Chapter 182: A Small Village Event
Gui Yuxia suddenly couldn't care about it and said: "Our family affairs are personally approved by the county lord, not to mention that we still have a marriage contract before, you didn't marry, I didn't marry, that is, we have all become a family, the county lord said let us get married, we also have to get married, even if the county order comes, we have to listen to the words of the county lord's mother." ”
What a big official the county lord is, Da Niu doesn't know, but these words frightened Da Niu. He didn't know that Gui Yuxia was the slave of the county lord, and she had to marry whoever the county lord asked her to marry. Even if she has become a relative and has a child, the county lord asks her to marry someone else, and she has to marry, which is the sorrow of being a slave. But Da Niu is not the slave of the county lord, where is the need to listen to the county lord's arrangement for marriage?
It's just that Gui Yuxia was afraid that Da Niu would postpone it again, so she deliberately moved out to scare him.
Just now, as soon as Gui Yuxia said that she wanted to marry Da Niu, her own mother disagreed, and her father and her younger brother couldn't let her mother change her mind, so Gui Yuxia said yes when she moved the county lord out. The poor people are afraid of power, this is long-term affection, so Gui Yuxia just thought about it, if Da Niu disagrees, for fear of affecting her, she will also move out of the county lord. Sure enough, this trick really worked, and Da Niu immediately succumbed.
Gui Yuxia snickered in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face at all, she said: "Brother Da Niu, the county lord will leave the capital in about a month, and if it is too late, the river will freeze and he will not be able to make a boat, so he must do his best." The county asked me to follow her to Nanyang and bring the whole family with me. He also gave me five hundred taels of silver for settling-in expenses, and I was going to arrange it that way. ”
After speaking, he told Da Niu what the family had discussed before: "This is the situation, my eldest brother and second brother have gone to inform the relatives at home, Brother Da Niu, how do you settle down in your family?" Let's find a day and get married. I'm not my father's daughter right now. I'm a slave in the county lord's mansion, so it's just a matter of getting married. The county lord will also reward me with a dowry, after marriage. You can't live at home, you have to go to the county lord's mansion on an errand. Therefore, you don't need to prepare anything, you don't need to prepare a house, after you get married, you will live in my house first, so that my family can take care of you. Anyway, in a few days, we will soon be going to Nanyang. ”
Gui Yuxia has been a grandmother in the palace for many years. Therefore, it is very simple to allocate affairs and make decisions on killing. Da Niu is an honest man and has no ideas, but when he saw that things were already like this, he was also moved by Gui Yuxia's heart for him, so he agreed, thought about it and said: "You also know the situation of our family." My parents still left me two acres of land, and I simply sold these two acres of land. Sell our house too, anyway, even if you come back to the capital in the future, it is unlikely that you will return to live in the countryside, so we will deal with it together. My parents are gone. There is only one eldest sister, who has been married for many years, and her children are all in their teens, so she is just going to be your apprentice and learn to work. You ask someone to send me a letter to my eldest sister, and I'll talk to her. ”
Gui Yuxia nodded, and the old man Gui said, "Wait a while, Gui Da, Gui Er is back." I'll send someone to bring a message to your eldest sister's house. ”
Da Niu nodded. Gui Yuxia told her family about the things in the palace and the things going to the county lord's mansion. After a while. Gui's daughter-in-law was the first to come back, and her mother's home was close. It's in the next village, so it's coming over quickly. I also mentioned some tofu and vegetables with vegetables. When they entered the door, they saw Gui Yuxia and greeted each other first. The harvesters don't have that much courtesy. Gui Yuxia told them about going to Nanyang, and also said some things about accepting apprentices. As he was talking, the relatives in the village rushed over, including the aunt who often took care of Gui Yuxia, and Gui Yuxia had to say it again. Of course, there was no mention of the five hundred taels of settling-in expenses. It's just that you can follow her to Nanyang, or follow her to learn crafts, it's better to go to Nanyang, and those who stay in the capital can also enter Cuijin Building. Now everyone is not calm.
This is a great thing for this small village in the middle of nowhere. There are a lot of surplus laborers in the village, most of them have no permanent production, and they are all moved by the fact that there is such an opportunity in front of them.
More and more people gathered at the Gui family, and at this time, the in-laws of the Gui family also arrived, including the in-laws of the third girl, the father-in-law of Gui Da, and the father-in-law of the second Gui, but the second girl was far away and had not yet arrived. After a while, the village chief also came.
The village chief is the most respected person in the village, and his family situation is better, and he often brags to other village chiefs that there are two palace maids in their village, not to mention, they are all grandmother-level characters, and they serve the emperor and bring a little money to the family every year.
Now it is naturally a big deal for one of the palace maids to return home, and, according to her brother, she has been given by the emperor to the county lord's mother. The county lord Niangniang is the richest person in Dachu, and now she wants to recruit people to go to Nanyang to make a fortune, Gui Yuxia thought about the villagers, so she came back to tell the villagers the good news, and if you are willing to go, you will follow. Even if she is unwilling to travel far and wide, there are good things waiting for her, that is, Gui Yuxia is willing to recruit apprentices in person and learn needlework from her. Who is she? The best embroidery girl in the palace, that female red technology is the first-class in Da Chu, if anyone learns such a technique, not to mention anything else, the girl's family must be able to find a good mother-in-law, and the daughter-in-law can also earn more money to support the family. Moreover, I heard that if you are willing to stay in the capital, you can also recommend going to work in Cuijin Tower.
What kind of place is Cuijin Building? Where are there no clothes for sale in Cuijinlou around the capital now? That big girl, the little daughter-in-law, doesn't dream of wearing the clothes from Cuijin Lou? Moreover, most of the female workers recruited by Cuijin Building are big girls and little daughters-in-law, and I heard that the wages are very rich. For the croppers, male labor is more important, and the role of women is smaller, but it is to help do lighter farm work, have a child, take care of a housework, etc., generally can not make money to support the family, now, the idle women in the family can also have the opportunity to work, earn money to support the family, how good is that?
The village chief hurriedly came and chatted with Gui Yuxia for a while. The Gui family is now full of people, but there is an aura on Gui Yuxia's body, and these countrymen don't dare to approach, and they all look at the village chief and ask Gui Yuxia what to say. Soon, the village chief figured it out. After thinking for a while, the village chief said: "If the family can lose it, it is also a good thing to go to Nanyang with it." You seldom go out of the village, and you don't know much about it. I've heard about it in the teahouse, and there are many families in Jiangnan who follow the Chen family, that is, the county lord's mother's house, to Yizhou Island. Yizhou Island is also to the south. Now these people are all developed, and they have become masters on Yizhou Island, with plantations and slaves. Now they are all returning to their hometowns and bringing their relatives to Yizhou Island. We don't have the same opportunities as Jiangnan people, so we can only look at them. Now, Miss Gui is back and gives us this opportunity, I hope everyone will cherish it. If you miss this village, you won't have this shop. As for those who can't follow to Nanyang, there is also a chance, Miss Gui is thinking of the villagers and is willing to accept apprentices, you see, whose family is willing to give her an apprentice, just tell me. I guess there will be a lot of them. I divided into two groups according to Miss Gui's intentions, one group is willing to go to Nanyang, and these people must be taught by Miss Gui herself. One wanted to enter the Cuijin Building, and the eldest girl said that she could introduce her sisters to teach. I'm afraid that Miss Gui won't be able to have so many people at once, so let's do it, you will divide into two groups of people and choose for Miss Gui. Clever one, Miss Gui picked it up. No, don't delay other people's affairs. ”
When he said this, everyone was convinced, and they all said that it should have been like this.
Gui Yuxia was also very happy, it seemed that not only could she summon a lot of land, but she could also help her sisters recruit apprentices.
In this way, in the midst of the chaos, everyone talked about it. Some want to follow, and some want to recommend their own girls and daughters-in-law to learn crafts. Gui Yuxia was busy answering everyone's questions, and her mouth was dry.
It wasn't until dinner time that these people dispersed, and the family was about to eat, when Gui Er Niu'er arrived with her husband and children. When relatives met, they hugged and cried. After crying, Gui Yuxia told her eldest sister about her decision again. Who knows, Gui Erniu'er's husband is a car driver, who has traveled south and north, and has seen the world, and said, "Eldest sister, this is a good opportunity." I also want to follow you to the South Seas. I still have a few acres of land at home, and seeing that there are many children, I can still get through it now, so it's hard to say in the future, so I have to plan ahead. Therefore, I want to sell a few acres of land at home and follow my eldest sister to Nanyang with the silver. ”
Gui Erniu'er was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "What about the father and mother of the family, brothers?" ”
Gui Erniu'er's husband's name is Yao Guangcai. He said, "Daddy and mother will leave it to the brothers to take care of first." In the future, when we have become rich, we will take them with us. As for our family's house, it will be handed over to the two brothers, which can be regarded as a reward for letting them support their father and mother. ”
Gui Yuxia felt that this brother-in-law was a decisive person, and she was very pleased, and said: "This is the best, the second girl can follow me to learn female popularity, and she will also have monthly money in the future." As for your parents, I think it's better to bring them with you, so that they can help you take care of these children. In this way, the second girl has time to follow me on an errand in the house, and the monthly money she earns should have no problem supporting the family. As for the brother-in-law? is a capable person, you can take the money from selling the land to Nanyang, or get a business, or buy some land, hire someone to farm, so that the husband and wife can make money together, isn't it faster?
