Chapter 105: Ask for a long time
In ancient times, because of the large amount of land in the family, the squire landlords were hired to work for long hours or tenants.
"Still buying people? What is the silver for? Your father and I are not old yet! It's better to find a few old crops in the village to ensure that you take care of the fields well. ”
Father Gu was stunned, he knew that Gu Chengyu had the ability to earn money, but the habit of buying people at every turn was not good, in fact, this was not changed from the thinking of the farmer.
The Lu family was also very happy that Gu Chengyu bought the land, and she followed and persuaded: "Listen to your father, he is not too old!" You can also do it, so you don't have to mess around in the house all day! ”
Gu Chengyu knew that Daddy Gu would say this, he originally bought the land for Daddy Gu's pastime, and when he heard his mother say the same, he immediately laughed. suddenly thought of Aunt Wang, and remembered that Father Gu had mentioned that the men of Aunt Wang's family were very practical in their work, and they could ask him for help.
"Daddy! If you want to find someone, it is better to find Aunt Wang's uncle, I think he is very diligent in doing things. Besides, Aunt Wang helped our family a lot before, so you asked him to work in our family and give him some silver every month, anyway, there was a lot of work in the field, and it also saved him from looking for work outside. ”
In fact, it is very hard to find a job outside, and the villagers have no skills and are illiterate, so they can only find some hard work. In the town, it is better to work in the fields, and the busiest time in the fields is only for two or three months, after which there is no work to do.
"It's good to invite people when you're busy, why don't you still support people if you don't work?" The Lu family does not have the concept of annual subscription and passing on as it is in modern times, she only knows that there is a lot of extra money in this way.
"Mother, if you buy land, then our family will have a hundred or dozens of acres, and there is a lot of work! Our family doesn't suffer! Besides, it's impossible for people to come with the rumor! It's better to give monthly money every month, just like a long-term worker. ”
"I think it's okay to do this, we have a lot of work in the field, call two long-term jobs, and the others are temporary, so it's nothing!" Daddy Gu thinks that long-term work is still cost-effective, so it is enough to call two less.
"Then you two will discuss." The characteristics of the Lu family and all ancient women are the same, generally the husband is the sky, since the head of the family and the son have decided, she is a woman and the Taoist family generally will not object.
Gu Wan saw that she was done talking, so she interjected, "That little Poke is a landlord!" ”
"That's it! I'll save you a dowry!" Gu Chengyu said with a smile, making Gu Wan blushful again.
When Gu Chengyu and Gu Wan returned to the room, the Lu family told the second child and Wang Yueniang.
"What? How is this possible? Don't you get me wrong? "In Gu's father's impression, Gu Chengyi is good at calculation, and Wang Yueniang is not a fairy, Gu Chengyi doesn't know if such a woman can be touched? How did these two get together?
"Everyone has seen it, and he still goes to people's houses in broad daylight! Others have done that shameful thing, and they still know to hide, he is good, as if everyone doesn't know. "As soon as the Lu family talks about the second child, they are angry, and the second child and the second family are the most treacherous, often acting as demons, and they are all separated, and they don't stop.
Father Gu saw that Lu Shi swore by what he said, and then he felt that it might be true, "No wonder I can't see the second child recently, and I don't see him to pick up his mother-in-law back, I think this thing is true." ”
"Then can there be a fake?" Lu Shi rolled his eyes, expressing deep disdain for Daddy Gu's unacceptable appearance.
"Is the dick at home? Didn't you say that you were going to pick up his mother-in-law? Father Gu stood up and was about to go to the second room to find the second child, but suddenly remembered that the second child said yesterday that he would go to He's house to pick up his daughter-in-law, but he didn't see the two of them today, could it be that he hadn't come back yet?
"I didn't see it anyway, who knows where he picked up someone?" The Lu family is also not used to the cold pot and cold stove in the second room, a mother-in-law does not know how to teach her husband and children at home, and she returns to her parents' house when she sees the world.
Father Gu ran to the yard to take a look, and found that there was indeed no one in the second room.
"Boss, are you in the house? After eating, I will come to the main house. Father Gu shouted at the big house, at this time, Gu Chengli should be having lunch.
"Hey! Daddy, come on! Gu Chengli heard his father's shout, and hurriedly responded. After thinking about it, I thought I wanted to discuss the matter of holding a banquet at home.
"Daddy! You call me? Gu Chengli strode in, his father usually wouldn't call him if he was fine.
"Ahh Did the second child say yesterday that he was going to pick up his mother-in-law at He's house? "Yesterday, when the eldest and the second were talking, he heard a little.
"Yes! It's strange, why hasn't the second child come back yet? He rarely stayed overnight when he went to He's house. Gu Chengli also felt strange, he felt that the second child had been very wrong recently.
"Then as soon as he returns, you will ask him to come to me, and say that I have something to talk to him." Daddy Gu frowned, neither of these two are worry-free!
"Good! By the way, Dad, when is the banquet scheduled for this time? ”
"On the eighteenth, you went to the homes of your close people in the past two days and called them to come for dinner that day." Gu Chengyu's entourage will prepare the things to buy for the banquet, and he only needs to find a few women to help.
Gu Cheng responded politely, turned around and prepared to go out.
"Oh! On the sixteenth day, the family introduced by Li Langzhong wanted to come to see each other, and you also came over, called your mother-in-law, and also came to recognize people! "Father Gu thought of seeing each other on the sixteenth day, when the time came, the woman came, and the Fang family could also help take care of it.
"Hey! Dad, then I'll go back and talk to his mother and ask her to come over early that day to help! Gu Chengli happily agreed, and the fourth child also reached the age of talking about his daughter-in-law. This year, if you become a parent, you will be able to get married next year, and my father has a lot of thoughts.
"I have a mother-in-law at home, I don't need you, just come and sit!" Father Gu didn't ask his daughter-in-law to come over to work, but as a sister-in-law, he still had to come forward.
After Father Gu finished speaking, he looked at Gu Chengli, only to see that the clothes on his body were torn and patched, and he frowned.
"You were dressed brightly that day, and you didn't have no money after the separation, why are you still wearing so shabby? When you have time, ask your daughter-in-law to go to the cloth village to pull some cloth and make some clothes. I see that the big girls don't have any decent clothes, they are all big girls, although they are not male babies, but in the end the family is also a little bit of a family, don't be reluctant! ”
Father Gu looked at his eldest son's tanned face and sighed. Originally, his family was poor, and he had to calculate, but now that his life is better, he is helpless to the eldest couple who are reluctant to even pull their clothes.
"Alas! Isn't that work? The dress is a little torn, the last time Xiaobao came back and brought the material, his mother did it, he was not willing to put on it, and he would not let you lose face that day. ”
Gu Chengli was also embarrassed by his father, although he had a lot of money in the family, and he could still share it at the end of the year, but he also saw that Da Lang was studying, and he would definitely not succeed, he was far worse than his uncle, and he would have to find another way out in the future. The money has to be saved, and when the three daughters get married, the dowry must be a little, right?
