Chapter 166: Winter Comes
Zhang Orion saw that Li Chang was suddenly polite, and he was both frightened and proud.
It's all for the sake of his daughter's face!
When he accompanied Wang Youfu all the way to the school to find Han Yan, Zhang Orion's waist was straight and he walked with the wind.
Han Yan was in the yard to collect the prey for taxation, when he heard the sound of people and went over to open the door.
"Uncle Zhang!" Han Yan greeted with a smile, turned his head and saw Wang Youfu behind him, and arched his hand again, "Captain." ”
When Wang Youfu heard these two other titles, he was envious and sighed in his heart.
In the past, what he liked to hear the most was that everyone respectfully called him "Li Chang" or "Li Chang", but now he desperately hoped that Han Yan could call him "Uncle Wang" like Zhang Orion.
When Han Yan settled in the badger village, he reported to him with a gift.
At that time, he thought that he was just a foreigner, even if he was a little knowledgeable, what kind of waves could he make in this badger village that lived by hunting, because he was not very enthusiastic about him, and even played an official role.
Who knew that it had only been half a year, and the stranger in front of him who had wandered in the badger village had gone all the way from the deserted badger village to Liu County Ling, Tan Jiaoyu and other big figures, even he, the lieutenant, did not dare to slack off at all.
"Mr. Han!" Wang Youfu returned the salute with a smile, and when he entered the hospital, he was full of emotion when he saw that he had packed up half of the heavy prey.
"Don't dare to be." Han Yan said humbly.
The middle-aged man in front of him is of medium stature, white and fat, with two small goatees, and his small eyes are shining, but he is in charge of the rental livelihood of ten miles and eight villages such as Badger Village.
There is a saying that "Hades is easy to see, but the little devil is difficult", and it cannot be ignored.
Han Yan's politeness and politeness made Wang Youfu feel a lot more comfortable, pointing to the prey in the courtyard and praising with a smile: "I didn't expect Mr. Han to be an all-round talent in civil and military affairs!" I look at the prey in this yard, I'm afraid it's the first one in the badger village! ”
Han Yan is naturally modest.
Don't mention it, Uncle Zhang's prey is much richer than this.
After greeting for a while, Wang Youfu explained his intentions: "At the moment, when the autumn rent is the most critical, you have to hurry up and pay the money." If it is delayed, it will be difficult to say if the yamen finds it. ”
Han Yan smiled: "Yes, yes, yes." Thank you for the reminder. ”
Wang Youfu nodded, walked around the courtyard, and finally fell on the school next to Han's house.
Two large and bright adobe classrooms are particularly eye-catching.
I'm afraid that in a few years, this badger village will completely change its appearance!
Wang Youfu sighed with emotion in his heart.
After saying goodbye to Han Yan, the people went directly to Han Yong's house.
There are so many families in Badger Village, and they live scattered, if he, the chief, goes to collect rent one by one, he must not break his legs!
As usual, Han Yong will gather the villagers and listen to the training together.
……
Every year in autumn, there are leather traders stationed in Xiushui Hezi Town one after another, especially to catch up with the prosperous era of autumn rental transactions.
The market day is not like the usual day of the first two days, and the two streets that cross the north and south are full of people every day, which is very lively.
It won't stop until mid-October.
Zhang Lihu and Han Yan went to the yamen early to pay the rent, and then found a familiar fur merchant, and exchanged the fur and dried meat that they could not use for the winter into silver.
Zhang Li looked at the pile of scattered silver and copper plates on the kang, smiled from ear to ear, and sighed: "I haven't saved so much silver for many years, so I have to be able to convert it into four or five taels of silver." ”
All the needs of the family in winter have been purchased, that is, the materials and cotton for making new clothes for the New Year, she is also ready, these four or five taels of silver are leftover, and they can be kept for Shu Yu as a dowry!
Stay respectful!
Now there are more and more people who quietly come to the door to ask for their own children or for the children of relatives and friends, and she is really afraid that she will be picky when the time comes!
However, everything still depends on the meaning of your daughter.
and Wang Xi's experience, she can see that her daughter has a very bad temper, and without her nodding, no matter how good the outsider looks like her family, it will definitely not be successful.
Shu Yu didn't know that his mother-in-law was thinking about his own family affairs, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What is this bit of silver?" Mother, don't worry, I will definitely let you and your father live in Huawu in the future, and there will be people waiting for you in food, clothing, and daily life! ”
She still has this ability and self-confidence.
"You have a big mouth!" Zhang Li glanced at Shu Yu, but the joy on his face couldn't be hidden.
While carefully storing the silver money on the kang in his purse, he persuaded bitterly: "Your father and I are not greedy for your blessings, as long as you set your temperament early and marry yourself!" ”
Shu Yu had a headache when he heard this, and hurriedly raised his hands to say to him: "Okay, okay, mother, you can do well, just let me go." You don't bother you, my ears are calloused......"
Zhang Li was angry and funny, hammered Shu Yu with a pillow, glared at her, and said: "If you are annoyed, then hurry up and pick a family affair, and prepare to marry yourself smoothly!"
"Are you tired of listening? I'm still annoyed! ”
Shu Yu naturally tried his best to refute.
Zhang and Li "suppressed" with all their might.
Zhang Orion, who had long been accustomed to the quarrels between the two of them for family affairs, hurriedly put on his jacket and strode to the school to find Han Yan before the war burned to him.
Seeing that it was almost time to eat, when Han Yan came, the two of them would definitely have to go to the stove room to cook, so they couldn't care about these idle chatters.
When Zhang Orion arrived at the school, he saw that Han Yan was already carrying the wine jar in one hand and Xiao Wangzhi in the other, and was locking the courtyard door and coming out.
"Uncle Zhang!" Seeing people, Han Yan immediately raised his voice and greeted with a smile, "I was about to go to eat, but it happened that you came?" Is there something going on? ”
As he spoke, he stopped, ready to turn around and go back to open the courtyard door.
"No, no, no!" Zhang Orion hurriedly greeted him and waved his hand to stop him, and said with a smile, "I just came to see how your two men are tidying up, and asked you to go home for dinner!" ”
Han Yan smiled: "It's all cleaned up!" ”
After that, he raised the small wine jar in his hand again, and said with a smile: "Go back to Tan Mansion, the spring dew white sent by Mr. Tan happened to go over and have a drink with Uncle Zhang!" ”
Now that the hunt is over, the rent has been paid, and winter has arrived, it is time to take a good rest.
It's been a busy year, and I want to be quiet and leisurely this winter.
The whole mountain forest was silent at this time, many wild beasts gradually began to hibernate, the branches of deciduous trees gradually became sluggish, and even the water of the stream became clearer and gentle......
The mountains and forests are becoming more and more sparse and quiet, silently accumulating strength for a new reincarnation.
