The life of farming in ancient times with a system

Zhang Junbao nodded in embarrassment.

He tried his best to keep calm, but Jiang Dai was so good-looking, he was the prettiest person he had ever met, even compared to Jiang Ruonian.Moreover, Jiang Daizhen exudes a faint fragrance, which is indescribably good.

Jiang Daizhen glanced at Lianzi, and Lianzi looked at Zhang Junbao very softly.

"You have to treat Lianzi well," he said.

"I will." Zhang Junbao glanced at Lianzi happily, and Lianzi smiled sweetly.

Jiang Dai is really not interested, but he called the person, and it seems a bit excessive to drive him away immediately.

He asked casually, "Is the new house ready?"

"We are now preparing. Our family is very satisfied with the lotus seeds. We have spent a lot of money to renovate the house inside and out. The furniture is also going to be brand new. We have found the best craftsman through our relationship..." Zhang Junbao Said a lot.

If it was before, Jiang Daizhen must have felt that his words were too dense and would have interrupted him long ago.But this time, he listened patiently to Zhang Junbao, with a bewildered smile on his face.

On the contrary, Zhang Junbao felt embarrassed, scratched the back of his head and said, "I don't talk too much?"

"Fortunately, Lianzi is my brother's right-hand servant. If you dare to treat him badly, let alone my brother, even I will not spare you." Jiang Daizhen said.

"I know, I know, I must be good to Lianzi." Zhang Junbao repeatedly agreed.

Jiang Daizhen said casually: "Carpenter Liu is the best at making furniture. He has a new apprentice, Lin Sanlang. Which family did you hire?"

Zhang Junbao raised his brows with joy: "Coincidentally, my family hired Carpenter Liu. Speaking of which, my family is somewhat related to Lin Sanlang. He didn't even ask for wages, and he worked for my family for free."

Jiang Daizhen smiled at the corner of his mouth: "You didn't come yesterday to invite them?"

"Yes, Master Liu is getting old. I used a bullock cart to pick them up. I was afraid that the master's side would be short of manpower, so I just had a day off and hurried over here." Zhang Junbao desperately increased his favorability.

Jiang Daizhen asked very carefully, asking where the old carpenter lived and what the Zhang family gave the master and apprentice to eat.

Zhang Junbao didn't know why, so he only answered all of them as Jiang Dai really cared about Lianzi.

"Brother, the fish got the bait." Xiaotao couldn't listen any longer, and kept asking about Lin Sanlang. These people are not fools, and they will definitely see it.

Jiang Daizhen had no choice but to stop talking and focus on the fishhook.

Seeing his uneasy expression, Xiaotao stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice, "Brother sit at ease, I'll help you find out."

Jiang Daizhen didn't speak, and glanced at Xiaotao.

Afterwards, Xiaotao went to the room where Lianzi lived with a plate of dim sum, talking and laughing to get Lianzi's words out.

"Zhang Junbao's elder brother married the second elder brother of the Lin family, which means that elder brother Zhang is Lin Sanlang's second sister-in-law. With such a relationship, it is not surprising that the Zhang family can invite Liu Carpenter. Lianzi said that Lin Sanlang is very kind, not only does he not want wages, and persuaded his master to ask for less wages..."

Xiaotao told Jiang Daizhen the news she inquired about.

Jiang Daizhen said happily: "Go, give Zhang Junbao a penny."

"Brother, you are so generous, is this Aiwujiwu?" Xiaotao blinked playfully.

"I'm doing it for the sake of lotus seeds." Jiang Daizhen said calmly.

Xiao Tao snickered and left.

"The food in this family is okay, better than the last one." The old carpenter complained to Lin Shen.

Lin Shen had no choice but to say: "Master, I have wronged you. If it weren't for my relationship, you wouldn't have come here to suffer this kind of punishment."

"What does it have to do with you? Some of the bosses are good people. He just thought, if you eat less, he can have more, it's all the same." The old carpenter comforted.

Just as he was talking, the small corner door opened.

Zhang Hongwen walked over happily with a small basket in his hand: "Master Liu, Brother Lin, it's time to eat."

"You don't have to look, I know what kind of rice it is, one vegetarian dish plus two thick steamed buns." The old carpenter whispered.

Lin Shen didn't say anything.

The vegetarian dishes are really vegetarian, and there is no oily smell in them, and the thick noodle steamed buns make your mouth squirm.They have eaten such meals for three or four days.

Really hungry, he went to the kitchen after dark and found that the food eaten by the Zhang family was very different from what they ate.The Zhang family's food is not big fish and meat, at least there is meat in the leftovers, and the steamed buns they eat are white flour.

Lin Shen didn't touch the meat and vegetables, but took two white flour steamed buns and shared them with the old carpenter.The old carpenter didn't say anything, as if he knew everything.

Strict in food, even harsher in other respects.After dark, they didn't even have a lamp to illuminate the house.I told Zhang's family a few times, they promised well, but they forgot when they turned around.

When I opened the basket, it turned out that the soup had been changed but not the medicine. It was still vegetarian dishes and two steamed buns with thick noodles, and there was no more steamed buns.

Lin Shen glanced at Zhang Hongwen: "Could you bring us a few more steamed buns next time? I eat a lot, and one steamed bun can't fill me up."

"I told my aunt."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Hongwen ran away in a hurry.

I don't know if he ate something bad, but Lin Shen's stomach hurts suddenly.He broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, and fumbled to put on his clothes.

When the door was opened, the old carpenter who was sleeping outside was alarmed.

"What's wrong?"

"I have a stomachache." Lin Shen paused, and said to the old carpenter, "Go to sleep first, and leave me alone."

"There's no light either. Slow down." The old carpenter said worriedly.

There were logs in the yard, and Lin Shen walked outside relying on his memory.

The hut was located in the southeast corner, where the Zhang family didn't take care of it, and the weeds grew extraordinarily luxuriantly.The so-called thatched hut is built with a few rotten logs, and a layer of thatch is spread on the top, which is regarded as a roof.

It’s okay when it’s sunny, but it’s sad when it’s raining. It’s raining heavily outside and light rain inside. One can imagine the mood of the squatting people.

Lin Shen groped in, and just squatted down under the thin moonlight when he heard a low voice.

"Why are you here now?" Zhang Hongwen complained.

"I accidentally fell asleep, have you waited long?" A young man's voice.

After that, there was the sound of sticky saliva.

Lin Shen's scalp was numb, and he didn't dare to take a breath. He didn't do it on purpose. He didn't expect Zhang Hongwen to have a private meeting with someone at such a late hour.

I don't know how long it took before the two hugged each other separated.

Zhang Hongwen made an appointment with that person for the next meeting, and the two parted reluctantly.

Zhang Hongwen watched the man climb over the dilapidated courtyard wall, and then walked back with a lantern in a happy mood.

In order to have a private meeting with people, he was afraid that the light would be too bright to attract attention, so the light of the lantern was extremely dim, which was why Lin Shen hadn't noticed it before.

Lin Shen nervously saw the dim light coming towards the hut. . .

"Someone." Lin Shen whispered.

Zhang Hongwen froze in place, the lantern in his hand was so dim that it was about to go out.

"When did you come?" Zhang Hongwen finally said after a long time.

"Just now." Without waiting for him to speak, Lin Shen spoke very quickly, "I didn't hear anything."

"It seems that you heard it." Zhang Hongwen smiled.

Lin Shen stopped talking, he was even more embarrassed than Zhang Hongwen.The main reason is that his current appearance is not easy for people to see.

"Let me finish the convenience, can we talk again?" Lin Shen said.

"Okay." Zhang Hongwen made up his mind to wait for him.

It took a long time before Lin Shen went out.

Zhang Hongwen wanted to post it, but Lin Shen stepped back quickly: "I don't smell good, so don't come here and get it on."

Zhang Hongwen looked at him pleadingly: "That's my girlfriend, please don't tell my father and Ah, they will beat me to death."

"It's been a long time, I won't say it." Lin Shen said.

Zhang Hongwen looked disbelieving: "Can I trust you?"

Lin Shen: "It's not good for me to talk about it. If you really like him and he likes you, you should make it clear to your family and settle the marriage as soon as possible. In this way, you can have a fair and honest relationship."

"I can't say it." Zhang Hongwen said with a bitter face.

As for why you can't say it, it's none of Lin Shen's business.

Every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, and he himself is still a bachelor, so he doesn't pass on love experience to others.

He turned around and left without giving Zhang Hongwen time to react.

Zhang Hongwen chased him a few steps, and asked in a low voice, "Are you really not going to tell me?"

"No." Lin Shen said without looking back.

Pushing open the door quietly, the old carpenter's voice sounded in the darkness: "Are you back?"

"Master, are you still asleep?" Lin Shen felt warm in his heart.

"Well, I'm worried about you, why have you been away for so long?" the old carpenter yawned.

"Without lanterns, I can't see the road." Lin Shen said vaguely.

The old carpenter sighed: "It's getting late, go to sleep."

Lin Shen touched the kang, lay flat and closed his eyes, and fell asleep not long after.

The meal was still delivered by Zhang Hongwen.

He took a peek at Lin Shen, and found that Lin Shen's expression was as usual, and the tension in his heart relaxed.

"Ah, let's add a few more steamed buns for them. Anyway, it's zamian steamed buns, and my family doesn't like to eat them." Zhang Hongwen said.

"You don't like to eat, but some people like to eat. Do you know that some people can't even eat steamed buns? Your brother is getting married at the end of the year. Save some money for his wedding. Your sister-in-law is a decent person. It's too simple, and the boss will not be happy." Ah Mo knocked Zhang Hongwen on the head.

"Lin Sanlang is my second brother's brother-in-law after all..." Zhang Hongwen muttered softly.

"He voluntarily, that's no one's fault. Before coming, your second brother made it clear that this is the condition, he wants money if he doesn't want it. Besides, he doesn't want wages, his master's wages are not low. I I went out and asked, and everyone paid the same price, but he, Carpenter Liu, asked for a higher price. He said that it was cheaper for us, and the price was the same as others, so they deserve this kind of food and this kind of treatment." Ah Mo said, poking his neck.

Zhang Hongwen wanted to cover his mouth: "Ah, keep your voice down so they can hear you, and see how you end up."

"I'm afraid he will hear it. You don't know how many immoral things Lin Sanlang has done. Your second elder brother has been angry with him a lot in the Lin family. Now if you ask him to pay you back, you will treat him as working for our family to pay off our debts. "Speaking harshly, Ah Mo's voice was still soft.

The housekeeper found Zhang Junbao and gave him a fat job.

"My master is going to hold a flower viewing banquet, and invite local lords and elder brothers to come and play. There are not enough people in the house, so we need to find a dozen people from outside. This is a fat job, and several people are vying for it. I didn't give it to you, I left it to you to do it..."

Zhang Junbao said excitedly: "Thank you uncle, I will definitely handle this errand well, so that the boss can't find any faults."

The butler patted him on the shoulder and said, "Uncle takes good care of you, so do your best."

Zhang Junbao seemed to be pumped out, gearing up for a big fight.

Zhang Junbao came back suddenly, and the first person he looked for was his younger brother.

Hearing that he could earn extra money, Zhang Hongwen was very happy.

Zhang Junbao took his younger brother aside and said in a low voice, "Your wages are fifteen yuan a day, while others are paid ten yuan. Don't let your mouth slip. It will make it difficult for brother to be a man."

Zhang Hongwen nodded and said, "Got it, my mouth is tight."

Zhang Junbao found Lin Shen and said something good happened.

"Ten pennies a day, the work is very easy." Zhang Junbao said.

"What kind of work?" Lin Shen wanted to go, mainly because he was in Zhang's house, and he had no wages and poor food.Birds are coming out of his mouth, even ten cents a day is fine, and after working for a few days, he can buy some cooked meat to improve his master's food.

"There is a Qin's family nearby. If you want to hold a flower viewing banquet, all the people who are famous are invited. If you go, you will do odd jobs. If you have work, you will do it. If you don't have work, you will rest. Don't worry, with me here, it won't happen." Make you tired." Zhang Junbao promised.

Lin Shen went to ask the old carpenter.

The old carpenter rolled his eyes: "It's only ten pennies, and the family sent a beggar. This kid looks honest, and he has more eyes than honey nests. Maybe he scraped off a layer of the money he gave."

Lin Shen said in a low voice, "It's better than working for free. If I go to work for a few days, you will have meat to eat."

The old carpenter thought about it, and nodded to let Lin Shen go.

Jiang Daizhen said lazily: "It's such a boring banquet again, don't you have anything else to do?"

"Who am I for, not for you. You are also old, and Dad and Ah Mo are worried about your marriage. Your vision is too high, you don't like this one, and you don't like that one. If you continue like this, you will never be able to get married." Jiang Ruonian pressed his forehead and said with an annoyed smile.

"If you can't find it, I won't look for it. My father said that even if I don't marry in this life, he can support me for the rest of my life. We don't have a husband in our family. Who will the family fortune be in the end? If I don't marry, let others marry in. I am the head of the family, and he acts according to my face, how nice it is." Jiang Daizhen said with a smile, swinging his legs.

"Which gentleman from a good family is willing to marry?" A man's voice said.

With that said, someone came in, it was Jiang Ruonian's husband, Qin Huaiye.

Qin Huaiye did not come alone, Qin Huai'an was behind him.

Qin Huai'an looked at Jiang Daizhen with his head probed.

Jiang Daizhen lost the smile on his face, stood up and looked out at the garden.

"Anyway, I don't want to marry, and if I want to marry, it's someone else's marriage."

Qin Huaiye turned his head to look at Qin Huai'an, and jokingly said, "Did you hear that, are you willing to marry?"

Qin Huai'an smiled shyly: "As long as you really nod your head, there will be mountains of swords and flames in front of you, and I am willing to jump down."

"Is he the one you're talking about?"

"Isn't it handsome?"

The two servants hid in the corner, commenting on Lin Shen.

Wait for Lin Shen to look over.Like frightened rabbits, they quickly avoided sight.

"Lin Sanlang, come here." A little steward called him.

Lin Shen immediately put down the things in his hands and walked over.

The little steward looks ugly, so Lin Shen is not pleasing to the eye.He is hostile to anyone who is good-looking, especially the brother he likes who shows his kindness to Lin Shen frequently.

Not long after Lin Shen came, he was accused of running around without even a break, so that the little steward could get a great sense of accomplishment, and Zhang Junbao had long since disappeared.

"Put the table over there," said the little steward.

"Are all the tables?" Lin Shen looked, and there were five or six tables.

"Otherwise?" the little steward said coldly.

"Okay." Lin Shen said.

The little steward folded his arms and watched Lin Shen work.

"A little this way."

"Is there something wrong with your eyes? I told you to move to the side, because something is stuffed in your ears."

The little steward was gesticulating, and his words were terrible.

Lin Shen endured it again and again, really wanting to drop his things and leave.Thinking of the old carpenter working in the Zhang family, he endured it again.No matter how harsh someone's speech is, he will treat it as if the person is farting, and the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out.

After dawdling for a long time, he was sweating all over, and the table was finally set.

Thankfully, the annoying little steward was finally called away.

"Lin Sanlang." Zhang Hongwen waved to Lin Shen.

Lin Shen followed him to a remote place.

"You haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you? My brother gave it to me." Zhang Hongwen opened a greased paper bag, which contained several pieces of cooked pork and a piece of lukewarm pancake.

"Have you eaten yet?" Lin Shen glanced at him.

"I've eaten it, and it's for you," Zhang Hongwen said.

"Thank you." Lin Shen didn't want to refuse. He was so hungry that he panicked and had no strength at all, so he picked up the cake and started to gobble it up.

Zhang Honglai thought it was funny: "Eat slowly, no one will grab you."

"I'm so hungry."

Lin Shen smiled at him, and lowered his head to pick up cooked meat to eat.

He hadn't eaten meat for several days, and he almost swallowed his tongue.

Xiaotao said that he seems to have seen Lin Shen.

Jiang Daizhen came out to find someone, but he didn't expect to see this scene.

Xiaotao's face changed slightly, and she glanced at Jiang Daizhen quietly.

Jiang Dai really looked calm, even with a smile on his face.

Eating too fast, Lin Shen choked and patted his chest for water.

Inadvertently, he saw Jiang Daizhen not far away.

Jiang Daizhen said to Xiaotao, "Get him water."

"Yes." Xiaotao glared at Lin Shen, and walked away with an unhappy face.

"Lin Sanlang, do you know him?" Seeing Jiang Daizhen's extravagance, Zhang Hongwen felt a little apprehensive.

"I know, he is the brother of the Jiang family." Lin Shen said.

The two were head to head, looking a little intimate.

Jiang Dai really waited patiently for them to finish speaking.

"I'm leaving. I'll be angry if I can't find the manager. I can't leave for too long." Zhang Hongwen slipped away quietly.

"Who is that you?" Jiang Daizhen asked with a smile.

"He is Zhang Junbao's younger brother, and I work in the Zhang family. The Zhang family is my second sister-in-law's natal family. The Zhang family wants to make a batch of furniture, so they invited me and my master." Lin Shen said.

"Then why did you come here?" Jiang Daizhen's eyes were clear, and most people would avoid his eyes because he was embarrassed by him.

Lin Shen said frankly: "For money, you can buy meat for my master. He hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and of course I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Zhang Junbao told me that he can get ten coins a day."

Xiaotao brings a bowl of tea.

Lin Shen thanked him and drank the water in the bowl in one go.

The steward came back and found that Lin Shen was gone, grabbed someone and asked, "Did you see Lin Sanlang?"

"No."

After the man finished speaking, he was pushed away by the steward.

Lin Shen couldn't be found, so the little steward was very angry and yelled there.

"Lin Saburo!"

"If you don't come out again, your salary today will be gone. If you want to earn money but don't want to work hard, do you think money is so easy to get?"

Lin Shen heard it and said to Jiang Daizhen, "I have to go to work."

Jiang Daizhen didn't stop him, and watched him walk up to the little steward.The little steward looked domineering, pointing at his nose and saying something.

"Lin Sanlang is too unlucky, I don't know how to offend that guy. That guy is narrow-minded, and the people he targets will end badly."

"It's only the first day I've been here, and I'll let him do all the hard work. He's not good-looking, and whoever makes Lin Sanlang look good will be targeted by him."

"Looks are born. If he is not good-looking, he will not allow others to be good-looking. You can see how strong Lin Sanlang's waist is. He can lift such a heavy thing at once."

Lin Shen picked up a wooden box and left under the command of the little steward.

"The hired workers only cost ten pennies a day?" Jiang Ruonian said in disbelief.

"That's right, it was rumored that the Qin family was very mean, and they were reluctant to spend even a small amount of money." Jiang Daizhen said.

Jiang Ruonian was very angry, so he called Ah Mo who was beside him, and asked him to call the housekeeper and accountant to him.

The housekeeper's face was ashen, and he kept wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Jiang Ruonian said angrily: "I didn't short you for food, nor for your drinking. You don't need to engage in such small tricks to disgust me and the Qin family. Ten cents a day, how many layers did you shave?"

The money given to the workers goes to the housekeeper first, and then to Zhang Junfu, and only a pitiful ten Wen is in the hands of the workers.

In order not to lose the trust of his boss, the butler pinned the blame on Zhang Junbao.

After Zhang Junbao came in, without saying a word, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, crying and said: "Even if I have the courage, I dare not lie to my master's money..."

Zhang Junbao burst into tears, and he called the black ones white.Coupled with Lianzi's relationship, Jiang Ruonian easily forgave him.

However, Zhang Junbao won't have the chance to climb up in the future, being a small steward is his limit.

Jiang Ruonian drove everyone out, and asked curiously, "You didn't care about such small things before, but today the sun came out from the west, and you started to care about such small things?"

"I, I overheard it." Jiang Daizhen paused, and changed the subject: "Brother, the banquet is about to start, if you don't show up, those people outside will have opinions."

"You come with me." Jiang Ruonian took Jiang Daizhen's hand and said with a smile.

After the banquet started, Lin Shen was free, and the annoying little butler also left, as if he had been assigned by the host to do other things.

Zhang Hongwen ran over crying.

Lin Shen asked him, "What happened?"

"My brother quarreled with my future sister-in-law." Zhang Hongwen cried.
