Chapter 510: Be Decent and Generous
More than 1,000 catties of grain, just a carriage of oneself, will definitely not be able to pull it all.
"Then bother the boss to arrange a car for me to send to my home!"
Gan Lin reported his address.
"I know Ganjia Village, and it's not far from Chenqiao Town." The shopkeeper said, "When the food is ready, I will arrange for you to have people and cars to deliver it to you." ”
The total amount of rice and noodles is 1,500 catties, and even if it is pulled by an ox cart, it will take two ox carts to pull it all.
Gan Lin walked out with the ox cart pulling grain, and only got into the carriage when he passed by the Fulai Restaurant.
She told the young man who drove the carriage, "Follow the two ox carts ahead." ”
"Sister-in-law, you bought those two truckloads of grain?"
Gan Lin nodded: "Yes, the family eats more and buys more food to hoard." ”
Return to Ganjia Village.
The man at the grain shop also helped unload the goods, and carried bags of grain into the house and stacked them before leaving.
Gan Lin saw that they were doing their best work, and each gave them a few pennies as a hardship fee.
In fact, these people are casual workers hired by the rice shop, who are responsible for delivering food to people's homes, in short, they are selling coolies, and they can only earn more than ten cents a day.
I didn't expect to send this trip, and I even got a reward.
That's half a day's worth for them!
Several people thanked Gan Lin again and again, and drove the ox cart out of Ganjia Village all the way, still with smiles on their faces.
One of them said: "This family was originally a big landowner, and it has a lot of money, but its reputation has always been very bad." I didn't expect that now that I have fallen, I can still have money to reward. ”
"It turned out to be a big landlord, how can I afford to live in such a big mansion, look at the width of more than a dozen acres of land!" The person next to him smacked his lips and said puzzledly: "You said that his family has a bad reputation, but looking at the words and deeds of that little sister-in-law, she is very generous and decent!" She poured us water to drink, beckoned us to sit down and rest for a while, and gave us a reward. The reward given by those big men in the town is only a few copper plates, and she casually gives us seven or eight cents, which is worth half a day's wages! How can a person who acts like this have a bad reputation? ”
The man scratched his head and said, "I heard from someone, and I don't know exactly what happened." ”
Therefore, most of these words were spread by people blindly, and they couldn't see that the big landlords were rich, and they deliberately smeared the blacks. This kind of thing spread by false rumors, and others said that his family had a bad reputation as soon as they mentioned it. Now we have seen with our own eyes that people are acting decently and generously, and if we hear another nonsense in the future, we will have to give people a proper name. ”
……
Gan Lin didn't know that her random move had actually changed some people's opinions about their Gan family.
She went to the back of the house again.
Yesterday the strawberries bloomed, and today they bore fruit.
Even the tomato next to it was covered with green fruits.
It looks like it's ripe tomorrow morning.
The citrus tree also had small fruits, but this one grew a little slower, and it was estimated that it would take three to five days for the citrus to grow and mature.
Anyway, I picked it once yesterday, and there are two hundred catties of citrus to eat casually, and I am not in a hurry to ripen.
She went back to the front yard and found that Tie Niu had come to play with apricot blossoms, and Dao Sui had also brought her sister and Xiaoshun to play together.
There are only ten children in the yard, and they are very lively to play together.
The older children of Dashan disdained to play with mud and sand, so they came out with books and wanted to teach them to read.
