Chapter 475: Talking about Tianming
Xiao Ding arrived home in the second half of the night and found that the family's house had been completely completed. It seems that in the more than half a year that I have been away from home, a lot of things have happened at home.
He went to the living room on the second floor of the main courtyard with everyone, and they were happy to say goodbye.
Zhao Laixi and Ou Muyun also heard the noise in the front yard and the main courtyard in the east courtyard, so they also got up in the middle of the night and came to the main courtyard to check the movement.
Except for a few servants, almost everyone in the Tian family gathered in the living room on the first floor of the main room.
Everyone gathered together and complained about their hearts. Xiao Ding also briefly recounted his experience in the past half a year, and told everyone that he is now a loyal and military protector. When I came back this time, I planned to pick everyone up and go to live in the Hou Mansion in Zhongzhou.
As soon as I heard Xiao Ding say that he would take everyone to the Hou Ye's Mansion in Zhongzhou. The people in the living room immediately began to talk, some of them were happy and some were worried.
Especially Tian Dabao, muttered in his mouth: "The house that was just built with so much money is not hot yet, and this is going to be moved out again?" I'm not going, we're a mud leg from the countryside, what are we going to do in Kyoto? There was no land to plant. ”
In Tian Dabao's heart, he was actually a little reluctant to build this newly built house. He didn't know that Xiao Ding had bought such a large piece of land, and together with the small hills, there were nearly 100 acres.
He didn't expect that Xiao Ding would use such a large piece of land to build a house.
Before, when building the courtyard wall and the houses in the courtyard, Tian Dabao had already seen that the scale of this mansion was not small, so he went to Zhao Laixi and asked him why he wanted to build such a big house.
Zhao Laixi persuaded him that now that the eldest brother is already a general, he is a person with an identity, the house must be built decently, and it can't even be as good as the mansion of the landlord of the landlord in the east of the village, besides, now that the family has made so much money, why don't you spend it!
Tian Dabao was also a little reasonable when he heard what Zhao Laixi said, after all, his son was already a general, and the house could not be as good as a landlord's house, so he didn't stop Zhao Laixi.
Later, after the house was built, Tian Dabao's family moved into the second floor of the main house, and the more he lived here, the more comfortable he felt, and his vanity was satisfied.
Looking at the whole village, and even many nearby villages, except for the landlord's house in the east of the village, who has such a big house? Even the courtyard of Landlord Xue's house is not as big as his own yard.
Moreover, since the construction of their own house, those relatives of the Tian family who usually do not come to each other have also begun to take the initiative to come to their house at this time. For example, Tian Dahua's family and Tian Erhua's family. Originally, Tian Erhua's husband Li Carpenter had a very good opinion on Zhao Laixi, but later heard that Tian Xiaoding became a general, and the family built a huge mansion, he actually bought a gift, came to Tian's house, and took the initiative to visit Tian Dabao and his wife.
This made Tian Dabao a little surprised. I didn't come back for more than ten years before, but now I took the initiative to come to talk. This kind of psychological vanity made Tian Dabao feel that his face was full of light.
Not only that, before Tian Caishen and the Zhou family looked down on Tian Dabao's eldest son, but later after the news of Xiao Ding becoming a general spread, Tian Dabao's family built such a big mansion. Tian Caishen and Zhou, when they met Tian Dabao in the village, they also became polite.
Moreover, Zhou is still asking Tian Dabao when he will take their old couple into Tian Dabao's house to support the elderly.
Tian Dabao's head was hot, and he wanted to agree. After all, it is his own parents, and this era pays the most attention to filial piety, and Tian Dabao also wants to raise his parents by his side and respect him every day.
However, he suddenly thought that this mansion was all built by Xiao Ding and Zhao Laixi, and it didn't seem to have much to do with him. So he didn't say yes immediately, but said that he would discuss it after he went back.
As a result, Zhou cried on the spot, pointed at Tian Dabao's nose and scolded him for being unfilial, and he shouldn't have been dragged from childhood to adulthood.
Tian Dabao was scolded by Zhou's at that time, and he didn't dare to refute half a sentence, and even he felt that Zhou's scolding was not wrong. Later, the people in the village came to see the excitement and talked about it.
"Haven't the two of them already separated? Why are you still making trouble? ”
"It's not just a separation, I heard from Village Chief He that they have all signed the documents of breaking off their relatives. It's not a family for a long time. ”
"Then it's even more undeserved, since you've broken off your relationship, what's the fuss?"
"It's not that you are red when you see the big mansion of Tian Dabao's family!"
“……”
The discussion of the people in the village, Tian Caishen finally couldn't hold back his face, he is so old, he is also an older generation in the village, so he is pointed at by the younger generations in the village, he still cares more.
So Tian Caishen immediately reprimanded Zhou and interrupted Zhou's sprinkling. Tian Dabao was able to get out.
After Tian Dabao went home, when he took Tian Caishen and Zhou's family into his house, there was no one in the family who did not object. Zhao Laixi even thought in his heart that this old man must be old and confused, obviously he had already signed the document of breaking off his family, and he went to take care of the people in the old house, which must be full of food.
So, just like that, the matter ended up being closed.
Now, I heard Xiaoding say that he wanted his family to move to Kyoto. Tian Dabao is naturally a little reluctant to this house.
It took more than half a year to build, and the money was not spent, so how can you say that you don't want it!
If it is sold, not to mention whether anyone in this village can afford it, even if someone can buy it, the price will definitely be very low, and it will definitely not be able to sell it back for the cost.
Li has never had any opinions, and Tian Dabao said that if she didn't go to Kyoto, she would naturally not follow.
Zhao Laixi also considered that he had nothing to do after going to Kyoto, and he relied on Xiaoding to support his family, and he was also unhappy in his heart. After all, he is not the Tian family, just the son-in-law of the Tian family.
Moreover, now the Tian family's greenhouse to make money is basically a sales channel opened by him, and he can feel a great sense of accomplishment when he runs these greenhouses.
So, he didn't want to go to Kyoto with him. If he doesn't go, Xiaoya will naturally not be separated from him. Xiaoya's personality is somewhat like Li's, more than virtuous, but lacks assertiveness.
Contrary to them, Xiao'e really wants to go to Kyoto. She doesn't seem to have left Luoxia Village since she was a child. The furthest she walked was in the town, and she hadn't even been to Luoxia County. Now that she heard that her eldest brother has become a marquis and there is a marquis mansion in Kyoto, she wants to take this opportunity to go out and have a long experience.
Of course, in addition to Xiao'e, Bai Junfei, Zheng Dieer and Ou Muyun brothers and sisters also want to go to Kyoto to see.
However, after Xiao Ding finished speaking, he did not let these people in the family make a decision on the spot, but let them think about it for a few days, anyway, he was not in a hurry to return to Zhongzhou City at present.
After everyone nodded in agreement, they all began to tell about their experiences after parting.
Through everyone's telling, Xiao Ding learned what had happened in the family for more than half a year, it turned out that Bai Junfei and Zheng Dieer, Liu San and Jiang's family had already married in the church.
The medicinal herbs planted in the greenhouse in the spring, although they were all ordinary medicinal herbs, were in large quantities, and they were eventually sold for hundreds of taels of silver. The mansion was built with little use of the box of gold he had brought back.
No wonder Zhao Laixi prefers to stay in Luoxia Village to run these greenhouses. It turns out that the income is so impressive!
For farmers in the countryside, no matter what crops are planted in the field, they will not be able to achieve this income.
This can be regarded as Xiao Ding's start for his family, and then Zhao Laixi and his family implemented Xiao Ding's plan.
It seems that the Tian family will no longer have to worry about not being able to eat in the future.
On the top of the hill behind the house, three stone houses were also built according to Xiaoding's previous plan. The stone and wood used are collected directly from the hills.
The reservoir on the mountainside has also been sprinkled with fish fry according to Xiao Ding's plan. It's just that the time is still a little short, and the fish haven't grown up yet.
Because the water is hot spring water, the pool does not freeze all in winter. Pheasants and hares raised on the mountainside also have water to drink in winter.
On the small hills, except for the Tian family, pheasants and hares have no natural predators at all, so as long as the Tian family does not hunt every day, they reproduce very quickly.
Ou Mulin and Xiao Zhu'er often go to the top of the hill to find pheasant nests, dig wild eggs, and then come back to cook and eat.
Xiao Zhu'er is now very familiar with the little wolf gray. She was small, and Ash grew bigger and bigger, and sometimes Little Bead would climb onto Ash's back and ride it around.
Hearing everyone tell about Xiao Zhu'er riding a wolf and running around, Xiao Ding's mind immediately showed a picture of Xiao Zhu'er riding gray and wandering around the village.
Everyone in the village knew that the Tian family had a huge gray wolf, so it was usually fine, and few people came to Tian Dabao's house.
Naturally, this also includes the people on the other side of the old house. Otherwise, with Zhou's temperament, since she wants to live in the new house of Tian Dabao's family, she will definitely come to Tian's house twice in three days to make trouble.
With the little wolf gray ash, Zhou looked stunned, where did he dare to come over and make trouble. Besides, now Tian Dabao has invited a lot of servants at home. There are gatekeepers at the door every day.
These servants didn't know the Zhou family, and even if she came over to make trouble, those servants wouldn't open the door for her.
Although the little wolf gray gray is huge, it has lived with the Tian family since it was a child and has long been accustomed to getting along with humans. The people in the Tian family's house, after a long time, they can be recognized, and if they know that they are their own family, they will not hurt them.
Moreover, these servants in the Tian family's house, in order to be able to gain Ash's trust as soon as possible, many of them will secretly feed Ash with meat to eat.
The daily expenses of the Tian family are now all in the hands of Zhao Laixi, and when he usually drives out to sell vegetables, he will buy some daily necessities by the way, and there will naturally be no shortage of meat.
He learned this completely from Xiao Ding at the beginning. Xiao Ding spent a lot of money at the beginning, he was still very unaccustomed to it at that time, and he would feel sorry for the silver in his heart.
But now, when he had the money in his own hands, he began to buy things lavishly, as the rich men in the city did.
It seems that people who are frugal and reluctant to spend money are all caused by lack of money. When you have money, everyone will spend it.
Everyone chatted from the second half of the night until dawn.
Then Zhao Laixi and Zhao Hu were about to prepare to drive to the county and town to deliver vegetables.
Now the sales have long been stable, and those fixed restaurants and restaurants are fixed to receive a certain amount of Tianjia's vegetables every day.
This year, there is another warm shed, and Zhao Laixi has contacted several more restaurants in the county. So, now you can send out three cartloads of vegetables every morning.
There are two cars in the county town and one car in the town.
Usually Zhao Laixi drove to the town, and Zhao Hu and Zhang Long sent two of them to Luoxia County every day.
These bandits, because they helped Hu Zhi County to exterminate Feiyun Village and captured Shi Jianduan, the owner of Dazhai, so they knew Hu County Ling. Hu Xianling knew that Xiao Ding was now a general and had a good relationship with these bandits, so if Zhao Hu and the others had anything to do, they would definitely agree to Hu Xianling's help.
With Hu County's care, no one dares to bully them when they usually go to the county to deliver food.
It's just that they need to get up early in the morning to deliver food every day, and they don't even have time to finish breakfast, so they just bring some dry food with them to pad their stomachs on the road.
And if you want to be in the snow, it's actually very hard.
However, since you can make money, everyone is still willing to eat this bit of hardship.
Zhao Hu and his eight long-term workers, the Tian family pays them monthly and monthly, and they are different from the servants that Zhao Laixi bought back. Those servants were all bought by Zhao Laixi in the hands of Renyazi, and they had all signed a deed of sale. Just negotiate the price and pay it all in one lump sum.
In fact, the eight of them didn't care much about the salary, and the Tian family treated the eight of them like their own family, and did not look down on them because they were born as bandits, which made them very moved, so they were willing to work hard in the Tian family.
Moreover, except for Zhang Long, the other seven have all been on the battlefield of Yongzhou with Zhao Laixi and Xiao Ding, and the feelings of life and death are much deeper than the feelings of ordinary friends.
Zhao Laixi is not thin on them, he has always been with them as friends, and when he gave them the start of work every month, he also gave them more copper plates than the price that Xiao Ding promised them, after all, Xiao Ding was short of money at the beginning, and he did not give them too high a price. And Zhao Laixi now has money in his hands, so he is not short of dozens of copper plates.
Therefore, Zhao Laixi did not treat them as outsiders, nor did he think that he was the master, so he yelled at them. This is clear in the hearts of several of them.
The interaction between people is often mutual, you respect me, I respect you. There are benign people who know how to be grateful to Dade.
Although, at this time, Zhao Hu and the others had saved a lot of silver in their hands, plus the reward they had received after returning from the battlefield. But they still had no intention of leaving the Tian family. is still willing to suffer and suffer to help the Tian family work.
Xiao Ding saw that everyone was preparing to set up a car to deliver food so early, so he didn't plan to continue chatting with everyone. He hadn't slept all night, trying to find a place to catch up on his sleep.
Originally, his room was supposed to be on the second floor of the main room, next to Xiaofu's room. After all, he and Xiaofu are both men of the Tian family. Definitely going to live in the main room.
However, after the house was built, Xiao Ding never came back, and the second girl didn't want to live in the main room alone, so she moved to live in a side room.
When Xiao Ding comes back this time, she will see which room Xiao Ding goes to live in.
Erniu had already planned that where Xiaoding would live when he came back, she would follow her.
