It was getting late when we went back, and after sending the yamen servant back, the family hurried back to the second courtyard.

Everyone is waiting for the news of the land purchase, and everyone is very happy when they hear that the soil is fertile.

"Okay, let's eat first! After dinner, the six of you brothers and your daughters-in-law will come to my mother's room to talk with you."

Qi Zheng spoke, and everyone immediately agreed.

Qi Dalang knew that his father, mother, and the others wanted to discuss business with his grandparents, so he took his younger brothers to take up the work of cleaning up the dishes and kitchen.

In the main room in the back room, Qi Zheng was sitting on the top of the kang, smoking a cigarette, and Qi Cheng was sitting on the quilt on the side of the kang, accompanied by a rare person beside him.

On the ground and beside the kang are six sons and six daughters-in-law standing or sitting.

Everyone looked at Qi Zheng, as if waiting for the other party to speak.

When Qi Cheng saw that the old man was still taking two puffs of cigarettes, he got angry: "Bada, you can't wait until you have finished talking? The whole family has been busy for a day, and everyone is exhausted. Why don't you know how to feel sorry for everyone?" ?”

Qi Zheng glared at the old wife, but he didn't take those two puffs of cigarettes any more. He tapped twice, and took another sip of the tea handed over by his eldest son, and then said: "There are a few things going on in our family, I will Talk about it, listen to it, see what’s wrong, or if you have any other ideas, say it, and let’s study it together.”

After hearing this, everyone straightened their backs and nodded in unison.

Qi Zheng sighed, and said: "You have also seen the matter of looking at the land today. The fourth couple saw it with their own eyes. The soil is black, and the official also said that the land in Tabei Prefecture is fertile. So I bought it. Let the fourth child and the second child handle this matter tomorrow."

"This is the first thing, and the next second thing is that after the land deed is issued, you brothers will go to the land you bought with the fourth brother in the name of going out to cut firewood. What are you going to do specifically? , when the time comes, you just listen to the fourth child."

"Then there is the third thing, which is about your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."

After a pause, Qi Zheng glanced at the neatly placed wooden shelves leaning against the opposite corner, and the wooden boxes placed on top of the wooden shelves, all of which were covered with about four-fifths of soil.

"The soil in these boxes is used for growing vegetables. Although the fourth daughter-in-law came up with this method, when it comes to growing vegetables, the fourth daughter-in-law is no match for you sisters-in-law. "

"That's why you sisters-in-law have to work harder on growing vegetables. As for the fourth daughter-in-law, don't be idle and help me when you can."

As a father-in-law, Qi Zheng never showed favoritism towards any daughter-in-law, so even if he had privately determined that Yi Meng was the daughter-in-law in charge of the family's money, he still would not show his preference for her on the surface.

Yi Meng agreed immediately.

The other daughters-in-law of the Qi family also hurriedly expressed their views.

Qi Dafu scratched his head, and couldn't help asking: "Father, the fourth sibling doesn't know how to farm anyway, why don't we let her continue teaching the children how to read?"

"Aren't there still Mr. Qin and Mr. Yin?"

Qi Zheng asked back.

Qi Dafu shook his head: "So there are, but recently there have been people getting sick in those two courtyards, and the two doctors have to go back and forth several times a day to look at them."

Qi Ercai also echoed: "Yes, I also heard Mr. Qin and Mr. Yin say this afternoon that they want to move to the side of the compound, saying that it is convenient to go back and forth."

For the matter of curing diseases and saving lives, Qi Zheng really has nothing to do, he can only look at Yi Meng.

Yi Meng understood, and hurriedly said: "I usually take the children to learn how to read after I finish my work. But what I read is not very reasonable, so Dad, why don't you ask if there is a school in the city? Accept students?"

The Qi family's children are obedient, but even the most obedient children will have a certain rebellious mentality.

Especially the Qi family didn't seem to have the muscle for reading. It was more difficult for everyone to read and read than to drink soup and medicine.

If it weren't for the fact that they were all her own children, Yi Meng would have quit long ago.

Now when it comes to finding a school, everyone's spirits are shocked.

It is completely different in the hearts of the elders to know that the child does not have the muscle to study, and to completely give up his own child to study.

Even if there is a Yimeng in the family who can enlighten the children, it is not as decent as going to school after all.

Especially the brothers who already knew that the family had a lot of money, all of them looked at their father with bright eyes at this time, hoping that the other party would nod and agree to this matter.

Qi Zheng was also moved when he heard this proposal, but after thinking about it seriously, he shook his head: "We just settled here, renting a house and buying land, which is already very eye-catching."

"If others don't talk about it, let's just talk about Uncle Zhou and his family. If we make such a fuss, they can be considered not jealous, but can they have no thoughts in their hearts?"

"Everyone in the village knows what our family's wealth was like before. Even if we sell a ginseng, the price of a ginseng is there, and we can still use it forever?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts sank.

At the same time, everyone calmed down.

Wang Daya couldn't help asking: "Father, how much money does our family have now?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone in the room looked at her until her scalp became numb, and said with a sneer, "I'll just ask casually, no, needless to say."

"Your mother and I don't know the exact amount of money yet, but after buying the land, there will definitely be nothing left. Next, our family's income depends on you. You sisters-in-law grow vegetables well, and only those that are easy to grow Let’s sell the small green vegetables before the year.”

"There are also you guys. When you are all safe and sound, go out and chop more firewood if you have nothing to do. Our house is now a big place, and the houses where people live have to be burned more moderately. This firewood cannot be saved. If there is more , and you can go out and sell it for a while, with three or five liters, it is always an income.”

Following Qi Zheng's words, everyone began to nod in agreement.

Everyone has sent work, although the income may not be very high, but it has a lot of money.

"Okay, let's do this first! Go back early and rest, get up early in the morning, what should you be busy with?"

After a pause, Qi Zheng looked at Qi Cheng again: "Old lady, do you have anything to ask?"

Qi Chengshi glared at him.

After saying "this is it first", I remembered to ask myself.

Qi Cheng looked at the daughters-in-law and said, "Go back and check how much food is left at home. Fourth daughter-in-law, go back to the two yards and ask. If you really can't make it through, see if it's for sale." It’s still on credit, after all, people can’t come here and be starved to death.”

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

The old lady has the darkest mouth but the softest heart. No one thought of this, but she was the only one who cared about it.
