Early in the morning of the first day of the new year, Zhao Yuan's family got up early, and after breakfast, Zhao Yuan took his family to the grave, and the deceased ancestors of Zhao Yuan's family had to go to the grave to pay respects.

The people in Zhaojiazhuang are the same, most of the graves are really from the people in the village to worship, so the queue to go to the grave is still relatively large.

A group of people chatted for the day, finished all the grave worships, and returned home It was almost noon, Zhao Yuan called a few elders in the village to his house for lunch, and was about to move to Xiaheba, ready to talk about his arrangements in Zhaojiazhuang.

When he got home, Zhao Yuan asked Meng Ying to make a pot of tea, and then cooked the family's dishes, while he sat in the hall and talked to the elders in the village.

"Atom, did you call us for something?" Uncle Zhao Chuanyi asked.

"That's right, uncle, as soon as this year passes, my family will move to Xiaheba, but my household registration is still in our village, and my family's house and land are also there." Zhao Yuan said.

"Don't worry, everyone in your house will take care of your house, but your land?" Uncle Zhao Chuanyi said hesitantly.

"Big brother, we can also help plant the land of the atomic family, as long as each family takes a day out of the busy farming, how can those few acres of land be planted, atom, you can rest assured." Second Uncle Zhao Yuancheng said.

"That's fine, you don't have an opinion, right?" Zhao Chuanyi looked at the brothers present and said.

"Wait, you better let the atom say it himself, he has his own ideas, doesn't he, atom?" Zhao Si took over and said.

"Yes, Atom said." Zhao Lao Wu also said.

"That's right, my family's eight acres of land are ready for the people in the village to plant, and they don't need to give me food. In addition to paying taxes, thirty percent of the remaining grain is kept in the ancestral hall of the village, and seventy percent is given to the people who farm the land. Zhao Yuan said what he thought.

"Keep it in the ancestral hall?" Zhao Chuanyi wondered.

"Yes, maybe there is not a lot of food produced every year, but you can save some food, and if there is a disaster, you can also use this food to respond to emergencies. Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"That's a good idea, but you have to think about it, although we know that you still have such a large piece of land in Xiaheba, but the land at home is cooked after all, and there is still a lot of food to produce." Zhao Chuanyi said.

"I have thought about it, who will plant this land, uncle, you will discuss it yourself, and in principle, take care of the most difficult people in the village."

"Okay, it just so happens that everyone is here, let's discuss it."

"Why don't you let the Iron Bull plant, the most difficult thing in our village is the Iron Bull brothers, his family is a bit similar to the situation of your family, and there are only two brothers." Third Uncle Zhao Yuanyun said.

"Yes, Tie Niu was as sick as Atom at the beginning, and I thought his family would collapse like that, but I didn't expect Tie Niu to survive, sell mushrooms and go to work in Atom's new home this year, and sent his younger brother Zhao Shuangxi to the town to study." Fifth Uncle Zhao Lao Wu should be in the village, and his family is closest to Zhao Tieniu's family.

"Brother Tie Niu is a good person, that's okay, my family's land will be planted for him, if he can't be busy by then, everyone will help." Zhao Yuan thought for a while and said.

"Okay, I'll go talk to Tie Niu in the afternoon."

"The meal is ready, let's get ready to eat." In the kitchen, Meng Ying fried the ingredients that were processed yesterday but not made, and saw that Zhao Yuan and the elders were still chatting in the hall, and walked in to say.

"Eat first, let's talk while eating, Luoluo, you and Xiaobao go and bring out the jar of wine in the house." Zhao Yuan stood up and moved the table against the wall to the center of the hall.

Beckoning the elders to sit down at the table, Zhao Yuan walked to the kitchen and brought the fried dishes to the table with Meng Ying, while Meng Ying took Luoluo and Xiaobao to eat some dishes on the small table in the kitchen.

In the hall, Zhao Yuan poured wine for everyone and began to chat while eating.

"I salute all the elders for a bowl, thank you for your help, if it wasn't for your care, I wouldn't be able to get to where I am today." After pouring the wine, Zhao Yuan got up and said.

"Okay, let's have one, and let me say that we have received more favors from you." Zhao Chuanyi shook his head and said.

"Yes, atom, no matter where you move to, you will always be from our Zhaojia Village, and besides, the place where you go is not far away, if there is anything to say, we can rush over immediately, come, drink."

"Good wine, isn't this wine rice wine?" Zhao Si took a sip of the wine in the bowl and said.

"This wine was given to me by the second young man of the ten thousand families, and I haven't drunk it at home, eating vegetables and eating vegetables." Zhao Yuan beckoned everyone.

"It's also your ability, otherwise where would you go to get to know the second young master of the Wan family, Xiaoying is good, just after a while, so many dishes have been prepared."

"I hope everyone's life is getting better and better, and the juniors are going to study more now, as long as there are a few more juniors like atoms in our village, I will wake up laughing even if I fall asleep."

"Speaking of reading, the eldest uncle, the second uncle, the third uncle, the fourth uncle, the fifth uncle, and the pole uncle, there are now a total of sixteen children in our village who go to study in the town, and there are still a few children who will go to the New Year, I am going to use that money for my younger brother and nephews to study, and this money can only be used for the children's study." Zhao Yuan said.

"This?" Zhao Chuanyi looked around and hesitated.

"Atom, children can go to school, mainly because of you, everyone made a lot of money last year, how can you let you pay again?" Zhao Yuancheng put down his chopsticks and said.

"I hope that our Zhaojiazhuang can have a few more capable people, reading books may not necessarily have ability, but if you don't read, you don't know the reason, and it will be more difficult to make a profit, so I paid this money. Of course, I don't have to pay all of the money, everyone still has to pay part of it. ”

The importance of reading Zhao Yuan knows better than anyone else, although Zhaojiazhuang is located in a remote area, the children's education can not be left behind, there was no opportunity before, but now there is this opportunity and ability.

Everyone continued to eat and chat, and the meal was almost a farewell meal for Zhao Yuan and everyone. The house bought in the town and the land under the river dam are waiting for Zhao Yuan to manage. For the kind villagers of Zhaojiazhuang, Zhao Yuan is grateful, and he is very happy to be able to do something for everyone.

After eating, the matter was settled, Zhao Yuan will be responsible for seventy percent of the cost of the children in Zhaojiazhuang to study, there are about twenty children in Zhaojiazhuang to study, and the money spent a year is about forty copper coins, that is to say, Zhao Yuan has to pay almost thirty copper coins every year.

Sending away the elders of Zhaojiazhuang, Zhao Yuan told Meng Ying about his decision, and Meng Ying also agreed, during this time, Xiaobao has changed a lot, in Meng Ying's opinion, it is all because of the reason why he read some books with Luoluo and Zhao Yuan.

"When will we move to Xiaheba, I don't know how Uncle Tao and their New Year are doing there?" Meng Ying asked.

"I'll move in two days, clean up the house in a few days, Uncle Tao and they should be fine, I left a letter to the shopkeeper of Funing Building, and I will come to us if there is something."

"Okay, I'm going to pay New Year's greetings to my father and mother." Meng Ying said.

"Remember, after the New Year's greetings, let's come back and clean up, and then move."
