earns extra money."
"That's true." Yang Liu nodded.
Looking at Mrs. Zhao, Yang Liu felt that she really underestimated Mrs. Zhao. This Mrs. Zhao not only has good brains, but also has some business sense. At least she thinks farther than ordinary people. It seems that what she said about the mountain Should not be wrong.

After staying at Zhao's house for a while, Zhao coaxed San'er well, and let Xiaocao watch San'er at home, and she took Yang Liu and Bai Xiangchen to the top of the mountain.

Looking at the top of the mountain, Yang Liu realized that he had underestimated the size of the mountain. Although it was only a small part of the mountain in the village, the combined area of ​​the three families was not small. As big as several acres of land.

In addition, the several of them are located in the front row, and the hill next to them is their own sandy land, which is almost as wide as ten acres of land together, and it looks like a big area.

Although Yang Liu is not proficient in such things as soil quality, but looking at the wild fruits growing on some trees on the mountain, he also knows that it is absolutely no problem to plant fruit trees on this mountain. In addition, the terrain is neither high nor low, so it is also suitable for farming. , but if you really want to build it all up, there is still a little less land here. It would be great if you could cover all this mountain.

Thinking about it, Yang Liu asked Mrs. Zhao: "Aunt San, did the village head tell you that if we plant trees according to his instructions, how much will your harvest be in a few years?"

Mrs. Zhao thought for a while, then curled her lips and said: "How much can there be? It's a few hundred Wen a year, maybe there will be no two hundred Wen at that time. If you don't get the money, what anyone says won't count." .”

Yang Liu thought for a while, and then asked: "Then you said, if we lease this mountain with the people in the village, and each person pays them [-] Wen a year for rent, will they be willing to rent the entire mountain to us? "

Mrs. Zhao didn't react at first, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, why not? They can't earn this money by themselves?"

But when she realized that something was wrong, she turned her head and looked at Yang Liu in amazement and asked, "Liu Er, are you going to take down this mountain? Where did you get the money from? What are you doing with such a big mountain? We are developing the mountain top, but we are just trying it out, but we dare not boldly say that we want to build a mountain top..."

As expected, Mrs. Zhao is a sensitive person, Yang Liu just asked such a question hypothetically, she had already thought about a lot of things, and Yang Liu's enthusiasm was almost shattered by her repeated questions.

But fortunately, Yang Liu has never been a person who is afraid of facing difficulties. On the contrary, if she is determined to do something well, the more difficult the task is, the more challenging she feels and the more she wants to do it.

 Begging for a little fan, oh, oh, no one cares about me, so happy...
