Orion's pretty daughter-in-law

Chapter 187 The Missed Gossip
Lizheng's aunt was shocked, and said with joy on her face: "No! The kang is really a good thing! Once the fire is lit in the morning and evening, the whole room will be warmed up, and there will be no cold time. Most of the people in our village It can be regarded as a warm winter for people!"

Originally thanks to the Liangpi workshop and the ointment workshop, as well as the money from selling medicines, many villagers have made a lot of money this year. Basically, every family made thick and warm winter clothes for their families during the New Year, but the result is that the autumn harvest Not long after that, the kang was built. When winter came, the fire was turned on. Except for occasional visits, there was no need to wear such thick clothes in the house, and I was sweating!

"In other villages, there are some households who have built fire kangs, but the cost of building them is not too small. Those villages are not as rich as our Shangxi village. Many of them are several households pooling the money together. Build it up, and celebrate the New Year together."

When she said this, Aunt Lizheng obviously held her head high, as if she was very proud of their Shangxi Village.

Aunt Hong, Second Aunt Liu, and Zhou Xi'er were also concerned about each other, and their expressions were quite complacent. At the same time, they were also very grateful to Luo Jinxiu and the others who had researched the kang.

Luo Jinxiu didn't want to hear them thank you all the time, so she interrupted them and asked, "By the way, has anything new happened in the village these few months since we left?"

Butler Ji said before that nothing happened at home, doesn't it mean that Shangxi Village has passed without any gossip for several months?
Sure enough, as soon as this incident was brought up, the women who were particularly interested in these things became excited, and the chatterbox immediately opened up, and it was almost impossible to stop.

"Don't even mention it, there have been a lot of things that have happened in the past few months!" Several women began to chatter.

Aunt Lizheng said: "Didn't you just harvest the medicinal materials before you left? The people in the village have made a lot of money. During the spring sowing this year, those who planted the medicinal materials last year saw the actual benefits. This year they are more active than last year. Almost More than half of the land in my house has been planted with medicinal materials."

Aunt Liu said: "Growing medicinal materials is more profitable than growing grain. There are waterwheels in the village. If there is an unlucky word, even if there is a drought, it will always save part of the harvest. This will save the harvest. Those that come down, even if they lose a lot, can still save enough for the villagers to spend and pay taxes, no one is stupid, of course they all rush to plant."

Zhou Xi'er curled her lips, "Those who used to speak ill of your family also tried their best to ask our family to help intercede. Now that they really made money, they regretted it. What did they do long ago? Anyway, they found people from our family They were all driven away by me, so I didn't speak for them."

Aunt Lizheng and Second Aunt Liu were not as straightforward as Zhou Xier, but they also tactfully refused those who came to them, so as not to help others and distance themselves from the compound.

Aunt Hong said: "The people who want to grow medicinal materials are not only the few villagers in the village who you have said will not cooperate, but also the relatives and friends of those who planted medicinal materials last year. There are a lot more, one is because every household has a hot kang head, even if you stay for a while longer, it will be warmer, and second, the main reason is to establish a relationship, and then find a way to grow medicinal materials, and then let you charge a high price .”

Luo Jinxiu smiled indifferently: "I took the medicinal materials from the villagers just to help them a little bit if conditions permit, so that everyone can become rich together, but I don't have that much energy to help the people in other villages together. "

Aunt Hong slapped her thigh, "That's not to say! Are you really being taken advantage of? The price you charge for people in our village is high enough, and you can't take advantage of any advantage. Maybe you have to pay extra We are very grateful for some money. If we make more progress, wouldn’t we be a bit greedy? Fortunately, not all people in the village can’t figure it out. Make a lot of noise and make a fuss."

But there are also a few families who are really moved and want to help their relatives and friends, but because Yun Jinghao and the others haven't come back, they can only hold back temporarily.

Afterwards, Lizheng and Aunt Lizheng didn't want the villagers to die after getting the news, so they went to talk to those families before they came back.

At the beginning, those families were quite reluctant, until Aunt Lizheng directly said, "If you get angry with them, you can't continue to grow medicinal materials, don't regret it", those families were really honest.

In the final analysis, people, once it comes to their own vital interests, they have to put it aside whether they help relatives or friends or not.

This was thanks to the fact that the compound had given a lot of shock to the villagers. After the warning, most of them did not dare to make mistakes easily. The Liangpi workshop was the more troublesome one.

When this matter was mentioned, Aunt Lizheng's expression gave her a headache.

The cold noodle workshop is run by the villagers. It is similar to a rural cooperative industry. The small shareholders in it are all from the village. People outside the village who can't take advantage of the medicinal materials will inevitably pay attention to the cold noodle workshop.

There are not many villagers in the compound who can talk, but can't the workshops with their own members be the masters?

As a result, people who were instigated by relatives from other villages came to tell Lizheng that they would put people in the workshop, and there was almost an endless stream of people. What's more, there were people who wanted to make up for a share, and wanted to sit and wait to get money in the future. people.

Even though the matter has passed for a while, Aunt Lizheng still looks anxious, "Why don't you be greedy for them! You still want to pay back the shares! A total of [-] shares have been distributed long ago, and now you want to make up for it. Get it out?"

Second Aunt Liu said: "If someone doesn't want their share, it's okay to give it up, but who is so stupid, knowing that as long as the cold noodle workshop can continue, it is possible to spend the rest of your life with money. , and let it go out, and, how much is it a good deal? It’s impossible to calculate according to the before the workshop opened.”

At the beginning, except for the money from the Lizheng family, which accounted for the largest share, the money from other families was not too much in general. The money received in the past few months has already exceeded what they paid. Calculated according to the original ratio, that is to pay for the dead!

But if you calculate the amount of money that may be obtained in the next few decades to let people from other villages buy shares, no one will spend so much money. 30 taels of silver, is it really not good to do some business by yourself with that money, and still need it to compete for the share of the workshop?

Luo Jinxiu listened to them helplessly or angrily talking about how hateful those people from other villages were, and she knew in her heart that there would be a lot of moths in the workshop, so she just listened and didn't comment much.

Among them, there are not many popular ones, but those who come to the village to yell and swear, and even play and roll around in front of the workshop. People in the village and people from other villages almost got into fights because of this, and the number of times they quarreled is innumerable.

The families that brought these rascals back were also complained by other owners, making them uncomfortable inside and out, and they were even warned not to deal with them, so they took back their money. Passing it on to other people in the village made them wake up.

It's a pity that they want to invite people away, but it's easier to invite gods than to send them away, and they all say it's cheating. Before they achieve their goals, their relatives chase them away, and they don't leave. They come to the village to report and make trouble.

In this way, those few families and my distant relatives had to quarrel and quarrel, which made the village dirty.

Later, because someone had blood on their hands after the fight, Li Zheng couldn't bear it anymore, and directly raised his voice and said that if they continued to fight, they would be sent to the police directly, which made those bullying guys admit their cowardice.

Afterwards, even if I came over unwillingly and wandered around a few times, I didn't dare to make too much noise.

Just talking about these things about the Liangpi workshop, a few people talked for more than half an hour, and their mouths were dry. On the way, Luo Jinxiu was very considerate and poured several cups of tea for them to moisten their throats.

After they finished speaking, they rested for a while, and then casually talked about some small things that happened to other people's families. Luo Jinxiu listened to it for a long time, but none of them had any intention of mentioning the Yun family, so she simply asked, "Where is the Yun family?" What? Has nothing happened in the past few months?"

impossible.

Among other things, Yun Chengyao went to take the exam before they left, and the results should have come down not long after they left.

With the promise of the Duke's Mansion, she knew what the result would be.

Sure enough, Aunt Lizheng and the others changed their expressions slightly, exchanging glances with each other, looking quite embarrassed.

Luo Jinxiu turned her head and thought for a while, and soon realized that they probably didn't bring it up on purpose because they knew that she and Jing Hao had a bad relationship with the Yun family, for fear that it would affect her joy when she just returned home.

She was also happy that someone was so worried about the mood of their husband and wife, but there was really no need to hide this matter, even if they didn't mention it now, after they rested for a few days and went out for a walk, they would know about it from other people Condition.

"What's the result of Cheng Yao's exam? Did you pass?"

Aunt Lizheng hesitated for a moment, but still gritted her teeth and said, "I won! Not long after you left, someone from the county came to announce the good news. Cheng Yao is now the master of Juren." The words have been spoken, so there is no need to hide them, just He also brought up other matters related to the Yun family.

"As soon as the news is confirmed, the members of the Yun family are so happy that they can't find the north." Zhou Xi'er snorted, "Within two days, they held a banquet in the village. They still owed a lot of foreign debts, so they held a banquet." It really doesn’t look shabby at all.”

It is said that there is a master Juren in the village, and everyone in the village will be happy with it. In fact, most of the villagers are indeed very happy, but there are still a few people who are against the Yun family who want to go to heaven as long as they have a little ability. The angry character is not very pleasing to the eye.
