Chapter 60: Dealing with the Old Wang

"Patriarch, you also know that my grandmother is a somewhat domineering person, and she worries about everything for our family to live well. I hunted wild boars last night, and if she had known about it, she would have asked me to hand over the money. ”

"If I have no other use, I will pay it when I pay it, and the money will be used on our own family. But now that we are expanding the house, Akan is studying, and this is a time when money is needed everywhere, if all the money is taken away by my grandmother, I am afraid that it will ......"

Lin Ruan looked embarrassed and looked at the patriarch with a begging expression.

When the patriarch thought of the bastard appearance of the old Wang clan, he immediately frowned. The child's worries are not unreasonable, just the old Wang's eccentricity to the armpit, maybe he is already waiting in front of Lin Ruan's house at this time.

I have to say that the patriarch guessed really accurately.

"You can expand the house with confidence, and I will come forward for you in this matter."

Lin Ruan hurriedly stood up and pulled Xiuxiu and the others to bow to the patriarch.

"Thank you, Patriarch."

After getting the patriarch, Lin Ruan carried another piece of meat to Li Zheng, and not surprisingly, Li Zheng also agreed to Lin Ruan's request to help suppress the old Wang clan.

Of course, they are not talking about repression, but exhortation.

Persuade Lao Wang to be a person.

After working for half a morning, Lin Ruan finished things and breathed a long sigh of relief.

If it weren't for Lin Han's reputation in the future, according to her temper, who dared to ask for money, she would directly open it and kill her.

Now you have to do some small things everywhere, it's really troublesome and aggrieved!

At the end of the day, she's not a deterrent enough.

She has to think of a way to shock the old Wang family, otherwise no matter what she wants to get in the future, she will have to get it through like this, which will be too fatal.

But for now, this matter will be put aside, and she has to quickly find Uncle Zhou to help contact the people who build the house.

Carrying the remaining ten catties of pork, Lin Ruan arrived at Zhou's house.

As soon as Aunt Zhou saw the meat in her hand, she said, "I gave such a big piece last night, why did you bring another piece?" ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "There were so many people watching last night, and I wasn't embarrassed to cut Uncle Zhou more." So I specially asked the butcher to keep a piece and bring it to you today. ”

"On this hot day, where can you eat so much meat? Take it back and keep it for yelves. ”

Where is the reason to carry the things back.

Lin Ruan went straight to the kitchen of Aunt Zhou's house, "If you are afraid of spoilage, your aunt will send some to your grandmother's house and ask them to try it too." ”

When Aunt Zhou heard this, her heart was moved. Ah Ruan, this child, is a good one, as long as others help her once, she will always remember the love of others.

"By the way, auntie, where is my uncle, are you at home?"

"I turned the ground in the vegetable garden in the back, and it was raining, so I asked him to turn the ground out and sprinkle some rapeseeds, so that he could still have some vegetables to eat before winter. What's wrong, you're looking for him? ”

Lin Ruan nodded, "There's something I want to trouble him." ”

"Okay, you sit, I'll call him."

Aunt Zhou said that she was about to leave.

"Auntie, I'll just go with you, you don't have to call the uncle over, and you won't delay his work."

followed Aunt Zhou to the vegetable garden in the backyard, Uncle Zhou and Zhou Dalang were turning the ground, and Qin followed behind the two to clean up the grass roots.

Seeing Lin Ruan coming, several people greeted her with a smile.

"In charge, Ah Ruan has something to do with you."

When Uncle Zhou heard this, he hurriedly put the hoe out of the field.

"Uncle, you don't have to come out, you just listen while you do."

"Okay, you say, what's the matter?"

"I want to expand the house, but I don't know where to hire someone, I want to trouble Uncle you to help me run errands, do you think it's okay?"

Uncle Zhou was a little surprised, "Expand the house? ”

Lin Ruan nodded, "I hunted some pheasants and hares a few days ago, and saved some scattered silver, yesterday's wild boar was more than eight taels, a total of ten taels, I don't know if it's enough?" ”

"How many are you going to expand? What does it look like? ”

"I want to expand the three rooms, divided into four small and one large, with brick walls and tile roofs."

Uncle Zhou calculated carefully, frowned and said, "In this way, I'm afraid that ten taels of silver is not enough, at least twenty taels must be prepared." ”

Lin Ruan has already saved hundreds of taels of silver in his hands, and money is not a problem.

"The matter of silver, I will slowly think of a way, it really can't be done, first sell some of the buds that have been laid, but the house can not be delayed any longer. Otherwise, if the money is in my hand, I am afraid that sooner or later my milk will be snatched away. ”

In front of the Zhou family, Lin Ruan had nothing to say, and he didn't have so many scruples.

The Zhou family also knew the urine nature of the old Wang family, so Uncle Zhou nodded.

"Okay, I'll go find you someone in the afternoon, but the start of work will have to wait at least next month, after all, the wheat will be sown in a few days, and the craftsmen at this time will not take the work. You can go to the house first and find out how many bricks and tiles you need. As for the silver, when the time comes, I will slowly figure out a way, it is all from the villagers, and it doesn't matter if I owe a little. ”

Lin Ruan smiled and nodded, "That's okay, then I'll bother the uncle." ”

"It's nothing, it's not easy for you brothers and sisters, and we can't help much, but we can still run errands."

Coming out of Zhou's house, Lin Ruan took Xiuxiu back to the old house quietly, and with good eyesight, he saw Lao Wang sitting in front of the courtyard from afar, and he refused to leave if he couldn't wait for her.

Xiuxiu was a little scared, pulled the corner of her clothes, and said timidly, "Sister, the milk is guarding there, we will definitely be scolded when we go home." She's definitely going to come and steal the silver. ”

Lin Ruan stretched out his hand and patted her head, "Don't be afraid, Sister has a way to treat her." ”

Let Xiuxiu find a shade to sit and wait for her, and she will take a detour to approach the old house.

Lao Wang's more than fifty people, when he was young, he lit the lamp at night to do needlework, and his eyes were burned, so his eyesight was not very good, and he didn't find Lin Ruan hiding ten meters away.

Today's weather is exceptionally good, the autumn tiger is full of power, she has been waiting here for almost a morning, thirsty and hot, not to mention how angry she is.

I was irritable, and suddenly I felt a cold swish in my back.

Strange comfortable.

Lao Wang rubbed back, and as soon as he muttered in his heart, he found that the thing on his back could move!

People born in rural areas still have some common sense.

Lao Wang's hair immediately stood on end, and he cautiously turned his head to take a closer look, only to see a flower snake with the thickness of his wrist hanging on the courtyard door.

Women, they are afraid of this thing, even if it is a shrew with explosive combat effectiveness, there are no exceptions.

With a "whoop", Lao Wang bounced away from the door with a neat skill that was extremely inconsistent with her age, and his face turned pale with fright.

However, the old Wang family has been in the township for more than 50 years, and although he is afraid of snakes, he will not let a non-poisonous flower snake scare away.

After all, the charm of silver, which can be diluted by a snake!

So the old Wang just retreated to a safe distance, picked up a piece of mud, and threw it at the snake in an attempt to scare it away.

Who knew that the snake actually slid down from the door slowly, circled around the ground, and went straight to the old Wang's family.
