Depressed little landlord

The aftermath of the scorching sun at the end of summer is still terrifying, and Xiangjia's iced drinks are still as popular as before.

Lin Xuan and the others have finally finished their work of plundering the land in the early stage, and now they can relax a little bit, and what happened in the small town naturally did not miss out, Xiang Qing will tell them as soon as possible, and let them know Not to mention that it was hard to wait until the villagers finished their work for a while, he couldn't wait to come to the village to ask everyone for help.

He can feel at ease sooner if he gets married with Qi Ling sooner!

So as soon as the villagers recovered, they started to help build the houses again. Although the Qi family was worried that the villagers would not build well, after all, they were not as familiar with those who specialized in building houses, but they had no objection when they saw Qing Qiling. , It's not easy for them to go to say anything, and they just mentioned this sentence.

In fact, the villagers are quite happy. Let’s put it in the past. They are also very happy to have work during the slack season, which proves that they have income. So everyone doesn’t mind at all, but is very happy. Even the Lizigou side The young adults also spontaneously ran to help.

Seeing that Lin Xuan and the other villagers didn't say anything, Xiang Qing didn't refuse anyone who came, even if he saw that Liu Da, who had trouble with his legs and feet but still had a lot of strength, silently followed behind their village chief, he didn't object, anyway, he My plan is to build a large house with more people and faster speed, so that I can finish the work before the deadline, which is even more perfect.

During this period of time, he was completely running between the town and the village. Fortunately, he had his own carriage, and the speed was quite good. One trip a day was more than enough, but Qi Ling felt sorry for him and wanted to take him over to deliver materials. so that Xiang Qing could concentrate on the restaurant, but Xiang Qing would not let him say anything.

How could Xiang Qing be willing to let him run like this all day?In the end, no one was reluctant to part with the other, which caused the two of them to almost have a cold war. In the end, Lin Xuan said that he and Xu Yang would help take care of the house, and let Xiang Qing take care of the restaurant's business in the town, so that Qi Ling didn't have to worry. He died, and the two of them stopped their fire.

The days were busy and fulfilling. Although the crops in the field were somewhat wilted due to the scorching sun and lack of rain, everyone had prepared fertility in advance and worked hard to fill the field with water. Even after being exposed to the sun during the day, the They can get enough water in the morning and evening, so they are growing well, which makes everyone feel at ease when they are busy building houses, and have more expectations for the autumn harvest in the future, and the smiles on their faces are endless Can't live.

I haven't let go of the word yet, and the two-season planting has not yet been promoted. The rice harvested this autumn is completely my own. Even if it is a little less, it will make people happy, not to mention seeing the seedlings growing in the field. How not to make them happy from the bottom of their hearts?Therefore, they are even more grateful to the Lin family, but Lin Xuan and his family can't help much at ordinary times. Now that Xiang Qing, as a friend, needs help, they naturally won't shirk it and instead work harder.

The effect is also immediate, the house is almost the same every day, Xiang Qing is also very grateful to Lin Xuan and Xu Yang when he is happy, the most direct expression is that now he goes to the village every three days, and every time there are big bags, all kinds of snacks and meat.Although Lin Xuan's fishpond has also been stocked with fish, they haven't grown so fast, and the village doesn't often kill pigs to buy meat. The chickens at home have been deliberately cultivated by Lin Xuan. Several batches of chickens from different periods, large and small There are more than 100 chickens, but it is impossible to kill chickens every day, and he is building a house, so how can friends help them out?

So most of the vegetables I bought were for Lin Xuan and the others, and a small part were for the villagers who came to do things. Although the Lin family would treat the villagers to a meal every few days, there was not much meat in it, but there was enough oil in it. , everyone has a good impression of him as the owner of the house, so that when he and Qi Ling move in, there will be less estrangement, and the villagers will accept them better. I have to say that Xiang Qing's approach is quite effective.

When the villagers were busy after dinner and nagging that Xiang Qing was good, Lin Xuan gave Qing Bi a thumbs up in his yard and Xiang Qing smiled modestly.

Xu Yang glanced at him, and said with a little distaste, "I'm not in a hurry to go back after staying today for so long."

Xiang Qing quickly waved his hand: "No way, I'll leave right away or Xiaoling will be worried. I just haven't talked to you guys very much recently, so come and have a look. If there's nothing wrong, I'll go back. Xun'er needs What to tell brother, next time brother will bring it to you."

Lin Xun, who was a little taller, looked over and shook his head, and then paused for a second: "The paper is almost gone."

"Then how about giving brother an extra chicken next time?" Xiang Qing deliberately teased him.

Lin Xun bowed his head in thought and nodded, "I'll sell you a chicken next time."

Xiang Qing smiled happily when he heard this, patted his head and said happily, "Then I will have to choose the big one then."

Lin Xun obediently let him touch it for a while, then shook his head gently, broke free and continued to practice his calligraphy with his head down. There was an ice basin in the corner of the hall, and the temperature in the room was not very high. Recently, he would practice at home for a long time before going out. Playing, the family saw that he was so self-conscious, every day when Xu Yang got up, he would replace the basin in the room so that he could stay more comfortably.

This is also something that only a few people in the family know. After all, Lin Xuan and his room have never been in except for the butler Hua. Few people know that they made it, and occasionally everyone thinks that the cold drink they drink is from Xiang Qing.

"Well...has anything happened recently?" After teasing the children, Xiang Qing turned back to look at the two friends, hesitated for a moment, and then asked out loud.

Lin Xuan and Xu Yang looked at each other, and soon understood what he was asking, and shook his head at the same time, Lin Xuan smiled and said: "There is no movement for the time being." As he spoke, he pouted outside, "They really insisted, every day in such a hot day Then stare at them, and I have convinced them."

Xiang Qing frowned: "Uncle Zhang, why didn't they drive him away?"

Xu Yang poured some water for him, and said slowly: "What are you driving away? They come whenever they want, as long as they don't hinder us from doing things."

"Actually, that's fine too," Lin Xuan said with a smile, "at least we can prevent them from doing other tricks."

Xiang Qing shook his head: "It's good that you know what's going on, but has Manager Gu come here recently?"

"I've been here once, but I didn't say anything. What's the origin of that person? Could it be someone who came later? After all, you've been away from home for so long, so it's okay if you don't know him."

Now back to Xu Yang looking at Xiang Qing, Xu Yang raised his hand and smoothed the lock of hair that he accidentally fell behind his ear, Lin Xuan didn't even hide for a moment with a calm face, but looked at Xiang Qing in embarrassment. He hurriedly picked up the cup and filled it with water.

Xu Yang didn't care, just looked at Lin Xuan and replied with a smile: "No, although we left, it's not difficult to know the news over there. It's not that there are managers there with the surname Gu, and there are also newcomers. But it’s hard to say if this person came from another place... I think some capable and smart people in the town now probably understand.”

"But I haven't figured out the details yet." Xiang Qing suddenly realized, "No wonder I said that I seem to have calmed down a lot recently...Since this is the case, I can feel more at ease. If the money is not enough, just say it, and we can't let outsiders look down on us."

Lin Xuan now understood what they said, and felt a little relieved. Although he looked calm on the surface before, he was actually somewhat worried. After all, he hadn't fully figured out the matter, so he wasn't completely sure. But after accumulating the matter of money during this period and Xiang Qingqiling's frank help, I believe this is not a problem.

Afterwards, Xiang Qing and Xu Yang Linxuan said a few more words, then got up and planned to go back to the town. When he stepped out of the gate, a gust of hot air rushed towards him, making him want to turn back for a moment, but he thought of the town waiting for him to go back. He just touched the goosebumps on the back of his hand due to the temperature difference, walked through the yard in two or three steps and went out directly into the carriage, holding the bamboo tube with ice cubes in it suggested by Lin Xuan, heaved a sigh of relief, and then made a sound Let the guys out there head back to town.

When passing by his house, he just raised the curtains to look at it, and by the way, everyone said hello when they saw his carriage. Looking at the house that already had some models, Xiang Qing was very happy.

The business in the town is still going smoothly, and the daily income is also very comfortable, and the life of my friend is just as good. I have asked before, and the things in the field are also growing well.

Everything is moving in the right direction——

Everyone is thinking and looking forward to it.

Time slipped to the end of August again. The crops in the field are growing steadily and tall, and they look very energetic. It is estimated that they will start to bloom in a short time. The villagers are so happy when they see it, and they wake up early every morning. I have to walk around my house before I am willing to come back. After eating something in a hurry, I go to work at Xiang's house again. Just walking around like this will give me the energy to work for a day.

Until the crops in the field started to bloom and the Xiang family's house was built seven to eighty-eight, Xiang Qing still came here from time to time, and sometimes brought Qi Ling with him. Everyone was very happy to see each other.Although some trivial things still happen in the village, it is generally normal and stable.

It was only at the beginning of September that people came to the village suddenly, and the busy people were stunned. They stopped what they were doing and watched from a distance with curiosity and fear.

The village head was also a little timid, but as the head of a village, he couldn't hide behind, so he bit the bullet and went forward.Lala rolled up her sleeves because of her busy work, and with a stiff smile, she stepped forward and asked, "The officials came from... a long way away, I don't know why... Well, what's the matter?" I wanted to say A few words of official language, he had heard the books and characters that his grandson learned from the Lin family several times before, and he also secretly learned a little bit, but he was nervous and afraid that his tongue would become knotted, and in the end he decided to speak according to the old words.

"I also hope that the officials will forgive me. The younger ones don't know how many adults are coming, so they are not prepared at all. The younger ones will let the family prepare food and tea as soon as possible. Please, the officials."

It's no wonder they were afraid, the people who came were indeed dressed in official clothes, with knives pinned to their waists, and their faces were full of vicious eyes, which made these ordinary people feel timid when they saw the clothes This will naturally be more scary.

The three yamen servants looked at the thin middle-aged man in front of them, and the leader looked at the more majestic yamen servant with thick eyebrows, ignored him and said loudly: "There is no need for those, we are just following orders, and we will leave when we are done. Zixuan of the Lin family has not paid the tax and silver overdue, flouting the laws and regulations, and now respects the magistrate's order and temporarily takes him into custody pending trial. Moreover, if he fails to pay the silver on time, it violates the original land contract, and the small lake and other places in the contract will be taken back immediately."

There was a sudden silence when the words fell, and before other people could react, the man's cold eyes scanned the people present, and he said again gloomyly: "Those who violate the order will be punished with the same punishment."

Then, ignoring some of the feet that silently retracted because of these words, they looked straight at the Lin family's courtyard, and raised their chins towards the two people behind them, "Go and bring people up."

"Yes!"

"Wait a moment!"
