Chapter 69: Wang's scruples
Qi Yougui didn't approve of the peasant family's business, but when he heard that Qi Younian's stall was going to be expanded, more tables, chairs and manpower. His first reaction was to object: "No, people often say that there is no business without treachery, and there is no business without treachery." Trading is not done by our farmers, and a small subsistence business is counted, if it is done in a big way, attracting people's eyes, where can we fight the hearts and minds of those people in the county? ”
Qi Younian is also helpless, his eldest brother's brainless is really hard to change.
He glanced at the two villagers passing by, nodded his head to say hello, and lowered his voice and said, "Big brother, I didn't say that I wanted to do business in Dali." Isn't our stall too small for guests to sit down? I'm just thinking that while I still have the energy, I can do more to make a living, and I can save a little bit of money, and I can come back to buy a few acres of land, and Jia'er can have a foundation for a prosperous life in the future. ”
Speaking of Qi Jia's future and buying the field, Qi Yougui hesitated.
The old man only came back at a young age, and there was no room in the house and no ridge, and he was stubborn and refused to divide the family property again. If there is really no land and house left for Jia'er, Jia'er and Ye Zi will really not be able to live in the future.
Qi Yougui thought for a while before he made up his mind: "This is also true, Jia'er is still young, so he should plan for his future." That's it, now the work in the field is not busy, I will let the two of them help you, the family, you don't have to say anything about the salary to me, just let the two of them do the work. ”
Qi Younian smiled suddenly: "Big brother, you are doing work in the fields, and you don't know anything about the world, right?" It's all temporary, how can there be an adult who is busy dressing people and doesn't earn wages? ”
Qi Yougui was a little annoyed, "You have been outside for a long time, and you are outside with your family." Listen to me, Chengzi has helped you do things in the past, and if you talk to me about wages again, don't recognize me as a big brother! ”
"......" Qi Younian looked at the gray-haired eldest brother in great surprise. Isn't it, just a few just and reasonable words to talk about his old man's anger?
"Are you in a hurry? I'll discuss with your sister-in-law and let Chengzi and his family go over tomorrow. Qi Yougui was about to get up immediately.
Qi Younian hurriedly grabbed him, "Big brother, don't you want to think about it, how can the farmer's work be done?" Qi Cheng is the eldest grandson of the family, and he is at the age when he can contribute to the family, but he comes to me every day to do day labor, leaving the family's farm work to his father, uncle and several younger siblings, is this reasonable? ”
Qi Younian waved his hand indiscriminately, "Okay, I'm here today to say hello to the eldest brother, and the eldest brother agrees." When exactly when I needed manpower, I asked Ye Zi to come over and discuss with my sister-in-law. ”
"How's that going to work?" Qi Yougui objected repeatedly. Ye Zi discussed with his wife, and the old woman asked for wages for the first and second rooms. The old/second is a lot old, and he has just started to earn his belongings, how can his family earn his salary again? Absolutely not.
"Big brother, be quiet." Qi Younian stopped his loud voice, "There is no shadow of the matter, eldest brother should not say it, if you let the Yourong family know, I will be annoyed." How can there be a real job in his family, if the two nephews and nephews in the third room are involved, I don't have to do business, and I will directly close the matter. ”
Qi Yougui has a good quality of being kind and flowing, and when he heard Qi Younian's words, he immediately restrained his expression, and looked around a few times with a sneaky look.
I thought in my heart, the old/second is right, the two sons of the third are really unreliable. It's better to make a living at home, but few people come to invite them, just because those two boys are too cunning to do their work.
"Okay, I still have something to do at home, so I'll go back first." Qi Younian got up from the shade of the tree, patted the soil on his buttocks, and went home.
Qi Yougui didn't hold it, and he didn't dare to shout at him, so he could only watch Qi Younian leave, and then returned to his yard with a heavy heart.
As soon as he entered the door, Wang Shi asked, "Old man, what is his second uncle doing here?" "Could it be that his family has something to do and needs help?
Qi Yougui looked at the wary expression on Wang's face, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, "It's okay, just come here and chat." Before the words fell, he turned around and went back to the house, leaving Wang behind.
Qi You's nobleman entered the room, but he felt helpless in his heart. No way, family affairs are annoying, if you tell your mother-in-law what you mean at this time, even if this mother-in-law endures this time, she may nagging with the two daughters-in-law when she returns, and the second daughter-in-law will toss to the third room ......, or forget it, don't talk about it.
Ye Xinyan got Qi Younian's approval letter, and immediately began to plan how much more rice tofu to make every day, the dishes and chopsticks, tables and stools, ingredients and seasonings, as well as rice noodles and utensils.
The next day, Qi Younian asked the carpenter Wang in the village to order two sets of tables and stools. In order to avoid the people in the village, Ye Xinyan went to Qi Yougui's house before taking a nap to discuss the matter of Qi Cheng's helper with his grandmother Wang.
Qi Yougui was resting in the courtyard, and when he saw Ye Xinyan coming in, he immediately beckoned her into the house: "Ye Zi is here, come in and sit in the house." ”
Qi Sanshun has been playing well with Qi Jia these days, and he is very familiar with Ye Xinyan, "Eldest sister, why didn't you bring Xiao Jia'er when you came to my house?" He usually didn't dare to go far, saying that the eldest sister and Mama Jin wouldn't let him. ”
Ye Xinyan glanced at the old and young in the courtyard, and said with a smile: "I came to find my uncle and grandmother today, and I have something serious." Be sure to take him next time you come. ”
"Oh, then I'll play by myself." Qi Sanshun's face was regretful, and he turned around and ran out. Han's continuous shouting didn't let him stay for half a moment.
Wang's face was puzzled, and he stood under the eaves and did not move.
The niece and granddaughter of the second room is not an ordinary village woman, according to her, although the second room has Qi Younian in charge, but the role played by this young woman in it cannot be ignored. And now, this niece and granddaughter came to her to find her something? If there is something in the second room, shouldn't you talk to your old man? How did you find her head?
Ye Xinyan greeted the two cousins who accompanied Qi Yougui to rest in the cold, and then said to the Wang family with a smile: "Uncle Grandmother, I have something I want to discuss with you, let's go into the house and talk." ”
Wang couldn't bear it, so he could only reluctantly go to the upper room.
Ye Xinyan stepped forward and smiled at Qi Yougui, who was originally resting in the courtyard: "Uncle Grandfather, rest, I'll go in first." ”
Qi Yougui, who was about to step forward to keep up, heard it, did he plan to let him participate? The steps that had been taken stopped awkwardly, not knowing whether to enter the house forcefully, or to stay in the shade of the tree honestly.
Han just pulled his sister-in-law Xu out of the kitchen, wanting to take the opportunity to listen to Ye Xinyan's matter, but when he came out, the old man who was the head of the family was blocked out, and it was even more impossible for them to get together.
Wang's face is very ugly, and the old man of his family has always said that his second uncle has no room and no ridge of land, and he takes more care of the second room. Now that the second room has started to buy and sell, life is much better, but the poor foundation is there, just look at the dilapidated yard and house, you can know that the second room will not change much in a short period of time. This niece and granddaughter found her own house, and she had to talk to the old man behind her back, I don't know what happened?
