I mentioned that there was vinegar in the wine shop, and that there was a problem with the pottery pot. After Liang's father calmed down, Liang Kangsheng and he continued to go to various villages to collect grain. Tell Zhuang about it.

Liang's father felt that the matter had not yet been fully concluded, while Liang Kangsheng was worried that his mother would be soft-hearted because Zhuang Qingze was her younger brother, so it was better not to tell her.

After a few more days like this, the Liang family father and son finally came to Qujia Village to collect grain.

If it hadn't happened that Qu Yi married into the Liang family, the Liang family would have followed the rules when they came to collect grain, but this year's situation is a little different, except for Qu Yi, that is, the grain collected by the Qu family is not as good as in previous years good.

The Qujia Village was established by Liang's father himself. He excluded the Qu's food at that time. The harvest of the Qu's land was poor. The grain collection in Qujia Village was almost delayed.

The Liang family has harvested grain for so many years, and the surrounding villages also know their family's habits. In addition, Liang Mao brought Liang Duodao to tell them in advance. At this moment, Village Chief Qu has arranged for people to move the grain to the open space. He himself went to the entrance of the village to pick up people.

Seeing the Liang family's carriage approaching, Village Chief Qu greeted them politely: "Master Liang, Young Master Liang, the families you said you wanted to take in have all come out with their food, check and check."

After dealing with them for a long time, Father Liang is also very polite to the village chiefs of these villages: "Okay, please ask Village Chief Qu to lead the way."

The Liang family has notified in advance which households they want to receive, and the approximate amount each household will receive. Now that everyone is here, they are checking the quality of the food, weighing it, giving money, and getting the food together.

After so many years, because the Liang family has always kept their word and never deceived others, the villagers who sold grain to the Liang family would not steal or cheat. better.

After all, paying taxes is mainly about weighing, as long as it is not particularly bad, you can get by. Selling good grain to the Liang family can get a lot of money, which is much more cost-effective than selling to grain merchants.

Liang Kangsheng had already collected a lot of rice from other people, and he was very familiar with checking the quality of the rice. He first took a preliminary look at the front, and Liang's father re-inspected later. Liang Mao and Liang Duodao waited for them to weigh and give Money, and then the apprentices and buddies of the winery will load the food into the cart, so that the money and the goods will be equal.

In the middle of the grain acceptance, Mrs. Qu suddenly ran over angrily, and she heard her dissatisfied yelling before anyone approached: "Village chief, what do you mean, why are the Liang family here to collect grain today?" Without notifying us?"

Facing the rather dignified Village Chief Qu, Mrs. Qu did not dare to yell casually. This kind of yelling was her limit, because the village chief was not only the village chief, but also the patriarch of their Qu family, so she could not offend casually.

Village head Qu has been annoyed by Mrs. Qu's affairs recently. Seeing that Mrs. Qu wanted to mess around again, he stopped her outside the grain bag and asked in a cold voice, "Why didn't you inform me? You don't know what you think?"

"Our family's food is harvested by the Liang family every year, so there's no reason not to harvest it this year!" Mrs. Qu is confident, she doesn't care about anything else, anyway, she won't admit it if it doesn't follow the situation of previous years!

Looking at Father Liang and the others, Old Madam Qu opened her voice: "In-laws, grandson-in-law, don't be embarrassed to accept my family's food just because you are married to Quyi, as long as you give me money, I don't sell it to anyone, we are in-laws, We should help each other more."

If the extra grain at home is not sold to the Liang family, it will cost a lot less when the grain merchants come to collect it later. Mrs. Qu is not willing to suffer this loss. This year, the family has already harvested less grain, which has already made her feel distressed. Had to stay awake all night.

"The Liang family collected the grain and took it back to make wine. The grain from your Qu family is dry and dull. How can we take yours away? Don't be ashamed of coming out." Village head Qu's face darkened, "Liufang, if you keep messing around, I'll send someone to call Liucousin."

Old man Qu and his branch are ranked sixth in the Qu family tree. Village head Qu usually calls out his name, and only when he is unhappy will he call according to the order of the family tree.

"Village head! Patriarch! Where am I messing around?" Granny Qu felt dissatisfied. She felt that there was enough grain for wine making, so why use good grain?

With her eyes rolling, Mrs. Qu passed Village Chief Qu and continued to say to Father Liang and the others: "In-laws, my family's food was carefully tended by Da Niu and Er Niu before, and it is not as bad as the village head said. In-laws, you have seen Just know."

The old lady Qu ignored her words again and again, which made Village Chief Qu a little annoyed, and his tone was even worse than before: "Six house! Back then you insisted that those who took your money didn't work well in your field, I already The mastermind asked everyone to return half of the money to you, what else do you want!"

"What else do I want?" Granny Qu cried, she suddenly stared at Father Liang and Liang Kangsheng, "I felt something was wrong, so I was waiting for the old lady here!"

Granny Qu didn't think of this when she didn't see Liang's father and the others. Now that she saw them, she suddenly thought, did the Liang family deliberately let her first and second bedrooms work in the Liang family? Tell the crops in your own field to be left alone, and then the harvest becomes poor, so as to take revenge on the Qu family?

The old lady Qu's mind was wide open, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that what she was thinking made sense, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the Liang family used to collect their own food, but now they suddenly stopped.

Father Liang watched Mrs. Qu jumping and making noise with excitement, and his mind was full of doubts. What did they do, didn't they just not accept their food?

Liang Kangsheng, on the other hand, knew old lady Qu relatively well. He thought about it a few times, and gradually understood some of old lady Qu's thoughts.

Needless to say, Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi really had some intentions to let the uncle and the second uncle go to the Liang family to work, but this little thought is secondary, the main thing is to find an opportunity to change the uncle and the couple. temper.

"Sixth room!" Village head Qu was so angry at old lady Qu, his forehead was throbbing with veins, he took a crutch that was more decorative than practical and slammed on the ground, "You blame this person and that person all day long, Why don't you blame yourself!"

"Did the Liang family stop you from watering the fields, weeding and catching insects, or did the people in our village really take your money and not work hard?"

Village head Qu became more and more suspicious of Mrs. Qu's nonsense. It used to be better, that is, she favored the fifth room in her own house, and the other rooms didn't say anything, and she couldn't make trouble if she wanted to. In the past year, when various things happened in the Qu family, she Like a grasshopper after autumn, jumping around!

Don't think he doesn't know, back then the Liang family asked Qu Daniu and Qu Erniu brothers to go home to work every few days, but it was Mrs. Qu who drove them away, saying that it was their land and she paid others to work. work.

If she really gave other people a lot of copper coins, how could the villagers be so perfunctory to her? After all, she is a villager, and if she bows her head and doesn't see her up, it's not good to stiffen the relationship. Besides, it's just watering. It's not a particularly tiring thing for other people.

But the problem is that at the beginning, Mrs. Qu said that ten copper coins a day were only used for watering. After only two or three days, she felt that it was too much. She asked others to water and weed, and then it was too much. Excuses Said that it rains occasionally in God, and it was reduced to five copper coins a day.

It was like this until Qu Daniu and Qu Erniu came back and found that there was something wrong with the crops. She immediately ran to the houses that took her copper coins and asked them to return the money to her.

The most annoying thing is that not only does she want others to pay back the money, but she also has to compensate her!

The big guy does as much work as he takes from Mrs. Qu, and who will agree to pay back the money or lose money, and privately accuses Mrs. Qu of being dishonest, and she deserves it.

Worried that everyone's arguing would affect the important autumn harvest, Village Chief Qu finally asked them to take a step back, and the people who received the money returned half of it. Mrs. Qu was not allowed to make any more noise, and the matter was over.

Granny Qu finally settled down a bit, but she didn't expect the Liang family to come, and her "illness" happened again. The Liang family came to collect grain, which is the biggest annual income for honest farmers in the village. Village head Qu would not allow it. Granny Qu destroyed.

Seeing that Mrs. Qu wanted to continue talking about the Liang family, Village Chief Qu knocked on the leg of the wooden table next to him with his cane, and at the same time said loudly, "Where are you guys? Get me the one from the sixth room!" Go to the sixth room, ask them this woman, they can take care of it, but if they can't take care of me, the village head, help them take care of it!"

There are usually two ways for the patriarch of a family to help manage people. One is to use the clan's torture tools to teach people, and the other is to expel the clan.

No matter which method is used, it is a very shameful and embarrassing thing. The Qu family has multiplied in this land until now, except for a very few people who have made a big mistake, the patriarch will basically not intervene in other situations.

Seeing that Village Chief Qu was really angry, Mrs. Qu remained motionless, her expression froze on her face, which looked very funny.

Before the others stepped forward to pull her away, old man Qu squeezed in from the crowd at some point, and slapped old lady Qu with his backhand, making everyone stunned.

The appearance of Old Man Qu relieved Mrs. Qu's embarrassment and panic, and she flinched and hid behind her man.

Don't look at the sound of old man Qu's slap, but he didn't use much force, and the hit didn't hurt. Before everyone could speak, he rushed to say: "You old woman is messing around in front of the village chief. If you don’t know, don’t run out and make yourself ashamed, our family’s grain harvest this year is only enough for us to eat, what to sell and what not to sell!”

This remark made the Liang family refuse to accept their family's grain, and it was forced to say that the Qu family was unwilling to sell grain and tried hard to save their family's face. Condition.

Village head Qu didn't want to care about old man Qu's petty thoughts, and when he saw him appearing on his own initiative, he said to him: "Take him away if you know it's embarrassing, don't hang around in front of me!"
