Chapter 224 Brother surnamed Wen
Shen Zhong sat at home and sighed for several days, and it was so ugly outside, he felt that he had no face to see people.
"Dad, seeing that it's mid-April, it's time for spring planting, and it's not raining yet. You should go to Pingtou Village to see the land, and hurry up and dig two more deep wells! ”
Shen Zhong stood up excitedly, pacing around the room, and Xiao Xia felt dizzy.
"Dad, don't think about it, the most important thing now is to plant the land."
"You're right, I'll go tomorrow."
Shen Zhong is a person who does what he says, he took Uncle Qing out early the next day, and it will take half a day to drive the ox cart back and forth in Pingtou Village, Xiao Xia feels that she should find a reliable person to stay there this year, and now there are more and more chaotic people, otherwise she is really not at ease.
If you want to talk about reliable people, just auspicious two people, and it's time to buy someone in the house.
Xiao Xia called the two of them into the main hall, and the two were still a little nervous, they knew that it was often this lame second girl who was in charge of the master's family, and the second girl was also capable. Thinking of today's years, do you want to sell your two children?
When the two of them thought of this, their hearts suddenly panicked, they didn't want to live a life of exile anymore.
"I came to you because I have something for you to do, I don't know if you are willing or not."
The two of them glanced at each other, not understanding what the second girl meant, didn't they drive them away?
"You also know that my family has 50 acres of paddy fields in Pingtou Village, and my father can't watch it all the time, I want to arrange you to be a steward there, so you don't have to do the work of subordinates in the future. I will arrange a yard for you over there, so that you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and if you do well this year, I will give you silver as wages at the end of the year. The amount of money depends on how much of your heart is used to do things. ”
When the two of them heard this, they immediately knelt down, and they didn't know what to say when they were excited, only that tears flowed out.
"Would you like to?" Xiao Xia asked again, although it is a good thing, but they have to be willing to do it, otherwise there will always be trouble.
"We are willing, willing, thank you for the cultivation of the second girl, thank you for the trust of the second girl Xiaoxia." The two kowtowed, and the gratitude in their hearts was not fake. Even if you are comfortable in the master's house, it is not as comfortable as being the master of your own house and being a little housekeeper.
"Okay, wait for tomorrow, auspicious, you will follow my father and Uncle Qing over there to familiarize yourself with the environment and work, and when spring planting begins, you will go there to live."
"What about the kitchen? I don't have much to do, so I'd better stay in the kitchen and cook for my wife! "Aunt Jixiang is also a loyal, what is the use of her going to Pingtou Village, the second girl is good to us, and we can't know if it's good or not.
Xiao Xia smiled faintly.
"Of course, you went to take care of Jixiang, and also to help take care of the paddy fields, but you don't have to do the work in the fields. I don't want to break up your husband and wife, even if you don't blame me, since you call me a second girl, I have to think about it. ”
Aunt Jixiang was moved to cry, when she met such a master, it was worth it to be a cow and a horse for a lifetime.
"And the kitchen?"
Don't worry, I'll buy someone back as soon as possible.
As soon as the auspicious things were arranged here, someone came to the door, Xiao Xia sat in the main hall and did not move, and after a while, auspicious walked in with a man.
Xiao Xia put down the tea bowl and saw the man, not surprised at all.
"Sit."
The man was a little uneasy, standing in the middle of the ground, not moving.
Xiao Xia is not in a hurry, just waiting for him to speak, some things are not forced, let him take the initiative to face the reality, just do it.
Xiao Xia drank another bowl of tea, but the man still didn't look up or move.
At this time, the curtain of the main hall was lifted again, and Jixiang walked in again, with a man who was not very old, looked a little obscene, and shrunk his head.
"Second girl, this is Wen Jiu from the next village, who is here to sell land."
The man who had been keeping his head down quickly raised his head when he heard this, and when he saw it, his angry eyes were red.
"Lao Jiu, what are you doing here?"
Wen Jiu heard a familiar voice, looked up, and sighed.
"Fourth brother? You're here to sell land too? ”
Xiao Xia sat on the top seat, but he didn't expect a pair of brothers to come today, leaning back on the chair, and it looked lively.
Wen Siyi grabbed Wen Jiu's neck and roared angrily. "Go back, there is only that bit of land left at home, what will you eat after you sell it? What will you do with your father? ”
Wen Jiuyi shook off Wen Si's hand, and as if he didn't care, he smiled and said, "You take care of me, you have been separated, and you don't care about the affairs of the family." ”
"I don't care, you're going to have to sell all the land at home."
"Aren't you also here to sell land, so who are you qualified to say that it's good to feed a group of babies in your family. I don't sell land, what do I eat? What does Daddy eat? Dad hasn't eaten for three days, have you taken care of it? ”
Wen Jiu stopped Wen Si, yes! He can't even feed his own children, his father can't eat, and he can't help, what else can he do? What a man he is in vain!
Wen Si squatted on the ground in pain, covering his face, and was silent.
Wen Jiu tugged at his collar and looked at Xiao Xia, who had been sitting in the first place without making a sound, and was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the person who entertained him would be a little girl or a beautiful little girl.
Shen Xiaoxia is a girl after all, so usually when she sees outsiders, Shen Fei will stand aside as a transparent person. Shen Fei saw that Wen Jiu's eyes were wrong, and immediately snorted.
"This is our second girl, and the second girl can call the shots about selling land."
Shen Fei has practiced martial arts, and he has the heroic spirit that a person who practices martial arts should have, plus he has seen a lot in the past two years, and the hard energy on his body is more than enough to scare and scare the mountain village.
Wen Jiu was taken aback, shrunk his head and quickly lowered his head.
"How much land are you going to sell?" Xiao Xia saw that the other party had rules, so he spoke
Wen Jiu thought for a while and said, "All the five acres of paddy fields are sold. ”
Xiao Xia listened, and looked at him again, but he was a little brainy, probably thinking that the drought was dry, and the paddy fields could not be planted, and the dry fields might still be planted, so he left the dry fields.
"Okay, you know the price! When you bring the title deed, when you can pull the grain. ”
Wen Jiu hurriedly took out a small bag from his arms. "I've brought it."
Xiao Xia is also happy. gave Jixiang a look and said, "The title deed stays, and Jixiang takes him to weigh the grain." ”
Ji Xiang led the smiling Wen Jiu away, and Wen Si still squatted on the ground and thought.
"You don't have as much as your brother thinks, you see that you are a safe person, and you don't want to sell land in your heart, but your family is out of food again, isn't it?"
Wen Si still didn't move, and he didn't answer, and generally silent people were very seriously defended in their hearts, and they were unwilling to open their hearts to others. Xiao Xia didn't care, and then cared.
"It's not easy for you to last four or five days with more than three catties of coarse grain, how about the doll who should still drink milk?"
