Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 629 Chapter 620 Eight: Niujiabang

Just do what you say, and you can't delay the task of guarding the house. Song Qiu is also afraid that in the middle of the night, one or two thieves will break in and steal. It is really impossible to guard against.

This time it was she who had the knife, what if next time she got into her grandma's room?
Thinking about it, Song Qiu couldn't sit still.

So on the second day, I was going to go to the town to buy people.

Du Chuanfu was worried that she would go to the town alone, and he would not stop if she let him go on vacation, so he wanted to go with her after driving the carriage.

These two couples couldn't rest, and Zou came to kowtow to her on the second day of her marriage to thank her and continued to deal with the affairs of the inner court.

Song Qiu was also emotional, thinking that when she got pregnant, Zou would let her go on vacation, and then give the baby a big silver lock.

The left and right are for people to buy, Song Qiu reckoned that there were not many people in Zeng's dental shop, so he decided to go directly to Dongling County first.

I happened to pass by Niujiabang to have a look.

She has [-] mu of paddy fields in Niujiabang, and she has never visited them once.

I bought it in my hand last year, but later I just asked Du Chuanfu to take the land deed and gave the paddy field to a family in Niujiabang Village.

It is almost time to thresh the millet at the end of the month, so go and have a look and make arrangements for rent payment.

Get up early and leave early, after passing Panshi Town and walking ten miles to Niujiabang, it's only a little over a quarter of the day.

There is a fifty-mile road from Panshi Town to Dongling County, which only passes through Jinshui Town, and Niujiabang is the first village to come out of the town.

The village is quite big. It is said that there are more than 100 households, all with mixed surnames. Among them, the surname Niu is the most, so it is called Niujiabang Village.

Because relying on the official road, the road is convenient, and almost every household has fields, and there are quite a lot of them. For example, the family that sold the fields after losing a bet, the [-] mu of paddy fields, is incredible, so this Niujiabang's life is quite prosperous.

On both sides of the path leading into the village are terraced fields, half yellow and half green ears of rice are bent over, exuding the fragrance of rice.

Du Chuanfu pointed to the large area on the left, and said to Song Qiu, "Miss, that area is connected to our family's paddy fields."

Song Qiu looked along his finger, and saw the piece by piece, which couldn't be seen at a glance, and his heart was full of joy when he saw it.

Their family used to have no land, but now they have [-] mu of land, all of which are grain, and she plans to sell the rent and exchange it for rice.

But these [-] acres of paddy fields are real millet.

One mu produces five stone grains, twenty mu is one hundred stone grains, [-]% of the rent is collected, that is, seventy stones, and then taxes are paid, one mu is eight buckets of tax, twenty mu has to pay about sixteen stone grains, and the rest The ones I have are my own, and the rice that is ground into rice is less than five thousand catties, which is enough to eat for a long time.

And the family who rented the [-] mu of land worked hard for more than half a year, and got [-]% of it, that is, [-] shi, which can be about [-] jin of ground rice, and can be sold for about ten taels of silver.

Hard work is hard work, for ordinary people, this harvest is also acceptable.

Of course, to be able to plant so many fields, strong labor is definitely indispensable.

I heard from Du Chuanfu that there are many people in this family, and there are already four generations. They are not separated, and there are about [-] strong laborers alone.

There are a lot of people, a lot of work, but also a lot of food.

Pulling the average is actually enough for food and clothing.

As soon as I entered the village, I saw a few dolls playing and playing at the entrance of the village. They were dressed in coarse cotton, unpatched and clean.

Looking at this appearance, one can tell that this village is not a backward and poor village.

Seeing a carriage coming in, the dolls stared at it curiously, but they didn't seem to have seen it before, they came together and chased after it.

After entering the village, Du Chuanfu had been here last year, and the paddy field was rented out by him. He naturally knew who the tenant was, so he just went straight to that house.

The family's surname is He. There is a large courtyard surrounded by a low wall. There are three rooms in a row in the middle, and four rooms on the left and right. Looking at the few houses dotted in the back yard, one can tell that the family has a large population.

But none of them are green brick and tile houses, they are all yellow mud walls and thatched roofs.

The wall is short, only reaching the height of an adult's chest, so you can see everything in the courtyard clearly from outside.

The yard was tidy and tidy, with straw mats spread over it, and corn was being spread out to dry.

The main room was full of people, who were rubbing and wrapping grains in full swing, and the sound of clattering, clattering, was very exciting to hear.

Du Chuanfu raised his hand and knocked on the door. Hearing movement in the main room, a man rubbed his hands and trotted out to open the door, "Who is it? Here it comes!"

The courtyard was full of corn, the man came out around the eaves on the left, opened the door, and saw Du Chuanfu outside, he was stunned, remembered who it was, and quickly invited him inside, "Is the boss here? Please come in quickly."

He hurriedly turned his head and shouted into the room, "Father! The boss is here!"

"Which owner? The steward of Fang Yuan's family is here? Oh, this bag of grain has just been taken back, and the grains have not been rubbed and dried in the sun. Is this here to ask for rent?" The old man in the main room muttered. Turning around, he hurriedly greeted him outside, "please come in and drink the sugar water. You have to be flexible for two days, let's hurry up, while the stars are rubbing corn at night, we can try to finish it in two days, shall we?"

The man gave Du Chuanfu a silly smile, led the people in, and then shouted at the old man: "No dad! He bought the paddy field from Niu Xiucai's house, our new owner!"

After saying that, the old man He also came up to him. When he saw Du Chuanfu, he was stunned and remembered.

The main reason is that Du Chuanfu came here only once last year, and he never came back. He just met once, but he had to think about it to remember what he looked like.

"Hey, my boss, hurry up, come in and sit down."

Du Chuanfu didn't introduce Song Qiucai as the boss, and Song Qiu didn't let him talk about it, so he just followed Du Chuanfu into the main room as a junior, and just listened to what he had to say.

The He family only thought that the little girl was the daughter of the boss or something, so they didn't ask much.

Straw mats are spread in the main room, so as not to scatter the rubbed grains on the ground and make it difficult to sweep them out of the nest, they can be directly rubbed on the straw mats, and can be dried after being carried out.

But there was no place to stand, so I went in to the innermost part and sat on a bench.

Soon, the honey water brought by the daughter-in-law was served in his hand. Song Qiu was holding this bowl, and there was a bee leg floating in it.

The old man He said stupidly: "We don't have any tea at home, and we don't have any entertainment. My grandchildren have worked so hard to get it back, and their faces have been swollen for a long time." Keep it for the guests.

Song Qiu listened, skipped the bee leg, opened his mouth and took a sip of water, it was very sweet, so he knew there was a lot of honey in it.

For someone like her who doesn't like tea, this honey water is even rarer.

The old man He and Du Chuanfu talked about the crops in the field again.

This year's weather is good, the crops are growing well, and the harvest is also good. Compared with last year, they have more families and take good care of the fields. They guarantee that the fields will not be damaged, and they will pay the rent on time. Quite a few, let the boss rest assured.

When it came to paying the rent, Du Chuanfu took advantage of the situation and said that when the millet was exposed, they would drive a car to pull it on which day.
