The Little Dumb Wife of the Mountain People

Chapter 36 Song Dalang Your House Was Stolen
Wen Bao, who was teased so much that he couldn't help himself, just agreed.

"Hey, be obedient, I'll come tonight."

"You, how are you?"

"Da Lang, Song Da Lang!"

"Hmph, Song Dalang!"

Wen Bao didn't see Song Dalang in the house, but it was getting late at this time, as soon as Wen Bao thought that he was still at his mother's house, he gritted his teeth and wanted to teach Song Dalang a lesson.

Song Dalang was indeed not in Wen Bao's yard at this time, he heard movement outside early in the morning, then got up quietly, and when he got out of the yard, he saw several of Wen Bao's nephews standing in front of the yard.

For a person who loves children very much, Song Dalang immediately invited a few children to play together.

Starting with Wen Zhuoran, the eight-year-old eldest of Wen Chengzhi's family, followed by Wen Zhuoqing, seven-year-old Wen Chengyong's family, Wen Zhuoming, five-year-old Wen Zhuoming, whose parents were not at home, and the mischievous Wen Zhuoxiu, and Wen Zhuoyuan, who was just able to walk and was brought by his brothers.

A row of five children obediently called 'uncle' when they saw Song Dalang, and then asked aunt.

"Uncle, where is aunt?"

Wen Zhuoran is the oldest. As the grandson of Wen's parents, he spoke first. After Wen Zhuoran spoke, Wen Zhuoqing, who had an abacus on his waist, continued, "Uncle, let's find aunt."

Song Dalang looked at the five children in this row, and he really couldn't tell them that Wen Bao was asked by him three times last night, and each time was longer than the last time, and he was still asleep at this time.

Turning his head, Song Dalang said, "Uncle is going to the town to buy food for your aunt today, do you want to come together?"

Except for Wen Zhuoyuan who couldn't understand what Song Dalang was talking about, the eyes of the other four children lit up after Song Dalang spoke.

After successfully attracting the attention of the five children, Song Dalang thought that the money he was carrying should be enough, then hugged the youngest, Wen Zhuoyuan, and led the other four children out.

When Wen Bao woke up, washed up and just left the courtyard, he saw Song Dalang leading five children walking towards her.

"Where have you been this early in the morning?"

In fact, Wen Bao didn't get up late, even earlier than she did in Songjia Village, but both Song Dalang and the children were used to getting up early, so it seemed that Wen Bao got up late.

Wen Bao could see that the children surrounding Song Dalang had a better relationship with Song Dalang. After Wen Bao finished speaking, Wen Zhuoran said, "Auntie, uncle took us to eat spicy soup and pot stickers this morning. Yes, and I bought a lot of them back, including your favorite fresh meat potstickers."

As soon as Wen Zhuoran's words fell, Wen Bao's eyes lit up. He looked up at Song Dalang, and then Wen Bao said, "You do have energy."

Song Dalang understands that Wen Bao is still remembering what happened last night, so he smiles honestly and doesn't speak, and just leads Wen Bao to the dining room.

When Wen Bao went to the dining room, he realized that Song Dalang had not only bought food for her, but everyone in the Wen family was eating today.

Satisfied with a large bowl of spicy soup and three fresh meat pot stickers, Wen Bao was full. Wen Bao, who had eaten enough, hated what happened last night, and was just about to ask Song Dalang to go, before she could say anything After speaking, I saw my second sister-in-law walking over quickly.

"Bao'er, your second elder brother went to see the shop today, and you accompany your second sister-in-law back to the wine shop, let's go and have a look at the wine."

Wen Bao originally wanted to settle accounts with Song Dalang, but before he could speak, he was attracted by Wen Chen's words.

"Good second sister-in-law, I'll go with you."

Hearing that Wen Bao answered her, Wen Chen also had a smile on his face.

Because of this incident, the business of her family's wine store has improved a lot. Although the wine store in the town sells less high-purity wine and more of fruit wine, from Wen Chen's point of view, this is a sneaky way to sell food. Only people don't know how much money the Chen family has earned.

Wen Bao's shares in Chen's Wine Shop are not many, but that's the case, Wen Bao calculated the account, and by the end of the year, she will be able to get a lot of money.

What's more, there was wine that Wu Houye took away, except that some of it would be given to Wu Houye for his travel expenses, and the rest belonged to Wen Bao alone.

Wen Bao and Wen Chen took a group of children out, and Wen Chengzhi took Song Dalang to the county.

Wen Chengzhi brought Song Dalang to the county this time because he intended to let Song Dalang get in touch with the people in the county government.

What happened to Zhou Hu last time made Song Dalang understand that it is not enough for him to have fists, but he needs someone.

Taking advantage of this time, Wen Chengzhi also intentionally let Song Dalang get acquainted with the people in the county government.

After all, even if the county magistrate changes after a year, other people in the county government will not change.

Wen Bao gave Wen Chengzhi 50 taels of silver, and the land Wen Bao wanted to buy couldn't be counted as fertile land, but the land couldn't be counted as mountainous land either.

Originally, the one mu of land cost ten taels of silver, but because Wen Chengzhi came forward, the magistrate of Nanning County forfeited one tael of silver per mu, and Wen Chengzhi paid another four taels of silver to buy six mu of land for Wen Bao.

"Brother, there are leg of lamb."

Song Dalang followed Wen Chengzhi all the way today, seeing Wen Chengzhi familiar with the county government, he was envious, and he naturally understood what this uncle meant.

While he was studying hard, he did not forget what Wen Bao told him.

Hearing Song Dalang's words, Wen Chengzhi smiled and led Song Dalang to send the leg of lamb to the county government office, and handed it to the magistrate's wife's personal maid.

Wen Chengzhi sent lamb legs to the county magistrate's family, and Wen Chengzhi divided up the remaining [-] catties of lamb in the county government in front of Song Dalang.

Of course, Song Dalang was naturally mentioned during the distribution, especially the two yamen servants who were going to measure Wen Bao's new land tomorrow, and Wen Chengzhi shared an extra half a catty each.

Wen Bao and Song Dalang stayed in the town for three days. On the afternoon of the third day, Wen Chengyong took Wen Bao and Song Dalang back to Songjia Village in the donkey cart at home.

Wen Bao and Song Dalang gained a lot from going to the town this time.

Not to mention that the original six acres of land on the land deed actually measured seven acres, even seeing so many wine jars piled up in the backyard of the Chen family wine shop, Wen Bao also knew that his family would be able to share a lot of money this time.

Going home this time, Wen Bao brought back a lot of eggs and a wine jar specially ordered by Wu Houye.

The wine brewed in the back of the house can be turned over one after another. After turning over the altar, it must be filtered with egg white.

But after staying in the town for three days, not to mention Wen Bao, even Song Dalang learned a lot.

On the way back to Songjia Village, passing by the piece of land that Wen Bao’s family just bought, Wen Chengyong pointed to Wen Bao, “Your land is next to Songjia Village’s boundary, towards the direction of the town, my cousin bought ten acres, and the Chen family bought We bought ten acres, and our four elder brothers each bought five acres, so there is not much left."

Hearing what Wen Chengyong said, Wen Bao couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, so almost all of this wasteland of tens of acres has been bought?
Wen Chengyong knew what Wen Bao was thinking just by looking at Wen Bao's expression. This piece of land was not enough to build a village. It was originally an official land, and no one could buy it in the county government.

People who live in the town would not think about buying this piece of land that is more than an hour away from the town.

"It's too late this year. In the spring of the coming year, I asked my cousin to find someone from the county to build a house. The house in the town will be kept. I heard from my father that he wants to live here for the elderly."

Of course, Wen Chengyong also knew that his father still planned to accumulate more family property.

Their Wen family is indeed a wealthy family in the town, but there are many descendants in the family. When the family is separated in the future, the Wen family's family business will appear small.

Wen Bao pursed his lips and remained silent after hearing what his second brother said, she understood all these things.

The Wen family now has five grandchildren, not to mention that there may be more in the future, so it is indeed necessary to accumulate more family property.

Sitting on the donkey cart, Wen Bao could vaguely see his own cave through the forest, and just as he opened his mouth to speak, he saw a man rushing down from the mountain.

The man seemed to be about the same age as Song Dalang, and as soon as he rushed down, his eyes lit up when he saw Song Dalang on the donkey cart.

"Da Lang, hurry home, your house has been stolen!"
