183 See clearly, think clearly
Old man Ning drank half a bowl of egg soup, which was the most unpalatable egg soup he had ever drunk, and he couldn't taste the salt in the soup. Old man Ning put down the bowl heavily, and Miao Lizheng also knew the situation in his village, "What's that, isn't it delicious?" β
Old man Ning took a deep breath and scolded Ning Nanxing and Shen Changzhi: "You guys have been talking about it for a long time, is it possible that you haven't discussed it yet?" Mother-in-law mother-in-law is not a man! β
Ning Nanxing bought the land, so naturally he didn't hide it from Old Man Ning. So before entering Miaojiazhai, Old Man Ning had already asked Ning Nanxing softly if it was this one. Seeing Ning Nanxing and Shen Changzhi muttering in the corner of the courtyard, Old Man Ning also followed over and listened to it, and when he heard the two of them talk about the property, Old Man Ning retreated.
Ning Nanxing was drinking egg soup and was suddenly scolded.
Miao Lizheng thought that Old Man Ning was angry because he thought that their village was not good, so he got angry by scolding his grandson. Frightened, he quickly stood up from the bench, "Big brother, if you are not satisfied with this, you tell me, I will beckon someone to get another one." What do you do to scold a child, a child is not innocent. β
Old man Ning pulled Miao Lizheng to sit down again, looking at Miao Lizheng's cautious appearance, his heart was sour. This is all a village's integrity, and he is so cautious, for fear of offending a person from another village. Alas, they are all poor and have no confidence!
Old man Ning opened his mouth and explained, "You don't know, I don't have anything to dissatisfaction with, I originally wanted to come and thank you, but I didn't think about it, but I was tired of so many of you being busy, and I really didn't want to go." β
Miao Li Zheng saw that he didn't blame his own village, and he was also relieved. "Hey, this has received so many things from you, and we don't want to go in our hearts. It's just a few eggs. β
Old man Ning glared at Ning Nanxing and Shen Changzhi, "Have you discussed the result?" If there is a result, hurry up and tell people about it, so as to reassure people's hearts. β
Ning Nanxing kicked Shen Changzhi and motioned for Shen Changzhi to speak.
Shen Changzhi glared at Ning Nanxing, and finally stood up. He bowed to Miao Lizheng, but he didn't. "The kid can't compensate you, I'm tired of you running so many times."
Miao Li was in a fog, and hurriedly helped the person up, "Where is this, I just sent your brothers and sisters back, and when I came back, it was your carriage that sent me back, how can I think I ran so many times." Nonsense, nonsense! β
Shen Changzhi helped Miao Lizheng to sit down again, "Don't hide it, Miao Lizheng, the person you may go to the yamen to find is us." β
"You guys? What am I going to do with you in the Yamen? Miao Lizheng was still in the circle, and as soon as he sat down, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "You-you mean, the land around here belongs to your family?" β
Miao Li was excitedly grabbing Shen Changzhi's arm, and only after seeing Shen Changzhi nodding did he laugh out loud! "Haha, good, good, there is no endless road!"
Shen Changzhi was afraid that if people were excited, he would be too guilty. "If we are free, we can discuss the matter of leasing the land."
"I'm free now, I'm free now!" As soon as Miao Li finished speaking, he smiled embarrassedly, "Look at me, this is excited and confused, you guys are here to visit the door, how can you talk about these things." β
Miao Lizheng's son was also very excited when he heard the news at first glance, and it didn't take long for it to spread throughout the village. The old and young people in the village gathered outside the courtyard, looking at Miao Lizheng with blazing eyes.
Miao Lizheng scolded, "There are no rules, why don't you go back to your own house quickly, I see that you are all idle!" β
It's just that after scolding, Miao Lizheng himself laughed, "What's that, I'm quite free at this time, otherwise, let's talk about it first?" I haven't decided on this day, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat well and sleep well. Miao Li was rubbing his hands crampedly, for fear that the Shen family would see outside.
The villagers on the periphery of the courtyard laughed, one by one, old and young, all laughing at the unreserved and unruly people in the main seedlings, and some shouted, "Big brother, uncle, grandfather." "It's a lot of harmony.
Shen Changzhi didn't have any opinions, "Don't hide it from Miao Lizheng, we have just taken over the field here, and as for this lease, we don't have a charter in our hearts." β
Miao Li was patting his chest, "With me, I know what is going on here." Together, the land we rented was paid fifty percent of the rent, and the north of Jiangxia City was like this. β
Shen Changzhi nodded, "When Miaoli is free tomorrow, come to the village, and let's discuss the matter of renting." We let people do it all. β
Miao Li responded, and knew that this matter was not a trivial matter, the Shen family wanted to inquire, and they wanted it after all, and they could still afford to wait for the next day or two. "Otherwise, I will come to Peach Blossom Village again the day after tomorrow, and you can prepare tomorrow."
"Done!" Shen Changzhi responded generously. "I may not be able to guarantee it on the side, but for the sake of Li Zheng helping our family, this field will naturally be picked by Li Zheng first."
After getting these words, Miao Li was overjoyed. You must know that the annual output of these high-grade paddy fields and low-grade paddy fields is much worse.
The Shen family talked in Miaojiazhai for an afternoon, and Miao Li was accompanying the old man Ning and a few people to the field, talking about farm work, seeing that the sun was gradually setting in the west, this time the two families insisted on going back. This time, it was Old Man Ning who insisted on going back. He didn't want a dinner for the two of them, and he had to pour out the whole clan to make a good meal.
As soon as the Shen family left, Li Zheng sent the meat to each family. Even the eldest mother is not ambiguous, only one pound is left for her grandson to relieve his hunger, and the rest is also divided. Over the years, if it weren't for the help of the village, there would have been some of them old and some young, and they might not have survived until now.
Ning Nanxing learned about it by accident, and he glanced at the people of Miaojiazhai again.
After Shen Changzhi returned to the village, he saw that Shen Zhong had already boiled a pot of rice.
Shen Changzhi found an excuse to call Shen Zhong to his house and took out the title deed. Pushed in front of Shen Zhong. "Dad, this is our family's land deed, a few days earlier, when the land price was cheap, I secretly bought the seventy-two acres of land with Nanxing."
Shen Zhong had already heard Shen Chunyun mention it, but he was upset, he saw the real title deed at this time, although he didn't know the words, but there was nothing wrong with the title deed looking like this. "Is this really ours? So much land! β
Shen Changzhi responded with a smile, "Well, it's all our family." Originally, our family didn't have so much silver, but we also collected the rent of this year's shop, even the account of dried tofu was also collected, and it is estimated that we will not have any income this year. β
As soon as Shen Zhong heard that several of his own inputs had been collected, his heart also tightened, "What should I do?" Do we still have any silver? β
Shen Changzhi lowered his head and sneered, and he didn't mind letting Shen Zhong see that he was such a person. "Our family still owes the Ning family a hundred taels of silver, in order to get the second uncle out of prison. Our family, it is estimated that in the next two or three years, it will not be able to slow down. β
Shen Zhong was so troubled by Shen Chunyun and Shen Wan before, and he also understood a little in his heart. "From now on, our family will live behind closed doors. It's not because of my brother that I can't even live your little days. Originally, I planned to find a matchmaker to marry you this year, but now I look at it, in addition to this empty land deed, our family owes a lot of debt. can't let the daughters of the family marry into our family and suffer hardship. Heyβ"
Shen Zhong sighed, "You go to the city another day and ask Shopkeeper Qin when we can continue to make our tofu." This year, I have to pay off the debt, and strive to pay off this debt as soon as possible, so that I can marry you a daughter-in-law. β
I didn't expect that Shen Zhong could carry it so clearly. "Did my aunt come today?"
Speaking of Shen Chunyun, Shen Zhong's face was also a little awkward, but he was not a person who could lie in the end, so he nodded with a wooden face, "Hmm." β
Shen Changzhi is strange, his father Shen Zhong has always been responsive to his younger siblings, and now this good old man is a little annoyed, it seems that Shen Chunyun said something that should not be said. "Daddy angry? If Dad doesn't dislike it, he can tell his son, after all, we are father and son. β
Usually Shen Changzhi is as cold as he is to Shen Zhong, but when he talks about it, Shen Changzhi opens his mouth to kiss his father and son, and closes his mouth to be a father. He also personally poured a cup of tea for Shen Zhong.
Shen Zhong looked at his son's thoughtfulness, and felt more and more that he couldn't go. "It's not a big deal, I just think your aunt doesn't like it very much."
This is even more serious.
Shen Changzhi became more and more curious, "Dad said before that he would marry Tuan Tuan to his aunt's family, if my aunt behaves so that Dad, a good person, doesn't like it, then should we slow down?" β
On one side is his own sister-in-law.,On the other side is his daughter.γ Shen Zhong doesn't have to think about it, of course his daughter is more important. But when he thought that his sister-in-law had agreed to Tuan Tuan's matter, and he could say it and provoke it when he turned around, Shen Zhong didn't like it very much. That's why I don't like it.
"Dad can't say it's very good, Dad is stupid and can't speak, so I can't say what the hell is going on. Tuan Tuan is still small, so it doesn't hurt to wait a few years to see again. Kangzi is a good person, but the big families in the city have asked about Kangzi a lot. In the final analysis, Shen Zhong is very satisfied with Yang Ankang. After all, someone who can read is really hard to find.
"Since Dad can't say it, let's say it and let my son give you a staff officer. After all, it's not a trivial matter. I've heard that those scholars, when they became famous, carried them into the house one by one, saying that it was the elegance of scholars. Our family's Tuan Tuan is not a person who loves to study. β
After Shen Zhong mentioned this, he also remembered what was said in the play.
I lost my mind even more.
But thinking that Shen Chunyun is Tuan Tuan's aunt in the end, and she still loves Shen Tuantuan, it shouldn't be like this, right? If it had been left behind, Shen Zhong would definitely believe Shen Chunyun. But after today, Shen Zhong is a little uncertain.
Therefore, Shen Zhong took away what Shen Chunyun said and did today, including the dowry that was originally saved for Shen Tuantuan.
