Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother
Chapter 64 Rumors
After the busy farming season, everything went back to normal.
"Master Shen, have you heard that gossip about your family is being circulated in the village now?" The person who spoke was none other than the second neighbor of the Shen family, Aunt Shen. There happened to be an episode today, so she stopped by The restaurant came to look for Ho.
"His second aunt, what's the matter? What's the gossip about our family?" Mrs. He said with a puzzled face, she was busy making food in the back kitchen.She was called out mysteriously.
"It wasn't caused by your potatoes, and I don't know who passed it on. It said that your family knew that this food was edible, but deliberately didn't tell everyone. There are so many potatoes, I wonder if some big customer wants to buy them."
In fact, the rumors started a long time ago, but at that time, they were all speculative. They only said that the Shen family knew about a new food, but they didn't tell everyone, but no one really saw what it was.
But now seeing that there is indeed such a food in the Shen family's field that only their family knows about, but everyone does not know about, and they heard that there are big customers who want to buy it, it makes some people jealous.
"Ah? What, what did you say?" Mrs. He panicked. "No, I have to talk to the old man."
"Don't panic, you can't be anxious about this matter. Besides, it's useless to be anxious. In fact, there are only a few families who gossip about your family. On weekdays, they like to gossip the most. Most of them still think about your family. Okay." Second Aunt Shen comforted He Shi.
The fact is indeed the case. Let's talk about Qu Yuanli a while ago, that was a great help to the villagers.
"You're right, there's no need to rush this matter." He calmed down, "Thank you, wait a minute, I'll bring you some food to take away."
"Hey, don't be too polite. I'll go back to whoever we are. "The things here are very expensive, how can it be so expensive.
"You wait, don't go." Mrs. He persisted and went to get food.
Mrs. He packed two bowls of iced porridge and two cups of milkshakes for the second aunt of the Shen family. Now their whole family is in the store every day. If the second aunt of the Shen family hadn't come here to tell her today, they wouldn't know that they would be kept in the dark. How long is it in the drum.
The second aunt of the Shen family couldn't shirk it, so she had no choice but to accept it.
After she left, Mrs. He found Shen's father, but Shen Changjun was not in the store at the moment.
"Gossip?" Father Shen also felt puzzled.
"Yes." Mrs. He angrily repeated what Aunt Shen said just now.
"When we planted it, we were aboveboard. The big guys watched it. If they wanted to plant it, we didn't stop it. Besides, we didn't tell them about the potatoes. Isn't there a reason?" Father Shen was also angry when he heard this. Humming, very dissatisfied with those who gossip.
"Who says it's not?" The old couple felt indescribably depressed.
Shen Changjun didn't know that their house was being gossiped about, and he wasn't in the store. He was drawing his blueprints at home right now.
The blueprints drawn by Shen Changjun are beds and wardrobes. Fang Shan has already researched the way of fire. In this way, the progress of the construction will be faster, so some furniture items are about to be prepared.
Of course, there are many things to do, in addition to beds and wardrobes, there are bookshelves, chests of drawers, cupboards and so on.These are all prepared slowly.
Shen Changjun also taught Wang Min to weave slippers and bamboo mats with bamboo.
Shen Changjun knew that the gossip about his family was after dinner, and Mrs. He always seemed hesitant to speak, so he could still pretend not to see it.
"Mom, what's the matter with you, what happened?"
"You don't look like you're okay. Tell me, what's the matter? Is it related to me?"
"It's all right." He said it was all right, but the expression on his face showed that there was something serious.
"Nothing." Mrs. He hastily dismissed it. She couldn't bear it anymore, and sighed, "It's just gossip about our family in the village."
"Gossip? What kind of gossip?" Shen Zhangjun couldn't think of any gossip after much deliberation.
"It's Tudou, your Second Aunt Shen came to see me today." Mrs. He repeated what happened this afternoon to Shen Changjun again.
"What should I do?" Shen Changjun said with a smile.
He pondered for a while, and said: I know about this, I will go to find my father. "
Father Shen is tending his own vegetable garden in the backyard.
"Father," Shen Changjun called out.
Father Shen stopped what he was doing, straightened his waist, and said, "It's Jun'er, what's the matter, is there something wrong?"
"Well, I heard from my mother, someone recently told about our potatoes?"
"Yeah, you know about it, don't worry about them, just pass it on if you want, we haven't done anything wrong." Father Shen said confidently.
"That's the reason, but the gossip must have a source. You can't just spread gossip about our family for no reason. Why do you have big customers? I don't think it's easy."
"Then why don't we go to the village head's house and talk about it?"
Okay, hurry up, don't hurry up late, just now. "
"Father and son walked towards the village head's house, which is in the middle of the village, not far from Shen's house.
"Uncle Shen, Changjun, why are you here?" The person who spoke was the youngest son of the village chief, two years older than Shen Changjun, who had gone to the village school with Shen Changjun, and now he was a boy student, so he went to the county to go to school After studying, today is Xiumu.
"Brother Ziqian, long time no see." The two also had classmates
"Ziqian is also at home today. We have something to do with your father. Is he at home?" Shen's father was anxious, and asked after seeing the two greeting each other.
"It's in the house." After finishing speaking, he walked into the house, "Father, Uncle Shen and Chang Jun are here."
When the village head saw the person coming, he said: "Oh, the elder is here too, but you haven't come for a while." The village head said with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang is here. Let me see, tsk tsk, she is getting more and more energetic." Mr. Sun, the wife of Murakami, Mr. Shen should call her Auntie.
"Auntie, you are getting younger and younger." Shen Changjun also praised, coaxing Sun from ear to ear.
"You came to me today because of the recent gossip, right?" the village chief asked directly.
"Yeah, I don't know which one it is. They don't want our family to live a good life and arrange us behind the scenes." Father Shen didn't beat around the bush, and said angrily.
"Huh Heng, who else is there, isn't it the two people in the clan." Sun couldn't help but said.
Mrs. Sun has been keeping secrets from those two people for a long time. Since the head of the family became the village head, she has made trouble for them a lot, and she has long disliked them.
Father Shen didn't understand when he heard that he was a member of the clan. If anyone in the clan had any objections to him, it could only be Shen Beimin and his third uncle, the patriarch.
Shen Changjun also remembered that the last time he came to buy a prescription, the negotiation failed, and he thought the matter was over like this, but unexpectedly, gossip about his family spread before it was over.
"So it's them." Shen Changjun said.
"Why, do you know who it is?" Sun didn't expect Shen Changjun to be able to guess who he usually ignores.
"Well, he came to us some time ago, saw our family selling potato chips at the market, wanted our recipe, and threatened us that if we don't give the recipe, we will hide the fact that potatoes are edible. Speak out." Shen Changjun said.
"It's really not a thing." Sun said viciously.
Father Shen continued: "That's right, at first I wanted it for nothing, but after we heard that it was already sold, they said they wanted to buy it too, hmph!"
"Then what happened next?" Sun asked.
Shen Changjun took it over and said, "Oh, if they had come earlier, maybe they would have sold it to them, but they came late, I have already sold Fang Zi to Hao Ke Lou, and signed a buyout contract, so I can't sell it to anyone else. , otherwise even if you breach the contract, you will have to pay ten times the liquidated damages."
"I see." Mrs. Sun nodded.
The village chief said from the side: "Then what is going on with the potato?"
Shen Changjun said: "Sigh, we have known about potatoes for a long time that they are edible, just like sweet potatoes and taro, we have read about them in books, but the reason why we only told about sweet potatoes and taro, but not potatoes, It is because the book says that if potatoes are not eaten properly, they will be poisoned."
"Oh? This is food, how can you be poisoned after eating it?" the village chief said in disbelief.
"This thing can't be eaten raw, it needs to be cooked before it can be eaten, and sprouted potatoes can't be eaten either."
"I see."
"That's right, Uncle Village Chief, my father and I came here today not only to learn about the rumors, but also for this matter. Now that everyone knows about potatoes, they must be digging in the mountains. I need to trouble you to help the big guy Remind me, potatoes are sprouted now, but you must not eat them."
After Shen Changjun finished speaking, he sighed heavily again, and said: "It's my fault too. I was too cautious. I didn't tell this matter earlier. I'm just afraid that people won't believe me if I just open my mouth. I don’t know, but when I met the county magistrate, I thought that the government would come forward and inform everyone, so that big guy would pay attention.”
The village head nodded knowingly, this matter is indeed big or small.
"The village head uncle also knows that the county magistrate came two days ago. Didn't you still see him? Speaking of the potatoes our family grows, the county magistrate also knows about it. This matter is also related to the county magistrate, no To tell you the truth, the potatoes that my family grows are actually the government's experimental fields, which are grown for the imperial court.
"What?" The village head gasped.He met the county magistrate that day, and it was thanks to Shen Zhangjun who introduced him to the county magistrate, otherwise, with his status, how could he talk to the elder.
Although he was told to go down after only a few words, it also made him so excited that he didn't sleep well all night. That's the old man, he actually talked to the old man, can you not be excited!
"Yes, because it is an experimental field, so it is very important, otherwise, why would the county magistrate come to our village, the master Qingtian is very busy.!
"Is this really the government's experimental field? The county magistrate came that day just for your potatoes?" Murakami hurriedly reconfirmed.
"That's not right, otherwise, why would the magistrate come to our village and go to my field to check the situation?"
Snapped!The village head slapped the table fiercely, "These gossipers almost ruined a big event, and you too. For such an important matter, why didn't you say hello in advance? If you ruin the government's affairs, don't mention you, it's just you!" Everyone in our village is to blame." The village head said.
"The lesson from the village chief is that I didn't think carefully about this matter." Shen Changjun had a very good attitude, and he actively admitted his mistake.
"The village head uncle, this matter...!
"You don't have to worry about it, leave it to me, and I will take care of it."
"Then thank you Uncle Village Chief. In fact, if the experimental field can be successfully planted this time, we can plant it ourselves next year. At that time, if the villagers want to plant it, they can buy some seeds from my house and plant it. If you have a full stomach, you can sell it for money, right?"
The village chief sighed in relief, and said, "Your gentleman is still righteous."
The village chief took a look at Shen Qingnian and said sincerely, "Qingnian, you have a good son."
"Hahaha, my gentleman is indeed very good." Father Shen was not modest at all, and a smile almost appeared on his face.
Shen Changjun twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Mr. Zhang, it seems that the Chinese New Year is only a few months away. After the Chinese New Year, you will have to take the entrance examination for children. How are you preparing?"
ah? "Ms. Sun has been listening for a long time, and now that the business is finally finished, she finally has a chance to ask.
"Auntie, I'm still very confident about taking the exam this time." Shen Changjun is not bragging, the original owner's knowledge is still very solid.
He just failed the exam every time because of dizziness.
But for Shen Changjun, the exam is a fart~!
If the original owner was thrown into his previous world and stayed in high school for three years, he wouldn't faint at all.
After the matter was over, the father and son stopped sitting for a long time, and the two left and went home.
Today this matter can be regarded as a satisfactory solution.
When she got home and talked about it with Mrs. He, she felt relieved.
"Master Shen, have you heard that gossip about your family is being circulated in the village now?" The person who spoke was none other than the second neighbor of the Shen family, Aunt Shen. There happened to be an episode today, so she stopped by The restaurant came to look for Ho.
