Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 32
After the three-volt period, there were several autumn rains, and the cold air in Dengzhou gradually grew.

There are only two months left before Dongyue. Fences have been erected on the dozens of miles of land in Sun Xin's Zhuangzi. Within the fence, Sun Xin led the farmer to open up more than 500 mu of land, and all the land was laid down. Wells were built, irrigation canals were combed, and supporting retting pits were built. At this time, corn and lush winter wheat that were about to be harvested were all growing.

And as the wedding day got closer, Hu Sanniang ran more and more frequently to the ten-mile card, and Taigong Hu seemed to be too lazy to care about it in desperation.

Early this morning, Sun Li brought Mrs. Le to the Sun Family Village.

As soon as he entered the house, he bumped into Hu Sanniang.

The uncle came to see the wedding room but saw the daughter-in-law who hadn't been through the door sitting in the room at this time, which made Hu Sanniang blush a little, and got up embarrassedly.

Fortunately, Sun Xin appeared in time, carrying a medicine basket and holding a small hoe, and said to Hu Sanniang, "Everything is ready, let's go up the mountain."

Today Sun Xin called Hu Sanniang to come to collect herbs together.

Hu Sanniang blushed in response, Sun Xin greeted Sun Li and took Hu Sanniang out together.

After Sun Xin left the house, Sun Licai called Jie Zhen Jie Bao.

"Go and call all the three heads of the village."

As the time came to the end of autumn, the first crop of corn was coming down soon. The corn varieties brought by Sun Xin were not suitable for fresh consumption and were used to make corn noodles, but considering that everyone had never tasted the taste of corn, so When it was relatively tender, Sun Xin asked the dealers on Zhuangzi to break up a batch for everyone to take back and try something new.

"Father, you have another stick... don't you really want to stay for a few more days before going?"

In a simple but neat small room, Gu Jia held a corn cob in his hand and handed it to his father, Gu Fu.

After coming to Sunjiazhuang, although Sun Xin did not pay Sister Gu, she still helped them open a few acres of vegetable land for Sister Gu to plant, and usually bought some vegetables from her to give Sister Gu some income.

Sister Gu knew it in her heart, so she was diligent in her work. She went to the vegetable garden with her sister-in-law early this morning to hoe, and the children in the family also went to play, so at this time there were only Gu Jia and Gu Fu on the kang.

Gu Fu picked up the stick and gnawed a couple of mouthfuls. For the first time people eat this kind of fresh and sweet food, they feel that it is fresh and delicious. Gu Fu, who came to his son's house for a short stay in the past few days, also likes this kind of food. Gu Jia He almost ate all the tender corn that he got as the head of the farm when he was bored, and even Gu Jia's son didn't even eat a few.

Gu Fu chewed the corn and said: "There are only a few people in this village, it's really boring, I'm leaving today, and you can bring me some corn cobs later."

Gu Jia knew his father's character, and he couldn't persuade him, so he nodded.

At this moment, the door was suddenly knocked several times.

"Which one?"

"Gu Jia, Brother Sun Li told all our village heads to gather at Brother Sun Xin's house."

"got it."

Gu Jia responded to Xie Zhen before going.

Gu Fu said: "What could it be?"

Gu Jia laughed and said, "Most likely Sun Xin is getting married, so Sun Li suggested something to us."

Gu Fu frowned instantly, "What's the point of him getting married? That woman wasn't sent to our room!"

Gu Jia didn't want to take the money either, but he said: "Give me some, and next year we will plant the land in his village. Things like this kind of favor will have to go."

Hearing this, Gu Fu sat back on the kang again, and said, "In this case, I will go for you."

Gu Jia was startled.

"Daddy, don't disturb the muddy water!"

When Gu Fu heard the words, he said angrily: "Pickled things, how dare you say that about your father?"

Gu Fu was furious, Gu Jia had no choice but to let Gu Fu go instead.

In the courtyard, there was an earthen room with bright windows and bright tiles. On the Eight Immortals table, Sun Li sat in the position of the right hand with Li Zhi on his left, Zou Yuan on the opposite side, and Gu Fu on his right.

Gu Fu only said that his son Gu Jia had a bad stomach and couldn't come, so he came here instead. They are all a family, and the father makes decisions for his son, which is his own family business, so Sun Li naturally didn't say anything.

He cleared his throat and said, "Everyone has been working on my little brother's Zhuangzi for the past few months, do you feel that life is still going well?"

Both Li Zhi and Zou Yuan nodded.

So Sun Li said: "You also know that my younger brother will marry Hu Sanniang of Hu's Village in two months. Since he is the owner of the village, as the head of the tenants, how much do you think of?"

Gu Jia guessed right, this is the real reason why Sun Li came today, and the reason why he wanted to take advantage of Sun Xin's time to go out was because he mentioned it to Sun Xin several times before, but Sun Xin kept hemming and hawing, Sun Li It could be seen that Sun Xin didn't want to accept gift money from his village head, but in his opinion, this matter must be done.

These days, tenants and tenants of the land of the landlord should give some gifts to the landlord every year and festival. The gift does not say how heavy it is, but it is at least a catty of meat, two bottles of wine or a fish. Must get by.

However, Sun Li came to Sun Xinzhuang so many times, but he found that although the farmers in Sunjiazhuang were not lazy in their work, they had never shown such respect to Sun Xin.

It's one thing for Sun Xin to be kind and unwilling to show off in front of these dealers, but these dealers themselves didn't express it, which made Sun Li a little unhappy.

Those who don’t have money said that the farmer’s lack of face for Sun Xin is obviously bullying Sun Xin to talk, saying that Sun Xin will be looked down upon by other landlords, so Sun Li has to mention something today. them.

After he finished speaking, he exchanged glances with Zou Yuan, and then Zou Yuan, who was sitting beside him, said, "It's a great event for Sun Xinguan to welcome his relatives. I'll give you three taels of silver."

Zou Yuan first used three liang of silver to force the palace, but Gu Fu looked away when he said this, as if he didn't hear Zou Yuan's words at all.

On the other side, Li Zhi sat there like a Buddha, staring carefully at the teacup in front of him, as if he was in a state of concentration.

Sun Li looked at the two of them, "You two, this is a major event in my younger brother Sun Xin's life. If it is placed in other owners' homes, the housekeepers will come to the owner to collect money one by one."

The three taels of silver was the price he had negotiated with Zou Yuan before, and it wasn't a bad idea to say it out, and each of the three dealers had more than a dozen dealers, so it wouldn't be too much pressure to share it equally.

"Brother Li Zhi, Mr. Gu..."

Gu Fu's neck is a thorn in the side: "My family is very poor and has no money. I don't know what happened today. If it happened, I wouldn't come here."

"Furthermore, your grandson's family is rich and powerful, and you still need some taels of silver from us? It's a great event for you to get married, why haven't you given us any money?"

Sun Li was taken aback when he heard the words, and then slammed the table: "What I want is this face. You go back and ask your child, he knows how my Sun Xin treats you, is there such a master in other Zhuangzi?"

Sun Li was furious, and Li Zhi finally got scared too, and quickly said: "I will also send two taels of silver to Sun Xinguan to congratulate."

Two liang... Sun Li took a deep breath.

And at this moment, Gu Fu also hurriedly said: "In this case, we will also give a gift of one tael of silver. The family has difficulties, and there are really no more."

Sun Li sneered, squeezed his fist, and then nodded:

"Okay, you think that this money is wasted, so you don't want to spend more. If I pick on you, it would be a bad man's act, but I have this sentence: When my Sun Family Village develops in the future, it is because you missed the opportunity!"
