There are about forty or fifty households in the village, and each household has at least one or two children under the age of 10.

Wen Jingyan raised his eyes and looked around, and suddenly a thought sprouted in his heart.

It is better to set up a medical center here so that the children in the village can also learn some medical skills.

In this way, you can often contact the Jiang family, and it will be convenient to act in the future.

These days, no matter how he knocked on the side, he even directly asked if there was any ancestral secret medicine in their family, but Jiang Laohan denied it, and laughed and said that his ancestor was an old farmer, how could there be any secret medicine.

I also secretly observed the expressions and behaviors of the Jiang family, and they looked calm, as if there was really no secret.

If he hadn't seen the liquid medicine on the strands of hair with his own eyes and seen the miraculous effects of the liquid medicine, he really thought that his junior brother had misdiagnosed Jiang Erlang's condition.

As for Jiang Sanlang, he has been living here for three days, but he only has one sentence to him.

It's not that Jiang Saburo ignores people, but that the young man is too busy and often doesn't see anyone all day.

Seeing that he couldn't continue to delay here, Wen Jingyan was anxious.

"Hengchuan, how about you say to set up a medical hall here?" Wen Jingyan turned his head and asked his grandson.

Wen Hengchuan was puzzled: "Why did my grandfather set up a medical hall here?" We're quite far from here, and it's not convenient to come and go. ”

Wen Jingyan sighed, "Grandfather knows that it is inconvenient, but you also know the situation in the family, if that person is not good, our family will definitely be implicated."

I thought it would be better to send one or two of the children in the family over and let them establish roots here, which can also be regarded as a backup hand for the family. On the other side of the capital, it will not be peaceful after all. ”

Wen Hengchuan was silent.

My grandfather was right, if that person could not be cured, his family would probably be unlucky.

"It's all up to my grandfather." Wen Hengchuan said calmly: "It's just that you need to think twice about running a school here." ”

Not only do you have to settle here, but you also have to have a good relationship with the local family.

I and my grandfather will definitely not teach here, so I can only choose one or two from the children of the family.

Wen Jingyan nodded, "Since we have run a school, we must negotiate the rules with the patriarch of the Chen clan, because the Chen clan also has a family study, and we must not conflict with them."

It's better to set up a female medical hall and teach the female dolls here to learn medical skills, maybe let Wen's female medicine be passed on. ”

Although the Daqian Dynasty said that the people were open, there were very few women studying medicine.

Because women's medical studies are different from men's, most of them see women exclusively, and most of them see gynecological diseases, including maternity and so on.

Wealthy women will not learn the art of pregnancy and obstetrics, because the doctor will inevitably look at the patient's body, and it will be regarded as unclean and improper, and it will be very difficult to discuss relatives in the future.

Those who are willing to learn are all women who have given birth, but such halfway healers will not achieve much.

Wen Hengchuan smiled: "Indeed, no matter who else is, only the child named Yingbao is a talent." ”

On the second day, Wen Jingyan's ancestors and grandsons said goodbye and left.

Jiang Laohan sent people to the carriage, waved his hand, and sincerely asked them to come back next time, so that he could send some golden ears for the old brother to taste.

At the same time, Jiang Saburo breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally gone.

The grandfather and grandson talked to him, and they didn't leave Erlang's recovery in three sentences, and they also asked about the secret medicine of the folk home remedies, which scared him to avoid the grandfather and grandson for the past few days.

Alas, don't come back next time.

"Chunniang, I'm going to build a brick house in Nanshan."

Jiang Saburo said while eating: "In the past few days, I have gone to the brick kiln to order the bricks and tiles of three rooms, and it is estimated that it will be complete after the autumn, and I will be able to hire someone to build a house at that time." ”

"Really?" Chun Niang was very happy.

He already had three hundred taels of silver, and it didn't take him a hundred taels to build three brick houses.

With the rest of the silver, you can buy some good wood, ask someone to come and make a few sets of furniture, build a large yard, and build a few bamboo sheds.

"The eldest brother and the second brother are also going to build it with us, and our three brothers will build the same big house and the same yard." Jiang Sanlang said happily: "I also bought 20 acres of land from a few villagers, and the bamboo shed will be built there in the future. ”

"You also bought land?" Chunniang was surprised: "Then shouldn't our family be promoted in the future?" ”

If she is promoted, her family's taxes will increase accordingly.

For example, her family is now a fourth-class lower household, and her tax payment is much less than that of Chen Cunzheng's first-class upper household.

Jiang Sanlang: "If you don't buy land, you will be upgraded, as long as we build a house, Sun Lizheng will come over to check and register next year." ”

There are many types of taxes paid by the imperial court, and even how many chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, mules, horses, houses, and furniture and farm tools in the homes of the common people must be registered one by one, and then divided into tax levels, divided into first to fifth classes.

The first to third class are the upper households, and the tax paid is 10% more than that of the lower households of the fourth and fifth classes.

Therefore, many farmers do not know how to build houses unless necessary, and they do not even know how to build yards, at most they use bamboo fences to enclose them.

In order to be rated as a fourth-class or fifth-class household, many wealthy gentry even spent money on officials, just to pay less taxes every year.

In this way, the unlucky ones are ordinary people like Jiang Saburo.

Chun Niang began to worry again. "If this is raised, we will pay taxes and go up, what if there is no gold ear over there?"

"If we don't accept it, we'll sell it somewhere else." Jiang Saburo is not afraid at all. "Anyway, it doesn't cost much to grow golden fungus, as long as it can be sold, we will make money."

He had never done business before, and he was always worried about this and that, but now he has silver in his hand, and his heart is full of energy, and his back is straight when he walks outside.

Chun Niang thought about it carefully, felt that what her husband said was reasonable, and relaxed a little.

"The courtyard wall is higher, and the Nanshan side is secluded, and it is not safe after all."

"That's nature."

Jiang Saburo said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if it is built, I won't live there for the time being, and when it starts spring next year, let's move in with the eldest brother and second brother." ”

The cloudy sky is full of summer colors, and the leaves are moving in autumn.

It's autumn in the blink of an eye.

After the autumn harvest was over, just after the winter wheat was planted, the three brothers of the Jiang family began to build a house in Nanshan, so that the whole village went to help.

If nothing else, just provide the Jiang family with a meal of rice at lunch, plus fragrant pork stew.

For a time, Nanshan was very lively.

Those who build the courtyard wall, cut and transport bamboo, help make fires and make meals, pick up stones to pad the foundation, and go to farther places to dig stone slabs, come and go, in an endless stream.

Ying Bao stayed at home with his two younger brothers and did not go to Nanshan, but he listened to A-Niang come back every day to tell him about the progress of his house.

Because it was built by three brothers and in a row, the scale of the house looks extraordinarily spectacular.

More than a month later, the house in Nanshan was finally completed, and after a few days, the courtyard walls were built, and the doors and windows were installed.

However, it is not yet possible to occupy people, because the new house must wait for the moisture to dissipate before moving in.

At this time, the last batch of golden fungus was also ripe, and Jiang Saburo and his wife hurriedly harvested it and opened the furnace to dry.

was so busy that he forgot the first birthday of his two sons.

"Let's just go down to the bowl of longevity noodles, what is the birthday of the stinky boy."

Jiang Saburo didn't care and said, "Their father never had a birthday." ”

Chunniang glared at him with disgust, but she didn't say anything, she really went to cook a few bowls of noodles, and lay two poached eggs on the noodles, and the family ate a round belly.
