Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 87

Although everyone was chatting there, Dalin just kept silent until no one spoke, and then he said: "If you don't go to work, how much food will be wasted, how can you just watch the millet turn into sprouts?" Woolen cloth?"

This Dalin!Cherishing things is not such a pity.

Xiao He was also a little angry this time, her big witty eyes flashed, "Brother, although he said that he is unkind and we can't be unrighteous, it's just that he can't figure it out. Should it be deducted? Isn’t this harming the co-worker, so if you want to teach him such a little lesson, how can this God blame him!”

Unexpectedly, Du Dalin still frowned, "If you don't work, eat..."

Jiang Shi also laughed at this time, "Xiaohe is right, Dalin, you don't have to worry, anyway, your family's fields are going to be planted with late rice, and you will be busy at that time. You see, the family is doing well now. When the rice at home is dry, Gu Yu’s family will lend you two bags. If there is not enough, you can go to our house to borrow it first. It will be possible to pay back the late rice, and it will be successful next year. Your yard looks quite big, then go to my house Get some vegetable seedlings in the vegetable field, just like planting a few plots in Gu Yu's side. There is no shortage of vegetables and rice, and life will be passable. If you have good work, you can go out to do part-time jobs. Your sister and your mother are at home doing embroidery on the soles of shoes. Yes, there is spare money to use..."

Having said this, it made everyone a little more relaxed. Think about it, this is the truth of life.Xiao He looked at Jiang Shi, and smiled straight: "Aunt Jiang, you have arranged our family's livelihood, but you don't have anything to think about."

Jiang saw that although Xiao He was in rags, she was still clean, her big eyes were blinking, she was very clever, but now that she was wearing Gu Yu's clothes, looking at these two girls who were about the same age, the more she looked at them, the more she looked at them. It was joy, like a pair of twins. She thought about it and smiled again: "Who said there is nothing to think about? After a few years, life will be easier, and I will marry your brother a good wife, and find you another one." Good family!"

Xiao He ran to the side with a smile, but Du Dalin's face was reddened to the base of his neck, fortunately he couldn't see clearly in the night.

Early the next morning, Housekeeper Chen from the landowner’s house went to Aunt Wen’s house to ask Du Dalin to go to work. Dalin was about to go out in the house. Also chiming in, Dalin picked his fingers, but still didn't move his feet.

Steward Chen was a little impatient, and was very upset when he saw Du Dalin not going, "What did you say when you went, it's not because our master is kind, thinking that you, an orphan and widow, have no one to rely on, that's why we left you Those who work at home, how would you know that you will not go at this time."

Aunt Wen was about to say something, but Xiao He stopped her hand, and Xiao He said to the housekeeper with a smile: "Housekeeper Chen, it's not that my brother won't go, it's just that you have to deduct wages for doing such heavy work. It’s only ten pennies a day. Not many people are willing to do it. You also know that if the crops lie down in the field soaking in water, you don’t need to worry about cutting the crops. , It’s fine if you don’t raise wages like this, but it’s justified to reduce wages, eight cents a day is not enough to eat, tell your master, my brother will consider whether to go or not if fifteen cents a day.”

Hearing this, Steward Chen became furious, spit out a mouthful of phlegm on the ground in front of Xiao He, and made a small mud pit, but Xiao He pretended not to see it, and said to the housekeeper, "What's wrong with you girl?" It’s so unreasonable, you don’t know that these people can harvest an acre of land a day, but now it’s good, only a small half can be recovered. In this way, how much labor it costs to recover our rice, it’s cheaper for you, That’s all, I’m too lazy to tell you, it’s just that if you ask us for anything in the future, don’t ask us then!”

Xiao He rolled her eyes and pointed at the housekeeper: "Look at you, why are you vomiting here at my house? After two days, you are begging us, and I won't let my brother go! Hmph!"

Butler Chen didn't speak any more, and left bitterly.

Aunt Wen was a little worried now, "Xiao He, you were not like this before, why did you become like this, so if Dalin has to go to work in the future, I don't know what kind of trouble you will suffer."

Xiao He took Aunt Wen's hand, a little aggrieved, "Mother, didn't you say that we are poor, but we have to be tougher, as you heard just now, we orphans and widows, otherwise people would think we are poor. It’s so bullying, you see, he has to deduct money when the work is too heavy, and it’s a bully. Besides, we are like Aunt Jiang said, those who have land and land are afraid of what he will do. Such idleness!"

Aunt Wen felt sore, and hugged Da Lin and Xiao He in her arms.

Since there was nothing to do at home, Aunt Wen's family still went to Gu Yu to help.

Gu Yu was thinking that this flail might not be sold for long, and that thresher was something that no one could make, at least with some technical content. Besides, Li Dequan's craftsmanship was good, and most of the things made by this country carpenter were clumsy and practical. She couldn't do it for a while, so Gu Yu still made up her mind on this, thinking that even if someone imitated it, it wouldn't matter, and then it would be fine to improve it by herself. If someone is superior, I will be cheap, and if someone is cheap, I will switch. Thinking about it, it seems like a business, so I laughed.

Li Dequan didn't want Aunt Wen and Xiaohe to help, saying that he would let them rest for a while, and they would go to work in his own field in two days. Chen Yongyu would naturally help plow the fields, but the ridges had to be repaired or something. If there are seedlings, they must be prepared first.However, Du Dalin was very diligent and busy. Li Dequan said that although this Dalin looked a little stupid, he was beautiful and neat in doing his work. Those things were easy to understand, and Li Dequan saved a lot of money. In my heart, if I can do it for a long time, I might as well ask Dalin to come and help, but now I can't protect myself, so he can only keep the words for now.

After another two days, the Butler Chen walked up to Gu Yu's house with a smile on his face.

This time, his previous arrogance disappeared, and he flattered him with a bitter face, "Brother Dalin, why don't you go to work tomorrow? No, no, go today, and it will count as your day's wages."

Gu Yu couldn't bear the housekeeper's arrogance, so he snorted, "What's wrong? Wages won't be deducted?"

Steward Chen smiled flatteringly, "Gu Yu see what you said, Dalin is a member of his own village, how can he treat him badly, it counts as fifteen yuan a day, fifteen yuan a day." The housekeeper said, but he felt bitter. The crops soaked in the water all sprouted, and even the young master went to the field with everyone to tie up the fallen crops to prevent them from getting water, but it would not last for a day or two. Yes, another strong wind will ruin it, and besides, it was he himself who watched them work slowly and deducted wages on his own initiative. If the master knew about it, he would not have skinned himself, so he hurried over to make up for it.

Xiao He was listening, but said: "Didn't you say that we shouldn't go to the door to ask for it?"

Butler Chen had no idea when he met these two clever little girls, so he could only beg the lord, "Brother Dequan, lord Lizheng, you are all good people, we are a farmer, we can't just sit and watch the crops fall in the field." Grow into seedlings."

Gu Yu seemed to see the green seedlings growing from the rice soaked in the water, and he was happy: "Oh, that's not good, it saves even the transplanting of rice seedlings, didn't you always plan it, or if you cut the seedlings, you will die when you go back." Stir-fried with oil and salt, you can eat it."

After she finished speaking, she was happy, but Li Dequan stopped her, and she stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Chen Yongyu said: "Boss, you have so many fields in your family, and you don't hire many long-term workers on weekdays. It's too urgent and you can't figure it out. You dare to deduct wages. I'm afraid that even if you call people back now, you can do it so quickly." Take it back?"

Steward Chen felt like crying, "Who says it's not, we just want to quickly mow up the downed ones, and twenty or so laborers can't do that much. It's better to cut back a little bit than to rot in the field. "

Hearing what he said, Gu Yu suddenly came up with an idea——by contracting those rice fields, her family can earn wages!It's just that she looked at the logs scattered on the ground for making flails, and she felt that it was not worthwhile to contract those threshing fields, not to mention the hard work, and it would not make much money, so she had to give up.

Chen Yongyu was there to do the calculations again, "I'm counting all the money. You mowed and hugged the ground in one day, and it would be troublesome to pull it back. You have to thresh, so I don't know how much labor will be wasted!" When people come to invite them, they still give them a step, so that they can do their jobs in the future. They can't hold back their face, so they simply ask themselves, "Dalin, why don't you see if you can get [-] cents?"

Seeing that Lizheng had also spoken, Chen Butler looked at Dalin again.

Dalin turned to look at Aunt Wen and Xiaohe, and was about to talk.

Gu Yu hurriedly said: "No way!"

Li Dequan saw that Gu Yu was unreasonable today, so he said something to her again.

Gu Yu smiled and said, "Chen Steward, how about we discuss a deal?"

But Butler Chen was a little impatient, "Auntie, I still have to call for someone. I'll talk about the business later."

"Don't be so anxious. I think our rice is finished. Otherwise, I will rent out my thresher to you, which can at least save you half of the labor and won't let the rice germinate. You have also seen it. We just put the threshing machine in the field and carried it back directly to the rice, and I made this plan for you because of Uncle Chen, see if it works."

Butler Chen's eyes lighted up at this moment. Saving labor is equivalent to saving wages, and besides, it can be recovered before it sprouts, so he has to respond.

But Gu Yu did the math, "Forget it, let's count you one hundred yuan a day, and it's worth six laborers."

"One day? One hundred coins!"

Seeing him surprised, Gu Yu said, "If you don't want to, forget it."

The one hundred Wen is too expensive, Steward Chen can't be the master, but he doesn't want to give up, so he went back to discuss with the landowner, and Jing Zhe was studying at their home, Chen Yongyu also said a few words, and set it at six Ten texts.

Gu Yu is also very satisfied, this is equivalent to a costless business, and it would be good for me to rent it out in the future, because others can't do it, and I don't have to earn the hard-earned money, but she changed her mind again, "Chen Steward, I am Let me tell you, this thresher is our treasure, if you break it, will you pay for it?"

Butler Chen just wanted to move in quickly, but when he saw Gu Yu was hesitant, Gu Yu smiled and said, "It's not so easy to break, I'll rent it to you with one condition, let my brother Da Lin guide you, when the time comes he will Teach you how to use it, don't assign him too much work, he just manages this thresher, I can't trust others!"
