"Settle in our village?" The village chief was stunned: "I don't want to." What village chief doesn't want his village to have more and more people and become more and more prosperous. There are rewards from the government. Just go to the government office and get all the paperwork. After a pause, he said: "Your second uncle's family is all responsible people, so I naturally welcome it." It's not the boss's family. ”

Being the village chief is annoying and only making trouble, but unfortunately, there are uneasy people in every village.

Hua Yun asked, "How do you do it?" ”

"It's very simple, just change Uncle Wan's family from household registration to our village. In the future, all of them will leave our village. It's no problem that your parents are familiar with your family. ”

"My grandparents moved in too."

"Just change it the same way. Then settle down, they still live in your house? ”

Hua Yun shook his head: "You must have your own home." I'll go back and ask my uncle what he means. ”

"Huh? Your second uncle doesn't know about this? ”

Second Uncle Wan was very confused, he just went out to the field for a while, and he was called back to settle down and change places?

"Yun'er, Yun'er, what do you say? Why don't I know anything? ”

Hua Yun said: "Then do you want to buy someone else's yard to live in, or buy land to build your own house?" ”

Second Uncle Wan: "..."He didn't ask if this was good?

"We were originally in the ravine, and it's not that we don't have a home, so if you want your second uncle to take it, forget it."

"His father, Fushan is nineteen," Feng's eyes were relative: "The little daughter-in-law as big as the jujube flower has all held the child." ”

Second Uncle Wan was stunned, but he still shook his head slowly.

Wan wanted to persuade, but was glared at by Uncle Wan.

Grandma Wan patted her thigh: "I know you don't want to drag down the young lady, but you can't bear to delay the two children year after year?" How can jujube flowers afford to wait? Do you want her to marry an old widower? ”

Second Uncle Wan was sullen and didn't speak.

He had an idea in his heart. Settling down is easy to say, but there are a lot of things in it. It was through the relationship of his brother-in-law's family that the village chief agreed. But after settling down, it is to settle down. You can't always live in Hua Changnian's house, but whether you buy a house or buy land to build a house, it is a lot of money. He could see that Hua Yun was willing to help him, but this favor was too great, and he didn't want to owe it.

In the final analysis, Huayun's help still depends on Wan's face.

He, who is an older brother, did not fight for his sister's face, but had to rely on his sister to live, isn't this a slap in the face? He was even more afraid that the Wan family would not be able to raise his head in his own house because of his mother's incompetence.

Seeing that he was only silent, Hua Yun probably guessed his thoughts, so he said, "Second uncle, you can give my family an IOU." You can't delay your cousin's marriage because of face. ”

It's a terrible time. If a man doesn't marry at twenty, people will think that there is something wrong with him. If a woman doesn't marry at fifteen, she becomes an old girl that everyone looks down on. How can this make her, an old leftover woman in her thirties and a single person, embarrassed?

"IOUs?"

Hua Yun nodded: "One yard is one yard." My family looks at the affection of relatives, and if I can help, I will help. But when it comes to money, of course, it has to be calculated. Brothers, settle accounts. The second uncle didn't take advantage of it, so my family borrowed silver. As long as you write an IOU, you can pay it back slowly. The second uncle will not take advantage of my family. ”

Second Uncle Wan breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.

Feng Shi also said: "That's the truth. You know you want face, but you should always think about it. The young lady and her brother-in-law are not outsiders, and there is no shame in borrowing money from them. We are diligent with our hands and feet, and we can pay it back as soon as we earn money. Not bad. ”

Second Uncle Wan still hesitated.

Grandpa Wan drove the sheep and Hua Changnian back, listened in the courtyard for a while, and asked Hua Changnian: "Uncle, are you willing to help the Fushan family?" ”

"Look at what Dad said, of course I'm willing, Yun'er has spoken."

Grandpa Wan didn't know what to say when he heard the last half of the sentence, so he went into the house and pulled Uncle Wan out, and followed Hua Changnian and the three of them muttered for a long time, and Uncle Wan finally nodded.

"Second Uncle acknowledges your affection," Second Uncle Wan rubbed his hands: "That, Second Uncle will borrow silver from you first, let's write down the silver taels, interest, and pay it back as soon as the second uncle has money in his hand." ”

Hua Yun nodded. She has her own plans, and the IOU must be written, but not necessarily used. When Wan's child is born, if the second uncle's family is as always, the IOU will be invalid. Uncle Wan wants to save face, and the big deal is to say that the salary for helping the Hua family to do the work is all paid. If Uncle Wan's family changes his mind halfway, she has a way to make him return ten times over, and he will never dare to come out again when he returns to the ravine.

After all was decided, they began to discuss the matter of the house. Wan Shi returned to the back room, and Hua Changnian dared to come in, eager to burn two holes through the two walls. It's really eye-catching.

Hua Yun coughed: "Do you buy a house to live in, or build your own house?" ”

Hua Changnian thought for a while: "Second brother, there is an empty yard in the village, and the house can be cleaned up and lived, even in the northwest corner." ”

"That's inconvenient." Grandma Wan said: "The northwest corner is the farthest away from your home." It's too time-consuming to take care of the young lady back and forth. There is a word about something, and you have to run for a long time on the road. Too far. Nothing else? ”

Hua Changnian thought carefully: "There really isn't any." Otherwise, another yard will be raised next to my yard, and it will be my own land anyway. ”

Uncle Wan disagreed: "I just planted the saplings that came back to life, and waited for the fruit to bear next year, and if I moved it, I would die." No, no, no. ”

The yard was originally large, but it was later expanded. The family felt that it was enough, so they planted fruit tree saplings all around the yard and not near the village.

Grandpa Wan muttered: "Otherwise, buy land and build a house." If the two families are next to each other and occupy your family's land, the people in the village will not be able to gossip, but it will not be good for you to gain a foothold in the village, and your face will not look good. ”

Actually, Huayun also means this.

Grandpa Wan continued: "Isn't there an open space in the north? The north side of the main road out of the village, only one road away from your house, is convenient to come over, and spacious. It's not a homestead in the village, and it can be cheaper. ”

Second Uncle Wan also felt good: "I think it's okay." ”

A few people went to the village chief's house together to divide the land.

The village chief knew that Hua Yun was a resolute and resolute person, and he was waiting at home. It's just a homestead, unlike the Hua family who buys a large piece of wild land, they have to go to the yamen first to ask, and the village chief has the final say on his own. took people to the open space in the north, asked Uncle Wan to see the area by himself, made a mark at the four corners, and estimated that he asked for silver.

The money from the sale of the land was shared by the villagers.

The countrymen don't build small courtyards, and according to Uncle Wan's comparison, the village chief asked for ten taels. It's just base money. It's the house that costs money.

The village chief smiled: "We have to build a house next, right?" ”

Hua Yun said: "I must be looking for Uncle Chen." ”

The village chief laughed: "This year, your uncle has only been busy with your family." Don't worry, I'll let him cover it well. After speaking, he looked at the sun and said with satisfaction: "God has mercy." Last year, the snow was so big, it was really scary to death. Fortunately, this year's wind and rain are smooth, and the grain varieties issued by the imperial court are good, and this spring wheat is growing well. If it was in previous years, this time should have been harvested, and this year I am afraid that the wheat will be harvested and the Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated. ”

Grandpa Wan nodded: "It's almost that time." God give face, no more rain and no less, this wheat must be a good harvest. The imperial court has been exempted from paying for another year, and this year, it's better. ”

The two of them said a few words on this topic. The decree that came down not long ago said that the emperor was sympathetic and exempted from one year's field endowment. The people in the village were overjoyed, wheat was worth more than bud rice, and even if they could not grow bud rice after harvesting spring wheat, they would not lose anything.

It's just that Li is not so happy. Without him, the families who had put the land under the name of Hua Changzu had changed their hexagrams, and they said that they would bother Master Xiucai again next year. She received a year less in favor. I didn't dare on my face, and I didn't curse a few words in my heart.

The village chief smiled: "It's also a late harvest this year, otherwise no one will dig a river for your family to build a house." ”

Hua Changnian said: "It's a coincidence, it's all a coincidence." ”

"Thanks to your family, the people in our village are much more abundant than the surrounding villages, and they are no different from before, or even better. You've done a great thing. ”

Hua Changnian laughed.

"Hey, by the way, the grain you grow should be ripe for the first time, and you can't collect it yourself to help the village collect it, so you don't need money."

Because the land is not good, there is a morning and a late bloom, and the soil quality is also different. In addition to wheat, bud rice, soybeans, sorghum, corn, peanuts, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and all kinds of vegetables and vegetables are planted. Some grow well, some bear few knots, but they all have a harvest.

Hua Yun secretly pouted, that is, he didn't want money, and he didn't want to invite guests to dinner at that time? Wan's can't be tired.

"I still have to bother the village chief to say something, but the villagers are kind, but my family still has to pay the salary."

The village chief smiled even more happily and patted Hua Changnian's shoulder: "Hua Yun is a cheerful person, she must be in charge." ”

Hua Changnian smiled bitterly, she kept throwing silver out, of course you are happy. But he wouldn't refute Hua Yun, after all, with hundreds of acres of land, he and Second Uncle Wan were really too busy.

"While it's still early, let's go to the county seat and change our household registration. By the way, the second uncle of the Wan family, you'd better invite your village chief to eat and drink, and if he moves out of a family, he is afraid that he will feel uncomfortable. ”

Second Uncle Wan was busy, but he thought in his heart that he would let someone have a word, and wait for the village chief to go to the county seat and invite him to a bar. Otherwise, I don't know if I can come back if I can go back. (To be continued.) )
