Chapter 45: Rumors Begin

The scene is a little weird, and a little funny.

But the Rong family had taken a nap with the tiger anyway, and after a brief panic, they quickly calmed down.

Boss Rong yawned, asked his wife and children to go back to sleep, and said, "It's not a big deal, you take the children to rest first, and I will discuss something with the second and third brothers." ”

Discuss how to assign work to these big stupid bears.

The eldest daughter-in-law took the children back to the house, and for safety reasons, the door was locked.

slept in Mrs. Rong's arms, commanding the group of blind bears.

The blind bear lined up one by one into the courtyard of the Rong family, and Mrs. Rong saw that they were snorting with their tongues hanging on their mouths, and she was still a little panicked, so she went to bring out the bath water that she was sleeping in.

This bath water was originally reserved for watering the vegetable garden tomorrow morning, so it's cheaper!

You have to be good after drinking!

Boss Rong lit the oil lamp in the hall, glanced at the bears who were obediently drinking the bath water, and asked the second child: "Is there a reply from the stone?" Do they do the work of preparing the land? ”

Rong Lao Er shook his head: "The stone said that the men in the village who did not go to the water field have all gone to the county town to find work, and the work of preparing the land is not much and does not last long, and many people are unwilling to come back." ”

Boss Rong heard this, and immediately made a decision: "Then it doesn't cost money to hire someone, let's do it ourselves!" First turned over the fifty acres of land where my brothers and sisters planted medicinal herbs in the deep mountains, and then renovated the small hills in the back mountains, I didn't want the villagers to see the bears working for the family, so we would secretly do it at night! Second brother, you go to the town tomorrow to rent a plow, our third brother plus those bears, how can two months be enough! ”

Rong Laosan thought he could do it, but he wasn't sure if the blind bears could do it, so he frowned and asked, "Do they really know how to plow the land?" ”

Sleep didn't accept his uncle's questioning, and yelled at him "Ahhhh

The fourth daughter-in-law was made to laugh by the little girl, and explained: "Bears move slowly when they are not aggressive, and they are powerful, so they are best used to cultivate the land, as long as you are not afraid." ”

This kind of thing that only requires courage to save effort and money, the Rong brothers only thought about it for a while, and then accepted it.

On the second day, Rong Lao Er went to the town to rent three sets of plows, and then he slept on the mountain as an overseer to supervise the work of the blind bears.

There is sleep and sleep, and the work of the blind bear is called a fast and good!

The land of the Rong family, whether it is planting medicinal herbs or ginseng, is interplanted under the forest, shallow cultivation is OK, a bear can easily plough ten acres of land in a day, the medicinal herb land is used for half a day, and the ginseng field is used for ten nights.

After turning over the ground, the Rong family let the blind bear rest, and the whole family went into battle to clean up shrubs, weeds, roots, and rubble.

In less than a month, the whole mountain forest was completely renewed!

By the time the villagers noticed, the Rong family's land had already been turned over for the second time!

On this day, the three brothers of the Rong family were making up for sleep at home during the day, preparing to carry out the third round of fine cultivation of the ginseng field at night, Mrs. Rong fell asleep with her arms in her arms, sat in the yard and watched her daughters-in-law clean persimmons, warblers and apricots, and prepare to make wild fruit jam, and Sister-in-law Chen came to the door and brought a basket of wild grapes.

Sleepy can barely sit up now, leaning on her grandmother's arms and waving sweetly to Sister-in-law Chen.

Sister-in-law Chen touched the sleeping little brain, and said with a smile: "For more than a month, I haven't seen anyone from my sister's family in the village, what are they busy with?" ”

Mrs. Rong grabbed a ripe wild warbler peach and stuffed it to Sister-in-law Chen, and said, "Isn't this in the whole mountain, and it won't take a break for a month!" What's the matter with my sister-in-law? ”

Sister-in-law Chen was not polite, pointed to a basket of wild grapes she brought, and said: "I, I was entrusted by the village chief, my sister has been in Baizhang Village for a few months, and she has not had much contact with the people in the village. ”

Mrs. Rong took a sip of her: "What can I look down on, I don't like to hear this, what are you talking about!" ”

Sister-in-law Chen smiled embarrassedly, and then she made her intentions clear.

"It's not in July, the wild grapes in the mountains are ripe, in previous years, these things, that is, picked back to relieve the hunger of the baby at home, after all, the wild grapes are more sweet and sour, but this year I don't know what's going on, most of the wild grapes all over the mountains are actually sweet, and the people in the village picked them and sold them in the town, and they have been sold for almost half a month.

"But seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the grapes can no longer be put down and are not easy to sell, the people in the village pickled the jam and then took it to the town to sell, the result is either the price is low or can not be sold, now every family in the village has pickled dozens of jars, and they are reluctant to eat at home and are afraid of spoilage, worrying!"

Mrs. Rong understood, and she also understood.

This is to ask the family to help find a market.

"Sister Rong, the village chief knows that you know Steward Li of the town's family, so he wants to ask me to ask, can you help collect the jam in the village?"

Mrs. Rong didn't agree, but she didn't refuse either, she thought about it and said: "In this way, it just so happens that I will take my grandson to the town academy to apprentice in two days, so I will stop by and ask, whether this can be done depends on whether people are willing or not, and second, it depends on whether things are good or bad." ”

Sister-in-law Chen knew this and hurriedly said, "That's done!" I'll talk to the village chief in a moment! Big girl, thank you so much! ”

Mrs. Rong also reciprocated, and she wants to take root here in the future, and she can help if she is not too busy.

After Sister-in-law Chen said this, she hesitated for a while before she spoke again: "Sister, there is something that your family doesn't know yet, and I don't know if I should tell you or not." ”

As soon as Mrs. Rong heard this, she knew that it was definitely not a good thing, and frowned and said, "You mentioned it, don't say that I don't panic in my heart!" ”

Sister-in-law Chen glanced at the neat mountain behind her, and lowered her voice: "That's the case...... After the 100-day banquet, I don't know who spread some gossip about your family, saying that your family is holding a big banquet and buying hundreds of acres of mountainous land, I'm afraid that there is an improper way to make money, otherwise why don't you have money and don't live in the city and town, you have to live in such a bad place in Baizhang Village. ”

Mrs. Rong: "......"

Sleep: "......"

"Sister, don't worry, our village people must not believe this! Your sons and daughters-in-law are all capable, and everyone sees it, and if you have money, you must earn it yourself, so no one spreads these nonsense in the village, but it ...... outside."

The fourth daughter-in-law: "Meng Hongmei passed it out." ”

Sister-in-law Chen choked: "...... I don't know about this, since the 100-day feast, her mother and daughter have not been in the village for a long time. ”

Mrs. Rong hugged her and snorted coldly: "If you pass it on, it won't hurt my family's money." ”

Sister-in-law Chen: "...... Isn't the girl angry? ”

Mrs. Rong's heart was very relieved: "What's so angry, saying that my family will have more money, I'm still happy!" ”

Sleeping in his grandmother's arms, he crossed Erlang's legs and thought with his little hands, wouldn't it really be Meng Hongmei's mother and daughter?

No one else seems to be so hostile to her family except them......
