Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

Chapter 124 The New Year Comes

Liang Kangsheng looked at Qu Yi's expression, and guessed that the little husband was feeling guilty at the moment, so he stepped forward and put his arms around Qu Yi: "Brother Yi, we won't do nothing if they want to come home, there are other things if they don't have medicine and ink." , whether it’s today or tomorrow, no matter what day it is, it’s New Year’s Eve, if something happens, it will make mother feel bad, so don’t think too much about it.”

Qu Yi shook her head: "But this year is the New Year's Eve, so it's different."

Liang Kangsheng poked Qu Yi's face: "In fact, compared to knowing what uncle and the others did, Zhuang Chenghong and Zhuang Chengzhi's ignorance is much less stimulating to mother. With father around, I believe father can make mother feel at ease. "

At this time, Liang Kangsheng could only trust his father, his father comforted his mother, and he comforted Brother Yi.

"Brother Yi, think about it, if Zhuang Chenghong and the others hadn't moved their minds to take away the medicine ink, so many things wouldn't have happened later. Zhuang Chenghong beat Zhuang Chengzhi, threw things, and ran out. We couldn't have thought of it in advance. "

"Actually, as long as their minds are right, what we do will not affect them. On the contrary, if their minds are not right, things will happen if we don't do anything."

After being comforted by Liang Kangsheng, Qu Yi thought about it, he is not a real child, he has experienced the life and death of his relatives, and all kinds of bad things, he is not as weak as before.

But thinking that he had ruined the Zhuang family's exciting New Year's Eve plan, after the Liang family's yard quieted down, Qu Yi took the snacks, appetizers and fruit wine he had prepared in the kitchen in advance, and walked quietly with Liang Kangsheng When you go to Zhuang's main courtyard, you should spend a year with the elders anyway.

The fruit wine brought by Quyi is sweet and sour hawthorn wine that has only been fermented for a short period of time, and wine with a slightly longer fermentation time and stronger taste. The fruit wine is not very intoxicating after drinking. It is suitable for the whole family to drink Order wine and chat while eating something.

Zhuang was surprised by the arrival of Qu Yi and Liang Kangsheng, but thinking of the two children's wishes, she had her first sincere smile tonight.

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Zhuang pulled Qu Yi aside and explained: "Brother Yi, this is the first New Year you married in. Mother thought of the crowds so she called Uncle Kang Sheng's family here. I didn't expect it to be self-defeating. In this way, don’t take it to heart, it won’t happen in the future.”

Zhuang was worried that Qu Yi had a lump in her heart, so she deliberately explained that even she couldn't accept what the two nephews did today, let alone Er Fu Lang who had no feelings for the nephews.

"Mother, I understand." Qu Yi still felt guilty towards Zhuang, and seeing that Zhuang took the initiative to talk to him, she felt even worse, and repeatedly said that she didn't take it to heart, and the family kept a good watch.

Quyi and Zhuang's husband and wife have never had any misunderstandings and conflicts since they married in Quyi's life, and they get along well, so Zhuangshi thought about explaining that her son-in-law should not mind, and let go of her worries Now, I drank two more sips of hawthorn wine in a good mood, and happily chatted with Quyi about the New Year's arrangements, what new clothes to make for the family.

No matter women or brothers, no matter how old or young they are, they all have a passion for clothes. In her previous life, Qu Yi couldn't let go of her hands and feet at first, worrying that she was a country brother and Zhuang's favorite things were different. Zhuang discussed these.

This life is different, Qu Yi has lived in the Liang family for many years and has adapted to the life of the Liang family. He has long understood Zhuang's preferences, and the two of them who have no worries can naturally chat together.

On the other side, Father Liang and Liang Kangsheng looked at the two Po-Lang who were talking happily, and they felt better.

Father Liang took a sip of wine: "Kang Sheng, it's a good thing you came to accompany us, otherwise your mother will probably not be able to sleep all night tonight."

Liang Kangsheng thought for a while, and told his father the truth: "Father, in fact, Yaomo and I came up with the idea of ​​Brother Yi. We kept the real medicine ink well, and we just wanted to use Yaomo's excuse to keep it from being revealed." Brother and the others went to my study to get things again, but I didn't expect to make troubles like these later, which made parents bother you."

"I guessed it a long time ago." Liang's father waved his hand, "Let's not talk about these unpleasant things, what do you two plan for next year, do you want to leave early for the college examination, and let Brother Yi accompany you there? "

Liang Kangsheng nodded: "Well, I'm going to set off early with a few other students who are also going to take the college exam. When I arrive in Fucheng, I will ask Brother Fang to rent a small courtyard for a short time. We will study in Fucheng for a while and discuss knowledge with each other. I think Tell mother before you leave quickly, so as to prevent her from accidentally leaking her words and letting my uncle know."

This was something that Qu Yi and the others had thought about before. Liang Kangsheng had to be on guard against Zhuang Qingze's request to accompany him in the exam. The main reason for starting early was to prevent Zhuang Qingze from sabotaging. Liang's father knew this, so it didn't matter if he said it.

Father Liang looked at his son who was becoming more and more resolute, and he was very satisfied: "You just know what you want. When you arrive in Fucheng, you don't have to worry about your family. You can prepare for the hospital exam with peace of mind. Bring more money to go there. Don't put pressure on yourself. It's best if you pass the exam. If you don't Let’s come back next year, the body is the most important.”

The father and son finished talking about Liang Kangsheng's scientific research, and then they talked about family affairs. The mountains at home have been taken care of, and after the new year, Qu Erniu will lead people to plant various fruit seedlings. Fruit trees can easily survive in spring , take root and sprout, blossom and bear fruit.

Speaking of Qu Erniu, Liang's father was full of praise. After he started working in the wine shop after August, he gradually realized the benefits of his son giving Qu Erniu full responsibility for the money.

In November and December, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the wine shop. When he was busy, he saw that the fields at home were fields, and the mountains were mountains. They were all neat and tidy. over.

After Liang's father finished praising Qu Erniu, Liang Kangsheng brought up his idea: "Father, I think when the fruit trees on the mountain are planted, the winter grain planted last year can also be harvested, and then the spring plowing will start. The people who help our family basically have to go back to their own homes to work, how do you think our family's fields can be better handled?"

Liang Kangsheng is not in a hurry to do things on the mountain. After all, he has to wait for the fruit trees to grow up. If he wants to produce a lot of fruit this year, it is estimated that he will not be able to do it this year. He will have to wait until next year at the earliest. Therefore, the family field is relatively more urgent. After all, he has bought so many. It is not enough to be abandoned, if you want to cultivate, you must need people.

Father Liang recalled what he saw when he went to the field these two days, and said: "The land has not been cultivated yet, why not let them continue planting beans and sweet potatoes after everyone's spring plowing is over, and don't plant them this year. Fine grains, as for the people who will take care of the fields in the future, my idea is to recruit tenant farmers, what do you think, Kang Sheng?"

People with large fields were either rich or powerful. Those with many servants in the family would ask their servants to plant the land, those who were stingy would find long-term workers, and those with few servants who wanted to save trouble could hire tenant farmers or rent them out.

Shareholders refer to those who have no land in their own family and go out to subsist in other people's fields to grow food. If they don't have their own land to grow food, the family will have nothing to eat. Although they don't need to pay grain tax if they don't have land, they can eat something. You have to spend money to buy it, so it’s better to go outside to help others cultivate the land, and pay half of the grain for the owner after paying taxes a year. It’s not easy to become a tenant farmer.

Take Qu Jiawang as an example, if Qu Jiawang sells the last acre of their family’s land, then he and his grandma want to eat, either he will go out to do odd jobs to earn money to buy food, or he will work as a long-term worker and his boss will feed him. Yes, because no one is willing to hire a half-grown boy like him who wants to be a sharecropper.

With so many acres of land in the Liang family, it would be too troublesome for one family to rent a little bit for another. It is indeed the most appropriate way to recruit a few tenant farmers, and let the tenant farmers raise cattle to help them work, so that they can manage the land well without many people.

However, the tenant farmers have been working in the Liang family for a long time, so it is impossible for them to temporarily live in the outer courtyard of the Liang family like Qu Daniu and Qu Erniu, and they have to build another house for the tenant farmers.

Thinking that there was no extra money in the family account book to use to repair the house, Liang Kangsheng said: "Father, I still have some private houses that you gave me before. Why don't you use them to repair the tenants' houses first?"

"You collect your money yourself. You don't have to worry about family affairs. You have to wait until summer at the earliest to recruit tenant farmers. There is still half a year left. Now that the grain in the field is harvested and sold, you will have money." How could Father Liang want his son? He also thought about subsidizing his son when he left for Fucheng.

Now Father Liang has seen through it, he doesn't want Zhuang Qingze to take advantage of his family at all, even if Kang Sheng takes the money and squanders it, Kang Sheng is his son, and he is willing to spend money for his son.

"Okay, if the family is short of money, dad, you can ask me or let mother ask Yi brother, you understand." Father and son have their secrets.

Talking about family affairs, talking about next year's arrangements, the time passed quickly, the large and small jars of wine were all drunk, and the pastries, snacks, and appetizers brought by Quyi and the others were also empty, and it was almost time.

Qu Yi's face was reddish, and he put the cups, bowls, plates, altars, etc. in the yard aside, and then the family of four walked to the door of the house, and Liang's father came forward to light the firecrackers prepared in advance.

When the new year turns from the old to the old, the firecrackers are crackling, heralding a prosperous new year.

There was no one near Liang's house, and they became quiet after the firecrackers were over. However, the sound of firecrackers from the distant village could be faintly heard, as well as the sound of children laughing and fighting. It was not very clear. The family of four I stood at the door for a while.

Because there were only the four of them watching the New Year alone, everyone talked happily and warmly together. They accidentally forgot about Zhuang Qingze's family who were guests at Liang's house, and they didn't think of calling them when they fired the cannon.

When the firecrackers were over, they turned around and saw Zhuang Qingze and Zhao Hongmei leading the sleepy Zhuang Chenghong and Zhuang Chengzhi walking over. Everyone froze on the spot.

Zhuang Qingze's face was very ugly in the night: "Sister, brother-in-law, are you finished?"

Zhuang's good mood disappeared in an instant. Looking at the two yawning nephews, she didn't know what to say, so she held back for a while and said, "Qingze, the children are too young to stay up late, why do you call them up? Take the baby back to sleep."
