Chapter 31: Looking for Lizheng
Wan'er is still right, it's useless to be anxious now.
But having said that, Shen Zhao'er was still anxious all day long.
looked at Shen Da's face and got angry, so he simply turned around and ignored her, and then he was going to go to the Lantern Festival with Wan'er to participate in the Lantern Festival, so he didn't have to see Shen Da, it was really out of sight.
Shen Da also knew that he had provoked these two daughters this time, and even Shen Zhao'er, who was usually very talkative, treated him like this.
When he gambles, his brain is hot, and he may do very irrational things, and his brain is somewhat clear.
When his two daughters went to the Lantern Festival, he stayed at home quietly and chopped the firewood piled under the eaves.
The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is very lively, there are a lot of people coming and going, and there are also many people who guess the lantern riddles, and you can take the lantern away if you guess correctly.
Shen Wan'er took a look, most of these lantern riddles are not difficult, but there are not so many people who can read in this kind of place, let alone guess the lantern riddles, so many people go to see the excitement, and if they want the lanterns, they directly pay for them themselves.
"Miss Shen."
Jun Enyan's voice sounded, and Shen Wan'er turned her head away and looked at him in surprise.
"Why are you here?"
"I heard that the Lantern Festival lanterns here will be good, so I came here to take a look."
Shen Wan'er didn't say anything, but in her heart, she felt that Jun Enyan's reason was not tenable at all.
After all, Jun Enyan is the Lantern Festival in the city who lives in the city, I don't know how much better it is than the Lantern Festival in this town, and it is much more lively.
"It turned out to be Childe's ......"
Shen Zhao'er's face was full of shyness, a picture of a girl with spring.
When Shen Wan'er saw him like this, she felt strange in her heart, so she simply turned her head out of sight and turned her head to look at the lantern riddle.
Jun Enyan didn't have any expression for Shen Zhao'er's appearance, only nodded lightly, and continued to talk to Shen Wan'er.
The two of them said a word about these riddles, and Shen Zhao'er wanted to interject but couldn't.
Although she recognized some words, she rarely read poetry books, and such riddles were blind and she couldn't guess anything.
For example, Shen Wan'er, in the past few months, she has not only studied medicine, but also learned a lot of words, and it seems that she has read several poems.
Jun Enyan was surprised to find that Shen Wan'er seemed to have read a lot of books, at least most of the riddles on the lamp could be guessed, and she could also read a few lines of poetry.
Her origin, Jun Enyan, also knows more or less that there is such a gambler father, who has never read any books in his life, but he didn't expect myths, but not only has he read books, but he seems to read well.
"How many years have you been studying?"
"It didn't take a few years, but I knew how to read when I was studying, and I also liked to read, so I read some poems and other books sporadically."
"Other books? Like what? ”
Shen Wan'er mentioned a few books that are more commonly used in this world.
In fact, Shen Wan'er also bought two miscellaneous books to read, but the miscellaneous books in this world were really not exciting enough, and she couldn't arouse much interest after reading them, so she put them aside.
Jun Enyan appreciates Shen Wan'er more and more, you and I say a word, and they talk very well.
On the other side, he tried to interject several times, but found that he couldn't understand what these two people were saying, and he couldn't interject if he wanted to, and then Jun Enyan continued to speak, and he could only watch from the side.
When the Lantern Festival began to disperse, several people had an extra lantern in their hands, which they got by guessing the lantern riddle.
"It's getting so late now, I'll send you back, it's not safe for two girls to go back alone."
"Then it's going to be troublesome."
Shen Wan'er wanted to refuse, but she didn't expect Shen Zhao'er to move much faster than him, so she immediately agreed, there was no way, and it was not good to refute her sister's face in front of outsiders, so she could only thank Jun Enyan.
Recently, the snow has melted, and the road back to the village is not very easy, but it is even more difficult to walk, and it is night, so it is even more difficult.
"I knew I would have rented a carriage to take you back, and it was really difficult to walk on foot like this."
"It's nothing, the road from the town to the village is like this, I'm used to it, it's just that the road is very slippery these days, so you need to be extra careful, in case you are not careful, you will slide down directly."
Shen Wan'er had long wanted to repair the road from the town to the village, but repairing the road was not a trivial matter, and Li Zheng had never organized road repair.
If there is something wrong on the road, and some people in the village can't stand it, they come and repair it with a hoe, put a few stones underneath, and sprinkle some mud on it, and the road will be a little easier to walk.
It was not only the two sisters who went to see the Lantern Festival in Peony Village, but also other people, some of whom recognized them and came forward to say hello.
The lantern is not too bright, so I don't see what Jun Enyan looks like, if there is anyone who asks, he will send it away without saying that he is not from Peony Village.
After being sent to the entrance of the village, Shen Wan'er remembered Shen Da at home, and she really didn't want Shen Da to see Jun Enyan again.
"Childe, just send it here, I'm tired of you, and send our sisters back."
Jun Enyan glanced behind Shen Wan'er, didn't say anything, and said goodbye cleanly.
When I got home, when I heard the sound of them coming back, Shen Da immediately came over with a smile, and the expression on his face was extremely flattering, "I boiled hot water for you two sisters, go wash your face, and then burn your feet to sleep, and you can sleep better by scalding your feet." ”
Shen Wan'er didn't look at him, and went directly to the stove house, although she didn't want to deal with Shen Da, but the hot water that Shen Da boiled was still used, and when she went to bed, she really felt that her feet were warm.
The next day, she got up early in the morning and went to Lizheng's house.
There was also a famous bully Xiong San in the village, Lin Dazheng was startled when he saw Xiong San at first, after all, Xiong San's bully image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he is ready to do something.
But after Shen Wan'er sat down and told the things one by one, Lin Dazheng relaxed a little, it turned out that he didn't come to deliberately find fault, that's good.
"How is it possible to plant all the medicinal herbs you mentioned in the village? So many people in the village are living on the things that come out of these fields, and if all the medicinal herbs are planted, then what will we eat and wear? Lin Dazheng listened to Shen Wan'er's words with a suspicious face.
"Lizheng, I think you also know that the incense in the town is full of the city, this is my partnership with Xiong San, now we are preparing to open a branch in the city, and then we are also planning to open a restaurant in the city, the ingredients of the restaurant dishes need to be these kinds of medicinal materials I said, you can rest assured, planting these medicinal materials will definitely be much more cost-effective than growing vegetables, if you don't believe it, we can also sign an agreement in advance, there is incense floating all over the city, what are you worried about?"
"It's not that I'm worried here, but what you said is really a bit unreliable, we have never planted those medicinal herbs, what if they are bad, I don't know if they can grow out, waste so much time, if they don't grow at all, then our time will not be wasted? The whole family is going to drink the northwest wind. Lin Dazheng didn't believe what Shen Wan'er said at all.
If Xiong San hadn't watched from the side, Lin Dazheng would definitely not have thought about Shen Wan'er's words, and directly refused.
But there is a Xiong San here, and he can't refuse it directly, otherwise Xiong San will get angry, and if he beats him up, it will be worth the loss.
This is also the purpose of Shen Wan'er calling Xiong San over today, and it also makes Lin Dazheng not reject her outright and drive her out.
I have to say that Xiong San is still very useful in many cases, at least because of Xiong San's deterrence in the first few months, so Shen Dacai did not continue to gamble, but when she thought that Shen Da owed 100 taels of silver a few days ago, Shen Wan'er wanted to scold him fiercely.
100 taels of silver or something must be able to afford it, but if it is repaid like this, Shen Da will inevitably have a kind of dependence mentality, and the more she owes at that time, the more she owes, will she pay it back or not?
"It turns out that you are worried about this, don't worry about this, if you don't worry, you can sign an agreement with us, after each family has planted, I will give 100 yuan per acre, and each family will plant according to the method I said, if all the people in the village have not planted it, then I will compensate one or two pieces of silver per acre."
"If it's all planted, then calculate it according to the yield, you can set a quantity, if the planting is too small, I can make up some money, but in order to prevent someone from stealing and cheating, so we still need to talk about it in this regard."
Lin Dazheng listened carefully to Shen Wan'er's words, and found that there was still a certain amount of action in this matter, maybe after all, Shen Wan'er promised that even if nothing could be grown, she would compensate.
With these compensations, you can also recover the consequences caused by the failure of the grain harvest in the field.
But the key is, does Shen Wan'er really have so much money?
Lin Dazheng said all his concerns, and Shen Wan'er glanced at Xiong San on the side, "I have already said before, Xiangpiao City is opened by me and Xiong San in partnership, and I have a lot of income, so I can bear the money If you don't believe it, we can write a contract, and you can write it door to door, some people don't know how to read, so they are tired of you helping to stare at it." ”
"This matter is too big, you give me a few days and I'll think about it."
Shen Wan'er is naturally not in a hurry now, and there is still a little time before spring ploughing, which is enough to think about it.
"You should think about it there, I have already said the conditions and sincerity, if you agree, maybe the whole village will become rich."
Lin Dazheng was a little amused when he heard Shen Wan'er's unashamed words, "You kid, you're not very old, but your tone is not small. ”
