The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 292 Conspiracy Theory

Ye Zhiwei was taken aback when he heard his wife's words. His eldest son is the heir to the family business and must marry a well-educated, gentle and sensible woman.

In his mind, the candidate for the eldest son to marry has not yet been decided, but the eldest son is already sixteen or seventeen years old, and it is time to get engaged.

If the eldest son would have to wait several years to get engaged to Hongji's eldest daughter, his requirements would be even higher.

So the second son mentioned by the wife, the second son is just 15 years old, and it is okay to wait for four or five years. The second son does not need to inherit the family business, and the conditions for choosing are lower.

But everyone's surname is Ye, and they are from the same village. Although they can get married in this way, they have always disliked the Hongji family that has just risen.

At this moment, the scene of a little girl and several younger sisters going to work in the field two years ago appeared in my mind. She had yellow hair and was thin and dark.

As I saw at the gate just now, the five sisters were wearing the same festive attire, the fabric of the brocade clothes, not even everyone in their family could afford to wear them.

It's not that I don't want to give up money, but it's because the family has grown up and changes too many clothes throughout the year. For example, the two daughters in the family are so big, and one set of clothes for one person takes up the clothes of two people.

Old clothes and some living expenses are also a big headache for him. The output of the field in the past two years is not as good as others, and he is envious of Hongji's farm.

I also heard that the farm near his farm was bought by him again. How much money did this man make?Invest in three farms within two years, and there will be dividends from the wood factory.

With such a high income, even his family, which has been rich for generations, is envious.

The idea of ​​his wife moved him, and he was right. The fat water does not flow to other people's land. If the second son marries one of Hongji's daughters, then he only has one son. He can definitely share some of the family property with him. The dowry is quite a lot, right? !
Hearing his wife's eyes roll, Ye Zhiwei nodded in agreement with his wife's words, and then told them not to spread the news and stop making trouble.

"Husband, don't worry, after a few days, I will ask someone to propose marriage."

The woman's firm eyes have married the man into the family, and she will not be allowed to rub it when the time comes.

"Mother, which one did you mention about marriage proposal with Dad? Is it Ye Luoqi? Hmph, when the second elder brother marries her, she will still be majestic in front of me. Let that poor boy cry!"

"Eldest sister is right, haha, when the time comes, let's see how our sister-in-law punishes her, that poor boy can only dream of it!"

The two daughters finally stopped crying and laughed. Tears and snot were mixed on their big faces, and they turned the rouge and gouache they had put on today into big painted faces.

As a mother, I also laughed, and felt that this idea was very relieved!

The three mother and daughter went out with a smile, and they discussed how to propose marriage.

And go back to put on makeup again. As a mother, seeing her daughter put on makeup, she is afraid that her husband will get bored, so she won't stay here any longer.

Ye Luoqi: "???"

Ye Zhiwei didn't pay attention to the ugly faces of the two daughters at all.

He also laughed, and what he was laughing at was not because the second son took the other party and bullied the other party, but because he thought that the second son could marry this man, and he might also belong to a Wangfu.

As a rich man, he also wants his family business to last forever, and that every generation is getting better.

Ye Zhiwei was in a better mood, and instead of going to drink with his brother, he went to his concubine's room. He felt that he should comfort himself.

……

Ye Jiaxing was taken home by his parents, and they beat him up, and he screamed from the beating.

"Father, stop beating, I didn't do it, it's the fault of those ugly monsters!"

Father Ye became even more angry, he didn't care that it was the New Year with the stick in his hand, let alone that it would rot on his son's new clothes.

The son was in trouble this time, and the father couldn't help him, and it also hurt some villagers.

If their family does not have rented land, they can grow dry land, but the output is not much, and they will have to tighten their belts in the future, but they have more time to go out to work.

But can part-time jobs last forever?

As a farmer without land to cultivate, this is the hardest thing. Who made their family poor!

Originally, he was poor and short-sighted, but his son wanted to make trouble.

Ye Jiaxing was beaten up by his father, and he didn't admit defeat. He didn't think he was wrong. As a man, there was nothing wrong with protecting his beloved woman.

Some are those ugly monsters, I was wrong!

Ye Jiaxing's ass was bleeding from the spanking, the pain made him jump and jump, and his legs were also smeared with blood, but he still refused to admit defeat, and didn't think he was wrong.

The new clothes he was wearing were torn, his father was tired from the beating, and the husband and wife were relatively crying during the New Year.

When Ye Jiaxing cried in front of his parents, he couldn't complain about the pain in his body. He could only sigh that his family was too poor, and he was bullied because of it.

Ye Jiaxing's brothers were not much better, they were also beaten up when their parents dragged them home.

But they all said that they didn't do anything, they just helped their brother when he was about to be beaten.

How can you not be loyal as a brother!
Their parents said they were stupid, when others were fighting, why would they help?
Ye Jiaxing fights with rich people for girls, and doesn't look at their family's situation. Will Hongji's daughter marry him?
Those boys were said so by their parents, and they were not optimistic about them, and they were complained by their parents. Now that the family has no land to cultivate, what will happen after the New Year!
The boys who had always been lazy in the past were a little helpless at the moment. After their parents said that the second day of the Lunar New Year was over, they were asked to go to the mountains to open up wasteland by themselves.

And grow food, otherwise you will be hungry in the future.

All of them were frowning, feeling that they would not be able to be idle in the days to come.

It's better for Ye Jiaxing to go to work than to open up wasteland like him.

When thinking about it, one by one asked their parents to help them go to Hongji's house and tell them that they would go to their house to work after the new year.

Originally, it was a good thing for my son to stop being lazy and think of going to work to make money for the family, but he was not happy about being exchanged for such a painful price.

So the family discussed to go to Hongji's house after the second day of the Lunar New Year, so that the extra labor force that they didn't have to farm would go to work.

Many people already know that the manors that Hongji bought are going to hire people again. It's not Chinese New Year yet, and they haven't decided whether to go or not.

After this incident, the helpers of Hongji's family did not have to worry about not being able to hire people.

……

Hongji hugged the youngest daughter and took the five daughters back home. He didn't care who came to see the daughters were fine, and took them to the room and told them not to go out.

In the future, those rich man's daughters will not be allowed to send invitation letters.

As the eldest sister, Ye Luoqi felt that she didn't protect her younger sisters well, so she shouldn't go to the appointment.

But what happened later was not what she wanted. After this quarrel, her reputation was affected.

Among the sisters, Ye Fengqi was the first to say angrily:
"Father, who knew they were so smug, why should they look down on them! Whoever invites them will not go in the future!"

As for the five invitation letters received today, after an incident happened, those four of course did not go.

Hongji's face was so bad that the sisters were told not to go out, and they had been in the room to meet people who visited, and those who didn't want to see them to disappear.

At this moment, they couldn't have imagined that they were missed by the other party.

After Hongji told his daughter, he walked out uneasy in her sensible eyes. There were too many people visiting today, so he just ran out in a hurry and left the guests behind.

Mrs. Li also received the villagers with her son in her arms. She kept looking at the gate of the yard. She was relieved to see that her husband had returned with her daughters. The daughters were not injured at all.

Hongji's father didn't know what happened in the farce outside. He was drinking with a few people of the same age at this time, listening to others' flattery.

Afraid of the cold, Lai stayed in the room, and asked the workers to put the food on the table in the room, and looked out the window while eating. As long as the yard entered, people could pass through her eyes.

Staying in the room during the Chinese New Year is another thought in Lai Shi's mind.

Most of the people who came to visit their house were poor people. They came in empty-handed during Chinese New Year. They not only ate their food, but also wanted to get their red envelopes.

Lai's stingy was thinking, there is no way for these people to get her red envelope.

The custom here is that if you meet someone who is older than you, if you are rich, you will also give red envelopes, and the younger generation like her and the older generation will also give red envelopes, let alone those little dolls.

After such an analysis, there are not 1000 people in the village, but 800. If you give dozens or hundreds of red envelopes, even if it is stingy, a copper plate and a red envelope are not a lot.

She wouldn't be like Hongji, Mrs. Li didn't listen to the persuasion of the rich, and gave out so many red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.

Acer: ...

The five sisters stayed in the room for only a while. After all, it was the New Year, and they still had the mentality of children. Facing the food on the table, they began to forget the unpleasantness just now.

Ye Shiqi was not interested in the melon seeds, peanuts, and some fried food on the table, thinking it was a kind of junk food.

People in ancient times didn't know how to make vegetable oil or peanut oil, and the fried food was all pork oil.

Eating such food is not only fat and easy to gain weight, but also affects some body functions.

In the ancient times when medicine was underdeveloped, a little illness and pain would turn a person from a small illness into a serious one, and he couldn't afford it.

She likes to eat some soft rice cakes, so she also took a piece of rice cakes made of lotus root powder, with sesame seeds and peanuts inside. It was soft and glutinous, with a sweet taste.

Ye Shiqi suddenly remembered what happened last night, what happened last night, what the king gave, she hadn't had time to look at it.

At this moment, I was a little anxious to take a look, and was about to go back to the room, when a group of little guests came to their house.

These little guests are the girls who went to see the lion dance with them just now.

They came to their house, asked the workers where the five sisters were, and went straight to their room.

When they entered the room and saw the five sisters eating and seeing the abundance of food on the table, their worried expressions turned into greedy swallowing.

Ye Luoqi asked the servant girl to carry stools for so many little girls, and the servant girl looked at so many people in embarrassment.

Looking at the past, there are at least dozens of people. This big room is full of people. It is so crowded just standing like this. There is not enough room for them to sit down!
The little girl gradually seemed to understand the servant girl's thoughts, and said one after another that she didn't need to sit down.

This is a village where there are only dozens of girls?
There are also those who are about the same age as them, and there are more than that.

The idea that many children are many blessings is deeply rooted in people's hearts. As long as they can have children and support them, every family has eighteen children, especially those families where several brothers live together, adding up to dozens of children.

Especially like their five sisters, if the first child is not a son, many daughters will be born next, and they will also have babies for the sake of sons.

Although some parents had already given birth to two sons and wanted to have more sons, some of them gave birth to daughters.

Ye Luoqi arranged for the maid to share food with everyone, and soon there was nothing on the table.

The maid had no choice but to go outside and bring the food in. Fortunately, the mistress made preparations, and the workers were busy making food the day before.

Although it hurts a little, so many people eat so much food, she has to do what the eldest lady ordered.

The girls who eat in the room are very happy. The family also cooks a lot of food during the Chinese New Year, but there are too many brothers and sisters in the family, and the parents and elders are not willing to give them too many snacks all at once!
Especially as the first lower girl in the family, they don't get more food.

The food at this restaurant is better than the ones made at their home. This should be the food made by the chef, and it is really different.

The girls ate food happily, cherishing the food on their hands, and did not eat what was on their hands in two bites.

Not only did they get pastries and snacks, but they also got candies, melon seeds and peanuts. Even though they didn't get much, they also made them smile happily.

Some girls began to care about gossip while eating, things that have just passed.

"Ye Luoqi, after hearing that Ye Jiaxing had a quarrel with the rich man's daughter, the rich man became cruel and stopped Ye Jiaxing and his brothers from farming the land they rented from the rich man."

"Yes, our house is right next door to them, and we heard their parents beating them. They were croaking, and they were all worried that there would be no land rent after the new year, and there would be no food for the land without cultivation."

As soon as the two girls talked, Ye Luoqi clenched her hands tightly. Why did someone else's farming matter get involved? The matter became more and more serious, and she couldn't help but feel worried.

Ye Xinqi noticed the expression on the elder sister's face, and knew that it was inconvenient for the elder sister to say anything, and felt that she was heartless, so she stood up for the elder sister and said:
"It has nothing to do with us, and it has nothing to do with my eldest sister. Those people are arrogant and unreasonable. Their actions are disgusting!"

Although the girls in the village nodded, they were not so optimistic.

"Who is afraid of them? Our family has no shortage of land, let alone renting their land!"

Ye Fengqi said so.

Ye Shiqi thought of the manor that her family had just bought as a joint venture. The mountain of this manor had not been developed, and the mountain of the other manor that had been built had not been developed, and there was a shortage of people to work.

As a child, it is inconvenient for her to speak like this. Smart people will come up with various ways of living for their own lives.
