The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 121 Recommend Wife (4)
The adobe house has simple furnishings and not many belongings, but it is cleaned very cleanly. It is obvious at a glance that the hostess is hardworking.

At this time, Gu Dashu, who got the news, came back from the field, followed by the eldest son Gu Zheyi who took the farm tools, and behind him was the naive boy Gu Zheer carrying his five or six-year-old brother on his back.According to Gu Yuanhe, Gu Zhesan of their family is studying in a private school in the town.

Gu Dashu looked very reserved, Qingshu explained his purpose with a smile, he just wanted to ask him to help inform the villagers that the Gu Mansion would collect soybeans, red beans and kidney beans in large quantities, at two cents a catty.The requirement is that the beans should be plump and clean.

Gu Dashu was very surprised, "Two pennies? To tell you the truth, Miss Gu, the best of these beans can only be sold for two catties and three pennies at the cart dealers in the town."

Qing Shu smiled and said, "I know. I collected the beans, of course I have my own intentions. Two Wen a catty is the price in the capital. This is my father's hometown, so naturally I won't treat the people in my father's hometown badly." Two cents per catty, if you sell it happily, I can accept it at ease. If my business can be successful then, it will be my own ability to earn more or less."

Gu Dashu was very excited, "Since Ms. Gu has made a decision, I will inform the villagers." Good thing not to be found.

"Lizheng from the nearby village, do you know him well?" Qing Shu asked again.

"Miss Gu means..."

"If you have a good relationship, you might as well disclose the news. After three days, anyone who is willing to sell beans can get them to my new farm. As long as the beans are good, clean, and cost two cents a catty, anyone will be welcome. I said However, I want to collect a lot. As for today, I only accept the ones from your village, so please inform me quickly. I have to go back to the town before lunch, if there is no hurry, I can only wait three days before sending them to the Zhuangzi.”

Gu Dashu couldn't sit still when he heard that, he yelled at his two sons to inform the villagers, and hurried out by himself.

Mrs. Chen thought of the beans collected by her family, which weighed at least fifty or sixty catties, and immediately called to her niece who lived in the courtyard on the left happily, saying that she wanted to see if her beans were clean, and if they were not clean, she had to pick them up quickly.

While they were busy, Qing Shu lightly squeezed his younger brother's little face, "Wait for my sister to pay for Douzi, Xiao Yang has to keep the account."

"Ah."

"Go to the carriage and get a bag of candy, and share it with the little brothers outside."

Qingyang promised, went out with the ingot, quickly took the candy, grabbed a handful and stuffed it into the small hand of Gu Dashu's youngest son, Gu Zhesi.

Gu Zhesi got a mouthful, and his saliva immediately came down. He held the candy in both hands, and his eyes looked straight.

Seeing him stunned, Qingyang scratched his head, pinched a piece and put it near his mouth, "Open your mouth and eat."

Gu Zhe opened his mouth four times, put the candy in his mouth, and immediately closed his eyes with a smile, "Brother eats too." He was promoted from a stranger to a brother at once, and the speed of a child's recognition of relatives is beyond the comprehension of adults.

Xiaogujia Village is not big at all, there are about [-] households, Gu Dashu and his two sons notified separately, and they came back soon.And behind them, followed by men carrying cloth bags in twos and threes, and curious women who came to see the excitement.

The ancient tree made the villagers stand outside the courtyard. A table was placed in the courtyard, and a long bench was placed behind the table.Qingshu sat in the room and did not come out, while Qingyang sat on the long bench.Yuan Bao put the account book and pen and ink at Qingyang's hand, and polished the ink for Qingyang.

After everything was ready, Gu Dashu asked the villagers to come in one by one, and he took the eldest son to weigh.Weigh one, report one, and Qingyang keeps an account of how much it sold.At this time, Xiaojuan would come out of the house with the corresponding copper coins and put them on the table. Gu Dashu took them and handed them to the villagers, and then called for the next one.

Seeing that it was noon, Gu Dashu called in the last bean seller who was waiting outside, weighed and paid the money, and asked the villagers to go back, and received it here today.

The women who were not at home were in a hurry.Carrying beans is not a problem, the main thing is that the man who is in charge of the house is not there, they have nothing to do in a hurry, and they cannot make decisions without authorization.

For the beans from ten or so households, four and a half bags of soybeans were collected, and more than three bags of red beans were collected. Qing Shu confessed that he would send someone to take them away in the afternoon, and temporarily put them at Gu Dashu's house.

Gu Dashu said that he can come and take away at any time, and he will be optimistic.

Before getting into the carriage, Qingyang stuffed the remaining half pack of candy to Gu Zhesi, the excited Gu Zhesi chased after the carriage and kept calling his brother to come back later, in the end it was Gu Zheer who caught up with him and carried him back Home.

Qingshu returned to the Zhuangzi, and didn't ask anyone to prepare another meal, telling Wu Tongtou to remember to take the beans left at Gu Dashu's house back to the Zhuangzi and put them away in the afternoon.She also confessed one thing, that is, the Zhuangzi will collect beans three days later, and then she got on the carriage and went back to the town.It was agreed before going out that they would have to return home for lunch, and even if they returned late, the kitchen would leave warm meals for them.

As soon as they returned home, Mother Su notified the kitchen, and three dishes and one soup were immediately served on the table.Qingshu and Qingyang washed their hands, sat at the table to eat, and sent Xiaojuan and the others to eat.When eating, Qingshu usually doesn't let people serve her, and she feels uncomfortable eating.

The siblings were full, rinsed their mouths, and were sitting in the living room talking quietly when Gu Qiang came to report the matter.

The trial at the yamen went smoothly. Li Zheng and the village head of Dagujia Village honestly confessed everything they did. Li Da and Li Er admitted to hurting others, but they didn't admit that it was intentional, they only said it was careless .The villagers who attacked Gu Yuanhe that day were all sent for questioning, and the doctor from the Tzu Chi Church who treated Gu Yuanhe was also called for questioning.

Gu Yuanhe said that someone went to his thatched hut to plot against him the night he was injured, but that person stepped on the clip he had put down just in case, which allowed him to escape.

Gu Qiang added from the side that he took people to see it, and besides the bloody clip, there was also a shining knife.The bloody clips and knives were taken by the yamen servants.This person must be found out, they don't want such a malicious person to be around.

The three police officers who received money to work for Li Zheng have also been arrested.After repeated interrogation, they admitted that they had received money from Lizheng, and that they had indeed been to Dagujia Village, but they did not admit that they helped the village head grab the three mu of land in Guyuanhe.In the end, Bai Xianfu tortured them. One of them, Ning Si, was recruited quickly, and said that he was dragged away by force, and he didn't take a copper coin.When he was dragged away by force, he had no prior knowledge of what he was going to do.Later he tried to persuade the other two, but they didn't listen and threatened him instead. He had no choice but to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Gu Yuanhe said from the sidelines that the arrester did persuade the other two people at that time, he heard this, and the persuasion was fruitless, the arrester left first, and did not participate in the final seizure of the land.
