"Grandpa! Uncle!" The triplets trotted for a while, and the voice was heard before anyone arrived.
The trio seemed to ring in his ears, and Father Shen was so happy that his eyes narrowed.Now there are only him and the old woman in the house, and they are at ease, but a little lonely.It's not that there are no grandchildren, but it's just that the eldest son and the eldest daughter are both grown up, and they are not as fun as Xiaotuanzi, and each has their own affairs to be busy, so they don't have much time to come and accompany them.
Seeing the little baby, Father Shen was very happy, not only the triplets, but almost all the older ones.But the triplets are cute, and there are three in a row. This kind of blessing is not something ordinary people can have, and he likes it more.
Whenever the three little guys circled around, at that moment, Father Shen had no worries and only wanted to enjoy the fun between his grandparents and grandchildren.
Father Shen hugged each of them, and sighed, "Oh, I'm so old, I can't even hug my grandson."
The adults present all sullenly did not speak, and kept slandering in their hearts, this is not a matter of age, okay?Whoever holds them for such a long time will have sore hands, and they don't even look at how solid the triplets are.
After playing around with the triplets for a while, Father Shen got down to business: "Third brother, where is the food?"
"Place it in the main courtyard." Shen Jiahe immediately walked in front, beckoning everyone to follow.
The bullock cart was parked at the stables, Fang Tianlin didn't want to do anything, and the servants could see clearly. A side door was opened between the side room and the side room on the left side of the main courtyard, and it was attached to the wall of the main courtyard and the vegetable garden. A lane was set up, and the driver could drive into the lane from the stable side and go straight to the main courtyard.For this reason, the original door connecting the backyard and the vegetable garden was re-blocked with bricks.The backyard belongs to the residence of the family members. There is a door leading to the outside.
Fang Tianlin didn't think too much about it before. His family's population is simple, and the whole family thinks the main courtyard is too spacious. Why do we need to use the backyard?This was what Xue Guanglin revealed to Shen Jiahe when he visited Shen's house after the housewarming banquet.In order to avoid unnecessary verbal troubles, Fang Tianlin decisively changed his course, instead of going to the backyard, he would go directly to the main courtyard.
Shen Jiahe went to drive, while Fang Tianlin led the others towards the main courtyard.
There is nothing unsuitable to be seen in the main courtyard at present. In the future, Fang Tianlin does not intend to put eye-catching utensils in open places like the kitchen in the main courtyard.
With his hands behind his back, Old Man Shen carefully looked at the increasingly tidy yard, with a flash of admiration in his eyes.Although it is an old house renovation, it does not look much different from the new house.He really didn't expect that such a big change would happen to his family after leaving his hometown.
"Third daughter-in-law, just tell me what you want to eat. Next year, I will grow more with the boss's family. Forget about this year, you can eat whatever we grow." Father Shen doesn't care about anything else, these are all good varieties. The vegetable grains that come out have a better taste than ordinary ones.If this is abandoned because it is not up-to-date, it is fine not to let him know, otherwise he will definitely come to the door and scold them bloody. He doesn't want another second daughter in the family.
Seeing the embarrassment on Fang Tianlin's face, Father Shen immediately added: "Don't worry, there are also two families, the second and fourth, you just take care of yourself."
"Then I won't be too polite, and I will report it to Dad in the spring of next year." Fang Tianlin paused for a moment, and then said, "Father, is there anyone selling fields near Anyang Village?"
"There is no one in Anyang Village for the time being. You can ask the boss in nearby villages, he knows better than me."
Hearing this, Shen Jiahai's smile decreased a bit: "There are some, but it's very scattered."
"Is there a problem with this?" Fang Tianlin thought for a while before asking.Shen Jiahai's expression was obviously wrong, not being able to buy a suitable field near Anyang Village was just a trivial matter, why should he look sad about it?
"Third brothers and sisters, you also know that I can't help much in the food workshop or barbecue shop, so I can do a good job in farming. After the barbecue shop made money, I wanted to buy more fields. Who would have thought that the big farm near Anyang Village Some of the land has fallen into the hands of a few big landlords, and only some sporadic land sales are not appreciated by them, so they are circulated in the market. I am worried, our family’s land insurance may fall into their eyes someday. This is troublesome." Shen Jiahai frowned more and more as he spoke.
Due to the special situation in Guangyan Village, there are no real landlords and squires. There are also tenants, but the proportion is not high. The vast majority of villagers are free farmers, and almost every household owns land.In Anyang Village, it was just the opposite. Tenant farmers accounted for more than half, while free farmers became a minority.
Some of these tenants sold their land for their own reasons, which is nothing to say, but the process of the rest of them losing their land made him sigh after hearing it.No other, just because it is man-made, not their own will.In order to occupy more fields, the landlords and squires really resorted to frequent methods, and it can be said that they used all means.
There are those that tempt people to go astray, such as getting the target person to gamble, or directly engaging in deception. These are all done secretly, and some are directly robbed.They are powerful and powerful, how can the common people bear it?If you don't want your family to be destroyed, then obediently offer up your own land.
Renting the land that originally belonged to the family, dividing nearly half of the fruits of their labor, and not seeing any hope. Just thinking about such days makes people despair.
To be honest, the life here may not be much better than that in Guangyan Village.Although Guangyan Village suffers from water shortages from time to time, as long as there is no severe drought like last year, life is not bad, and more importantly, there are not so many bad things.If it weren't for the favorable climate here, the yield per mu of various crops was higher than that of Guangyan Village, which promoted the development of the handicraft industry in this area and eventually prospered, allowing the tenants to have more sources of income. Many of them would have been without three meals a day. continue.
As soon as Fang Tianlin heard it, he understood that this was an annexation of land, and it had reached a very deep level. In addition, in recent years, there have been continuous disasters in various places. If the new emperor is not capable enough, Jing Dynasty may capsize one day.
Of course, Fang Tianlin would not say such an inference, and it would not do any good except to increase the fear of Father Shen and the others.
"Father, brother, otherwise, you would all build new houses, and at the same time pretend that our family has something to do with Yunzhou City and let it out by accident. In this way, even if someone really takes a fancy to our family's land, they won't be able to figure it out. The power behind the Shen family, they don't dare to take action easily. If they find out after investigation that we have hooked up with the An family, that would be the best. They are not tough people in the backstage, and they will not turn against the Shen family for that little land, and then offend the An family." Fang Tianlin knew that before the incident happened, there was no problem for the Shen family to take advantage of the An family's power, and they could avoid a lot of troubles because of it, but if someone really found fault, the An family might not necessarily stand up for the Shen family.But that's enough, Fang Tianlin never really pinned his hopes on others, and he had to solve all problems by himself in the end.Of course, he will never show off his abilities without using the existing convenient conditions.
The worry on Shen Jiahai's face gradually disappeared.Just like what Fang Tianlin said, they don't own much land, and there's no need for others to make a fuss about such a dispensable property.In the past, the Shen family was still ordinary people, and they didn't have much confidence. If someone with some status really wanted to take away their property, they had no choice but to fight desperately.
It's different now, the Shen family's network has expanded step by step, not to mention Shen Jiahe's house, even Shen Jiahai has known many people, even though they are not of high class, it is not everyone who can treat them as soft persimmons.
Merchants have money and officials have power. As long as the merchants grow a little bigger, the two will naturally combine.
The rapid decline of those wealthy businessmen is mostly not their own problems, but the problems of the officials behind them, which are quickly divided up by other businessmen.
Of course, this does not mean that businessmen have always been in a weak position, it is a game between the two.Businessmen want to use the power of officials, and officials also need the support of businessmen behind them.It is not so easy to be promoted as an official. Many joints need to be opened up. How can we do it without money?Especially when businessmen have reached the level of settling down, ordinary officials are really not taken seriously by them.
Just because the An family members are not good at official careers, it doesn't mean they won't spend money to cultivate scholars who are inclined to their own family.There are so many poor talents, if you cast a wide net, there will always be a harvest.When there are more students sponsored, even if some of them are unfamiliar white-eyed wolves who want to leave Anjia and fly high as soon as their wings harden, or even be ungrateful and beat them back, they have to take it easy and weigh clearly whether such a decision is worth it. not worth.An Jia doesn't just point at them to make a living, if they go too far, be careful not to be pulled down by An Jia.
It's a pity that the head of the An family who has such a forward-looking vision was born a bit late, and has not cultivated many high-ranking officials until now, and none of them are in Yunzhou City. There are only one or two small officials who can directly help the An family , so that they had to cooperate with Qian Tongzhi.However, the benefits have already been revealed. Qian Tongzhi didn't dare to ask for money too much, let alone take the money and do nothing. The cooperation between the two parties is quite happy.
Among the Shen family, besides Shen Jiahe, the richest person is Father Shen.He doesn't need to pay the capital, he can share the money from the potato chip workshop and the barbecue shop.The two elders don't have any extravagant hobbies. For people with the same wealth, their lives are extremely simple. They have saved a few hundred taels at least. It is no problem to build a house with two or three entrants in Anyang Village.
Shen Jiahai was going to be a lot nervous, but he went all out.He knew it well, the financial tension was only temporary, after a year or so, the family property would become more and more solid, and with a beautiful house there, the number of people who dared to take advantage of the Shen family would be reduced a lot.
The stables were not far from the main courtyard, and just as they finished discussing this matter, Shen Jiahe stopped at the door of the warehouse in his ox cart.
Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe both wore short cotton jackets suitable for work at home, so they didn't need to go back to the room to change clothes, they could directly carry things.
There was not much grain in the cart, only a few hundred catties, and Fang Tianlin and the others moved it out after two rounds.
This time, Father Shen and the Shen family's kelp were very complicated, such as pickled vegetables, dried bacon, etc., as long as there were some at home, they basically brought some over. Fang Tianlin and Shen's Heguang spent a lot of time cleaning them up.
The trio seemed to ring in his ears, and Father Shen was so happy that his eyes narrowed.Now there are only him and the old woman in the house, and they are at ease, but a little lonely.It's not that there are no grandchildren, but it's just that the eldest son and the eldest daughter are both grown up, and they are not as fun as Xiaotuanzi, and each has their own affairs to be busy, so they don't have much time to come and accompany them.
