Chapter 132: Treacherous Heart

Chunhua asked what happened, and couldn't help but shake her head, "Lao Mei's family is becoming more and more unattractive now!" In the afternoon, I still listened to the second child of the Mei family and Sister Qiu fighting with her milk, and the quarrel was terrible, as if they were going to sell land or something. ”

"Selling land?" The Jia family was surprised, the Mei family has a total of ten acres of land, all of which are excellent ridges, but there are many Mei family members, and the ten acres of land are already considered to be less, barely enough to eat, why do you want to sell the land?

"I'm afraid it's for my uncle to study." Sister Qiu interjected on the side, she estimated that the Mao family really had no money in her hands, otherwise she would not have been in such a hurry to sell the land.

Jia shook his head, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, it was said that the Mei family had a lot of land in the old lady's generation, and later sold part of it for Mei Liang to study, and the remaining ten acres were enough for the family to eat, and now they are going to sell the land again. In the eyes of the villagers, the wild land is the foundation of the family, and the sale of land is a relatively loser's behavior.

"We can't take care of it." Jia preached, and she felt that Mao's ironclad could not sell the land, and a person like Mei Tang who was a bitter and domineering man, where could he allow Mao's to sell land, and he would not want Mao's to sell it.

Sister Qiu nodded, found the account book from the house, and collected the money to record today's account.

When she first came to this world, she was puzzled, there were a lot of ownerless idle land in Xiaohe Town alone, and if she reclaimed it, she would go to Lizheng to register it, even if it was her own wilderness land, but no one would reclaim it.

The reason is that she is also very quick to figure out that it takes a lot of manpower and animal power to reclaim the idle land, and the fertility of the cultivated idle land is very poor, even if the seeds are sprinkled in the first few years, it is difficult to have a harvest, and the seeds are wasted, and the cultivation of the idle land into a good field ridge requires a lot of fertilization and careful service.

In this era, there is no fertilizer that can be bought everywhere, if the fertilizer owner is manure, there is not much, the village is careful to calculate, there are manure tanks in the yard of every house, chicken manure, pig manure and even rotten vegetable leaves are all thrown into the fertilizer, the slightest reluctant consumption, Rao is so, fertilizer may not be enough for the existing field land application.

But where the family can get by, very few people go to the thankless reclaiming of idle land.

The Mao family asked for the good land in the sale, but the second family of the Mei family would not agree, so it was up to the Mao family to deal with it, but it was all none of their business.

When Lin Cheng was about to leave with Aunt Chunhua, Chunhua grabbed Sister Qiu and asked with a smile, "Did you see your eldest brother at noon today?" ”

"See." Sister Qiu smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I see that Brother Zhun is in good spirits, and he even ate two pancakes at lunch." ”

Aunt Chunhua nodded her head with peace of mind at this point, and there was a little reluctance and concern in her expression, but in the end, she smiled and said hello to Jia Shi and left.

The next day, when she met Anzi and Lord Yan who came to eat bean curd at the stall, Zhang Yuxiu blushed, why didn't she want to raise her eyes to look at Anzi, and Anzi was also a little embarrassed with all her palms and feet.

Jia Shi quipped: "Fortunately, we are not particular about the dealer's family, I heard that those who are very particular, the two of them can't meet after they are engaged!" ”

As soon as he said this, the faces of the two

It was even more red.

Sister Qiu had something important, so she pulled Anzi and bit her ear, asking Anzi to help see if there was anyone in the town who wanted to sell the shop, and the best one was the kind of house in front of the shop and the back yard.

"It's not hard to just buy a store." Anzi pondered for a while and said, "It's just that Sister Qiu, the kind of front shop and back house you talked about is not easy to find, we don't have a few such shops in Jiujiang, but there are that kind of front shops and three tiled houses in the back." ”

Sister Qiu was slightly disappointed, and then cheered up and said, "Then it's okay to have this, I don't know how much silver money?" I've saved a little bit with my mother, but I don't know if it's enough. ”

Anzi scratched his head and smiled, Jia's idea of this stall is good, it is selling bean curd, water tofu, soybean sprouts, fragrant rice dumplings, and selling water tofu vegetables and pancakes, but these Xu Xu don't seem to him to make a lot of money in a short time, they haven't been in the town for a long time, and the money to buy a shop is definitely not enough.

However, it was An Ziquan who was Sister Qiu's little Nizi who had no social experience, and had a whim, Sister Qiu, who didn't know, went to Huyang for 160 taels of silver, so she thought about helping them inquire, she was single, and she had saved a lot of money over the years, if the store was not expensive, he would buy it as a dowry, at least in the future, Jia Shi and Li Ailian came out to sell water tofu to have a shelter from the wind and rain, and the wind could not blow and the rain could not be wet.

"I'll help you inquire." Anzi smiled and said, "If there is a suitable one, I will take you to have a look." ”

Sister Qiu saw Anzi's promise, and couldn't help but feel like a flower, and immediately praised her very undisciplinedly: "Brother-in-law, you are so good!" ”

"That's it!" Anzi is more arrogant, and she is more happy to take advantage of it.

At noon, Sister Qiu's Lin Zhun and Zhang Ruoxu came over for a party, but they didn't expect them to come early, took the rice spoon in the hands of Sister Qiu and Zhang Yuxiu, and helped with the dishes, while Sister Qiu and Zhang Yuxiu only had to be responsible for collecting money.

"Eh, you don't have to ......" Zhang Yuxiu was a little surprised.

In fact, more or less, in this era, scholars despise small traders, like Meiqu, knowing that their nieces set up stalls next to the college to buy food, but they have never appeared, which is to lose his face.

Before Lin Zhun came, Zhang Ruoxu had not come out to help so early.

The two of them are doing a good job, and when they meet familiar students, they will greet each other calmly and enthusiastically.

Zhang Yuxiu glanced at Sister Qiu in a hurry, and couldn't help but smile and think, Lin Zhun is really a considerate and kind person, Sister Qiu will definitely have a very good life if she marries him.

When all the students finished buying the vegetables, Zhang Yuxiu took the spoon and gave Lin Zhun and Zhang Ruoxu a dish, Sister Qiu turned out a cage cloth from the bottom of the bamboo basket, took out four thick pancakes from the oily kang from the inside, and got Lin Zhun and Zhang Ruoxu, the two took the pancakes, and they took a bite and froze, and glanced at Sister Qiu and Zhang Yuxiu with some surprise.

Sister Qiu smiled and nodded, "Add red eggs to it, it's different from other pancakes, hurry up and eat it!" ”

Lin Zhun sat with Sister Qiu on one side with a bowl to eat, while Zhang Yuxiu and Zhang Ruoxu whispered about yesterday's Zhang Yu on the other side

Show the matter of getting engaged.

"Sister Yuxiu is engaged!" Sister Qiu smiled and said, "It's Brother An Zi, you've seen it." ”

Lin Zhun smiled and looked at Sister Qiu's white and red clean noodles, and said with a smile: "What, are you in a hurry?" ”

Sister Qiu glanced at him, Jue's face was all hot, and she said angrily: "Hurry up and eat your pancakes!" I spent a lot of time to get it out! ”

"Yes!" Lin Zhun said with a smile, and said, "Don't put red eggs in the back, your family's ...... Concubine Yi and Concubine De haven't started laying eggs yet, right? I also have to spend some money to buy red eggs. ”

Sister Qiu smiled happily and nodded one after another, "Yes, it's hot, and no eggs have been laid." "There is a rooster and seven old hens in the house, and they are fed delicious and delicious every day, and I don't know how much fatter they are than when they first came.

However, in Sister Qiu's view, this is really an out-and-out queen, palace, so the rooster named her "Master Kong", and the rest of the old hens are naturally Master Kong's concubines.

"Aunt Chunhua asked about you yesterday." Sister Qiu said, "I think my aunt misses you." Lin Zhun smiled, he also missed his family a lot, he was young and big, and he hadn't been separated from his family for such a long time.

Jia Shi saw that the soybean sprouts were selling well, and she was also happy in her heart, but for several days, all people came to inquire about how the soybean sprouts were made, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

"Soybean sprouts are easier to do than to make water tofu, there is no secret, sooner or later, people will find out." Jia sighed.

Sister Qiu smiled and persuaded her, "What are you afraid of, even if someone finds out, it is not as good as our family's idea." "Now this Qiuji water tofu has started a famous brand in Jiujiang and the surrounding areas, not only their stalls are inserted with Qiuji's signboard, Lin Cheng and others carry the water tofu out to sell, everyone has a small banner of Qiuji on their burden.

Sister Qiu was afraid that someone would pretend to be their water tofu like Er Niu, so she told Lin Qu and others that when she went out to sell water tofu in the streets and alleys to eat, she had to hang Qiu Ji water tofu on the side of her lips, and she also had to show people that if someone pretended to be their brand, there would be a reward for providing clues.

However, to this day, Sister Qiu has not heard of anyone pretending to be their water tofu, making water tofu is a hard work, and most of the people who can endure hard work are not treacherous.

"There are also a lot of people who ask us how to buy water tofu, and the day before yesterday, someone offered 100 taels, and I was vague." Li Ailian accosted.

Zhang Yuxiu immediately said: "This can't be sold, let's still point to this secret recipe to make money and live!" ”

followed Sister Qiu back to Huyang City and earned 160 taels of silver, Zhang Yuxiu's vision also became long-term, a dish can be sold for 160 taels of silver, not to mention the method of making water tofu? 100 taels want to buy, think beautiful!

Sister Qiu just smiled, in her opinion, in fact, this method can't be saved

For a long time, so not many people are interested in selling water tofu, just because in those who are really big dealers, selling water tofu is just a small fight, making a child's money, and it is troublesome and laborious, which is also the original intention of her positioning water tofu as a low-end commodity from the beginning.

If her family is rich and powerful, Sister Qiu also wants to set the price of water tofu high from the beginning, in the end, it is rare and expensive, even if it is sold less, it will earn more. But who wants her family to be in such a situation? You can only take the low-end route without eyesight.

Even if you want to sell water tofu prescriptions, you have to find the most appropriate way.

In ancient times, how many families were because there was a rare thing in the family that was favored by powerful people, and the family was ruined.
