Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 500;

Chapter five hundred and second; Longxi came to strong slaves again

The old lady didn't care about everything on the surface, but from the corner of her eye, everyone in the main hall was taken in. The owner of the house fell into deep thought after hearing his strange words, and the old lady closed her eyes again.

A servant came in from outside, bowed to Li Yu, turned around and bowed to the old lady, and then stood up again;

"Patriarch, the elders of the twenty major surnames are all in order, and they are waiting in the wing room. I dare not ask the Patriarch if they can let them come in for a visit?"

"Oh! Call them all in!"

"Yes."

The servant who reported the letter saluted again, and when he left, he bowed respectfully to the old lady again, and left in a hurry.

The old lady smiled and asked the daughters next to her;
"Huh? Why does this monkey boy who announces the letter look like Qilang in the fifth room of the Liang family? He really looks like the seventh son of the Liang family."

The eldest daughter of the old lady, who was in charge of all the wives in the mansion before, lowered her head and replied with a smile;

"Returning to A Niang, it is Liang Qi's eldest son who has become a small steward under Li Zhong."

"I said, why do they look so similar? It turns out that Qilang's son is so big? I still remember that when Aye was four or five years old, he always came to our house eagerly to eat and drink. Why is this? In the blink of an eye, his cub has grown so big?"

"Aniang, you forgot, my son is already in his early sixties, and Liang Laoqi is not much younger than my son."

"Yes, Ma'am, the eldest sister is in her early sixties, and my son is in his fifties this year."

"Oh! Isn't that right, you are all so big..."

Before the old lady could say a few words, a large group of people began to come in one after another. They had met the Patriarch, they were excused, and they all came to meet the old lady.

Ma Benchu, the chief manager of the granary, came over very casually;
"Sister, I heard that you came to the mansion last night?"

"Yeah, I plan to live in the mansion for a while. Have you recovered from your cough recently? Remember to take some bitter medicine, you will have to take it for a few more days!"

"Oh, I see, sister, you don't need to eat if everything is healed."

"That's not okay."

A large group of elders greeted each other and went back to sit down. They were all old men, and the youngest was the eldest son of the old lady. Mr. Liu, who was in charge of carriages and horses, had nineteen surnames in Li's second house, and there were two Lius. One is the surname Liu of the old lady's family, the other is the surname of the old lady's children's relatives, and Mrs. Liu's husband's family is also surnamed Liu.

Mrs. Liu's patriarch surnamed Liu is a child. Who is it? It's Mrs. Liu's son, Liu Tiedan. This guy's grandfather died early, and his father died several years later. This guy has inherited the status of the patriarch. A teenage boy sitting in the middle of a group of old men is as awkward as he wants.

But it doesn't matter, Mrs. Liu entrusts the elders of the Liu family to take care of the affairs of Liu's family. I'm afraid it will take at least 20 years before it is handed over to her son.

The only newcomer today is Aye of Zou Shuyi, who is in charge of the Agricultural University. As the head of the No. 20 surname of Li's second house, Mrs. Zou will naturally be invited to discuss matters.

This old Mr. Zou has never been so prosperous as this year. Now, all the farmers who have escaped from the disaster, regardless of refugees, have entered the household registration of the Zou surname, and the first name of the No. 20 surname is himself!
Can it not be beautiful? Since the household registration of the farm households fell, everyone has breathed a sigh of relief. This time, they are down-to-earth, and they are no longer afraid that their children and grandchildren will starve to death in disaster years.

Nowadays, those old farmers, regardless of gender, old or young, will salute and greet Aye when they see Zou Shuyi, nonsense!The parents of their own family can't be sloppy, and almost none of the farmers are unhappy about a big head coming out of the refugees.

The head of this faction is from refugees and refugees, of course it is the most beautiful, but it is a pity that the Zou family, which belongs to the refugee faction, only has Zou Shuyi as the chief steward, and the other two siblings of the Zou family are the second steward. It is really not enough to watch.

The day before yesterday solved the problems that had plagued the farmers for many years. The five villages of the Li family kept their lights on until midnight, and everyone was happy and happy. On the contrary, the family that was most concerned about the food and cloth for the birth of a child had no one to pick it up for the past two days. , are in a hurry to celebrate!
Yesterday I heard that there was going to be a gathering of the parents of the [-]th surname today, Zou Shuyi went to beg one of the three major tailors' disciples overnight with a heavy gift, and made this set of clothes for her Aye overnight to participate in today's situation.

Even though Old Master Zou sat in the row on Li Yu's right hand and was the last one, Old Master Zou still had a red face.

Li Yu took a look and sat down before speaking;
"The parents with the 3000th surname are invited to come here today. We have to discuss the two or three thousand people who came from the old nest in Longxi. I heard that a new house was built here and they traveled thousands of miles happily. Now they are temporarily living in the relatives' houses of various families.

How to arrange them, all the parents also talk about their own opinions, we discuss it. "

"It's the head of the house."

"Yes."

"It's the head of the house."

Ma Benchu ​​was the first to speak;
"Patriarch, I don't think it's ok to live here for the time being, and we're not outsiders. After all, Longxi and our side are all one family, all relatives on relatives, or wait until the Patriarch finishes building the remaining half of the old village in front of us. Then arrange for them?"

Li Yu didn't respond clearly, but just reached out to comfort Ma Benchu;

"Sit down, sit down, who told you to stand up? How can there be so many vulgar etiquette when you are old? When you talk again, just sit and talk. Tie Dan, you can't do it. You have to stand up when you talk. You're not old at all, so don't try to fool me by pretending to be old."

Tiedan, who was just 16 years old, smiled and stood up to answer;

"Respect the life of the family."

The conversation between the master and the servant immediately made the atmosphere in the main hall more than ten times more relaxed. The old lady Liu remained silent, looking at the son of her most beloved little girl,
Like the head of the family, he has a noble status in his teens. This bastard is not only the patriarch of the same surname, but also the youngest second steward of Li's second house.

Moreover, he is also the steward of the big wine making workshop that the owner is very fond of. Mrs. Liu firmly believes that in time, this brat will become more capable, and no matter how old the steward Xiao is, he will definitely stand up to the boss Xiao!The old lady loves her house and her cubs, the more she looks at this bastard, the more pleasing she is...

Li Yu then looked at the elders in the hall;

"If Martha is in charge, what do you think, just say what you want to say, and discuss it."

"Patriarch, I think it's too crowded. We didn't live in a spacious room. Almost every family has relatives coming. Some families have more than a dozen people at once. too convenient.

Let’s just talk about this new house, the owner, what you told me is that only the location of the five ghosts can be used as a hut, and you can’t mess around in other places, otherwise you will be punished by God. , everyone is getting more and more comfortable, the Patriarch is indeed extremely powerful and knows everything. "

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, many people commented;

"That's right, Mr. Liang, don't you look at the size of our Li family's study. Many rooms are full of books and bamboo slips. The owner of the house is extremely intelligent. Of course, he can find out the laws of heaven and earth from the knowledge of our ancestors." gone."

"That's right, the Patriarch is such a character, it's easy to find out God's testimonials."

Boss Liang who spoke earlier frowned and continued;

"The new house is good, but this hut is not enough. Unlike our old houses, if you put a shack in any corner, it will be another hut..."

When Li Yu heard that the huts were not enough, he interjected strangely;
"How could it not be enough? When I first built it, the two latrines I specially built by the public loser were next to each other, one for men and one for women. Why wasn't it enough?

Besides, the thatched hut is now connected to the underground passage. After using it, pour some water to wash it. Although there is still a smell, it is much stronger than the previous hut, right? "

"That's right, the method you think of, master, is really powerful. It's not better than before. It's really clean and scary, and the smell is only a little bit left. As long as you are diligent and rinse it in time, there is almost no smell. of."

"That's right! Patriarch's methods are really powerful, but they are really not enough. My family is doing the same now. There are hundreds of people from Longxi, and I have allocated them.
Now there are four or five people living in each household here, and some have seven or eight people. When they wake up in the morning, they are all scrambling to go to the hut. Fortunately, the owner of the hut was built by the woman and the man. , otherwise it is even more insufficient. "

"Yeah, it's the same at my house!"

Li Yu frowned and said;

"Isn't it? It's enough. If there are too many people, there will be a queue. But there are more than a dozen public huts built in Zhuangzi, and they can also be used."

"Hey, Patriarch, you don't know something. Of course, those of us in Lantian know about the public latrines, but those from Longxi don't understand. They haven't seen or heard of it, and they won't go out even if they are killed."

"Patriarch, it's not good to live with too many men and women, and it's inconvenient. Otherwise, I think the newly built new houses around the brewery will be distributed. Do you think it's okay?"

Li Yu directly rejected it;
"No, as I have already said before, if a family needs to live in a separate family and live in another family, how can it disappoint the clansmen if each family is assigned a new house? Besides, the consideration is to live in a separate family. The houses are not too big, and they are not suitable for the people from Longxi to live in."

"What the head of the family said is very reasonable."

"Yes, yes, Sun Da, you don't have to think about it. What the Patriarch has already said, you have to redistribute these new houses. What is An's mind? Do you want the Patriarch to lose his trust?"

"You! You spitting blood! The surname Ji, you speak with conscience, am I that kind of person, don't put any shit on my head, I think you are the one who is uneasy and kind, and your whole family is not at ease!"

"Who are you saying that the whole family is not safe and kind? Our surname Ji is in charge of the entire Li family's household registration and is loyal. How can we be uneasy and kind? Why do you want to fight, you old rascal?"

"What's the matter? Who are you scaring? Think I'm afraid you won't succeed. Let's talk about it after a while! I'll tell you to put a shit bowl on my head. Today I have to beat you to death."

The two old men in their [-]s and [-]s raised the bar in an instant, and they got really angry when they talked, and they wanted to go out to fight. The head of the family surnamed Liang next to him immediately came out to persuade;

"Okay, okay, the two of you have never dealt with each other since you were young, and you are still in your [-]s and [-]s, and you still have to toss about it, really! When the old patriarch was here, I judged your two families dozens of times, but you still can't figure it out, so you can't Shall we call the patriarch of this generation An Sheng An Sheng?"

The two old men seemed to be very proud of the parents surnamed Liang, and they were all angry after listening to the persuasion.

The old man surnamed Sun said angrily;

"Huh! What is it! I'm pooh!"

The old man surnamed Ji also opened his mouth wide to reveal a mouth with only three teeth left, and immediately followed suit, and the two turned their heads to the side without looking at each other.

Li Yu, who was sitting at the top, saw two old men in their 80s and [-]s wanting to have a fight, and wanted to go out and have a laugh before coming in, but as the head of the family, he was talking about serious things at the moment, and it was not easy to go out and wander around , can only desperately hold back the smile.

The grandfather of Hou Sanlang who was given the surname Li frowned and spoke;

"Patriarch, I don't know if the nine rows at the end of our Zhuangzi, which are reserved for outsiders, can be allocated to relatives from Longxi?
It would be great if it could be distributed. I went to Brother Ji to read Longxilai’s household registration booklet, and I calculated carefully twice last night. some too! "

The old man hadn't spoken yet, another old man interrupted again;

"Brother, what you said was mainly sold by the family to outsiders. Our Li family spent a lot of money to subsidize the construction of Zhuangzi, and even took all the grain and exchanged it for wood. If we don't change the big hole, Is it too much of a loss to get some money back?"

"Isn't it? The construction of Zhuangzi this time has cost a lot of money. How can we not sell some money back? How can we divide those?"

"The problem is that there is no distinction between this and that, and it's inconvenient to live in different households. It doesn't work either way. How can we solve it?"

"Isn't it? Anyway, I told you guys to finish talking, what else did others say?"

Li Yu stretched out his hands;

"Okay, okay, don't argue anymore, I've made the decision, and I'll allocate the nine rows of new houses in the back to the clansmen from Longxi to live in. As for the exchange of money, I won't say no until the rest of the old village here is completed. Chi, money can never be earned at any time, and the important matter of the clansman's residence is important, so we can't delay any longer."

As soon as Li Yu opened his mouth, everyone shut their mouths and quickly nodded in agreement.

"It's the head of the house."

"Yes."

"As ordered."

Li Yu smiled and arranged;

"This matter will be handed over to Director Sun of the timber warehouse, who will be responsible for the distribution together with Director Ji who is in charge of the household registration. Come on! Pass on the word and inform the two managers that the distribution must be completed within three days.
The people from Longxi received two iron pots per household, two sets of Eight Immortal tables, and six Taishi chairs, and then spread the word to those carpenters who came to the mansion for a gathering. in case for need. "

"only!"

Li Yi, who was on duty in the hall, readily agreed, and immediately left the main hall with four of his subordinates.

The two old men who had just quarreled were disgusted when they heard that their two families were in charge of the same matter, and they rolled their eyes at each other at the same time.

Here Mrs. Liu also covered the corners of her mouth with a silk scarf and laughed straight away. A group of old men looked at the two old men who quarreled every now and then, thinking in their hearts why the current Patriarch is the same as the previous Patriarch, always arranging these two rivals to run errands together. Strange...

Mrs. Liu's granddaughter and granddaughter all lowered their heads and snickered. The patriarchs of the two surnames, Sun and Ji, have been rivals since childhood. They fought many times when they were young, and they quarreled when they met. It's a headache to see these two. The new owner is lucky, but he has to hand over this errand to the two. Isn't this adding fuel to the fire?
"Okay, the matter has been discussed. People come and ask Longxi's family to come in. Don't waste time. Hurry up and meet with the clansmen of Longxi so that everyone can live safely. The distribution will be completed within three days, and today will be counted." , after we meet in a while, the two of you can go on errands."

"It's the head of the house."

"Yes."
