Chapter 374
Chapter [-]
"These aunts and aunts, don't they come here to ask us for a raise?" Jin Xi asked with a smile while stirring the pork liver soup in the bowl.

Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Sun paused in their hands, and Mrs. Sun was about to say, "Why, they are all from the door of my mother's house..."

Chunhua on the side had already glanced at Jinxi in surprise, then gave a thumbs up and said, "Girl Xi guessed very well, I heard some wind in the wind yesterday, and thought they were just joking, no Thinking of moving so fast, this one came to the door today!"

Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Sun were stunned. They were both from the gate of their natal family. How could they be like this?
"The wages paid by my family are not detrimental to them!" Sun said in surprise.

"Not only is there no loss, Sun Yunbao's wife happened to be pregnant with their second daughter when she was picking tea leaves. You see, she is a pregnant woman, and she paid double wages!" Chunhua said.

"That's what makes people want to swallow their elephants." Jin Xi put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a contemptuous smile.

These women in the mountains have been hired to pick tea leaves for the past two years, and now they suddenly have the idea of ​​processing money. If nothing else, it must be because Jinxi called them to take a blood test and donate blood two days ago, and gave them money. This method stimulated them and made them feel that Jin Xi's family was rich, and the money was almost tied to the income of the tea garden, so they were not reconciled to the original wages.

"Is Sun Yunbao's wife here today?" Jin Xi asked Chun Hua again, Chun Hua thought for a while and then shook her head, "I don't seem to have noticed."

Jin Xi nodded, this is still a bit enlightened!
"They are all from the gate of my mother's house, how can this be?" Mrs. Sun looked depressed.Sun's complexion is not much better, Sun's consistent behavior style is the four-character motto: Suffering is a blessing!
She has always been kind to those who are willing to come to the house to help, no matter whether it is a long-term or short-term job or what, but anyone who is willing to come to help must remember the kindness of others, and must not lose them.

But now, these people at the door of her natal family, whom she has never lost money and have always been grateful for, come to the door and ask for a price increase. It's not because she feels bad for processing money, but because of this state, the good old Mrs. Sun feels very uncomfortable!

The chaotic and hasty footsteps had come to the yard outside, and the women's voices were faintly heard. Sun looked at Jin Xi and asked, "Xi'er, what do you think about this matter?"

Jin Xi smiled, put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hand and wiped the corners of her mouth, said: "It's okay, I'll take care of it, mothers, you don't need to show up, just go ahead and eat." After finishing speaking, Jin Xi calmly stood up, pulled the stool away and faced Go to the door of the house.

"Sister, they all chased after us and threatened us with extra money, why don't you welcome them out?" Jin Rou bluntly blurted out the unhappiness in her heart.

Jin Xi turned her head and smiled at Jin Rou, and said, "Brother Wen needs to rest."

Sun stood up and said to Jin Xi, "Mother will accompany you."

"No, I'll be back in a while." Jin Xi said, Sun's gone, this matter is not easy to deal with.

"Then I'll go with you!" Chunhua stood up and patted her chest.

Jin Xi laughed even more, "Auntie, next time I go somewhere to swear and fight, I will call you to help!"

Chunhua smiled shyly, and wiped her rough fingers on the apron on her body.

"Xi'er, no matter what decision you make, we agree with you. However, peace is the most important thing in everything, so you should make up your own mind!" Granny Sun seemed to be able to see through Jin Xi's purpose, and urged Jin Xi to nod her head , stay on the line in everything, I really want to see you in the future, she understands.

Jin Xi turned around and left the house, quickly walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and stopped the five or six women at the gate of the courtyard.Mrs. Sun and the others stayed in the main room according to Jinxi's instructions, and heard Jinxi being surrounded by those women asking outside the courtyard.

Then, it was Jinxi who replied calmly, and took the women to the tea garden behind the village to talk about things on the grounds that the house needed to rest after the surgery.

Liang Yuzhong and Sun Yubao heard the commotion outside, and Jin Xi had already led the group of women away.When Chunhua told them about the matter, Liang Yuzhong and Sun Yubao also showed surprise and faint displeasure.

"It's really short-sighted!" Sun Yubao said angrily.

"I don't know how Xi'er plans to deal with this matter?" Liang Yuzhong pondered.

Give me some money, this feeling of being forced is really irritating.Don't add it, these women will quit their jobs one after another, and it seems that after another seven or eight days, they will start picking the first batch of spring tea. The shopkeeper Yan of Rencha Xiangxuan is still waiting, and the manpower here is very useful If you don't come here, you will lose your trust!

"It can't be increased, it can't be increased, our family's salary itself is not low, if it is increased, what will we earn?" Sun Yubao pondered.

"This kind of thing has one thing and two things. Once this opening is opened, they will not care about the relationship with the same village in the future! I will go and tell Xi'er right away, so that she must not be led by the nose by those people Compromised!"

After Sun Yubao finished speaking, without waiting for Granny Sun and the others to respond, she turned around and ran out of the house, chasing after Jin Xi.Unfortunately, he didn't know where Jin Xi took those women to talk, but he couldn't find them after searching around the village. He thought of the tea garden, and hurried to the back of the village.

There is a bamboo forest behind the village, and when turning a corner, I happened to meet Jin Xi who was coming from above.

Seeing Sun Yubao running over panting, his handsome face blushing slightly, Jin Xi was overjoyed, guessing that he must be worried and came after him.Quickly trotted towards Sun Yubao who was below.

"Xi'er, why are you alone? Where are they?" Sun Yubao glanced behind Jinxi and was surprised that there was no one there.

Jin Xi pursed her lips and said with a smile, "After the matter is settled, I will come back naturally. They should still be counting in the tea garden!"

"Is this settled?" Sun Yubao asked, frowning, he was still late, did Jin Xi compromise?

Jin Xi grabs Sun Yubao's blue and dark white cloud pattern sleeves and walks towards the village. There are quiet bamboo forests on both sides. The afternoon sun shines down, covering the bamboo forest with a faint golden light.

"It's very simple, these aunts, aunts and sisters-in-law, together they used the tea tree as a cash cow, and they strung together to ask me for processing money." Jin Xi dragged Sun Yubao down the mountain, and softly told him what happened at that time.

"I just told them and asked them to go out and inquire first. No one in the mountains or outside the mountains can pay as much as our wages! There is no need to add more!"

"That's why they came here prepared, why don't you just add them if you don't want them?" Sun Yubao asked.

"Yeah, they were not convinced, so I simply put off the matter of the tea garden, and I will go to Li Zhengbo and tell Uncle Li when I get down the mountain. We will not rent this tea garden in the future. Whoever likes to take care of it , or return it to each household as before, that's their business!" Jin Xi said lightly.

"What? The stable business of Chaxiangxuan, if you don't want it, you don't want it? After this year, a lot of money will be lost! And shopkeeper Yan, we broke his promise!" Sun Yubao was very puzzled, but Jin Xi's expression is very serious, she doesn't mean to be joking.

"Uncle, in fact, I have planned to let go of the tea garden in Sunjiagou years ago, but I have been thinking about the right reasons. After all, this tea garden can provide a stable income for people like Sunjiagou every year. Now these The wives made a fuss, just found me a chance to let go." Jin Xi said.

"A chance to let go?"

After hearing Jin Xi's plan, Mrs. Sun, Liang Yuzhong, and Mrs. Sun's reaction was almost the same as Sun Yubao's by the bamboo forest.Because they wanted Wending to have a quiet afternoon nap, everyone moved to the kitchen to talk.

"Xi'er, this tea garden has been doing well in the past few years, why did you plan to let go of it years ago?" Sun asked puzzled.

"It's a pity!" Mrs. Sun said, although the income from the tea garden is not much, but no matter how thin the legs of mosquitoes are, they are still meat.

"Grandma, uncle, father, mother, there is only one reason why I let go of this tea garden." Jin Xi said.

"This tea garden is small in scale, the distance is remote and inconvenient, and there are many losses in all aspects. It is like tasteless food, and it is a pity to discard it. We have contracted Liujiatang this year, and the manpower and energy must be transferred to aquaculture. Go, there are still three shops in the county and the town, and the energy can't be used!"

Liang Yuzhong thought for a while, and said in deep thought: "This is true. It's the first time we've contracted to raise fish in a pond. A blind man crosses the river by groping for stones, and he can't take care of this tea garden!"

"Although Uncle can help us take care of the tea garden, he is an elderly man after all, and his legs and feet are not as good as before. When going up and down the mountain, the road is slippery in rainy days, and the big tigers, two tigers and Yuxia are not around. If you fall Sprained, what can I do!" Sun said.

"The most difficult time for us to start, I still remember that in the winter of the year before last, the shopkeeper Yan of Chaxiangxuan personally sent the tea money to the village in advance. If it weren't for the tea money from shopkeeper Yan , It really takes a lot of money to sell it!" Mrs. Sun recalled.

"We never did things to break trust with others!" Mrs. Sun said.

"If it doesn't work, we'll send Chaxiangxuan the money for missing the appointment, and come to the door to apologize!" Liang Yuzhong resolutely said.

"It's not that it's impossible, it's imperative." Jin Xi pondered.

Fish and bear's paw can't have both, in business, you can't rest on your laurels, you have to look far away, plant trees, enjoy the shade, instead of waiting for the end of time with a piece of foundation.Therefore, when it is time to make a choice, when it is time to give up, you must be decisive, because this is to obtain more benefits in the future.

Everyone else had no objection and nodded their heads one after another. This is the only way to go, except for Sun Yubao.

"Cough." Sun Yubao coughed lightly, glanced at Jin Xi, and said to Liang Yuzhong and the others: "Actually, I think the big guy's object of gratitude has been a bit shifted."

"Uncle, what do you say?" Jin Xi was the first to ask.

"Well, in fact, the shopkeeper Yan of Chaxiangxuan negotiated the first deal with us, and it was Wending who asked Uncle Fu to help us match..." Sun Yubao said.

Everyone nodded, yes, this is Wending's affection.

"Treasurer Yan sent the first scheduled tea money. In fact, Shopkeeper Yan was entrusted by someone to make a trip!" Sun Yubao said.

Everyone was astonished, Jin Xi frowned, so the first sum of money came from Wending's pocket?

Liang Yuzhong, Mrs. Sun and the others suddenly realized that, Mrs. Sun stretched out her hand and beat Sun Yubao, and said: "You child, why didn't you tell me about such a big matter, we have been kept in the dark, we don't know how to write That kid Ding has done so much for our family in private..."

Overtly and secretly, what was told, what was not told, he always just did it silently, never asking for credit to show off, lest the world would not know.what a boy!

"No one in Wending told me about this. Once when Erhu went to shopkeeper Yan, shopkeeper Yan accidentally let it go when he was drinking too much. Erhu told me about it. The reason why he didn't tell you guys , just because I was afraid that you would find out and go to thank you!" Sun Yubao said.

"He didn't tell the truth, and he told Shopkeeper Yan not to leak anything, just because he didn't want us to find out and go to thank him. Brother Human Wen is thinking about our dignity. We should be grateful in our hearts. Why bother to disobey Brother Wen? What about good intentions?" Sun Yubao added.

Mrs. Sun and the others don’t speak. The poor also have the self-esteem and decency of the poor. Wending not only gives real help, but also cares about their feelings so much. Even if such a person cannot be a son-in-law, Mrs. Sun and Liang Yuzhong also secretly swear Treat him as a family member and benefactor!

Of course, if he could be a son-in-law, it would be even more perfect.Thinking of this, Mrs. Sun, Liang Yuzhong and Mrs. Sun looked at Jin Xi who was frowning in thought.

To be honest, although Jin Xi had some doubts before, she was still shocked when Sun Yubao told the truth about this matter.

She even wondered, could it be that in the past few years, the tea that their family sent to Chaxiangxuan every season, rain or shine, was paid by Wending in the end?

Until she felt surrounded by several pairs of scorching gazes, Jin Xi suddenly raised her head, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Father, Mother, Granny, why are you looking at me like this? I feel...so panicked!" Jin Xi frowned, under their burning eyes, Jin Xi suddenly felt the hairs on her back twitch Vertically, a feeling of being about to be sold arises spontaneously.

"Girl Xi, that boy Wending is really not bad. Our whole family likes him very much." Mrs. Sun said with a smile.

Jin Xi stroked her forehead with her hands, even Sun Yubao smiled and looked at her with encouraging eyes.

"My God, you guys are so grateful to Brother Wen Ding that you want to push me out to repay your favor?" Jin Xi smiled wryly.

Liang Yuzhong and the others had strange expressions, and Sun gave Jinxi a look, and said, "Stupid girl, are we the kind of people who sell girls for money and kindness? We used to beg for life under your grandma's hands. Not full or warm, and never thought of selling you and Rou'er!"

Jin Xi remained silent, it was the truth, they definitely did not go for Wending's money and kindness.

"We are all going for that man in Wending!" Mrs. Sun glanced at the other side of the main room, and said with a smile to Jinxi: "Such a child is too rare, and his thoughts on you, even if we have eyes, You can see it! Girls, you have to get married sooner or later, especially you who show your face in business, you make money, and it makes people jealous, but your boudoir reputation is also involved, your marriage has always been ours. heart disease."

"Find someone who really loves you. You, your parents, your uncle, and I can rest assured!" Mrs. Sun finally said solemnly. Liang Yuzhong was silent, and Sun Yubao nodded excitedly. Sun's eyes were slightly red.

Jinrou was sitting at the door of the kitchen a few steps away. Hearing this, she lowered her head in a bun, covering the disappointment in her eyes.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Jin Xi suddenly waved her arm, interrupting their eager and burning eyes.

"Let's not talk about it now? I told them about breaking up the team earlier. As expected, our family will not be peaceful tonight! Let's think about it carefully, and when the villagers come to ask at night, what do we do?" Unify the caliber!" Jin Xi jumped aside and said in a clear voice.

Liang Yuzhong chuckled, and said: "That's right, Uncle Li Zheng and Da Gen may know about these women's impromptu upheavals, and they will have to wear off a few layers of lips at night!"

Jin Xi's prediction was very accurate, and Liang Yuzhong's words came true soon.When the red sun sets in the evening and the sky is full of sunsets, the sunjiagou in the valley is full of smoke from every household.

But today, it was a bit abnormal, because many men and women in the village gathered in the yard of Sun Yubao's house.And Lizheng and Sun Dagen who heard the wind were also among them.

Lizheng and Sun Dagen heard what Liang Yuzhong and his wife told about the incident, and they were immediately filled with anger.On the spot, he scolded the women who took the lead in raising wages for being stupid and shallow-sighted.

Some villagers were also hired by Jinxi's family to help manage the tea garden, such as Sun Yunbao's family. They rushed over overnight to show that they were not greedy and wanted to raise their wages.

There were also a few villagers who came here to clamor for an increase in the wages of Jinxi's family, but they didn't expect that the wages were not raised, and they made Jinxi's family plan to give up the lease of the tea garden by accident.These people became anxious immediately, not to mention fetching water from a bamboo basket, and even stealing chickens and losing a lot of rice, what a big loss!

So, the family went to make a plan, and quickly came over with the people in the night, trying to restore it.

Therefore, the villagers who showed up at Sun Yubao's house at night all hoped that Jin Xi's family could continue to lease the tea garden in Sunjiagou and continue to provide them with a job that could earn money.

However, as early as the afternoon when Liang Yuzhong's family was in the kitchen, everyone had made a plan together.Therefore, even in the face of everyone's entreaties, Liang Yuzhong's family made up their minds not to turn back.

After a whole night of tossing like this, everyone saw that Liang Yuzhong's family had become determined after eating the weights, and they also knew that they were at fault in the first place, so they had to leave in frustration.

"Xi'er, if we are so determined, will the hearts of the villagers be chilled?"

Sending off the last villager, Jinxi accompanied Sun to close the yard door and turned around to walk to the main room, Sun grabbed Jinxi and asked in a low voice.

Jin Xi looked up at the crescent moon above her head, smiled and said to Sun: "In life and work, even if we feel that we are innocent, others will see flaws. Just like the moon, if you want to be perfect It's too difficult, why should you care what they think?"

"After all, you are from the door of your mother's family. It's not good to tear your face..." Sun lowered her head and murmured. It was the first time in her life that she refused to be so forceful tonight, and she couldn't bear it.If Jin Xi hadn't been on the sidelines to guard the main formation, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to stand their begging for apology, apology, and good words!

"Then the second uncle and the second mother are still in the same line as the three of us, and they have torn their faces and never get in touch with each other?" Jin Xi said.

"What about the people at the door of my mother's house? It was the people at the door of my mother's house who provoked this insincere incident! We will go as they come, if they steal chickens, they will be greedy, and they will take the blame!" Jin Jin Xi then said sternly, to brainwash Sun, so that she won't turn around and feel sorry for the people of Sunjiagou, then it's over!
"Hey, we're not afraid of anything, anyway, we are from Jinjishan Village. But your mother-in-law, your uncle, and your aunt's roots still belong to this Sunjiagou!" Sun said in a low voice.

"Mom, you don't need to worry about this. There is a saying that no one asks you if you are poor in the downtown area, but you have distant relatives in the mountains when you are rich. Think about it when we went back to Sunjiagou to visit relatives. Really happy, who else will give us a handful of beans?"

"Look at us now, this time when we go to Sunjiagou, the host picks up and the west invites. Dad's dinner can't be arranged, and the third and fourth don't care who's visiting, the pockets are full melon seeds and beans."

"We have not changed, we are still the same as before, but, just because we have built a big house at home, opened a shop, and we have made money in the eyes of others, so the big guys look at us and treat us young and old. The attitude has changed. What are they after us? Isn’t it just money?”

"As long as our money is still there and we are getting richer, these people don't care what they think of us, but when facing us, their attitude will only get better and better! You have to believe me, dealing with human feelings is So simple and crisp!"

Jin Xi made the final decision, her mouth was dry, but she was happy.

Sun stared blankly at Jinxi, recalling the scenes of visiting relatives at her natal home when she was poor. She had to say that although her daughter's words were too realistic and direct, and even a bit harsh and mean, but it was a burst of emotion. Seeing the blood pointed out the key point.

People in the world come here for profit, and everyone rushes for profit.

"Mother, stop worrying about this and that, and live your life with peace of mind. With me here, let them attack me!" Jin Xi interrupted Sun's nagging worries with a wave of her hand, and raised her foot Into the hall.

Jin Xi caressed her forehead, how could this person's scruples never end?After worrying about this, and then worrying about that, when will it be?Living like this is too careless, too unhappy, Jinxi suddenly got some insights from Sun, and from this she thought about the things between herself and Wending, and she, who always pays attention to neatness and straightforwardness, seems to be like Sun Like Shi, got into a dead end...
