Li Han’s Little Farmer’s Wife from the Mountains

At this moment, Zhang Dayong, Zhang Eryong, and Zhang Jinfeng were all in the house. Seeing the old lady running out of desperation, no one stopped, or even persuaded him.

They have been living together for so many years, they know the old lady too well, just because of her selfish temperament, she is not willing to commit suicide if anyone commits suicide, that is, she bluffs and scares others.

Or, I was afraid that Dad would beat her again and ran away with an excuse; Or, I was afraid that Dad would ask her for bead flowers, so he ran out and hid under the excuse of seeking death!

When the little baby in Li's arms saw his grandpa beat his grandmother, he was so frightened that he cried, and the older one was so scared that he started crying, and Li took the opportunity to take the child back to the room.

Anyway, the most exciting scene has been seen, and there is no point in staying here. When she left, she winked at her man, Zhang Dayong saw his wife winking at him, and hurried away with her.

Old Zhang Tou, Zhang Eryong, and Zhang Jinfeng were left in the room. Old Zhang sat on the kang angrily and said to Zhang Jinfeng, "I know this from beginning to end. You don’t need to hide it from me anymore. That's it, just the old shameless ran away, so you can tell me honestly, where did the old thing put the flowers?"

Zhang Jinfeng saw that her old mother was not there, and the uneven distribution of the spoils between her old mother and her, she was holding her breath. Now when Dad pressed her to ask her, he didn't hesitate to tell her about the old mother's selling bead flowers. Up.

After finishing speaking, I didn’t forget to spit out her old mother, "Father, my mother can do it. She sold sixty taels of silver, so she bought me such a small pair of earrings. Look, you don’t get snotty scum. Big."

After she shook her head, the two small earrings slid around her square face.

When Lao Zhangtou heard that Cui had sold Shen Ruolan’s beads, his temples were so angry that he gnashed his teeth for a while, suddenly raised his leg on the Kang, and lifted Cui’s sleeping pillow from the Kang cabinet. Take it down.

Then he tore off the pillow skin with a click, and the buckwheat noodles inside the pillow were immediately exposed in front of his eyes. He pulled the two corners of the pillow and pushed the torn opening down.

"Wow--"

The buckwheat husks in the pillow fell on the kang at once, and Lao Zhang headed a few times in the pile of buckwheat husks, and quickly found several silver ingots of various sizes, weighing only three or forty taels.

"Er Yong, you are digging in the mouse hole on the kitchen corner to see if there is any money hidden there."

As Lao Zhang ordered, he went to the kang cabinet and took off Cui's bedding, which was also taken apart as before.

Not long after, the head Zhang found more than a dozen pieces of silver in Cui's blanket.

Zhang Eryong dug out the rest from the mouse hole.

Cui thought he was smart and hid the money among them. He didn't expect that the old man had insight into the den where she hid the private money, but he didn't tell her clearly.

Now, all of the money she took pains to hide has been found, and not only that, the one or two private money she had saved before has also been turned out and confiscated!

The old head Zhang gathered up the silver, and asked Zhang Jinfeng where he sold the bead flower and how much money he sold. After that, he gave Zhang Eryong all the silver he found and asked him to redeem the bead flower tomorrow.

He also knew that the price of selling bead flowers could not be the same as the price of buying bead flowers, so he gave Zhang Eryong all the money his father made during his trip to Qingzhou, and asked him to take them all to see how much the difference was. In any case, Lanya's pearl flowers must be redeemed for Lanya.

Chief Zhang led the two sons to work in Qingzhou for more than a month. Needless to say, he was trying to buy a few more acres of land with the ten taels of silver. Who ever wanted to be harmed by that prodigal old lady? Ten It's a tad more silver, and I can hear a sound in the puddle, and the result is so black and white, and I feel distressed by the old head Zhang, and I want to beat the scourge to urine.

It's also thanks to Cui's running fast, otherwise he will have a good meal and a good fight!

Cui thought that if she ran away, she would be able to prevent the old man from beating her and keep the money in private possession. He didn't expect that the old nest at home would be taken away by others. In the end, she was beaten by a chicken and egg, not just selling beads of silver. The old man found everything, and even the money that the old man and his son made this time out was caught.

At this time, she has already rushed to her mother's house to hide, and when she knows that there will be such a thing, she will surely know it, and she will not want to live!

The day after Shen Ruolan returned home, she began to implement her plan of reclaiming wasteland and digging fish ponds. She first found Lizheng and told him about buying wasteland and blisters. Fourth Ye Wu wished to take care of it. The smelly blisters and barren mountains were sold, and they immediately agreed.

So, Shen Ruolanhua bought the big blisters in the village for three taels of silver, and spent another fifty-three taels of silver to buy another 53 acres of barren hills. In this way, she would have a total of 60 acres of open land. Wasteland.

As soon as Wu Siye received the silver, he immediately wrote her the title deed and reported it to the government for archiving. So, Blisters and the barren mountains were Shen Ruolan's private property.

After obtaining the title deed, Shen Ruolan gathered the villagers in a high-profile manner and held an important meeting.

The spirit of the meeting is as follows:

She wants to open up 53 acres of wasteland on the mountain. The villagers can come to help open up wasteland. For every acre of land she helps, she pays one or two pennies. Everyone can cooperate or act alone. She only looks at the results. If you pay, no one should even think of **** and slipping.

In addition, if there are villagers who want to open up wasteland like her but have no money, you can borrow money from her first, and you can use work to repay the debt in the future, or you can take the potatoes grown out of the wasteland. Soybeans, sweet potatoes, and Chinese cabbage are also acceptable.

In addition to reclaiming wasteland, you can also help her dig fish ponds (blisters) to make money, but the work she does here is to make money according to the amount. The more work you do, the more you earn, and the less you do, the more you earn. It’s fair and just, and those who want to take advantage of others don’t have to think about it.

Everyone was too happy to hear that there was so much work to do, and they all rushed to sign up for fear of leaving themselves behind.

When Zhang Eryong redeemed Shen Ruolan's pearl flowers in the county seat and sent her back to Kaoshantun, he just saw the enthusiastic scene of the villagers signing up.

He asked briefly, and was surprised to hear that Shen Ruolan had actually packed more than 50 acres of wasteland.

It's okay to grow watermelons and melons in the mountains, but it's not enough to grow food.

Because of the terrain, the mountains cannot hold water and are prone to drought. Therefore, in the eyes of many farmers, the mountains are not planted for nothing, because it is very likely that the land will be planted with great effort, but in the end nothing will be harvested. If you don't come up, the seeds are wasted, and you lose money!

Therefore, a large area of ​​mountainous land behind Kaoshantun is still deserted, and no one wants to plant it even if it is one or two dollars an acre of land.

Some people would rather buy a few cents of lowland land with the one or two penny, rather than buy a penny of mountain land, which is the difference between the same amount of land and the wasteland.

Although Zhang Eryong doesn't approve of her opening so many wastelands, he will support her unconditionally as long as she wants to do it. As long as she is happy, she can do anything!

The vigorous land reclamation movement has begun.

Everyone's attitude towards this wasteland reclamation was far more enthusiastic than Shen Ruolan had imagined!

She originally thought that the rough work of land reclamation and fish pond digging could only be done by men. Unexpectedly, when she was doing the work, not only the men would come out, but the women, children and most of the women in the family. The old people also came out, it was a family action.

Some of these people take the family as a unit, pack an acre of wasteland, and then the whole family will work hard together. Those with more energy will do more, and those with less energy will do less. The rich will follow suit, and the elderly and children will follow suit. I’m rushing to do it, just want to make more money, so that my family’s life is spacious and spacious.

Some people are not satisfied with making money on their own, and they bring the three relatives and six elders from other villages to work together. In this way, they can help their relatives earn some money, and they can also be lighter on their own!

There are not many villagers who buy wasteland and open up wasteland by themselves. After all, one or two dollars is not a small sum, and the mountains are not very good to grow. Everyone is afraid to spend so much money to buy it. Therefore, Shen Ruolan mobilized once, and finally, only three or four families bought the barren hills and opened land by themselves.

These families are Qi Laishun's family, Xie Auntie's family, Dachun brother's family, and Gui Shengzi's family. The remaining villagers all work for Shen Ruolan and make money here.
