Chapter 54: The Division of Land (2)
These people turned their faces like flipping books, and their speech was quite interesting, and Liu Paner listened to it with relish.
Li Xiaobao was arrogant, rolled his eyes, and muttered in a low voice, "One is more hypocritical than the other, and the kung fu of opening your eyes and telling nonsense is really powerful." ”
Li Nan scratched his head, not knowing why, "Brother, what do you mean?" Are they not diligent? ”
"Remember, what these people say is the opposite of what they think." Li Xiaobao is precocious, and he can see through it at a glance, "Don't believe what they say, see what they do!" ”
Listening to the conversation between the two children, Liu Paner couldn't cry or laugh, but Li Xiaobao was right.
Of course, Village Chief Li also heard the "hypocrisy" of the people in the village, so he also showed a smirk, and said with a smile: "Since everyone is unwilling to divide the land, then it will not be divided." It was I who lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and let everyone be wronged. ”
Originally, those who were able to speak vigorously were dumbfounded when they heard Village Chief Li say this.
In fact, they are just polite, and they still want to divide the land in their hearts.
Li Er was stunned and laughed, regretting his death, and the village chief said that if the land is divided, then divide it.
There are a total of thirteen people in his family, eight adults and five children, and a total of nearly 20 acres of land! Take good care of the crops, and after four months, you will be able to harvest a lot of grain.
It's okay to be well fed and clothed.
After all, after two years of reclamation, you don't have to pay taxes, all of them are your own, and you can still have a lot of surplus if you can't finish eating.
Li Er was stunned and anxious, and hurriedly smiled: "Village Chief, in fact, you are right, after dividing the fields, everyone will go to work in their own fields, you don't have to organize every day, you can also be a little easier." Isn't it, big guy? ”
This time, without Village Chief Li speaking, many people replied in unison: "Yes!" ”
Village Chief Li sneered twice in his heart, it was good to divide it, he did save trouble, "That's okay, since everyone is willing to divide the land, then I will divide it." There are six households in our village that do not have male laborers, and it is very difficult to climb up and down the mountain to harvest crops, so I make the decision and give them the land under the terraces. ”
There is no shortage of stingy people in the village, but at this time, Village Chief Li was unhappy, they didn't dare to touch the village chief's moldy head, and almost said in unison, "No opinion!" ”
"Since you have no opinion, let's go and measure the land now." Village Chief Li nodded and looked at Liu Pan'er, "Yuanqing's family, you count how many places each family has." ”
"Yes, Uncle Village, don't forget the remaining seven acres of land." Liu Paner couldn't help but remind that some people were unwilling to save the land.
"You count first, I haven't forgotten." Village Chief Li nodded, "The adults are divided into one person and one acre and eight points of land, and the children are divided into nine points of land, and after everyone is divided into land, there are still seven acres of land left." These lands have great uses, so they are not divided.
The grain harvested from these seven acres of land was used to build a school, buy pen, ink, paper and inkstone for the children, and let the children learn literacy and arithmetic with the Yuan Qing family. After all, the Yuan Qing family doesn't charge money to teach their children, but they can't let the family pay back the money for pen, ink, paper and inkstone. ”
"Village chief, our family doesn't have any children now, isn't it a great loss?" Aunt Li, who was particularly stingy, hurriedly said that her son had not yet married, and now that he had just settled down, he would have to wait two or three years if he wanted to say goodbye, and his grandson was gone.
Village Chief Li didn't retort angrily, he was quite annoyed, "Your son has no children now, won't your son have children in the future?" If your son becomes his own son in the future, should the child go to school?
If you don't say you don't go now, okay, in front of the big guys, let's write down the notes, don't cry and shout at that time, you want to come to school, it's unfair to other people's families. ”
Fourth Aunt Li was blushing when Village Chief Li said it, and she immediately shrank her head and stopped talking.
Originally, I thought that people who did not have school-age children to go to school suffered a loss, but everyone quickly understood that not having it now does not mean that it will not be in the future.
The new Lijia Village is surrounded by barren mountains and wasteland, more than 80 miles to the county seat, and more than 40 miles to the nearest town. A private school in the village may be the only way for children to read and write.
Besides, I've already been allocated a lot of fields, and I don't care about that little bit.
Li Dageng hurriedly said: "Village chief, seven acres of land is not much, I agree, it is good to run a clan school, learn literacy and arithmetic." ”
Li Dashan also nodded, "It's not okay to be blind, I go to the county seat, I don't know the signboard, the literacy of the Yuan Qing family can be understood wherever I go." It's better to be literate, I'm in favor. ”
Everyone agreed, and it was settled.
In addition, Village Chief Li also agreed with everyone that the seven-acre field will be managed by the families of the children studying in the school. When the clan learns more fields, they will find someone to take care of it.
Liu Pan'er quickly calculated, wrote the number of fields each family got on the wooden board, and then Village Chief Li took a few more prestigious people in the village and began to measure the land.
Liu Paner and Liu decided that the fields of the two families would be together and that they would be easy to take care of in the future.
Liu Paner, Li Dabao, Li Rong, Liu and her two daughters, one person one acre and eight acres, ten acres and six points of land; Li Nan and Li Xiaobao are two children, one acre and eight points of land.
In total, twelve acres and six points of land.
Liu Paner and Liu are both women, and they are all children below, so Village Chief Li divides their fields in the terraced fields below.
After dividing his own land, Liu Paner did not follow Village Chief Li's group to help divide the land together.
She's going to be busy making money!
Liu went around his field, and when he was eating, he said to Liu Paner: "Third brother and sister, the rice in the field has sprouted and is growing well. Ali Afang and Ah Rong watched Ah Nan and Xiaobao together in the bamboo shed. I'm going to go to the mountains and maybe catch pheasants and prey. ”
Liu Pan'er smiled, "Sister-in-law, just pay attention to your own safety, bring a boning knife, and don't go too far." I'll go to the river beach a little farther away. If that mud can be used to make bricks, I'm going to make a brick kiln and a tile kiln and try it. ”
"Okay, then let's go our separate ways." Liu Shi responded, his eyebrows opened and smiled, "The rice at home is gone, we can eat vegetable dumplings, but Anan and Xiaobao are still young, let's see if we can catch rabbits and pheasants and get some meat to eat." ”
It's good to live in partnership with the third brother and sister, the two of them have a lot of discussion, and it's more comfortable than living with their former husbands.
The two daughters also became cheerful and lively under the influence of the third siblings.
Li Dabao's eyes lit up and he begged, "Auntie, I want to go too." ”
Liu smiled, but didn't respond, "I have to ask your mother." ”
Li Dabao looked at Liu Pan'er with anticipation in his eyes, "Mother, will you let me go hunting with my aunt and uncle?" ”
The boy liked this, and when he heard about hunting, he immediately became energetic.
Liu Paner smiled and asked, "Do you really want to go?" ”
Li Dabao nodded, "I want to go, I especially want to go, mother, you just let me go." ”
"Okay, you can go, but when you get to the mountains and forests, you have to listen to your aunt." Liu Paner explained, "Even if you don't hit the prey, it doesn't matter!" ”
"Got it, mother, I know the severity." Li Dabao responded, he was very happy, and he could finally go to play.
