"Auntie, tell me, from now on, you will treat me as your child, just say whatever you want!" Chu Yiqing quickly put down his chopsticks and listened carefully.
Zhao Maixiang and Jinyu didn't know what the old lady was going to say, so they quickly looked at it. Only Maixiang was there snoring and drinking something sweet.
"It's like this. When you came back this time, there was a lot of noise. Shangjia Village is a place as big as a palm. I'm afraid that people will be jealous. I know you are a kid who wants to do big things. I also listened to what you told Jin Yu about renting land.
, although Jin Yu mentioned it to the village chief, and the village chief promised to convene the villagers for discussion, but after all, the village chief has the final say in this village, you see..."
Chu Yiqing understood it as soon as he heard it, and said quickly: "Auntie, I know what you mean. I have prepared the village chief's gifts, two bottles of daughter's red, ten pounds of meat, and a piece of cloth. I will give it to you tonight.
Jinyu took me to visit the village chief! By the way, he also mentioned the matter of renting land!"
"Hey, that's good, then I won't worry about it!" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huangfu immediately felt relieved, stretched out her chopsticks to pick up the braised pork, put it in her mouth, and tasted it with a smile, "It's been a long time.
I have eaten meat so happily, even during Chinese New Year, I just put some minced meat in the dishes!"
Zhao Maimai and Jin Yu were happy when they saw the old lady happy. The people at the table were eating happily, which was very warm.
After dinner, Chu Yiqing entrusted A Bao to the old lady, and then went to the village chief's house with Jin Yu under the cover of night.
The village chief's family lives in the east end. Even though it is the largest courtyard in the village, it only has four mud houses. However, despite the inconspicuous living, the village chief plays a decisive role in this small village. Who wants to build a house?
Every house, household registration, including going to school and taking the imperial examinations all had to be stamped by the village chief, which gave them great rights.
Half an hour later, Chu Yiqing and Jin Yu came out with happy faces, and the village chief even politely walked them to the door.
On the way back, Jin Yu couldn't help but be excited and whispered: "Sister, it seems like it's done. Look at the village chief, his eyes widened when he saw those gifts!"
Chu Yiqing smiled. Indeed, those gifts could buy a cow. The village chief was naturally happy. When he heard that Chu Yiqing could rent land for one tael of silver a year, he even smiled and kept saying that the matter would be taken care of by him.
Naturally, Chu Yiqing also talked about hiring villagers to work, and the village chief agreed.
The next day, the village chief held a village meeting and informed the villagers about the matter. He was not in a hurry and asked everyone to go back and discuss it separately. Those who are willing to rent can rent it, and those who are not willing can forget it.
That night, many people in Shangjia Village were awake, thinking about this incident, and for the first time, all the men in Shangjia Village came back.
At the village chief's house, the village chief's wife touched the piece of silk and satin and said repeatedly: "Master, look, this is silk. Only the ladies in the city can wear it, and now I have it too!"
The village chief sipped wine and ate braised pork, squinting his eyes happily, "It seems that this relative of Lao Zhao's family is not simple. Who in our village has given such a generous gift? But I don't know.
The sky is high and the sky is high, look at her fair and tender skin, how does she look like a farmer? She also spent so much money to rent all the land in the village!"
The village chief's wife put down the silk and looked back at him: "You mean not to rent it to her?"
"Rent! Why not rent! It's one tael of silver a year. When did the land in Shangjia Village become so valuable? Even if you farm it for three years, you can't make one tael of silver. We can get the money without working, so why not rent it?
?" The village chief chuckled: "Anyway, we won't be able to take care of the credit at that time, so the Chu family girl will bear it herself, right?"
"That's right, the money is given first anyway!" Upon hearing this, the village chief's wife nodded quickly.
Within two days, each family went to the village chief's house to sign the contract. Chu Yiqing kept his promise and immediately gave money to each family on the spot based on the number of acres.
The villagers looked at the money they received and couldn't believe it was real. Chu Yiqing took the opportunity to explain that he would go to the mountain to grind talcum powder tomorrow and it would cost ten coppers a day. When everyone heard this, the wages were really not low. He could sell a pound of pork a day.
, those strong men working in the town could only earn four hundred coppers a month, so they signed up one after another. Jin Yu selected a dozen who were quick at work, set a time, and went into the mountains tomorrow.
At night, Jin Yu watched Chu Yiqing coaxing A Bao to sleep, so he called Chu Yiqing out and put the remaining dozen or so broken silver coins in Chu Yiqing's hands: "Sister, don't refuse either.
, I know that you rented a land today and have no money on you. You should take the money first and use it. We are sisters, right? I still want to live a good life with you!"
Chu Yiqing took a closer look and found that Jin Yu was really thinking about her. She really didn't have much money left to rent the land. She wanted to go to the town tomorrow to think of a solution, but the soil and fertilizer she had fertilized a few days ago had expired.
Her supervision allowed people to make good use of money, and now the gold and jade money has indeed solved the urgent need.
Chu Yiqing thought for a moment and took the money: "Sister Jinyu, then I'm not polite. Don't worry, I will pay you back the money, really!"
"Look what you said, this money belongs to you, girl, why don't you pay it back!" Seeing Chu Yiqing accepted it, Jin Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was poor, she didn't feel comfortable knowing that it was not her own expense.
, I always wanted to return the money to Chu Yiqing.
At night, while Chu Yiqing was lying on the kang, he heard the voice of the old lady in the outer room whispering again: "Jin Yu, the girl from the Chu family is quite nice!"
"Well, I know mom, I will definitely follow my sister and do a good job!" Jin Yu quickly replied.
After hearing what they said, Chu Yiqing was even more determined to increase the wheat harvest this season!
The next day, the weather was fine. Jin Yu took people into the mountain to grind talcum powder. Chu Yiqing was going to take two people to water and fertilize the Zhao family's wheat field. When the old lady Huangfu saw her working hard holding the child, she immediately
He said: "Miss Chu, if you are at ease, just give the child to me and I will take care of it for you!"
Chu Yiqing nodded. In fact, although he had not been in the Zhao family for a long time, he saw that the family were all good people, so Chu Yiqing felt relieved. Besides, taking A Bao out in the wind and sun would not give him a good rest, which would affect him.
He grows.
After kissing A Bao and handing A Bao to the old lady Huangfu, she couldn't help but remind him: "A Bao should drink some water before drinking milk, and after drinking, you should hold him up to pat him when he burps, and if he pees...
…”
Old Mrs. Huangfu kept looking at her with a smile and listening to her, until the two sisters-in-law from the neighbor's house asked her to go together.
Turning around, Chu Yiqing felt that his heart was sour and uncomfortable, but he was afraid that the old lady would see it, so he resisted and did not look back.
Old Mrs. Huangfu also understood her mood. She led Mai Xiang and stood at the entrance of the village, watching until Chu Yi knew they could no longer see her, and then she called Mai Xiang back to the house.
Wrapping her hair with a brocade handkerchief and tying her skirt around her waist, Chu Yiqing, like a real peasant woman, led her two neighbor's sisters-in-law to get the soil and fertilizer, and caught up with them on both sides of the long, because the land was really poor.
Just sprinkle it under the wheat, far away from the roots, and sprinkle it thinly and densely.
"Two sisters-in-law, this is the first time for top dressing. You must cover everything, but you can't burn the seedlings!" Chu Yiqing said kindly while demonstrating.
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't expect that the Chu family girl is actually an expert!"
