Chapter 123: Whose Mansion (1)
After a few days of hurrying, the first courtyard of the Zhao family has been almost built, and everyone will go to build the second courtyard after the war room, only wait until the end, and then renovate the main house, then Ruixue can move directly to the backyard to live, so as not to toss twice.
The villagers have occupied the wasteland two days ago, and even changed the bean seeds, only after the first half of the month, the rain is enough, and they began to cultivate, at this time, they only feel that there is an extra financial road at the beginning of the new year, which is a good sign, everyone has a smile on their faces, while doing the work, they gossip about who occupies more wasteland, who leaves home, and it is very lively.
In the courtyard of the Zhang family next door, Rui Xue and Aunt Yun are busy making steamed buns with a few little daughters-in-law, steaming steamed buns and stews at noon every day these days, and serving more than 40 people to eat, and the work is really not easy.
Today, Ruixue was lazy, thinking that as long as she steamed two hundred steamed buns and boiled a pot of bone tofu soup, everyone would be able to eat and eat deliciously, and the women would save a lot of effort.
Sure enough, as soon as the first pot of big buns came out of the pot, the fragrance attracted a few young students who went to Zhou's house to lift the doors and windows, and looked into the courtyard vigorously, and two of them even almost smashed their feet.
When Rui Xue saw it, she smiled and called them to stop and rest for a while, and each of them shared a big bun, and they all praised it.
The women in the village, most of them get up when the sky is slightly bright, first take advantage of the light to do embroidery work for half an hour, and then feed the pigs and chickens, cook, serve the in-laws, husbands and children, it is very hard, often when it is their turn to eat, there is no cold porridge left. Rui Xue heard Sister-in-law Zhang talk about it, while sympathizing, she was very glad that she was not reborn in such a daughter-in-law, although she also suffered some hardship in marrying Zhao Fengnian, but at least she was not angry, so she treated a few little daughters-in-law who came to help very well these days, especially in terms of food.
Every day when I get up early to cook, I will cook a few more egg cakes and the like, put them in the pot and heat them, and when the little daughters-in-law arrived, I asked them to help eat under the pretext of being afraid of spoilage, and then I began to take them busy. If they wished, when they returned in the evening, they could pick up a large bowl of leftovers and let them take them home, which was very generous and generous.
Originally, a few little daughters-in-law came to help, all listened to the instructions of their in-laws, thinking about making friends with the Zhao family, and when the time came, they could work in the workshop and add an entry to the family. Get along with a group of harmony.
Just now, as soon as the big white buns came out of the pot, Rui Xue beckoned them to eat first, and they were not polite, giggling and shouting about incense, and joked that they were going to steal the recipe and go into the city to open a shop, Rui Xue didn't care, and said with a smile that he would give them the capital when the time came, which made several people laugh even more.
Aunt Yun also loves this big bun very much, and after eating one, she felt half full in her stomach, and while picking it up in the dustpan, she beckoned a few little daughters-in-law, "It's time to start eating in half an hour, let's get to work." ”
The little daughters-in-law responded, and divided one to go outside the courtyard to pick up firewood and add it to the pot stove where the soup was boiling, and the remaining few continued to wrap buns, pack drawers, and open steaming on the stove, when they were busy, the little daughter-in-law who hugged firewood He suddenly ran back from outside the yard and exclaimed, "Zhao Niangzi, it seems that something happened!" ”
"What's wrong?" Rui Xue got up and patted the thin noodles on her hands, frowned slightly, and comforted the little daughter-in-law named Peach Blossom, "Peach Blossom girl, if you have something to say, speak slowly." ”
Peach Blossom stretched out her hand and pointed to the courtyard of the Zhao family in the east, "I saw that, an old woman with two men broke into your yard." ”
When everyone heard this, they all put down their work and said, "Maybe which village came to buy tofu?" ”
"I'll go back and see, you guys are busy first, and then steam five baskets of steamed buns, enough to make up two hundred, so as not to eat enough at noon." Ruixue instructed and went out to rush over.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw an old man and two young standing on the ground in public, looking at the brand-new wings on both sides very presumptuously, with a sound in his mouth, and the greed on his face, which could be seen by a person with long eyes.
A few villagers carrying green bricks were standing aside, and when they saw Ruixue coming in, Zhang Dahe's third brother shouted, "Lady Zhao, these people want to talk to Mr. Zhao." ”
The old woman and the two men heard that someone from the main family was coming, so they turned their heads and looked at Rui Xue from head to toe, and saw that it was a young daughter-in-law, and their faces were even more relaxed.
Rui Xue was looked at by them like this, and she didn't like it, and she intuitively thought that it was not a good thing for these people to come to the door, so she didn't say hello, but said to the third brother Zhang, "I'm tired of Brother Zhang to go to the back and ask Mr. to come over." ”
Zhang Laosan responded, and ran to the backyard construction site, and soon Zhao Fengnian, who heard the news, turned the corner door and walked out, and when he saw Rui Xue standing opposite to a few strangers, he asked, "Where is this guest?" ”
Ruixue shook her head and said in a low voice, "I don't know either, I heard that someone broke into our yard, so I rushed over." ”
Zhao Fengnian raised his eyebrows, looked at the old man and the young and asked, "Who are you, why did you trespass into my Zhao family's mansion?" ”
When the old woman heard him ask like this, she pursed her lips disdainfully, "Who said that this is your Zhao family's courtyard, this is obviously our Liu family!" I also want to ask you, why do you move the water and soil in our Liu family's yard? ”
Liu's yard? Rui Xue frowned, since she woke up, she learned that she was married to Zhao Fengnian, and she had been living in this dilapidated yard, and she had never asked Zhao Fengnian carefully, whether he bought this yard or borrowed it from whom, and heard him say that it was going to be renovated, so she took it for granted that this yard was her own, who would have thought that halfway through the construction, there were actually a few people who robbed the yard.
"Is this yard bought or borrowed? The deed is not in your possession? ”
Zhao Fengnian's brows were also furrowed, and he said in a low voice, "At the beginning, Li Zheng said that the room was vacant and sent me to live, and I was thinking about going to the government office together in a few days." ”
This means that the name of Zhao Fengnian is not on the deed, which is a bit difficult to do. However, since Li Zheng opened his mouth to send him away, he was sure that this house had no owner, why did a homeowner suddenly appear to snatch it now, and at such a time, is there anything strange about it?
The husband and wife of the Zhao family glanced at each other, they were a little vigilant, Zhao Fengnian slightly arched his hand at a few people, "This courtyard was sent to me by the clan elders and Li Zhengmen half a year ago, as for whether it was your Liu family before, I don't want to say much, and ask a few people to wait for a while, when Li Zheng and the clan elders come here, they will know." ”
After speaking, he invited a few helpers next to him, and went separately to invite the clan elders and Li Zheng.
The three of Liu Pozi, mother and son originally planned to make a statement to arouse the anger of the Zhao family and their husbands and wives, and when they quarreled, they pretended to be injured and blackmailed a sum of money, but they didn't expect that people would only listen to one sentence and go to invite the clan elders and Li Zheng, and they spoke very politely, and they didn't mean to quarrel with them at all, so the old woman was in a hurry, if Li Zheng and the clan elders arrived, she would definitely show her details, and it would be difficult to do it at that time.
As soon as she rolled her eyes, she walked to the wooden square next to her, knocked down a few, and scolded, "This is my yard, when did you pile up these broken things, hurry up and transport them to me, my Liu family's yard can be occupied by anyone?" ”
The two men also stepped forward to push the stacked green bricks next to them, and kicked the sand and baskets everywhere under their feet, just right, everyone in the backyard took a break, laughed and turned back, ready to wash their hands and faces, and waited to eat fragrant buns, but as soon as they saw someone destroying, they immediately swarmed forward, surrounded the mother and son of the Liu family in the middle, and shouted angrily, "Who are you, why are you harming things?" ”
There was a sharp-eyed person who recognized the mother and son, so he shouted, "Isn't this Han Laohu, who is from Jianshanzui, why did he run to our Yunjia Village to spread wild?" ”
The three of the Han family, mother and son, saw that there were few people in the front yard just now, so they thought that the yard was finished, and there was no one to bully the Zhao family. Then Boss Han pulled the old lady's sleeve and signaled her to hurry up.
Old Mrs. Liu immediately sat on the ground with a puff and began to cry, "Oh, the old Zhao family bullied our orphans and widows, seized our yard, not to mention, and killed people, there is no royal law, God, you open your eyes and kill them, pity our old Liu family..."
The old lady is obviously a frequent sprinkler, crying voice, high and low, skilled as singing a minor key, occasionally lying down and rolling for two rolls, scaring the surrounding villagers to immediately withdraw a few feet away, for fear of being relied on again, the two sons of the Han family saw that the old lady's killer weapon worked, and immediately became angry, and went to push the bricks and stones again, not to mention how arrogant they were.
The people of Yunjia Village surrounded them, looked at them with hatred, gritted their teeth with anger, turned around to find the Zhao family and their husbands, thinking about what countermeasures they had, but they saw the two of them standing together, without the slightest annoyance on their faces, as calm as if watching a play. When everyone saw this, they all felt strange, there was that shrewd, but they were shocked, and secretly said, the Zhao family and his wife were probably really annoyed.
When Li Zheng and several clan elders arrived, the yard had been ruined, and Mrs. Liu's "minor" was singing to the wonderful, "I want to be young and widowed, live with my two children, be bullied, be scolded, get old, and be robbed of family property..."
