The second girl is about to get married, and Yun Lan has prepared a rich dowry for her. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
10,000 taels of silver, a 300-acre grange, a two-entry house in the south of the city, specially designed for her sterling silver head jewelry, red gold head jewelry, ruby head jewelry, sapphire head jewelry, jade head jewelry, pearl head jewelry, six sets of clothes, shoes and socks in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
As for the wedding dress and futon, it was prepared by Erniu herself, but she also referred to Yun Lan's opinion. The wedding dress is naturally a red wedding dress, and the fabric is a cloud brocade newly developed by the textile factory. The bedding is satin, cotton, and silk.
Today, cotton has long been planted in large quantities in the northwest, and the yield is not low, at least ten times higher than in the past. In the northwest, there are also many farmers who specialize in mulberry and silkworm raising, and the output of silk is enough to meet the demand of textile mills. Today, Yunjin has attracted great attention from Yan and other neighboring countries.
The house in the south of the city is far from Shazao Academy, and if the road is smooth, the horse-drawn carriage takes about a quarter of an hour. Walking, an hour is enough. The capital of Qi is a brand-new city, and the buildings in the south of the city were just completed last year. The house for the second girl was renovated half a year ago.
The grange for the second girl is next to Yun Lan's grange in the saline-alkali land. At the beginning, when Yun Lan bought the 1,000 acres of wasteland in the saline-alkali land, she also bought a lot for her family: her father, mother, eldest brother and sister-in-law, stones, small trees, small seas, small slopes, small hills and two girls, all of which had 300 acres each.
The second uncle, the old patriarch, the younger uncle's family and Tan Fuzi were all persuaded by her and bought 300 acres each. Next to her grange, they all learned from her to build a grange, planting crops and fruit trees, raising chickens, ducks, geese and pigs.
With Yun Lan's help (in each grange, regular rations are added, spiritual spring water is added), and now the land in each grange has basically been transformed into medium fields (Yun Lan only added a small amount of spiritual spring water, and did not dare to add too much, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the world), and provided vegetables and fruits and meat for the family for a long time.
The military reclamation farm next door has naturally been helped by Yun Lan, and has the ability to solve the needs of the soldiers in the military camp for food, vegetables, fruits, meat and vegetables for a long time. Even, there is still spare strength to support the soldiers in other military camps.
Biandanguan is the place of saline-alkali land, the place where it borders with the Hu people, and it is also the place adjacent to Bishui Lake.
The transformation of saline-alkali land has been fruitful, and the military reclamation farm has long been more than the original one. Today, there are six, each of which is as much as a thousand acres. In other parts of the Qi country, it is not good to open up a large number of military reclamation farms and compete with the people for land.
From the Grange to the capital, the carriage ride is only seven hours. Depart early in the morning and arrive in the evening. If it weren't for her own identity, she would have to take the lead in the "enclosure movement", she would have wanted to buy a thousand acres of saline-alkali land for her mother's family.
And the thousand acres of land in her own name have been divided into three parts by her: one of six hundred acres is still in her name; The remaining 400 acres are divided into two, with 200 acres each for Yunqing and Yunkai. And in the days to come, the remaining six hundred acres shall be divided equally among the other sons and daughters. If you go down for a point, it will not be enough to see it, and there is absolutely no excuse for the world to make irresponsible comments.
Dongfeng Village has now become a paradise-like place, and the scenery is very beautiful. It's just that in the Loess Plateau, if you want to build a road that is easier to walk, you can't do it. There are too many sharp turns, the slopes are too steep, and the road surface is too narrow. The carriages in and out can only be specially built, which is much smaller than ordinary carriages.
Yun Lan's opinion that Dongfeng Village can be used as a place for retirement. Young people, they still have to come out to make a living, at least one of the family has to come out. Children who have reached the age of 10 must also leave their nests and go out to school, and they cannot just nest in the col and be frogs at the bottom of the well. To make a fortune, we must also go hand in hand, planting fruit trees and medicinal herbs in the mountains, and growing food crops outside.
The clan elders all thought so, and they all readily agreed to her proposal.
Everyone believes that Yun Lan is a great lucky star, and it is she who has brought great blessings and luck to the people of Dongfeng Village. Back then, everyone trusted her, and with the idea of "gambling", they followed her to the rumored Loess Plateau, where the grass did not even grow. However, I endured a lot of hardships on the road, and after arriving at the destination, life settled down and lived a good life.
Six years have passed, and with her help and guidance, Dongfeng Village has produced many scholars. Among the people who have meritorious fame, among the people of appropriate age, there are as many as thirty percent, eleven talents, five people, and three jinshi.
In the future, Dongfeng Village will definitely be able to produce talents and become a scholarly village.
Moreover, Yun Lan's contribution to Dongfeng Village is far more than that.
The magic potion she concocted, the vegetables and fruits she watered, made her much healthier after eating it. Although it cannot cure a terminal disease, it can improve physical fitness, strengthen the body, and have bright ears and eyes.
Of course, not everyone knows about this, that is, Zhuge Tianming, Yun Qin, wood, stone, Xiaoshu, little uncle, old patriarch and second uncle, as well as the other two clan elders who are extremely tight-mouthed.
The old patriarch, the second uncle, and the clan elder naturally would not let Yun Lan's merits be buried, and among the clansmen, they vigorously proclaimed that Yun Lan was a great blessing star, a great savior, and a person who was favored by Guanyin Bodhisattva. Because of this, we can bring so many blessings to everyone, so that everyone can be strong and strong, and can live a good life of eating, drinking, wearing, and peace.
Everyone carries the sedan chair, and the rest of the people in the village are naturally not far behind, and they are all vying to do it. Suddenly, Yun Lan had a very high image status in Dongfeng Village. Even the three-year-old Xiao Budian knows the glorious image of Aunt Yun Lan, and knows that she is the great benefactor of the whole village, and she is a good person.
The people of Yun Lan's mother's family, in the village, are unprecedentedly high.
The family walked in the village, and everyone was almost very warm and friendly. Naturally, they are not money, and there are a few people who don't like them, and there are so many people who are jealous. This is inevitable, no matter how good a person is, it is inevitable that there will be one or two people with bad character. However, there are really no people who are really vicious and can be called scum. Just because, all the children in the family, if there is a little hint, they are forcibly suppressed by the elders, and then they are educated with perseverance and sticks.
Be taught to be an honest man, to do things in a down-to-earth manner, to know how to repay kindness, not to forget to dig wells, not to be ungrateful, not to take revenge, and so on. In the long run, if there is more criticism and education, there will always be a little gain, and there will always be a little effect. The atmosphere of the entire Dongfeng Village is excellent, reaching the point where the road is not left behind and the door is not closed at night.
The whole bad environment is good, and the children who grow up here will subconsciously think that if they don't learn well and don't know how to repay their kindness, it is shameful and will be spurned by the world. In the future, when he is old, the children will despise him and look down on him, so that he will not be able to spend his old age in peace and enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren.
Those few people with bad character only dare to target people outside, and they only dare to secretly release their bad nature outside when they walk out of Dongfeng Village, just like being a thief. In front of the people in the village and in front of acquaintances, he did not dare to have excessive words and deeds.
Make a stumbling block for Yunqin's family, and make small moves and big moves? I don't have the courage to have such a thought! Yun Lan is the mother of a country, and she is also the only woman of the king. Unlike the Yan Kingdom, where there are 3,000 harem concubines, and the women are divided into many factions, and the only woman in the direct king. Unlike Yan Guo, where there are 3,000 harem concubines, and the women are divided into many factions, which can directly have a great impact on the imperial court.
In this way, if you want to use the harem concubines to suppress Yun Lan and her family, there is no way out. If the fly wants to stare at the egg, it needs to have a crack in the egg! Yun Lan's family, including herself, is self-clean, does not embezzle, does not accept bribes, and does not do things that bury their conscience. If you want to find fault, you want to find a handle, but you can't start.
Such a person, as long as they are not stupid, will not want to target.
As for adults, before they came to the Northwest, they were over fifteen years old, and all of them had good personalities. The bad ones were all rejected by Yun Lan, without her approval, those people didn't dare to follow, worried that they wouldn't be able to survive if they came, so they chose to go somewhere else.
The people who came with them, after suffering the first hard days, are getting better and better. In particular, Yun Lan has also become the mother of a country, and the country of Qi is also thriving.
The people of Dongfeng Village are also full of confidence under the premise of keeping to themselves, and the heads of every household secretly swear in their hearts that they must make the days more prosperous. The old patriarch and the second uncle are even more ambitious, vowing to work hard to build Dongfeng Village into a village with the best, richest and most scholarly atmosphere in Qi country, in the hope that it can be maintained for thousands of years and become a scholarly village (for generations, after a thousand years, it is still a village with a strong smell of books).
The second girl is going to get married, which has become the top priority in Dongfeng Village.
The old patriarch personally came forward and summoned five young women with the best, neat and good character, and gathered at Yunqin's house for two hours every day, stepping up the sewing of bedding, pillowcases, pillows, embroidered handkerchiefs, and clothes, shoes and socks for the in-laws.
Perhaps, under the influence of Yun Lan, the old patriarch was extremely unkind to see those women with broken mouths. Even if he is not bad and is warm-hearted, he is very unwelcome.
Good intentions do bad things, usually done by people with broken mouths.
