Out of consideration of her own interests, Ye Erniang really wanted to reach some kind of cooperation agreement with Li Wenxuan in private, but he was unwilling, after all, if he got too close to the prostitutes, it might not be a good thing. Without any whim, he knows that in the long run, it is not in line with his own development situation and direction.

On weekdays, it's okay to go for fun and relax once in a while. In case this matter is poked out in the future, then Li Wenxuan feels that it will be quite tricky to deal with. He didn't refuse, so naturally he wouldn't agree to Ye Erniang's kindness to stand in front of the stage and contribute. I didn't want to have too much to do with her, so I didn't want to continue chatting deeply.

Li Wenxuan, who felt that it had been about the same time, found an excuse and got up to leave. Ye Erniang, who went out of the teahouse with him, although she did not achieve her wishes and set goals, she was helpless. The most powerful weapons in his hands are beauty and money, and the allure they exude does not affect him, so it is equivalent to not working.

When he returned home, he first went to take a cold shower, and Li Wenxuan, who had changed into clothes, lay down on his own leisure chair under the old locust tree to enjoy the coolness. He has studied the weather very well, and predicts that this kind of unbearably hot days will continue for a long time. I thought to myself, if I don't have anything important to do, I don't plan to go out.

Su Meiniang, who heard that he had returned, had a thick stack of ledgers in her hand and looked for it. Standing two steps away, she said solemnly: "When you were not at home, the slave family met two representatives of tenants who rented our family's fields. They said that there would be a severe drought this year, and the harvest would be greatly reduced, so they hoped that the host family would reduce some of their rent. ”

Li Wenxuan, who listened carefully, did not directly express his attitude, but opened his eyes, sat up without hurry, and asked with a smile: "Then what is your opinion?" ”

"According to the meaning of the slave family, it is the rent that is paid correctly." Su Meiniang, who has been dealing with the people at the bottom for a long time, said with her long-term experience: "This year, if we open this opening for rent reduction, then next year, they will excuse that they have suffered from floods, and they also hope that we will be compassionate." The year after that, they would use the locust plague as an excuse, and so on, and so on, and the cycle would go on, and we would not be able to collect much rent from the fields under our family's name. ”

Li Wenxuan, who stretched out his right hand and scratched it on his back, didn't need to go to his own field outside the city to take a turn, and he knew that there would be a major drought nine times out of ten this year, after all, the water level in his own well had dropped a lot. I know that the tenants are not playing tricks on the job, but a judgment of the peasant family based on years of experience.

Li Wenxuan, who didn't plan to be an iron rooster, understood the difficulties that the tenants were about to face, so he reasoned with his own woman: "You don't want to make a conclusion like this. In your free time, you can go to the fields outside the city! Since it is a natural disaster, then don't make any more man-made disasters. As for their requirements, I think they can still be properly considered. ”

"It's such a hot weather, so the slave family doesn't go! If I get tanned, you'll hate me. Su Meiniang said in another way: "The mosquitoes in the countryside are particularly powerful, and they will inevitably stare at the fine skin and tender flesh of the slave family." At that time, my skin was not smooth enough, and you had to hate me. If the slave's skin becomes dark and rough, it won't be comfortable for you to touch! ”

Li Wenxuan, who finally understood, firmly believes that women's love and maintenance of their own skin is not pioneered by modern women, but has been inherited since ancient times. Otherwise, there would not be a record in the history books that Yang Guifei took a milk bath. Su Meiniang didn't want to go out on this hard trip, but it was for herself.

"Since you don't want to go, then I won't force you." Li Wenxuan, who had a decision in his heart, said: "If it goes down like this, there will definitely be a drought. As for how serious it is, it's hard to say. I think it's better to reduce their rent for half this year. If the drought were to the point where there was no harvest, they would have been exempted from renting for the year. ”

Su Meiniang, who disagreed, opened the account book in her hand that recorded the number of rents over the years, and said with her eyebrows locked: "The three hundred acres of good land outside the Li family city have not opened such a precedent in a year. I'm afraid it's not right for you to do this! ”

Li Wenxuan, who did not have a theory with her about the specific situation to be analyzed and dealt with, said with a smile: "There is no precedent, so from me, this year will set such a precedent." Our family is not short of this year's little rent to live. So, why do you have to force the tenants to death? ”

Su Meiniang, who closed the account book in her hand, argued with reason: "You can go out and inquire, there are people in this city who have fields outside the city, but none of them are like you." If they really can't live, they can lend them food. In the coming year, it will be returned with interest. As for the interest, it is naturally calculated according to the market. ”

Li Wenxuan, who heard her say this, felt more and more that he was a landlord and an old man, and he really wanted to do what she wanted, the more he looked like the evil Huang Shiren. couldn't help but think of Xi'er, he crossed his hands on his chest and said, "The situation in the coming year, if it still doesn't improve." If they don't pay back the food they lent, are you going to pay off their daughters? ”

"Killing people to pay for their lives, borrowing to repay debts, it is justified. If they really can't repay the grain they borrowed, then they will naturally have to pay off their debts. Su Meiniang, who didn't feel anything wrong, blinked her eyes and said, "This little girl in the disaster year is worth three or five taels of silver." Even if we lend them food, we can't borrow more, otherwise our family will suffer. ”

Li Wenxuan, who shook his head, stood up suddenly, and said seriously: "Mei Niang, Mei Niang, I really can't do what you said." No matter how much you like white flowers, you can't put a bad idea on them. On weekdays, they are already hard and difficult enough. Treating them like they do all year round in a disaster year really makes them lose their way to live. Borrowing usury to survive is completely equivalent to drinking water to quench thirst. The snowball is snowballing, getting bigger and bigger, and the worst result is that their families are ruined and displaced. It's too immoral, I won't allow you to do that. ”

Su Meiniang, who already understood what he meant, still asked tentatively: "What if the slave family has to do that?" ”

Li Wenxuan told unequivocally and clearly: "I will deal with you in accordance with family law." ”
