At that moment, she saw an elderly couple coming over carrying a basket.

At first, Mrs. Zhao thought that there was still a basket in their house that they hadn't carried over.

As a result, the old couple put down the basket and stood still.

Like the rest of the village, they lined up to hand over the herbs.

Zhao Niangzi raised her eyebrows.

There are two baskets in other people's houses, and the flowers are still popping up.

He has only one basket in his house, but he can't even see the flowers in it.

Zhao Niangzi hooked the corners of her mouth expressionlessly, lowered her head and began to collect flowers.

Wei Xinlan and Wei Xianglan were on the side to help.

More than sixty households.

Some people handed over the herbs, took the money and left, while others stayed where they were, wanting to see how much money everyone else had taken.

So when it was the turn of the old couple at the end, in addition to Zhao Niangzi in the open space, there were many onlookers.

"Old Uncle Chen, did your family only accept so much this time?"

Everyone looked at them with deep meaning.

Old Uncle Chen's expression was sneering, he nodded casually, and he didn't speak.

Old Aunt Chen was not red or panting, and her face was heartbroken: "The chickens at home ran out before, and they were Huo Huo a lot, but this time I only received so much." ”

Wei Xinlan weighed, looked cold, and said, "Twenty-four catties." ”

Mrs. Zhao counted the money to the old couple.

Seeing that the old couple was about to leave immediately, he hurriedly stopped them, "Uncle and aunt wait a minute, let Xinlan and Jinyong go to your house to have a look." ”

Uncle Chen's mouth trembled, and Aunt Chen first smiled: "Is Mrs. Zhao going to make up flower seedlings for my family?" No, it's already grown, so there's no need to work hard for Miss Xinlan and Brother Jinyong to run this trip. ”

Zhao Niangzi smiled: "Let's go and have a look." ”

Old Aunt Chen lowered her face and said unhappily: "Mrs. Zhao suspects me of what this old woman has done?" ”

Wei Xianglan couldn't see that no one was angry with her shopkeeper, "Auntie, don't be angry, we have a contract first, and it is clearly stipulated that this flower cannot be used for personal use, and it cannot be expanded and planted privately." ”

"This time, sixty-four families have handed over more than two hundred catties of herbs, but your family is not even thirty catties, what is the situation, naturally you have to go and see clearly."

A little panic flashed in Old Aunt Chen's eyes.

But immediately calmed down again, muttering: "They all said that they were eaten by my chickens, the chicken coop was washed away by the rainstorm last night, and the flowers were pecked in the morning. ”

If Tang Jingyun is here, he will definitely pout.

With the nutrients she put in, the plants can survive if they are given a piece of land, even if the flowers are overgrown with weeds, they will not delay the yield, who needs to be carefully served?

The onlookers also knew what was going on, so they followed behind Wei Xinlan with baskets and went to Uncle Chen's house to watch the excitement.

Uncle Chen's house is on the edge of the village house.

The layout of the house is similar to that of other homes.

There are wooden fences on both sides, and the pigsty and chicken coops are on both sides of the yard.

There is a vegetable patch in it, and on both sides of the vegetable field are red flame flowers and snow jade nasturtiums.

As soon as everyone appeared by the wall of his house, they saw a clear difference.

The wooden fences on both sides of the house should have been covered with flowers and vines at this time, but now they are almost all empty.

Most of the vines in the two divisions are no more than a man's knee.

It's like it's just been planted for a long time, and they haven't even started to climb the frame.

Only two-tenths of the way to a small area of the wooden fence occupied a small part of the wooden fence, and the vines without flowers swayed in the wind.

said that he was pecked and eaten by chickens, but the big guy didn't have chickens.

We all know that chickens eat, peck a bite from east to west, and the plants that have been plucked by them look absolutely messy.

But these flower seedlings in front of me, which are less than knee-high, can't see the slightest appearance of being hoked by chickens! (.

Of course, Aunt Chen said before that the flower seedlings have already grown, so I can't see it.

But there was the sharp-eyed one, and at a glance it was clear that there were many of the vines that had not yet had time to grow, and there were marks of being cut by sharp weapons.

This old Chen family took scissors to cut the flower seedlings, and I don't know what to do with them, so this time his family received such a little.

Wei Xinlan looked around, didn't say anything at the moment, and went back to report to Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao is eating today's ginseng fruit with Tang Xiuyue at home with Miss Tang Xiuyue.

When he heard the news, he didn't get angry, but sighed.

"Greed is not enough to swallow the elephant......"

She's in business, not charity. w~

At noon that day, the people in the village who went home from work for dinner knew about it.

Everyone is waiting for what kind of reaction the Tang family will give.

By late afternoon.

A group of people who came home from work with hoes heard the crying from Lao Chen's house.

Everyone looked at each other and ran over to look.

I saw Wei Xinlan standing outside the courtyard of Lao Chen's house.

In the yard.

The two Wei family boys in the pharmacy who were recruited by the Tang family stood on each side, uprooting the snow jade golden lotus and red flame flower by the wooden fence and placing them in the basket next to them.

Uncle Chen next to him stood helplessly, not knowing what to do.

Old Aunt Chen was spicy, crying and shouting, and reached out to grab these two young men.

"You can't pluck my flowers! It's said that it was given to Huo Huo by chickens! It's terrible, the Tang family is also bullying! ”

These two young men also endured it, and their exposed arms were scratched and bleeding, and they didn't fight back, just plucked flowers with their heads suffocated.

After a while, the flowers in the yard were plucked and wiped out.

The two young men put aside the pestering old Aunt Chen, picked up the basket and left.

Old Aunt Chen's voice was broken, and she kept yelling that the Tang family disrespected their elders, bullied people, and so on.

also pointed at Wei Xinlan and scolded, saying that everything is a woman's family, why don't you leave any affection.

Wei Xinlan said expressionlessly when these scoldings passed through her ears like the wind: "You cut off the flower seedlings and take them back to your aunt's mother's house to plant, it is Uncle Chen and your aunt who are untrustworthy." ”

Old Aunt Chen's mournful cry suddenly stuck in her throat.

Wei Xinlan looked at Aunt Chen: "According to the contract, Uncle Chen and his aunt will compensate our owner for one hundred taels of silver." ”

Old Aunt Chen didn't dare to cry anymore, and finally began to be afraid.

Old Uncle Chen, who was standing in the yard, shook his body twice, looking like he was about to faint to the ground.

"However, our owner thinks that everyone is from the same village, and this time we will not pursue it, only pull out the flowers of my uncle and aunt's family, and the cooperation contract will be stopped, and your family will not want to plant my Tang family's flowers in the future." Wei Xinlan Road.

The rest of the words were for the onlookers to hear.

"Please don't take chances, how many flowers should be in the land, our owner is very clear, after all, this flower was cultivated by her own hands."

"Our host said that if the people in the village don't want to plant flowers with peace of mind, we will go to other villages to plant them, and it is not necessary to plant them in the village."

"If one defaults next time, the flowers of the remaining 63 families will also be pulled out and cannot be planted again."
