The uncle shook his head hastily, "No way, no one will take care of the fields."
"You can ask someone to help you with the work in the fields, and promise to share a portion of the harvest with them, so that they will work harder. We farmers should care about the fields, but nothing can compare to the peace and security of the whole family." Bai
Banxia said.
Everyone was silent. Grandpa asked a little uncertainly: "Is it not that serious? We have to spend a lot of money to go out."
"It's not necessarily a big deal. Just treat it like we're inviting my grandparents out to play. I bought a house in Xiguan City and have a place to live there. My parents also plan to sell pancakes and fruits, and then my aunt will also
Making flowers and selling them will definitely cover your daily expenses." Bai Banxia said slowly.
"Originally, I didn't plan to go there too early this month. I thought I would go with my brother Erlang for reference next month, but now that I think about it, there are still many things that need to be prepared in advance. It would be better to go and make arrangements earlier."
It may be too much for her to worry alone, but she and Qi Zhen both have concerns in this regard, which shows that they must be dealt with carefully.
Naturally, she couldn't tell her grandma and others that the back mountain project involved a struggle between the royal family. It might take a lot of talking to convince them.
Grandpa thought for a while and said: "Tell your uncle and Tongsheng to go to Tongshan. The men in the family are out. You can't drag us old men and women to work, right?"
This time Qi Zhen spoke, "It's inappropriate, it's too obvious."
It’s really obvious that all the strong men in the family are traveling far away.
I didn't want my grandma to suddenly say: "I think we should go together. I went to Xiguan City once with my father when I was a child. It has been decades, and I really want to go and see it again."
Grandpa laughed and said, "Then I haven't passed it once, so I might as well be like you."
"Why, you still have to run farther than me? You see, you have fallen in love with your son-in-law and your daughter, and you can go to the big city to see more." Grandma praised with a smile.
She specifically mentioned her son-in-law, mainly because she wanted to praise Bai Tian. There is no son-in-law or granddaughter who is such a sensible and good boy.
Bai Tian said with a smile: "Then let's make a charter and set off as soon as we're ready. Banxia's house is nice and enough for us to live in. You must like it."
Bai Banxia's face burned when her father called her "their house". Before, she had thought of getting Qi Zhen to do business together and use his daughter-in-law's money to prevent him from marrying someone else and running away. Later.
They didn't think much about it when they bought a house together. Now that their relationship has settled, it's as if they had purchased the wedding house in advance.
"Then I'll do some more flower-making, maybe I can make a lot of money." My aunt also said happily.
My uncle was a little worried about the land, but seeing that everyone in his family wanted to go, he decided to think about which company would be more secure to entrust the land to.
Afterwards, everyone discussed the schedule of departure and decided to go to Xiguan City to see Zhang Tongshan's wife. In addition, Banxia was getting married and the Zhang family wanted to go to a big city to pick out a good dowry gift for their granddaughter.
This idea was brought up by his uncle, and Bai Banxia couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, are you really cheating on your son? When people in the village asked about it, they couldn't help but say that my eldest cousin wanted to marry a city wife, but she didn't like him.
?”
"What's the matter? Anyway, let's just say we don't like her and let others think whatever they want." The uncle said nonchalantly.
"What if it's hard for my first cousin to propose marriage? If it's not that my third cousin has to go on errands and can't go, it would be nice to say it's just for him to fall in love with." Bai Banxia said.
Zhang Tonglin, who was far away at the county government office, sneezed. If he knew that his cousin was thinking about him like this, he would definitely thank her and thank her properly.
"What are you afraid of? Your eldest cousin doesn't want a wife now anyway." My aunt also said the same.
Zhang Tongsheng nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I'm not afraid to say it. It's good to use this as an excuse."
The matter was happily decided. The departure time was set for five days. Qizhen would hire a carriage in advance and pick everyone up at Maple Village.
After the discussion, everyone went their separate ways, and the uncle went to find someone to discuss taking care of the fields.
Bai Banxia brought new patterns to her aunt, and the two discussed the new batch of head flower designs. Her aunt planned to make some before departure, and this time she took them directly to Xiguan City for sale.
In the afternoon, my uncle came back and said that the search had been completed, and the person he was looking for was the Luo family.
That was Luo Xiuer's mother's family. He originally didn't want to hire someone from the Luo family, so how could there be any reason to hire someone from the family?
As a result, I met Luo Xiuer's father when I went out. They greeted each other and started chatting. The uncle told me about his family's plan to travel. Xiuer's father immediately patted his chest and said, "We are all in-laws. Can't we help you take care of them? My family is so strong."
Are you worried that you will be too busy with your labor?”
Zhang Renshen was very embarrassed and said: "Brother, it's not that I haven't thought about it, but how can there be any reason to work so hard for my parents? I'm going to be poked in the back."
Xiu'er's father smiled and said, "Then just give me what you should pay when hiring others. Just take care of us. Several of my boys are waiting to get wives. It would be nice to have more income."
Seeing how generous and frank he said, Zhang Ren agreed and promised to give the Luo family 20% as a token of gratitude when the crops in the field were harvested. Xiuer's father insisted on only 10%, saying that he would not take care of it for too long, so
There was not much work, but Zhang Renshen disagreed, saying that if it only cost 10%, he would not look for the Luo family.
Finally, Xiuer's father had no choice but to agree.
When the two of them were about to separate, Zhang Renshen thought about it and reminded him, telling the Luo family not to send people to work for the court, but to just take care of the fields.
Xiuer's father was also a smart man and knew that we couldn't discuss it further, so he nodded in agreement.
"My second son's family, before you leave, go back to your mother's house and have a look, and also remind your mother in private that you shouldn't be in a hurry to make money, and it's better not to get involved in this matter." After thinking about it, the uncle said to Luo Xiuer in a low voice.
"Okay, Dad, I understand." Luo Xiuer responded.
Bai Banxia and the others had a meal at grandma's house before saying goodbye and leaving.
On the way back, the smile on Bai Tian's face faded, revealing a sad look.
"What's wrong, don't you want my family to go?" Zhang Lingzhi was rarely so sharp, and he suddenly became unhappy.
Bai Tian hurriedly squeezed out a smile and said, "Daughter-in-law, you have misunderstood. I am worried about how to tell my parents when I go back. You know my mother's temper. You might want to ask her to go together, but you can't hide it from her. Maple Tree Village
It’s not that far away, no news can’t reach Baoshan Village.”
Zhang Lingzhi became worried when he heard this, "What should I say? Your mother will definitely make a scene, and I will be scolded again."
"When we get back, just tell the truth according to what we have discussed, and then say that the conditions of my eldest cousin are very good, but the cost in the city is high, so my grandma and the others decided to spend a lot of money and sell the land they sold to the court years ago.
