Chapter 7: The Doubts of the Tenants

And the system said proudly in Wang Dalun's mind: "What's the matter, I didn't lie to you, you said that you took this medicine, and it was completely okay to hit ten at a time!" ”

Wang Dalun is now full of excitement, and said excitedly: "How to redeem this?" ”

The system replied: "The local tyrant bully profession is opened, and the doping exchange is unlocked, and one dollar can be exchanged for one stimulant." First Mission Released: Restoring Prestige! ”

"Rebuilding prestige? What do you mean? Wang Dalun asked in his mind.

"Because of the brainless practices of your previous owner, now you are facing a situation where you are plotted by other landlords and tenants resented you, so you have to solve this problem, this is the first step towards your career." The system explained.

"And when will the mission be completed?"

"Of course, before the end of spring ploughing, if you miss the farming time, the hungry farmers will look for you desperately. Let's do it! The system replied.

Wang Dalun was as good as a stream, and instructed Wu Liang: "Steward Wu, have you killed all the chickens?" ”

"Young master, according to your orders, the killing is over. Do you want to have a feast? Wu Liang immediately nodded and said.

"Well, everyone has worked hard, let everyone open meat in the afternoon!"

"The young master is really compassionate, a kind-hearted person like the young master is really hard to find with a lantern these days, and the big guy hasn't been stained with any oil meat for a long time."

Wu Liang's fart came as soon as he opened his mouth, thinking of the fragrant chicken, Wu Liang was about to drool, no way, this year is so bad, it's good to have white noodles to eat, want to eat meat? It's so beautiful that you don't know that the landlord's family has no surplus food.

Thinking of the delicious food in the afternoon, Wu Liang felt full of motivation and said loudly: "Did you hear it? The young master is gracious, the big guy eats meat at night, and the big guy cheers up and does things for the young master! ”

Wang Dalun didn't care about Wu Liang's sycophancy, and then asked, "How many tenants does my family have?" ”

"There are more than 40 households!"

"How many people are there? About two hundred? ”

"Well, almost." Wu Liang roughly calculated.

"Oh, that might not be enough!" Wang Dalun thought for a while, and then said: "Do you still have bigger pigs at home?" Kill me and let everyone have a good meat tonight. ”

"Young master, do you want to invite all the tenants to dinner?" Wu Liang asked in surprise.

"Hmmm! Steward Wu, how much grain is left in the warehouse? Wang Dalun ignored Wu Liang's surprise and asked.

"Not much, only more than 100 stone of wheat, 150 stone of millet. The harvest in these two years has not been very good. ”

Wang Dalun converted, according to the calculation of one stone equal to sixty kilograms, and a meal and a half of grain, so he ordered: "You go and inform all the tenants who rent my land, let them come and eat, and bring back their grain after eating, and then each of them will give them a bucket of grain." ”

"Young Master!" Steward Wu said urgently, "You Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· like this"

Wang Dalun waved his hand and said, "Don't say it, I know what I'm doing." It's not for them to eat for nothing, take it for nothing, hum, eat me, take mine, can't just me fight with others, they should also contribute! ”

In a simple and low thatched house, Wang Lao and Wang Li were cooking, only to see her in the dim house, on the light from the hole in the roof, tremblingly moved away from the broken wooden cabinet in the corner, only to see a small bag hidden in the corner, she put her hand in, carefully grabbed out a handful of chaff, for fear of spilling a little, and then carefully spilled into the pot, and then put a large handful of wild vegetables and elm money leaves into it, mixed together and stirred.

Wang Li said to Wang Lao who was lying on the bed while stirring: "The head of the house, the food at home is about to run out, and in a few days, we will have nothing to eat." ”

When Wang Lao heard this, he couldn't help coughing a few times, and he coughed while saying, "What can I do if I haven't eaten?" Wait for death! Now that I'm sick, we've borrowed all the people who can borrow money, and now who dares to lend us money. And this year, we don't even have seeds, and we can't afford to pay the rent this year, so we can only wait to die! cough cough cough Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Wang Lao coughed a few times, and then continued: "The left and right are just a death, and at the end of the day, they are going to sell their sons and daughters, you will take the dog and Sanya to sell them tomorrow, see how much they can be sold, and we will deal with it for a few days." Sooner or later, the children will die with us, look at their creation, if they meet a good family, maybe they can suffer less. ”

When Wang Li heard this, he bowed his head and sobbed quietly. And the dog and Sanya, who were staring at the pot and drooling around the side, heard their parents' words and cried and begged: "Mother, don't sell us, we will be obedient in the future, and we will work more and eat less in the future." Mother! Don't sell us! We'll be good in the future, woo woo! ”

When Wang Li heard this, tears fell down his eyes, and his voice whimpered: "God, open your eyes!" What kind of sin did I do in my last life? Child, don't blame your father and mother for being ruthless, you will inevitably die after following us! After speaking, he hugged the two children tightly with both hands.

Wang Lao didn't speak, tears fell down big drops, his mouth whimpered silently, and he beat his chest hard while crying, hating himself as a man, not only could not let his family be fed and clothed, but also ruined his family.

Just as the family was hugging their heads and crying, parting with life and death, they only heard a voice from the door, "Dad, mother, I'm back!" ”

Then a little girl of about twelve years old slammed into the door, still with a happy smile on her face.

When the little girl saw the family hugging their heads and crying, she asked very suspiciously, "Father, mother, what's wrong with you?" I am back. ”

When Wang Li saw the little girl, he asked very nervously, "Erya, how did you come back?" Did you run back? Hide quickly, and wait for the people from the palace to come and arrest you. As he spoke, he pulled Erya, preparing to hide her.

"Oh, mother! They didn't run away, they let me go. Erya broke free from Wang Li's hand and said.

"Put it back? I don't believe it, how could the palace be so kind? Wang Li didn't believe it at all, thinking that Erya was lying to her.

"Really, mother, why did I lie to you! The palace not only released me, but also gave me two taels of silver, saying that it was for my father's medical treatment. You see, what I have in my hand is. Erya showed the silver in his hand to Wang Li.

Wang Li took the silver, checked it carefully, and found that the silver was real, but she felt even more confused, and said to Erya: "Erya, you didn't lie to your mother?" The silver was really given by the king, not stolen by you? ”

"Mother! Why don't you believe me? "Er Ya was so anxious that she was about to cry," the palace also notified that all the people who rented the palace land would go to the mansion for dinner in the afternoon. ”

"Go to his Wang Dalun's house for dinner? When did Wang Dalun become so kind? Wang Li was even more confused.

"yes, it's true. The palace killed more than 20 chickens, and when I returned, I was preparing to kill the pigs. ”

"Ahh The four people in the room were taken aback.

But Erya ignored everyone's surprise, and then said: "There is also good news, just now Steward Wu said that when the meal is finished, each person can get a bucket of grain home." ”

"Ahh This... This... It's true? Hearing that you can also receive food, everyone was even more surprised, and they couldn't figure it out, could it be that Wang Dalun's head was squeezed by the door today? Insanity?

Just when Wang Lao's family was puzzled by this, they only heard the sound of bangzi outside, and after two rings, they heard someone shouting loudly: "The tenants of the Wang family have listened, the tenants of the Wang family have listened, the young master of the Wang family is kind today, please come to the palace for dinner in the afternoon, there are fragrant chicken and fatty pork, the rice is enough, and it will not wait." After eating, each person will get a bucket of food. After speaking, there was another bang, "The tenants of the Wang family listened to itΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Everyone in the Wang family looked at each other, and now they believed that it was true, and then Wang Lao yelled, "What are you doing in a daze, let's go!" Open the meat, it's too late and there is no seat. ”

"Ahh Only then did everyone react, and they cleaned up with all their hands and feet, preparing to put away the things in the pot, and helped Wang Lao to quickly occupy a seat.

Wang Lao pushed his hand and said, "Leave me alone, mother-in-law, you and Goudan and Erya will occupy a seat, and Saya and I will take our time." ”

Facts have proved that Wang Lao Yi is still more prescient, when the three of Wang Li rushed to occupy the seat on the way, they saw that three or three people were also rushing to the palace.

The tenants and bystanders of other families on the side of the road were very hot-eyed, and they all discussed: "Third brother, why do you say these people are so greedy, they have only had lunch now, and there are still two hours to leave the table, so they rush so early." Tsk, eat meat, how can the group of people in the Wang family be so lucky, I haven't touched meat for almost half a year. As he spoke, he swallowed hard.

"It's not true, why do you think our master's family is not as kind as Young Master Wang?" The third brother next to him swallowed his saliva after speaking.

"Don't think about it, who has had a good time these days? Yesterday, I saw that my wife gave the young lady two pieces of chicken for confinement, and one chicken was eaten for several days, and no one else ate it. A person familiar with the matter on the side broke the news.

"Hey, do you think the young master of the Wang family is crazy? This year, we poor people are invited to dinner! Someone on the side asked.

"It's those poor people of the Wang family, not including us!" Someone on the side immediately corrected, looking very envious and jealous.

"I don't think the young master of the Wang family is crazy, do you know no, I heard that the young master of the Wang family was beaten yesterday, I think he was beaten stupid." Someone said with certainty that in his opinion, only in this way could the reason why the young master of the Wang family was such a loser.

"Well, well, yes, I guess I was beaten stupid, hey, I think the Wang family was so prosperous back then!" Someone next to him made a regretful statement, so Wang Dalun was beaten stupid, which became everyone's consensus.
