What a sin! The most handsome lazy man in the village married a crazy woman.

Chapter 10 Focus on Planting and Become a Small Landowner

The Ye family is an outsider household in Wenggang Village. They are the only family with the surname Ye in the village. Thirty years ago, the Yuan Dynasty had not yet been established and wars were constant. Seven-year-old Ye Peng begged his way into Wenggang Village and grew up eating at many homes. When he was young, he was a gangster, doing everything from collecting protection fees to robbing people on the road. Some gangsters in the town would respectfully call him Brother Peng.

Once, bandits attacked Wenggang Village at night, killing villagers and stealing food and women. In order to rescue Jiang Lingyue who was bullied by the bandits, the eighteen-year-old Ye Peng killed two bandits, led the young people in the village to fight the bandits bravely, negotiated with the bandit leader, and persuaded the bandits to let Wenggang Village go. Everyone then realized how brave Ye Peng was.

After that, Ye Peng acted as a hero in Wenggang Village for a long time and married Jiang Lingyue. After getting married, Ye Peng restrained his temper and stopped fooling around. He settled down in Wenggang Village and started the business of slaughtering pigs and selling meat.

As time went by, almost everyone had forgotten what kind of person Ye Peng was before.

Xiao Yi was still young, and had not witnessed with his own eyes how powerful Ye Peng was in the past. He only heard about Ye Peng from his parents and the people in the village, so he did not take Ye Peng seriously. Today, because of Ye Tang's divorce, Ye Peng awakened the ruthlessness that had been suppressed for more than ten years.

Only then did Xiao Yi realize what a terrible person he had provoked.

Ye Peng reached out and patted Xiao Yi on the face: "Boy, you are quite capable to plot against my Ye family!"

His daughter said that it was Xiao Yi who came up with the idea of ​​letting Xiao Zhong marry her, and it was also Xiao Yi who came up with the idea of ​​letting Zhang and Xiao's father pretend to be sick. Xiao Yi is the most scheming person in the Xiao family. He looks gentle and polite on the surface, but he is actually very evil at heart.

Xiao Yi could hardly keep calm: "No, I..."

"I won't listen to your excuses. Hurry up and slap yourself twenty times, otherwise I have plenty of ways to break your legs and make sure you can't find evidence to sue me." While Ye Peng was speaking, his eyes were always on Xiao Yi's legs.

Xiao Yi suddenly felt his legs getting cold.

"Pah!" Xiao Yi slapped himself: "I will never plot against Ye Tang again, I was wrong!"

He slapped himself in the face again and again.

Zhang and Xiao Erzhu felt extremely distressed when they saw this.

"Ye Peng, I'm going to fight you!" Zhang shouted and rushed over.

Ye Peng kicked the man out and said, "Don't think I don't hit women. If you dare to mess with me again, I will kill your whole family. My life in exchange for four lives of your family is worth it!"

The madness and ferocity on his face were exactly the same as Ye Tang's yesterday.

Zhang fell to the ground with a look of pain on her face, not daring to scream anymore.

Xiao Erzhu and Xiao Zhong also calmed down.

Ye Peng gave him a look, and Xiao Yi fought harder, shouting non-stop.

"I shouldn't have schemed against anyone. I was wrong!"

"I don't dare anymore!"

After the twenty slaps, Ye Peng and Ye Ping'an drove away in the full ox cart.

Xiao Yi fell to the ground with red and swollen cheeks.

Fortunately, there was no one else here. Although he was insulted, at least he did not embarrass himself outside.

"Xiaoyi." A voice suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard.

Xiao Yi's family of four looked up and found that there were many people at the gate of the courtyard. Old Man Xiao, Old Mrs. Zhou, Aunt Wang and others were all there. They looked at Xiao Yi with great disappointment.

Old Man Xiao said sadly: "Grandpa never thought that you would be such a person. You are so calculating at such a young age. It's a pity that you are still a student and have read the books of sages for so many years."

Aunt Wang said with a spit: "You can't judge a person's heart by his appearance. Your family really opened my eyes."

Xiao Yi suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

It's over. He has lost all his dignity.

Ye Tang prepared breakfast. Her father and brother had not come back yet, so she took a hoe and went to hoe the fields.

Her yard is very spacious, and there is a vegetable patch next to the toilet. She dug out the land and built a fence around it. Before she got married, she would grow a lot of vegetables here, but now there is nothing in the field except weeds and wild flowers.

Her father and brother only know how to kill pigs and sell meat, but they don’t know how to grow vegetables.

While weeding, Ye Tang secretly decided that when his father and brother came back, he would go to the village chief to buy a paddy field to grow rice.

Her father didn't know how to farm, and he didn't have any spare money to buy land. He didn't want her and her brother to suffer the hardships of farming, so he had settled in Wenggang Village for many years and had never bought any land. They only had this small vegetable plot that she had dug out, and all the rice and flour they ate were bought.

Now that she knows how to grow rice and can buy high-yield hybrid rice seeds, she wants to buy a field and grow rice herself.

The rice yield per mu here is very low, about 300 kilograms when the harvest is good, and about 150 kilograms when the harvest is bad. After deducting taxes, most families do not have much food left. They will exchange rice for coarse grains and store them to eat slowly. There are two meals a day, and each meal has a fixed amount, so most of the time they are not full.

Paddy fields are expensive, and she doesn't have much money, so she can't spend it carelessly. She first buys a piece of land to plant crops, and then finds a way to open up the land and plant more things.

The Yuan Dynasty was the first unified dynasty. Before its establishment, it was divided into eight small countries. It was Emperor Wu of Yuan who personally led the expeditions, conquered the remaining seven countries, completed the unification of the eight countries, opened up thousands of miles of land, and created the current stability.

Due to the sharp decline in population and scarcity of food caused by past wars, Emperor Wu of Yuan Dynasty, in addition to formulating the marriage law, also encouraged the people to reclaim wasteland, and no taxes were required on wasteland for the first three years.

However, it is difficult to grow crops on wasteland, and it is extremely difficult to reclaim wasteland. Most farmers do not have the extra time to reclaim wasteland, and would rather pay taxes and become tenants than reclaim wasteland.

Ye Tang was willing to reclaim wasteland, and was even more grateful that he was still a strong man in this life and had plenty of strength to farm.

She wants to concentrate on farming and become a small landlord.

"Atang, I'm back!" Ye Peng shouted as he arrived at the door of his house before getting off the ox cart.

Ye Tang put down his hoe and ran out, only to see his father and brother moving things off the ox cart one by one.

"Dad, brother, you've worked hard." Ye Tang went up to help.

Ye Peng took all the rice and flour to the kitchen: "It's not that hard to help my daughter get her dowry back."

He saw Ye Tang had hoed half of the vegetable field.

"You are planning to grow vegetables again. Once you come back, this piece of land will come alive again." Ye Peng said with a laugh.

After the three of them moved all their things into the house, they washed their hands and sat down at the dining table.

"Sister, you actually made meat buns, they are so delicious!"

Ye Ping'an excitedly took a big meat bun and took a bite, and the broth filled his mouth.

"It's delicious, so delicious! Sister, let's go sell meat buns. We can't let your good cooking skills go to waste. I believe our buns will be a big hit and we will definitely make more money than selling pork." Ye Ping'an finished a bun in just two or three bites.

Ye Peng threw his head at him: "How dare you despise my pork? Don't forget that you and your sister grew up relying on my pork."

Ye Pingan took another bun with grievance: "But, selling meat really doesn't make as much money as selling buns!"

Ye Peng laughed angrily: "Besides your sister, who else in our family can make buns? Do you want to tire your sister out?"

Ye Pingan: "...I can learn."

Ye Peng said with disgust: "The buns you make can either crush you to death or poison you to death."

Ye Pingan: "......"

Ye Tang glanced at his brother and said, "If you want to learn other business, that's not impossible."

She inherited her father's strength and can do a lot of heavy work, but her brother is a little bit inferior to her in terms of strength, but he is very smart, especially in doing business.

Although she had some money, it was not enough. It was not easy to make money from farming, and it was faster to make money from business.

Ye Ping'an's eyes lit up: "Sister, do you support me?"
