Gu Qingyun was about to go out to work, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Gu San coming in a hurry, stopped, and waited for Gu San's arrival.

As soon as Third Uncle Gu stopped, he patted his chest and panted as he said, "Fortunately, I caught up, patriarch, I have something to tell you." ”

Gu Qingyun saw that Third Uncle Gu was in such a hurry, thinking that there was something big in the village, so he hurriedly invited people into the house.

As soon as the two sat down, Gu Qingyun asked, "What's going on?" ”

Uncle Gu poured himself a bowl of tea, and then said, "The village chief has brought the steward of the Zhao family to rent land for the villagers." ”

The Zhao family's fields are often short of water, and the people in the village have always rented the Huang family, and they will never rent the Zhao family, Gu Qingyun asked: "This villager agrees to rent the Zhao family's land?" ”

Uncle Gu said angrily: "Rent, the village chief said that the water source problem has been solved, and the rent is one percent lower than that of the Huang family. Now I am queuing up at the village chief's house. Patriarch, what do you say I should do? ”

"What to do?" Gu Qingyun asked suspiciously, what is the matter with this rented land.

Third Uncle Gu said about stopping the village chief today, and then said, "Patriarch, you have to help me, my family doesn't need to rent land." ”

Gu San's family of four people, but Gu San is idle all day long, pushing all the work in the field to his wife and a pair of half-grown children, six acres of land is enough, if you rent the land again, you can't finish it at all, and you will miss spring ploughing.

Gu Qingyun thought about the situation of the Gu Third Family, pondered for a while, and said loudly: "Don't worry about this, my nephew is just scaring you, now you go to the Gu Seven Family and let them quickly send the Lin family to the Huang family, and it will change later." ”

Hearing Gu Qingyun say this, Third Uncle Gu was no longer worried about renting land, but asked, "Patriarch, you said that the village chief will continue to prevent the Lin family from remarrying?" ”

Gu Qingyun nodded slightly, "Otherwise, why would my nephew go to the Zhao family to rent land." ”

A word woke up Uncle Gu, he didn't want the money to fly away, so he hurriedly said hello to Gu Qingyun and hurriedly ran out.

Gu Qingyun looked at Third Uncle Gu's back and smiled.

Gu Jinhao, your father robbed me of the position of village chief, and now that you have robbed my son of the position of village chief, I will never let you have a comfortable life.

After thinking about it, he got up and carried a hoe to work, and was blocked at the door of his family as soon as he left the house.

"Patriarch, we came today to ask you, when will Li Goudan be able to repay the money to us, half a month has passed since the agreed day, if you don't pay it back, we will find the village chief to comment, and let you and Patriarch Li pay the money."

"Patriarch, our family urgently needs this money to rent land now, if we don't rent land, our family won't be able to pay taxes at all."

“……”

Listening to this gossip of debt collection, Gu Qingyun suddenly remembered that Li Goudan asked the villagers to borrow money, Li Goudan actually betrayed his promise, could it be that he wanted to repay the money as a guarantor, this would definitely not work.

When Gu Qingyun was pondering how to deal with this matter, Gu Jinxiu was assisting Steward Zhao to help the villagers handle the land rental.

Gu Jinxiu watched everyone hug around Steward Zhao, so that he couldn't handle things at all, she shouted to quiet the villagers, and no one listened to her at all.

In desperation, she went to the kitchen to get a copper basin and knocked it a few times before everyone quieted down.

Gu Jinxiu took advantage of this gap and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone can rent land today, please line up, if you deliberately make trouble, this land will definitely not be rented to him." ”

As soon as her words fell, Steward Zhao said: "My lord said that the land leased to your three surnamed villages is enough to keep it, and those who don't have rented land today can go to Zhao's house to find me to rent land." ”

As soon as these words fell, everyone went to line up.

Seeing this, Gu Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood beside Steward Zhao to help.

Here Liu sat under the corridor and pouted at this scene, and then continued to eat melon seeds, a woman stepped forward and said to her: "The village chief's family, you see that we have a good relationship on weekdays, can you help me talk to the village chief and let my family rent land first." ”

The woman quietly stuffed a bag of candy to Liu's place, if Liu dared to take the candy before, and then let Gu Jinxiu do something, now she didn't dare, reluctantly pushed the candy back, "Sister-in-law, although we get along well on weekdays, but the public is public and the private is private, sister-in-law should hurry up and line up!" ”

The woman did not give up easily and continued to pull with Liu.

And Gu Jinxiu paid attention to this scene, and when she saw that Liu refused, she nodded with satisfaction and stopped paying attention to them.

When the matter of renting the land was finished, it was already close to evening, and Gu Jinxiu invited Steward Zhao to stay for dinner.

However, Steward Zhao was in a hurry to go back to resume his life, the two excused themselves, and Gu Jinxiu sent Steward Zhao away.

When he returned home, seeing that the He family had already returned from farm work and was busy at home, Gu Jinxiu frowned slightly, thinking that maybe it would be better to bring Gao's mother and daughter back, but it was a big deal to be careful.

Gu Jinxiu asked while cutting wild vegetables, "Mother, how many fields does our family have?" ”

"What are you asking for?"

He asked after putting the rice in the pot, and Liu, who was picking vegetables on the side, also listened with his ears pricked up.

"Today, I went to negotiate with Master Zhao about renting land, thinking about whether our family should rent land?"

What happened outside in the past, Gu Jinxiu usually told He Shi everything he could say when he went home.

He knew that Gu Jinxiu went to negotiate with the Zhao family about renting land today, and thought that she could not succeed, but to her surprise, she was successful.

He was very happy to see that Gu Jinxiu could stand alone, and said with a smile: "Our family has five acres of land, which is enough for us to be busy, and it will be abandoned if we rent it again." ”

Gu Jinxiu knew that her family's labor force was insufficient, and it was not easy to hire people to work now, everyone was close to their own first, after all, there were taxes waiting.

"Mother, are our family's grain seeds ready?"

He was very happy that Gu Jinxiu began to care about the family's farming, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, there are grains left in previous years, and you can take care of them." ”

Gu Jinxiu thought about his modern farming experience and asked: "Where is the grain plant, I will soak it tomorrow, raise the seedlings in two days, and go to the field after Qingming." ”

He Shi looked at Gu Jinxiu with a bewildered expression, "Soaking? Seedling? ”

And Liu looked at Gu Jinxiu, who "didn't understand farming", with disdain.

"Yes, if you don't plant it, how do you plant it?" Gu Jinxiu looked at He Shi in confusion, could it be that he was wrong, no, modern family farming is like this!

He thought that Gu Jinxiu had never done farm work in the field, and thought she was talking nonsense, so he corrected: "Jinhao, this land is not planted like this, let's cultivate the land well and just sprinkle the rice on it." ”

Only then did Gu Jinxiu know that the method he was talking about had not yet appeared in this era, "How much grain can there be in an acre?" ”

He Shi estimated and said: "If it is well cared for, there can be about two hundred catties per mu." ”

Two hundred pounds?

Gu Jinxiu frowned slightly, thinking that there might not be anything left after drying and paying taxes!

No wonder all the porridge eaten at home is rice and bran!

Gu Jinxiu said: "Mother, we will press the ...... this year"

Before she could say a word, there was a knock on the door, and Gu Jinxiu put down the work in her hand and opened the door.

When the door opened, Gu Jinxiu was a little surprised to see that it was Uncle Wang and Uncle Li, thinking that the two would not quarrel again, so let's find her to judge!

Can she shutt the door again as if she didn't see something.
