The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 169 Another Plan
At the family's dinner table, Hongji ate in silence. The excitement in the morning and the tension in various states finally came to an end.

He feels that a farmer has never had such glory. This is the result of the joint efforts of the family. Their family's rise to fame is all due to the efforts of the family.

As a peasant woman, Mrs. Li was very nervous, entertaining so many noble ladies. She used to be a servant of other people's family, and she was an inferior peasant woman in front of these noble ladies.

Being able to entertain guests as the host today is also a kind of experience for a woman to socialize. She never thought that she would be so highly regarded by someone from a wealthy family, and she was very happy.

"Hey... Hongji, next time there are so many guests entertaining, they will have to charge for the things they bring back."

Mrs. Lai always remembered that he entertained so many guests today, but he didn't receive a penny, not even a gift.

"Mother... today is a bit special. If it's not our relatives, there shouldn't be so many guests, right?"

Acer is a little uncertain about what he said. The so-called famous people visit many times, and some people even come here for the sake of being famous for its delicious food.

"But our relatives are not small. We bought land and asked people to plant it. We spent a lot of money, so we can't make a loss-making business." Hongji's father also said.

"Father, our vegetables are grown so well, and the fruits are delicious and plentiful, so we shouldn't lose money..."

In fact, Acer has not yet come up with a better solution. People from the countryside, especially those from rich and noble families, are not worth much if they take away anything.

"Daddy, if there are such tour groups in the future, we can charge a little entrance fee. How much others bring back is their ability. But if they are pulled by horse-drawn carriages like today, they can also be named. Sell ​​them at cheap wholesale prices."

Ye Shiqi heard such an idea in her little head when she heard what the family members were talking about.

"Yes, that's a good idea." Acer was the first to agree, and then the whole family nodded.

"Daddy, our farm here can buy more land to dig fish ponds, and then entertain those who come to play. They can take the fish away when they fish, but they have to pay an entrance fee."

Ye Shiqi thought of the fact that today's tour group came here. Their village is famous, and if their family doesn't buy land, someone will buy land near their manor.

"Buy the land..." Mrs. Lai was the first to object, why buy land if you have money and don't keep it?

"Don't interrupt, say you have long hair but short knowledge, really, we are farmers, why don't we buy land if we have money?" Hongji's father glared at the old wife.

"Father is right. We have tried to grow rice and vegetables, and we have succeeded. Then we can buy more land around our manor, so that it will be easier to manage."

Acer thought that he had bought a lot of things in the past two years, such as building a big house, buying the land and mountains of the manor, but after more than a year of hard work, he has already paid back his capital and still has a little savings.

He felt that it would be better to keep the money with him than to buy more land like those landlords. If their family grows high-yielding grain, it is inevitable to buy more land.

Mrs. Li has been silently supporting her.

The other girls in the family have no other ideas. Anyway, the family now hires people to work, so they don't need to work as hard as before.

"Brother, don't just focus on buying land, I'm going to get married, don't forget to give me more dowry."

No matter how Ye Shuzhen's natal family became rich, the most important thing is her dowry. Now she is not the same as before, and she knows that dowry is very important to her.

"Hongji, have you prepared your sister's dowry?" Mrs. Lai was too shrewd. She had saved a lot of money in the past two years, but she still let her son pay the dowry for her daughter to marry.

"Mother, Third Sister's dowry has already been ordered.

Hongji didn't dislike the third sister very much. This is the youngest sister who got married and soon became her own daughter.

Now it's not the same as before. Of course, he has the ability to make a dowry for his younger sister.

"Brother, I also want to customize gold and silver jewelry for my dowry. I want to get married beautifully."

Ye Shuzhen made another request.

"It depends on how much gift money the man's family gives? If they give less, even if we pay back, it's just for you. Don't be so stupid, give it to the man's family."

Hongji also said that he knew that his wife would not offend the family, and he could only be the one who said ugly things.

"Understood, brother." Ye Shuzhen grew up for more than a year, and seemed to be a little more sensible, and knew how to listen to the persuasion of her family.

Ye Shuzhen used to look down on this elder brother, and for more than a year, she didn't dare to have such an idea. The elder brother has become the leader of their family's rice team.

Li Shi has always played the role of a gentle and kind daughter-in-law. When everyone chats, she will not give any ideas. She always feeds her youngest son gently, and she is also full.

Hongji drank a cup of tea after he had a full meal, and with an idea in mind, he went into the room and unlocked it, took the silver ticket and was about to find Lizheng.

A man came in with a horse in their house.

Hongji saw clearly that this person was his future third brother-in-law.

Another guest came in suddenly at home, and the person who entered the room to enjoy the shade after lunch was attracted by this guest.

The maid who entered the room came out to pour tea for the guests.

Ye Shuzhen saw people outside the yard from the window of her room, and followed them out.

The Ye family's house was built in the form of a courtyard, with a relatively large courtyard in the middle, a well was dug, and flower and fruit trees were planted in the courtyard.

When people live in the courtyard, people in all rooms will see guests entering the courtyard at the door or window.

Acer introduces the guests into the living room. With this house, it is no longer like the small house before, where there is not even a place to entertain guests.

Ye Shuzhen had already followed into the living room, came to the living room and sat beside her fiancé.

The man who came in retreated after the servant girl served the tea. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. In Hongji's waiting eyes, Ye Shuzhen sat on the side waiting, talking about the purpose of his visit.

"Brother, younger brother, I came here by order. These are the people from the two visiting groups today. They donated money to you, brother. It can be said that it is the money for buying melons and fruits."

The man puts a bag of silver on the table.

"Oh, so they didn't get what they got for free." Shi Lai and Dad Hongji also walked into the living room and sat down.

"Brother, father-in-law and mother-in-law, the tour group came here this time, and they have gained a lot. Congratulations! The manor of the elder brother is famous far and wide."

The man is not a false congratulation, as relatives from outside, and the future natal family, if they get rich, they will bring more benefits to their family.

The host family will also give their father and son more trust, and it will be easier to make money by doing things.

"Hehe, brother, I didn't think they would give me the money, so I will take it if they give it to me?" Hongji saw his mother's hand that wanted money, and quickly put away the money.
