Chapter 204 Recruiting Younger Brothers and Splitting Families
After Qingming, everything returned to normal. The three women came out of the shadows, and the bamboo weaving began to be made again under the camphor tree, and everything was back on a normal track.
There is a famous sentence in Qingming: It rains a lot during the Qingming Festival. But this year, not a drop of rain has fallen from the sky since the first lunar month. As soon as the Qingming Festival passed, there was like an extra sun in the sky, the temperature increased suddenly, and a long gown could not be seen on the road at all.
The temperature rises, the evaporation of surface water increases sharply, and Fan Dianyuan and they have a waterwheel to irrigate the fields, but it is okay, and the impact is negligible. The peasants of other villages did not have such a good fate, and the three villages in Xibei did not unite as much as they expected, but as Liang Chuan expected, the three villages refused to give in for their own interests. In the end, the three villages fought a big fight, and after the four villages fought with each other, the three villages themselves broke out into a small-scale fight, and the three villages fought by themselves.
There have been three fights in Xibei so far, and I don't know who stabbed the basket and reported the news of the fights to the county. The county magistrate Bo, the county lieutenant, and the head of the capital all expressed solemn concern, and several county magistrates even asked the two of them to lead the men and horses to Fengshan, and tied a few of the three armed fighters to the Xinghua prison and beat them fiercely for two days, and only after they were half dead did they let their families take them home.
To tell the truth, in the ancient feudal society, he could be so corrupt that he could run out of books, but as long as you dare to copy the knife and rebel, he can let you fully understand what is a mantis arm blocking the car, and what is immeasurable! Even your ancestral grave can be fucking dug up for you, and your ancestors will be whipped and corpses!
Since then, life has become even more difficult in the three villages, and the fields are drought to death. Hit and don't fight, watch other people's waterwheels use comfortably, don't dare to make trouble, a few early birds from Xinghua when they come back only one breath hanging, that look makes people's teeth cold.
The poor and tired lives are still the same.
Sun Houpu wanted to go to Hebei to sell a batch of tea after the Qingming Festival, and when he arrived in Fengshan, he deliberately went to Liang Chuan's house to talk to Liang Chuan. Liang Chuan knew that the old story was false, and he probably came to see how Liang Chuan's tea garden was handled. If the tea seedlings died, he would have to transport some more to Liang Chuan, otherwise Liang Chuan would be unlucky.
Liang Chuan also just wanted Sun Houpu to point out what else needed to be improved in the tea garden. led Sun Houpu and the two to the tea garden on the mountain.
Since the fence was installed in the tea plantation, people can see that this land is privately developed when they come to the mountain, and they will no longer think that it is wasteland. The size of the tea garden is also very clear, and small animals will no longer be destroyed in the tea garden.
What surprised Sun Houpu the most was the design of the water source. It turns out that in his opinion, all the conditions in this place are quite excellent, but it is more difficult to get water, you need to go to the water source to pick up water to water the tea seedlings, when the area is small, it is fine, the area is large, and it will definitely not be taken care of. In this tea garden, a canal was dug and a bamboo tube was put into the canal, and the water flowed automatically into the tea garden for irrigation from high to low, which was quite ingenious.
The entire tea garden is managed by a smiling old man. However, there is not even a single weed between the fields, which shows the intention of management.
Sun Houpu didn't see half of the dead and diseased tea seedlings, and the entire tea garden was full of vitality.
"If you were born in Changkeng and specialize in growing tea, you will definitely be able to create a world!" Sun Houpu praised Liang Chuandao.
"Forget it, if I knew so many rules for growing tea, and I wasn't even free to buy and sell, I wouldn't grow tea even if you gave me more money. Looking at the tea fields of this mountain, I regret that it was too late! Liang Chuan pouted and said.
"The return date of my trip to the north has not been decided, and the coming day may be a little long, I want to give Miss Zheng a gift before leaving, Brother Liang, you know Miss Zheng better, what do you say is good to give?"
I'll just say, how can you be so kind to come to see me, Liang Chuan slandered in his heart, in the final analysis, he came to soak horses.
"Just send a few thousand taels of silver and gold or something, Miss Zheng will definitely be happy." Liang Chuan said.
"Brother Liang said that he laughed, it is vulgar to talk about money, Miss Zheng is extraordinary, and she will definitely not like this." Sun Houpu secretly scolded me for being rich, but if I have money, I can't be wronged, take the money and throw it out, isn't it sick.
Liang Chuan said: "I heard that there is a gemstone in the hands of merchants in Nanyang, just like our diamond, but they will have a unique polishing process to polish this gemstone to be brilliant, you go to find it, women like this kind of gemstone, I believe Zheng Ruoying is no exception." ”
Sun Houpu was a little impressed when he heard it, the merchants of the South Seas seemed to call this kind of gem a diamond, which was dazzling in the sun, and he was fascinated by it, yes, as long as it was a woman, he would definitely like it.
If you have a goal, you will act immediately, Sun Houpu couldn't sit still for a moment, and immediately ordered his guys to go to the city of Qingyuan County to find it, and when he returned home, he just gave Zheng Ruoying as a gift, and he came a few times, but he didn't let Zheng Ruoying smile at himself, and his frustration was very strong.
Brother Zhao went home to worship his ancestors and sweep the tombs since he beat Qingming, and after he came back, he was like a different person, and when he was fine, he always squatted at the base of the wall with his hands in his hands, and his eyes looked at the ants on the ground in a daze. Unlike usual, I usually either go to the new house to take a walk, or give the artist a hand to help break the bamboo strips, or sweep the bamboo leaves and bamboo chips on the ground. In short, even if you have nothing to do, you will give yourself something to do, don't let yourself be idle, no matter how bad it is, you will fill your mouth and find something to eat to satisfy your cravings.
Yi Niang is now the eldest sister of Zhao's brother, more like his mother, who gave him meticulous care, although the age of several people is not much different, but the gap between social experience and psychological age is not a year and a half, Liang Chuan needless to say, he is a human being in two lives, and the salt he has seen is more than the rice that Brother Zhao has eaten. And Yi Niang Wairou has just shouldered her own responsibilities in this small family, and her small body has amazing explosiveness. After a series of experiences, there has been a transformation.
If something is wrong with Zhao Di, Yi Niang can see it at a glance. Because the world of simple people is the simplest, their joys, sorrows and sorrows will be written directly on their faces, and there will be no other face in the depths of their hearts, happy is happy, unhappy is unhappy.
Yi Niang killed a fish, poured a thin layer of sesame oil into the pot, and fried a small fish for Zhaodi, although it was a small fish, the fish meat was also extremely fat, with the fried golden fish skin, and it made the mouth water.
As a result, Brother Zhao just glanced at the golden fish, sighed, buried his head in his arm, and continued to squat and immerse himself in a piece of loss.
How did Brother Zhao change his personality today, he was usually the most greedy, and he was indifferent to even putting food to his mouth, it should have happened to something, Li Erhua's mind was also delicate, and she usually didn't ask about the world, but she also came to comfort Brother Zhao.
Li Chuyi frowned when he saw Brother Zhao's appearance, and didn't say anything, quietly taking the black nose and preparing to go out for a spin. The black nose has now completely betrayed the revolution, and has completely become Li Chuyi's lackey, and his master is now almost cut off from his liver and intestines, and he refuses to speak, and he still jumps up and down without heart and lungs, and he cuts everything twice, spits out a big tongue, and keeps snorting.
Liang Chuan took a small jar of rice wine, this kind of rice wine is really good, the taste of the grain is rich, and the alcohol content in the wine is not high, although the wine is not so mellow, no matter how you drink it, you will not get drunk, it tastes a little similar to the feeling of a drink, Liang Chuan now likes to drink rice wine to quench his thirst and heal the emptiness.
He took the wine jar, walked to the side of Zhaodi, and kicked at Zhaodi. Brother Zhao was defenseless and was kicked to the ground in one fell swoop.
Climbed up, looked at Liang Chuan with a puzzled expression, he didn't provoke the third brother, why did he kick himself well?
Zhang Zai shook the wine jar in his hand, "Let's go, go and sit by the stream, it's comfortable there!" ”
Brother Zhao originally wanted to refuse, but when he saw Liang Chuan wanting to enlighten him, he got up mechanically, patted his buttocks, and followed Liang Chuan, like a walking corpse, listlessly walking towards the stream.
The water level of Nanxi has dropped a lot, and many pebbly beaches have been exposed. As the weather rises and the water level subsides, many people, most of them children, are busy waiting for the dying lifeblood in the river, and there is still a lot of fun to play.
The two of them sat by the stream, looking at the leisurely stream and kept moving away, without any extra words, just letting the breeze blow their faces, and the stream overflowed their knees. Liang Chuan tore open the mud seal of the wine jar, took a sip himself, and then handed it to Brother Zhao.
Brother Zhao doesn't know how to drink, even if this kind of rice wine with a very low degree is very low, his face will turn red after three or five sips, and he will start talking nonsense in a daze.
He glanced at the jar, and without hesitation, he raised his head and the wine grunted into their esophagus, drinking so quickly that it leaked out of the corners of his mouth and wetting a piece of his clothes.
"Women?" Liang Chuan asked curtly.
。。。
"It's not a woman, what's the trouble?"
"We split up, and my sister-in-law told me never to go home again, she said that my father would raise him, but the house and land all belonged to them."
"What do you mean by your eldest brother and your father?"
"They didn't say a word."
"Are you not sad because of the land and the house?"
"No, I don't want those, I'm a person, it's their relatives, how can they take those things outside of their body so seriously, and I'm like a burden to them, throwing me away like this." Brother Zhao almost roared out, his eyes were red, like an enraged little leopard, secretly not letting tears flow, raising his head, and taking a big sip of wine.
"Drink, forget about it all, and start over."
