Chapter 62: Blessings and Blessings
Nancun has few people and no special products, and many generations are poor peasants, so suddenly there is a hope of making a fortune, everyone is the top priority, if anyone dares to block everyone's good life, it is simply tired and crooked.
Zhang Er and his wife were stared at by everyone, and they couldn't help but lean on one side, and said, "Don't be deceived by Pucao, she just wants to dominate the Zhang family's family business." These days, she has stubbornly provoked your brother to not be close to us, and today she wants to provoke everyone not to see our family, this is no way to say that she wants to teach everyone to grow vegetables! ”
"Yes, that's what I said. Pu Cao, the little girl, was the most stingy, and I only drank a sip of porridge that day, and she beat the two of us out of the door with a flat pole. Now that this kind of cooking can make so much money, it's strange that she is willing to teach it. ”
Everyone was also a little hesitant when they heard this, and when they remembered that Pucao had just promised to teach everyone to grow vegetables next autumn, they felt that the time was too long and there were many changes, who knows what will happen at that time? Could it really be that Pucao deliberately shirked it?
How could Chunni watch Pu Cao fall into the wind, snatch it out and stand behind Pu Cao and said loudly, "Second Aunt Zhang just can't take what she said seriously, if you hadn't poured porridge and burned Shanzi's arm last time, Pu Cao wouldn't have been angry." Besides, Pucao lives in this village, and since he said that he wants to teach everyone how to grow vegetables, he won't cheat. She's not like some people who are used to saying one thing and doing another. ”
"Who are you talking about, you're scolding me?" Aunt Zhang was choked with red eyes, and wanted to step forward again.
Li Zheng slapped the table and said angrily, "Shut up for me!" This is a major matter related to whether the whole village can live a good life, what are you women and people stirring up, standing on the side! ”
Second Aunt Zhang curled her steps, Chunni also blushed, and the eyes handed over by Pucao also retreated.
Li Zheng stroked a few beards on his jaws, and said after a moment of silence, "Let me be fair, this girl Pucao is a kind-hearted person, and everyone usually sees how she takes care of a few children." Since she returned to the Zhang family, she has done her best to do everything she can, and she has contributed to Zhang Luo's food or a piece of firewood in the Zhang family.
Now this kind of vegetable shed can make money, and she has worked hard to get it back. If she doesn't want to teach the villagers, no one can say anything. If she is willing to teach everyone and let everyone live a good life, then I will pat the words on the table with a few uncles today. In the future, if she has a little thing, no one in the whole village can stare at her, and it would be ungrateful not to protect her as her own daughter, and the whole village would spit and drown him! ”
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison. said a thousand ways and ten thousand, this way to make a fortune is the grass of others, she took it out is love, and it should not be taken out, if everyone gets benefits, they will naturally treat her as a great benefactor.
"Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, everyone is not that person without conscience."
"Yes, yes, Pucao girl is a good girl."
Pu Cao smiled and listened to everyone's words, then stepped forward and picked up the teapot to fill Li Zheng and several old men with tea, and then said, "Thank you Uncle Li Zheng and the villagers for their praise, everyone lives in one place, how can we only make a fortune in our family and let everyone live a hard life, it is the truth that there are blessings to enjoy together."
In fact, growing vegetables is not as easy as everyone thinks, don't look at my vegetable shed is just adobe bricks, in fact, the wooden windows on the slope, the wooden shelves, wooden boxes, iron tubes, green bricks and earthen stoves, etc., are added in one place and used ten taels of silver! ”
"So much!" Everyone was surprised and unfilial, and they really couldn't imagine that the inconspicuous little shed actually spent half a yard of silver.
Pu Cao nodded, "If you want to grow vegetables in the cold and freezing solar terms, it is against the sky, and these heating things must naturally be prepared." This is still thanks to the acquaintances in the city, and it only cost ten taels of silver, otherwise I am afraid it will be more.
This is also one of the reasons why I want to teach everyone to grow vegetables again next autumn, after all, these ten taels of silver are more than half of the family's wealth, and it is too risky to take them out to grow vegetables like this. And the method I pondered was also the first time I tried it, and many things need to be improved, so it's best to think about it for a while, at least after a winter. I don't want to watch the villagers invest money and end up putting their savings into it if something goes wrong. When the time comes, if the folks don't say my fault, I won't feel good. ”
Everyone nodded again and again when they heard this, it turned out that they only saw that the Zhang family had made money, but they didn't expect how much money they had invested and how much risk they had taken.
Pu Cao took everyone's looks in her eyes and continued, "Of course, I have other concerns. There are more than 40 families in our village, and it is inevitable that everyone has some relatives and friends who get along very well. If I tell the method early, the sisters-in-law are worried about their mother's family, and the aunts are worried about their aunt, even if one of them misses his mouth, I am afraid that at this time next year, there are dozens of villages around Cuiluan City, and every household has planted vegetables, then we Nangou Village..."
She took it in the middle of what she said, but the aftermath was understandable to everyone. The reason is very simple, that is, the radish is fast and does not wash the mud. If they are the only ones who grow vegetables in Nangou Village, they will definitely get a good price if they sell them in the city, but if all the villages are rushing up, won't the vegetables be as cheap as in summer?
Everyone thought about it for a moment, shook their heads in unison, and responded one after another, "Pucao, don't tell anyone." No one asks, you keep this method better than anything else. ”
Chen Lizheng and several old men looked at each other, and also felt that Pu Cao was very reasonable, so he asked everyone to cross this sentence in a few words, and scolded Zhang Er and his wife very harshly, "Are there any elders in the eyes of the two of you?" On that day, Pucao took Gui Ge'er and Peach Blossom to live a life, and the whole village listened to the elders to make Pucao the master of the house.
Although you are your brother's second uncle, but you live your own life, don't always go to make trouble with your brother. Also, your family is far away from the vegetable shed of Pucao, if you delay Pucao to think about planting vegetables, you can see how everyone will clean you up. When the time comes, don't blame me for not being merciful and driving you out of the village. ”
"Li Zheng is right, how many years have you been separated, and you are a distant cousin. Pucao and your brother know how to be polite and respect you as an elder, don't take yourself too seriously. ”
"That's it, you're a cousin, it's good to say hello when you meet."
Everyone talked so bluntly that Second Uncle Zhang's nostrils were on fire, he was a serious elder, how could he let them talk about it and become a passerby. But Nangou Village is the biggest, and he is really afraid of being kicked out of the village, provoking the family with nowhere to stay.
So I had to endure it, muttered a few words of complaint, and then pulled the resentful Aunt Zhang to turn around and leave.
Li Zheng scolded in a low voice, "Something that doesn't make a difference." ”
Kong Wuye stroked his beard and said, "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, I heard that his dog leftover is still gambling in Yangshu Village every three or five days, and that bastard boy will also be a headache in the future." ”
Pu Cao stood aside with a smile and didn't hear this, thinking in his heart that he had made his words clear today, so it would be better to take a few more people to the greenhouse and give them one more reassuring pill.
"If Uncle Lizheng and a few elders are not in a hurry to go back, why don't you go with me to the vegetable shed?"
Chen Lizheng had heard his daughter-in-law talk about how warm and magical the vegetable shed was, and he had long been curious to go and have wanted to take a look. Several old men also smiled, and praised Pucao in their hearts for having eyes and being a man.
They were so excited that they got up and were about to leave, but the old lady Liu on the side was in a hurry. She is a brainless person, where can she see the "direction of the wind", and she still hopes that Li Zheng will also be the master for her.
She seemed to be instantly healed from the wind and cold, and she didn't cough or sneeze anymore, and she rushed to Lizheng with an arrow step, and shouted with a crying voice, "Brother Lizheng, you have to be the master for me and your brother." This unfilial son of our family is really going to make me angry to death. ”
Chen Lizheng was originally smiling happily, but his face suddenly stiffened half of his face when he was frightened by her voice, and he felt even more headache when he heard her say these words.
If you say that the old and young in the village, the population is not less than 200, most of them are honest and responsible, only the old Liu family and the Zhang Er family are the outliers.
Both families are stingy, and a swallow flying on the roof has to pluck its roots to feel that it will not suffer. But the two families are a little different, Zhang Er's family is stingy, and their hands and feet are not clean, but they are not bad for their own children, even if Heiwa is a little silly, he has never been beaten and scolded, but there is a sense that the tiger is poisonous and does not eat children.
It's just that this Liu family can't help but shake their heads when they mention it, this old couple doesn't know if they didn't grow well in their mother's womb, or if they ate the wrong thing when they were young, and their whole hearts are very long.
As his name suggests, the boss is honest and responsible, and he is a rare and diligent offspring in the village, but in their eyes, he is an old scalper. The second aquatic is cunning and sweet-mouthed, but in their eyes, he is a first-class baby bump.
The old couple can't wait to drive the boss out to do work every day, and they don't feel distressed when they are tired, as long as he can take the money back and spend it on them and the second child. It has been like this for many years, so that everyone in the village looks at it and is unhappy for the boss.
Originally, some time ago, the boss split up and passed away, and everyone privately discussed that the boss finally had a good life. Why is this being deducted from the name of unfilial piety again and making trouble for him?
"Old sister-in-law, this child is good, honest and capable, no one in the whole village praises it. You may have made a mistake somewhere, right? ”
"Brother Lizheng, don't you know, the son was stabbed by his daughter-in-law and was separated from our family. He just said that he won't be in charge of the money he earns in the future, and his father will not be in charge, who do you say can't take care of his son's money? He's not filial..."
Mrs. Liu was chattering, eager to say that her son was a wicked person who deserved to die. Hearing this, Liu Housheng's face turned purple, and his eyes were full of despair when he looked at his mother...
