Village Flowers and Female Scholars

In fact, the farmer’s land is not bad. Ten mu of land is half paddy field and half dry land. The paddy field is a good field. Except that the dry land is somewhat backed by a few neem trees and shaded from the sun all year round, the rest is relatively fertile land.

It's just that He Laosan's family now sees that the farmer is not welcomed by the people of Shangyan Village, and after learning that Yu Po is ill, they conclude that Zhuang Wan will not take back the land at this time for the sake of land rent. It's cheap, and they came to the door to force Zhuang Wan to lower the land rent with the excuse of canceling the rent, but they didn't expect that they would take the land back directly, and they didn't accept this at all.

If she hadn't received Xie Yan's hint, Zhuang Wan might still be in trouble for a while. After all, at this time, Po Yu's sick family is in urgent need of money. If no one rents the land, she will lose an income and cannot make ends meet.

The most important thing is that the imperial court is now keeping a close eye on the land and actively encouraging the people to reclaim wasteland and cultivate land. If they see a family who has left uncultivated land and refuses to plant it, not to mention fines for reclaiming the land, then the loss outweighs the gain.

Now that Xie Jiasan's mother and son are willing to rent the land, it just happens to solve this urgent need.

Being threatened by others is not pleasant at all. Zhuang Wan has always disliked dealing with these unruly people in the village, but when they come to her, she can't deal with it.

Xie Yan just helped her with copying books one second, and took over the cultivation of ten acres of land the next second, Zhuang Wan couldn't help but feel more grateful when she looked at her.

Cao E made the porridge with the bone bone bought in the morning, and everyone sat around the table to drink the bone bone porridge. There were five of them, no more and no less, and it was rare to have a good time.

"From now on, I will entrust you to plant our land." Yu Po said with a smile.

"What are you talking about? Please don't ask me. If you can give us the land to plant, we can't wait for it. We will have something to rely on in the coming year." Cao E said hurriedly.

"It's all about helping each other. Let's not talk about outsiders. The He Laosan family is also lazy. The field is full of grass. I'm afraid you will have to worry about planting it. The land rent will be lowered first." [-]%."

Granny Yu is so talkative, how could Cao E dare to take advantage of it? She has been working in the fields all year round, and she knows the land of Granny Yu’s family. The land rent is not too high, so thank God for such a good land without raising the rent. How could she dare to accept this benefit.

Seeing that she was unwilling to accept it, Granny Yu no longer insisted. The two families can get along so harmoniously now, not because of taking advantage of each other.

After eating, Zhuang Wan went to the study and started to write "Legend of Xin Shi Shi Niang" by hand. Although Xie Yan didn't want to disturb her, she didn't listen to a word when her mother was talking to Granny Yu. From time to time, she glanced at the other side of the room. Zhuang Wan, who was sitting at the desk and writing quickly, seemed to sense that someone was watching her, and raised her head to look outside.

Xie Yan looked around guiltily, and missed the faint smile on Zhuang Wan's lips when she turned her head.

After settling down with Mother Yu, she finally returned home reluctantly. Seeing a huge lock hanging on the door, Cao E couldn't help but said, "I'm afraid people from the village will say that if you hang such a big lock, Ours are not."

Xie Yan snorted lightly and said: "Mouths grow on other people's faces. If you like to talk, let them talk. We live our own lives. When we are not doing well, they take pleasure in others' misfortune. When we are doing well, they feel jealous and sarcastic. If people flock here, they will be accused, so why do I have to show others my miserable life. I just want to live a better life than them and make them jealous."

It’s not a bad thing to say, Cao E thinks about it, it’s true, but she’s used to being weak, but now that her daughter has grown up to be the pillar of the family, she doesn’t bother to worry so much, just do what her daughter says up.

As soon as Xie Yan entered the yard, he went straight to the kitchen to boil water. The newly bought pot finally came in handy, and Xie Yuangu followed behind with his clothes in his arms.

Xie Yan teased him and said, "First come, first served. Elder sister doesn't care about respecting the old and loving the young. Elder sister has been waiting for this bath for a long time."

Xie Yuangu replied with a smile: "I'm not in a hurry, I'll wait for sister to come out before washing."

Seeing the two siblings laughing and playing, Cao E relaxed her heart. She went into the house and tidied up the quilts she bought today. Finally, she could sleep well tonight.

The land to be planted next year has also been decided. Cao E is laying out the quilt while planning tomorrow's work. She was afraid that she would be idle and have nothing to do. Now that it is good, she can go to the field tomorrow to weed and loosen the soil to prepare for the new year's cultivation. .

At that time, the seedlings will have to be planted first. It is necessary to go to the town. The chicken coop at home has to be erected quickly. The vegetable seedlings planted a few days ago have also sprouted. Remember to water them frequently these days. During the Chinese New Year, you can still eat a crop of green vegetables.

Here, Xie Yan finally took a big bath comfortably. Her whole body seemed to have lightened by tens of catties. Even the air she breathed was sweet. She walked out while wiping her hair and saw her mother in the yard. Handle the hoes and knives.

"Mother, yesterday I spent all the money on my body to buy things in the house. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the various hills again to see the wild goods that have not been picked up before, and this may be the last trip. After being plucked by me, nothing good will come out in the short term, and it will be next year at the earliest, and I will have to find other jobs in the future."

Cao E raised her head and said, "If you are short of money, you can use my one hundred Wen. What are you going to do on the mountain? Now that the weather is getting colder, those beasts are looking for food for the winter. It's not worth it if they get hurt. , Our family has also rented land now, and we can still live on this day with a little money."

"I know, I'm going up the mountain for the last time, and I'll walk through it all, and I won't go anymore, okay?"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Cao E had no choice but to say: "Okay, be careful yourself, I'm going to hoe the ground tomorrow, and you can rest by yourself when you come back and don't go to the ground with me. A little girl is busy with her family these days." I'm going to be exhausted from all the work, I'm going to rest at home for a few more days, there's not much work to do at home, my mother can't do enough work in the field, so when you come back, if you have time, run to the farmer and see Granny Yu If you need help, please go to help, Xiucai is a scholar, and these things inside and outside the house are always neglected, and he has helped us so much, we can't just repay him."

How much Cao E has been hurt these years, Xie Yan's memory is still deep in her memory, but she is such a person, even if everyone despises her once, once someone gives her a little favor, she can't wait to give her all her heart. Fortunately, they met Po Yu's family.

"Okay, I got it, mother. I'll sleep in my own room tonight. You and Gu'er will sleep together. You can hold the key on the lock at the door by yourself. I tied the key outside the yard together. Let's each take it." Once you get out, lock it when you go out, so as not to prevent the Cao family from coming to the house to grab oil like last time."

"...Okay, mother understands."

There were no oil lamps or candles at home, and the mother and son went to bed after washing up as soon as it got dark.

Xie Yan was lying on a big bed alone, and couldn't help sighing comfortably, what kind of life was she living in a long time ago, living in a firewood house, sleeping on a straw bed, taking a bath without washing, just rubbing it casually, eating for half a day A bowl of porridge depends on the face of the person. Sure enough, it’s better to be rich. Even if it’s just a thatched cottage with earthen walls, this single room with a comfortable big bed is a special hotel room in a scenic spot in modern times. It’s beautiful.

Tomorrow, after sweeping the mountains above the village, the mushroom picking period has almost passed, and the picking of wild goods has come to an end. Next, we will focus on following up on the production of Zhuang Wan's script, but this matter is mainly due to her busy side. I can't help much at all, I have to find other things to do, so that even if the story book fails at that time, with both hands prepared, I won't have nothing to gain.

Thinking of the simple mimeograph machine that I was going to get earlier, I still have to wait for some time. After all, the test needs to use some stencil ink and other things, and I need money to buy them. I don’t have any money left at the moment, so I have to find a way to earn some money first. .

As for raising rabbits, I have to pay attention when I go up the mountain tomorrow.

New bed and new quilt, comfortable, Xie Yan slept well and woke up early, but Cao E got up earlier, she was full of energy, she looked several years younger, a good young woman on the stove busy.

When Xie Yan was washing up, she had already cooked porridge, and Xie Yuangu was also fully dressed and playing in the yard with Da Mao in his arms.

"Sister, I will go to the fields with my mother to weed soon."

"Can Gu'er carry a hoe, and then weed the field?" Xie Yan joked.

"I can pull it out with my hands." Xie Yuangu was full of confidence and drive.

Xie Yan looked at his white and clean little hands and said, "I'll ask my mother to sew you a little glove later."

Cao E listened and said, "How can a boy be so delicate?"

In the past at Cao's house, Cao E wanted to protect his youngest son in his arms so that he would not get hurt, but now that he is finally independent, Cao E also changed his mind and began to want to cultivate his independent temperament. If you can't protect him, you can only desperately want to protect him. Now that you can protect him, you can let him out and grow up on your own.

Xie Yan cleaned up after drinking the porridge, then went up the mountain with a small scythe on her back and a small basket on her back.

Because I ran over every mountain before, and picked all the things that should be picked. Now the weather is getting colder, and the mushrooms don’t grow very much. Now I’m just picking up the leaks and trying my luck.

After walking for about half a day, I didn’t finish walking the several mountains of Shangyan Village until the afternoon. When I went down the mountain, the small back basket was barely full, but there were more types, but the amount was less. Can't sell it for any price.

When going down the mountain, I also picked a lot of tung tree fruits, which can be used to make oil lamps when I go back. I don’t need to buy candles for lighting at night, which saves a lot of money.

Xie Yan didn't expect any big gains today, but he just wanted to finish his journey so that he wouldn't have to worry about it in the future.

I was just passing by the bushes last time, remembering that when Ah Liang and Widow Song had sex here, she and Zhuang Wan hid behind that big rock, and the two of them were tightly pressed together, Xie Yan couldn't help but reach out and touch it. Cheeks, as if the heat on his face that day was still burning at this moment, and his heart was also a little ready to move.

Thinking back to that person's meekness over the past few days, and the feelings that tossed and turned in his heart at night, Xie Yan's heart was beating very hard. Although she hadn't been moved in the 27 years of the other life, she was not a human being in the two lives. How can a stupid person not know the reason for his strange behavior.

The author has something to say: Another chapter of rambling.
