Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 394
The Guan family’s fields are six-point paddy fields, one mu of mountainous land and two mu of sandy land. The mountainous land and sandy land belong to Guan Wen and Guan Wu respectively. Guan Ming doesn’t have the heart to bother with this now, so he just watches the paddy field harvest every autumn. If there is no food, it is better to have a bumper harvest and eat rice.

Before the family split, the three brothers Guan Wen, Guan Wu, and Guan Quan were in charge of the paddy fields, but after the separation, all the management of the paddy fields fell on Guan Quanquan.Now that Guan Quan has let go and went to the town, the paddy fields are really neglected.

But thinking about the one-third of an acre of land, they were all purchased when they were old and young. If the paddy fields are desolate, or because no one takes care of them, weeds will grow inside, and there will be no harvest in autumn. Guan Wen couldn't bear it either.

"Father, is he taking care of the paddy field now?" Guan Wen asked aloud.

"Who knows about him." Guan Wu replied, "He hasn't been in the field for a long time. Even if he does, he probably won't be able to do well."

Guan Wen sighed lightly.

Guan Wudao: "Brother, don't worry about their affairs. They like to plant or not to clean up the paddy fields. If they don't clean up, they will wait to drink the northwest wind. It's really annoying to let them be lazy. I'm sorry to say it - he has that spare time to go to the village to gamble with people, and if he has free time, is he afraid that he won't be able to take care of the six-point paddy fields?"

Guan Wen twitched his lips and smiled: "He is a round or two older than us. In terms of energy, he is indeed not as good as us. Right now he has to take care of the sixth brother."

"Guan Zhicheng is just pretending, he likes to pretend to be pitiful." Guan Wu sneered and said, "Brother, you won't hurt his muscles and bones if you beat him. You can lie down for two days at most, and you are guaranteed to get up. Who are you bluffing?" he."

Guan Wu looked down on Guan Zhicheng quite a lot, and he hadn't concealed his dissatisfaction and disgust for Guan Zhicheng for a long time.Hearing what Guan Wu said, Guan Wen didn't have much to say, he just sighed softly and said, "Leave the Liufen paddy field alone, it depends on how daddy handles it."

"Should it be sold?"

Guan Wu looked at Guan Wen and puffed up his chest slightly: "It's possible. If he doesn't take good care of him, he will be left unused. Isn't it necessary to raise money for Guan Zhicheng to go to the state capital? If there is really no other way Maybe dad will really think about selling the paddy field."

Guan Wen's face darkened, and Xing'er frowned and said to Guan Wu, "It's not possible, no matter how poor and miserable, it's not possible to sell the land and the house. The land and the house are the capital for living and living, even if you have nothing in the future Now, I have a shelter, guarding a little land, planting and eating whatever I want, so I won’t starve to death.” Xing’er said, “No matter how foolish I am, I won’t sell the fields and houses. Bar?"

"Then there's nothing wrong with it. Daddy has no brains. He was fooled by Guan Zhicheng, so he listened to him in everything." Guan Wu raised his legs and said to Xing'er: "That field was bought by my grandfather, and he doesn't feel bad if he wants to sell it."

Xing'er was speechless immediately, looked at Li Xin, frowning slightly.

Li Xin hesitated for a moment, looked at Guan Wen and asked, "Ah Wen, what do you say?"

"Shouldn't be able to get to that step." Guan Wen took a sip of the mild insect tea, sighed and said, "No matter what, it's impossible for Dad not to know the truth that the field is fundamental. If it's not a last resort, he might No land will be sold."

"The price of the land is not too high at the moment, and today we encourage the reclamation of wasteland." Xing'er said: "The magistrate of the county encourages the reclamation of wasteland, and the price is still very low. The wasteland is really reclaimed, and the original land is also reclaimed." It’s even more worthless.”

Li Xin's heart skipped a beat—her elder brother bought her a hundred acres of wasteland in Li's Village!Taking advantage of the low price per mu of land for land reclamation, it is a good deal.Although we haven't decided what to plant, but if we open up wasteland, we can make the best use of everything. At that time, the cost will be recovered no matter what, and it may be better to develop a large industry?

"So Dad should not do such a loss-making business. The selling price is much lower than the buying price." Guan Wen sighed and said, "Let's take a step and see. He really wants to sell the land. We will discuss it later. Anyway, Dad can’t sell this land.”

"Brother, Dad really wants to sell the land, don't you want to buy the land?" Guan Wu stared at Guan Wen with wide-eyed eyes.

Guan Wen paused for a moment, smiled and said, "Isn't this still not there yet?"

"Then what if dad really plans to sell it?" Guan Wu continued to ask.

"……talk later."

Guan Wen didn't make a clear statement, but Li Xin could hear the meaning behind the words.

He was reluctant to let that piece of land fall into the hands of others. No matter what, he had taken care of the Liufen paddy field since he was a child. Even before the separation, he was still in charge of that piece of land. The feeling of the land is self-evident.Furthermore, that piece of land was bought by Lao Guan when he was young, and he would not be willing to let Guan Ming sell the land that Lao Guan worked so hard on so easily.

Li Xin didn't express his opinion, only a faint smile on his face.

As far as she is concerned, whether Guan Wen will step forward to buy the paddy field when Guan Ming sells the six-fen paddy field does not have much influence on her.It is Guan Wen's own business to buy it and take care of it. If she really buys it, she will not suffer a loss if she can eat the rice grown by herself during the autumn harvest.

Yes, now her request is that no matter what, she can't suffer from Guan Ming and Guan Chengshou.

Money, they don't want to come and take a dime from her, and they don't even want to take a little bit of money.In the past, he hadn't torn his face when he let it go, but now that his face has been torn, what reason and family relationship can he talk to them?

Seeing that he couldn't find out why, Guan Wu didn't ask, but he patted his chest very loyally and said, "Brother, if you really bought the land and you are too busy, my brother will definitely help you!"

Guan Wen smiled gratifiedly, nodded and said "OK".

Xing'er asked Li Xin softly, "Diao Laoyao doesn't have any letters, does he?"

Li Xin shook his head and said, "I didn't ask this, what's the matter? Did Yinhuan tell you something?"

"That's not true." Xing'er shook her head slightly: "The incident happened, and it's not too short a time. The last time Diao Laoyao asked her father-in-law to marry his mother, it happened that grandpa fell ill, so I didn't mention this matter again. , but I didn't expect Diao Laoyao to be so calm."

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Maybe he is waiting and watching the timing?"

"That's what I mean." Myolie hurriedly said, "I've been idling at home during this period of time, thinking about everything, and thinking about Diao Laoyao, I have a faint feeling in my heart that he It seems to be waiting for something. According to A Wu, the old demon Diao has not broken contact with his father-in-law during this period, and he still goes to the old house to have a meal or something every now and then, and his father-in-law did not show any other emotions. They don't push people away, but they don't warmly welcome them..."

Xing'er lowered her voice and whispered to Li Xin: "Could it be that seeing that father-in-law is gone now, he is thinking to see if the sixth younger brother can win the election. If there is such a thing of glory, he will force father-in-law Marry his mother?"

Li Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "It's possible."

Xing'er grabbed Li Xin's arm and said, "I said it must be like this. Hey, if it's really like this, what should I do?"

Li Xin had a half-smile: "Xing'er, do you think Guan Zhicheng can be admitted to Juren?"

Xing'er also knew that Guan Zhicheng's fame as a scholar was bought with money, and she suddenly realized when she heard Li Xin's question, but she still frowned slightly: "That's not necessarily true, sometimes luck is good, but it can't be stopped. "

"Luck is good, so you have to be prepared." Li Xin said: "As long as he doesn't do business every day and specializes in researching some dubious things, no matter how good his luck is, he can't grasp it."

Xing'er thought about it too, and nodded slightly.

As it was getting dark, Guan Wu carefully protected Xing'er, called Xiao Kang to go back together, turned his head to greet Guan Wen, and said that he would get up early tomorrow to lay stone slabs.Guan Wen also said that he will continue to pick stone slabs tomorrow, trying to pave the path within five or six days.

Things at home were going on in an orderly manner. While Guan Wen and Guan Wu were busy with their work, Li Xin was also not idle.There has been a lot of dust recently, so she took Amei to clean up the house, including the tables, chairs, cabinets and boxes.Yang'er also came up to help, handing Li Xin a handkerchief and wiping his sister's sweat, causing Li Xin and his sister to praise him for being good.

The old juncture is sitting comfortably in the courtyard and basking in the sun. Occasionally, I can stand up and walk around the rocking chair with a cane, with a happy smile on my face, and the name Yang'er is called more and more. By the way, looking at the condition seems to be showing signs of improvement.

Guan Wen was naturally very happy. Today, he went to the old master to discuss the matter of digging the cellar. After the discussion was completed, he sent the old master away. Drink it, and the condition of the old juncture will be better and faster.

Guan Wen, Guan Wu and Feng Defa worked together to pave the stone slabs of the path in just four days.Without the softness of the mud, it is hard to step on, and you are not afraid of small landslides. There are ladders and ladders, or a flat ground, surrounded by trees and bamboos, and the fragrance of the soil. Standing in it, there are winding paths leading to seclusion. artistic conception.

Yang'er and Xiaokang couldn't wait to walk along the path, counting while walking, holding hands and walking towards Guan Wu.

Guan Wu watched the two children pass by with a smile, and said to Guan Wen: "This road has been repaired, brother, you will be busy with your cellar next, right?"

Guan Wen nodded with a smile, looked away, and said to Guan Wu: "I discussed it with the master, and he can bring people to work tomorrow."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Xin and said with a smile, "Do you still remember the five jumps?"

Li Xin suddenly laughed: "Why don't you remember, the kid who said his mother gave birth to him after dancing five times? He was working with Master Wu in front of us?"

"That's him." Guan Wen said with a smile: "He will come with the master tomorrow. This kid said that he doesn't like farming at home, but he likes to work with the master."

"He's young, so he can watch and learn more, so he won't suffer in the future. It's not as easy as farming." Li Xin laughed.
