Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 231
If someone doesn't get along with Jun Qi Niang, they will talk about her from time to time, such as Wang Matchmaker.

"Whoever marries into this kind of family, having such a mother-in-law is not so bad!" Then she looked at Ge Jinlian and smiled: "It's better for Qingshan to be convinced. Marrying such a virtuous wife as you is good to her mother-in-law and considerate to Qingshan. , and added a daughter to Qingshan, if you add a young master next time, your family will have both sons and daughters!"

Ge Jinlian showed a shy expression on her face, but said in her mouth: "I also hope that the next child will give Qingshan a boy."

Ge Jinlian treats Mother Qingshan much better now, and the relationship between the two mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is also more harmonious than before.

Of course, Meizi is the happiest among them. Not only is Wang Baoshan caring for her, but he is also willing to work tirelessly. With a smile, with children and grandchildren, and a good wife, who has a good life like her.Now these two boys have run all over the village.

Wanwan's child is younger than Dabao and Xiaobao, but they get along very well with each other. Every time they see him, they yell "Brother!"

Lan Huaniang's son Gen'er is still learning to walk, and Ge Jinlian's daughter Qinglian is babbling.

A few half-sized children gathered together and it was very lively!
Last time Yan Shan dragged Baishou to bring a letter, Baishou took the time to go to the market, after a few days, shopkeeper Yu came to the mine to find Xie Xian.

"I received a letter from the second young master the day before yesterday. He was very concerned about the accident in the mine. He asked me to ask the third young master, whether the family members of the victims have made arrangements?"

"Don't worry, second brother. I have already arranged for the family members of the miners, and specially allowed them to work in the mine. It's a pity, because that person violated the mine regulations, he was resigned by Manager Liu a few days ago." Xie Xian said lightly. the way.

"Well, since the third young master has already made arrangements, I'll go back to the second young master. He said that it is not easy for the miners. Even if we sign the contract, no matter what happens, our Xie family should do our best to appease the miners. The family members of the victims should not let the people in the mine feel cold, we Xie family has a great career, and we don’t care about the dozens of taels of silver."

Xie Xian's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "Of course the Xie family is."

Then Shopkeeper Yu saluted Xie Xian respectfully: "If the third young master has no other orders, I will leave first."

Xie Xian waved his hand casually, indicating that shopkeeper Yu can leave.

Shopkeeper Yu glanced at him, saluted him according to the rules, and then went down the mountain. When he got down the mountain, he met Guanshi Liu and asked about it.

"...I heard that Guanshi Liu has already resigned him?"

Steward Liu was terrified: "Master Yu, I can't blame me for this matter. That man clashed with the third young master at the mine, and the third young master lost his temper. Moreover, Yan Shan is not easy to listen to, so in order not to affect everyone's mood of working in the mine , that’s why we made this move.”

Shopkeeper Yu nodded: "It can't affect everyone's work."

Guanshi Liu felt relieved when he heard this.Immediately, Shopkeeper Yu said again: "But..."

He thought again.

"But he is also a family member of the accident victim, did you send someone to send it to the silver?"

Guanshi Liu was sweating on his forehead. The more he listened to shopkeeper Yu's words, the more wrong he became: "Uh... this Yan Shan is just playing tricks. The third young master said that he was afraid that he would continue to pester him, so he couldn't be blackmailed by that, so he didn't send money over."

Shopkeeper Yu frowned: "How much money did Yan Er's family send?"

"Five taels." Guanshi Liu whispered.

Shopkeeper Yu immediately glared at him: "That's a life, why is it only five taels? You have to know that the Xie family has a big business, and there is one very important thing, that is, loyal servants. If you treat the miners like this, how can they do their best in the future? Shall we thank the family for their service?"

Guanshi Liu said aggrievedly: "Master Yu, you can't blame me for this. The third young master asked Xie San to handle that matter. And now the third young master is in charge of everything."

Shopkeeper Yu got annoyed and interrupted him: "What else happened in the mine recently? What is Yang Baishou doing?"

Guanshi Liu shrank his neck, he knew that Yang Baishou and the second young master had a good relationship, and now shopkeeper Yu came to ask about the matter, fortunately he didn't follow Yang Baishou to trip up Yang Baishou.Then he told shopkeeper Yu everything that happened in the mine recently.

As soon as Shopkeeper Yu left, Guanshi Liu was called by Xie Xian.

Guanshi Liu reported one by one like a report: "...asked about Yan Shan, but how could Yan blame us for being overbearing... Then he asked about the latest situation in the mine..." Naturally omitting his accusation that Xie Xian would If you take over all the rights in the mine.

Time flies like water, and it is time to sell pigs at the end of the year.This year will be very lively and happy.

There is more than one tael of silver a month in the mine, and now I sell pigs. After selling the pigs, I get the silver and immediately go to work in the village, and then I get the silver. When did life become so comfortable!Everyone recalled that it turned out that after Wanwan took Da to work, everyone's life at home began to improve.

Early in the morning, everyone opened the gate of the courtyard, and while eating with bowls, they stood on the side of the road chatting with neighbors. When they saw a row of ox carts approaching slowly outside the village, they immediately entered the house and put down the bowls, excitedly. Run to the entrance of the village to meet him.

They are all regular customers, they have been here a few times, shopkeeper Yu didn't have to come over in person, he sent a servant to talk to Wanwan, and after a few words, the servant led the people to collect the pigs one by one.

When Xie Xian came, the village was full of howling pigs.He got out of the carriage and walked to the ox cart to see three fat pigs locked in a big cage.The person who sold the pigs was waiting outside Wanwan's house, and the pigs that hadn't been sold were waiting at the door of his own house.

Xie Xian found someone to ask.

No one in that man's family worked in the mine, and he had little contact with Xie Xian. Seeing that it was the young master of the Xie family, he hurriedly said, "Selling pigs? The third young master doesn't know?" He also guessed that Xie Xian was the young master of the Xie family. Naturally, people don't bother with trivial matters, so they explained in detail: "Every year we start selling pigs at this time, and then pull them to Zhuangzi, and Baishou's daughter-in-law will take people to make cured goods." Add a few points.

"Oh!" Xie Xianming understood, thought for a while and asked again: "There are quite a few people raising pigs in Yangjia Village, how many pigs will they buy this time?"

The man laughed and said, "There are a lot of pigs in our village, but how many pigs are enough? I heard from the little brother just now that we may need a hundred pigs this year! And the number of people working this year has increased. Quite a few."

Xie Xian squinted his eyes, and there was a gleam of light from the slits of his eyes: "So many? Then I don't know how long it will take to make cured goods. Everyone is working in the mine now, and people have to take care of them at home. I have to go to Zhuangzi to help again, I'm afraid I'm too busy!"

The man looked at him strangely, and thought, this man is the young master of the Xie family, and he has been in the mine for so long, I believe that even if he doesn't know, he should find out clearly, why he doesn't even know about this, it just so happens that someone in his family wants Going to work with Wanwan, all the people who go there have signed a contract, saying that they can't spread the news on Zhuangzi, and besides, everyone is smart, not stupid, if they spread the story on Zhuangzi Going out, I was inquired clearly by others. Later, the Xie family found someone else to sign a contract to work, so they would have no work. Follow Wanwan to Zhuangzi to work. It is easy and fast to find money. When will such a good thing happen? .Therefore, everyone is more sensitive to outsiders inquiring about Zhuangzi's affairs.

Thinking of this, the joy on the man's face faded a lot, and he smiled and said: "We don't know about this, every time it is the time set by Baishoujia, she told us to go, let's go, she said okay, then This job is done. We are all doing menial work and don't know any skills, so we don't need to use our brains, just follow the instructions!"

Xie Xian had a flash of inspiration again. After working for such a long time, he must be able to see or know something. However, this person must be a person who only works with ears but no brains. The color of contempt.Since he didn't have the information he wanted, he had no intention of responding and left.

The man saw it clearly, and with a flick of his mouth, another person next to him came up and asked him quietly: "What's the matter?"

The man snorted coldly: "It's really a bastard, I don't know anything. I'm asking for news inside and outside the words."

"Ah?" The other was surprised: "How is it possible, he is the young master of the Xie family."

"Master? There are many young masters from rich families. He is just a bastard. I think he doesn't know anything about this village." .”

The other person was a little hesitant: "It's also the young master of the Xie family, is it necessary?"

"Damn!" The man spat in Xie Xian's direction: "Don't forget that the Baishou family said that our master is the second young master, and the second young master is the son of the eldest son!"

"Oh!" The man was stunned!Quietly passed a word to the person beside him, who was startled for a while, then whispered to the person on the other side.

The village roads were all blocked by ox carts, Xie Xian's servant had to tie his horse to the entrance of the village, and he walked next to the ox carts to watch one by one.

Those who loaded the fat pigs drove the ox cart slowly towards the village.After buying the pigs from Yangjia Village this time, I had to go to other villages, so I hired ten ox carts at a time. There are a few fewer households raising pigs in the village this year than in previous years. , simply do not raise.

After the pigs of all the people in the village were transported away, the other leader took the people to Wangjia Village, while shopkeeper Yu's personal servant stayed behind to pay for the pigs.

The number of pigs in each family, how much they weigh, and how much the calculated amount should be calculated by the servants are recorded in a ledger in advance, and it can be seen that they have been with shopkeeper Yu all year round.A bench was set up in the yard of Wanwan’s house, and everyone lined up to go in one by one, reporting their names, how many pigs, how much they paid, and giving money after they were correct.Besides, in a village, everyone knows each other and is not afraid of someone pretending to be the leader.

In this way, the pigs are transported away in a unified way, and the money is distributed in a unified way, which will save trouble.Anyone who has any questions can ask at this time.

Wanwan didn't raise pigs this year, so she has been sitting in the yard with her baby in her arms and watching.

　Ever since I had a baby at home, I have been like a thief. When there is a big movement, the child wakes up!
