North and South groceries

The planning of the five hectares of land also took a lot of thinking. Where and how big the sheep house should be built, and how many pieces of pasture should be planted, a charter had to be drawn up in advance.

This morning, after Luo Yong finished making a batch of soap, Peng Er came over to replace him. Luo Yong saw that the house was not busy at this time, so he rode his Yan'er to Xinde's. Five hectares went.

Today, Wulang rested and was looking at the grocery store with Si Niang at the moment. The younger ones were doing their homework while looking at the store. Even Liu Lang and Qiniang could hear and see. The tuition fee is really worth paying.

"Sanlang, where are you going?" Lin Wulang was helping Xu Weng compost on the piece of grass next to Xu's guest house.

As for the brothers of the Xu family, they are still plowing on the slopes at the moment. Earlier, Luo used Xu and the others to plow on the land that they could not use up for a while. The brothers saw that there was still a lot of wasteland, so they wanted to plant more. For a long time, the cultivated land on the slopes has been sown every day, and batches of beans have been planted.

This Lin Wulang is a hardworking person. When he is not busy, he often helps the Xu family with some work. When the two of them are busy, the Xu family will also help.

Probably because of this, the couple get along very well with the Xu family now.

"I'll go over there to have a look." Luo Yong stopped Yan Erfei by the side of the road.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Lin Wulang said.

"It's nothing, you are busy with your work." Luo Yong is no longer a three-year-old child, and he still needs someone to accompany him on this road.

"If you want, go with him, Wulang. There are few people there, so you may encounter wild animals." Xu Weng also said the same.

"Have you accumulated so much fat in the past few days?" Luo Yong chatted with Na Xu Weng.

"That's right, just the small vegetable field at the back, it's not going to be used up at all." Xu Weng laughed.

"Save it up, and in the future pick it up to fatten the beans." Luo Yong also said.

"Yes." Xu Weng put down his shovel and took a rest, then asked Luo Yong, "Do you really plan to use the five hectares of land over there to herd sheep?"

"Xu Weng thought it was inappropriate?" Luo Yong knew that he probably wanted to say something to himself.

"It's not inappropriate, but a thousand sheep are too many, and there are few people there, so I'm afraid they will be picked up by wild animals." Xu Weng stood by the dung pile with a shovel and talked to Luo Yong: "No If you raise less goats, set aside some land and find some farmers."

"Villager?" Luo Yong was not familiar with this name, and after searching in his mind, he realized that "crowner" actually means tenant.

Only the farmers at this time were somewhat different from the tenants of later generations. Many farmers were directly subordinated to the power of the big landlords, and did not pay taxes or submit to corvee. Of course, there were cases where they simply rented land.

Luo Yong thought about it, and felt that renting out the land would save trouble and worry than running it by himself.The land he got allotted this time is fairly fertile, and if he manages it well, within a few years, it should also become a piece of fertile land.

"The farmer doesn't need it. If anyone wants to plant it, I can rent out some of the land." Luo Yong guessed that Xu Weng might have the same intention.

Although Luo Yong has now lent them the wasteland on the slope to plant, this is not a long-term solution. If his eucommia trees are expanded in the future, or if he wants to plant other crops or trees, their land will naturally be lost. Returning, relatively speaking, renting land is much more stable, especially if there is a contract.

Xu Weng really had the same intention. The business of their guest house is doing well, and they consume a lot of food, vegetables and meat every day. Now they only grow vegetables by themselves, and they have to spend money to buy all the meat and food.

They have a large family, and in two years, these grandchildren will all grow up and be able to work. It would be even better if they could rent a field nearby to grow crops.If you want to rent a field, whoever rents it is not as good as renting the field of Luo Sanlang's family.

That night, after a whole day of busy work, after the guests in the hall gradually dispersed, Xu Weng told his sons about this matter.

After hearing this, the Xu brothers also thought it was a good thing.On the second day, when the brothers went to the slope to cultivate the land, they told the matter to the other fellows. Some were tempted and some were hesitant. If they wanted to rent land here, they would inevitably have to bring their family members over. Moving is not a trivial matter, and the wishes of the family must also be considered.

Wang Dang's wife, Ahe, was also very moved when she heard about this, but Wang Dang told her no way, they had better not rent land here, because they are not natives of Lishi County, and if the local government is strict one day After checking, they will be sent back. What will happen to the crops in the field?

"It may not be that day." Ahe was still a little unwilling: "Why can't we live a stable life with fields and land?"

"Even if you rent the field, you may not be safe. I feel uneasy. How can I live a safe life? Let's sell some goods in a down-to-earth manner. This business can earn more than farming." Wang Dang Persuade.

"Can it be the same?" Ah He just wanted a piece of land, planted some crops, raised a few pigs, and raised a flock of chickens.

"When we earn enough money, we will go back to Dinghu County to buy a field to plant." Wang Dang said.

"I don't know what day it will be." Recently, they sent their eldest son to school again, and the Shuxiu they gave away may not be a big deal in Luo's house, but it is a big deal for them The expenses, as well as those pens, inks, papers and inkstones on weekdays, cost money everywhere.

If he doesn't go to school, at Wang Shao's age, he can help his family a lot, like those teenagers in Xipo Village, who also help their family plow the land and make tofu.

Fortunately, Wang Shao of his family is also serious about studying, unlike the kid in the Lin family who doesn't like reading at all.

I heard that the Lin family had a quarrel over this matter. The old lady of the Lin family said that if the child doesn’t like reading, then he doesn’t have to read it. Lin Dalang and his wife refused to agree to anything, regardless of whether he likes reading or not, they will drive him away. Go to school to learn to read.

"Sister, it's boring to go to school, sir can beat people with bamboo boards." In the courtyard of Luo's house, Luo Wulang was chatting with Luo Siniang at the moment.

This kid is also somewhat clever, knowing that Luo Siniang has been displeased with Luo Siniang recently because he can't go to school, and to put it bluntly, he is a little jealous.

"Really?" Si Niang swung her small knife once and for all.

"Yes." Goro said.

"Have you been beaten by him?" Siniang glanced at him.

"I wasn't beaten, but Lin Rong was beaten." Wu Lang said immediately.

"Why was he beaten?" Lin Rong's fellow Luo Siniang knew that he was one of the most clever ghosts in the village.

"He didn't do his homework when he went home, and the teacher asked him to recite, but he couldn't recite it." Goro said with a smile.

"Can you recite it after beating?" Si Niang rolled her eyes.

"Yes." Goro said heartlessly.

After a while, Liu Lang and Qiniang rushed to the backyard, ran to the soap room, hugged Luo Yong's thigh and cried, saying that Si Niang had beaten them.

"Teach them how to count, but if they refuse to learn, I just hit them lightly." Feeling guilty, Si Niang ran to the door, muttering while watching.

"Let me see where it happened." Luo squatted down to comfort the two little ones.

"Hands..." Qiniang said pitifully, sucking her snot and tears in her eyes, this girl can also fight with Liu Lang, but she will definitely only be a crying bag when she meets Si Niang.

"Does it hurt?" Luo Yong took her little hand and looked at it, but he couldn't see anything.

"It hurts..." Qiniang felt aggrieved.

"Really, I don't think it's very popular." Luo Yong read it over and over again.

The girl Qiniang thought for a while and said, "It hurts a bit, but it's not very painful."

Luo Yong laughed when he heard this: "It's wrong to hit someone, sister, I'll talk to her later."

"Sister is so fierce." Liu Lang also complained there.

"Why is she so fierce?" Luo Yong hugged his soft body and asked.

"Say I don't know how to count." This made Liu Lang feel a little guilty.

"Brother will teach you guys next time, great." Luo reached out and stroked the soft hair on his head.

"Hmm." The two younger ones nodded in agreement.

After finally sending Liu Lang and Qiniang away, Luo Yong beckoned for Si Niang to come in, and the girl dawdled towards her while still looking at Luo Yong.

"Hold out your hand." Luo Yong said to her.

"..." Si Niang stretched out her right palm upwards, knowing that she was about to be beaten.

"!" Luo Yong patted her palm, and said, "The other hand."

"..." Siniang sniffed, then stretched out her left hand.

"!" Luo Yong patted her left hand again, and said, "Don't hit anyone again next time." Then he let her go.

Luo Siniang raised her sleeve and wiped her nose. In fact, Luo's two beatings didn't hurt at all, but she still felt very sad. It seems that beating someone is really not good.

Fortunately, my brother didn't beat her in front of those two little ones, otherwise her prestige as a sister would be ruined.

But Siniang didn't know, Luo Yong actually felt distressed seeing her slumped shoulders as she walked out of the soap making room.

In Luo Yong's view, Si Niang has always been very sensible, she can help the family a lot at a young age, she cooks the meals, she is the main watcher of the grocery store, and the two young children in the family are mainly hers. It is because of this that Luo Yong is reluctant to talk about her.

This didn't even do anything to her, so I felt sorry for myself first.

At this time, he didn't feel at all that he was a time traveler who occupied the magpie's nest. He was Luo Sanlang, brothers and sisters of the same mother as the children of the Luo family.
