Xiufeng Village.

The content of the discussions was different.

Some people who knew that Hu Mingyu had entered Prince Rui's Mansion knew that Hu Mingyu was going to be a concubine, so they naturally did not believe the rumors outside. They were interested in the fact that Hu Pianhuan was the princess' adopted sister. Blessing.

Some people not only believe the rumors, but also add fuel to the fire, saying that Hu Pianhuan has been rebellious since she was born. When she was Hu Mingyu's maid, she was disobedient, very scheming, cheating, lazy and unwilling to do anything. She worked hard and often ate in secret, so she was kicked out by Hu Mingyu. Fortunately, Hu Mingyu kicked her out early, otherwise her luck would have been stolen and she wouldn't even be able to become a concubine.

Most of the new villagers in Xiufeng Village moved away from the center of the village and moved to build houses near the old Hu Tou's house at the back of the village, except for the wealthy man Hu's family who settled in the village.

They all heard that Hu Pianxuan was a county girl, but they didn't believe those gossips.

They have so much work to do that they have no time to chat and enjoy the daily life. They focus on building their own adobe houses. Among them, six or seven families built brick houses, which look impressive.

After the house was built, before they could take a breath, Lao Hutou invited them to build a house on the mountain again, and then asked them to dig a pond and plant lotus roots. I heard that the 20-acre pond in his second house was used for Raising fish was not enough, so Lao Hutou took out another thirty acres of land and hired someone to dig a pond.

The life of Lao Hu's first three sons has already improved.

Hey.

This person is really incomparable. Look at Old Hutou. His family has made a fortune just from raising fish. Otherwise, why would they have dug fifty acres of ponds to raise fish and planted lotus roots in them? Woolen cloth.

When Lao Hutou, Lu and others heard the rumors outside, they were so angry that they gritted their teeth and almost rushed out to argue with others.

Fortunately, everyone in the Hu clan believed in Lao Hutou and the Lu clan. In addition, they did not live with the original Xiufeng Village people, so even if they went out, they would not hear any gossip.

The rumors they heard were scattered sentences or two, not complete, because the Hu clan members did not believe and would not spread rumors about Hu Pianxun. They were all busy working to make money.

Not only had they dug a pond for Lao Hutou, the clan leader also asked them to build the Hu family's ancestral hall.

The Hu clan members, old, weak, women and children all went into battle, and everyone worked particularly hard.

Ever since, two different scenes appeared in Xiufeng Village.

In the village, everyone is sitting under the big tree, chatting and doing nothing. But in the back of the village, everyone is working hard and is very busy. What they want in their mind is to work more to earn one or two more coins or dig the ground. When watering and harvesting, one or two more buckets of grain can be harvested, and there is no time to chat.

Rumors spread in the village.

This incident naturally alarmed Rich Man Hu.

Rich Man Hu looked confused. Although the rumors were beneficial to his daughter Mingyu, Mingyu's current situation was far worse than that of Hu Pianxuan.

He was worried and in a bad mood. He couldn't help but wipe his old face. Anger filled his chest and he felt a dull pain in his temples.

His daughter Hu Mingyu was just an inconspicuous concubine of General Zhenguo, which surprised him. Didn't the eminent monk in the temple say that his daughter would be rich and destined? How could Mingyu end up like this?

Mingyu's former maid Hu Pianhuo was recognized as a adopted sister by Princess Qingping and Princess Linglong at the same time. She was very dazzling and could be regarded as a rare existence in Xiufeng Village.

Rich Man Hu suddenly felt that his daughter Mingyu's luck and good fortune had been taken away by Hu Pianheng!

This is not a rumor, it is the truth, although the rumor was not spread by his orders.

He can now fully understand the reason why Mingyu targeted Pianyi and wanted to kill Pianyi in the past. Mingyu was forced and she was protecting herself.

In Xiufeng Village, there are some people with dark minds, pinkeye, and no good in others. They have been rejecting new villagers. Now that they heard about Hu Pianheng, this small group of people ran to find Village Chief Du. They reasoned with Village Chief Du.

They all felt that it would take a year for the refugees to take root in Xiufeng Village, and the situation was so good that they overtook the Du clan in one fell swoop.

The Hu clan not only built a large house in just one year, but also recently used the whole clan's efforts to build an ancestral hall. This situation cannot be allowed to continue. How can the Du clan lose face?

What this small group of people said was true, and Village Chief Du couldn't do anything after hearing it, so Village Chief Du ignored this group of people and just scolded the slanderous villagers and told them to take care of themselves.

What can Village Chief Du do?

The new villagers did not steal or rob, and the source of their income was legal. The old bearded man who was the most popular in the playground recently had the protection of the county magistrate. What could he do to them?

It can't be done!

However, this also makes Village Chief Du feel very worried, especially after he has led his clan members to work hard in Xiufeng Village for thirty years, but he has never been able to make the Du family go further. How depressed he felt when the foreigners overtook him.

As the rumors against Hu Pianhuan spread, the mentality of the villagers in Xiufeng Village has undergone subtle changes, and this change is slowly taking root in the hearts of the people.

As soon as Hu Pianhuan entered the village in a carriage, he was surrounded by the children in the village.

But this time, the children did not dare to get too close, because these children also heard that Hu Pianheng had two princess sisters, so they were afraid, afraid of offending Pianhua and making Pianhua angry. If Hui goes to complain to the princess, by then they will be left with nothing to eat.

Of course, what children know, adults also know, so they spread rumors about Hu Pianheng mostly in private and do not dare to put it out in the open.

Seeing that Hu Pianhuan was back, they were even more afraid. Some of them were timid. When they saw Hu Pianhuan coming back, they were so scared that they ran home directly, not daring to face Pianhuan directly.

It was only after Hu Pianheng returned home that Mrs. Lu was nagging her in front of her that she heard rumors about her were spread outside. It turned out that the news that she was a county girl came back with her, both front and back. thing.

Hu Pianxuan didn't take the rumors spread seriously at all. She also told Mrs. Lu not to pay too much attention and do whatever she was supposed to do.

What she is more concerned about is, when the shops in Fucheng and Beijing are opened, will fish oil be available? She doesn’t have to worry about the distiller’s grain fish and dried fish. Also, when can she start making lotus root starch and pea starch?

When Old Hutou saw that his capable granddaughter had finally returned home, his old face that had experienced many vicissitudes of life immediately burst into laughter. He also heard that his granddaughter said that he planned to open a shop selling fish oil and distiller's fish in Fucheng, Xijun and Jingcheng. He was so proud. Ten thousand feet, passionate and high-spirited.

"Pianheng, the boy called Guan Feng came to the house and ordered our family's fish oil production for the whole year. I thought that the fish oil business could be bigger, so I hired someone to dig another thirty acres of ponds. , now that the pond has been dug, my wife and I go to the cave to feed the fish every day, and move some of the fish in the cave to the pond outside to raise them. Pianheng, guess what, that cave really spits out fish, and there is an endless supply. There are so many spitting fishes that I can’t catch them all, hahaha…”

With such a cave that spits out fish, his family should become rich.

Old Hutou smiled heartily, and Mrs. Lu was also smiling as she sat aside. Looking at the medicinal materials, furs and cloths that her granddaughter brought back to them from the capital, she felt as sweet as drinking honey.

Pian He waited for Old Hutou to laugh enough, and was about to say something about hiring more people, but he didn't expect that Old Hutou's chatter box had opened up, and he couldn't hold it back.

He couldn't help but said: "Pianheng, the house on the mountain has been built. I have moved the work of boiling fish oil to the house on the mountain. Your uncle has already moved to the house on the mountain. He is there." Guarding the house and boiling fish oil.”

"Pianheng, don't worry. I asked someone to add a wall between the house and the cave. I opened a door on the wall. The door is locked. The key is always hanging on my body. I usually go to the mountain to boil fish oil. No one can discover that there is a cave there.”

"I divided the cooking of fish oil and making of fish with distiller's grains into two parts. Guozi's mother was in charge of making fish with distiller's grains, and I was in charge of boiling the fish oil. I arranged for your third aunt, sister-in-law, uncle and your cousin to go to the mountain to boil the fish oil. One person can watch three of them at the same time. With a small earthen stove, together with the old lady, me, and your uncle, we can cook seven kilograms of fish oil a day..."

The old bearded man talked a lot, basically telling everything that happened during Pian He's trip to the capital.

Pian He knew that the fish oil must be available at home, and it was impossible for Lao Hutou to make money or not.

She said happily: "Grandpa, how many kilograms of fish oil did Guan Feng order?"

Pian Huan had no objection to Lao Hutou's arrangement. He was in charge and no one dared to say anything.

"One thousand catties." Old Hutou smiled with a smile on his face. He really didn't expect that the business would be so good. Someone ordered the fish oil before it even came out. He really didn't have to worry about sales. He sat at home and counted the money.
