After the autumn harvest, the displaced people in Shuize Township are full of enthusiasm, and more and more barren fields have been reclaimed.

At the same time, a group of matchmakers appeared among the homeless.

They walk in the fields every day and actively protect the media and pull fibers.

Bachelors, big girls are busy clearing the wasteland, it's okay, you do yours, I say mine.

squatted on the ridge and introduced it with his throat.

Tell you, the man (girl) who lives in the first row of thatched houses is good!

The body is good, the work is quick, and it is a good hand......

The matchmakers took the trouble to find a suitable daughter-in-law (man) for each bachelor (girl).

The bachelors were excited, and asked the matchmaker to help them say that they were the daughters of a certain family.

So, every evening after work, it is the blind date time for single men and women.

If there is a match, the flat dam in front of the canteen has become a place for everyone to date.

The men and women of the peasant family are all homeless, and they are not so particular.

It is better to meet in Pingba than to hide in the woods, and no one will gossip or mutter.

The matchmakers are powerful, and the results are gratifying.

In just one month, they were stunned to match hundreds of single men and women.

Yan Yunge heard that there were hundreds of couples of men and women who were ready to get married, so she waved her hand and took care of this matter with a big hand. is preparing to hold a group wedding, and the cost of the wedding banquet is covered by her.

This news, through the mouth of the matchmaker, quickly spread to every household.

"What is a group wedding?"

"It means that all the newlyweds get married together, and everyone eats the wedding banquet together. The money for the wedding banquet was paid by the owner. ”

"Really?"

"This kind of thing can still fool you. The wedding banquet is scheduled for the fifteenth of next month, and the newlyweds who want to participate in the group wedding should hurry to the public house to register. I'll tell you, I missed this village, but I didn't have that store. ”

"I don't want you to spend a penny, just give you a beautiful wedding, everyone has food and drink, this kind of good thing, my wife and I have lived for decades, anyway, I haven't encountered it before."

"You can get married as long as you sign up?"

"The premise is that you have to have a daughter-in-law, or a man."

"Hahaha......"

"No matter what your status, as long as you have a marriage partner, you can participate in a group wedding, are you sure?"

"Why do you have so many hearts. Can this kind of thing be faked? What good can I do if I trick you into getting married? One or two, unthankful, doubting this and that all day long, could it be that you have committed crimes before and have been registered in the government? ”

The man who asked smiled and said, "I don't even know which direction the yamen is opening, how can I make a mistake." ”

Bah!

The matchmaker complained in private.

The matchmaker has a powerful mouth and powerful eyes.

Some people, at a glance, know that they didn't do serious things before.

Why did they become homeless, no one cares.

As long as you don't commit a crime in Nirvana Villa, it's done.

……

As soon as the news of the group wedding came out, nearly 100 couples signed up on the same day.

Those bachelors or big girls who were not in a hurry to get married suddenly became anxious.

Group weddings, free wedding banquets, you can't find them.

It is going through the days, and if you can save it, you will save it.

If you can save a sum of money for marriage, you can buy one or two new clothes.

Do you want to find a girl (man) to marry now and catch up with this wave of benefits?

The benefits given by the owner are not available at all times.

It's all a matter of luck.

The single men and women hesitated, and the matchmaker fanned the flames on the side, and finally moved the people.

Find someone to marry!

I can't go back to my hometown, and it is very likely that I will settle down in Shuize Township in the future.

It is unrealistic to expect to climb high branches.

It's better to be down-to-earth, find a capable person, and form a family.

As long as you are down-to-earth and willing to work, the owner is kind, and life will definitely get better.

So, on the 15th day, there were more than 300 pairs of men and women participating in the group wedding.

Yan Yunge was taken aback.

She asked Bei, "Are there so many unmarried men and women?" ”

"Yes, just more, no less. The girl may not know that the homeless people fled the famine, there was no food or drink on the road, the wind and the sun were exposed, and the first to fall were the elderly and children. Most of the displaced people who have survived to the present day are young adults. Some of them died men, and some of them died. In this group wedding, many of them are second marriages, and even third marriages. ”

I see!

No matter how many people get married, anyway, the cost of the wedding banquet, Yan Yunge is covered.

It's not that she is wealthy, but that Shuize Township and Fugui Villa need a spirit.

She is not an official government, and the displaced people have opened up wasteland for her, and she will not be able to get her own land like the government.

In the past, for the government to open up wasteland, for example, 50 acres of wasteland can be obtained for 5 acres of self-reserved land, and taxes are exempted for three years.

Three years later, five acres of land belonged to the pioneers.

The government can operate like this, but Yan Yunge can't operate like this.

All the wasteland was bought by her on credit from Shaofu.

The property rights belong to her.

She gave money and grain, seeds, farm tools, ploughed cattle, food and shelter, invited displaced people to open up wasteland, and wanted her land, which was absolutely impossible.

Open up the wasteland for the government, and the government will not provide food and shelter.

The homeless people opened up the land for her, and she took all the expenses, including all the risks, except for the labor.

Being able to give the displaced people a part of the low-rent land is already her biggest concession.

However, the concept that is deeply cultivated in the minds of every homeless person has no land of its own, like duckweed, without support.

At any time, a big wave hits, and there is a possibility that the family will be ruined.

In the final analysis, the displaced people have no sense of belonging to Shuize Township and Fugui Villa.

They are now for food and can stay.

He can also leave this place for food.

With so much land, Yan Yunge needs a large number of people to open up wasteland and farm land.

Shuize Township is dilapidated, the aborigines are dead, and it is difficult to find a thousand adults who can escape.

It is difficult for villagers to leave their homeland, and it is not easy for Yan Yunge to recruit tenant farmers from other towns and county governments.

Displaced people have become the main labor force.

In order to let the displaced people open up the wasteland with peace of mind, live in a down-to-earth manner, and take root here, she needs to show an attitude.

Let the displaced people feel the grace and feel the tangible benefits.

For a group wedding, she bears the cost of the wedding banquet, which is a tangible benefit.

More than 300 couples have married, which is the identification of Shuize Township and Fugui Villa.

With a sense of belonging, you will be willing to start a family and live a down-to-earth life.

The wedding banquet of 300 couples was very large.

A couple, along with their parents, took the stage in turn to complete the ceremony.

Newcomers who have no relatives worship heaven and earth, and worship in the direction of their hometown.

The wedding banquet is very simple, it is a familiar big pot of rice, with an extra meat dish and a big bowl of bone broth.

Not abundant, but full.

Moreover, Yan Yunge also gave each newlywed couple a piece of cotton cloth as a wedding gift.

"The proprietor is benevolent! The wedding banquet was packaged, and cloth was even sent. ”

"This is muslin?"

"It's a little thicker than muslin, but it's about the same on the body. I heard that it is produced in the west, not from Jiangnan. ”

"Whether it is in the west or in the south of the Yangtze River, the owner sends a cotton cloth, which is full of heart. It solves a lot of problems. ”

There is a point in that.

Every homeless household lacks fabrics, and they have to do needlework on weekdays, but they suffer from the lack of cloth for needlework.

The clothes are worn out, and if you want a patch on the left and a patch on the right, you have to have a fabric to patch it.

Without fabric, you can only let the clothes rot.

It's not a matter of showing your cheeks, and it's not possible to tell people to see jokes.

I haven't worn new clothes for many years, but now I have a cotton cloth, which can be used sparingly, and maybe I can make two.

With a change of new clothes, the old clothes that are worn out can be eliminated, beaten, and used for shoe soles.

The shoes were too rotten to wear.

It doesn't matter in spring and summer, you can go barefoot wherever you go.

You still have to have a decent pair of shoes in winter.

The upper is simple and the sole is troublesome.

You have to use rags and rotten clothes to pulp, stack them layer by layer, and beat them into soles.

With the fabric to make new clothes, I am willing to use the rotten clothes to beat the soles of my shoes.

Daily life is inseparable from oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and it is also inseparable from needlework and fabric.

Every day after work, when passing through the Four Seasons Cloth Village, the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law all stretched their necks to look inside, and their eyes were full of stars.

There was that bold girl, who walked into the store and saw the well-made ready-to-wear, and her heart was overjoyed.

But he didn't dare to touch it.

Hands that have been doing farm work all year round, and rough fingers.

Ready-to-wear clothes are so precious, what if you touch them and scrape the new clothes and get damaged?

More than 300 couples got a gift from the owner, a cotton cloth, which made many big girls and little daughters-in-law envious.

The woman teased herself, "Look at your free wedding banquet and cotton again, it makes me want to marry again." ”

"Even if you marry again, there will be no mass wedding, and there will be no cotton."

"That's why I envy you, it's really lucky, I caught up with a good opportunity. It's a pity that the dead girl in my family doesn't want to get married, so she always says to wait for another two years. Look, what a great opportunity you missed. ”

The woman was annoyed, annoyed that her daughter was so brainless, and she missed such a big bargain.

……

Four Seasons Cloth Village ushered in a wave of business.

I put a needle and thread brain that I hadn't touched for a long time, and finally someone bought it.

Taking advantage of the fact that a guest came to the door, the guy Xiaosi took the opportunity to sell, "We have a tailor who can help cut the clothes to ensure that the clothes are close to the body, no waste of fabric, and only a small fee." In addition, we also have embroidery girls who can help sew clothes, and the cost is easy to say. ”

"Can you really help with the cropping?"

"Of course!"

"How much?"

"Your fabric is a northwest gift from the owner, right? Although the northwest goods are not as good as the Jiangnan goods, they are better than the convenient cutting, and the cutting fee is not expensive, only fifteen yuan. ”

"Fifteen pennies isn't expensive?" The bride's eyebrows furrowed, and she was very disgusted.

On weekdays, a penny has to be spent as two pennies, and fifteen pennies are hired by a tailor.

Ji Xiaosi was not in a hurry, "A set of clothes, the fifteen wen cutting fee is indeed more expensive." However, if you cut two sets of clothes at once, it will only cost twenty cents. If you cut three sets of clothes at a time, it only costs 25 yuan. The more clothes you have, the lower the cost. If you want to save money, you can buy a little more fabric and make two sets of clothes at a time, one for each person. You can also partner with others, and several families can get together ten sets of twenty sets of clothes, and the cost will be shared equally among you. ”

It's a good idea to partner up and share the cost of making clothes.

When Ji Xiaosi told the bride that their tailor was a master master in the capital, she was immediately moved.
