Knowing that the name of the wine had been settled, Roche was relieved, otherwise he would have been hanging over this matter for a long time.

Old Man Wen was also afraid for a while, this dead girl was so bold that she dared to beat the emperor's idea, if this was not done well, their old Wen family would be cut off.

Qiu Zhi laughed when he heard his words: "Uncle, no, not yet, Your Majesty is benevolent and loves the people, and will never deal with the Wen family because of this matter, since the prince said that the matter has been completed, His Majesty also likes this wine, if Uncle is worried that His Majesty will annoy Yaoyao, let Yaoyao have more good wine to send to the palace in the future." ”

A trivial matter, the emperor will not take it to heart, not to mention that this kind of name is often given, besides, what Wen Xiuyi has done now is the emperor's top priority, and it is too late for him to reward the Wen family at this time, so how can he deal with the Wen family.

This matter was calmed down by Qiu Zhi with a few words, and when he turned his head, the old man forgot about it.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the work in the workshop and the field was about to stop, and Luo prepared the broken silver early in the morning, ready to pay the wages to the people in his workshop, and then take a good inventory of the accounts for this period of time, and distribute dividends to his sister.

Li and Cai also got up early in the morning, and the two of them also dragged Luo to exchange some broken silver for them by the way, and they had to pay the people in the duck shed for a while, and this year is over.

At first, there was only Tie Niu Niang alone in the duck shed to give them a hand, but then there were more and more ducks in the duck shed, and there were often things in the house that the two of them had to work, so they simply invited four more people, in addition to them, there are now a total of five people in the duck shed.

In addition to the salary and the red envelopes for the New Year, Luo also gave the workers in the workshop a three-day vacation, and came back on the third day of the Lunar New Year to start working, but the Li family couldn't do it here, and they had to starve if there was no one for a day, so the concubines could only pay everyone more wages and compensate for it.

Everyone who worked in the Wen family received a lot of wages this year, and they went home with a smile on their faces.

Not only is there more food this year, but it is also more than in previous years, and the entire Gutong Village has a festive flavor from the inside out.

There was the bold one, so he took the red paper and ran to Wen's house early, wanting to ask Wen Xiucai to write a couplet.

Wen Xiuyi was not stupid this year, and pointed to his sons and nephews: "My hand, I've been holding a hoe for a long time, and the handwriting is not good-looking. ”

After speaking, he moved a bench and sat halfway to watch the play.

Sure enough, the people in the village found a few children of the Wen family, and asked them to move the table and write couplets.

A few tables are placed at the gate of the Wen family, and they can be seen coming and going, Datou, Wen Jin, Wen Fa, Jin Xiuyi, and Xie Anyi are standing side by side behind the table, and in front of the table are the villagers queuing.

Several people were immersed in writing, and Wen Xiuyi was sitting in a rocking chair next to him.

"You're idle."

Qiu Zhi sat down next to him, still holding a purple sand teapot in his hand, the New Year's gift given by Wen Yao was delicate and small, the size was just right in his hand, it was convenient to take it with him wherever he went, and it was no worse than Lao Jin's pair of cups.

Wen Xiu shook it happily: "This is called learning to achieve something, and make the best use of it." ”

Qiu Zhidu smiled, how do these two words be used?

After a while, Qiu Zhicai said quietly: "After the beginning of the new year, are you sure?" ”

Wen Xiuyi turned his head and glanced at him, he knew what Qiu Zhi was talking about.

"Seventy percent." Wen Xiuyi originally wanted to say that there was no problem, but the times are different, and he can't be too full of words.

Sure enough, Qiu Zhi's face was happy, and it was enough to be seventy percent sure.

"If you can really improve the yield of rice, Your Majesty will definitely reward you." In the future, the monstrous wealth will surely come like a tide.

Wen Xiuyi shook the rocking chair and said: "It doesn't matter if you are rewarded or not, I actually want to do something, but if you want to say that it is impossible to do a little fame and fortune, people, you have to be realistic, what I want is to be able to make a note in front of His Majesty, so that even if someone wants to make trouble in the future, they have to weigh and weigh the proportions." ”

Qiu Zhi unconsciously thought of Meng De.

"This person will be retribution, many people in the DPRK and China are dissatisfied with your model of reforming the production team, including him, in addition, if you want to increase rice production, most of the officials come out to obstruct it, saying that you are ......" Qiu Zhi wanted to speak and stopped.

Wen Xiuyi smiled: "What are you talking about me?" Saying that I used to be addicted to gambling, that I didn't distinguish between grains and grains, that I was just a talented person with a bad pen, and that I dared to say that I wanted to increase rice production, and that I was just fooling Your Majesty, that I was trying to enrich my own pocket from His Majesty's defrauded money, right? ”

Qiu Zhi: "......" has a clear self-understanding.

Wen Xiuyi didn't have to think about it, who could spread this, after all, he had a few acquaintances in the capital, Li Fu couldn't say bad things about him, that was buddy, then there were only Meng De and Liu, and there were only these two people who knew his past.

So, not letting these two stinky fish and rotten shrimp get rid of the big head is the most correct thing he has done in his life.

Wen Xiuyi continued: "I know that there is a reason why we didn't ask for money when we wrote excerpts several times, Lao Chen didn't say that I could guess it, whatever, I don't just ask for peace of mind, ask for food and clothing for the people, justice is in the hearts of the people, to deal with this kind of person, you just need to take out the results, stuff him in his mouth, and choke him to death." ”

If Qiu Zhi would not have thought like this in the past, but after staying in the Wen family for a long time, and being influenced by the free and casual nature of the Wen family, he felt that there was nothing wrong with Wen Xiuyi saying this, but he thought that if he did this, it would be quite cool.

"Just do what you want to do, although I am no longer in the court, I still have some previous connections, all of which are your backing." Qiu Zhidao.

Wen Xiuyi glanced at him, good brother, worthy of being a person who shares a son.

The two of them just sat and watched a few boys help the villagers write Spring Festival couplets, until they realized that it was cold, they ran back to the house, continued to drink tea and play chess, and had a comfortable time.

Because of the large number of people who wrote, it was basically written in one morning, and every household got the Spring Festival couplets they wanted, and they could only barely write a meaning on the gate, but now every household has pasted it on each door, and the village chief does not know where to turn out a number of red lanterns that have changed color, and the village hangs one at a distance, and even the ancient paulownia tree at the entrance of the village is also hung with red silk.

In the afternoon, the children in the village rushed to Wen's house to find them, saying that Li Erhu's family had started killing pigs, and called them to go and see.

As the only butcher in Gutong Village, Li San can now be regarded as reforming his ways, Li Erhu has lost his former arrogance, although they still hide when they see the big head, but they have never bullied other children in the village again.
