Chapter 60: Gossip
Another woman looked Jian Yun up and down, and said in a sour tone: "Look, it's only been a few days, and this figure has become a lot more rounded, and it doesn't look like our peasant girl at all, but like the daughter of the city." ”
These words were all heard by Jian Yun, but she didn't say anything, and went straight back to her home with her package on her back.
I haven't seen it for a while, and a layer of dust has fallen on the table, Jian Yun put the bag on the bed, fetched a basin of water, and cleaned the house a little.
Hearing that Jian Yun was back, many people in this village were a little curious.
After packing her things, Jian Yun opened her package, which contained a brand new set of clothes, which she had bought in the town according to Zhang's figure.
There are also a few pieces of fine fabric under the clothes, which Jian Yun also bought and prepared to give to the Zhang family.
After Jian Yun packed up his things, he picked up his small package and got up to find Zhang: "Auntie, I came back from the town, this is a gift for you, do you like it or not?"
After she entered the door and said these words, she put the package in her hand on the table, and after hearing this, Zhang leaned over curiously, and when she saw that she opened the package and actually put some fine satin fabrics, her eyes were straight.
"You have only earned a few bucks, and it is not good to save it for Xiao Yi to ask for a daughter-in-law in the future, but it is a waste to buy me these good fabrics. Zhang said that he was more distressed than happy.
Seeing this, Jian Yun smiled slightly, and stuffed the things in his hand into Zhang's hand: "These don't cost much, my aunt and the village elder have to go out from time to time, and going out with these clothes with better clothes also makes our Jian family village decent, doesn't it?"
Although he knew that Jian Yun said these words, it was just a rhetoric to ask her to accept the gift, but Zhang's heart was still full of emotion.
"In that case, I'll take it first, thank you for your kindness. Zhang said as he smiled and accepted the object.
When she came back this time, she found that Jian Yun's conversation had become a little different, and Zhang was a little surprised.
Zhang looked Jian Yun up and down, and said sincerely: "After going to the town for so many days and coming back, your whole person feels different. ”
Jian Yun was a little surprised, she just learned etiquette from the Wang family for a few days.
Recalling the days when he had been learning etiquette with the Wang family in the past few days, Jian Yun chuckled: "Is it because I was instructed by the prefect's wife in the town that there are these changes?"
When he heard that even the prefect's wife was instructing her, Zhang was surprised.
However, Zhang Shi breathed a sigh of relief in an instant and said: "I heard that some boring gossip has been uploaded for a while, and I was a little worried about whether you would really get into trouble, but I didn't expect that you would be able to deal with even the prefect's wife when you turned your head, so we can rest assured." ”
This time, Jian Yun still has some things to do when she comes back, such as taking good care of the crops in her field, and planting in greenhouses, the villagers have encountered some trouble and need help to take a look at it again.
"Since you have been there, the whole village has been in a much better place, thanks to you, but don't take it to heart if you hear any idle gossip. Zhang raised his eyes and looked at Jian Yun with some concern.
There will never be anyone in this world who is truly satisfied, even if Jian Yun has done so well, there are still people who will gossip about her behind her back because of jealousy.
Jian Yun instantly understood what Zhang was talking about.
"By the way, you have one more thing to tell you when you come back this time, the village chief told me some time ago, you will not be at home all the year round in the future, do you have any ideas about that piece of land?" Zhang said to Jian Yun with some embarrassment, after all, this matter seems to be a little unfair to Jian Yun.
After hearing this, Jian Yun looked at the Zhang family with some curiosity, and still didn't understand what they were thinking now.
After Zhang's eyes met Jian Yun's gaze, he sighed and continued to speak: "Our idea is that if you have time to come back, then this land is still yours, you can plant it yourself, if you want to leave Jianjia Village all year round, this land naturally cannot be wasted, and we will plant it instead of you, and the crops and the like that will be produced at that time will be divided between several of our families." ”
After hearing this, Jian Yun's heart also understood, and what she said was that after leaving the village, her land would be deserted, but how could the farmer be willing to let a piece of land be wasted, that is, the flower pots planted at the door of the house wanted to be planted with vegetables.
"In that case, then I don't worry about entrusting it to others, why don't I entrust this piece of land to Aunt Zhang's family?" Jian Yun was a little worried about other people in the village, but the Zhang family was still the most suitable.
Hearing this, Zhang showed a knowing smile.
While he was talking, the village chief came in from outside.
When he saw Jian Yun, the village chief showed a hint of surprise, but it turned into a smile in an instant: "I was still talking to others about you just now, and I was still thinking about looking for you when I got home, but you have already come, what a coincidence." ”
Zhang took Jian Yun's hand and got up and said to the village chief: "Miss Jian is a good child, thinking that the two of us have to go out to socialize every day, so I specially brought some fabric back from the city." ”
When the village chief heard this, his eyes were full of surprise, and he said "oops": "I want to tell you something about you, those landlords want to send their children to you and let you teach them." ”
Jian Yun's face was incredulous after hearing this: "You're right, let me teach those children, but I can only farm, not teach!"
"What I want is for you to teach them to farm, and those landlords want to send their children to you to learn when they see that the villagers in our village are planting so well. This tuition fee is easy to say, it depends on whether you are willing or not. The village chief looked at Jian Yun with a smile and said.
Jian Yun thought about it seriously, now the construction of the canals in the upstream and downstream villages is at a critical moment, if she is free, she is naturally willing to teach, but now she just doesn't have this time.
"If this is free, it can be taught, but there is no time now. Jian Yun looked at the village chief in embarrassment and said.
This is also the truth, and the village chief looked at Jian Yun with a smile: "But if you run the school, you will have another income by then, and you don't have to work so hard every day." ”
Yes, Jian Yun thought about it for a while, although she said that she didn't know the Four Books and Five Classics, and she couldn't talk about the Spring and Autumn Period, but he had such a farming ability, which he could teach to those children, and it was more practical for the children of the peasant family to learn the skills of farming.
