Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

Mrs. Cui nodded, and seeing that the villagers were all there, she said, "Uncle village chief, I caused trouble to the village because of me. Mr. Hu and his daughter-in-law were both sold to work as coolies in the southern seaport, and the Zhuangzi of the Jiao family next door also Pay me off.

"I'm planning to sell that village, but there's a lot of food and farm tools in the village, and I don't need them, so I bring them all to the village. It's my apology to everyone!"

"Mrs. Jiao is too polite, we didn't lose anything, it's just that Hu Laosan, that white-eyed wolf, scolded a few more words."

The village chief hurriedly declined, after all, Hu Laosan had been exposed before he even started to calculate, and they were really of no help.

But Mrs. Cui made up her mind, "Uncle, these grains and things are for everyone, so you just agree to accept them. I will live in the village in the future. Don't apologize, I don't have the face to come back again." .”

Seeing that she was sincere, the village chief thought for a while and said, "That's okay, everyone will keep it. Recently, there are a lot of craftsmen who have been recruited, and one meal is provided at noon every day. The food is really not enough."

Everyone saw that the long carriage was full of tens of thousands of catties of grain, so they didn't have to worry about running out of grain throughout the spring and summer.

So, regardless of age, they were all overjoyed and thanked them one after another.

"Thank you Mrs. Cui, these grains are really helpful."

"That's right, Mrs. Cui, we are a family, so don't say any more troublesome words in the future."

"So, Hu Laosan came to make trouble, and he did a great thing. If he didn't come to make trouble, we wouldn't get so much food."

"Haha, it makes sense, who doesn't like us, come a few more, and our village will get rich."

Everyone was talking and joking, and it was very lively for a while.

Mrs. Cui patted the good news in her arms, and said to Mrs. Li's family.

"Auntie, Fu Niu, Brother Qiu Sheng, and Hong Ying have all been wronged this time. I know that you can't accept money and food. Fortunately, there is a full set of high-quality wooden utensils in Jiao's village. Put it away. When our family moves to a new house, I'll send someone to send it. It's my apology, and it's also a congratulatory gift, okay?"

She was thoughtful, and didn't spend any money on purpose, but still took the Jiao family's wool.

Sure enough, Mrs. Li responded immediately, "Okay, this thing is valid, and my aunt took it."

Madam Cui was relieved and called everyone to unload the car.

It has to be said that Jiao's life is still good, and the grain in the village is more than that of Zhuangzi under the management of the Houfu.

Coarse grains such as sorghum and millet weigh more than 8000 catties.One thousand catties of round-grained rice, three thousand catties of unhulled rice, and about six hundred catties of fine noodles.There are more than a dozen bags of other beans of various colors, and countless cabbages and radishes.

Like ants, the villagers moved for an hour before they were finished.

Afraid of the rain, the village chief urged the villagers to urgently build another big shack, temporarily serving as a warehouse.

Each family donated linoleum, which was tightly covered over the shack, for fear of leaking rain and spoiling the food.

After being so busy, it was already half afternoon.

But everyone looked at the shack with extra peace of mind.

Food is life, especially for those with no foundation like them. This temporary granary is like the first root they have planted, and finally everyone has a bit of confidence.

The village chief waved his cigarette pot and told the women a few words, and the dinner was prepared extraordinarily sumptuously.

Japonica rice and millet are mixed together to cook two rice, plus pork belly stewed cabbage tofu, which makes everyone happily eat and giggle while holding the pottery bowl.

After Jiayin ate the custard bibimbap, she couldn't help her hunger, so she opened the snack box brought by Mrs. Cui and took a piece of walnut cake.

Afraid of grandma's nagging, she huddled beside Mrs. Cui, gnawed earnestly like a little mouse, and knew how to pick up dim sum crumbs with her little hands.

Seeing Mrs. Li, she pampered her granddaughter on the forehead.

Madam Cui smiled and hugged Jiayin in her arms, and put a veil on her lap, letting her eat whatever she wanted.

The village head and the first few escorts, Uncle Zhao and Liu, also came over to Li's house to talk around the fire.

They also knew about the tragedy of the Guo family, and Mrs. Cui told them that the Guo family might buy the village next door.

At the end she sighed, "When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to talk to Mr. Guo Shanchang about what happened back then. After all, Senior Brother Wen and I didn't see it with our own eyes, so we might bother Brother Qiusheng and Escort Liu to come and give personal witnesses."

Li Laosi and Liu Biaotou quickly responded, "This is what we should do. The Guo family was buried with our help. We must tell them where the bones are buried and the books, and we will bring them back when we have the opportunity."

The village head and Uncle Zhao are a few years old, and they feel sympathy for the equally old head Guo Shan, who lost all his children and grandchildren in one fell swoop.

"I must persuade the Guo family to mourn, this world is like this, always think more about the living."

"Yeah," Mrs. Li also nodded, and told the fourth child and Biaotou Liu, "When the time comes, you should be more tactful and don't go into too many details. The old man will be even more sad when he hears it. If he only knows that he was killed, the bones will be buried properly." , will be better."

The village head, Uncle Zhao and the others were also thinking about this, so they said, "Younger sister is right, when the time comes, the fourth child and Escort Liu will play by ear."

Fourth Li and Escort Liu responded quickly, and told Mrs. Cui that they would come here early to send a letter.

Even if this matter is settled, everyone will put it to the back of their minds for the time being.

The construction inside and outside the valley is now the busiest time.

In the village, half of the foundations of the houses have been laid. If nothing else, they will be ready to move in in one month.

Originally, I wanted to build an independent courtyard for each family. At most, it was the difference between building three main rooms for less family members and adding a side room for more people.

But with the more than 1000 taels that he collected earlier, he was a bit stretched.

The villagers discussed it and decided to build four rows of houses with ridges, that is, each family shares the East and West Fangshan.People who also want to build wing rooms also have east and west wing rooms back to back, saving another wall.

In this way, the advantage is that the cost is greatly reduced, and the disadvantage is that each family is too compact.

But in this extraordinary period, it is good to be able to settle down and take root, and it is not easy to pay attention to perfection in everything.

But there are exceptions. The houses of Mr. Ye and Mrs. Cui, together with the Li family, these three houses are self-contained, and they are located at the entrance of the village.

The Li family courtyard is the main building, with three main rooms and east and west wing rooms, very spacious and generous.

The courtyards of the Cui family and the Ye family are slightly smaller, and they also have the main house and the east and west wing rooms.

From a distance, the courtyards of the three families are like the wings of swallows, vaguely guarding the entrance of the village, and also protecting the families in the village behind them.

The yards of Mrs. Cui and Mr. Ye are just down. The family took the money themselves, and the family is the patron saint of the whole village.

But the Li family consciously took advantage of the village, and the old lady always wanted to make up for it.

But most of the money saved by the family before was used to build the valley, and there is not much left.I still need to save some for urgent needs, and I plan to let Jiaren continue to study, in short, I really can't spend too much money.

So, Fu Niu, the precious granddaughter, played bed magic with her grandma again after a long time, and conjured up ten five taels of silver coins.

This was obtained from Young Master Ye in exchange for one piece of silver for one pill.She hid it for a long time, but now it comes in handy.

Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter, but she didn't know where the money came from. She was more and more worried that her granddaughter was young and didn't know the severity, which would ruin her life.

But when the granddaughter was asked to take it back, the granddaughter refused. She really didn't sleep well all night.
