After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

After looking forward to the stars and the moon for more than ten days, Hong Daniu and his party are back.

Eighteen men were riding donkeys and pulling farm tools, all of them beaming with joy.

Looking at this look, how could Li Dani and others not know? I felt relieved and went to work with peace of mind.

As soon as the men came back, they divided into two groups. One group unloaded the farm tools, unloaded the carts, and drove the cattle and donkeys to the pen to feed. The other group went to the master's house to report the situation verbally.

Their family was headed by the mistress, so they went directly to Shui Qing.

Shui Qing was looking at the account books. When he saw someone coming, he put down the accounts, raised his eyes and asked with a smile: "How are things going?"

In fact, there is no need to ask, just look at Hong Mancang's red face.

Feng Da first bowed and reported back to the business: "There were originally several cows and donkeys in Zhulin Village. If we add the twenty of them, we can plow eighty or ninety acres of land in one day. Adding what they plowed before, we can plow all the land in two days." Plowing is done;

During the rest of the time, we helped plant potatoes and dig adobe. We had many cows and donkeys, so we helped pull the gray tiles back so that they could build the house before summer came;

Before coming back, their potatoes and those things like bamboo poles you ordered were all planted, so they didn't dare to delay! However, I only bought gray tiles for the house and had not officially started building it yet. I was thinking about going out soon and did not dare to miss the main business, so I hurried back. "

The fields and fields are waiting for no one, so they must be planted as soon as possible; if the house is fine, they can live in the thatched house first and build it in their spare time.

Shui Qing nodded after hearing this, and went to visit eighteen men in their prime, plus twenty animals, so the efficiency was naturally high.

Seeing that the business was approved by his mistress, Feng Da continued to report: "The people in Zhulin Village are very good, and there are many families of marriageable girls among the more than 100 people. However, it is only thanks to the kindness of the mistress that this matter can be resolved. Extremely smooth!”

Speaking of this, the other men got excited and couldn't help but interject: "It's true that our master is kind. Gong Shang Zhou Youzhou went back and praised him a lot. He also said that our place is extremely wealthy and the roofs are all tiles! "

They have never lived in a house with tiles before. Just buying tiles for a house costs several taels of silver, and thatch and straw cost no money. Who is willing to spend a small amount of money on this? One flower is worth several taels!

"They said our place is clean and tidy, well-protected, has walls, watchtowers, and people on duty! There are people patrolling day and night, so it's safe."

People who have been through floods and wars, their eyes light up when they hear there are walls and patrols, and they are as excited as when they hear there is food. This attraction is too great!

"There are also grains, cloths, old hens, rabbit eggs, etc. that the master brought back to them. They are also servants. If they have it, we servants must also have it, so our life here will definitely not be bad.

With this thought, no matter how old or young, they are very willing to marry her. "

They were worried that the journey would be long and that many people would be reluctant to leave. But after months of fear, everyone was more concerned about their children and future generations living well.

After Shui Qing heard that she was willing, she also made up her mind and asked with concern: "Have you talked about the betrothal gift? How did you discuss the wedding date?"

The elder Hong Daniu replied: "As I said, they are very satisfied with the eight taels of silver, and the fabric and candy we brought, the girl's family also likes it!

After discussion, we both decided that the two sides are far away and it is inconvenient to travel back and forth. I thought that the earliest you said would be 18 before leaving the house, so I just decided on 16. Do you think so? "

Thanks to Ding Jiajia's help in selecting it, especially the fabric was so suitable. My in-laws felt that they valued it, and they were much less sad.

Shui Qing was stunned, "April 16?"

Today is already thirteen!

It seems that everything such as hiring has been simplified, but it is also understandable. The poor think that it is good to be alive, but she, as the head of the family, can help to do a little better: "Have you figured out what to do with the wedding banquet? ?”

Hong Daniu continued to reply: "I have thought about it. The farming in Zhulin Village is over, and building a house is not very urgent compared to this. Plus, they have been hearing from the men back home how good our Shanshui Village is, and they want to come here while they can marry their daughter. Let's take a look here.

Because Mr. Bai had greeted the owner of the village earlier, Baijiazhuang would send a few people over to help look after the farm tools and other belongings. They would set out on the evening of the 15th, and they would be able to come over to worship on the morning of the 16th, and then go back after dinner.

There are more than 100 people and two meals. If the main food is potatoes, it will be enough for the four of us. We also have chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits. But we think that our in-laws will finally come over. We don’t know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse next time, so I'm thinking of buying some corn noodles from your place, do you think there's still some left? "

The host had given them a lot of white flour rice before, but they had saved it and didn't eat much of it. There was still more than half of it left, which they could use just right this time.

There may not be enough white flour at home for more than a hundred people, so they have to mix in some corn flour.

Shui Qing: ..... What kind of corn flour should I use? She bought corn flour at the mall and it was more expensive than white flour!

She smiled and said: "Since they are all here, don't worry about the wedding banquet. Let Dani, Zhou Yu and others come over, and I will discuss the dishes with them. By then, there will be more than ten tables in my yard, which will be enough to sit. , and then told them to finally come and rest for one night, and then go back the next day;

The four of you have made good preparations for the marriage ceremony and also packed up the house for them to stay for one night. "

After coming all the way overnight, more than a hundred people walked on two legs, had two meals and then rushed back overnight. The donkeys of the production team didn't move around like this.

Especially when marrying a daughter, there will always be some worries and reluctance to leave. At the wedding, good food is important, which can somewhat soothe the uneasy hearts of the parents and relatives.

Hearing that Shui Qing was going to help them hold a wedding banquet, the young men all looked at the host, their lips trembled, and they didn't know what to say to express their gratitude.

Shui Qing waved her hand and said with a smile: "Hurry up and find Dani, Zhou Yu and the others. There will be a wedding banquet the day after tomorrow, but the style of the dishes has not been decided yet!

You are also going to be the groom's official. Go back and get ready. Also, keep your home and outside clean and tidy. "

"Hey, okay!"

"Madam, don't worry!"

The men retreated happily and did not let Shui Qing wait for too long. Zhou Yu, Wang Qiuyue and Li Dani hurried over with a look of joy on their faces.

Can you be unhappy? All eleven men are getting married all of a sudden. Whether they are from your own family or from other people's families, we are all one body. We have gone through hardships. Now that a big event is about to happen, I just want to do my best to make it happen. This big and happy event was successfully completed!

What's more, they didn't expect that Madam would take him all over and attach as much importance to them as they did.
