A scholar becomes a landlord

What's wrong with being a family and having children? To win the trust of the master, you can get monthly money and rewards every month. People make better choices.

"Yes, thank you sister Xiaoxue for your reminder."

Lixia and Liqiu saved up the reward money. They put the money under their pillows and touched it every night when they went to sleep. If they didn't touch it for a day, they couldn't sleep.

They have never had so much money, and it is all their own. They no longer have to worry about being taken away by their parents and brothers. They can buy whatever they want, and they can save it if they don’t buy it.This is their money, and no one can take it away, even if their parents come.

They are already servants of the Wei family, and their lives are in the hands of their master.And at the beginning, they were sold as death contracts, because only in this way could their parents get more money.

So the body contract in Wei Le's hands is of course a death contract, the kind that cannot be redeemed.But I heard from Sister Xiaoxue that the master is a very generous person, as long as he is willing, the master will return the contract of sale to them when they are old and let them out of the guard house.

But as sister Xiaoxue said, why did you leave?How nice it is to live in Wei Zhai, with food and clothing, and such a beautiful house to live in.As for the parents and brothers, they had nothing to do with them on the day they were sold.

Since they don't care about them, why should I keep thinking about them!It is worthy of them to exchange their lives for a few sons.

The servants who signed the deed of life will have a sense of proportion in beating and scolding. After all, the other party will be a good citizen after a few years, and they are also afraid that the other party's family will come to the door.But people who signed the death contract are different. Whether they live or die depends on what the master says, and the government doesn't care.

The traffickers also reminded them, but they signed the death contract without even hesitation. If this is the case, why bother with such family members who don't care about their lives.

Sister Xiaoxue is right, it's not their fault that they don't like themselves, as long as they love themselves.In the future, I will always find someone who is willing to like them. Now as long as I work hard in Wei Zhai, there will be many good days in the future!

Moreover, the young master treats them so well, even better than their parents. If they think about them, they might as well think about the young master, and think about how to take good care of the young master, so that he can live comfortably!

So, without knowing it, Li Xia and Li Qiu began to change on the road of being loyal to Wei Le.Like Xiaoxue and the others, they put Wei Le in the highest position, no one can compare.

"Lixia, fetch water."

Wei Le picked up the empty kettle, but unexpectedly the water on the stove boiled dry.

"Master, come right away."

Li Xia came in with a pot of mountain spring water, and replaced the empty copper pot on the stove.He also carefully added some charcoal to the kang, and the fire in the kang burned even more vigorously.

"Okay, you can go out."

Wei Le kept his eyes on the book, and said to her in a gentle tone.

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Li Xia took the empty pot out of the study.

As soon as she left the study room, the cold outside immediately hit her.Li Xia shrinks her neck, although the weather in the north is colder than that in the south, but she wears thick cotton padded clothes, sleeps with firewood to burn the kang, in fact, it is more comfortable than the winter in the south.The cold in the north is clean, but the cold in the south is gloomy and cold. In addition, they used to barely have a ragged cotton jacket, which didn't keep them warm. They had to work non-stop every day. Only in this way could they keep their bodies warm.

Compared with the past, this winter is particularly warm, and it is the warmest winter they have ever lived.

The two are now learning embroidery from Xiaoxue. In this regard, they are both talented. There is no problem in making clothes. Embroidery is very ordinary, so Wei Le's clothes are still made by Xiaoxue, and they will be themselves or Wei Zhai. For others, Wei Le doesn't need them to be responsible.

Although they were very willing to make clothes for Wei Le, but their craftsmanship was not good, so they had to work hard in other areas.Cooking has become a skill they have studied, not to mention quite effective.

Although they only cook the dishes researched by Xiaoxue, the taste they make is also very good, comparable to the cooks in small restaurants outside.

For the sake of their hard work, Wei Le said that after the end of the new year, they would increase their monthly payment from one hundred cash to two hundred cash.It was still in the trial period before, so the monthly fee was a little less.

The two had hope and worked harder.Although the monthly payment is a little less now, Sister Xiaoxue said that their monthly payment was not high before, and they all increased little by little.There are also red envelopes for rewards during Chinese New Year and holidays. In fact, the monthly money is more than that in the homes of wealthy families. Although there are more things to do than them, but in fact, it is not tiring after getting used to it. It is much easier than doing farm work. up.

In addition to being a little complicated, in their opinion, it is really not tiring at all!So Lixia and Liqiu worked very hard, took over all the chores from Xiaoxue, let Daxue concentrate on raising the baby, and Xiaoxue concentrated on taking care of the kitchen, and they took care of all the chores.

Wei Le and Yi Feng's clothes, as well as Wei Fan's clothes, were all washed by them.Anyway, hot water is used, unlike previous years when I washed at home in cold water to save firewood, or simply did not change clothes all winter.So the laundry and cleaning were too simple, but the two of them didn't clean very well at first, and Xiaoxue scolded them by their ears.

Later, with Xiaoxue's teaching, the cleaning is very clean now, inside and out, and I clean it when I have time. Wei Le also said with a smile that now even the New Year's cleaning is saved.

Everyone laughed when they thought about it, didn't they!

The house and the outside are so clean, there is really no need for a big cleaning.For this reason, Wei Le rewarded them with a tael of silver as a reward to let them work hard, and there will be more rewards in the future.

If you want the horses to run, you have to feed them grass, Wei Le knows this truth very well.What's more, he combined candy with a stick. If he did well, he would be rewarded, and if he did something wrong, he would be punished.Even though he usually doesn't like to manage people, he is always managed by the steward Jin, but in fact everyone in the family is most afraid of him, so there is no need to worry that they will betray when the people in the Wei house come in. Wei Le's method is the best.

Look at the Zhuangzi of the Wei family and the Zhuangzi of the Yi family. Since he took over, no one has dared to play tricks on the books. The accounts are clear and clear. There is a lot of income every year. Together, they can be bought in the capital. It's a house.

It's just that Wei Le doesn't like to show off, so no one other than Wei Le and Yi Feng knows how much Wei Zhai's annual income is.Even the emperor did not make detailed accounts, only an approximate amount.

These money Wei Le were exchanged for gold and silver, and placed in the dark wall of Wei's house.Fortunately, with the help of Yi Feng, the dark wall was redone. Now all the dark walls add up, which is almost the same as a small warehouse. There is more space in it, and they are all replaced with gold and silver. Wei Le's eyes were blinded.

Of course, the little gold and silver he had saved was much worse than that of the rich and powerful families in the capital, but these were hard earned by him and Yi Feng, and they truly belonged to their own silver and gold.He didn't need to compare with those people in the capital. Besides, although they earned more, they actually spent more. It is estimated that the money saved every year is not as much as he and Yi Feng!

After the gold and silver were deposited, Wei Le and Yi Feng quietly retreated out.The mechanism he knows is to create a hidden wall so that others can't see it, or dig a small trap to trap prey. Compared with those time travelers who are burdened with space and know everything about music, chess, calligraphy, painting and medicine, he This technology is not enough to see.

But Wei Le is already very satisfied. Although he doesn't know much, it happens to be practical!The original owner also left him with his own good memories, which is a great wealth.

"The tunnel has almost been dug, and I will put some more grain in the tunnel later."

Yi Feng showed Wei Le a blueprint, Wei Le looked at it for a while and wrote down the route, then returned to Yi Feng.

"After the tunnel is built, you can burn this blueprint!"

Wei Le felt that staying was an unstable factor, and it would be hard for him to say if someone found out.

"Ah."

Knowing that Wei Le has a good memory, Yi Feng agreed without thinking.

Even the emperor didn't know about this, he only knew that they had stored some food in the back mountain, considering that the other party lived in a remote place, if there was any natural or man-made disaster, he couldn't save it in an emergency, so Wei Le didn't do this move It made him feel unhappy, and he just thought it was a rainy day, which was fine.

Only Yi Feng and the veterans who dug the tunnel knew about the authenticity, not to mention Wei Le, the proposer. The rest of Wei Zhai, including Wei Fan, didn't know about it, which shows how well the two of them hid it.

Wei Le also visited the tunnel once, and found that everyone not only dug, but also tamped the inside of the tunnel, so that the tunnel will be stronger and will not drop a piece of mud or stones when passing by.

"This place is relatively large and can be used to store food."

The two came to the bottom of the martial arts field. A space about the size of the main room was dug out here. There were also tables, chairs and stone beds in it. Small stove, can be used to cook porridge or boil water.

"That's right, brother Feng, you're really amazing."

He just talked about it with Yi Feng, and it was all the information from the tunnel battle. As a result, Yi Feng completed it better than he imagined.This is simply another tunnel battle, if nothing happens then, if something happens and they hide in the tunnel, those people have to be careful.

There is space for food and accommodation here, and there is even a special place for going to the toilet, so you don't have to worry about smelling bad.

Of course, the most difficult thing about digging the tunnel is the connection between Wei Zhai and the villa. This road is far away, and it has to bypass the pond. Now this road is not connected. When this secret passage is opened, it will be real. Extending in all directions, no one can think of it.

There is not only one exit on the road in the villa, but also in the weeds, by the pond, and in the fields. In short, there are many exits, which can appear behind people at any time.

Hmph, let's see who dares to trouble him, then let him taste the power of the tunnel.

After watching the tunnel, Wei Le crawled out from under the bed with the help of Yi Feng.
