When the second uncle went to the county government to invite people, the county master would not come over for such a trivial matter, but he was afraid that the general official errand would not make the Wang family unhappy, so he called his most trusted master over. This master's silver is less than two taels of silver per month, although there will be food and other things every month, but the value of all things together is no more than three taels of silver. Seeing that Zhang Yunfeng had no effort, he had five taels of silver in his hands a month, and there were only three people living, so it was not enough, and his heart was on fire.

"I think this woman is just making trouble! Your Wang family doesn't need to rely on her for everything, you shouldn't have been so indulgent in the first place. Today, this master speaks, it's not that your Wang family is unkind, it's that this woman is too greedy. This woman had married another person and had two sons, so she was not a widow and orphan who had no offspring, so there was no legal provision for the original son to be supported. The silver that her son who stayed in the Wang family gave her support was benevolent and righteous, and there was no fault for not giving it, and she didn't have to worry about the threat of this woman suing her son for not supporting her."

Sometimes things are actually so simple, Zhang Yunfeng has been threatening the Wang family by suing the government, and when the real government personnel are in front of her, and the reasons she has been justified are gone, she is as good as a grandson. I don't dare to put any big words, I will sign and draw a charge when I call it, and I will press my handprint if I call it. She called her brother and sister-in-law couldn't believe it, this woman was her own sister-in-law who was still arrogant a quarter of an hour ago.

No matter how you deal with it, as long as you solve this trouble. The Wang family was happy. Xiaohu happily sent the master back, and also had a meal in his own hot pot restaurant, and gave him a hardship fee. The master took it very happily, and he came back in the night.

"Hey! This matter is finally completely resolved, that woman is so capable of tossing, I thought it was so hard! I heard the second uncle say that as soon as the master said a few words, she didn't even dare to fart, so she obediently collected sixty taels of silver in alimony every year. In the future, until he died, he would no longer ask Qingzhu to ask for any other guarantees, and he drew a pledge and pressed his handprint. You must know that the woman is so easy to solve, she should have found someone from the government a long time ago. ”

Erya shook her head. "You want me to say! This timing is just right, which can solve the thorny problem well without causing Qingzhu's disgust. I didn't see it before, but this time I found out that the second uncle is still very means! ”

"Of course! In the past, when the second uncle went out to sell chess by himself, he was very good at talking to others! The second uncle just doesn't like to do business. Otherwise, he would definitely do better than the third uncle of the eldest grandfather's family. ”

"Do you want to write all these situations to Qingzhu in detail? I think it's best to let Qingzhu know in advance! With Zhang Yunfeng's mouth that is used to reversing black and white. When the time comes, I may not be able to talk nonsense with Qingzhu. ”

"Okay! I'll write tonight and go to town tomorrow and let them take it away. ”

Wen Yue's new house has not yet been fully decorated, so a message was sent from the north, asking them to arrange manpower here to repair the ancestral tomb when it is cold this year!

At that time, the grandfather of Beidi listened to Xiaohu and Erya's construction, and went to the capital to find a doctor from Chunlintang to see a doctor for treatment. In fact, there is no major problem with his body, and the medicine he took before did not match the symptoms. Cai Daozhì couldn't get better for a long time, and his body was also collapsed by the drugs he took. If it weren't for the time, it would have been in time. I'm afraid that in another year or two, he will really die. They lived in the capital city of Dahong, and were treated by the doctors of Chunlin Hall, and once the medicine was correct, the disease would be cured quickly. They only stayed for more than three months, and then they got better and took some medicine home with them. When he was at home, he recuperated for more than a month, and his grandfather's illness was completely removed, and the happy old man went around to publicize that Xiaohu and his family had saved his life.

After he recovered from his illness, although he also wanted to find the ancestral tomb and quickly repair the ancestral tomb, it was only during that time because of the opening of the mutual market in the border cities of Western Xinjiang, everyone who used to do business made a lot of money. When the younger generations of the family heard the news brought to everyone by his youngest son Shoucang, they could no longer sit still, and they were all clamoring to sell goods and go to the west to do business. There were no young juniors at home to accompany him, so he had to wait. Until the Emperor Taishang went to their area for a leisurely trip, the grandfather had to put the matter of the ancestral tomb as a major matter because of this great honor, so he caught up with this year's overhaul.

"Grandpa! Do you want to go over too? ”

"I went on behalf of your grandfather, and the matter of the emperor coming to our royal family must also be recorded in detail in the family tree. Wen Yue is going to get married after the New Year, you and Xiaohu can't leave, I just want to explain some of my things to you, and you can help me deal with some disputes between villagers. All the taxes and silver in the government have been collected and handed over to the government, and you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay! Grandpa! As long as someone finds me, I will help deal with things, you can rest assured! ”

"Hey! Then I'll trouble you and Xiaohu! ”

In fact, there is no need to go to many people here, but it is just necessary to go to a representative at the head of a house, and when the time comes, kowtow and burn paper in front of the grave.

Uncle Bao Zhengrong's house in another place, this year is particularly lively, the two daughters who married to distant places have come back with sons-in-law and children for the New Year, and they have also brought a great thing to their relatives and friends in their hometowns.

Li Zhen took out a small silver bracelet and gave it to Zhenghua's daughter first, and put it on her chubby, white and tender little arm, and said: "Grandpa can't take out any expensive objects, don't look down on this little bracelet!" ”

Chen Maodong was about to excuse himself when he heard him say this, so he had to stop, and after the couple said words of thanks, they watched the old man take out the same silver bracelet and put it on the son of the Zhengyin family.

Qi Zhengke knew that he couldn't excuse himself, and he didn't make that extra move, so he smiled and said, "It's a waste to call the old man!" ”

Li Zhen waved his hand: "If you say this, I will be embarrassed by the little old man!" Don't look at Xiao Lao'er, I don't have much knowledge, but the pastries and wine you sent home, Xiao Lao'er, I know that that box of pastries is more valuable than this, not to mention the wine. You lift up the little old man and me, and the pastries and wine you send are all eaten and drunk by the noble family, and I am happy little old man. I just can't give anything better to the two children, and I don't feel good! ”

Although they are all paddy fields, they can be regarded as fertile and beautiful, but unfortunately the population is too dense, and the per capita acres are too small. Even if the harvest is good in a good year, there are not many people who can save the remaining money. The town here can get two silver bracelets as a gift for the children, and it is already a very good family. The village chief couldn't take it, but he wrapped ten copper plates in red envelopes for one child and stuffed them into two children. The patriarch only looked at it with a smile on the side, not even a red envelope. But there is no one, and the two sons-in-law of the Bao family don't care.

After a period of greetings, everyone sat down according to their respective seats and talked about the great things that the son-in-law of the Bao family brought to everyone.

"Zhenghua husband, Zhengyin husband! Can you tell us a little bit about the straw bag? ”

Qi Zhengke, as always, ceded the right to speak to Chen Maodong, Chen Maodong saw that Qi Zhengke was looking at himself, so he had no choice but to speak: "We need a total of three kinds of straw woven bags, the big one is almost two feet long and wide, the middle one is one and a half feet long and wide, and the small one is about one foot long and wide. Our purchase price is also graded; Medium straw woven bags, two pennies for the big ones, three pennies for the middle ones, and four pennies for the small ones. The bag is woven with stone and grass, and the large one has three pennies, the middle one has two pennies, and the small one has three pennies. The bags woven by the cattail grass are one penny for the big one, three pennies for the middle two pennies, and two pennies for the small ones.

Don't look at the price of this thing, but this family can make it up, and it can make more than 100 a day if it's fast. However, if you spread it on the ground as you normally do, of course you won't be able to reach this number, and there is a way to do it. Tomorrow we will tell you how to make a small wooden shelf specially used for weaving, and to clamp and straighten the processed straw on the boards on both sides, and then you have to wear it as if it were weaving, and you will be able to weave one in a while. There are a few more people who specialize in edge banding and hand-bearing, and it is not a problem for a family to earn an average of 30 yuan a day. You go back to discuss, if you think you can do it, we will sign an order form with you and give you a part of the deposit first. If you can't do it, just let us know! ”

The straw that can only be used for fire can be sold for money, which is something they never dreamed of, where can they say no? There are also old people and children who can earn money, and they can earn 30 wen a day, which is not an exaggeration to say that it is a pie falling from the sky, who will refuse? Li Zhen didn't pause, and then replied to Chen Maodong's words: "You can do it!" Absolutely! You can rest assured! Either you make one of those shelves for us to use in advance, or we can make a few first, and if you say they can be used, we will start making it up formally. Do you think so? The reason why he said this was that he didn't want to give the two young people a chance to regret it, and the old man really wanted to take over the job.

Even if they raise ducks, loaches, and eels in the rice fields according to the methods that Zhenghua and Zhengyin learned from Hepu Town, the income in the fields has indeed increased, but they can only solve the problem of food and clothing for a large family. Once there is a big event that needs to spend a lot of money, you can only reach out and borrow from others, and in the coming year, you have to tighten your belt and live with a large family. Therefore, this opportunity to make extra money, they must seize it no matter what, and there must be no mistakes.

Chen Maodong and Qi Zhengke were able to order from them so far because the lives of the people here were too difficult. They can't even grab the tenant land here, and the only way is to go out to find a job like Bao Zhengrong and them did before.

Seeing that Li Zhen was so eager to take over the job, the two of them nodded to each other in agreement, and Chen Maodong replied: "Okay!" Then we'll start cooking as soon as we've eaten. It's very simple, you can make it with a few planks. ”

"Then I'm sorry for you two distinguished guests! At noon, I invite you to go to Xiao Lao'er's house for a bite to eat, and there is no good hospitality. Please don't shirk! (To be continued.) )

ps: There will be two more later!
