Chapter 44: The Village Chief's Careful Thoughts
Shopkeeper Mei also laughed, "I'm so polite to me, and the rest of this one or two is a light red envelope from me personally." ”
Yi Mingxue knew that this was her means to win people's hearts, but she didn't plan to let her second sister work for others for a long time.
So the refusal was also very simple, "With such a big red envelope, my second sister is still young, so I really can't afford it." What I value more than money is her name, has it been passed down from clothes to clothes? ”
"That's nature!" Boss Mei took back the one or two pieces of silver with some disappointment, "I promised your sisters, then it will definitely be done." ”
Yi Mingxue took her look in her eyes.
She had no intention of having a bad relationship with Boss Mei, so she took the initiative to take another step and said with a smile,
"The red envelope is exempt, it's not good to ask Boss Mei to break the fee. But I really have one thing, I want to ask Boss Mei for help. ”
When Shopkeeper Mei heard this, his eyes lit up.
It's better to owe favors than to owe money!
"What's the matter? Big sister, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
"Boss Mei has been in business for so many years and has seen many people with a wide range of connections, can you know the teacher in our town? I wanted to start spring, so I sent a few big ones in my family to the school to study. ”
Shopkeeper Mei was quite surprised, after all, it was a famine year.
Not to mention the countrymen, even some middle-class wealthy families in the town may not be able to have this awareness.
Yi Mingxue actually wants to send her younger siblings to study!
And it's not just the boy, listening to her tone, even the two younger sisters have to be sent together.
She couldn't help but look at Yi Mingxue a little more in her heart.
"Nature is known, but ......"
"But what's wrong?" Yi Mingxue hurriedly asked.
"However, Master Nazeng is very old, and I heard that he accepted a total of three new disciples last year. And all of them are children of squires and wealthy families. ”
Yi Mingxue understood.
Meaning, money alone is not enough.
It is estimated that it will take some effort to get this great-master.
"However, I am quite familiar with the brother-in-law of Zeng's wife and wife, so I can repair a book for you to introduce to Zeng's husband, as for the ...... next to it."
Yi Mingxue hurriedly thanked, "That's enough!" As long as you can see Master Zeng, there must be a way. ”
Boss Mei got up and went to write a letter of introduction for her.
At this time, the unloading guys outside were also busy.
They also brought a large bucket of water to Dongdong.
Boss Mei originally wanted to stay with Yi Mingxue for lunch, but Yi Mingxue had been out for two days and one night.
She didn't worry about the diced radishes at home, and she just wanted to go home as soon as possible at the moment.
Before leaving, the shopkeeper Mei threw an olive branch to her.
"That's right, girl! I see that you now have a car and a horse, how many trips would you like to make to the county seat? I'll have a shipment in 10 days, and I haven't found anyone to transport it yet. ”
Yi Mingxue was overjoyed in her heart, "That's what I mean, Sister Mei really helped me a lot today!" ”
Boss Mei smiled, "Since you call me sister, then my sister should help my sister." ”
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then said goodbye to each other.
After saying goodbye to Boss Mei, Yi Mingxue didn't stay in Fengyun Town for long.
She didn't even eat lunch, and only nibbled on a few bites of shortbread on the way to deal with things.
Rush back directly.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I heard a loud noise.
Yi Mingxue hurriedly grabbed the horse's belly and hurried home.
Soon, someone noticed her sighting.
Shouting loudly, "It's back!" Yi Daya is back! ”
Yi Mingxue looked nervous, "What's the matter, this is?" ”
When the man saw her, he said happily as if he had seen something fragrant.
"Look, in the melon field of Xishan, the melons you planted have already blossomed!"
"What?"
Yi Mingxue was stunned.
It's only been a few days, how can the vines bloom?
And it's winter, a cold and windy winter.
Yi Mingxue had a dark face and came to the center of the village where everyone gathered.
The diced radishes in her family are all there, and even the fifth child was gently recited by Yi.
When the village chief saw her, his hands were shaking with excitement.
"Big girl! Tell the big guys, how did you grow this melon? ”
Yi Mingxue didn't know how to speak.
She can't just say that those melon seedlings sucked her two drops of spiritual power, right?!
Looking at everyone's eager eyes, she had to bite the bullet and say, "I used some skills, but the vines bloom so quickly in winter, most of them are just ...... Luck? ”
The villagers didn't believe it at all.
There were even dissatisfied voices, "Big girl, are you reluctant to tell us the secret?" ”
"That's it! Although you planted melons, the West Mountains are all big guys! In the future, everyone will have a share in the harvest in this melon field. ”
In the crowd, I don't know who said this in a weird way.
Yi Mingxue immediately lowered her face and looked at the person who spoke.
"I rented this mountain from the village chief, the rent has already been paid, and the deed is also in my hands! If you want to know how to plant, just be kind to me! ”
"I'm ......" the man was red-faced, and soon fell silent.
In the crowd, most of them didn't know that Yi Mingxue had rented Xishan.
At first, when I saw her reclaiming the barren mountains, I only said that she was tossing around blindly, and she didn't care about the harvest at all.
But the current situation is different, what does it mean that the melon seedlings are flowering in such a fast time?
Explain that this wasteland, it can produce crops!
This can be in the real interest of every household.
Many families in the village are hungry, how can such a good thing be let go.
This is the main reason why everyone is gathered together today.
When the village chief saw Yi Mingxue say the matter of renting the mountain in public, he immediately came out to play a round.
"Don't worry, everyone, the big girl has just come back, let's let her drink saliva and take a breath first."
Then he pulled Yi Mingxue aside and whispered, "You girl, why are you still anxious to say a few words." I haven't had time to talk to the big guys about renting Xishan. ”
Yi Mingxue sneered in her heart when she heard this.
This old thing, I'm afraid he made up his mind to steal this rent.
It's just that I didn't expect Yi Mingxue to really grow something.
Now that the whole village knows about it, he has to make up for it, and he hasn't had time to tell everyone what he said.
She was sorry for keeping an eye on her and asked him to issue a deed.
After knowing the whole story, Yi Mingxue was really not in a hurry.
She took a few diced turnips by the hand, turned and walked towards her house.
As she walked, she said, "The village chief is right, I have been running outside for two days and one night in a row, and I am really tired and hungry. ”
"Everyone let me take a breath first, and by the way, let the village chief explain to everyone, I spent a tael of silver to rent the entire West Mountain for a year."
"What?"
At this moment, the crowd was completely exploded.
A tael of silver?
Such a big matter, the old slippery head of the village chief didn't even tell the big guys!
