Mrs. Li hurriedly greeted them to enter the house for tea.

Then he asked Jiaxi Jiaan to go to the field and called Li Laosan and Li Laosi back.

Soon, the hall was full of people.

The village head is also straightforward, straight to the point, explaining his intentions.

"Big sister, we came here to discuss something.

These six brothers of mine have twenty mu of land in their hands.

But they are not in good health, and it takes a lot of effort to grow them every year.

Moreover, if the harvest is delayed, in addition to the grain tax, there will be a ration left.

It was originally a fertile field, and if it is planted well, it can always earn two taels of silver a year.

It's a pity no matter what.

So, I came here today just to ask.

Do you want your family to take over the twenty acres of land?

Your family has a lot of labor, so the [-] acres should be busy.

In autumn, in addition to paying grain taxes.

Give me these old brothers, just leave a ration.

Of course, there are some small jobs in the fields on weekdays, and they can also do them together.

No one will be lazy if they can do their best.

Look, will it work? "

Mrs. Li was a little dazed when she heard this, and turned to look at her three sons.

They are also accidents.

"Brother Village Chief, speaking of this matter, don't the old brothers suffer too much?

Otherwise, the land is still planted by you.

When we are done at home, we will go to help you. "

"No, that's not the case."

Uncle Zhao next door was the first to speak.

"Big sister, we are all half-crippled.

Every spring plowing and autumn harvesting, I really can't bear the heavy physical work.

Looking at the good fields, the plantings are messy.

We don't feel well either.

If your family takes over, it will definitely not happen again.

As for us, we can help more or less.

In autumn, just take a ration, as long as you don't starve to death. "

The rest of the old men also chimed in one after another.

"Yes, I have three acres of land.

Only two acres were planted last year, and that was thanks to the help of the villagers. "

"It's a good place. It's a pity that it fell into the hands of us cripples."

Mrs. Li saw that they were sincere, and the family's ten mu of land was indeed a little small.

She thought about it and said.

"I know that the old brothers are kind-hearted, and they also mean to take care of our family.

But our family can't take advantage of you, after all, life is not easy.

How about this, our family took over the [-] mu of land.

Don't tell me, you only need one ration in autumn.

In the future, what our family eats will be what you eat.

Even if there is no harvest in the fields, there will be no shortage of your meals. "

"That's impossible!" The old men immediately objected.

Although the life of the Li family is tight, but because they have many children, they cannot be frugal.

The Li family's food is usually the best in the village.

I often buy white rice and fine noodles and come back, Tao Hongying will also bring back meat dishes when she goes to the stove.

If they eat with the Li family in the future, the Li family will have to raise six more mouths, but it's too bad.

"Yes, we only need a few bags of sorghum."

"When I'm old, I can't even do any work, as long as I have a stutter."

Li's second brothers are all soft-hearted and take good care of the old man on weekdays.

At this time, it is natural to persuade.

"Uncle Zhao, you just listen to my mother.

Our brothers cultivate the land well, and we just need to harvest more grain in autumn. "

"Yeah, it's very troublesome for you to start a business on weekdays.

Hadn't he cooked the sorghum rice the day before yesterday, so he wouldn't have to eat the sorghum rice in the future. "

Li Laosan is really simple and honest, and when he opened his mouth, the old men blushed.

There is no woman in the family, and they usually just fool around.

Overcooked rice is a common occurrence...

Mrs. Li made a final decision, "That's the way to do it, the village chief is here, just to write a document.

From now on, the fields of several old brothers will be planted by our family.

Then the food is provided by our family, and we will add two sets of clothes, shoes and socks a year.

Write it all down, and we will not be afraid if someone gossips in the future. "

The old men were excited to hear this.

In this way, it was better than they imagined.

You don't have to worry about eating and dressing in the future.

Uncle Zhao hurriedly said, "Write one more sentence on the document.

From now on, the firewood cutting and vegetable growing at home will all belong to us.

Don't grab anyone, we can still do these jobs. "

"Okay, that's it."

The village chief slapped the table, his face flushed with excitement, and urged Li Laoer to write the paperwork quickly.

Li Lao Er took the pen and paper and wrote carefully and clearly.

Then they were three brothers and six old men all had their fingerprints.

In the end, it was the village chief who was the witness.

For a time, everyone was happy.

After seeing off the old men and the village chief, Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter and didn't speak for a long time.

Jiayin struggled to stand up and rubbed grandma's frowning brows.

Mrs. Li regained her senses and kissed her granddaughter with a smile.

Then I called my sons to talk, "We have added [-] acres of land to plant, and our family is still a little short of manpower.

In this way, my second son, go to the cattle and horse market to have a look, and buy a mule and come back.

It is best to bring a cart, which is convenient for pulling things.

In the future, Hongying's fellow who goes to the stove will have a lot of work, or pick up Jiaren, and they will all be used. "

When Li Lao Er heard about it, they all became excited.

Adding animals to the family is a big deal.

Mules are not as fast as horses, but they are easy to serve and have good physical strength.

Whether it is farming and pulling a plow stick, or pulling a cart on a road, he is a good player.

It is a better helper in life than a donkey.

But the price...

"Mother, I'm afraid that if you want 20 taels of silver, will it make things difficult for the family?"

Mrs. Li waved her hand to reassure her sons.

"Don't be afraid, there are more than 60 taels at home, enough for spending."

Only then did Li's second son cheer up and shouted.

"Tomorrow is the cattle and horse market in the north of the county, let's go and have a look."

"Yes, it's best for each village to ask, in case there is a suitable one."

"In the future, there is no need to borrow the donkey cart from the village chief's house."

Mrs. Li patted her granddaughter and smiled happily.

There is no idiot Wu Cuihua at home, so there is no need to be on guard against her all the time.

It is also convenient to talk, and no one interferes with discussing anything.

But at this time, Wu Cuihua, who was missed by Mrs. Li, was really in dire straits.

She sat on the ground, patted her thigh and cried and cursed.

In a blink of an eye, it has been a month since I was kicked out by the family.

The food provided by the Li family is enough for her to feed herself.

Originally, she ate all day and ate while sleeping.

Occasionally go out to gossip and watch the excitement.

Life should be fine too.

But Wu Ergou also lives here, so grab this meal.

He got up early and left after dinner, spent the day in the casino, and then came back to eat and sleep at night.

It's really much more comfortable than living in no fixed place before.

This is suffering Wu Cuihua, tightening her belt and eating with her younger brother.

Everyone gained weight during the Chinese New Year, but she lost a lot of weight.

Today Li Lao Er came to deliver food again, and she was just happy to have a full meal.

As a result, as soon as he turned around, the food bag was gone.

"Who kills a thousand knives, actually ran to my house to steal food.

Why don't you strike him with lightning and kill him!

A thing with dead children and grandchildren, a thing with rotten claws! "

At this moment, in the courtyard, every family is cooking.

She was sitting at the door, and everyone could hear her yelling and cursing.

Living a good life, suddenly being labeled as a thief.

No one wants to.

So, there was that bad temper in his early days.

"My surname is Wu, do you need to wipe your eyes before you swear?

If you are blind, we are also blind.

There is a thief living in your house, who lost something, and then blamed it on others.

Why do you have such a big face! "

Wu Cuihua jumped up from the ground with a cry, pinched her waist and cursed back.

"Who do you say is a thief?

You are blind!"
