Wen Jin called Pomegranate in: "Go to Shiwei Village and invite Young Master Shi." ”

This is the first time Wen Jin has sent someone to invite, Shi Zhenzong is very happy, and there is wind under his feet all the way, but he didn't expect to be very disappointed for the sake of an unrelated family.

"Zhenzong, don't you think that such a scumbag needs to be taught a lesson?" Wen Jin saw that the light in Shi Zhenzong's eyes was extinguished all of a sudden, and he wanted to arouse his sense of justice, Shi Zhenzong was the most fond of fighting grievances.

"You say, how can you teach him?"

"If I pay to buy this family, this old grandson will inevitably take the silver away, how can such a person get this money? So, you're going to have to do a favor. ”

"Okay, no problem."

Outside Shiwei Village, there were people fleeing from the famine, so Shi Zhenzong used a few bowls of porridge to replace them for a play.

The old grandson drank a bowl of porridge just now, and he was not so hungry at this time, but he was even more hungry, seeing that his wife was holding his six-year-old son, thinking of just now, his wife was desperately blocking herself, and asked her eldest son Sun Dongping to feed a bowl of porridge to the child, so he didn't get angry, he stretched out his foot and kicked the woman's back: "Anyway, you can't live, you are still wasting food in vain, and you sincerely want me to die, don't you?" You bitch, if I die, you can marry the lame Liu next door. ”

The woman was so angry that she trembled: "I've seen someone robbing things, but I've never seen you like this, snatching a green hat and buttoning it on your head, when have I ever looked at Liu Cripple more?" ”

"Then why does he always look at you?"

"Who in our village doesn't look at me like that? That's pity for me, pity me for being unladylike, married to a Laipi. ”

"Say it again, see if I don't kill you."

"You fight, if you don't kill me, you won't be raised by your parents, you brute, I don't want to live for a long time."

The old grandson stopped his hand instead: "Hmph, you're so beautiful, do you want to die?" It's not that easy. Go, go to the village in front of you, and ask me something to eat. ”

The two were arguing, and a person came over on the road, and it looked like Shui Ling had fled.

"Cousin, I hurriedly came to you, it was someone in the town in front of me who gave porridge."

"Really?"

"What do you do, go quickly, you have to queue up, if it's late, you won't have anything to eat tomorrow morning."

The old grandson got up and walked behind the people.

Yan Ping hid in the bushes, and saw that his father's figure blended into the hazy night, and the footsteps could not be heard, so he ran out: "Mother, the owner of Zhaobao promised to buy us, I begged her, we don't need money, just cure my brother's illness." ”

"Really?"

"Really."

"Your brother went to the front village to beg for food, hoping to have a mouthful of porridge to save your brother, just now he only drank a few sips, and let your father snatch the bowl away." The woman sighed, "Your brother is hungry, if he can eat enough, he should get better slowly." ”

After waiting for a while, a person ran over from the entrance of Shiwei Village: "Mother, the porridge is here." ”

The people of Shiwei Village were also short of food, and the porridge was so thin that there were few grains of rice, so the family was full of hope, put the bowl to the mouth of the dying little boy, and slowly fed it with a spoon.

"Mother, let's go, it's best tonight, let's sign the deed of sale, otherwise, when Daddy comes back tomorrow, I don't know how much trouble it will be."

"Oh, let's go."

Sun Dongping picked up his younger brother Xiaoping, Yan Ping stretched out his hand to help his mother, and the family walked towards Wen Jin's house.

Shi Zhenzong and Wang Dashan were middlemen, and Sun Dongping, as a representative, sold the family to Wen Jin, he didn't want money, he just wanted Wen Jin to help his younger brother hire a doctor and cure the disease.

Wen Jin saw the child in Huang's arms, swollen, and suspected that it was caused by a lack of protein, so he took some soybeans and millet and made the pomegranate boil a pot of porridge. If you are hungry for a long time, you don't dare to eat too full, and you can't eat anything that is too hard to digest, and porridge is the best food at this time. The Sun family ate two full meals in a row and then got up.

The next morning, Wen Jin asked the pomegranate to make duck egg tea for Sun Xiaoping, for several days, the child had three duck eggs to eat every day, and the swelling on his body slowly went down, and the illness was really much better.

Unexpectedly, the old grandson never came back, and the Sun family later heard that he went to Heyang County to work, so they were relieved. Three years later, the imperial court found that someone was stealing coal in Sujiawan, Heyang, and sent troops to encircle and suppress, and rescued more than 30 potters who had been tortured to the point of being skinny, according to them, no one could survive a year when they got there, and the people who fled the famine in Lingshui County died here, not 10,000, but 8,000, and the old grandson, it is estimated that he is inside.

Whether it is Shiwei Village or Dongshe Village, people with conscience admit that Wen Jin is a good master, and more and more people come to beg her to sell themselves as slaves, so Wen Jin is like a hired worker, let these people work for a few days for their own observation, and finally pick some neat and capable ones and sign the deed of sale.

Besides, the old road of the Jinhe River, not only the flood was a disaster, but also several other counties, there were many people who came out to beg for food, Wen Jin took the opportunity to buy wood, not only expanded the farm, but also built a large yard in the north of his yard for long-term workers to live.

People who come out to escape the famine and ask for food are good if they can eat a full meal, and they don't expect to earn wages, Wen Jin's side eats well, they have no complaints, and they work very hard.

Within a month, all the work was completed, and the masons also built kang for each house according to Wen Jin's guidance.

There is a lot of firewood on the mountain, and Wen Jin asked them to burn the kang in order to move over as soon as possible, hoping to dry the house as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, among these craftsmen, there are those with active brains, and after they took their wages and left, they put out the signboard of Pankang and looked for work everywhere. Liangzhong Province was not so cold before, and the fire kang in the north did not come over, and after listening to the introduction of the plasterer, many people, especially the elderly, were willing to build a kang to resist the severe cold of winter.

It is also unexpected that a disaster would still play such a role.

The political envoy of Liangzhong Province gave the disaster information to the imperial court, just when the disaster victims were really unbearable, the imperial court disaster relief Qin sent to come, Shanyang County because there were not many disaster victims, there was no relief food, those disaster victims heard about the things in their hometown, they hurried back, and this side finally calmed down.

Wen Jin gathered the subordinates he bought: "If you regret it and want to go back to your hometown and return my silver, I will return your deed of sale, and the transfer of ownership from the county government will definitely not deliberately make things difficult." ”

No one proposed to leave, they went back, they still had to face the barren land, and they still had to starve and be trapped when the green and yellow were not harvested, Wen Jin could let them have no worries about food and clothing, they only needed to work hard, the simple farmer did not feel the inconvenience of selling himself into slavery, and naturally did not want to leave.

Wen Jin cherishes her hard-won "family" very much, on the one hand, she is strict, and on the other hand, she is caring, and the people are getting better and better for her.

When the summer solstice arrived, Wang Mingshan was going to take care of the lacquer shop again, Wen Jin saw that Liu Sanjing was honest and willing to work, and he was also a good hand at crop work, so he asked him to take the lead in working in the field.

Sun Dongping has a few brothers, obviously smarter than other children, Wen Jin observed for a while, felt that these two big ones, there was a chivalrous spirit in his heart, when he went out, he took them and pomegranates, focused on cultivating, and really lived up to expectations, two months later, they first worshiped Wen Jin, and later, they obeyed Wen Jin's dispatch with all their hearts, even the ideas, everything is Wen Jin first.

Wen Jin arranged for them at the right time to follow Shi Zhenzong to learn a few tricks. As a woman, her physical condition is limited, and her self-defense skills can deal with ordinary men, but if she wants to compete with men who have practiced twice, she still has some shortcomings, she hopes to train two bodyguards for herself, and Sun Dongping and Sun Yanping are two good seedlings.

In the blink of an eye, August 15 is approaching, and Wen Jin's more than a dozen kiwifruit trees transplanted from the mountains are full of fruits, and the first batch of kiwi fruits has ripened. Although he couldn't catch up with the largest merchant in the provincial capital, Wen Jin finally found a few vendors who specialize in selling fruits, only a thousand catties, Wen Jin also wants to dry some dried fruits, and then make some jam, but the fresh fruits that can be sold are only a few hundred catties, and these people are enough.

Of course, it is not enough to cultivate the fruit market in the provincial capital, and Wen Jin cannot let go of the market under the nose of the county seat and the prefecture. On this day, she called the Dongping brothers in: "Send the three of you to sell fruits, do you dare to go?" ”

"Dare!" After a few months of recuperation, Xiaoping has long been alive, he is the most lively of the three brothers, and his appearance is also very cute.

"Xiaoping, when you go out, you must be obedient, don't go alone, and be careful of encountering traffickers who shoot flowers."

"yes, I know."

"You two, you can't let Xiaoping out of sight, remember, let him walk in front of you."

"Yes!" Dong Ping and Yan Ping were very moved, and felt that they were really a good master.

Yan Ping is quick-witted, but he has an honest face, coupled with a sweet mouth, and the business turnover rate is higher than that of his brother and younger brother.

On August 14, Wen Jin handed over the trivial matters of Shiwei Village to Liu Sanjing, and he took a donkey cart with some kiwi fruit and other fruits transplanted from the mountains, such as green apples and persimmons, and returned to the mountain nest.

Qian Xiancheng actually bought a pair of stone lions at the gate, grinning majesticly, and the simple and calm small courtyard, not at all compatible, Wen Jin stood there and smiled, and then raised his feet to enter the door, Zhao Bao and Pomegranate carried things, followed closely.

"Second uncle, second aunt."

"Wen Jin is back." Wei was drying lotus seeds in the yard, and he was very happy to see Wen Jin.

"Didn't Brother Wen Han say that he was home today?" Wen Jin looked around.

"It's not coming back." The voice suddenly sounded from behind, only a few steps behind Wen Jin, and behind him, Wei Chenglan was also followed.

"Sister, I just went to Fucheng and picked up Wen Han to my home." Wei Chenglan tried to plant rice this year, and the current growth is not bad, there is hope, there is a head, and his person seems to be younger than the previous two years.

Wen Jin hurriedly helped his uncle to get Wen Han's luggage, but it was a few catties of glutinous rice, dates, snacks, cotton, and cloth that they bought back in Fucheng.

"Hey, why didn't you say hello when you saw me?" Wen Jin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this familiar voice.

When Shen Jun smiled and passed by Wen Jin, he heard her whisper: "Is it okay for your relatives not to go once?" ”

"The fourth uncle is not at home, will you let me go back and face the face of Shen Ping's family?" He also whispered.

"Oh!" Poor child, Wen Jin said in her heart, but raised her voice and said, "Brother, what do you want to eat?" I'll do it. ”

Wen Han asked Shen Jun with a smile: "Are you still worried about fat intestines?" ”

"I want to eat fish." Shen Jun knew that the fat intestines had to go to the market to buy, which was very troublesome, and the fish was raised in a pond not far from home.

When Qian Xiancheng heard it, he hurriedly went to the pond, and soon brought back two large crucian carp with a pound, even Wen Jin felt strange, it was not easy for crucian carp to grow to such a big size.

Wei took the pomegranate and cleaned the persimmon green fruit and kiwifruit in the kitchen and put them on the plate, and the dim sum that Wen Han brought back was also put on a plate and brought out and placed on the table of the Eight Immortals under the plane tree in the courtyard.

"Sit down and take a sip of tea, you're tired."

"Don't be tired, aunt, I'm bothering again." Shen Jun said with a grin.

"What do you say, this child, my aunt is looking forward to your coming?"

Wen Jin asked Zhaobao to clean the crucian carp, went to the pond by himself, caught a duck, and picked a few fresh lotus pods and water chestnuts by the way, and brought them back to cook.

"Young master, pomegranate will cook, just recruit Brother Bao to help light the fire." Pomegranate rolled up her sleeves and wanted to show off her skills.

"Okay." Wen Jin has been away from home for a long time this time, and she also wants to have a good chat with the second uncle's family.

"Brother Wen Han, you have grown fast enough this year, you are taller than the second uncle."

"Alas, Wen Jin, I don't have enough knowledge to grow my bones." Wen Han was very happy, and his mouth was still modest.

Shen Jun patted him on the shoulder: "Are you sarcastic about me?" ”

"Why, didn't you compare me to this? In the school, the questions raised stumped Mr., and the dean personally met with you and gave you guidance, how could I have such an honor as you. ”

Wen Jin smiled: "Second uncle, uncle, look at the two of them, they praise each other, don't blush." ”

Wen Han really blushed, but Shen Jun didn't think so: "You listen to what Wen Han said, who can't ask a problem, there is a specialization in the art industry, there is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and the sages all say that the teacher does not have to be inferior to the disciple." ”

"Look, saying that he is fat, this is a gasp, he actually said that the teacher is not as good as the disciple?" Wen Jin took the quote out of context and ridiculed Shen Jun, making everyone laugh.

Suddenly, the small courtyard was full of laughter and joy.

"Bang!" Someone kicked the door open.

Qian Xiancheng stood up all of a sudden, and hurriedly walked out: "Who?" ”

Coming in was a servant armed with a fire and water stick: "Who is the master?" “

"I, I, what do you have to do?"

"You? What is the last name? ”

"The villain's name is Qian Xiancheng."

"Someone sued you for overstepping the system, the facts are there, come with us."

"Overdue?" Qian Xiancheng's eyes were about to fall out in surprise, he looked around at his yard, a very ordinary farmhouse courtyard, where could it be overrun?

"Don't pretend to be garlic, what is your identity, you dare to put a fox at the door, or seven patterns, I heard that you also made a flagpole, and it hasn't been shipped over, hum, your son is still a showman, and when he wins, it's not too late for you to prepare for these."

"Wronged, I wronged, that pair of sinister beasts was transported here by two stonemasons, the ox cart was broken, and the temporary storage was not bought by me."

"When?"

Qian Xiancheng thought for a while: "Last month, the beginning of the month." ”

"Hmph, I still want to deceive people! Temporary storage? Can it be placed temporarily for dozens of days? Come with us. ”

Another official came in, shaking the iron chain in his hand, and put it around Qian Xiancheng's neck, and said viciously: "Where is the stonemason temporarily stored here?" If you take out the evidence, you will be wronged. ”

Qian Xiancheng's face was pale, beads of sweat the size of beans were falling down, he didn't even ask what the stonemason's surname was at that time, and at this moment, he couldn't even say a word.

The people in the courtyard knew that he had been framed. Wen Jin's mind was spinning rapidly, but there was no way for a while. Just last month, he left Shanyang County and was promoted to the Tongzhi of Yunzhou Mansion.

The new county official has just arrived, Wen Han doesn't know him at all, and Qian Xiancheng's wrongs today are much more difficult to deal with than the last time.

"Wait!" Shen Jun stepped forward and stood in front of Qian Xiancheng, "That pair of stone lions was custom-made by me and stored here." ”

"Yo ho, the donkey trough sticks out of the horse's mouth, who are you? I don't want to live anymore, dare to interfere with the official handling of the case! The official holding the chain shook his hand violently, and the sound of rattling was full of threat.

"Who am I, you don't deserve to ask." Shen Jun said, pulling out a small black sign hanging around his neck, like iron but not iron, like jade but not jade, the material is very delicate and smooth, he took it off his neck, and lit up in front of the officer's eyes, "Do you know this?" I don't know, crawl back and call the county magistrate to come over. ”

The official obviously didn't know the goods, but he knew the pattern carved on this small brand, which was a four-clawed python, and only the totem allowed to be used by the first-class officials and princes and nobles.

The two officials glanced at each other, their faces were a little pale, they didn't dare to suspect that the young man in front of them was scaring people with other people's things.

Shen Jun's extravagance, coupled with his serious face, actually gave people a very strong sense of coercion, which made the two officials panic, their legs weakened, and they couldn't help kneeling on the ground: "I'm sorry, uncle, we were also ordered to run errands, please raise your noble hand and spare the small one." ”

"Who sent you?"

The faces of the two officials were so white that they lost their blood all of a sudden, and they didn't want to say anything.

"Huh?"

"Zhao, Zhao catches the head."

"Who gave Zhao Zhutou's order?"

"Ji, Ji County."

"Who reported it?"

"I don't know, I really don't know."

Wen Jin stepped forward: "Hmph, you just don't say it, we are also like a mirror in our hearts, who else can there be besides that person?" "Qian Xiancheng now, although he has a little bit of consciousness, according to Wen Jin, he is guarding against the big house, but no matter what, he can't accept his eldest brother, and he will frame him. The last time he was framed and imprisoned, Wen Jin pointed out that it was Qian Xiangui who did it, and Qian Xiancheng's heart was really a little resistant to such an inference, he had a trace of luck, thinking that the thief did know him in Wang Juren's house.
