The boss is dressed as cannon fodder

Spring ploughing is so exhausting, but fortunately it is almost over.

Several farmers ate the food sent by their families and gathered together to chat. After a tiring morning, they exchanged dishes and chatted about gossip during the meal as a break.

“Isn’t that Shunniang on the hillside?”

Everyone looked up. There were continuous mountains at the end of the village. The one closest to the village was a barren hill that belonged to the Jiang family and was now divided among the Jiang family’s eldest sons.

"Shun Niang is so pitiful. She is reclaiming wasteland by herself, and there is not even a capable man in her family."

"Alas, the mountain is so barren that it is not worth planting peanuts and soybeans." A villager sighed, "How can we support our family?"

"If it were me, I would never split up the family."

"Look at the second branch of the Jiang family. As soon as the family split up, they immediately asked people to help farm! Tsk, Old Chen didn't even think about helping her eldest son."

"You know she is partial! She is too cruel. How can she really not want her son just because he is disabled?"

"Jiang Dalang is also a fool. He is foolishly filial. Not only did he leave the house with nothing, but he also promised to give so much money for support. Just look at it, it is her own wife who is exhausted."

"Old Chen is the most hateful. When Jiang Dalang said he wanted to give her money for support, she really didn't refuse. No wonder Jiang Dalang was so angry that he wanted to sever his kinship with the second branch."

Several villagers talked about it, and others came over to chat. Fortunately, the Jiang family had so many things to talk about during the busy and tiring spring plowing season, which was really relaxing.

"Look, there's a carriage coming."

"Let's find the village head." In the village, people who have ox carts are considered rich, not to mention carriages.

"Excuse me, how do I get to Jiang He Jiang Da'o's house?"

***

"Shun Niang, there are guests at your house, no, someone has sent money to your house."

The whole village was in an uproar. Shopkeeper Li from the city sent a wheelchair to the lame Jiang Da'o with great fanfare, and also sent money to their family. In addition to the money, there were also a lot of meat, food, cloth and other things they could use.

Shopkeeper Li was smiling. After making the first wheelchair according to the drawings, the carpenter in his shop quickly made the second one and sent it to the Zhang family. The second son Zhang was very happy and rewarded him with 100 taels of silver. It hasn't even been sold yet, and the capital has been returned.

Shopkeeper Li's brain is quick. He can sell this wheelchair and child stroller to the capital, which will be a hundred or a thousand times the profit, so he is very happy to come to the door to act as a drama queen.

"Have you heard? Jiang He originally wanted to make a wheelchair for himself because he was lame, but Manager Li discovered the benefits of wheelchairs and made one for Master Zhang. Master Zhang rewarded him with 100 taels of silver. Manager Li was not greedy and gave him half of it." Manager Li was really embarrassed. After all, Jiang He would have nothing to do with the profits from wheelchairs and baby carriages in the future.

"Isn't this greedy? Young Master Zhang gave Jiang He a hundred taels of silver as a reward, but he gave Jiang He half of it. You know, this wheelchair was Jiang He's idea."

"Didn't he also give a lot of things? These things are worth more than ten taels of silver. Tsk, now Jiang Dao doesn't have to be a cripple anymore. With this money, we can invite the old imperial physician to come and see him."

"That's right. I really want to see the faces of Jiang Er'o's family. They drove him out as a waste, and Jiang Dao made a lot of money."

"Jiang Dao made money only temporarily. He just happened to be lucky. Besides, he didn't have much left after using this money to treat his leg."

"I heard from the doctor in the city that even if Jiang Dao's leg is healed in the future, he won't be able to do heavy work."

Old Chen was really angry. She didn't want to admit that Jiang He came up with the idea of ​​a wheelchair after the family was divided. She felt that Jiang He was unfilial and against her!

He got such a large sum of money right after the family was divided. He must have insisted on dividing the family in order to take all the money for himself.

Dozens of taels of silver! Her heart ached as if it was dug out. This much money was enough for Eroduo to attend several poetry gatherings to promote his talent, buy some high-quality paper and pens, and even buy Eroduo some good clothes. The Jiang family was poor, Ero's clothes were not good, and the teachers in the academy were snobbish. They only respected silk clothes and not people, and they would definitely not teach a farmer's son wholeheartedly.

Old Chen was sure that Jiang He was against her because Jiang He actually asked someone to help him open up the wasteland.

My God, twenty-six coins a day, and bought fat pork for entertainment. Now the villagers are not in a hurry to plant their own fields. If it weren't for Jiang He, they only needed a few people, and they could all run to open up the wasteland for Jiang He.

That mountain is very barren. Even if it is full of peanuts and soybeans, how much money can it make? Isn't this showing off that the Jiang family's eldest house is shaking again? And it's just such a small mountain, Shunniang can plant it all by herself. He asked people to go against her!

At noon today, she heard the people she had invited to help with farming muttering, "We are still a family, how can Jiang Da O be so generous, and the second room is too stingy..." Not only did they pay twenty-five cents a day, but the meat was tasteless and the bowls were specially changed to small bowls, for fear that they would eat too much.

Old Chen was like a firecracker that was about to explode at any time. Before, in order to show that the Jiang family was a scholar, she had someone write a deed and asked several workers to sign it, otherwise she suspected that these people would definitely go to work for Jiang He. Several temporary workers were also unhappy. They looked at each other and decided not to come again during the autumn harvest. Not only that, they also wanted to publicize Old Chen's extreme behavior among temporary workers. Temporary workers also have circles. When they see it, who will come to farm for Old Chen!

The villagers also murmured in their hearts that Jiang He was going against his mother by hiring temporary workers. It was not hard to grow peanuts and soybeans in the mountains. Shun Niang could do it alone... No one knew that Jiang He was just worried about his wife.

Since Shunniang wants to plant more land, then satisfy her. He is such a good husband.

***

Little Chen has been feeling very distressed recently. "Mom, my uncle has made so much money all of a sudden. He should be filial to you. Do you think he should go to his house to ask for some..."

"Shut up!" Old Chen glared at her fiercely. Of course she wanted to go to his house to ask for it. What reason could she have? She had not forgotten Jiang He's resolute face when the family was divided.

Little Chen muttered but dared not say a word. She now found out the disadvantages of the family division. Before the family division, she could push all the work to Shunniang. If she had known that she would have to do so much work, she would have made a fuss not to let the family division take place. At this time, she envied her husband very much. He said that he wanted to go back to the academy to read books and didn't have to work in the fields. His mother-in-law was worried that he would use up his brain by studying, so she gave him a lot of money to buy meat in the academy.

"Mom, I want to eat meat!" Da Wa ran over and shouted. Today, my uncle's family was eating braised pork. He could smell the smell at the foot of the mountain. Then he went to knock on the door, but the uncle didn't open the door. He said that he had bullied the eldest and second daughters in the past and didn't give him food! The uncle was too much. He was a man and could carry on the family line. How could he be given food by a money-loser and not by him?

"Eat, eat, eat, eat shit!" Xiao Chen looked unhappy. After the eldest wife was divided, no one worked, and the mother-in-law became more stingy. The food at home was getting worse and worse. The whole family was worried about the husband's studies. The two little ones were still ignorant and kept clamoring for meat and eggs.

Why was she so stupid before? She thought that after the division of the family, she could eat more meat because the eldest wife didn't take advantage. As a result, she forgot that she had deducted the meat from the eldest wife before and actually didn't get much. Now the mother-in-law has to save the money for buying meat to hire someone to do farm work. All the work at home is on her, and she has even less chance to eat meat... If she had known this, she might as well not divide the family.

The eldest child cried loudly, "Mom, you have changed. You have changed from my biological mother to my stepmother." The eldest child cried very sadly. The eldest uncle had changed, and so had the mother.

Exhausted by too much work, Xiao Chen was angry and picked up a fire stick to beat him. The eldest daughter of the eldest room was about the same age as the eldest child, and she rushed to do all the work. As for the eldest child, he was good at making trouble by climbing trees and going to rivers, but he just didn't work!

Xiao Chen had selectively forgotten that she always chased the two girls of the eldest room to work, and repeatedly told her son to be lazy if he could, and to push it all to the two money-losing goods, otherwise he would suffer.

***

If Shunniang knew that her husband hired someone to open up wasteland at a high price, she would never think of planting a few more acres of land.

Peanuts and soybeans are not worth much, and it is not cost-effective to hire someone!

Shunniang was panicked. It seemed that her husband was not the material for living... He was clearly splitting every penny before the separation, so why was he so loose now?

After working for a few days and clearing a few acres of wasteland, the villagers were firmly dismissed by Shunniang. She could do the subsequent sowing alone without help.

Sowing, fertilizing and watering were indeed not that hard, so Jianghe had to agree.

She couldn't disagree, either, Shunniang was almost crying.

Alas, she was nervous just spending such a small amount of money, and she would faint if she spent a lot of flowers in the future? !

Jianghe decided to spend more money in the future so that his wife could exercise her heart more.
