Chapter 166: Self-righteousness

Seeing Wang's anxious appearance, Jiang Tangtang's eyes were inexplicably a little hot, she took her hand and said, "Mother, do you think I let the fourth brother and the fifth brother take charge of the brick kiln because of favoritism?" ”

Wang looked at Jiang Tangtang in a daze and said, "Isn't it?" ”

Jiang Tangtang smiled: "Of course, there are part of the reasons, but more because they are more suitable." Mother, don't worry about it, don't worry, I have my own arrangements. ”

Wang asked a few more times, and after getting an affirmative answer, he was relieved, "Then you go back quickly and make it clear to your parents-in-law, don't let them misunderstand you." ”

Wang's worries are not unreasonable, and the atmosphere of the Lu family is very low at this time.

Old man Lu sat on the stone, chirping and smoking a cigarette gun.

He never had tobacco leaves, but he was really addicted to smoking, so he found leaves such as Qingming grass and wild fennel and put them in a smoking gun as tobacco.

Because it is made of weed leaves as tobacco leaves, it tastes strange and is very big smoke.

Su Shi was originally uncomfortable, and he was smoked, and he couldn't hold it back anymore, "I know that if you smoke this thing, you should quickly think of a way, and if you don't care about it, the benefits will be an adult in the future." ”

Lu Shiwang was relatively calm and persuaded: "Mother, the third brother and sister must have her reasons for doing this, don't say that." ”

Su Shi said unhappily: "What's the reason? ”

Lu Shiwang couldn't say it for a while, so he just said: "Anyway, I don't think the third brother and sister will treat our own family badly." ”

Luo Taohua guessed: "Do the third brothers and sisters want to arrange a better job?" When the third brother is out of the house, arrange a half-official position for Shi Wang and the second brother outside? ”

Lu Shiwang didn't want to be an official outside, he thought he didn't have the ability.

But after seeing that Su Shi listened to his daughter-in-law's words, his face was obviously much better, and he hurriedly persuaded again: "That's it, mother, don't you want to throw face at the third brother and sister, in case the third brother and sister have already made arrangements, wouldn't it make her chill if we do this?" Besides, even if our brothers don't take care of the lime kiln, our family is the most decent and best in the village. ”

Lu Shichang also persuaded: "That's right! If it weren't for the farm tools that the third brother and sister got back, where would our family be able to open up the wasteland so quickly? ”

Under the persuasion of the two sons in turn, Su's face turned from gloomy to clear, "You are right, this time I am confused." ”

By the time Jiang Tangtang came back, the Su family had already raised their smiling faces again, and Luo Taohua and Zhou Qiongniang were still as attentive to her as before.

Jiang Tangtang was stunned for a moment, but seeing that the atmosphere at home was fine, he didn't explain much, and only said the arrangements for his family.

"As you know, I took a look around the valley a few days ago, looking for land to grow medicinal herbs.

But then something happened, and I left the valley temporarily, so I didn't have time to tell you about it.

When I came back this time, I brought a lot of medicinal seeds, and I wanted to pick a time to plant them. ”

Su Shi was surprised when he heard this: "The matter of planting medicinal materials should be so anxious? ”

The rest of the Lu family also looked at Jiang Tangtang.

In their opinion, the most important thing is food, how can medicinal herbs be ranked in front of food?

And in his selfish heart, Su felt that the job of planting medicinal herbs was not as good as managing lime kilns and brick kilns.

In the past, these two things were the property of large families, and their crops could not be contaminated.

"Mother, think about it, what are you doing out there now?" If it was before, Jiang Tangtang would also rank growing food first.

But the food in her current space is enough to feed the people of the entire valley for ten years. With so much grain in stock, it won't take long to grow it.

Su Shi said tentatively: "Fighting? ”

Jiang Tangtang said: "Yes, in the war, in the future, in addition to the shortage of food outside, there will definitely be a shortage of medicinal materials."

In the special location of our valley, red bricks and lime are not easy to give out, and as far as the situation outside, these two things do not sell well.

Only medicinal materials are easy to transport, and the demand outside is also large. So I thought, in the next few years, we can make a living, and medicinal herbs are the first choice. ”

Listening to Jiang Tangtang's words, everyone in the Lu family had a thought in their hearts, and sure enough, Jiang Tangtang was still towards them.

On the surface, brick and lime kilns are among the best in the valley. But in the long run, the medicinal herb business is more promising.

After all, there are so many people in the valley, and they are all poor, and it is inconvenient to transport them out to sell, and they can't make much money by building brick kilns and lime kilns.

Su smiled like a flower. Luo Taohua and Zhou Qiongniang also thought that Jiang Tangtang was good, and the two of them diligently asked what they wanted to do with the medicinal herbs, and asked Jiang Tangtang what he wanted to eat.

In fact, Jiang Tangtang is really not facing which side, her main consideration is suitability.

She has observed the character and ability of the Jiang family's elder brothers, who have both fast brains and prestige, unlike the two elder brothers of the Lu family, who are a bit of a good person. It is more appropriate to manage brick kilns and lime kilns.

However, if the Lu family misunderstands, it can make the family less conflicted and make things go more smoothly, and it doesn't hurt for them to misunderstand.

She said what to do next.

The first is, of course, land reclamation. In addition, the land requirements for the cultivation of different medicinal herbs are different, and the planting methods are also different, which is different from farming, and she has to teach them.

Therefore, Jiang Tangtang decided that from today onwards, she will tell you some knowledge of planting medicinal herbs every day after dinner, and she will write down these contents and organize them into a book. It is not only convenient for the next reference, but also can teach Lu Chenyan to read and write by the way.

However, she didn't have time to sort out the books for the time being, so she had to go to the lime kiln first.

When Jiang Tangtang was busy, Guo Xuantong was very excited to find Cui's, "Mother, Brother Lu promised me and said that he was willing to help me contact my uncle and them." ”

Cui Shi was happy at first, but looking at his daughter's shy and timid appearance, he said angrily: "Are you not dead yet?" ”

Guo Xuantong said: "What does it matter if I die or not, the key is not to see what Brother Lu means." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Cui Shi was shocked and said, "Could it be that he has any ideas?" ”

"Mother, do you think, just Daddy used to spend money to go around? As for Brother Lu, of course, I don't look down on him, but I've heard a lot in the valley these days, and I heard that he hasn't even entered the academy.

It's just that he worshipped Orion, who knew how to do martial arts, as a master, and he may have a high level of understanding and skills. But when he goes to be an official like this, I don't know how difficult it is on weekdays.

He had not been in that trade before, and he did not know the way inside, but now that he knew it, he repented of it. ”

Guo Xuantong said what he was pondering, and said, "Mother, are you willing to stay in this valley for the rest of your life?" ”

Cui Shi looked at his daughter and persuaded: "I don't think Engong is like such a person, you better not think nonsense." ”
