Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Zhou Lizhong really saved a lot of money. Man Bao heard that the wedding date had been set. On June 28, he turned around and immediately wrote to his parents, asking them to come and see their eldest grandson get married.

Then, he picked and picked on the shelves in the space, picked out the fabric that he thought was suitable for Liu Sanniang, took it out and gave it to Xiao Qian.

When Mrs. Qian saw the cloth in her arms, she saw that there were at least five or six, and the cloth underneath almost touched the ground. She immediately went up to catch it and asked, "Are you going to make clothes?"

"No," Man Bao said, "This is a dowry gift for Li Zhong."

Little Qian was slightly surprised. She took the things back into the house and counted them carefully. She found that there were six horses in total, and each of them was of good material and color. Manbao rarely buys fabrics outside. For many years, I hadn't seen Man Bao buy fabrics and clothes outside. All of them took the fabrics from home and went out to make them, or Mrs. Liu made them and delivered them.

"Is this a reward from the palace?"

Man Bao nodded, "These two were rewarded by the queen, this one was rewarded by the queen mother, this one was given to me by Mingda, and these two were given by the crown princess. I think the colors are good and they are very suitable for the three. Mother, so you can give Li Zhong a betrothal gift."

Xiao Qian said with a smile: "Your eldest brother and I will go out to buy it, and the big head has saved a lot of money. I have calculated with your eldest brother, and it is enough to buy a good dowry gift. You can take these things back. "

Man Bao shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, you can take it. Anyway, I got a lot of rewards. Half of the fabric I got was handed over to the fourth brother to exchange for tea and medicinal materials. The reason why a few horses are not taken out is because it is good."

"Good cloth, as long as it is well preserved, it will not change color for 10 to 20 years, so the cloth can be used as money. I will add these cloths as a dowry gift. It will not only look better on the face, but also save some money. Money to do other things."

Man Bao also had plans in private, and Bai Shan also reminded her that the development of a family should be at least 20 years later, and the development of a family should be at least 50 years later.

So Man Bao quietly said to Xiao Qian, "Save some money, Li Zhong can turn around after they get married, and we can also buy them some fields."

After being stunned for a moment, the little Qian Shi immediately said: "The big head has divided the land in the village."

"Is there enough Yongyetian points in the village this year?"

"It's still enough."

"What about the sub-field?"

Xiao Qian said with a smile: "It's still a mountain, and there's a lot of land at the bottom of the mountain. Speaking of which, he was lucky this time. He was assigned a very small mountain when he was divided. That piece of wasteland also belongs to him, because the wasteland occupies a lot, the village even opened the wasteland for him, and your second brother and third brother will plant him all privet seeds this year..."

The land in the family is all combined, and the harvest and other things belong to the public, but in the future, unless the old Zhou family is so poor that they need to sell the land to support their parents, when the family is divided, a full share will definitely go back to everyone. Who's, that's who's.

Xiao Qian said this to tell Man Bao that their family has no shortage of land and big heads.

Man Bao said: "The land is not too much, and it is in the village, and it is still too far from the capital. If Sanniang stays in the capital in the future, what will Lizhong do in the capital? He can't have no land at all. "

Xiao Qian said with a smile: "He has the ability now, and he can support himself and his family with only the land at home."

Man Bao knew that she was talking about Zhou Lizhong's business with Zhou Lizhong. No matter how bad it was, he could still be an accountant now, which was better than farming in the village.

Man Bao took her sister-in-law's sign language and said earnestly: "Sister-in-law, for the long-term plan, Lizhong should buy some land here. For business, you can go twice a year like the fourth brother now, you can't do it. excessive."

"The dynasty was generous to the merchants and did not manage it strictly, but if the treasury is very short of money in the future, the dynasty is in urgent need of money, I am afraid that more business taxes will be levied, and there will be strict requirements in other aspects, so the land still cannot be used. No, at least we are farmers, not businessmen."

"This is a long-term plan. In the short term, it's not bad for the husband and wife to have a plot of land near the capital. Not to mention growing some food, just growing some fruits and vegetables can save a lot of money for a year."

Now many of the melons and fruits in Zhouji Restaurant are sent from Pu Village. Those winter melons, pumpkins, and cabbage that can be stored, Zhou Dalang set up a piece of land to plant last year, and the commonly used beans , and directly use the rents handed over by the tenant farmers.

Not only is the restaurant in use, but most of the food at home is sent by Zhuangzi, and there is also the Bai family who often sends some seasonal fruits and vegetables. They are not extravagant, so the family's expenses are not large.

Xiao Qian has lived in the capital for more than a year, but she often communicates with people nearby for shopping, mainly because the several dishes she cooks are very popular.

Just the ingredients are often bought.

Although she was only the manager of the purchases, she had come and gone a lot, and she occasionally heard from them about the expenses of their master's family, which was quite a lot.

After saying this, Xiao Qian can understand. Although she didn't understand what Man Bao said about the long-term plan, she also knew that it was good for her family.

So she was quickly persuaded and thought about it: "It's just that the land in the capital is very expensive. Before, my father wanted to buy some land near the capital with the money, and he asked your elder brother and the others to go out and inquire about it. They just asked, The price is high, so let's not talk about it, we thought about it for two days, and sold it when we asked again."

It's completely different from buying a piece of land where they have to watch it repeatedly for ten or twenty days.

Man Bao couldn't help but let out a loud voice and said, "Sister-in-law, it's hard to buy in the capital. We can go to Yongzhou to have a look. There is a lot of land there, and the price of land is not very expensive."

"That's the only way, then we will allocate some money to buy a few acres of land in Yongzhou, but it is difficult to buy land," Xiao Qian said suspiciously: "But I see a lot of land in the capital and Yongzhou. , it's much bigger than ours, a large piece of flat land passes by, unlike ours, there are mountains, how could so much land not be sold?"

Man Baodao: "The imperial court has stipulated that the Yongye Tian given by the imperial court can only be sold when the elderly cannot support the elderly and have no family resources to bury the elderly. The mouth-divided farmland must be taken back after the death of the person."

"So ordinary people sell less land, and even less for those with wealth, unless they want to move away." Like their family, if they don't stay in the capital in the future, there are only a few acres of land nearby, so it's better to sell it directly. Otherwise, if you keep it, you will not be able to grow it yourself, and it will be troublesome to rent it out to collect rent.

"Also, there are changes in the family," Man Bao said. "Although there are many people in the capital and Yongzhou, there are not many such families, so it is difficult to find land."

But this also has advantages. It is difficult for them to buy land, and it is difficult for others to buy it, so ordinary people rarely lose land. From the perspective of the court, this is actually a good thing.
