Although it is going to rain on this day, I can't complain. But she also understands that this time the rain is an opportunity. Didn't do it well, that was. If it's done, that's a success, and when the time comes, your own masters will definitely make Du Yi look at it differently!

When Wang Tiezhu heard his mother-in-law's words, he nodded and didn't say a word. Now where is there still extra time to chat, this has time, it is better to cut two more rice.

Doe walked anxiously around the house, her heart rising as the rain grew heavier. The hope from this year to next year depends on this food, but there must be no trouble.

Liu came back, took people with him, and transported a lot of firewood. It's just that it's all wet, so Du Yi asks the hot people to pile up in the firewood room, and opens the door to let the air dry.

"Yiyi, when I came back from the road just now, I was thinking, do we have to sell a batch of ducks we raise? And the fish in the field, which is not small, must be caught and sold. The rain is so heavy that if it continues like this, the fish will be washed into the river. ”

Du Yi spent a lot of money on the fry. When I first bought it, I bought the fish with a bigger head.

"Okay, I'll discuss this matter with Boss Yu when I go back. Mother, someone has already come back from picking up food one after another. You take them, spread out the grain, and spread it out. The hall has been cleared out, and people will be picked there first. ”

Liu nodded and walked towards the hall. This grain is a big deal, and so much money has been spent this year, the key is to look at this time. God really doesn't open his eyes, it rains at this time, which really kills the peasants. If this continues, the rice that is still a few days away from ripening will be destroyed.

Most of the fruit in the orchard was ripe, but Doe didn't ask anyone to pick it while it was raining. Fruits on rainy days will be missing sugar. She figured that even if she picked it back, it wouldn't taste as good as before.

But she was the only one in the family who thought like this, and Liu and the others were anxious: "Yiyi, those fruits, if you don't pick them back, they will be beaten down by the rain!" ”

Du Yi still shook his head, this rain is not good, sometimes it is big and sometimes it is small. Even if it's not good to pick it back now, it's better to look at it slowly, and if it still doesn't work by then, just make it all the fruit.

"Why don't you know how important it is? When the fruit falls to the ground, it is worthless. Take advantage of the fact that today's rain is not very heavy, quickly call some people to pick it to minimize some losses. ”

Seeing Du Yi's resolute attitude, Liu was anxious. It's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry, and this kid has never farmed, where is the coincidence.

"Mother, let's keep it for now. Wait, wait, I can't see if the sun will come out in two days. "How can Du Yi not be in a hurry, she has spent a lot of money on the fruit tree.

Liu knew that Du Yi didn't listen to what he said, and looked at Liu Dazhu helplessly.

"Yiyi, you listen to Dad, let's pick the red and dates in the mountains or something, let's pick them back first. Dad knows what you're worried about, those few don't affect much, it shouldn't be anything. They are responsible for the affairs of the fields, and they are responsible for the iron pillars. The orchard is also okay for our own family to pick. ”

Doy frowned, thinking that the hawthorn could be picked first. That one can be left at home, made into hawthorn sauce and stored first, and then taken out and sold in winter.

"Okay, I'll pick the red in the mountains first, but don't go to Dad. On a rainy day, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and there are people in this house to watch, so you and Peach Blossom will stay at home. ”

Liu Dazhu opened his mouth, wanting to say that he was going. But then I think about it, someone will send the food in this house one after another, and someone really needs to see this. The dried grain had to be sent to the cellar for storage, and he nodded instantly.

The Liu family continued one after another, and it took a total of ten days to put away the grain, hawthorn and other things. But God doesn't open his eyes, the rain still doesn't stop!

As everyone expected, this rain continued to fall for more than half a month. The villagers of Liujia Village complained bitterly. The rice is ripe, but the sky is not beautiful, and the next tick does not stop. Every family braved the rain to harvest the crop, but in the end, some of the grain sprouted, which made them feel more distressed than their lives.

You can hear people scolding everywhere, but the sky is not clear, and they can't help it.

A few acres of land of the Liu family, when they were harvested, because there was no place to dry at home, some of them still sprouted and were used by the Liu family to feed the chickens. Liu Dazhu and Erlang wrinkled their faces, in previous years, they didn't even have rice, but now they use it to feed chickens, which makes the two of them who have been farming all their lives feel distressed.

The village chief sighed at home, but today the losses were more than before. As soon as he went out, he could see the villagers wrinkling their faces, how could he, as the village chief, be happy.

"Dad, I'm afraid it's not going to be a good time this year! The people in our village are a little better, every family has earned some money from Miss Du, and the remaining grain in the field can be kept for their own consumption. It's just that the days of some villages around here are afraid that it will not be possible. ”

Liu Wang followed behind Du Yi and Erlang and others this year, and saw these situations very clearly, plus his father was the village head, so he understood more thoroughly than others.

"Yes, we have to pay all the food and the human tax by November. I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will either sell my sons and daughters, or I will go to hard labor. This time, I don't know how many people will come back alive! ”

The village chief sighed, deep down he was grateful to Duyi. It's just that he can't be happy when he sees that life is not good in the surrounding villages.

Last year, it was a loss to Duyi, and this year it is still thanks to her. Fortunately, he was not afraid of things at the beginning, and he did not embarrass her more, otherwise the villagers of Liujia Village this year may be the same as those in other villages.

"Dad, can we just watch like this?" Liu Wang couldn't bear it just thinking of that scene.

"We don't have the ability to do it ourselves, so what can we talk about whether to help or not." Nowadays, as long as the people of Liujia Village can afford to pay those taxes, it would be good to have a mouthful of food, where can they ask for so much.

Liu Wang thought about it, and finally asked cautiously: "Dad, you said that we asked Du Yi to reach out and pull everyone, okay?" Her family has a big business, and she can afford to buy a mountain, so let her take out some silver first to help everyone survive this disaster, okay? ”

As soon as the village chief heard this, he raised his hand and slapped Liu Wang's head fiercely, and said with a little hatred: "What do you want!" ”

Liu Wang was a little aggrieved, his brain was very good, but his experience was not as deep as that of the village chief, and his honest and honest nature made him feel that this was not impossible. Especially when the child's mother is worried about his face and tells him about his mother's family affairs, where can he take care of so much.

In the affairs of his mother-in-law's family, his family can still take a hand, but his daughter-in-law's family still has a lot of relatives, even if he wants to take care of it, he can't manage it. Under the persuasion of his daughter-in-law, he had this idea.

"I'm not wrong, why not. If you look at the gifts given by others when you moved, take out any of them, which is enough for many people to eat and drink for a year. ”

When the village chief heard this, he stretched out his hand again and patted him on the head: "Did your daughter-in-law say something to you again?" You have soft ears, is what your daughter-in-law says? You don't want to think about what I told you back then. Those things that people give, but can they be sold or given away at will? Do you know who sent those and what the origin is? ”

The village chief himself didn't know the bottom of his heart, mainly because when Du Yi was harvesting grain before, the people brought by Yu Ziheng were not ordinary people at first glance. Coupled with Du Yi's own special identity, even if she is willing to give out those things of hers, he will not dare to use them!

"Daddy, do you know where it came from?" Liu Wang was in high spirits when he heard this. Du Yi is his master's family, and if the master's family has the ability, he will be happy in his heart.

"What is the origin, you don't care how much. You just have to learn something from her every day, and you don't care about the rest. I warn you, you are not allowed to give me soft ears in the future, whatever your daughter-in-law says, if I find out, you all get out of this house for me. ”

For the first time, the village chief felt that his son was so useless. I don't know if it was right or wrong to send him to Duina in the first place. Hey, my son is older, he can't take care of it, and he doesn't even listen to Lao Tzu's words!

Liu Wang was startled, and only then did his mother-in-law's brain, which was blown by his mother-in-law, gradually become clear.

"Dad, what is the origin of this Doy? Now that the villagers are like this, do we just leave it alone? ”

"You don't care what you do, just take care of our own villagers. As for the villagers in other villages, we can't control it. If they are diligent and duty-oriented, when Du Yi wants to recruit people, they can consider those villagers, but the premise is to take care of our Liujia Village first. ”

The village chief has already made up his mind, and this son will be beaten from time to time in the future. A big man, how can he do it if his ears are messed up, and if he says it, he will be laughed at.

Liu Wang nodded, looked at the hour, and walked out: "Dad, I'll go to Liu's house!" It's time to collect the things in the orchard, and I'll discuss it with Miss Du. Dad, if they still let you be the master and hire someone this time, you can see if you can call some people from other villages to help, especially if you can't live that kind of life. ”

The village chief nodded, and after watching his son go out, his brows furrowed more and more, and finally sighed. Du Yi had revealed the news to him before, and by the end of the year, he would indeed have to recruit some people to work. But what he wants are people who are diligent in his own village, and he is not easy to speak in this village. This year, because of this rain, every household is also anxious, if you invite others at this time, the villagers may have opinions.

"Girl, as soon as the sun is shining these days, I can see that the fruit can be picked. Should we ask some people to help, a few days later, I'm afraid this fruit will fall. ”

Liu Wang was in a hurry, he was looking for the person who managed the orchard at the beginning, but during this time, she came to consult the girl about the orchard, and she felt a little like crowding out that person in disguise, I don't know if the girl would think about it.

Du Yi looked up at Liu Wang and didn't say a word.

"But the girl thinks something is wrong?" Liu Wang asked a little cautiously.

"Liu Wang, do you remember what I asked you to do? The orchard is not your business, and you should not set your sights on it. If you want to manage it, you will only be in charge of the orchard in the future, and you will not have to participate in other things in the future. ”

Du Yi was a little disappointed with Liu Wang, who had been mediocre and had spent too much time focusing on the orchard.

"That's not what I meant, girl. I mean...... I mean, the people in the surrounding villages are having a hard time right now. If the girl wants to hire someone, can you consider them, I, I just can't bear to watch them sell their sons and daughters, go to serve in forced labor, and finally die in a foreign land! ”

Liu Wang's face turned red because he was in a hurry to explain. It seems that his father understands that he just needs to follow Du Yi to reach out and learn something. It's too much now, and it's not Duyi's expectations of him, so I think I'm a little disappointed now, so I'll say so.

As soon as Liu heard Liu Wang's words, how could he not know his careful thoughts, so he said: "Ah Wang, it's not that my aunt is ruthless, I don't care about those villagers. It's just that you also know that all the money of our family Yiyi has been spent. During this time, I spent a lot of money to invite the villagers, and now I don't have any extra money to help others. You said you want to help them, but we don't understand. It's just that our family can only do what we can.

As for the ripening of the fruit you mentioned, it's nothing, it's just that all the money in our family has been set aside. Just invite a few people from the village with neat hands and feet, plus our own people. This year, the family has been spending money until now, and they haven't made anything, have you seen it? ”

When Liu Wang heard this, he was a little discouraged. Doe just looked at him coldly and didn't say anything. The thoughts of a great man must not be on this, especially the person who helps her do things, these thoughts are definitely not his responsibility. Now his meaning is not obvious, does he want her to pay money to help everyone get through this difficulty?

All the fish in the field were sold, but they were sold for less than a hundred taels, which was much worse than the silver she had invested this year. She also earned her own money, not sitting there and waiting for others to help.

"Dad, those beans in the field should be ripe. In the past two days, you can take some time to talk to Brother Tiezhu and them, and take them all back. When Du Yi said this, he had already begun to ignore Liu Wang.

"Okay, let's go now!" Liu Dazhu was very happy when he heard that Du Yiken had asked him to go up the mountain. If a person who is used to doing farm work does not do anything, he will feel that something is wrong with his whole body, and he will be uncomfortable and panicked. Finally, he had this opportunity, how could he let it go.

"Mother, those in the orchard, we are also preparing for the next few days. In addition, it is now October, and it is almost November, and in a few days, it will be cold. After a few days, when you are not busy, you take a few of them, prepare two quilts for each of them, and let everyone have a good winter. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to buy these things." Liu knew that Du Yi was trying to break her up, so after saying this, the person also withdrew from the room.

Du Yi didn't plan to sell mangosteen this year, the factory had already been built, and she was going to test it herself, and if there was no problem, she could recruit workers. When the time comes, find some people to help, the premise is that the person is honest and reliable, and you must sign a confidentiality contract.

"Brother Liu Wang, tell me, what do you think in your heart? Say whatever you want, and don't hide it. ”

Only Du Yi was left alone, and Liu Wang felt under pressure. Hearing Du Yi's words, he subconsciously shook his head: "No, no!" ”

Du Yi looked at Liu Wang with deep eyes, and didn't say a word for a while. Liu Wang was watched, and cold sweat broke out on his back. If Doe doesn't want him because of this, or if he only lets him take care of the orchard in the future, how will he explain when he goes back?

"That, girl. In the future, I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I don't care about orchards and other things. Liu Wang wanted to keep this job, and after thinking about it, he fought for himself. But as soon as I said this, I felt that something was wrong.

"No, I'm not in the orchard. There is a steward in the orchard, I only need to know all the things of the industry, and some things, if the girl is not there, I can handle it, I will try to deal with it! ”

"You go down first!"

Liu Wang didn't know what Du Yi meant, and he was completely at a loss in his heart. Before leaving, I was very worried. Peach Blossom just walked in, and saw Du Yi say to her: "It seems that it will take a while for Liu Wang to be a cost-effective steward." If it doesn't work out, just change it! ”

Peach Blossom didn't understand what Du Yi meant, in her opinion, Liu Wang was very good. He is also warm-hearted, and he is the son of the village chief. But since Yiyi said that she was not qualified, she must have a reason. I hope Brother Liu Wang, don't disappoint.
