reborn idle wife

Chapter 14
After Zuo Zhan had finished asking him all the questions he wanted to ask, Dong Li had time to ask him one or two small questions, and then he realized that they had really found something in that hibiscus garden.

When it came to those things, Zuo Zhan's face turned red suspiciously, and he unnaturally revealed them: "It's all hard to say, you're a girl, so don't inquire about it."

Is there any secret that can't be told?Dongli's curiosity was immediately overwhelmed, and he wanted to get some inside information by insinuating, but Zuo Zhanhong had a pair of beautiful ears, and refused to tell her anything, but made her appreciate the shyness of a handsome man. coquettish.

Shui Mo ran over with a lot of wheat spikes in his pocket and was chasing after a farmer in his fifties. Although Shui Mo was a girl, she ran so fast that the old man behind couldn't catch up with her, he was so tired Panting.

"What's going on here?" Zuo Zhan frowned, and stepped forward to help the old man who almost fell down: "Old man, what happened?"

As a result, the old man grabbed his clothes and said, "You are with her, aren't you? Pay me for my wheat!" For a moment, he was so excited that he didn't realize that Zuo Zhan was wearing an official robe.

Dongli looked helplessly at Shui Mo, who was panting aside, what's the point of getting some ears of wheat in his own field, you just need to explain clearly to others, why are you running?Look how tired the old man is!

Shui Mo sticks out her tongue in embarrassment, she is used to it, when she was a child, she used to go to the fields to steal other people's wheat, wouldn't it be running wild if she was found out?He couldn't turn the corner for a while, and suddenly heard the sound of scolding, subconsciously put on his skirt and ran away.

Zuo Zhan looked at the old man with cracked hands, but couldn't help but feel a sore nose: "Don't worry, old man, we will definitely pay for your wheat."

Dong Li felt embarrassed, and took a few steps over: "This old man is also a tenant of Zhuangzi, right? Ink, come here and apologize to the old man, and explain the matter clearly. It's a good thing for you, a dead girl!"

Now the old man can clearly see that all these people in front of him are wearing luxurious clothes, and the gold and silver on the heads of the girls are even more eye-catching, no matter how dull they are, they can understand that there is something wrong People from rich families couldn't help feeling a little worried. It's easier for these rich people to deal with a poor man than to trample an ant to death, so they let go of their hands in panic: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, just Seeing wheat being trampled on by others makes me angry for a while.”

"Old man, this has nothing to do with you." Dongli respects these old people very much. When he sees them, he can't help but think of his parents in his previous life. Small life, for the children to go to school to grow up, the body is thin and thin, and the dark face is full of traces left by the wind and frost.

At this moment, Shui Mo has already blessed a blessing very respectfully: "Old man, it was my fault, and I will make it up to you. This land is rented and planted by the tenants of the Mo family. We are members of the Mo family, and we want to pick some Ermai Suier is burning and eating, so if I want to be scolded by you, I will run away in a panic!"

"So it's the boss?" The old man was even more surprised, and hurriedly wanted to kneel and kowtow, but Zuo Zhan firmly held him back: "What are you doing? Get up quickly! This was our fault in the first place."

us?Dongli froze for a moment, then glanced at Zuo Zhan, when did she become a family with this guy?
Danzhu was so angry that he pointed at Shui Mo's nose and taught him: "You say you are stubborn, there is so much wheat here, why do you have to go to another place to pick it? You have a grudge against the old man?"

Shui Mo stared at his toes in embarrassment, moving his little feet back and forth on the ground: "That's not it, just count the wheat growing well there! Of course I picked it from there."

The old man actually laughed when he heard this, and he looked quite proud: "It's no wonder that this girl, if you talk about this kind of land, no one from ten miles and eight villages can compare to me! Thanks to the benevolence and righteousness of the owner, I took you home." The rent is low, I have taken care of the crops, and I have enough food for a year."

Dongli smiled slightly. Bai was a precious thing to them. The ink and wash went to other people's fields to pick such a large pile. If you buy it well, you can’t let you bear the loss in vain.”

Danzhu immediately took out the money and handed it to the old man, who quickly shook his head and backed away: "That's no good, the rent charged by the host is lower than other people's. We are already envied by many people. Every year, there are people who want to find money. Now that the relationship is over, these wheat can be treated as a little bit of my old man's heart."

No matter what several people said, the old man refused to accept the money.

In the end, Dongli looked at the full-grained ears of wheat in Shui Mo, and suddenly had a thought: "Is the old man good at farming? This wheat grows well! It's much better than other people's homes."

The old man's face immediately lit up: "Serving the land is like serving children. You have to be careful. I didn't say that many people have been farming all their lives but actually don't know how to farm at all."

Dongli picked up a wheat ear and looked at it, and peeled out a few chubby grains: "It's really good, old man, can I discuss something with you?"

The old man was immediately flattered: "If you have something to say, just give it!"

Zuo Zhan looked at her curiously. What is there to discuss between a young lady and an old farmer?
"It's like this. My brother intends to study farming, but he doesn't know anything about it. The old man is very experienced. If you want, can you help him? If you want, Mo's press According to the rules of the family, I will give you a monthly payment." Dong Li was very happy to find such an old-fashioned way, which is very rare.

"Return the money?" The old man was unwilling, nodding repeatedly: "Of course I am willing. When will it start? In a few days, we will start harvesting the wheat. Let's start after harvesting the wheat?"

Study farming?Zuo Zhan raised his eyebrows with interest, is this true?Mo Youran looks like a son of a son, can he really jump down and soak in the farmland?
"Don't be in such a hurry." Dongli smiled and looked in a good mood: "When the wheat is harvested and the land is leveled, he will naturally come to you. As for these ears of wheat," Dongli looked at the ink painting The harvested wheat ears smiled wryly and shook her head: "Well, I'm in charge of this year's rent, and I'll give your family a [-]% reduction." With a small calculation in mind, [-]% of the rent will be exchanged for an experienced land worker , she is not bad!

"[-]%?" The old man was really surprised. "Mo's rent is [-]%, which is already very low. If we reduce it by [-]%, wouldn't that be [-]%? Most of the food is our own?"

Zuo Zhan's eyes softened, what Dong Li said might be just an excuse, but the rent reduction really lightened the burden for the old man, but when his eyes touched Dong Li's face, he couldn't help being taken aback.

Why does she look bad, and she looks very unhappy.

The rent of the Mo family is obviously [-]%, and [-]% in the Jiangnan area is not bad, but that is where the rich are, and [-]% of the rent is not too much, but it is different here. After [-]% of the rent is collected, the tenants We can only have half of the food and half of the bran vegetables, and we will be full when we are hungry.

Mrs. Xu clearly said that the local rent has always been [-]%, and the income reported by Zheng Guanshi is also [-]% every year, but this old man said it was [-]%. Lied to her, where did the extra [-]% rent go?
"Miss, are you okay?" Danzhu looked at her face worriedly, "Did you get sunburned after being out for a long time? Let's go back quickly. Although it's not particularly sunny, the weather is very hot."

Mo Youran finally ran back, the pigeon in his hand was already dying: "Look, I picked up a pigeon, but it seems to be dying."

(The pigeon was crying in his heart, if I hadn't been shot down by you, I wouldn't be dying soon.)
Seeing the white and lovely appearance of the pigeon, Dongli couldn't help but took it and stroked the smooth feathers: "Why is it like this? Is there any way to revive it?"

"Sister, it's not dead yet." Mo Youran reminded, was he careless? When he came back to his senses, he found that the beautiful pigeon was exhaling more air than inhaling, and it was about to die.

"It will be fine after a while." The old farmer is quite experienced. After a few glances, he made a conclusion, and then looked at Mo Youran with piercing eyes: "This is the young master? Hello, young master, when do you plan to start?" Study farming?"

farming?Mo Youran was stunned, when did he say he was going to farm?
Dongli choked. The old man was still impatient. Seeing his brother's inexplicable expression, Dongli, holding the pigeon, could only shake his head helplessly: "Don't you want to study farming? This old man farms like this." Said Thumbs up, in exchange for a proud smile on the old man's face: "Just to add some knowledge to you, I am very optimistic about this old man!"

Good at farming?Mo Youran immediately became interested: "That's good, how about we harvest the wheat in a few days?"

The old man was naturally eager to do so. He smiled and agreed again and again. This is great. He is still getting paid at a very old age. The life of the family will be much easier in the future. Renzi, this year's family has a bumper harvest, so I can take a wife for my youngest son.

The old man squinted his eyes and thought beautifully, and Dongli pulled Mo Youran over there, and told him about the abnormality of Renzi in a low voice, Mo Youran's expression suddenly turned ugly.
