It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 168 Temptation (May [-])
Wang Hanping sighed, and the Patriarch Wang said helplessly, "It's on the first floor of the chest of drawers in the left wing of the ancestral hall."

After Wang Xingda heard what the patriarch said, he didn't dare to run away in a hurry, he looked around first, and saw that no one was saying anything, so he just ran away.

Seeing Wang Xingda running away in an instant, Su Chendong said with emotion, "Cousin Xingda... really, really, really, um... really running really fast."

Meng Mingzhou nodded in agreement.

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were brought, and Meng Mingzhou asked the patriarch to write the document, but the patriarch held the pen for a long time without moving, and finally put down the pen and said hesitantly: "Well, boy Mingzhou, I can read, but because I haven't practiced, I don't know how to write." I don't know how to write, so..."

Meng Mingzhou "...The patriarch means that I will write it?"

The royal patriarch nodded.

Meng Mingzhou sighed inwardly, accepted his fate, took the pen, stood at the original position of the royal patriarch, and began to write quickly. After a while, two identical documents were written out, and Meng Mingzhou signed his own on both. name, and then handed the pen to the royal patriarch.

The head of the patriarch Wang observed carefully and saw that they were all correct, so he also signed his name. Yes, the name was written by himself. Although he may not be able to write other characters, he still knows the name.

Meng Mingzhou, "Patriarch Wang, it's like this, I have another idea now."

The royal patriarch carefully put away one of the documents before he asked, "Any other ideas?"

Meng Mingzhou smiled, "I wonder if you can peel the chestnuts for us?"

The patriarch of the royal family was puzzled, "Shelling?"

Meng Mingzhou nodded affirmatively, "Yes, shelling, I will pay the wages."

The patriarch of the royal family waved his hand, "Hey, it's not a matter of unpaid wages, but if the chestnuts are peeled, they can only be stored for two or three days, and they are not as durable as the ones with the shells."

Meng Mingzhou smiled, "It's definitely not for you to strip them all at once,"

I thought it would be fine for two or three days, but now they need at least fifty or sixty catties of chestnuts a day, right?If two hundred catties are peeled off at a time, it can be used for about three days.

Patriarch Wang, "Well, then you mean to peel some chestnuts, take some?"

Meng Mingzhou nodded, "Well, let's peel about two hundred catties today. I'll take them away tomorrow morning, and then find someone to send you food and the rest of the money when I go back. As for the wages for peeling chestnuts, I will pay you every time I collect chestnuts. Just give it to you, can you take a look?"

The royal patriarch pondered for a moment, "Looking for someone to deliver food? Is it hired? What about fetching chestnuts? Is it also hired?"

Meng Mingzhou nodded, thinking in his heart that he must be hiring someone, the entire Su family is full of children, only two adults, one is in poor health and needs to lie down, and the other is just a woman.

The patriarch of the royal family glanced at Wang Hanping, saw Wang Hanping nodding to him, and said, "You said before that if we send chestnuts, we will give you a penny for a catty of chestnuts, right?"

Meng Mingzhou knew what the Patriarch Wang meant, and the moment he looked at Wang Hanping, he figured it out.

"We don't have the time and energy to come here every two days to pick up chestnuts. It would be best if the royal patriarch could arrange for someone to deliver them."

The head of the royal family is very happy. The land near their Wangjia village is very barren. Except for the season when the chestnuts are ripe, they are very leisurely. If they send chestnuts every two days, even if they send two hundred catties, they still have two hundred cash. They are peeling chestnuts. There is also a silver income, which can be sent to 55 families in turn, so that each family has a silver income.

"Then it's settled."

Meng Mingzhou nodded, "By the way, peeling chestnuts, well, it's just a penny and a catty."

The patriarch Wang was pleasantly surprised. He had just heard that the chestnuts were going to be peeled, and he thought that he would only give a few tens of pennies for two hundred catties at most.

"Then, then I'll go and tell someone to peel it for you and take it away tomorrow."

Meng Mingzhou, "Okay, please trouble the patriarch."

Su Rui was lying on the recliner in the front yard, basking in the sun, and was falling asleep when she heard the sound of the door opening. She looked up and saw Liu De coming out of the house. By the way, Liu De's family also came It's been several days, and it's really rare to see him go out.

Liu De also saw Su Rui, and hurriedly saluted, "Hello Miss."

Su Rui smiled, "Uncle De, you're welcome, you should come out to bask in the sun more often, it's good for your health."

Liu De nodded, "Yes, yes, I feel much better these two days."

Ms. Liu just came out of the kitchen and saw her family member talking to Su Rui, she hurriedly answered: "He rarely coughs anymore, it seems that Dr. Sun's medicine is really effective."

Su Rui smiled, "That's really effective, but I still have to drink another course of treatment. When cousin Mingzhou comes back, I'll go to Dr. Sun's again."

Su Rui smiled, but she really wanted to say in her heart: "It has nothing to do with Dr. Sun. You must know that Dr. Sun said at the time that his cough would never get better. As for why his cough gradually improved, of course it was mainly her." He is nourished by the spiritual spring water."

Mother Liu expressed her sincere gratitude, "Thank you Miss."

"Mother Liu, you have lived in my house for the past few days, and you should understand that I am not the kind of person who likes to hear words of gratitude from people. If you really thank me, live well and be the best for me. answer."

Mother Liu nodded, "Yes, I will definitely take care of myself, and then I will take care of you and other ladies and young masters."

Su Rui really didn't want to squeeze her to serve their family for the rest of her life, but looking at her serious expression, she felt helpless.

“………You just want to be happy.”

Liu De thought about Meng Mingzhou, thought for a moment and asked, "I don't know how Master Mingzhou is doing now?"

Su Rui continued to close her eyes and meditate. She trusted Meng Mingzhou very much.

"Cousin Mingzhou is sure everything is going well, don't worry."

When Liu De and his wife saw that Su Rui believed in their young master so much, they also smiled knowingly at each other.

At night, when Su Chenrui learned what had happened, he grabbed Meng Mingzhou's sleeve and shook it in surprise.

"Cousin Mingzhou, you are too powerful. What the elder sister said is eight cents, but you can do it with seven cents?"

Meng Mingzhou laughed and let go of Su Chenrui's grip on his sleeve, "Okay, this is nothing serious. In fact, it's just a kind of temptation of people's hearts. I'll explain it to you slowly in the future."

Su Chenrui's eyes sparkled with stars, "Really?"

Meng Mingzhou nodded.

"of course."

Su Chenyuan was envious, "Brother Mingzhou, can you tell us too?"

Su Chenrui didn't wait for Meng Mingzhou to answer, and answered first: "Look at you, do you still need to ask? Brother Mingzhou is so good, he will definitely talk about it together!"

Meng Mingzhou shook his head with a smile, this Su Chenrui was afraid that he would not agree, so he put a high hat on him and made him feel embarrassed to refuse, isn't this a kind of human temptation?
