"Aunt Mu, this fine white cotton cloth is for your family to make small clothes, I saw that this material is soft and smooth, and it must be very comfortable to wear closely, so I took a horse over. In addition, these four pieces of rags of fabric were sent to your family to make uppers, Mu Ying likes the red color, I specially picked them out for her...... I hope you don't dislike it," Luo Zhi said crisply.

Last night, she knocked on the side and asked Mu Ying about the process of making shoes, she was really scared, she didn't expect that a pair of mille-feuille shoes would require seven or eight processes to make, which was particularly time-consuming, so laborious and hurt her eyes, she regretted that she was too reckless and brought such a big trouble to Mu Siniang, but the words she said were like water spilled out, and she couldn't take it back if she wanted to, Luozhi secretly made up her mind that she must not treat this family badly.

Therefore, she also sent a bag of meat buns made in the morning, and now this cotton cloth and rags are also the same, this lover has a relationship before there is love, and the relationship is slowly coming out in this way.

"I haven't done this job at all, just collect a lot of things, this is not good, besides, this is too expensive, Mu Ying, this child is not sensible, if you give it to her, she will accept it, this is not good." Keep these for yourself. Our family ......" Mu Siniang resolutely refused to accept it.

"Fourth Aunt Mu, if you don't accept it, then I'll take all these back, and I don't want you to help make shoes. I can't do it myself, and it's okay for the family to continue wearing bad shoes," Luo Zhi said deliberately sadly.

"Why are you so stubborn, kid? Okay, okay, I'll take it. Oh, with the blessing of your child, a few of us also wear shoes made of silk," Aunt Mu said with a happy eyebrow.

Luozhi took a pair of Grandpa, Luo'an, and his old shoes to draw the bottom for her, and Ah Shu's feet needed to be measured, but fortunately, Mu Siniang was familiar with these cars, and quickly wrote down the size of several people's feet, and took out a trick for Luozhi to choose, saying that when he was busy with the farm work for the past two days, he would start making shoes after helping Luozhi's family rake peanuts.

Aunt Mu folded the rags of cloth and put them in the cabinet, then took a long bamboo pole from the backyard and asked Mu Jia'an to fetch dates for Luozhi and them.

The jujube tree in Mu Ying's house is very large, with deep roots and lush leaves, green and straight. The green jujube hanging on the branches hanging down in layers has been blown by the autumn wind several times, has become a faint golden yellow, some began to glow crimson, Luozhi raised his head and squinted his eyes to look up, the jujube is densely knotted with branches like a small lantern, big and round, green and red.

The green ones are like jasper, the red ones are like agate, under the sunlight, the golden light is shining, and Luo'an, who is standing under the tree, has long been hungry and salivating.

Luozhi also wants to eat it, and one of her favorite fruits in her previous life was fresh winter dates, which are crisp and sweet. She hadn't eaten a single bite of fruit since she came here.

Now it is not more materially rich and developed than in later generations, unless this fruit is grown at home, no countryman will spend money to buy fruit to eat, and if it is really that way, he will be regarded as a person who will not live a careful life, and is not a qualified farmer.

Mu Jia'an asked everyone to stand back, so as not to be injured by the falling dates. He himself took the long penny and hit the jujube tree hard, and one by one the jujube "plopped" Xiaoice hail fell one after another, Mu Ying and Luo'an saw the jujube falling, and ran under the tree to pick up a few at the risk of being smashed.

Luozhi pinched one and put it in his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes bent, this jujube is really crisp and sweet, and there is a special aroma when eating, which makes people love it more and more.

Later, Mu Jia'an and Ah Shu climbed the tree directly, picked a basket full of green and red jujubes and brought them home, and several children happily thanked Aunt Mu Si.

When he got home, Luo Zhi washed a large bowl of dates in a clay pot and put them on the square table, and the family sat around eating dates.

"Phew, hoo, hoo", someone came.

"Old man, Luozhi" Li Yayu greeted them outside the courtyard wall, and the Luo'an people had fast calves and ran over to open the courtyard door for him.

"Brother Li, it's so early, have you had breakfast? I didn't eat it, I just made a meat bun in the morning, and I'll bring you a plate," Luo Zhi said as he stood up and walked to the stove.

"I've eaten breakfast at home, but with the meat buns you made, I'm not polite to use it," Li Yayu has become a fan of Luozhi since the bowl of noodles yesterday morning, this little girl's craftsmanship is amazing, and eating her cooking is unforgettable.

Li Yayu's gag way of speaking made the old man laugh, and Luo Zhi also took out a pair of small pear vortices and went to the kitchen.

Li Yayu, who had a full meal, comforted him inside and out, "I forgot to ask you something yesterday, do you want a white deed or a red deed for this land deed?"

"White deed, red deed, what's the difference," Luo Zhi asked puzzled.

"Does the old man know?" Li Yayu asked the old man again.

"It's not very clear, I know the white deed, most of our countryside is like this, the red deed knows that it will be done in the yamen, but I don't know what to do." The old man said.

White deed and red deed, is there still so much attention to in this land deed? Luozhi didn't understand at all, although Grandpa was an adult and knew what the white deed and the red deed were all about, he hadn't handled it personally. Li Yayu was in a good mood at this time, full of food and drink, and had nothing to do, and he wanted to show his ability, so he slowly explained.

To put it simply, the white deed is also called the civil deed, and the red deed is also called the official deed. Yesterday, the buyer and seller signed by everyone is the civil deed, the civil deed sent to the county government, after paying the deed tax, after the verification of the government, go through the formal transfer procedures, by the official deed paste on the official unified system of the deed, and then stamped with the official seal, it is the official deed. The reason why the official deed is also called the red deed is because the official seal is a red seal.

Li Yayu broke this way, and Luo Zhi understood.

"Most of the transactions that go through my hands have to be done with red deeds." Li Yayu said, "There are also those who only take white deeds, which can save some taxes and silver." However, in the future, if the yamen investigates, the tax and silver will still have to be paid, and if it is not done well, there will be heavy penalties. ”

If the tax is not paid for the sale contract signed by the tooth husband, then after it is found out, the tooth will also be eaten and hung up.

"Of course, you have to do a red deed." Luo Zhi hurriedly said, "I still need Brother Li to help with this." ”

Old Man Mu also said some kind words and asked Li Yayu to help him handle the red deed.

"Of course." Li Yayu immediately agreed.

Although Luo Zhi doesn't understand what the current yamen is doing, she is expected to be not much different from her previous life. If they go to pay taxes and apply for red deeds, they are afraid that they will run the wrong way, and they will have to look at people's faces, and even spend money to get some money. But Li Yayu is familiar with the way, and he has the relationship with Li Guanya in the official office, so he can quickly and easily handle this red deed.

Luozhi discussed with Grandpa that the silver they bought the field was 27 taels and 5 yuan of silver, and they needed to pay the deed tax of 1 tael and 11 yuan of silver. Lian Man'er took out two taels of broken silver from his purse and handed them to Li Yayu.

"Then there's Brother Lao Li." Luo Zhi said with a smile.

Li Yayu was very humble and happily took the silver. Two taels of silver, excluding the deed tax, he can get almost one tael of silver, which is beyond his average income, and the family is generous.

"It's still early today, I'll go to the county now, and I'll give you this red deed today." Li Yayu was satisfied that the family would do things, so he opened his mouth and promised.

Old Man Mu was naturally full of gratitude.

Luozhi was also happy when he saw Li Yayu agreeing like this. She can bargain and lower the price with the other party as much as possible in buying and selling, but she can't save money on the money given to these people who handle things. Not only can you not be frugal, but you must also give as much as possible, so that people are willing to really do things for you.

And Luo Zhi still has a plan in her heart, she will not just buy these thirty acres of land to be satisfied, she will buy more land in the future, and she will also do other businesses to make money, it is very useful to be with a well-informed person like Li Yayu.

Luozhi took a bamboo basket and brought a basket of jujubes to Li Yayu, saying that it was a tooth sacrifice for the children, Li Yayu accepted it with a red face, and drove the carriage to make a red deed for Luozhi's family.

The next day, just after dawn, the family got up. Luo Zhitou made the buns and put them in a bamboo drawer that night, and now they only need to be steamed over high heat.

The buns brought to Butcher Zhang will be brought over by Uncle Yu, another driver for a while, Fourth Uncle Mu will not be out of the car today, he will take the ox cart to collect peanuts for Luozhi's family.

The big steamed buns in the pot were just out of breath, and Mu Ying's family of four all came over, Old Man Mu hurriedly arranged for them to sit, and Aunt Mu took Mu Ying directly into the stove room to help Luo Zhi make breakfast together.

I have to do heavy work today, and this meal in the morning should not be too thin, and the portion must be full. Luo Zhi cooked a big bowl of noodles again, and in each bowl lay a poached egg, topped with a topping made of meat puree, and this breakfast was very handy.

Luozhi stewed the pig's feet and soybeans on the embers of the steamed buns, and when he came back from work at noon, he could serve them.

Everyone hurried up to finish breakfast, and after Luozhi arranged to deliver the buns, a group of people rode to the north of Mujia Village in an ox cart.

Luozhi's family has a total of two acres of paddy fields and two acres of dry land. Half of the dry land is accounted for, and the old man Mu planted one acre of peanuts, the peanuts of this land are the source of vegetable oil for the family, and the other acre of dry land is planted with soybeans and sorghum, and the peanuts are raked, and the sorghum will be cut in a few days.

Luozhi put his hand on the pergola and looked around, many families in Mujia Village had begun to harvest peanuts, and there were people bending over and pinching their backs to pull peanuts everywhere in the field.

The peanut soil of Luozhi's acre of land is soft, and the peanut seedlings can be uprooted by pulling it directly. The four adults in front of them pulled, and the four children in the back dug with small hoes and pickaxes, and carried a small bamboo basket in one hand, and the "fish caught in the net" dug out was put into the bamboo basket.
