"We're separated!" Lu Qianfeng put down the firewood on his back, and looked at Lu Qianshan who was so excited, "They said that after the busy farming season, I will build a house with my second uncle's family, and then we can move out!"

He bowed deeply to Lu Qianshan, "Brother Shanshan, thank you."

Lu Qianshan looked at him fixedly. Last night, a meager merit fell on him suddenly, which made him stunned.When I saw Lu Qianfeng and Lu Qianling who had been silent today, I found a faint illusory white light between their brows.

This is the light of luck, and a mortal can have such a light of luck, which proves that great things will happen in the future.

But this light did not exist before, could it really be related to the separation of families?

He pinched his fingers to calculate, and frowned slightly.

"Brother Shanshan?" Lu Qianfeng didn't know why Lu Qianshan kept staring at him, and touched his face in a daze, but ended up rubbing the dirt on his face, looking like a cat.

Lu Qianshan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "You don't need to thank me, this is what you worked hard to get."

Lu Qianfeng shook his head and said, "If Brother Shanshan didn't help us and relieve us, we would..." He remembered the first time he came here, listening to what Lu Qianshan said to them while eating.

"It is not impossible to get out of the difficult state, but it depends on what you want to give up and what you want to get. You are too young and not qualified to fight with the sky; but you are not good at fighting with people. When you understand If you understand what the other party cares about, then you have already succeeded in half."

What does the other party care about?Care about face, care about the reputation of a scholar.But these are not what I care about.He went back and discussed with Lu Jinlin for a long time, and discussed with his parents for a long time, and finally knew what he was going to do.

Originally, parents had a glimmer of hope for their grandparents, uncles and brothers, and hoped that the eldest brother would be an official so that they could live a good life.But ever since Lu Xiuxiu pushed her mother down for miscarriage, this glimmer of hope was completely shattered.

They don't care about their parents at all, let alone themselves.In this case, they don't need each other to lead the engine!

Sure enough, the reputation and face of the family's scholars are what grandpa values ​​most, but he also knows that he can't poke at these directly, so he can only start with Lu Zhang's side.Everyone in the village knows Lu Zhang's bad treatment of his second uncle and parents, so let's make these bad things bigger.

"Brother Shanshan," Lu Qianfeng said again: "From now on, we will send you firewood every day, but no money."

Lu Qianshan smiled and said, "How can this be..."

"Brother Shanshan!" Lu Qianfeng said loudly: "I asked my father, even in the county town, a load of firewood is only three or four pennies. The firewood my brother and I cut is not enough for a load, but Brother Shanshan Not only gave us five Wen, but also eggs and pancakes. But in the village, such a load of firewood is only one or two Wen. Before, I took advantage of it. At that time, my mother had nothing to eat, medicine It’s not enough to eat, me, I just...but now grandpa and grandma don’t dare not give my mother food, and I gave a basket of eggs, brown sugar, and new medicines. Brother Shanshan, we can no longer It's not good to take advantage of you, what if others come to take advantage of it?"

Lu Qianshan raised his hand and patted his head, and said, "I'll give you two pennies after that, are you willing?"

"Yes!!" Lu Qianfeng was extremely happy.

Lu Qianshan said again: "Then are you willing to work here? You also know that I am very busy here."

Lu Qianfeng shook his head and said, "I discussed it with my sister, and now, although we say we have separated, the land from uncle and uncle's family will be planted together with my uncle's family, and the land of grandparents will also be a lot of work. My son. Now we are thinking of helping our parents to finish the work in the field quickly so that they can rest more. But I will also deliver firewood every day. I will deliver firewood in the morning and work in the afternoon. hold up."

Lu Qianshan said: "That's fine too, but since you're separated, you'll have to live your own life in the future. Have you ever thought about studying?"

read?Lu Qianfeng and Lu Qianling looked at each other, finally shook their heads, and said, "No, studying is too expensive. Although the family is separated, grandpa didn't give us any money, so we still have to build a house after giving us three taels."

"Our family Qianhai and Qiancheng are both studying. If you want to study, you can come over after they finish school every day and let them teach you for an hour,"

"Really?" Lu Qianfeng's eyes lit up.It is a great thing to be able to read and write. Nowadays, those who can read and write can earn a lot more money than those who cannot read and write.

Lu Qianshan smiled and said, "Of course it's true, when have I lied to you?"

"Then, can we come here today?" The faces of the two children blushed with excitement.

Lu Qianshan nodded.

Lu Qianfeng and Lu Qianling were so excited that they didn't know what to say.

Lu Qianshan thought for a while and said: "Then you have separated now, who will take care of the third grandma's affairs?"

Lu Qianfeng laughed loudly, "Brother Shanshan, you don't know, my uncle and my fourth uncle got into a fight yesterday, and almost moved his hands, which made my grandfather faint from anger. It was my second uncle who went to town The doctor was invited here.

He couldn't help but talk about what happened last night.

Now that the family is separated, the family cannot be without someone to work.Now it will not be so easy to order people from the second and third families, Lu Datian is also determined to keep a son by his side.And Lu Guanghui is the most suitable one.He neither reads nor is he an honest person. He said that he went to the county town to help out for the purpose of eating, drinking and having fun.Lu Datian also knew that Lu Guanghui had been living in Lu Qianting's father-in-law's house during this time. Although he never said anything, it was nothing serious.

But Lu Guanghui lived comfortably in the county town. Looking at those colorful worlds, how could he be willing to return to the village to live a hard life?He was naturally unwilling, and wanted Lu Guangzeng to speak for him.But Lu Guangzeng couldn't get to the point, so Lu Datian clenched his teeth so that he would not let Lu Guanghui go out again.

Who is Lu Guanghui?It's shameless to take advantage of hob meat.From the fact that his second brother and third brother's whole family were working in the past, but he could eat and drink behind Lu Datian, it can be seen that this person has a stomach full of bad ideas and sensibility.

Now that the second child and the third child are separated from the family, let him suffer and farm at home, what can he do?

So, he simply dragged Lu Guangzeng into the water.

Lu Guanghui's words were very generous, and he said: "Since I am not allowed to go to the county seat, then my eldest brother should not even think about going. He has been studying for so many years and has always been a child student, so he will never pass the examination of a scholar. Besides, there are also some students in my eldest brother's family. It is enough to be a scholar. Our Lu family has two scholars and two officials in the future. Food, drink, and clothes, parents probably haven’t seen them before, right? You probably don’t know how much dowry my sister-in-law has prepared for golden branches and jade leaves, which is much more than our old girl’s. How did the money come from? It’s not at home People worked hard to earn it?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Guangzeng was annoyed, and he said to Lu Datian: "Father, don't listen to the nonsense of the fourth brother. The teacher said that although I failed to pass the exam this year, it was because of bad luck. I will definitely pass tomorrow. Passed the exam!"

"Don't let it go. If you fail the exam every year, you don't plan to be a scholar at all. You just want to get money from home to have fun." Lu Guanghui hugged his shoulders and looked foolish, "Don't say brother, I won't help you. But you have also seen that the second and third children are now separated, and only me and dad can't finish the work in the family. You are the boss of the family, who will do the work if you don't work?"

Lu Guangzeng said angrily: "My second and third son planted my land for me, so what else should I do?"

"Hey, listen to me. Do you think it's your family's land? Isn't your father and mother's land? The chickens and pigs in our yard don't need to be fed? They all have to be done by people? Is it possible? You just let your brother and I do it all? Let your brother and his wife do it? Which family has this kind of advantage? Going to the brothel for the boss to find a sister?" Lu Guanghui didn't want to separate the family, nor did he want to work more.And he also knew that it would be fine even if he broke up with Lu Guangzeng, because Lu Qianting really looked down on his father.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lu Qianting and said with a smile: "Nephew, it's not what fourth uncle said. Your father spends his days and nights in the city, do you think others will say good things about you? Then you will be considered an official. Turn around and you Daddy and Sister Bao are stabbed out, and they say that you are not upright and your lower beam is crooked, so what should you do? This scholar's mouth is stronger than a knife."

Lu Qianting's expression changed, and he said, "Even so, I can only admit that he is my father after all." As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Guanghui and nodded slightly.

Lu Guanghui's smile grew wider, "Listen, Dad, what a good man our eldest nephew is. Dad, you want to separate the family for the sake of our family's reputation as a scholar, but what about my elder brother? He won't care about my eldest nephew's reputation, Now when my eldest nephew becomes an official, he will be the father of the official, and he will go out with my eldest nephew to misbehave, father, if you want to control it at that time, you won't be able to control it."

"You're talking nonsense!! You, you're such a mess!!!" Lu Guangzeng was furious, "What kind of bastard are you? When I was in the city, I asked me for money to eat and drink; now you turn your face and don't recognize anyone? Think Want to bite back? My sister Bao? Don’t you have a sister Bao?”

Lu Datian looked at the eldest son, then at the fourth son, his head was buzzing, "Shut up...shut up!! I tell you to shut up!!" After shouting, he fell back straight and gasped fainted.

This frightened Mrs. Lu Zhang, she rushed over with a cry, "Old man, what's the matter with you? Oh, don't scare me!!" She turned her head and glared at her eldest son, then shrank away The second and third child scolded: "It's both of you who have no conscience. If you didn't fight to separate the family, your father would be so angry???"

Lu Qianfeng was displeased when he heard it, "Grandma, what are you talking about? My grandpa was pissed off by my uncle, fourth uncle, Sister Bao, but what is Sister Bao?"

Mrs. Lu Zhang glanced at him angrily, said something indiscriminately, and said: "Hurry up and invite your father to be a doctor!!"

Lu Guangfu gave Lu Guangcai a hand and said, "Mother, don't worry, the two of us will invite you right away."

Mrs. Lu Zhang scolded fiercely: "Are you pretending to be a filial son and grandson at this time? Why didn't you pretend to be a filial son when the family was separated just now?"

The village chief and the patriarch hadn't left yet. After watching the farce, they couldn't leave, and they were even more restless here.Hearing this persuasion, he said: "Old sister, what you said is wrong, isn't it your son who split up the family? Besides, what does this matter have to do with Guangfu Guangcai? Old sister can't be partial to this, right? Forget it, I won’t eat today, Guangfu, I’ll go with you to the town to invite a doctor. Go to my house and build a car, and you can hurry up.” After speaking, he grabbed the patriarch, and several people Shi Shi ran away.

"Later when my grandfather woke up, my uncle was not allowed to go to study. My father and my second uncle went to the city with my elder brother to help him get back the things left in the county. Not only my uncle could not go to the city, but my uncle's mother You can't go with Jin Zhi Yu Ye either. There was a lot of trouble yesterday." Lu Qianfeng said very relieved, and his eyebrows were beaming.

What a dog-eat-dog farce.

After seeing off the two brothers Lu Qianfeng, Lu Qianshan sat on the kang and meditated.

He had seen Lu Guangfu and Lu Guangcai's face before, and he was miserable and lonely all his life.Whether Lu Jinlin or Lu Qianfeng, they all looked short-lived.But it's just that they separated, Lu Qianfeng and Lu Qianling's brows had luck, so did Lu Jinlin?

However, it can also be seen that both Lu Datian and Lu Zhang's family are long-lived, but this longevity is indeed on the two families of Lu Guangfu and Lu Guangcai. As long as these two families do not stand up, then the old couple will live a long life .Now that the two families have turned over, they don't know whether Lu Datian and Lu Zhang's can live longer.

The two Lu Guangfu brothers now have hope, and they are full of energy when working.The food is also full because of the rations. Zhao's cooking is very good, even simple fried pickles can make a delicious taste.In fact, at this time, even if they ate pickled vegetables, they could taste the meat.

After all, better days are ahead.

The ginseng given by Mrs. Wang played a big role. After half a month, Mrs. Sun's face became rosy and her body was not so weak anymore.Adding one egg a day and a cup of brown sugar water, I was able to work in the fields in less than a month.

Lu Datian drank the medicine for a few days, struggled to get up from the kang, and insisted on bringing his eldest son, eldest daughter-in-law, fourth son and fourth daughter-in-law down to the field.He said that they don't need to plant the land of the old couple, but the rations for the eldest and fourth child will come from five acres of land.The five acres of land will be given to the boss and the old four, how much to harvest and how much to eat.

But because of farming, Lu Guangzeng and Lu Guanghui almost fought again.

Lu Guangzeng has been Lu Datian's hope since he was a child, and he has no land in China at all.His daughter-in-law, Xiao Zhang, is also Lu Zhang's distant niece. After marrying in, she lives like a young grandmother, and naturally she doesn't know how to farm.As for Lu Guanghui and Wang Shi, these two people know how to farm, but they are just lazy.

Several people cursed and cursed on the ground, attracting a group of people to watch.Lu Guanghui directly said that he only planted two and a half acres, and what he harvested was his own ration.As for the remaining two and a half acres, it was planted for Lu Guangzeng, and he could eat as much as he harvested.However, Lu Guangzeng's land rent is public, and if it is distributed, it must be distributed equally.

These two brothers can be said to be completely torn apart.

When Lu Qianshan was delivering meals to his father and brother, he saw the two brothers arguing in the distance, and he just smiled faintly.Lu Guangming, on the other hand, was very worried, and said while eating: "There are still quarrels at this time, so don't hurry up and clean up the floor. If it drags on, the income will be reduced."

The land is the life of a farmer, so he naturally looks down on those who ruin the field.

The land of Lu Qianshan's family is well maintained. They have planted corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and rice, and a few acres of soybeans.Now everywhere is lush green, and the winter wheat has grown up to the calf height, which is rare no matter how you look at it.

And half of the land of Lu Datian's family has not been taken care of.This is the result of the busy work of Lu Guangfu and his two families, but the two brothers have already tidied up all the land allocated to their own family, and are now tidying up the land that Lu Guangfa and Lu Guangzeng gave them.Moreover, the children of the two families also went to the field to help, and the ten acres of land could be obtained within a few days.

What's still messed up is where Lu Datian, his father and mother and Lu Guanghui live.

Lu Datian hired someone, gritted his teeth to clean up his five acres of land by himself, and refused to let Lu Guangfu and his brothers help.He couldn't swallow it.Lu Guangzeng and Lu Guanghui quarreled on the ground every day, attracting a group of people to watch.

Lu Datian looked at the land allocated to Lu Guanghui with vague eyes.These five acres of land are actually planted with winter wheat. In the spring, you only need to plow the field, fertilize and weed.But the two brothers couldn't do such an easy job well, and they blamed each other.Look at Lu Guangfu and Lu Guangcai's side, even a few children were working hard with hoes, and a large area of ​​land was cleared up in a short while.

Why is this so?Lu Datian really couldn't figure it out.

Lu Qianshan entrusted someone to buy two couples who know how to grow medicine, with a son, who looks in his 30s but not 40 years old.He arranged the couple to grow medicine in Zhuangzi.Since Zhuangzi has been made into a spirit gathering array by him, it is very comfortable to enter. Even the trees, flowers, grass and fields in Zhuangzi grow better than outside, lush and lush, which makes people happy.

Time passed quickly, and it was autumn in a blink of an eye.

After the busy spring, the whole village came to help Lu Guangfu and his brothers build a house.The brothers didn't choose to build houses near the old house, but chose places not far from Lu Guangming's house.

The adobe house is easy to build, and it was put on the roof in less than ten days. The three rooms of the family are very spacious and can surround a large yard. Even if there are more children, there is still time to build a house in the yard.The house could be lived in after two days of fumigation, and the brothers moved happily, leaving Lu and Zhang's hatred behind.

Lu Qianshan asked Zhou and Zeng Hongmei to deliver a basket of eggs to each of their families, and caught two hens that were laying eggs and a piece of meat.This is the most important gift in the village, and it also makes people feel the attitude of Lu Guangming's family towards the two brothers.

Lu Jinlin helped Lu Qianfeng and his brothers chop firewood every day and got a copper coin.The money was carefully saved by Mrs. Zhao, and today they moved to invite people to eat, and they used the money to buy meat and vegetables. The two families set up six or seven tables together, and invited many people who had a good relationship on weekdays.

Mrs. Zhou and Zeng Hongmei were sitting in the room, while Lu Guangming and Lu Qianfan were helping outside.Lu Datian brought Lu Zhangshi and Lu Guangzeng and Lu Guanghui brothers to come too. Lu Zhangshi became sullen when he saw Zhou Shi, but he didn't dare to scold.After all, that slap made her suffer a lot, and she never wanted to be slapped like that again in this life.

Lu Guangzeng and Lu Guanghui sat on the mat outside, looking around sullenly.Lu Guanghui was thick-skinned, joking and chatting with the people around him. While eating, he picked up the meat and said: "My second brother and third brother are hiding something, and they can make such a table. They usually pretend to be It’s quite honest, this private house money is not missing.”

Lu Qianfeng, who was helping during the dinner, listened and said loudly: "What is this fourth uncle talking about? What kind of private money did my second uncle hide from my parents? Back when the family was separated, the division was clear, and grandpa gave it to you for three or two. Money. My second uncle and my father went out to help my grandma to earn money. As for the money for buying rice noodles, it was earned by me, my sister and my brother selling firewood. What? Fourth uncle is not used to eating That’s right, after all, you eat hot and spicy food in the city, how can you get used to these things in our village.”

It was a happy event, but the people around praised Lu Datian's son for being filial and capable, but it was ruined by Lu Guanghui's words.

Lu Datian was furious, "I can't stop you from eating!"

Lu Guanghui shrugged, not taking Lu Datian's anger seriously.

After Lu Qianfeng finished speaking, he ignored them and went to work on his own.Brother Shanshan was right, as long as he took care of Lu Datian's sore spot, he would naturally press down on Lu Guangzeng and Lu Guang and tell them not to make trouble.

This housewarming is over, but in the eyes of others, as long as they move out of the old house of Lu Datian's family, they can live well. Otherwise, you can see that the shoulders of Lu Guangfu and his brothers are not collapsed, and their faces are also rosy. , Even a few children are very energetic.As for the people living in that old house, they quarreled every day, and the land could not be planted well.

But Lu Qianshan didn't care about these things anymore, he was busy making fruit wine.

There are many fruit trees in the mountains, besides the common apples, pears and peaches, there are also plums, pomegranates and cherries.In addition to these fruits, there are also nuts such as pine nuts, walnuts, etc.

As soon as the weather is hot, the fruits begin to ripen one after another. In autumn, the orchard is already full of harvest.

Lu Qianshan asked Cui Zhuangtou to tidy up several spacious warehouses, which were specially used for large wine-making tanks.After mashing the fruit, add koji and stir evenly, and put sugar in proportion to wait for fermentation.Lu Qianshan also drew a formation in the vat to ensure that delicious fruit wine can be brewed.

And the key to the warehouse was held in Lu Qianshan's own hands.

The money earned during this period allowed Lu Qianshan to buy the mountain land next to Zhuangzi. The mountain land was also cheap, and the increase of a few hundred mu was only a few hundred taels of silver.Now their family has no shortage of money, and they can sell a lot of sauces every day, but the number of people who send to the imperial city every month has become a small head.There are even many merchants in the capital who are willing to come here to buy some sauces, and the price can be doubled several times after buying, so basically they can be sold out when they are put on the shelves.

The workshop was really too busy, so Lu Qianshan simply found the two largest sauce merchants in the capital and sold the sauce recipes to them respectively.One family got meat sauce and barbecue ingredients, while the other got oyster sauce, seafood soy sauce, and fermented bean curd recipes.Lu Qianshan didn't want money, he only took shares, and made it clear that part of the shares would be given to a certain royal family member.He also took out the jade pendant to show them.

With this jade pendant in place, as long as the Zhong family does not collapse, the monthly dividends will continue to enter Lu Qianshan's pocket.

After the fruit wine was brewed, more than a dozen jars of fruit wine plus some red ingredients were sent to Zhong Yulin.

When receiving the first dividend, Zhong Yulin, who hadn't taken it seriously, was stunned.He really didn't expect that the gadgets that Lu Qianshan made by himself were so valuable!
