Chapter 106 Planning
Dong Dacheng smiled and said: "The head of the mountain ordered me to tidy up the house and complete everything that is missing. These are my new ones. Young master Du, please see what is missing, just tell me, I will make it right for you .”

"It's really troublesome for the head of the mountain. Director Dong, please thank the head of the mountain for us." Chen said gratefully.

"What's the trouble? Young Master Ling is a student of the head of the mountain. He will be a teacher for a day and a father for life. The head of the mountain should be more considerate for Young Master Du." Dong Dacheng laughed.

"Where is the field allocated to us?" Du Jinning asked.

"It's just outside." Dong Dacheng said, "We draw the fields here based on the principle of proximity. The original owner of this house has [-] acres of land, all of which are in front of the house. Now that they have moved, these fields will be It belongs to you. If you have any requirements on the size of the field, you can also raise it, and I will help you adjust it."

"Fifteen acres is just right, so don't bother." Du Jinning said.

Chen opened her mouth, wanting to speak, but in the end she didn't make a sound.

They used to cultivate the Du family's 25 mu of land.Fifteen acres is too little in her opinion now.In the past, he had worked so hard for the Du family. It was impossible for him to work for his own family. Instead, he became lazy and raped.Everywhere in the family needs money, even thirty mu is not too little for her, let alone fifteen mu.

But it's not easy to mention.This is not a barren hill, there are as many acres as you want to open.Those fields are planted by others, and they need more than a dozen acres to open their mouths. Wouldn't others have to plant less?She can't let Du Jinning leave a bad impression in front of the head of the mountain because of greed.

Let's discuss it with Du Jinning first.

Everyone followed Dong Dacheng to look at the fields outside.

This is a hilly area with many hills and rivers, and the fields are irregular.The same is true for the fifteen acres given to the Du family. Except for the seven or eight acres that are contiguous, the others are all one piece.However, they are all separated by field ridges, so water and fertilizer conservation is no problem.These fields are also filled with green manure.

Although this is a rented field, it is also his own field.

The members of the Du family were full of joy.

"Everyone on the back mountain opens up wasteland to grow corn. The harvest there is their own, and they don't need to pay rent to the academy. It turns out that Zhu's family also opened a piece. I will take you to see it when I go up the mountain tomorrow."

Dong Dacheng said, and said: "I will ask someone to carry the grain for you in a while. I will give you two hundred catties first, and then ask for it from me if it is not enough. These grains are lent to you by the academy, and they will be harvested in autumn next year." If you have lost the rice, you will return it.”

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she became even more joyful: "Thank you, the head of the mountain and Director Dong, for thinking about us." With these grains, they can tide over the difficulties.Otherwise, it would be too wasteful for the Chen family who has been farming all his life to spend money to buy grain.You must know that all the money in and out is earned by the businessman.

Seeing that Du Jinning was fine, Dong Dacheng pointed to the house not far away and said, "I live there. My wife's surname is Zhao. If you have anything to do, feel free to find me. Don't be an outsider." After saying that, he left leave.

The family looked at the field and walked home happily. Du Fangfei said: "Tomorrow we will reclaim a few acres of land and plant some vegetables. It is too early to leave spring, and we can plant another crop of cabbage and radishes." .”

Du Jinning did not object.Mother and sister all want to rely on their own labor to earn money to support the family, which is a good thing.Otherwise, seeing that she can make money, everyone would want to be lazy and not do things or do less work, and she would definitely feel uncomfortable in her heart.

As for growing strawberries, the seedlings will not be divided until the beginning of spring.And there are only two plants. If you want to grow into a patch, it will take time to till the tillers, and it is still too early to make money.So she didn't mention it to her family.

"Brother Ning, buy some fish tomorrow. I'll make a table of dishes. You invite the mountain chief to come over for dinner and express your gratitude." Chen Shi said.

"Okay." Du Jinning nodded.

"Take your sisters to the street in a while, buy some bedding, and make some clothes for each of them. If there is anything lacking in the house, we will buy it together. Let's move here, and we don't need to hide the money. " Du Jinning said again, "As for the debt you owe and my tuition fee, you don't have to worry about it, I will take care of it. Besides, there is still money in making dried tofu. You and your sister can start making it from tomorrow. Take it to the street and sell it."

Hearing that dried tofu can be sold, Chen's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Although she felt that there was no rush to buy bedding and clothes, and it would not be too late to buy them when the family was rich, but she had her own considerations.

This place is no different from Taohua Village or Dalin Village. Their identities are no longer the Du family in Taohua Village, but they are labeled as Du Jinning. They are about to face her husband and classmates, like Dong Dacheng and the villagers in the village. people here.If they dress too shabby, they will lose face to Du Jinning, and they will make Du Jinning laugh at her classmates in the future.

Du Jinning was afraid that Mrs. Chen would not be willing to spend the money, so she immediately agreed when she saw her, very satisfied, took out two taels of silver from her pocket, and handed it over: "You take the money."

"No, I still have money, enough." Chen said.

Moving to Dalin Village, although the family bought tofu-making utensils and some necessary daily necessities, it only cost a few tens of renminbi, and it was the scattered copper coins that Du Jinning gave her; move.To build bedding and make clothes, two taels of silver are enough.

Du Jinning didn't insist either.

It stands to reason that she is a daughter, and the money in her hand should be handed over to Mrs. Chen.For example, the Du family, whether it's Du Chensheng or Du Yunnian, all the money they earn will be kept by the Niu family.But Du Jinning didn't want to do that.Her soul is an independent mature woman, not really a ten-year-old girl.Since she earned the money, she has the right to control it.In order not to ask Mrs. Chen for money when you need money, and to be timid about everything.

After confessing this, he took a key from the brass lock that was obviously newly bought. Du Jinning confessed and went to the academy.

Out of emotion and reason, she had to thank Guan Lehe and Yuan Xiuzhu.

Before leaving, she brought the calligraphy she practiced yesterday.

Although I have been tossing all morning and moved house, in fact it is only time, and there is still an hour before school ends at noon.When Du Jinning went to the academy, it happened that Guan Lehe lived in Huazhang.

Seeing Du Jinning coming over, Guan Lehe asked about her moving situation, the master and apprentice were courteous, and he began to inspect the homework.

"This word has improved a lot, which shows that you put your heart into it." After reading Du Jinning's handwriting, he nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Retell what I said yesterday."

After Du Jinning finished retelling, he became more and more satisfied.I pointed out the words she wrote again, and taught the new lesson for half an hour.

"Now that you live nearer, you don't have so many troubles at home. Come to me for an hour every day, and I will finish explaining some basic things to you. After the new year, you can take the exam in Class B."

Guan Lehe is very satisfied with Du Jinning's intelligence, and feels that she doesn't need to waste time on basics.Although there are some deficiencies, they can be slowly made up in the future study of Class B.

Du Jinning was a little depressed.

She didn't want to, she wanted to stay in the basic class for a few more years, preferably until she escaped.But Guan Lehe moved their family to a place so close to the academy, she was not allowed to be lazy anymore.She had to answer "yes" crisply, and she had to act very happy.

"Sir, where is Mr. Yuan's house?" Du Jinning asked, "The student took care of him that day, and I want to thank him."

Guan Lehe heard Yuan Xiuzhu's story about Du Jinning treating Yuan Xiuzhu's strawberries.

He smiled and said: "The old man is not in the academy most of the time, and he doesn't know where he is now. He confessed, there is no need to thank him specially, and he will send someone to look for you in two days."

Thinking of Yuan Xiuzhu's temper as a child, Du Jinning had no choice but to give up.

When he came out of Huazhangju, it was already the end of school at noon. Du Jinning was standing on the porch, thinking whether to go home directly or go to find Guan Jiaze, Zhang Hongwen and others, when he saw Guan Jiaze rushing in from the door. He came in and shouted, "Uncle, has Du Jinning been here?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Du Jinning, heaved a sigh of relief, ran over and grabbed her arm: "Go, go, come to the rescue with me."
