Chapter 122 The abandoned concubine in the male protagonist's story 20
Congratulations to the Chinese table tennis team for winning the gold medal in mixed doubles! Congratulations to Sasha and Datou!
The next day, before he got up, Zhang Fa's wife called out softly from outside.
"I'm awake. What's up?"
"Xiao Jing, the village chief has brought everyone here to pay the rent."
"So early?" He Xiaojing was helpless. She forgot to set a time for him yesterday.
I went to the front yard after breakfast, and wow, there were a lot of people there.
Everyone knew that she was Master Peng's concubine, but it was still a bit unexpected to see such a beautiful woman with a big belly.
The village chief came over and said, "Auntie, can we start?"
"Sure, but I need to hire a few people to work for me. Village chief, you check the quality of the grain, find a few people to help weigh it, and deliver it to the granary."
"You don't have to pay. Just do your own work and then send it to the granary after inspection."
He Xiaojing did not refuse. She sat aside and Zhang Fa's wife even prepared a cushion for her.
The old scholar in the village was called over to write an agreement and settle the accounts.
When I got tired of sitting, I stood up and walked around to check the quality of the grain. To be honest, it was really good. I seemed to have read a report before that said that the grain that rural people paid for public grain was clean and full of grains.
Today I saw that it is true. With the current low productivity, it is already very good to be able to get such quality food as rent.
I asked everyone to go back for lunch at noon and come back after a break. Seeing the reluctance on their faces, I did not compromise.
The boss is not here, so there is no way to collect the rent. He just doesn't care about anything. He has to show it to the boss, so those who didn't line up to pay the rent in the morning are very depressed, and they are also afraid that the boss will suddenly go back on his word.
He was already awake when Zhang Fa's wife came to call him, and the same process and operations continued throughout the afternoon.
When the deadline came, I saw that half of the homework was still not submitted, so I decided to stop and start again tomorrow.
"Don't worry, everybody. Tomorrow will be the same as today. Nothing will change."
No one would feel at ease if the agreement was not signed, but the landlords were not happy. It was useless for them to be anxious.
Two days later, all the rent was paid and all the agreements in the village were signed.
"Madam, are you going to prepare to send food to General Zhang? What is the plan this year?"
"Don't you all pay your taxes?"
"We will give it to you. In the future, the master will give General Zhang 20,000 kilograms of food."
"I have to give them the small amount of food I have collected this year? Is this a rule or is it a favor from your master?"
"We can't really tell. I guess it's the latter."
"Okay, village chief, have you met General Zhang?"
"I've seen it."
"Okay, take me to see General Zhang tomorrow. You don't have to show up, just tell me where he is."
The village chief is so rude. I just thought he was going to harm me, but I didn't expect he just wanted me to lead the way.
"Okay, Auntie, can you go by yourself? Didn't the master leave anyone behind?"
"It's not easy to stay and let me get rid of you. If you want to live your own life, go ahead."
The village chief and the old scholar were both upset. What did this woman mean? She was saying that the man was really kind and not only reduced the rent for them, but also released the servants.
"Auntie, it's not safe for you to go alone."
"It's okay. He is a great general and will not embarrass an abandoned concubine like me."
Now the two of them were even more upset. Shouldn't being abandoned be kept secret? Why did they say it out loud?
In today's world, what good can a woman who is abandoned by a man have?
"What's wrong? Is it unbelievable that I was abandoned? Don't let your imagination run wild. I have someone to rely on if I, a woman, dare to live on my own. Okay, send me to General Zhang tomorrow."
The two of them were walking back. "Old Chen, what are you talking about?"
"It has nothing to do with us. We rented the land from someone else. We just need to pay the rent to them in a proper manner. If they need our help, we can help them. The rest is not for us to know and has nothing to do with us."
"Yes, you are right. This woman is quite extraordinary."
"Yes, I think what she said about the master abandoning her is not true. The master has been childless for so many years, and she is pregnant. How could Master Peng not want his own child?
Maybe they were afraid that the road was unsafe, so they left her behind."
"I think so."
The next day, after arriving in the city, He Xiaojing did not go home, but asked the village chief to point out General Zhang's mansion to her.
I have no intention of following Peng Yinghuai's path. I will tell him today that the maximum is 5,000 kilograms, no more.
To be honest, I don't want to give any of them. But it would be bad for my body if I don't give them now.
Originally, this land would not be used for long and it was not certain who would own it. If General Zhang was good, then we would have a pleasant cooperation. If he was not good, he would be left penniless.
"Village Chief, please go back."
"Auntie, I'll wait for you."
"That's fine, go wait aside and don't come near."
The village chief felt very upset. Was he trying to keep himself away from danger? Probably.
I feel bad about leaving a woman behind.
He Xiaojing waited outside for a long time before someone took her in. To be honest, General Zhang's mansion was quite luxurious, and it was all funded by the people's hard-earned money.
I was taken into the study, and I saw that he was quite pretentious. I don't know if he has real talent or is just trying to show off.
"Are you Ying Huai's wife?"
He Xiaojing was stunned for a moment when she looked at the young man, thinking he was an elderly General Zhang.
"Either the lady or the concubine."
"Haha, please take a seat, Madam. I wonder what you want from me? Before Ying Huai left, he did ask me to take care of you. I've been busy lately and haven't had time to do so."
"Thank you for your concern, General. I am fine now. I came here today to discuss the food issue in the country farm."
"Oh? What does Auntie mean?"
"I heard that our master gives the general 20,000 kilograms of grain every year. This farm is mine now. I don't have the master's ability, so I came here to discuss with the general about how much grain to give."
Zhang Fengying laughed, "What are the rules for concubines?"
"I will reduce the rent for the tenants to only 20%. This year, I will harvest more than 20,000 kilograms of grain, which is my living expenses. I have children to raise in the future. Please be kind, General. I will donate 5,000 kilograms to General Zhang every year."
Zhang Fengying could tell that she was not here to discuss something but to tell her her decision. She was an interesting woman.
He knew about Peng Yinghuai's situation, and he let him go to balance things out. Besides, he was quite interested in his treasure. Although he didn't know where he hid it, he would eventually find it if he wasn't there.
This woman came here today, but I don’t know if she knew about it.
