There is a little cute baby in the family, fleeing famine is not enough to get rich and busy

What each family talked about after returning to each house did not know each other.

In Quanquanjin's house, Yimeng asked Quanjin while taking care of the children while they were washing: "Brother Jin, I said before that I would take the other three families with me to grow vegetables. I didn't hear my father mention it today, so I don't plan to take them with me." ?"

"This one……"

Quan Qijin was squatting on the ground washing the family's socks, thought for a while, and said, "I guess it's our father who wants us to try it first, and if it works, then we can take everyone with us!"

Yi Meng frowned: "If that's the case, it's because of our good intentions. But..."

After thinking about it, Yi Meng still expressed her worries: "Small green vegetables are definitely worthless in summer, that is, they can be sold fresh in winter. If we tell the other three after we succeed, I'm afraid they will Can’t catch up with the good times of years ago.”

Now Quan Quanjin also felt bad.

At this time, Qi Manman was sitting on the kang in his middle coat, breaking his toes, and suddenly said: "Mom, I want to sleep with grandma."

"Ah? You've already taken off your clothes, don't go there tonight, sleep with your mother!"

Yi Meng doesn't want to make her daughter sick.

Qi Manman shook his head very seriously: "No, Man Baoer wants to sleep with grandma!"

Seeing the little girl's insistence, Yi Meng sighed helplessly, pulled a quilt to wrap her daughter tightly, and let Quan Quanjin carry her to the old lady's room.

Before going out, Yi Meng suddenly thought of something, and said: "Ask what my father means, and see what the old man's rules are."

"Hey, I see."

Quan Quanjin didn't even pause, hugged the fragrant and soft daughter, and left the room without looking back.

Not long after, Qi Quanjin came back and brought back news to Yi Meng: "Father said that he will call all the uncles of the three families over tomorrow to sit down and discuss this matter. If they want to do it, they can bring it with them. If they don't want to do it, they can bring it with them. , just want another way to make money.”

"Sure, as long as Dad has an idea."

Yi Meng didn't think too much, she tidied up and lay down to rest.

Early the next morning, the second son of the Qi family got busy in the yard.

According to the previous rules in my hometown, the eldest to the fourth daughter-in-law of the four families are in groups of two, one group per day, and take turns responsible for three meals a day at home.

Although Yi Meng's cooking is delicious, Qi Cheng dislikes her cooking with too much food, so Yi Meng is generally not allowed to enter the kitchen.

Yi Meng was not idle either, and directly took over the work of counting the food stored at home.

Qi Ercai and Quanquanjin went out early in the morning, but instead of going directly to the government office, they went to the bank.

The previous silver was selected by the brothers overnight and cut into pieces of silver of different sizes, especially the places with marks were all polished off.

I went through all the banks in the city, and finally got four 500 taels of silver notes.

It was almost noon when I went to the government office after tossing.

After taking a few taels of silver and doing some sorting, before the sun went down, a land deed covering more than [-] mu of wasteland was finally recorded in Qi Zheng's name.

The remaining four brothers of the Qi family took Qi Dalang to drive the carriage out of the city early in the morning to cut firewood, and at the same time called the other three families to join them.

So Yimeng called Qi Erlang and Qi Sanlang to help move the food, while Qi Silang and Qi Wulang helped record the data.

After eating breakfast, Qi Zheng took his cigarette stick to the yard where the three families lived.

Not long after, the four old men came to the second courtyard together.

……

After a busy day, the five carriages brought out by those who went out to chop firewood were piled high with piles of firewood. One of the carriages was allocated to the other two yards, and the remaining four carriages went to the second courtyard.

This is winter, and everyone is too lazy to go out, otherwise such a big battle might scare the neighbors out of their wits.

At dinner that night, Qi Zheng told the news that the other three families were also growing vegetables together.

However, the yard they live in is small. Although they have a small vegetable garden, it is not easy to dig the soil.

And the Qi family's backyard wanted to expand the puddle even more, so they simply asked them to dig the soil and take it away.

That night, Yi Meng personally sent her daughter to the old man's house, and at the same time mentioned another thing: "Father, we dug a puddle for the backyard and stored snow, but the rent for our yard has not been paid for a few months." , do you think you should ask the second brother to renew the lease for a period of time, or just buy the yard directly?"

"What?"

Qi Cheng exploded when he heard it: "Still buying this yard? How much will it cost!"

Not to mention Qi Cheng's, even Qi Zheng was taken aback.

Yi Meng expected that her mother-in-law would have such a reaction, so she was not in a hurry at the moment, but explained softly: "Father, mother, think about it, the land we bought is not too close to the city. It takes three hours to get back. It’s not safe to go to the city one day and encounter wind and rain.”

"So, I wonder if we can buy this yard, so that if there are any special circumstances in the future, we can also go directly to the city to live, and don't have to worry about not having a place to live."

In fact, Yi Meng wanted to say that if you encounter robbers, or go to war, it is better to hide in the city than in the village.

It's said that the new village will build a wall, but I don't know how long it will be!
But she refrained from saying this, fearing that after saying this, the two elders would not even be able to sleep at night.

Qi Zheng glanced at Yi Meng, and said: "Your mother and I will think about this matter, you should go back and rest first!"

"it is good."

Yi Meng also talked too much, put down her daughter and left.

It's just that what Yi Meng doesn't know is that the worry she didn't dare to say, the two elders mentioned when they couldn't sleep at night and chatted.

It turned out to be similar to Yi's dream. The two old people turned around like pancakes at night and couldn't fall asleep.

But the matter of buying a yard did not come to a conclusion the next day, and everyone continued to get busy as planned.

The three families did not go to cut firewood today, because they had a busy day yesterday and there was a lot of firewood at home, and the elderly were reluctant to let their sons and grandchildren suffer from the cold again.

The other one had to go to the backyard of the Second Academy to dig soil, but they couldn't do it with just a few old guys.

So the Qi brothers naturally left the city under the pretext of continuing to chop firewood.

This time, the guys had everything they needed, and there were so many people, that after less than half an hour of digging, everyone discovered what the hole Qi Manman had found.

"This, this is a big puddle!"

Qi Dafu looked at the ice surface that he had dug out in front of him, and couldn't help taking a breath: "I don't know how big this puddle is, but if it's big enough, it will be much more convenient for us to use water on weekdays."

The land their family bought is big enough, but... there is no water source nearby.

The nearest water source has to go far away.

Qi Quanjin didn't expect that this place was actually a puddle, so he asked everyone: "Let's dig a little longer today, and then chop some firewood back in the afternoon, how about it?"
