Farmer's Little Girl

Chapter 2022

It wasn't long before old Zhou tou heard what he said in the village. She immediately went to Qian, "Mom, man Bao wants to marry Erya. What family is he talking about?"

Qian Shi: "... There's no shadow yet. Don't worry."

"Erya is so old. It's not urgent. Girls as old as her in the village are the mother of two children."

Qian continued to hold the dough. "What are you afraid of? LIULANG got married late. Didn't he also say a good marriage? If you have the ability, you will have a good marriage no matter how late. "

Feng Shi was thoughtful and thought that her mother-in-law was right, but... She hadn't seen her daughter for two years and didn't know how she was.

Feng couldn't help asking, "Mom, do you and dad still go to the capital during the new year?"

Qian thought and said, "don't worry. If there are many things at home, you won't go."

Feng wanted them to go, but she couldn't follow them. When they went, they could look at the children a little. Both of them were in the capital. They were not young, so it was time to talk about marriage.

Qian comforted his daughter-in-law and turned to Sanlang, who was repairing farm tools, and said, "Sanlang, it's getting late. Go and call your father back."

In the past, this kind of thing was done by the children at home, but now the children are not at home. On Wednesday, Lang can only put down his work and call his father.

When Lao Zhou tou was called back, there was still some unfinished business, and the people in the village were also unfinished business. Several people who had a good time with him went back together, and then stood outside the wall of Lao Zhou's house and talked for a long time before they dispersed.

Now the old Zhou family is very respectable in Qili Village, and their popularity looks better than before.

This is not only because man Bao is an official and the most promising person in Qili Village, but also because of the influence of the old Zhou family on Qili Village.

Now many families in the village have planted medicinal materials. Yams, ginger and privet seeds are planted for several mu. Some of the collected medicinal materials are sold to Zhou Erlang's County, Fucheng and neighboring counties; The other was handed over to Lang on Thursday and sold further away.

In the past two years, they have made a lot of money because of this. Therefore, four families in Guangcun bought the dozens of cattle Lang brought back on Thursday.

Others were sold to several nearby villages.

Because they are all villagers, Lao Zhou's decision-making is less. Each cow is about 100 Wen less than that sold in the bull market in the county.

Old Zhou tou was a little distressed when he made this decision, but he said to his sons, "this is the root of our family. You do business abroad and man Bao is an official in the capital, but no matter where you go, you will always come back here in the future, so the benefits that should be given to the villagers should be given. Most of your brothers are outside now. You can't help the villagers build houses, marry daughters in law and send the elderly. You can only give love from other places. "

Zhou Erlang and others nodded.

Old Zhou tou said, "but you can't give too much. You earn all your money at home. It's dangerous to go out to do business."

However, Qian said, "even with your cousins and cousins, you should pay attention to discretion. Give what you should give and don't give what you shouldn't give, otherwise good people won't be bad for you."

This time when he came back, Zhou Silang planned to take his two cousins out of the Qian family, mainly in and out of the grassland. He would work hard for many things.

They are not a little dangerous. Last time they added two cars because of insufficient manpower. The people are now employed. As a result, they ran away when they were in danger and ordered some goods.

However, the three sons he took with him and the people under Xiang Mingxue's hand are stable, so he thinks it's better for himself.

Zhou Erlang is now in charge of the herbal medicine business in several nearby counties and Fucheng. Every time he goes out, he invites the young and strong people in the village and the people from his uncle's family. However, he is only busy in autumn and winter. After all, they collect all the herbal medicine they grow at that time.

Because of these, the old Zhou family is now very prestigious in the village. Even the village head likes to come to Zhou Erlang to discuss something.

Of course, after Lao Zhoutou came back, they turned to talk to Lao Zhoutou.

The village head went to old Zhou tou this time to discuss whether to offer a pig's head for ancestor worship this year.

Qili Village used to be very poor. There were chickens, meat and fish during ancestor worship, but it didn't provide pig heads. After all, pig heads are very expensive.

The last time I sent a pig's head to my ancestors, I heard that man Bao was an official. The village was lively once.

Last time, Zhou Yin was wronged and was awarded mianzhou mu

The village head mentioned this is to discuss with old Zhou tou and ask him to pay, not all, but the big head.

This is also the custom agreed in the village. Whoever is richer will get more. After all, the ancestors bless.

In the past, the old Zhou family did not give much and many, belonging to the middle group.

However, old Zhou tou was not stingy at all. He agreed without thinking about it. He didn't have to ask Qian to take the money, so he took out the money himself. He also said to the village head, "you have to let the old ancestors bless our family's prosperity and prosperity, and everyone in the family is safe and healthy."

Village head:... Does he need to find him if he wants to have this ability? I made all the sacrifices of my ancestors.

But he said, "don't worry, uncle Jin. My ancestors will surely bless your family."

Qili Village was very lively. It started shooting on New Year's Eve, and it was the most when offering sacrifices to ancestors on the morning of the first day of the lunar new year. It was crackling until the third day of the lunar new year.

The capital is also very lively, but ordinary people are lively. This year, officials simply meet to pay New Year's greetings and make a bow. In addition to their relatives, officials even confiscate festival gifts.

As for banquets, no one dares to drink and celebrate on a large scale unless they drink secretly behind closed doors.

However, as soon as the eighth day yamen opened its printing, seven or eight officials were impeached for banquets during the period of national filial piety, and one was a concubine during the period of national filial piety.

Then, at man Bao's first imperial meeting in the new year, he saw the demotion of eight officials. The concubine was directly demoted out of the capital, from five grades to seven grades, and was transferred to a lower county to be a county magistrate.

Man Bao was very nervous, and then he was a little uncertain. After retreating from the court, he followed closely for two steps to catch up with county magistrate Tang.

County Magistrate Tang looked at her curiously and asked, "what's the matter?"

Man Bao pulled him to a remote place, lowered his voice and asked, "I know it's taboo to take concubines in filial piety. Is that a roommate?"

Tang County twisted her face and lowered her voice, "who will spy if there is no human life in the boudoir?"

"What if someone dies?"

Magistrate Tang:

He looked up and down at Zhou man and asked in a low voice, "who, please come to you?"
