Stingy Husband Farming

Shen Mu felt that this was the most generous time in his short life!

For revenge, it is worth spurting blood from the heart!

That's right, for Shen Mu, a child who is only willing to spend three taels of money to buy a husband, every year!Two two!It is equivalent to stabbing more than a dozen knives in his heart every year. Isn't that just continuously spurting blood?

Still bleeding profusely...

Old man Shen hesitated.If he could get 30 taels of silver, he wouldn't even listen to Shen Mu's suggestion.But I can only get seven taels, which is not enough to pay off the debt.Indeed, as Shen Mu said, the land is sold, even the house is sold, what will they eat and drink in the future, and where will they live?The old couple are only over 50 years old, and they feel that they are still in good shape, and they can live for at least five, six, seven or eighty years. After all, it is still worthwhile not to take the seven taels of silver.

But Old Man Shen is not stupid, Shen Mu's attitude suddenly changed, he always felt that Shen Mu was trying to trick him: "Really? What if you can't get the money at that time?"

Shen Mu is cheating, but the one he wants to cheat is not old man Shen, but second son Shen.

Shen Lao Er killed his father, how could Shen Mu use the money obtained by his father's life to pay Shen Lao Er's debt?

But the village head sentenced them all, and he couldn't help it.The only plan for now is to start with old man Shen and drive a wedge between old man Shen and second brother Shen—although he and old man Shen haven't lived together very much, Shen Mu also knows through these few fights that old man Shen is an old man. Very selfish person.He can do it to Mr. Shen, but there is no reason why he can't do it to Mr. Shen.

He would protect Lao Er Shen and come to his home to ask for money, but his father was dead, and Old Shen would point to Lao Er Shen to support him until the end of his life.

What if he is willing to provide for his retirement?

The world is all for profit.

The benefits are attractive enough, he doesn't believe that Old Man Shen won't be tempted.

"I made a written statement. If you can't pay the silver master, you can go to the government to sue me for being unfilial. You can sell my house, land, or me." Shen Mu's house is made of bluestone and red tiles, and the cost is not cheap.With this foundation, if you really want to sell it, you can sell it for as little as 20 taels of silver!In addition, Shen Mu's family still has two acres of dry land, although it is only Susukida, it can be sold for six taels of silver.

No matter how you calculate it, it is more cost-effective than just taking seven taels!

"I know the Lord doesn't believe me... I didn't mean to offend just now." Shen Mu frowned and lowered his head. In the eyes of the villagers, the thin young man looked as if he was about to cry, and he couldn't be more pitiful. "But as soon as I saw my master come to my house to ask for money, I knew that you were asking for money for my second uncle. Whenever I think of my second uncle, I think of him killing my father..."

Yes, who can have a good face towards his father-killing enemy?

At this moment, Liu also understood what Shen Mu meant.She disapproved a little in her heart, but the thought of using the money obtained in exchange for her husband's life to pay Shen Lao Er's debt was as disgusting as eating a fly.

It's just that she and old man Shen had a deep feud, and she couldn't make a reconciliation like Shen Mu.So he kept a cold face on the side, making an appearance of "Although I don't want to, but I can't stop my son from being filial".

After all, there are some things that Shen Mu can't remember when he is too young, but she can't.

And old man Shen, because of Shen Mu's unintentional words, his mind turned and his eyes lit up.

In the end, Old Man Shen agreed to Shen Mu's proposal.Witnessed by the village chief, a group of people made a written statement. Old Man Shen, Shen Mu, and Mrs. Liu, three people who deserved money from Boss Shen, pressed their fingerprints in turn.

It is stated in the document that the old man Shen voluntarily gave up Shen Wen to pay seven taels of silver for his life, and Shen Mu will pay old man Shen two taels of pension money every year from next year (this year's pension money has been given by Boss Shen when he was alive), limited to two taels per year. The settlement must be settled before the month, otherwise the old man Shen has the right to sell the land and house of Shen Mu's family to pay off the debt.

Under the eyes of the village chief, old man Shen didn't dare to add Shen Mu.

It was because of this incident that Shen Mu's reputation of filial piety spread in the village.It turns out that Shen Mu just hates the second elder Shen, and has nothing to say to the second elder of the Shen family!That's two taels of silver!The annual expenditure of a family in the village may not even cost two taels!

As for Shen's second child, he killed Shen Mu's father, shouldn't he be hated, this kind of person deserves to be his uncle, I am!

Everyone is not surprised that Boss Shen pays two taels of pension money every year, because Boss Shen makes a lot of money.But Shen Mu, a 17-year-old brother, is willing to pay two taels, that is nothing more than filial piety!

Even Mrs. Liu was a little worried. The main source of income for their family was Boss Shen's monthly income of two pennies.Now that Boss Shen is dead, can they still give two taels of silver to the old house every year?

Although the family still has some savings, if the elders of the Shen family live another 20 years, that little savings will not be enough.

"Don't worry, mother, I will leave our family's money-making to me in the future." Shen Mu is not worried about this.He can read and write, and so can Mrs. Liu.Even if the two of them copy books at home and write letters for others, they can make some money.There are two medical books at home, so I can make money by going to the mountains to pick some herbs.

Even if he couldn't come up with it for a while, he still wanted to avenge his father.He knows the tricks of those gambling houses, if he can't get the money out, he has to chop his hands and feet, his father lost his life, Shen Lao Er is not bad if he loses his hand, right?

Shen Mu thought viciously, it would be even better if the gambling house worked harder and broke his leg.

He has done the calculations for the old house. The old house has ten acres of land, three acres of paddy fields are fertile land, one mu can be sold for seven taels of silver, which is 21 taels; seven acres of dry land is Susukida, and each mu can be sold for three taels of silver. It is also 21 taels.

But this is the market price, and the casino is in a hurry, so it may not be able to find a buyer so quickly.Everyone in the village is not rich, who can eat so many fields at once?Even if you want to, you are powerless.Even if you find a buyer, the price will definitely be suppressed if they see that you are in a hurry to sell.If you can't sell it yourself and directly pay it to the gambling house, the discount on the price will be even greater.

The old house of the Shen family is a mud house, only the house that the old man Shen lives in is made of blue bricks, and the roof is not like his house's red tiles, but an ordinary straw roof, and the house can only be sold for four or five at most. two silver.

Besides, based on what he knew about Old Man Shen, Old Man Shen wouldn't sell his house, and he would have to pay off debts for Second Brother Shen even if he slept on the street.

Then the vacancy of nearly ten taels of silver will depend on what Shen Laoer will do.

Today, I planted so many seeds in Old Man Shen's heart. Will Old Man Shen really sell all the land in the family to help Shen Laoer pay off his debts?

It was already afternoon when the paperwork was completed and the old village head and all the neighbors were sent away, and it was too late to go to the county, so I might as well go tomorrow.Thinking about stabilizing Old Man Shen for the time being, Second Shen couldn't do anything to him, so there was no rush.

I didn't eat lunch for a long time.Shen Mu went to the kitchen to cook a big pot of rice. Liu Shi was so angry that his lungs ached and he couldn't eat.Shen Mu thought about it, and ate a big bowl with wild vegetables and pickles.

After eating, he walked around the field, weeding weeds and catching insects. After finishing the work in the field, he put on his back basket and went to the mountain to collect firewood. He also took the medical book to identify the herbs. He will not be sure in the future You have to rely on this to make money to support your family.

It would be nice to save more money, even a penny, Shen Mu likes counting money the most.

Shen Mu has never been afraid of going up the mountain alone, and even dared to run into the deep mountain.When we played together when we were young, some kids were afraid to go deep into the mountains, but Shen Mu was not afraid.

He knew the mountain well.It's just that Mrs. Liu is afraid that he will have an accident, so she always doesn't allow him to go to the deep mountains, and scolds him every time she finds out that he goes into the deep mountains.

In order not to be scolded, Shen Mu didn't go too deep.

It's just that today he was determined to recognize the herbs according to the medical books, so he went a little further without knowing it.The plantain that looks like a weed, the prickly vegetable with purple flowers, the cocklebur that sticks to people's clothes, the dandelion that can be eaten as wild vegetables... Anyway, it is the first time to recognize it, regardless of whether it is high or low Shen Mu picked some.When the dense tree canopy covered the sunlight and reading a book was a bit taxing, I realized that I had reached the depths of the mountain forest.

Shen Mu didn't dare to be careless, put away the book, and concentrated on collecting firewood and picking the herbs that he had just read from the book.He can often come back from the deep mountains safely, mainly because he is smart and careful, always alert to the surrounding situation, so he is not easy to be bitten by snakes, insects, rats and ants, and he can run away in time when encountering relatively large beasts.

But now that she put away the book and noticed her surroundings, Shen Mu realized that something was wrong.The grass in front of me seems to have been stepped on, and the red liquid on the wild chrysanthemums is blood?

Shen Mu was startled, worried that there were some big beasts nearby, so he planned to go down the mountain.He is bold but not arrogant, he is self-aware in his heart.With such a small body, he might not be able to beat a Shiba dog, let alone a blind bear or a wild boar.

He still has an old lady at home, so he doesn't intend to make fun of his own life.

Shen Mu turned around and was about to go down the mountain, but at this moment, he saw a person lying in the grass on the right.Shen Mu tightened the pannier on his back, said a few words about Amitabha in his heart, and moved over cautiously.

It was a man, quite tall, and looked like a man.He was wearing cotton clothes, which were better than ordinary farm materials.It's just a little messy, like it hasn't been changed and washed in days.

The blood was flowing from the man's calf.Shen Mu looked at the surrounding environment, it seems that this person rolled down the hillside, his leg was cut by a stone branch, and then he passed by the grass just now, and ran here before he fell down.The injury was not serious, but when the man was turned over, his complexion was very bad, as if he had been hungry for many days, and his face was covered with mud and dust, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

After confirming that it wasn't injured by wild animals, Shen Mu felt relieved and planned to use the herbal medicine he learned from the medical book today to heal this man.

It's just that it's not safe in the mountains.Shen Mu shook the man's body, trying to wake him up and help him to the cave near the village.

The man opened his eyes in a daze—he was still alive. "Are you okay?" Shen Mu patted his face.

The man took a deep look at Shen Mu, and his eyes showed a little confusion.Then an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said to Shen Mu: "If I forget you, remember to remind me, I will definitely marry you!" His voice was not loud and weak, but his words were clear.

Then, he tilted his head and passed out again.

Shen Mu: "..." Meow meow? ?

The author has something to say: Xiaogong is finally online...

Gong: Passed out again, need everyone to collect it to wake up
