Chapter 114: Underestimate Him
The Gu family in Tongxin Village is the largest household, which is not unreasonable, Gu Pingyong and Gu Pingzhang brothers are very bright.
Speaking of buying a weir pond, although some people in the village are envious, most people still don't understand it, thinking that it is too waste of money for the Lin family to spend so much money to buy a useless weir pond.
However, the Gu family brothers immediately saw the benefits, Gu Pingzhang and the Lin family were close, so naturally they would not have any other ideas, and the more Gu Pingyong thought about it, the more angry he became.
Because Gu Kaiming is the relationship between the patriarch, Gu Pingyong felt in his heart that the Gu family was superior, and in this village, their Gu family was the largest household, and no one could cross over.
In Tongxin Village, the Gu family's fields are the most, and the location of the fields is also the best, the Gu family has always been prosperous, but there are fewer people in their generation, in fact, they have few people in the big house, and Gu Pingzhang's family is also prosperous.
Over the years, Gu Pingyong has long felt that he is the boss of Tongxin Village, but in the past few years, the life of the Lin family has been getting better and better, and he has felt a little uncomfortable.
Previously, several girls in the Lin family were tossing and raising silkworms, he thought that he couldn't raise anything, but he didn't expect them to really earn money.
I was unwilling, so I raised it together, and I didn't dare to say it secretly to let people know, but I still didn't cultivate it.
He was already holding back a fire in his heart, but the result was good, the Lin family bought this weir pond before him, how could he stand it in his heart?
In fact, he is just not satisfied with the good life of the Lin family, and this matter has nothing to do with the second room, even if the Lin family comes to the door to buy the weir pond, he will still be unhappy.
"I didn't see it before, this Lin Dezheng still has a few brains, and he rushed to me, this weir pond looks useless now, if it is bought and repaired, it will be of great use."
"Closer, put some fish fry in it, you can catch a lot of fish a year, there is so much land under the root of the mountain, with that weir pond, it is much more convenient to water the ground."
"In the long run, if you catch up with the dry year, you won't have to worry about the water in such a big weir pond."
As soon as Gu Pingyong said this, the Yun family also felt that the weir pond was very useful, and sighed and said, "It's useless to say these things now, everyone has already bought them, and they have everything in their hands, what else can we do?" I can only watch with my eyes open. ”
Of course, Gu Pingyong also knew, but he was just not convinced, and gritted his teeth with hatred, "I really didn't see it before, this Lin family is quite powerful, I thought the family was honest, but I didn't expect to come to such a hand." ”
Yun said, "Don't you see that? Since the third child of the Lin family and the two of them came back, the Lin family has been different, tossing and raising silkworms and buying weir ponds, which is to live a good life. ”
"Before, their family was in a lot of trouble, the second child divorced the Du family, and the marriage of the eldest girl in their family was also troublesome, who would have thought that such a big thing would have been done behind the scenes."
Gu Pingyong nodded, "How is their eldest girl's marriage?" I've heard people say it's a good promise. ”
The Yun family is a woman's family, this kind of news is the most well-informed, although the Lin family did not reveal it, but someone always said, "I heard Xiaoyan and her mother say that it seems to be the son of Tiankuo and their school master, who came when he was threshing before, and he looks white and clean." ”
"It's a good family affair, but the Lin family is also unlucky, there is such a scourge as the Du family, and it has a relationship with others, and the Chen family is also a face-saving person, and this matter is eighty percent yellow."
Gu Pingyong listened to this and nodded, "In this way, the relationship with the Chen family should not be possible." ”
Yun said with a smile, "Yes, no matter what Mr. Chen says, he is also famous, and there is a school at home, so he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and his son is also a talent, so why bother to marry a country girl, the reputation is not good." ”
"Look at it, the Lin family didn't mention this before, probably because they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to do it, and they would be embarrassed in their own family, and now this matter is mostly yellow, and they won't mention it again in the future, and the eldest girl in their family still has to talk about a family matter, and I have already said it before, and it has never been done."
Gu Pingyong smiled slightly, put his hands behind his back and said, "I'll go out for a walk." ”
When he got outside, he happened to meet Qiu Ling coming back from outside, and called grandpa with a smile.
Gu Pingyong glanced at her, "Where is this again?" ”
Qiu Ling said, "I went to Xiaojuan's house to sit down, and then I went back." ”
Gu Pingyong nodded, didn't say anything, and went to the field with his hands behind his back.
He glanced down at Shan Gen'er, and then snorted coldly, he didn't believe that the Lin family really had this ability.
What if the weir pond is bought? If it didn't get into his hands, it wouldn't be of much use, and if the Lin family really had brains, they wouldn't have been like that before.
He wanted to see what tricks the Lin family could come up with this time, and in the end, he must have smashed dozens of taels of silver in vain, and he deserved it.
walked to the ridge and watched Gu Pingzhang come back from work, Gu Pingyong hurriedly walked over and blocked his way.
"The second brother has called it a day."
Gu Pingzhang put the hoe on the ground and smiled, "It's time to call it a day at this hour, the sun is about to set, big brother has leisure, look here." ”
Gu Pingyong glared at him, "I heard that the Lin family bought the weir pond because you helped in it, you are really warm-hearted, you are very concerned about the affairs of other people's families, and I haven't seen you help your eldest brother." ”
Gu Pingzhang said with a smile, "How can the eldest brother need my help, the eldest brother's life is much better than mine, Lao Lin and their family are not helping me to buy a weir pond, but I just take it to my father's handprint, and people are afraid of disturbing my father's leisure." ”
"The eldest brother also knows that although this weir pond is in our village, but you also have to go to the government to do something, it is not easy for the ordinary people to do it, or Changyuan has the ability, I have also met some people outside over the years, I heard that it was done with the help of people from the yamen, and it is not so easy to put it on hold."
This is to say to Gu Pingyong, let him know that the Lin family is not completely slaughtered, although it is nothing in Tongxin Village, don't underestimate others.
Gu Pingyong really didn't know this, and was a little surprised when he heard this, "I didn't expect the third child of the Lin family to have this ability, and there are people I know in the county government, I really underestimate him." ”
As he spoke, he smiled again, "I said how the second brother is close to the Lin family, it turns out that this is the case, but you think too much, you pounce to help, when you have something, people may not remember who you are." ”
Gu Pingzhang didn't defend anything, he knew Gu Pingyong's temperament, what he decided was what it was, and it was useless for others to say anything, so he didn't have to say anything.
