When the village chief and others heard this, they also lamented the good fortune of winter melon. Did the Cheng family actually say that the ten-year contract would not count?
Yes, the Cheng family has a big business, and this is also true. Otherwise, why didn't Grandma Cheng say that she would waive the contract for others?
It's still Zhang Yang, oh, Li Yang, Li Yang is also a young man who has gone out to make a name for himself. This time he spent so much money to pay for his grandfather's funeral.
The winter melon couple have been suffering for half their lives. From now on, they can live their own lives, which can be regarded as the end of their suffering.
Therefore, this person should have good intentions in his heart.
Otherwise, God will not let you go.
Just like Mr. Zhang, even though he has been free for thirty years, hasn't retribution finally caught up with him?
The two brothers pumpkin and sweet potato, tsk tsk, will have their retribution in the future.
Butcher Wang also borrowed money. When Old Deng said that Hugua would return the money if he didn't pay it back, he just waved his hand, "Whoever borrowed it will pay it back! You still don't believe that Hugua will never return to Songshan Village in his life? He didn't buy it in the county.
Got a house? He must be hiding there. At worst, we will go to the county town to ask for debts from him!"
The village chief also said: "That's right, let's divide the siblings' families like this. If the two don't come back, you make the decision. We testified, pressed our fingerprints, and asked Hu Gua to also press our fingerprints. This document will be considered valid.
, those two didn’t suffer, if they come back later and cause trouble, don’t worry, we’re here!”
Old Mrs. Deng immediately thanked several people, and then asked Mr. Tang to write the family separation document in person. The village chief and others present pressed their fingerprints one after another, and Old Mrs. Deng and Zhang Hugua also put their fingerprints.
There are two copies of this document. Old Deng keeps one copy and takes one copy from the village chief.
This part of the Zhang family's family affairs can be considered settled.
When the news spread to the village, everyone knew that the Zhang family's third bedroom had been divided into separate houses.
From now on, old Mr. Deng will live with Li Donggua and Zhang Hugua, without the support of those two cowards.
Zhang Hugua held the family separation document and looked at the big yard at home, thinking that in the future he would also be the head of the family. He would have to support his mother and his wife and children. It was a long and arduous task!
He has to make money!
Can't be idle!
He also heard what his mother said. If the eldest brother defaults on his debt, he will still have to pay back the debt of five taels of silver!
Thinking with his toes, he probably had to pay back the money. There was no way he could do it. Who knew that his father had borrowed the money?
As for this father, he has nothing to say to him, but the father's debt is repaid by the son. After all, it is his father, so he will help him repay the debt!
Otherwise, if he really owed money to a whole village, he would be embarrassed to face those families who borrowed money.
Thinking about the money, Zhang Hugua couldn't sit still, and there was no work in the workshop. There was still more than a month before the Chinese New Year, so he couldn't stay idle at home.
At that moment, Zhang Hugua planned to go to the town to work part-time, and asked Wu Wujin, who often pulled goods at the pier, to help find work. Finally, he found a job at the pier, carrying goods for people to load, which cost him twenty-five cents a day.
No food included, you can work until the Chinese New Year!
Zhang Hugua then happily went to work. Every day at midnight, Wu Jin would ride Wu Jin's carriage to the town, and Wu Jin would come back first in the afternoon.
The hard worker worked so hard every day that he got home after it was completely dark. After dinner, he covered his head and fell asleep. He got up in the middle of the night. His shoulders were blistered, his hands were covered with calluses, his soles were blistered, and his mouth was
But there was no barking at all. Seeing that Mrs. Deng was happy that her little son had finally grown up, she felt distressed at the same time, fearing that this man would not be able to survive.
Now they are the pillars of their small family. If this falls, will the Miao family's sky collapse?
Seeing Zhang Hugua lose weight after working for seven or eight days, Mrs. Deng couldn't bear the pain of her young son working so hard. After thinking about it, he approached Song Qiu and wanted Song Qiu to help him find a job nearby.
, I’m not afraid of hard work, but at least I don’t have to run so far every day, and I can’t rest well either.
At that time, Song Qiu was discussing with Mr. Yuan about buying another fat pig and killing it together with the pigs at home.
If you want to kill the pigs at home, you will get at most a hundred kilograms of meat. If there is less, buy a fat pig and smoke more bacon. If there are more people in the family, you will eat more, right?
After listening to Old Mrs. Deng saying that he wanted to ask her to help arrange a job, Song Qiu also saw with his own eyes how hard Zhang Hugua was working now, and was afraid that he would collapse from exhaustion, and Zaohua and Shidaner would be without their father by then.
.
For the sake of Zaohua and Shidan'er, Song Qiu thought about it and arranged for Zhang Hugua to go to Zhuangzi.
The vermicelli is being made on Zhuangzi, but it is not finished yet. It is estimated that it will not be completely finished until the Chinese New Year.
However, Song Qiu thought that the hot and sour noodle set business was good, and the tea shed sold a lot of them every day, and some clever vendors came to discuss business with her and wanted to buy hot and sour noodle and the seasoning from her.
Go and set up a stall selling hot and sour noodles elsewhere.
This requires vermicelli, which cannot be cut off.
Song Qiu planned to order from Fang Hui when he ran out of starch.
Fang Hui got her starch recipe and acted quickly. He harvested a lot of sweet potatoes and opened several sweet potato workshops. Now he has promoted and sold the starch to various places.
He has a lot of starch in his hands, so ordering from him is absolutely essential.
Therefore, this vermicelli can be made for a long time, and Zhuangzi only has a few days off during the Chinese New Year.
Zhang Hugua arranged to go in and make vermicelli together, which was not enough for him.
With food and accommodation included, 600 yuan a month is enough for a Hugua to supplement the family income.
After hearing this, Lao Deng took Song Qiu and was extremely grateful.
When Zhang Hugua came back that night and heard about it, he was very grateful and happy. He went to the dock the next day to tell the story, and after paying a few days' wages, he packed up his bags and went up to Zhuangzi happily.
This is something to say later. It is now the twentieth day of the winter lunar month. Yang Huirong and his wife, who originally planned to return home on the fifteenth day of the lunar month, due to heavy snowfall in the north, have blocked the road they came from. As a result, the people at home who came to pick them up were delayed on the way.
Already.
So I stayed for a few more days, and today, the person who came to pick me up finally arrived.
I have been staying at Songshan Inn for almost two months. My son has grown from a few pounds to more than ten pounds. Yang Huirong and his wife cannot stay any longer.
Although they live here comfortably and eat well, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. It has been almost a year since they left home. They are eager to return home and will not go back unless they do so.
Seeing that his family members had finally arrived, Yang Huirong also breathed a sigh of relief and asked someone to take a breath first while he himself went to find Song Qiu.
"Song Xiaodong's family, the people from my family are here to pick them up. We are going to leave home early tomorrow morning. There have been a lot of disturbances these days. I'm sorry to bother Xiaodong."
Yang Huirong said it politely, but Song Qiu hesitated and asked where he was.
What a nuisance, it's not like she lived and ate for free. She also earned Yang Huirong dozens of taels of silver after staying there for two months.
You haven't suffered at all, so why do you have the nerve to treat others as polite?
Yang Huirong just said it casually. Of course, he was indeed in trouble, so he said it smoothly.
Seeing that Song Qiu didn't accept it, he immediately smiled and didn't mention it anymore. Instead, he said: "Before I left, I also wanted to discuss some business with the little boss. I would like to bring something back home that can only be found here.
It’s like bringing some gifts back to my family.”
"I want to buy a hundred copies of this hot and sour rice noodle set to take away, as well as the bean paste and dried chili peppers. If the little boss can share more, can you please sell some to me?"
