When Uncle Gong Jian mentioned Gong Jian, he made a lot of accusations: "That boy not only taught the young people in the village how to hunt in the back mountains, but also helped many people in the village, selling the mountain goods at home, and also contacted
Some work opportunities. However, his family's reputation in the village is very good.
Some time ago, his family taught everyone how to breed rabbits, and distributed the rabbits to many families. Now even the second son of his family, the boy named Gong Yu, who was unknown before, only
I know that the little guy who works hard has become famous. Who in the village wouldn't praise him?"
Speaking of this, Uncle Gong Jian was filled with displeasure. Apparently all the scholars in this village were from his family. His eldest son was in a private school for three or four years, and his younger son was even more
It’s amazing, and I’m still studying in a private school in town.
But those people couldn't see that the two talented scholars in their own family were praising the two stupid boys from their brother's family. Everyone was blind. What's so good about those two young men? Just rely on them.
Some small favors were used to win over the people in the village. Thinking of this, he became even more unconvinced.
"Village chief, the old thing of the village chief has been bribed by his family a long time ago. Not to mention the village chief, even the youngest son of the village chief's family is on the side of that family."
Speaking of this, Uncle Gong Jian remembered again that the village chief's youngest son came to his home and forced the couple to go to Gong Jian's house to learn rabbit breeding methods. At that time, the village chief's youngest son's face made him turn around.
He spat the saliva onto the ground with a loud sound.
"That family is not good at other people. I think they know it and are very good at buying people's hearts. Many people in this village have been bought by them. Many people are obedient to that family. Otherwise, why would they move away like this?
You see, we don’t even know about this big thing. Someone in the village must be covering it up for them.”
Hearing Uncle Gong Jian complain so angrily: "Listen to what I say, Yaozu, you can see it, Gong Jian's family has a really good reputation in the village. And they have such a close relationship with the village chief.
How can we not make good use of this relationship? Take more benefits to our own family?"
Uncle Gong Jian was not angry at all after saying so much, but he didn't expect that his youngest son would actually talk like this. By the way, his youngest son just said that he wanted to take advantage of Gong Jian's family? What's the big advantage?
This was the second time he mentioned it. This time Uncle Gong Jian had to pay attention: "Yaozu, please tell me carefully, what exactly do you think?"
Gong Yaozu sighed. It was not easy. He finally made his father stop his useless venting and finally listen to him.
"Dad, please don't be so angry yet. I think Gong Jian's family has such a good advantage in the village, so we don't mind taking advantage of their opportunity to bring some benefits to our family."
Seeing that Uncle Gong Jian was eager to ask another question, Gong Yaozu quickly continued: "What I mean is that since Gong Jian's family has such a good reputation, let's go out and just talk to their family.
If something happens, push their family to the front first. With them blocking the front, we can just drink soup in the back."
Gong Yaozu's words confused Uncle Gong Jian. Until now, he felt that his head was not full of energy. Why couldn't he understand what this scholar said? He was a little confused.
He asked Gong Yaozu: "Yaozu, what do you mean by this? Can you explain it more clearly?"
Gong Yaozu once again despised his father and mother in his heart. He had made it so clear, why didn't he understand? It's true that his father always said he was smart, but he really wanted to tell him something. Look,
He hasn't understood it for a long time.
There was no other way. Gong Yaozu could only give an example to illustrate this matter: "Dad, what I mean is that when we are walking outside and something happens, for example, you go to town to buy something,
Or if you owe money to someone, then when keeping accounts or writing IOUs, you can simply write down Gong Jian’s family at the front. When the creditor comes to our house to collect money or asks for a debt, you can mention your family’s name.
That means there is nothing. If you want money, just go to Gong Jian and his family.
Then you go to Gong Jian and his family and cry in front of their house. What can I say? You are also Gong Jian's uncle, but he is his uncle. Could it be that for some money, Gong Jian doesn't even recognize him as his uncle? It's not in their way
For your own reputation, Gong Jian and the others will have to pay this debt to you.
As soon as Gong Yaozu said these words, Uncle Gong Jian's eyes lit up. Yes, this is really a good idea. Why didn't he think of it before?
Before he could jump up for joy, he heard Gong Yaozu continue to say: "Also, don't Gong Jian's family have a good relationship with the village chief? Then you keep an eye on this village. If anything happens,
What if we were distributing grain or allocating labor?
If that's the case, just follow the village chief and see how he arranges the Gong Jian family, and then you demand equal treatment. Our two relatives are so close, and the village chief only cares about the Gong Jian family's face.
You must also treat our family with the same preferential treatment."
Gong Yaozu remembered that once, his parents sent him a message to the town specifically to distribute seeds to every household in the spring.
At that time of year, the seeds distributed by the yamen are also divided into three, six, and five grades. It is impossible that the seeds distributed in this village are all high-grade. Although the seeds their family received in previous years were not of high grade, most of them were of high grade.
It should be medium anyway.
But I don’t know what the village chief thought that year, but the seeds he distributed to his family were all inferior. If it were just like this, Uncle Gong Jian’s family would have endured it. After all, the land was rented out. In fact, this
The seeds are inferior, which means they will only reduce some of the food they receive. But his family has a small population, and he has been staying in the town. His parents are the only ones who eat at home. The lack of food is not very big.
of importance.
But what his parents couldn't bear was that the families who had good relations with Gong Jian's family were all allocated the best seeds. This made them very angry, but they argued with the village chief several times, but they never got a good seed.
result.
At that time, his parents wanted to call him back so that he, a scholar, could control the villagers. But of course Gong Yaozu knew very well that the matter of the seeds was originally the job of the village chief, and he was just a student studying in a private school.
, what does it mean in this matter. (To be continued)
