The old Huang family was not affected by yesterday's incident, what should they do as usual, send Huang Xiaosan and Xiaoliu away, Jiang Nuan is going to take a few children to pull weeds in the field.

The Huang family has nine acres of land, three acres of paddy fields, four acres of dry land, and one acre of sandy land.

Wheat is planted in the dry land in the autumn, and it is very lush, very spiritual, and now is the time to pull the weeds.

You can also dig up some wild vegetables and steam them to eat.

Several people wore hats and gloves, carried a hoe, changed their shoes and prepared to go out, when they heard a knock on the door.

"Who?" Xie Shi muttered quietly, "Why come to the door at this time, we all have to go out." ”

"I'll open the door." After Kim finished speaking, he trotted over.

She also wondered in her heart who was so blind.

Opening the door and looking at it, Jin's eyes were full of strangeness, "Clan, patriarch, why are you here?" ”

"What's wrong with the patriarch?" Xie Shi put the basket on his shoulder and asked suspiciously.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the patriarch striding in, and in an instant, he covered his mouth in surprise, "Why is the patriarch here?" ”

"You're busy with you," Patriarch Huang waved his hand, "I'll put your mother first." ”

"Looking for my mother?" Xie Shi's eyes flashed, "She's behind, and she'll come out immediately." ”

Hearing the movement in front of him, Jiang Nuan reluctantly took off his hat and gloves, then walked to the hall and sat on a chair.

"Fifth brother and sister," Patriarch Huang asked as soon as he entered the hall, "You said before that you could build a school, but you still count?" ”

"Count," Jiang Nuan lowered his eyes, "What advice does the patriarch have?" ”

"That's good," Patriarch Huang breathed a sigh of relief, "How much money is missing?" Can you cover it now? ”

"I'm afraid it's a little difficult," Jiang Nuan sighed before explaining, "I have less than ten taels of silver in my hand, and half of it is missing." ”

"I see," Patriarch Huang was a little disappointed.

If it had been before, he could have made up the rest of the silver, but yesterday, their family took out a large sum of silver, and their own family did not have enough.

After being silent for a long time, Patriarch Huang asked tentatively, "Can you embezzle the food money from the conscription side for a few days?" ”

"No," Jiang Nuan refused without hesitation, "This silver can't be embezzled, the forced labor is so heavy, there is no oil and water to replenish, the children can't stand it." ”

Her guy eats so well, all kinds of things supplement the body, the second child still loses weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, if there is less oil and water, these afterlife, can only rely on their own body to resist.

Although the villagers have all kinds of careful thoughts, she is not enough to worry about a group of children.

No one can touch this money!

"That's okay," Patriarch Huang nodded, "I'll think of another way." ”

After speaking, he left directly with his hands behind his back.

After Patriarch Huang left, Xie came over.

"Mother, what is the patriarch doing at our house?"

"Help yourself," Jiang Nuan shook his head, "Leave him alone, let's go to the ground." ”

"Self-help?" Xie Shi muttered quietly, "Why hasn't he given up." ”

She wondered, the position of the patriarch has always been in the long room, and the matter of turning the left hand into the right hand has not fallen to outsiders, why the patriarch refuses to abdicate.

There is not much difference between being the patriarch of your own son and being the patriarch yourself, so why bother so much.

"It's definitely different, specifically referring to your father and uncle," Jiang Nuan heard his daughter-in-law's muttering, shook his head and explained, "Once a son of heaven and a courtier, this principle is also applicable in our Huangjiakou, if he doesn't be a patriarch, many things will be different." ”
