Chapter 48 The landlord wanted to take her as a concubine, but she didn't agree

Who doesn't know the Chen family?

In the past, it was also a famous big family near and far.

It's a pity that as soon as Chen Yuan died, the family began to lose.

Deng Shun smiled and said, "Anyway, it's right that Chen Dashan is a good person." ”

"That's for sure, a good guy." Someone should be and.

"By the way, I heard that he has been in close contact with the Gu family in Zhenxi recently.

Maybe there's a way to make a fortune. Another said.

Deng Shun hurriedly asked, "Then who of you knows what the Gu family does?" ”

"Then who knows, we don't dare to pass through their doors."

"What for? It must be a powerful and rich person, who would dare to build such a big courtyard among the common people? Aren't you afraid of the court's blame? ”

"That's right."

Deng Shun didn't know what the Gu family was doing, but it was not good to delay here for too long, so he said:

"Then you guys continue to be busy, I can't delay."

"Go, go." And those who toiled were scattered, and everybody went to work.

Deng Shun arrived at Hehuan Yang, which also attracted everyone's attention.

Someone recognized him as Deng Shun, a buddy of the Qu family, and they all came over to greet him.

Deng Shun also got out of the car to talk to them, as before, first threw out the topic, and then guided them to talk.

The people of Hehuan Yang learned about the situation of Chen Dashan's family, which was similar to that of the village in front of them, and they did not get any new and useful information.

He didn't get any new news, and after talking to those people under the acacia tree for a while, he said that he had to send grain to Chen Dashan's house quickly, and took his leave.

After he left, Hehuan Yang's people were still talking.

Chen Dashan's family can afford to buy so much food.

They have worked hard for a year, and they don't have so much food at home.

Their family is really lucky.

Some people say that Chen Huan is blessing them, and some people say that it is the blessing brought by their little begonia.

Anyway, there's everything to say now.

Only the big cow lady didn't speak very pleasantly, saying that Chen Dashan's family's money was not clean, and that Mrs. Chen was unruly.

As soon as everyone heard her say bad things about Chen Dashan's family again, they all sweated for her.

It's really not a long memory, she said bad things about the Chen family before, and then she fell by the river and almost couldn't get up.

Later, it was also under this acacia tree, and he also spoke ill of the Chen family, and then he was dropped.

Today is still cheap, and I don't have a long memory.

In order to avoid being tainted with bad luck, they all got up and left.

The big cow girl scolded and scolded, saying that these people in the village are looking upwards with their eyes up, and they like to tie up and stick to the door and the like.

As a result, she walked to a flat place, accidentally stepped on her skirt, and fell into the mud again.

Those who were busy leaving heard that the big cow girl had fallen again, and their hearts fluttered in fright.

Looking back, the road is flat and flat, and there is not even a single weed, how did you fall?

It must be Chen Vain who is protecting the people in the family, and when he heard the big cow lady say bad things about Mrs. Chen, he was not happy.

It is said that Deng Shun sent grain to Chen Dashan's house, but Chen Dashan didn't expect him to send the grain over so quickly.

Didn't you say before that you would report it to their owner, and you would also report it to the government?

Did the government approve it so quickly?

He went to open the gate, but the gate was a little narrow, and the carriage could not enter.

Chen Dashan said: "I picked the door. ”

Deng Shun said: "You don't need to pick it, you can't get by if you pick it." ”

Chen Dashan went outside to take a look again, and sure enough, the carriage was wider.

They had to unload the food at the door.

This time I pulled thousands of catties of grain, and I had to pass the scales, otherwise how would I know how much?

Chen Dashan does not have a scale at home.

Fortunately, Deng Shun prepared it, he brought the scale, and said, "This is our scale, can you believe it or not?"

If you can't believe it, you can bring something over and adjust it.

If it doesn't work, you can borrow a scale yourself. ”

Chen Dashan said: "I can trust you, your owner is a good person. ”

Last time, he sent them a lot of rice.

Later, he gave them half a bag of cornmeal for nothing.

If he is really that kind of unkind and unrighteous person, where is he willing to give them things for nothing?

Deng Shun said: "Yes, our owner is very upright, he uses this scale to collect grain, and he also uses this stalk scale to sell grain.

You are right to think so, our owner is not a profiteer, and there are not many good people like our owner. ”

As he spoke, he asked people to bring the grain down from the ox cart, and weigh it in two cloth bags.

He asked Chen Dashan to look at the scales, and he took the abacus to plan the plate and count.

Although it is said to be 2,000 catties of rice, it is actually more than 2,000 catties.

Wheat too, said to be a thousand catties, but in fact more than a thousand catties were sent.

Several things are more than ten pounds.

Deng Shun said: "Our host said that the cloth bag should also account for the weight, so I folded some grain for you to prevent you from suffering." ”

Chen Dashan said: "Your host is really a good person. ”

Deng Shun said: "Six wen a pound of rice, a total of two thousand catties, counted as twelve taels, wheat five wen, one thousand catties, five taels."

In addition, corn and barley are a total of 2201 wen, and the 100 wen is counted, and a total of 19 taels will be given to me. ”

Mrs. Chen did the math herself, and she really didn't make a mistake, so she went into the house and got him nineteen taels.

After receiving the money, Deng Shun said with a smile: "Our host gave you ten soybeans, ten catties of peanuts, and two catties of small grinding sesame oil, you have collected it." ”

Chen Dashan was very grateful when he saw that the owner of the grain store had sent so many things.

Deng Shun's heart was in a mess.

He had to go back and report to the owner.

Chen Dashan's family is really rich now, and he didn't say anything about the silver last time, but he gave it again this time.

What kind of family are they, they can take out nineteen taels of silver at will.

Who would dare to say that after the nineteen taels of silver are taken out, there will be no more at home?

Where did they get all this money?

It's impossible for the Gu family to give them all the money, right?

Deng Shun asked people to drive the ox cart back quickly.

Qu Xinde has been wandering around the fields, watching the farmers trim the fields, and only returning home when it gets dark.

When he went home, Deng Shun was already waiting at home.

As soon as he saw that Deng Shun was back, he hurriedly called him in and asked, "How is the inquiry?" ”

Deng Shun said: "In my opinion, Chen Dashan's family is indeed rich. Nineteen taels of silver, Mrs. Chen took it out without blinking her eyes.

You haven't seen that Mrs. Chen, now that the living conditions are better, the face she eats is fleshy, white and tender, and she looks better than the little daughter-in-law in her twenties. ”

Qu Xinde frowned when he heard Deng Shun say this, and asked, "Then can you inquire why they have so much silver?" ”

"I've inquired about two villages.

I went all the way and started inquiring from the time I passed by Liujiawan.

They all said one thing, saying that the Chen family is now very close to the Gu family in Niuji Town.

It's not good to make a fortune from the Gu family. ”
