Fast time to the scumbag

After Zhang Ran left, Mrs. Cai and the others came out. Mrs. Cai looked at Uncle Zhang with some doubts: "Didn't you say that the family will be separated after the autumn harvest is over? Now that it is so urgent, who will do the work of the autumn harvest?"

Uncle Zhang's face was unpredictable: "When we separated, we made it clear that after the autumn harvest, we will officially divide into two families. Some of the food must be divided between them. Why don't they work? Zhang Ran can't delay this matter, wait. He knows what the deed of sale is, and he will definitely regret it, so this matter must be finalized, and when he leaves with Mr. Qi, even if he regrets later, it will be useless."

Xiao Cai felt a little pity: "Hey, why does Mr. Qi look down on our daughter, otherwise our family can follow the popular food and drink spicy food."

Zhang Sanshu scolded: "You ignorant and stupid woman, what do you know, this kind of rich and powerful family, when the mistress enters the door in the future, what will happen to these little servants who have signed the deed of prostitution?"

Xiao Cai curled her lips, thinking that who doesn't know who's thinking, if Mr. Qi really likes their daughter, he can't do it, he can refuse, it's not like she doesn't know the secrets of so many families who spoil their concubines and destroy their wives.

Zhang Ran's cousin looked jealous, obviously she was much better than Zhang Ran, why did Mr. Qi fall in love with a brother, but turned a blind eye to him?

Zhang Ran's third cousin didn't think too much about it. Anyway, no matter what, he won't lose him. Maybe, after the division of the family is over, he can marry a wife. The lady sitting in the sedan chair I saw was fine. Hey, it’s all my father’s fault. I couldn’t pass the exam, so I was afraid that my son would pass the exam. Others said he is not as good as my son. If I can take the provincial exam, I will definitely be a scholar. , when the time comes, you will be able to marry that young lady.

The family in the yard here has their own thoughts, while Zhang Ran has found the uncle's family over there. After telling the uncle the whole story, the uncle does not agree with Zhang Ran signing the contract of sale at all. He often does carpentry work for people in the town. Son, I know something, so I told Zhang Ran about the various disadvantages behind selling.

In the end Zhang Ran had no choice but to say: "Uncle, I know that you have never separated your family, but you are afraid that Mrs. Cai will let you go out of the house. This time with me, they will not do it so badly. When the time comes, your family will no longer have to leave the house." It will always be much easier to support them. As for me, you don’t have to worry about it. This is the best way I can think of. Otherwise, who do you think they will marry me to? Can I control them? What if they don't let me marry and stay at home as a free laborer?"

Uncle Zhang was silent for a moment, he could only accept this fact, he waved his hand, and asked the eldest brother and the younger cousin to call the clan elders and the village head respectively, and then he took Zhang Ran and Li Shilin to the house together, As he walked, he said to Zhang Ran: "In the future, if you have anything to do, you must tell your uncle. Since Mr. Qi wants to settle here, you have to be more or less concerned about what the villagers think. If something really happens, your uncle will fight it out. Give you justice."

Zhang Ran nodded, but he knew in his heart that if they really met a rich family who came to settle in the countryside, they would not care what the villagers thought. Besides, how many villagers were willing to offend rich people with uncle, so uncle The words are just a consolation, but of course he is different from Qi Rui, and if it weren't for Qi Rui, he would not have sold himself.

Anyway, my uncle will know that his choice is correct in the future. As for now, if I tell him, he won't believe it.

When Zhang Ran and the others returned to the yard, the clan elders and the village chief hadn't arrived yet. Seeing them, Mrs. Cai snorted, but Uncle Zhang smiled, and discussed with them about the division of the family in a serious manner.

After the clan elders and the village chief arrived, Zhang Ran blinked at Qi Rui who was following behind the village chief. Qi Rui smiled slightly and did not speak. The clan elders present met Qi Rui under the introduction of the village chief. After a while, but because the occasion was wrong, he didn't tell Qi Ruiduo, so he turned his attention to Uncle Zhang.

Because it has been discussed just now, Uncle Zhang directly handed over the written separation list to the village head. The village head is literate, so he read it to everyone immediately. After negotiation, all the family properties were divided into three shares. Uncle Zhang One, Zhang Sanshu one, Zhang Ran’s father’s one is given to Cai, Cai wants to live with his youngest son, so this one also belongs to Zhang Sanshu, and the current house also belongs to Zhang Sanshu, but Uncle Zhang’s family can live in it. After the autumn harvest, in addition, after the separation of the family, Uncle Zhang didn't need to take care of the Cai family except for a certain amount of food every year.

The clan elders have no objections. It is not uncommon for their villages to be given away without giving anything. Now, although the fields that Uncle Zhang’s family got are all inferior fields, and Cai’s obviously took away a lot of other things, it’s still worth it anyway. If you have something, it is better to divide it now than when they earn more. The Zhang family on both sides have no objection, so the village chief gave a testimony. As for Zhang Ran, they have been selectively forgotten Well, my brother who is going to get married sooner or later, is he still expecting to get something?

After the family division, the clan elders and the village chief wanted to leave. As for food, you can't count on Cai and the others, but before they got up, Qi Rui took out a contract of sale and said to Uncle Zhang: "I I just bought an old house in the hands of the village head, and I will go to the yamen to go through other procedures tomorrow, but now there must be someone to clean it up, so, can I buy him now?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Uncle Zhang, which made Uncle Zhang very embarrassed. After a while, the village chief and elders turned their heads to look at Zhang Ran, frowned. Zhang Ran smiled, picked up the Ink pad, put fingerprints on the deed of sale, and then the elders of the court clan said: "I do it voluntarily."

Qi Rui put away the deed of sale, took out five taels of silver from his purse, and handed it to Uncle Zhang. In this way, it looked more like Uncle Zhang had sold Zhang Ran. Mrs. Cai withdrew her outstretched hand without noticing anything wrong, Uncle Zhang Instead, he saw the eyes of the clan elders and the village chief looking at him, but the money had already been received, so he could only curl up his sleeves in embarrassment, and then put the money away. As for what others thought, his reputation was not good anyway. That's it.

Zhang Ran went back to the house to pack some clothes, and Mrs. Lin silently followed behind him to help. After Zhang Ran came out, she stood beside Qi Rui and said naturally, "Let's go."

Qi Rui picked up the bag in his hand, opened it in front of everyone, and flipped through the clothes inside. They were basically old clothes that had been patched and sewn again and again, and they turned white from washing. Qi Rui threw away the bag, turned and faced Zhang Ran said, "I don't want these anymore. I'll buy you new ones later." Then he took Zhang Ran away and even let everyone see him helping Zhang Ran into the carriage.

Zhang Ran's cousin bit her lip jealously, she almost got angry when she stared at Zhang Ran, Uncle Zhang's family felt a little relieved, at least now it seems that Mr. Qi is a good person.

After the clan elders and the village chief left, Mrs. Cai immediately went into the kitchen and piled up the food in front of her, leaving only enough food for Uncle Zhang’s family. There was nothing left, and then she shouted to Xiao Cai outside the kitchen: "Get out and cook, this family is divided, and you still expect to eat a big pot of rice? Hurry up, take our food back to the house, so as not to mess with it in the future." mix."

Zhang Ran and Qi Rui, who were sitting in the carriage, arrived at the old house bought by Qi Rui in a short time. At this moment, every household came back to cook dinner. When they saw the carriage on the road, they all talked in a low voice. Soon, Zhang Ran The story of their family spread throughout the village, and everyone knew that Zhang Ran was sold by Uncle Zhang to a rich family as a servant.

Because of Zhang Ran's previous personality, he had no friends since he was a child. Now that he heard that he was serving as a servant, many people were surprised. They didn't understand how the young master from a rich family fell in love with Zhang Ran. Obviously other people in the village are much better than Zhang Ran, and some people even think that Qi Rui might just buy Zhang Ran back and let him work.

However, Zhang Ran and Qi Rui, who are standing in their new home at the moment, don't care what other people are thinking at all. What they care about most now is today's dinner. This house has been unoccupied for a long time, so there is a lot of dust and the sky It was late again, and the two decided to clean up the kitchen and bedroom first, and leave the rest until tomorrow.

Fortunately, Qi Rui had already thought about it before he came, and his carriage was big enough, so he bought all the basic daily necessities in advance. The two of them cleaned the kitchen first, and then Zhang Ran brought in the pots, pans, food and seasonings. As soon as he was about to cook, Qi Rui decided to take advantage of this time to clean up the bedroom.

After Zhang Ran cooked the meal, Qi Rui also cleaned up the bedroom. Both of them were a little tired, so after eating, they simply washed up and fell asleep hugging each other. Of course, because Zhang Ran was still keeping his filial piety, they just Simply sleep.

Early the next morning, after Zhang Ran woke up, he saw Qi Rui's new clothes beside the bed. Obviously, they were prepared by Qi Rui for him. Zhang Ran unfolded the clothes. Zhang Ran felt comfortable and fit the same style of Chinese clothes, but it was not convenient for him to work.
