Chapter 582: Disappointment
"How can you understand the terrible human heart, how can you understand the horror of a cow," Jiang Nuan sighed lightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed the cow's head, "Follow the customs of the locals, you are in human society, you have to follow the rules of people." ”
Moo!
Huang Xiaoliu was not convinced.
"Be obedient, otherwise I will send you to the palace for the second time," Jiang Nuan hooked the corners of his mouth, "Do you know what the second palace is?" It is to be castrated again, and it will be completely wiped out. ”
Hearing this, Huang Xiaoliu suddenly clamped his buttocks, and then, he glanced at Jiang Nuan in horror, and ran away.
"Mother," Xie Shi held his chin, "you seem to be scared of it." ”
"It's not to scare it," Jiang Nuan said admittedly, "Next time it dares to send someone into the palace casually, I really don't mind letting it experience it again." ”
How many families can withstand the hatred of cutting off their children and grandchildren?
The old man before said that it sounded like thanksgiving, but in fact, he didn't push his own family out as a target.
Xiaoliu should do good deeds by himself, but others don't appreciate it.
"Okay, okay."
Xie was a little surprised.
I don't understand why my mother-in-law is so serious.
Speaking of which, she thinks what Xiaoliu has done is very happy.
"Don't mention this, I'm almost rested, and I'm going to get back to work."
Without any accidents, the Huang family's grain was harvested quickly, and it only took seven days from opening the sickle, drying the grain, threshing, and entering the warehouse.
The yield is very low, worse than Jiang Nuan's expectations, with an average of only 280 catties per acre.
Of the 50 acres, 28 acres were rented out, and after deducting the rent and taxes to the tenants, the rest was only 6,000 catties.
Pitifully low.
But he received the envy of a group of tenants, saying that they congratulated the owner on filling the granary.
There are so many places, you can't see the edge at a glance, but you only receive such a little food, and for a moment, Jiang Nuan's heart is cold and cold.
No wonder some people say that the landlord's family has no surplus grain, and the output is too low.
Everyone in the Huang family, even the easiest to satisfy Huang Lao Er, was entangled in their eyebrows and complained dissatisfiedly, "This grain harvest is too little." ”
"How good it would be if you didn't rent out the land," Mrs. Jiang was very distressed, "so much food is missing for nothing." ”
"Six thousand catties of grain," Huang Xiaosan calculated in his heart, "Our family of fifty people will only eat for more than two months." ”
"More than that," Jiang Nuan shook his head, "The housekeeper's diet is brown rice and grains, and the consumption is much less." ”
"In short," Huang Xiaosan spread his hands, "it's still not enough to eat." ”
"In a few days, there will be grain to sell, and then buy some subsidies, and when the rice can be harvested, it will be much better."
After fertilizing and raising fish, although the seeds were not optimized by themselves, they were really good seedlings that Qi Yong specially found, and they would never be too bad.
No one answered this.
Although they let Jiang Nuan toss, they didn't have much hope, and only wanted her to learn a lesson and stop it.
Jiang Nuan was not satisfied with the output, but some people couldn't stop laughing.
During the harvest season, food is always a central topic.
Brother Huang's family grows wheat on eight acres of dry land, but there are seven laborers, and everyone is a good worker, and they put grain into the sky early.
"Boss," Huang Si's sister-in-law looked at the grain piled up in the barn, and covered her mouth in shock, "This year's harvest is much more than in previous years!" ”
"I estimated it," Fourth Brother Huang said with a smile, "an acre of land has reached 350 catties, which is a lot more than in previous years." ”
His family's land is all high-quality fertile land, and his family's diligent service is originally better than the income of other families in the village, but at most it is 310, which is far less than now.
"350," Huang Si's sister-in-law thought in her heart, "It's four or five hundred catties more than last year." ”
can eat dozens of more white flour steamed buns, not bad, really not bad.
"By the way," she suddenly thought of something, "when the Huang Mu family leaves, will all the crops in that field be harvested by the patriarch?" ”
"Definitely, I don't have to think about it."
As he spoke, Fourth Brother Huang lowered his head, and until now, he was still unwilling.
"Phew," Huang Si's sister-in-law took a sip lightly, "Those people in the second room, don't have a little face, you don't have to worry about taking so much grain from Huang Mu's family for nothing!" ”
"People are always a family, so let's leave outsiders alone."
"What kind of family, thinking about other people's property every day, it's not as good as us outsiders," he said, snorting softly, "There are only four people working on more than ten acres of land, and look, maybe a rain will make their plans all come to naught." ”
"It's not four, barely two and a half," Uncle Huang corrected, "The patriarch's daughter-in-law can only cook for half a day, that kid in Huangshan, he doesn't see anyone day by day, he doesn't know where he went, I heard others say that he is helping a family in Dingjia Village to work, I don't know if it's true or not." ”
"Help the people of Dingjia Village?" Huang Si's sister-in-law's eyes widened, "He's crazy?" I don't know if our two villages are mortal enemies? ”
"I don't know if it's true or not, don't tell it," Fourth Brother Huang tightened his eyebrows, "If it's true, the village can't accommodate him." ”
With so many lives separated, the enmity between Huangjiakou and Dingjia Village has long been unraveled, not to mention the patriarch's son.
"If it's true, he's too much to look down on."
"Hmm."
As Fourth Brother Huang said, the main things that the Huang family can do are Daddy Huang and Huang Shi.
However, Daddy Huang is old and not as neat as before, Huangshi can't bear it alone, and he has only cut ten acres of land so far, and there are still six acres.
Sister-in-law Huang, who came to deliver the meal, saw the tired and panting Xianggong, and suddenly felt distressed, "The head of the house, rest first, don't get tired." ”
"It's not a very stable day," Huang Shi said sadly, "There may be rain in the next two days." ”
Hearing this, Sister-in-law Huang didn't dare to persuade again.
People can come over when they are tired and make up for it, and the crops can be all in vain when they rain.
"What are you going to eat today?"
At this time, Daddy Huang looked tired, and his back began to stiffen, and he couldn't compare with his previous rich and leisurely state.
"Steamed buns and salted duck eggs," Sister-in-law Huang opened the basket, "I also cooked a pot of mung bean porridge to relieve the heat." ”
Daddy Huang didn't say much, and ate the steamed buns, very silent.
Huang Shi was not worried about his son, "What about the mountain?" Why don't you help deliver food? ”
"Seeing that the sky is not at home," Sister-in-law Huang was very angry, "I don't know where I went." ”
"Why don't you restrain him," Huang Shi's face turned green when he heard this, "The family is so tired that he can't straighten his waist, but he is idle, he doesn't do any work, and waits for food every day." ”
"What can you do if the injury is not healed," Sister-in-law Huang glanced at Huang Shi with disgust, "You shouldn't have been so heavy-handed in the first place." ”
"And you didn't hurt your bones, you can't send a meal?" The more Huang Shi said, the more dissatisfied he became, "Going out to play is faster than anyone else." ”
Hearing this, Sister-in-law Huang fell silent.
She didn't feel very comfortable in her heart, but she only had such a son, and she didn't make a big mistake, so she subconsciously indulged in spoiling.
"Don't let him out again," Huang Shi said in a cold voice, "If you can't work, just stay at home, what's the mess?" ”
"I'll try to persuade you."
Sister-in-law Huang didn't sigh.
She has said many times that her son refuses to listen, what can be done?
