"It's okay, as long as you do your best, I don't blame you. I'm sure you're not going to be perfunctory to me, are you? ”

"Well, the gentleman promises, and his heart is swinging. The villain is treacherous, and his heart is secret. I don't think I'm a villain, Yuanniang, you can rest assured. ”

"Yes, then it's decided. I'm going to convince. By the way, I need you to sign a deed with the old house, once the charcoal is successfully burned, after the sale, after deducting labor and transportation costs, it will be 30%. These three percent need to be held by you, but it is actually for Junzi. ”

When Xie Yanyi heard this, his heart burned for no reason.

Junzi has been suffering for so many years, and it seems that he is going to be bitter!

"Good!"

Li Yuan got a satisfactory answer, walked out of the study, and saw everyone looking at her.

"Milk, auntie, third aunt, let's eat. It's time to close the gates in a moment, and we'll talk about something while we're eating, and we'll have to rush back later. ”

The peasant family is not so particular about eating, and talking while eating, it seems lively.

Therefore, even though everyone was curious about what the two of them said inside, they didn't chase after it at this moment.

After the porridge, steamed buns, dumplings and pickles were served on the table, Li Yuan first took a sip of porridge, and then directly said the discussion between himself and Xie Yanzhi.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Mrs. Wang, who had just picked up the chopsticks, and slapped the chopsticks on the table.

"I don't agree with that!"

As she spoke, she glanced at the Ling clan and the Ma clan, then turned to look at Li Yuan and said.

"Yuanniang, we have long been separated, since we have not communicated for many years, and we have not helped you and Junzi anything, then there is no reason for you to exchange your reputation for a way to make money. To make money, we have hands and feet and fields, so you don't have to worry about it. ”

The method of burning charcoal is certainly exciting, but the old lady is unwilling to trade her granddaughter's reputation for it.

Originally, she and Li didn't sound so good, and then she lived under the same roof with a man in his twenties who was not married, and he might not be said to be like.

At the moment, she not only has to think about herself, but also for her two babies.

At this moment, Mrs. Wang refused for the sake of Li Yuan, but the Ling family and the Ma family in the big house were very moved.

It just so happened that the two of them were sitting together, and after hearing it, they didn't care what their mother-in-law thought, so they directly bowed their heads and discussed a few words.

After a while, I saw Ma Shi looking up at Mrs. Wang.

"Mother, I know what you're thinking. If you're worried about Yuanniang being talked about, then I'll come over to accompany her. It just so happens that the noodle stall is busy right now, and I can still take a hand. Sister-in-law, such a family matter will work hard for you in the future. ”

Ling followed her words and also looked at Mrs. Wang: "Mother, I also agree with the words of the third brother and sister. I don't have a lot of things at home now, and I can take care of them completely.

With her in the city to give Yuan Niang a hand, we are also relieved. In addition, if the charcoal is really burned and sold for money, then we will also share the Yuanniang's two percent of the silver, and we will not take advantage of her in vain. ”

Mrs. Wang knew that the two of them had their own ideas, and when she heard this, she was not very happy, but she didn't say anything.

Li Yuan heard her eldest aunt say that she would divide her into two, and then thought that Xie Yanzhi would hold thirty percent for Junzi when she turned around, and she didn't speak.

She knew that her grandmother would eventually agree, first, she was accompanied by her third aunt, and she had fewer worries about reputation.

The second is that the old mansion also has to save money, and her third cousin Li Zheng and nephew Li Qingwei are still studying.

Scholars are the most expensive, and the old mansion also wants to be able to provide another person with a meritorious name.

Not to mention exemption from food and labor, it is really a violation of the law, and before the meritorious name is removed, the punishment cannot be used.

Li Yuan didn't know how to do it in other places, but in Liuyun County, in addition to the two kinds of forced labor in Liuyun County, there was also a county called a guard soldier who was free to serve.

This change is done every two years in Liuyun County, and it is basically to repair official roads, rivers, bridges, and city walls.

Each time it lasted for one to two months, and with each visit, the servant had to shed a layer of skin.

In the memory of the original owner, as long as there is more than fifteen years old and more than one man, there is one person.

And the Liu family has always used money to plug the mouth of the officials, and they have to give one or two pieces of silver each time.

She didn't know the situation in the Li family's old mansion, but she was probably sent out to serve as labor.

She thought that this might be the reason why the countrymen don't like to divide their families, and when they need to serve, they only need to send one person.

If the big room and the third room are separated, then you have to go to two people.

Sure enough, after a long while, I listened to Mrs. Wang's relief.

"I know your caution, but it's also because Yuanniang herself agrees. If she didn't want to, I would never have agreed.

But you have to be grateful, no matter whether you can burn charcoal or not, you have to help Yuanniang in the county until the end of the year, and you can't take a penny from her. ”

Ma nodded again and again: "Okay, mother, don't worry, I will definitely help with the work, and I won't take the Yuan's money!" ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she felt a little more comfortable in her heart, and then she looked at Ling.

"Old family, at the end of the year, you have to buy a new set of clothes for Yuanniang and the two children.

Before Junzi came back, you had to help clean up their house from time to time, and you had to watch the vegetables grown by Canyatou.

If you burn charcoal and sell it for money, you have to catch up before the year, and we will pay off the remaining debts for Junzi first! ”

Both Ma and Ling feel that Li Jun does not owe much debt now, and whether they agree or not, the family will eventually use the money to pay Li Jun back.

In this case, it is better to sell it in front of Yuan Niang.

"Good!"

Because of Mrs. Wang's speech, this matter was settled.

When the group was about to finish eating, Mrs. Wang said directly to everyone.

"Today, I and the old family are here to accompany Yuanniang, Duozi, you take the car to take the girl and your third aunt back, and tomorrow call Ruizi and Zhengzi to come over first to learn Pankang.

The third family, you pack up and come with you early tomorrow morning. Can girl, the things in Yuanniang's house, you look at it and help clean it up, and you will live here from tomorrow. ”

And they all had no disagreement, for the hour was not early, and they were all anxious to go out before the gate was closed, and they got up one after another, and went away.

The lively Xie Mansion was suddenly empty.

When Wang Can returned to Lijiaao, Cai Wei and Qingsha had not yet slept, and when they saw that she was the only one, they were a little disappointed in their eyes.

"Aunt Can, where is my mother?"

"Sister Yuan lives in the county tonight, and I'm here to pack up my things and take you into the city tomorrow. Cai Wei, if Qingsha is sleepy, she will sleep first, and Aunt Can will have to pack up your things. ”

As soon as Cai Wei heard that she was going to enter the city and had to pack her things, she took the initiative to take the cloth bag.

While helping to clean up herself, her mother, and her sister's clothes, she asked, "Aunt Can, where will we live after entering the city?" ”

"You Uncle Xie's family! Now we are on the kang, and when the time comes, we will all live in the same room as now, on a kang. ”

"Uncle Xie's family? It's nice that he has a lot of books at home. Aunt Can, do you think I can let Uncle Xie teach my sister and me to read and write? ”

"It should be possible, you can ask when the time comes."
