Yoyo Farming

Chapter 35

Tomorrow, I will go into the mountain with Xiaomi again, and I will have an excuse in the future, that is, if someone asks where I went into the mountain, I can tell it.

Youshuan started to do his embroidery work as usual, and Fu Niu cleaned the remaining fish and cooked it.There is oil at home, originally I wanted to make a braised fish, fried it and braised it with soy sauce.

Thinking that it would be better to have the shuan, or the fish soup is easy to digest and nutritious. Fu Niu asked you shuan, but still made the fish soup, put the rice on top of the fish soup and steamed it, which was much simpler. Use a small fire to let the fish soup bones simmer.

After dinner, the weather in summer is still bright, but the sunset glow appears in the sky, or red or red and yellow is very beautiful.Fu Niu was admiring the sunset in the yard, when she saw her fourth aunt coming over: "Fu Niu has eaten, let's go, there is something wrong, the folks are all at Liu Gen's house, I'm here to call you."

"Okay, Fourth Aunt, wait for me and call Youshuan." Fu Niu thought everyone was going to Liu Gen's house to comfort her, so she went inside and called Youshuan.Youshuan refused to go: "Sister, I'm watching money at home."

Fu Niu went by herself, and many people were sitting at Liu Gen's house. Liu Gen was a farmer in his 40s, smoking a pipe. Seeing that everyone had come, he said to everyone: "Make an appointment with everyone." Now, let’s talk about the land behind the house, four taels of silver this year is too much, and I’m afraid we won’t be able to grow the land if we want it.”

"The village chief shouldn't have done this. He shouldn't have pulled out the seedlings when they went to the ground." Another person spoke, and he was also the one who was pulled out by the village chief today.

Another person said: "Let me tell you, let's talk to the village head and ask him to reduce the money a little. If we give two taels of silver a year, our family can still get it out. This land has to be profitable. There have to be two people dedicated to tending it, if all the strong people go to the field, the only ones who work behind the house are old people and children, how many vegetables can be planted.”

Everyone had their own calculations, and they talked about it in a hurry, but they didn't agree on the specific amount of money to pay in the end, but they all made an appointment to go to the village chief's house.

Other people just went to watch the excitement, only the people behind the dozen or so houses on the hillside were really busy.If one person from a family goes out, there are more than a dozen people, plus those who hear the news and watch the excitement go out together, and it becomes a mighty group of people to go to the village head's house.

It was the first time for Fu Niu to come to the village chief's house. It was probably the most magnificent house in the village. There was a solid stone courtyard wall. There was a dog barking in the house. Liu Gen's family went up to knock on the door: "Village chief, I We've come to talk to you about something..."

Youshuan waited at home for Fu Niu to come back, and hurriedly came forward and asked, "What are you going to talk about?" Fu Niu told You Shuan, "Let's go to the village head's house and talk to the village head about something. I only pay three taels of silver per year, and the village chief doesn’t agree if I go any further.”

Speaking of going to the village chief's house once, Fu Niu was most impressed by the house of the village chief's house and the dogs raised by the village chief's house.Youshuan was overjoyed, and said: "Another tael of silver has been lowered, sister, let's talk again in a few days, will it be lowered by another tael?"

"It won't come down anymore." Fu Niu continued, "Liu Zhu, who lives in front, didn't expect to have money on his body today. He has already given the money."

It really surprised everyone. One person gave money, and the village chief recognized so much in three taels of silver this year.Fu Niu sighed and said, "You can't blame Liu Zhu, it's the season to grow vegetables and sell them for money, and people are also waiting to make money."

Although some people also have opinions on Liu Zhu.

The little birds on the table were kept in an old bamboo basket, and in the past two days they had grown a lot of fluff, and they were tied to it and covered with an old cloth. Smother the fire in the stove.

The room was not so hot. Fu Niu slept on the kang for a while and felt that she couldn't sleep. After washing her body, she was covered with sweat after a while. She ran outside to sit in the yard and felt cool. She decided to find a rag and spread it outside in the yard. Go to sleep and feel better.

After a while, Youshuan also came out, and lay down beside Fu Niu, wiping his sweat and saying, "It's really hot today." Fu Niu just laughed, "The yard outside has only cooled down a while ago, and the ground was still hot just now. of."

Turning his face to look at Youshuan, he said, "If I have money, I'll build a cool bed and put it outside here. I'll use bamboo. It's so comfortable to sleep at night."

"When we have money, let's plant the back land first. You are not allowed to waste money again this time." Youshuan looked at the stars in the sky, and Fu Niu's idea of ​​renting the back land moved Youshuan. Xin Xin: "It's so good. I don't have to worry about rain or cold weather. There will still be fish in the fish pond when it's cold."

Fu Niu has made up her mind: "For the first time, I won't give the village chief three taels of silver." She has been thinking about this matter all night, and she has already thought about it.

"What's the matter, sister, do you have a way to negotiate the money?" You Shuan sat up when he heard this.Fu Niu looked at You Shuan's inquiring face and smiled and said, "Money is inevitable, but at first I won't give it to him all at once. I will give him half of it first, and then stop paying the other half for half a year. Anyway, I won't be in arrears with him. "

Youshuan thinks this is a good idea: "That's okay, sister, plant the land earlier, I can do it at home, and I can take care of my home, so it's great that I don't have to travel a long way."

"Yes." Looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, Fu Niu said the same.The siblings chatted for a while about how to manage the land, and Fu Niu confessed to Youshuan: "I came back with my fourth aunt just now, and I said that I would go to the mountains for a few days and let my fourth aunt take care of you. You are here alone." At home, if you have anything, call Fourth Aunt."

With the second Han coming to steal openly at night, Fu Niu had to be careful in her heart, and You Shuan agreed, and the two slowly fell asleep.

In the morning, Youshuan woke up Fu Niu first: "Sister, wake up, it seems that someone is coming." She was sleeping on the ground in the yard, and she could hear footsteps coming over very clearly.

As expected, the footsteps stopped outside the courtyard, and it was the voice of Uncle Qin: "Fu Niu, let's go." Pass it to Fu Niu, and when you leave, don't forget to tell Uncle Qin: "My sister will trouble you."
