Chapter 172: Zhang Hongcao

Although Tang Jingyun has a lot of money to build a road, it is impossible for her to pay all the costs.

She could have taken out most of the money and done good.

As for the rest, the villages will have to pay for it.

Tang Jingyun handed over this work directly to the foreman.

If he can persuade those people to build roads, then there will be projects and money to be made, but if he can't be convinced, then naturally there will be nothing.

The foreman was not stupid, and knew that Tang Jingyun was building the road to make plans for the future tea mountain.

He told the villagers that if the road was repaired, Tang Jingyun would be able to recruit tea workers in their village in the future, and it would be very convenient to go back and forth by horse-drawn carriage every day.

If it is not repaired, the carriage will run and delay time, then Tang Jingyun will have to go to another village to recruit.

With that said, things are going well.

Originally, the bad road on a rainy day was very annoying, and if it was not repaired before, it would cost too much money, and everyone was reluctant.

But now someone has made up some of them, and if they don't fix it, they will be a big fool.

At the end of December.

Tang Jingyun once again discussed with the villagers that he wanted to expand the snow jade golden lotus to another acre.

Nowadays, the demand for various goods in the domestic market is greatly opened.

Seeing that business is more prosperous, the number of caravans running all over the country has increased significantly, and the supply of skin care products in Tang's Pharmacy is increasingly outstripping.

It happens that this time is the dormant period of snow jade nasturtium, and it is most suitable to cut the flower seedlings and transplant them.

The flower field expanded again.

Correspondingly, the flour mill will also be expanded again, including a site for drying flowers.

Tang Jingyun bought two pieces of the worst inferior land in the village that others had opened up by themselves to build a house.

Of course, this is not in a hurry, as long as it is built in May next year, the most important thing at this time is the tea mountain.

As soon as December passes, the New Year is approaching.

The year is almost over.

In winter, there is basically no work in the fields, which is the most idle time for farmers.

At this time, there are many people who start a new house.

With an income of at least a dozen taels of silver per month, the families in the village are basically wealthy families.

In addition to building houses, matchmakers in the village have been coming and going recently, and they all come to the young guys in the village or other villages to ask for a matchmaker.

Now the unmarried guys and girls in Dayakouzi Village are definitely the hottest candidates in the countryside in Wen County, the capital city.

Because of this boom, there was a farce in the village.

The cause is the Zhang family sisters in the flour shop.

The Zhang sisters, sister Zhang Hongcao, and sister Zhang Gaoting were the first batch of flour workers recruited by Zhao Bingyan with Li Daihe.

The last time the noodle shop was expanded, it had already been promoted from an ordinary worker to a group leader.

These two sisters have a younger brother at home, and their father and mother are a bit patriarchal.

Although it also hurts the two daughters, there is still a difference.

Both sisters are now of marriageable age.

When the two of them hadn't entered the noodle shop before, their fathers Zhang Ergou and Zhang Liu began to inquire about their in-laws.

Especially my sister Zhang Hongcao.

She's older, and most of the pressure is directed at her.

Later, when they entered the flour factory, the girls had money to get home, and the two were not in a hurry.

It's also good to want the girls to pay more money to the family to help the family and the youngest son.

So the two sisters were able to catch their breath.

At the beginning of the year, someone came to say goodbye to the two sisters.

But at that time, the snow jade golden lotus had not yet expanded, and the income of the people in the village was not much, and the relatives could only be regarded as average.

At that time, not to mention that the sisters themselves were not willing to marry, it was said that their parents did not look down on them.

This time, because the people in the village do not work, they also have an income of dozens of taels of silver every year, and the families who say they are close to are also up to the grade.

The matchmaker who went to Zhang Ergou's house this time was invited by a Xiucai family in the county seat.

The family's money is much worse than that of today's Zhang Ergou family, but there is a son who is already a showman.

The other party was willing to pay a dowry of twenty taels of silver and asked to marry Zhang Hongcao.

In the past, let's not talk about the other party's Xiucai family background, it was this dowry, which the people of Dayakouzi Village couldn't think of.

Therefore, Zhang Ergou almost couldn't wait to agree for Zhang Hongcao.

Zhang Hongcao only found out about this when he got back from work in the evening, and lost his temper on the spot.

Although Zhang Hongcao said that he had to pay 30 yuan a month, he kept half of it, and he had saved a lot of money for more than a year.

She had a big quarrel with her parents, packed up a few clothes with the quilt and moved out of the house, and lived in the dormitory provided by the flour mill.

Zhang Gaoting is not as hot-tempered as her sister.

She was hurt, and a sadness suddenly rose in her heart.

She sat where she was and told her father that if her father and mother would order her a family affair without asking her in the future, she said it didn't matter.

There is only one thing, once she gets married, then she will not do the work in this fat shop again!

Naturally, there will be no more money to pay home.

only honestly marries and teaches husbands and children at home.

Zhang Gaoting is very clear.

Her sister is just an ordinary peasant girl, who used to only tend to the fields, how could He De let a talented man come to ask for marriage?

The other party was willing to spend twenty taels of silver as a dowry to marry her sister, not because of her sister's future in the noodle shop.

If she didn't have the job of a flour mill, I am afraid that she would be abandoned immediately.

Zhang Ergou doesn't know the reason, but he can be the father-in-law of the talented man, which satisfies his vanity.

He was stabbed by the little girl's remarks, and his face was red and white, and he was hurt by his eldest daughter's actions, and felt that his daughter was unfilial.

But I am afraid that in the future, as my youngest daughter said, I will lose my job in the fat factory, and my daughter will be disliked by her in-laws.

At that time, he didn't want to pay compensation as a father?

I have to be a head shorter for the rest of my life, didn't I lose my wife and lose my soldiers?

But Zhang Ergou has already agreed, and in a few days, the other party will come to ask about his birthday, and he is ready to make up his mind.

Now if he wants to refuse this family business, wouldn't he offend Xiucaigong's family?

If this person is lifted in the future, then their family will definitely not have good fruit to eat.

Zhang Ergou thought about it all night that day, but he still planned to use his father's majesty to force Zhang Hongcao to agree to the family affairs, and the next day he went to the noodle shop to talk to Zhang Hongcao.

But I didn't expect to be told that Zhang Hongcao asked for leave and left the village!

When Zhang Hongcao came back in the afternoon, I learned that she went to find the Xiucai family and went to withdraw her relatives in person!

Wei Xinlan was so fierce before, she even beat her fiancé.

But the matter of retiring from relatives is still in front of her family.

This time, Zhang Hongcao himself went to the school in person and directly gained a strong reputation.

Within a few days, the nearby villages were laughing about it, and the news spread far and wide.

The attitude of the village towards this matter is two extremes.

Some felt that Zhang Hongcao was doing something wrong.

As a daughter, she should have listened to her parents, and it was too unfilial to directly contradict her father and move out of the house, and it was easy for the juniors to learn to bring bad habits. onclick="hui"
