Chapter 861: It's weird again
Gu Wenxuan looked at his wife in confusion, and used his right hand to touch her bulging belly. "Is it your idea, or my daughter's?"

It's happening again.

Zhou Banxia laughed out loud.

Seeing her smile, Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but smile too, "I thought my daughter kicked you after hearing that. If you were asked to choose, who is more important, your father or your daughter?"

"You are the most important."

This daughter-in-law was being clever again. Gu Wenxuan glanced at her with amusement, "This is my first plan. Where is the bricklayer?"

"Will we all move to Hexi before dark?"

"You are really smart now." Gu Wenxuan nodded without denying, "I checked, this family was indeed squeezed out by the brick-making village outside the north of the city.

This family is indeed honest. It has been almost ten years since they sold themselves to the Huang family. His eldest daughter has grown up and is said to be really good-looking, but they just haven't gotten their revenge.

There is not much deviation from the information found before. The family went to Huangfu Manor voluntarily. They have a good reputation in the manor. Everyone says that his family is honest and hardworking.

But to be honest, it wouldn't be the case. When Zhiming mentioned us in the past, that family immediately knelt down and begged Zhiming to buy them.

The head of the family did not hide anything and told Zhiming directly where he was originally from and how he was framed and driven out. He also reiterated that he could make bricks.

It turns out that he is quite smart. He knows that his skill of making bricks is enough of an advantage among the servants for us to choose his family.

I let Zhiming scare him a bit first so that he wouldn't think he was something great just because he could make bricks. It wasn't until today when Zhiming went to pick people that I brought him out.

Now even his eldest daughter and son-in-law have been brought out, and the head of Hexi Village has been asked to talk to them properly. When your father comes home, there will be no problem with his family.

As for the remaining five people, apart from being able to confirm that they are not sent in as spies, it remains to be seen whether they can be used. Fortunately, there is no rush to use them now.

Spring ploughing is coming soon. I plan to let those five families farm and raise pigs in Hexi first. If they behave themselves, I will use them. Otherwise, a single rat dropping can easily spoil the whole barrel."

can.

At worst, you can find a decent matchmaker when you sell it, or even sell it to a brothel or something like that. It's a way to accumulate virtue and also a way to prevent yourself from being blamed.

People are unpredictable, and who knows where they will rise and fall. Zhou Banxia thought for a while and said, "If we want to observe, it's best not to be the village head alone.

It won’t take too long, Hexi is too close to the village, and it takes from spring ploughing and sowing to wheat harvest and autumn harvest. How about deciding whether to start using it before winter?”

"Exactly what I want!"

Do you know what I am worried about?
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "It's impossible for someone to watch them all the time. Since they are our servants, we have to avoid getting involved with the villagers."

Do I have any secrets?

"If there really is someone dishonest and shameless enough to seduce someone in the village, it won't be as simple as selling him out, so I asked the guards to keep a close eye on us.

Don't worry, I know all about these things, and I have already given the order. Well, let's not talk about this anymore, I will continue to talk about the second plan, listen carefully."

Do you want to put your hands on your legs and sit up straight? Zhou Banxia held back her laughter and stretched out her hand, pointing at the paper that Gu Wenxuan had not yet taken out of the wooden box.

"As for the second plan, it all started with your father. Didn't we pick some of the wild fruits we collected for charity last year to make fruit wine? Didn't your father tell us about it in the first month of the lunar year?"

"It tastes good!" "That's right!"

"You win." Zhou Banxia laughed and shook her head. She really could relate everything to her father. "It's as if your father hates it so much.

Taozhuang is the one you want to buy to make fruit wine, and it also has two manors with orchards. Do you want to combine the fruit wine with the sweet potato wine made by your grandmother's family?"

"That's about right. If I'm not wrong, the court will order the control of winemaking from grain, and the price of wine will go up. Then, fruit wine will become popular.

We have a geographical advantage here. There are many mountains, right? There are many wild fruits. Can we make fruit wine to benefit the people? This is a great act of kindness, my wife."

"Haha!" I almost believed you. Zhou Banxia decisively stretched out his right palm and said, "Hurry up and bring the plan over. Let me see what else you have in mind."

"What can I do? Didn't you say that we should do more good deeds in the future? I'm ready to throw away the fruit wine if I can't sell it."

"Stop talking nonsense. The more you say that, the more anxious I get. We have already agreed that the purchase of land and mountains here ends here."

“Hahaha…” Gu Wenxuan laughed. You’re scared, right? I let you restless with your big belly, and you even secretly prepared some chopped sugar for me!

"You're so funny!" Zhou Banxia punched him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "You're so naughty, I knew you were teasing me, and you have a second plan?
How can I not understand you? Nowadays, no plan can be more important than the birth of a child. You always want to wait until I give birth to a child before you make any big move. "

This is the so-called first plan. I'm afraid it was just because my father thought that the entire brick kiln could not do without me to supervise it, so that he would still be thinking about this matter when I was about to give birth.

fool.

When the time comes for a difficult birth, what else in this world can compare to the regret of leaving you alone? This can be the belief that supports me.

"Wait a little longer. Even if you have a second plan, wait until I give birth to the child. I will cooperate with you then. But there is one thing we need to agree on.

Everything you earn is mine, and mine is still mine. This is a matter of principle, and I cannot go back on my word. You said that every penny you earn belongs to me, Zhou Banxia."

This silly wife still smelled something. She knew that no matter how much preparation he made, he was still uneasy. Gu Wenxuan felt very sad for a moment, "Okay, every penny is yours, and no one can take it away. You just wait, what does the dowry mean? Your man will save up double the dowry--"

"So that you can be my dowry and then marry me off? Hahaha, are you stupid? If you save twice as much, you'll become Gu Wansan. How can we still live in peace?
How good it is now. In Qingyang County, we are considered a middle-class family among the rich families. Outside Qingyang County, wow, we are still a middle-class family among the rich families!

We are wealthy, but there are families several rows ahead of us with more money than us; if you dare to bully us because we are poor, haha, we can go to the top of the city and throw silver at them for fun."

Gu Wenxuan laughed at this treasure, "You are just bragging. You don't even dare to throw copper coins on the top of the city wall, let alone play with silver. You should take a rest."

"Hey, who are you looking down on? Let's go into the city. I'll throw some silver to show you if I dare!"

"It just happened to be dark."

"Wait, someone seems to be coming——"

"Stop changing the subject—"

"Your sister-in-law is here!"

"impossible!"

"We agreed that I am right even if I am wrong?"
