Grandpa is not vegetarian

After Gao Yichun washed himself, he came in to help Mu Yunyi take off his underwear, let him lie down, and covered him with the quilt, which made Mu Yunyi very embarrassed: "I can do it myself, I just cut a mark on the bone. , it’s not that he’s broken and can’t move.”

"You just lie down!" Gao Yichun also took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of obscene pants, turned on the lamp, and then got into the bed on Mu Yunyi's left side, "It's serious to heal your injuries quickly, today is the It's getting hotter day by day, and when the time comes, you will sweat and flow into the wound, and when you suffer, I will do all the work in the field, and you can just keep it at home."

Mu Yunyi smiled helplessly, and said after a while: "I'm afraid I won't be able to raise it. I guess those people in your family can't be pulled down."

Gao Yichun was silent for a while, and then said: "I've thought about it. When my second uncle comes back, he will definitely go to the county. The Jiang family is not easy to mess with. There may not be any troubles at that time, even if Let's not be afraid, we just want to provoke anger for nothing, and it would be even worse if we delay farming, so tomorrow I plan to go to Jianggou and ask the matchmaker there to come and say goodbye to my eldest sister."

Mu Yunyi was taken aback: "Are you looking for someone to say goodbye to your eldest sister? That way they won't come back and bother us?"

Gao Yichun hummed: "I asked the matchmaker to tell my elder sister a good marriage. Now that Jiang Yu is in trouble, according to the snobbish eyes of my uncle's family, he must go to Jiang's family to withdraw the marriage. If the two families start to quarrel, they won’t be able to take care of us, and if my second uncle wants to find trouble in the county, he must follow the Jiang family’s case, which will make them fall apart, and he will have no excuse.”

Mu Yunyi was stunned for a long time: "Brother Yichun? Are you really my brother Yichun?"

Gao Yichun said: "What's the matter? Didn't you say that if I have any thoughts in the future, I will tell you? Do you think my method is not good?"

"Okay! Great!" Mu Yunyi rushed over with a smile, and kissed Gao Yichun on the forehead, "Brother Yichun, how did you come up with this idea? I thought I had to do it again."

Gao Yichun was a little embarrassed by his kiss: "It's nothing. I know what my relatives are like. I can't help but know that a bunch of money falling from the sky can make them turn their backs. I'll take a bunch of money tomorrow." Go to the money, hire that matchmaker to make up a lie to coax people, and when my uncle withdraws from the Jiang family's marriage, come back and push six, two, five, and it's over."

"But... what if the other side finds you along the clues? Or hire someone else to go."

"No." Gao Yichun said with certainty, "I am looking for an old matchmaker who has been working for 30 years. If the matter is revealed, who will ask her to introduce others in the future? He will try his best to cover this matter more than us. If we don’t reveal it here, no one will know about it.”

Mu Yunyi saw that he was all thoughtful, so he didn't say anything else.

When he got up the next morning, Gao Yichun went to Jianggou. He told people that he was going to the town to buy farm tools. Mu Yunyi was at home tending to the melon seedlings. He knew that farming was not an easy task, unlike later generations. There are long-acting fertilizers and pesticides. Fertilizers and pesticides are applied in the spring. After planting, you don’t need to worry about it until the autumn harvest. Farming in this era can be frightening. You have to shovel twice or even three times just for weeding. Ridges, thinning... a lot of work, even if Gao Yichun can work hard, it will be exhausting to tend [-] acres of land by himself. Gao Yiqing is too young, and he doesn't know how to do farm work. If someone else is alone, they will step on the ridges and harm the seedlings.

So this land must be found for others to plant, or rented out for others to plant, only three floors of land rent are charged every year, and [-]% of these three floors are used to pay agricultural taxes. There is nothing left, so we can only I hired someone to help me grow it, but I was afraid that the other party would not pay attention, and the watermelon was more carefully handled, and when it was ripe, I even had to build a shack in the field to watch it.

After much deliberation, Mu Yunyi decided to find someone who would be successful. He had already fallen in love with the Ma family, but he didn't know if he was willing or not. Now that the melon seedlings have grown, it is necessary to confirm this matter. If he doesn't want to, he has to find another family. The only ones he can rely on in the village are the Ma family and the Ji family. The Ji family has too little labor. If the Ma family disagrees, Gao Yichun has to find a way.

Gao Yichun came back at noon, brought two hoes, he dismissed Gao Yiqing, and said to Mu Yunyi, "I found Sangu Zhang, the most famous little foot in Jianggou, and gave her a hundred coins, and she will come over tomorrow to talk about matchmaking." .”

"I don't worry about your work." Mu Yunyi patted Gao Yichun on the shoulder, and then told him about farming.

Gao Yichun was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Let's not talk about who, but if you go to someone to look at the land, do you have a charter?"

Mu Yunyi said: "Watermelon is a new thing for everyone. No one dares to grow it, so we have to bear the risk. I think about six acres of land, and one mu of land will give him a tael of silver. Now start planting, until harvest in July, and give me a penny for every ripe melon.”

"Is this a bit much?" Gao Yichun couldn't believe it, "Even if it's my own land, if I use it to grow wheat, I only get one or two taels of silver a year. If you give one or two silver, I will give you another penny..."

Mu Yunyi said: "If the watermelon can be sold at that time, the capital will definitely be earned back. If it can't be sold, it will definitely lose the bottom line. That's nothing to say. Before I do it, I've already done it. I’m ready to lose everything.”

Gao Yichun thought for a while and said: "You don't need one tael, half a tael, and an extra penny for each melon. What's wrong with you, secondly, if you really earn more money in the future, they will complain that you don't pay enough, don't you want to hear about Sheng Mien and fight against Mi En? It's best to follow the trend."

Mu Yunyi smiled and said: "You know more about this than I do, so I will make the decision according to this, but I haven't figured out who to do it with. In this village, you are better than me. Help me think of an honest and reliable person." family."

Gao Yichun said: "In terms of reliability, the Ji family and the Ma family are the only ones. If the Ji family is short of labor, the Ma family is the most suitable."

"I also think that Ma's family is good, but can they be willing to do it? I think there are only three men in their family, and they have more than 60 acres of land. In the future, to take care of watermelons, they have to build a shack in the field and watch the melons ripen. Beware of people stealing, but also beware of wild boars and hedgehogs."

Gao Yichun smiled: "I'm [-]% sure that they will do it, if they don't, let's find something else."

"They can do it, that's the best. If they can do it, I want to save them the rest."

Gao Yichun shook his head: "It's best not to put all of them in the same family. My uncle and the others will definitely not be reconciled, especially my fourth uncle, who is the most capable of slapping face and messing around. If you make trouble, the family may not be able to withstand it. It's best to rent it separately. The three families, when the time comes, they will make a fuss, even if they are together with the three families, we have to try our best to find someone who is not afraid of them."

Mu Yunyi found that he was really not as quick-witted in this aspect, and the other party thought of everything he didn't expect: "Okay, okay, you can rent it to whoever you say."

Seeing him like this, Gao Yichun was also very happy in his heart: "Actually, I just thought, do all the work you can do, so that you don't have to worry a little bit, just be a young master in the city, reading and playing all day long."

Mu Yunyi also smiled and said: "I don't worry about you, I'm afraid that you will be bullied by your relatives. If I knew you were so clear and capable, I would stay in the city and be a young master." , but don’t you become my farmer?”

Gao Yichun said: "I have been in the field since I was so old, and I am a real farmer."

Mu Yunyi took his hand, patted the back of his hand and said: "To be a young master, we all have to do it, and Xiao Wu, let's be young masters together and study together."

The two chatted and laughed, and Gao Yichun asked again, "Have you thought about the rest of the land? What do you plan to plant?"

"Our sandy land and saline-alkali land are by the river, and the saline-alkali land is in a low-lying place. I want to dig out the ten acres of land and turn it into a paddy field, plant rice, and then raise fish with it."

Gao Yichun was dumbfounded when he heard that: "You want to turn that into a paddy field? And raise fish in it?"

The land is the lifeblood of the common people, no matter how bad the saline-alkali land is, it can still harvest some grain every year, and because it is a "bad land", the annual tax is very little, and the income is only six or seven renminbi. Chengdu is not good, Mu Yunyi will dig the land and turn it into a paddy field, and then raise fish in it. In Gao Yichun's impression, he is no different from a prodigal son, because if it is not good, there will be no harvest for a year, and he will continue to do the same. Paying taxes, that is the real loss of money and money, no one would toss their own fields like this.

Mu Yunyi didn't consider this level, he only thinks about things according to the thinking of modern people, and now that he has money in his hand, even if he loses all his money, it's nothing to do. There is nothing to return, and the two "bad fields" add up to only a dozen or so taels of silver. Counting labor, seeds, etc., 20 taels are also blocked. If they make money, it will be a lot of money.

Gao Yichun was stunned for less than ten seconds before returning to normal. He knew that Mu Yunyi was someone who had made up his mind. Seeing that he had already made up his mind, he didn't say anything more. In his heart, he always He thought that Mu Yunyi had exchanged the collar for the land, and it was up to him to decide what he wanted to do, and seeing how confident Mu Yunyi was, he could do it.

The two discussed the details again, and when the Ma family came back in the evening, after dinner, Mu Yunyi told the matter.

Ma Tiezhu hesitated and said: "Will the six mu of watermelon be fully planted, and the price will be sold at that time? According to me, it is enough to plant only two or three mu of land, and the rest should be planted with peanuts."

Mu Yunyi said: "I'll be in charge of selling or not. As long as you are willing, help me plant, help me look, and help me harvest. It will only take three or four months. When the time comes, I will hire a car to pull it. You will be given half taels of silver for an acre of land, and an extra penny for a melon."

Aunt Ma hurriedly said: "You already have a lot of money. The aunt is afraid that you will lose it. Otherwise, you should hire someone to breed and collect it yourself. We will take care of it for you when the time comes. If you lose money, you can save less money." Compensate."

Mu Yunyi smiled and said: "I haven't planted aunts yet, so you can just say compensation, haha, it's okay, you still have to give the money that should be paid, you can't let uncles and aunts work for nothing, of course you have a lot of power in your family, if you Too busy, brother Yichun and I will find another place."

"Do it, why don't you do it!" Ma Le volunteered, "Master, I'll show you, it doesn't cost money, you just give me two melons."

"Go, adults talk, why do children interrupt!" Ma Tiezhu scolded his son loudly, and then said to Mu Yunyi, "Our family has never grown that melon before. If you are not afraid of being spoiled by us, I will grow it for you. It’s just that if it’s broken, you can’t let me accompany you.”
