Chapter 236: Active Farming

Oh!

A glimmer of light flashed in Master Gu's eyes, an extra season's income is nothing for people with less land? For a large family like the Gu family, which has more than 40 acres of land, it is a big harvest.

Master Gu silently calculated an account, as Gu Mingzhu said, one acre of land, according to the minimum yield, one mu of wheat is more than 500 catties, ten mu is 5,000 catties, and forty acres is more than 20,000 catties, which is a lot of income.

In the coming year, Gu Minghui's bundle of cultivation will be settled, and he will harvest wheat and rape at the beginning of the season, and he can plant a new crop, which is an extra income.

Thinking of this, Master Gu stood up with a bang, "Mingzhu, you say okay, then I'll go buy seeds tomorrow and plant wheat in time for the season, Quankang, during this time, you don't want to go to the town to do short-term work, go down to the field with me, and rush to plant wheat." ”

Old Man Gu's excitement scared Gu Mingzhu, but he didn't expect that Old Man Gu's enthusiasm for farming was higher than his own.

Chen Zhilan was anxious when she heard this, if Gu Quankang didn't go to work in the town, where could he save private money and work at home, and he wouldn't have a son.

Pulled Gu Quankang's sleeve and whispered, "If you talk to the master, you will say that the work in the town is tight and there is no time to spare." Just let the people in the second room help you do it.

Chen Zhilan's position was far away from Master Gu, but close to Gu Mingzhu's position, although Chen Zhilan spoke very quietly, Gu Mingzhu still heard her words clearly.

This Chen Zhilan hit the idea on the second room again.

If you want to eat public and private, hehe! I'm afraid it won't be as she wants.

In the past, the second room was doing death and work at home, and they were stingy with even a good face, but now they think of the second room, sorry, I don't accompany you!

Gu Quankang thought about it, and was ready to get up and resign, "Dad, I have a tight plan for work in the town, if I push it off, I will lose my reputation, and I am afraid that I will not be able to find a job to do in the coming year." But I can't make money for my family anymore. ”

This Gu Quankang has a lot of eyes, saying that he can't make money for his family, who knows whose purse the money he earns goes into?

When Master Gu heard this, he became angry, and slammed his pipe on the table, "What's the tightness?" You don't have to rely on the crops to eat, and now you have a lot of money, don't you, you don't even listen to me. I can't call you, can I? ”

In his eyes, the farmer is mainly farming, and the things in the field are bigger than anything else! Don't see the double robbery? No matter how far away the part-time job is, they have to rush back, and they only leave after they are busy with the work in the fields, even if they marry a daughter who is far away, they have to rush back to their parents' house to help.

What did Gu Quankang calculate for that little work in the town?

Being yelled at by Master Gu like this, Gu Quankang didn't dare to say anything anymore? Sit back and keep your head silent.

Chen Zhilan was angry and anxious, but she could give her ten guts, and she didn't dare to contradict Master Gu.

With a roll of his eyes, he hurriedly rubbed to Mrs. Gu's side, "Madam, I'll give you a leg beat." ”

After speaking, he obediently helped Mrs. Gu beat her legs, since Li Yan hired her away, no one helped Mrs. Gu beat her legs, and calling Chen Zhilan to beat her legs was either busy, or pushing, Mrs. Gu was annoyed, so she didn't call her anymore.

This old arm and legs are much more comfortable to beat, it is rare for Chen Zhilan to be so well-behaved today, Mrs. Gu is very useful, and praised Chen Zhilan Dao, "It's still the eldest daughter-in-law who is filial, but unlike some people, she has a black heart and liver, and she only cares about living a good life for herself, and even the elders don't know filial piety."

This is a turning around and scolding Gu Mingzhu for not being filial.

Gu Mingzhu lowered his head and drank tea, as if he hadn't heard it, Chu Jingke next to him was not happy, his sharp eyes swept towards Mrs. Gu, with a compelling momentum, Mrs. Gu only felt that the temperature around her had dropped a few degrees, and she couldn't help but shudder, and immediately shut up.

She can play majestic in front of her daughter-in-law, son, and granddaughter, but when she has to face Chu Jing, the killing god who has killed countless people on the battlefield, she is immediately like a mouse seeing a cat, and she can't wait to avoid it.

Gu Mingzhu felt that it was the most correct thing to bring Chu Jing here today, and he didn't know how much it would take to talk to Mrs. Gu, and she could do it with one look.

If it weren't for the great god Chu Jing sitting here today, Mrs. Gu would have scolded her a long time ago.

Sure enough, the wicked still need the wicked to grind.

Chen Zhilan is still playing her little abacus, thinking about how to make Gu Quankang not stay and farm, so that he can go to the town to work, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, Gu Quankang has to go to the town to get some money back, save more private money, buy more filial piety for his parents during the New Year, and grow a long face in his mother's house.

Glancing at the other people in the room, Chen Zhilan pretended to ask casually while helping Mrs. Gu press her legs, "Why haven't the second brother and sister and the second brother come yet?" You see, we've been waiting for a long time, and the food is getting cold. I remember that the second family's land was planted with the help of Mingzhu, and the second family is not busy now, why is it so grinding? ”

When Gu Mingzhu hired someone to plant wheat on his barren beach, he also planted the wheat of Gu Jinkang and his wife.

Gu Mingzhu knew that it was not good as soon as she heard it, this Chen Zhilan really spoke at a good level, and after saying so many words, didn't she just remind Mrs. Gu and Master Gu that the second room was very free now, and when the Gu family's old mansion was in urgent need of manpower, Mrs. Gu and Master Gu would definitely call their cheap father and mother back to the old house to help.

There are one and two, as long as Gu Jinkang goes back to the old house to help this time, Mrs. Gu will definitely instruct Gu Jinkang to go back to the old house to do this and that in the future, and she will use the second room as a cow and a horse.

There's still a fart for that separation!

Gu Mingzhu had made a fuss before, and it was not easy for Gu Jinkang and his wife to be rescued from this dire situation, but he couldn't let the second room fall into this wolf's den and tiger's den again.

"Auntie, my father's legs and feet are not good, he walks a little slowly, and it is normal to come a little late. I heard that the wages in the town have risen, can I get fifteen yuan? The eldest uncle is doing handicraft work in the town, and the salary is afraid that it will be even higher, so there are eighteen Wen! It's not impossible for the eldest uncle to go to the town to work, and it is not impossible to hire people to do the work in the fields with the earned wages, and it is not as high as the wages in the town, only 12 yuan, and you can save 6 yuan! It's a good deal. ”

Gu Mingzhu's current workers are all 12 wen a day, which should have been 15 wen, because they were in charge of a meal at noon, and the meal had meat and vegetables, miscellaneous grains, and wowotou were all let them eat with their bellies open, Uncle Zhao and the others were too reluctant to go, so they offered to take only 12 wen a day. The midday meal was worth far more than three cents.

As soon as Gu Mingzhu's words came out, the faces of the people in the house changed, and Gu Quankang only gave Mrs. Gu ten yuan every day, and he always muttered that it was not easy to make money.
