Mrs. Li nodded again and again, "Don't worry about this, I'll clean it up for you at night!" "Big and small, as long as the girl says, she will definitely not hold back.

"I thought, this time to buy land, no matter what, it is a debt to the Wu family and the Zheng shopkeeper, if you only send this little thing, it will be too shabby! Valuable, our family can't take it out. Come to think of it, the wolf skin you fought last time should be good, give a wolf skin to one person, mother, what do you think? Mei Xiaotong was pondering this problem on the way, firstly, to thank the Wu family and the shopkeeper Zheng, and secondly, to have a good relationship with them.

The Mei family will do business or something in the future, and the network will still have to be good.

"Okay, you've seen a lot out there, you just have to make up your mind! At this time, we can't be stingy, my mother doesn't understand anything else, but my mother still knows the truth of these multiple friends and multiple roads. You are a girl's family, support this family, and deal with those men outside, how difficult it is! As long as I can help, I want my mother's meat to be cut to you! Don't worry, tomorrow morning, my mother will prepare it for you properly! ”

With Mrs. Li as a guarantee, Mei Xiaotong still has something to worry about.

He took out all the rest of the silver and reported it to Mrs. Li.

"Mother, it cost one hundred and twenty taels to redeem the original land, and there is a deed tax of five taels of silver, and my more than five acres of land cost fifty taels of silver, and I paid the deed tax of two taels of silver. In order to add the mother's name and that line of words, I gave the old man who handled the transfer almost three taels of silver, and then the restaurant invited guests, and the shopkeeper Zheng only accepted five taels of silver for a good table of noodles. ”

"Mother, you give me a silver ticket of one hundred and fifty taels in the morning, plus twenty taels of silver for wolf meat, and the remaining fifty taels of the thank you gift given by Boss Zhang last time, a total of two hundred and twenty taels, it cost one hundred and eighty-five taels, and the rest is here." As he spoke, he pushed the remaining few ingots of silver to Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li touched the silver, thought about it, left five taels of silver for Mei Xiaotong, put the rest away, and whispered, "You keep this silver, in case there is an urgent need or something." Don't put money into your home in the future, but now that the land has been redeemed and the crops in the field are harvested, your family will be rich. There is also the deposit given by the big boss, you must take it, even if the sky falls, your father is dead, and you can't move, you know? ”

Mei Xiaotong nodded, of course she knew, so she didn't give the 100 taels of deposit and silver tickets to Mrs. Li.

Now that the family has land, a business, and thirty taels of silver, if nothing else, it is also unique in Lingshan Village.

As soon as Mrs. Li and Mei Xiaotong came out, Wen pulled the child in the third room, and withdrew back and forth to the house with low eyebrows.

Mei Changgui was caught by Mei Zhongzhong again, and asked carefully about the details of the land redemption during the day, Mei Changgui was impatient after being asked two sentences, and pointed to Tianlong, "They also followed, just ask the two brothers!" Besides, little sister, you still don't worry, what is there to ask? ”

As he spoke, he went out too.

Tianlong stood awkwardly

Where, I don't know what to say, or Mei Xiaoque will help him out, "Dad, Tianlong, their children's family, they don't understand this, so let's go and see, what can I know?" What the fourth child said is that now there is a little sister at home, what are you worried about? ”

Mei Zhongzhong's eyes widened, "...... I'll just ask...... How much did it cost......"

Tianlong opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but was pulled by Tianhu, "Master, we don't understand, it should have cost a lot of silver anyway, just ask my aunt, this silver is all earned by my aunt, can she still buy a loss?" Lord, this is a big joy today, I have to ask my grandmother, what to eat today, celebrate! ”

As he spoke, he picked up the dragon and the leopard and walked outside.

When he went out, Tianlong asked in a low voice, "Why don't you let me tell my master, how much silver was spent?" ”

Tianhu glanced at him, "Do you know how much it spent?" When the old aunt and the uncle of the Wu family went in to transfer the house, we didn't go in. Besides, isn't the banquet money? We waited outside while I could

I inquired with others, this person who buys land and buys a house still has to pay taxes to the yamen, I heard that there are a lot, do you know how much you paid? You casually say that it doesn't matter, there will be expenses that we don't know about when the time comes, and it's not right, the master and the old aunt are angry, aren't we being wicked in the middle? ”

When Tianlong heard this, there were still so many doorways, and patted his chest, "It's good that you pulled me out!" ”

I don't know how long Mei Xiaoque persuaded Mei Xiaoque in the back room, and by the time he had dinner in the evening, Mei Zhongzhong's face looked much better.

Mrs. Li ate and ordered, "Xiaotong has discussed with me, this redemption is back, I owe the favor of the shopkeeper Zheng and the landlord of Wu, I will pack some things tonight, early tomorrow morning, you and Tianhu will send it over, which is also a little bit of our family's heart." ”

Mei Changgui agreed slightly, Tianhu didn't expect that he could go, so he paused for a moment, quickly got up and agreed, and couldn't help but show excitement in his eyes.

Mei Zhongzhong has always listened to Mrs. Li for these personal dealings, but when she saw that Mei Changgui and Tianhu had gone to the town, she thought about it and said to Tianlong, "Tianlong...... Tomorrow...... Come with me...... Take a look in the fields. ”

I can't wait to go out and preach it.

Mrs. Li didn't bother to care about him.

All night, everyone finally had a complete and solid night's sleep.

When she got up early in the morning, Mrs. Li sent Mei Changgui and Tianhu to the town, and the things were packed separately.

Mei Xiaotong also explained a few words, and the two set off happily.

Mei Zhongzhong ate breakfast, helped Tianlong, followed by Tianbao and Xiaojuan, and went out slowly.

While watching Wen's clean up the table, Mrs. Li muttered, "Yesterday the nose was not a nose, the eyes were not eyes, but today it is upside down, and even the words are not good, so I am going out to show off!" ”

Wen is a daughter-in-law, where do you dare to talk, she only pretends to be dead.

Mei Xiaotong prepared

The fuel needed to open a dyeing workshop has not yet begun, and the dyeing workshop has not yet started, so several dyes must be prepared first.

Mrs. Li is now Mei Xiaotong's assistant, and about dyes, in addition to Mrs. Li, Mei Xiaotong really doesn't worry about others.

Sure enough, within half a day, Mei Zhongzhong's family made a windfall, and the news that the fields sold by the second child of the Mei family were redeemed and bought back spread all over the village.

There was a mother-in-law who didn't believe it, and under the pretext of coming to the door, she ran to Mei's house to ask.

Mrs. Li is also angry, no matter what, the Mei family has always had a good family background in Lingshan Village, even if she was frustrated by her mother-in-law before, but outside, it is also confident.

A few days ago, because of Mei Changan's incident, there were many people pointing fingers behind him.

She has been bored at home and rarely goes out, why? It's just unconfident!

There is no land at home, no income, the man is sick again, the son is also useless, everything is not going well, there is no way, so he suppresses his temper.

didn't see Mei Xiaotong come back and say that she wanted to do a mountain goods business, so she couldn't help but show off in the village?

In this regard, she and Mei Zhongzhong are really a family.

At this moment, looking at the endless stream of people who came to their homes and inquired about gossip, Mrs. Li regained her previous feelings.

No matter what others say, she is old-fashioned, praising her daughter in different ways, while looking very modest, but actually boasting about herself.

For example, heck, no, no, where is it as powerful as you say, but it's just barely hungry, and the family can get by.

Or is it just a little money, no way, who made my daughter filial and sensible.

All kinds of fancy show-offs.

There are also scheming people, so I asked, what did the Mei family do, why did they suddenly make a windfall?

Mrs. Li lightly pulled away from the topic.

Others saw that their teeth were itching, but they had to be convinced, there was no way, who let no one in their own family have such a sensible, capable and filial daughter?

When the mind turns quickly, the mind moves.

Especially when I saw Mei Xiaotong coming out of the house, I hadn't seen her for a few months, and the girl of the Mei family was really like a different person.

The person has lost weight, and she is actually a beautiful girl, not much worse than Mei Changan, the second child of the Mei family.

At the beginning, everyone said that the best looking thing in the Mei family was the second child of the Mei family, and the beauty of the Mei family and the brain of the Mei family had grown to the second child alone.

Now it seems that the youngest daughter of the Mei family is also a little beauty!

The face is still a little chubby that has not subsided, it looks blessed and festive, although the skin is not so white and tender, but with a healthy pink color, it is even more liked by these women, a pair of eyes are round, watery, smiling, lips slightly curled, it is really a pleasing little girl.

Such a little girl, not to mention that she looks like people, the most important thing is that she can make money!

If you can marry home, won't you marry a golden rooster who can lay golden eggs?

Although a few days ago, the Mei family released a rumor that the daughter of the Mei family was going to recruit a son-in-law at home, but now that the Mei family is up, it must be okay to marry the daughter, right?

One by one, they changed the yin and yang weirdness just now, and they all sincerely praised Mrs. Li for her ability to train her daughter, and her daughter looks good and is satisfactory, oops, what a blessing......

Mrs. Li was so praised that she almost floated, but when she heard that someone was going to match her daughter, she immediately sobered up.

"My daughter is recruiting a son-in-law at home, if any of you have a suitable offspring, you can introduce it. Because it's not my wife who boasts, now the conditions of our family, my daughter's talent, this appearance, and this ability are to recruit sons-in-law, and it's not just a cat or a dog. “

"Don't say anything else, at least the next generation looks upright, and besides, the future family can't have too heavy a burden, and after you can't come to our house, you have to raise a bunch of parents, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephews and nieces or something, our family's money doesn't support outsiders! Also, you have to be obedient in this life, and you have to listen to my daughter for everything! If there is such a suitable one, tell me, I'll take a look, and if it can be done, I will wrap you with a big red envelope of thanks! ”

Mrs. Li used to think that her daughter was worthy of the emperor, but now in this state, she is almost inflated, and she feels that her daughter has recruited a fairy.

As soon as this condition came out, the mothers-in-law smacked their tongues one after another.

Is this a son-in-law? Is it rare to marry a girl and find such a son-in-law? If there is really such a posterity, it would have been left to his daughter, and he could still keep it for your family?

Dream about it!

There was a feeling that Mrs. Li was fooling people at all, so she held her breath and said goodbye, went out of the courtyard door, and scolded in a low voice, and it was rampant like this after only a few days of development.

There are also those who want to earn a thank you matchmaker's big red envelope, and they are really looking for such a master in their minds.

Instead, they took their leave.

The Mei family quieted down.

Mei Zhongzhong went out for a walk, and got the envy of many old guys, and he was in a good mood, and he walked and walked neatly, even talking

Fluent.

I can't leave the field all my life, and now I can't wait to soak in the field every day, if it weren't for Tianlong or Tianhu or Mei Changgui to follow him every day and drag him back, I'm afraid that I would have to sleep with the field every night.

The story of the Mei family's miraculous fall and miraculous turnaround spread all over the country for a while.

Especially Mrs. Li's frighteningly high conditions for recruiting sons-in-law are even more sensational.

As for what outsiders say, Mei Xiaotong at least doesn't care.

※※※

In the town, Wu Zhongbao looked at the back basket sent by the shopkeeper Zheng.

A pack of clean wolf jerky, two small crockpots, opened, a puff of meat sauce

The smell comes to the face, and people can't help but salivate.

At the bottom, what is it?

Wu Zhongbao took a breath, pulled out the bottom two folded skins, and touched them carefully.

The fur is hard, the middle is blue-gray, and the sides are gradually darkened, this is wolf skin?

Although he relied on the Great Black Mountain, he also knew that there were wolves in the Great Black Mountain, but who would dare to fight wolves if ordinary hunters had nothing to do? Aren't you afraid of retaliation?

Even if there was an occasional wolf skin, it was taken away at a high price.

For Wu Zhongbao, in this life, being able to fight a wolf once and peel a wolf skin with his own hands is his only wish to secretly practice martial arts behind his father's back for many years.

This, although the wolf didn't hit it, but touching the wolf's skin first, it can be regarded as a little satisfaction, right?

Wu Zhongbao was intoxicated by the feel of wolf skin and couldn't extricate himself.

It took a long time to say to the man who had been drinking tea beside him, "I have done everything you want me to do, I can tell you, you can't take back this Mei family's thank you gift!" ”

Especially vigilantly holding the two wolf skins in his arms.

The man who was drinking tea with his back to him snorted coldly, got up, passed by the back basket, paused, stretched out his bony hand, and gently picked up the two small crockpots in his hand, "I only need this, you can keep the rest!" ”

After saying that, he went straight out.

Wu Zhongbao can keep the wolf skin as long as he can keep it, what wolf jerky and what meat sauce are floating clouds.

So I didn't even think about blocking it.

After a while, Wu Laoqi, who got the news, hurried over.

I saw my son holding two wolf skins, smiling like a fool.

Looking at the back basket on the table, the bag of wolf jerky in it was quietly placed, and he took it out and checked it with his hand, showing a satisfied expression.

"Didn't the little girl of the Mei family say that there is still meat sauce? I tasted it in Lao Wu, it tastes really good, I heard that I also sent two cans to our family, what about the meat sauce? "Wu Laoqi is not interested in wolf skins or anything, although he knows that these two wolf skins are not cheap, this is probably the best thing that the Mei family can come up with.

But he still misses the meat sauce, Lao Wu is stingy, and he only tastes two bites, which makes him miss it now.

Wu Zhongbao showed a look of emptiness, "That, uh, I gave it away!" ”

"Lao Tzu beat you to death, a loser! What people give you Lao Tzu, you dare to give it away? Why don't you give away two wolf skins? ”

As soon as Wu Laoqi heard this, he began to jump to his feet.

"Well, wolfskin, I like—"

"A rabbit cub, keep what you like, and give away what your father likes, right? Evil obstacles, take the family law—"

Shopkeeper Zheng didn't know that he just deliberately promoted Mei Xiaotong's meat sauce after seeing Wu Laoqi, so he asked Wu Laoqi to go home and beat up the only child he held in his hands on weekdays.

He was drinking a little wine with jerky and peanuts

Mi, there is a pair of people talking to the little third son, "Little third son, did you say that the dyed valerian is now in the hands of the head of the family?" ”

The little third son accompanied the smiling face, "According to the distance, it should have arrived!" I just don't know about this thing, can the head of the family look at it? Uncle, you said this thing is really good, don't you lose money then? ”

"Snort-" Shopkeeper Zheng smiled, threw a peanut and smashed it on the head of the little third son, "What do you kid know?" Let me tell you, in the future, I'm afraid that your uncle will rely on this to turn over! ”

Talking, humming a little song, he slowly drank a little wine again, but in his eyes, the eager eyes did not show such calmness.

※※※

Mei Xiaotong didn't know everything that was happening in the town.

Just taking advantage of the good weather, since the beginning of summer, the weather has become hotter and hotter, and it has been more than a month, and not a drop of rain has fallen.

Lingshan Village is close to Daheisheng, and there is a river next to the village, which flows down from the upper reaches, although the water level has dropped a little, but it does not have much impact on the village at present.

Mei Xiaotong also happened to take advantage of this weather to mix new dyes.

Since the last time Mrs. Li said the conditions for the Mei family to recruit a son-in-law, the door of the Mei family has been very clean for a few days.

Mei Zhongzhong also recovered faster because he went to the ground every day, but now if he doesn't look carefully, he can't see that he is a little inflexible when he walks, and as long as he speaks a little slower, it is no different from usual.

Because of the hot weather, Mei Zhongzhong was worried about the crops in the field, and every morning after breakfast, he had to go to the field to see before returning.

As a result, in the morning, after breakfast, everyone was still in the yard, when they heard the door being smashed.

There was also a voice coming in, "Dad, open the door, I'm Dani, I'm back!" ”

Dani? Who is it? Mei Xiaotong was stunned and went to see Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li's face sank, and her mouth pouted, "Boss, your good girl has returned to her parents' house!" ”

Mei Zhongzhong heard the voice outside the door, his face was also a little unsightly, he still remembered that he was very injured, when he was lying with his eldest son in the hospital, as soon as the eldest girl arrived, he didn't ask about his father's physical condition, and second, he didn't ask how his boss's body was.

The implication of the words is that he connived at his sons to lose all the Mei family's family business.
