Traversing, catch a general and go home to farm

It's sooner rather than later.Just got the title deed of Qingyun Mountain, and the heated discussion in the village has not subsided yet, Wu Ziyu began to hire people to open up wasteland again.This is not a small project. With such a big mountain, it is impossible to complete it all at once, and you can’t become fat with one bite. Therefore, this matter still needs to be done little by little.

Therefore, Wu Ziyu also just hired twenty strong men in the village, promised each of them seventy yuan a day, and asked them to open up a field of about ten mu at the foot of the mountain near the spring, which he wanted to use to plant.I'll talk about the rest later.

Those strong men were found by the village head himself. They were all honest dealers. Seeing that Wu Ziyu paid a high price, they all worked hard and never deliberately delayed the progress or cheated wages.

Everything seems to be going very smoothly, however, there are always one or two hilarious episodes that disturb this peaceful lake.

On this day, Wu Ziyu made lunch at home for everyone who was building a new house.The house project has entered the final stage, and it will be completely completed in about seven or eight days.Wu Ziyu was very happy, the house fully met his requirements, how could he be unhappy.He was so absorbed in his own thoughts that he didn't notice anyone coming in the yard.

Qian Ning just took care of her housework and came to help Wu Ziyu as usual.Because Wang Fulang was not feeling well, Wu Ziyu asked him to rest well and not to help, fearing that the two of them would be too busy, when Qian Ning passed by Lin Lan's house, he saw that Lin Lan had nothing to do, so he pulled him to help.

As soon as the two of them entered the room, they saw a thin and frail child about twelve or thirteen years old standing in the yard, his eyes turned between the wing room and the kitchen, and he opened and closed his hands, as if there was something in his heart that made him tangled up. sharp.

Qian Ning and Lin Lan looked at each other. Just as they were about to ask who was coming, they saw another person sneaking out of the wing room. When they saw Qian Ning and Lin Lan, they were obviously taken aback, and then shouted with an embarrassed smile: "Brother Ning, brother Lan."

Qian Ning frowned, his face darkened, and he shouted directly, "Bai Fang, what are you doing!"

After being yelled at by him, Wu Ziyu came back to his senses, and quickly got up and walked out of the kitchen to the yard.However, the two strange people who appeared in the yard made him a little puzzled.

The brother named Bai Fang, seeing Wu Ziyu coming out, hurried up to meet him, and flatteringly said: "Hey, Angkor, you may not know me, I am the husband of Lin Rui's cousin, you and Lin Rui will get married soon Well, even if it is a family, according to the relationship, you should call me sister-in-law!"

Wu Ziyu was puzzled, isn't Lin Rui's cousin the village chief's son Lin Hui?It's not that he didn't come back from outside, where did this sister-in-law come from?

Qian Ning sneered from the side: "Tch, what kind of sister-in-law, isn't she just a stepmother?"

Bai Fang didn't want others to mention this point the most, so his face darkened immediately: "What's the matter with the step-wife? The step-wife is also the husband that Lin Jiangming's matchmaker is marrying, so why don't you call him sister-in-law?"

How can this be noisy?Wu Ziyu black line.Lin Lan, who was watching the battle, saw that he still didn't understand, so she opened her mouth and explained softly: "Lin Jiang is Haizi's brother, a shopkeeper, and often runs away. Their grandfather and Ruizi's grandfather are brothers. Brother Jiang's original husband Lang died of dystocia, leaving behind a child named Lin Quan, the one standing there. Bai Fang is the second son, he is not good to Lin Quan, and everyone doesn't like him very much."

Hearing what he said, Wu Ziyu understood a little.Qian Ning has no children, and he hates being abused by others, not to mention that Bai Fang is a stepmother.

Although Wu Ziyu understood, someone was upset.

"Bah, Lin Lan, please make it clear. What's wrong with that brat? I have food and clothing, so that he doesn't get sick and not as big as the disaster chief. What's wrong?" Bai Fang's tone was so aggressive that Lin Lin Lan subconsciously hid behind Wu Ziyu.

Qian Ning was not afraid of him, and went up to him directly: "What's so fierce, dare to do it but dare not admit it? Have food and clothing? Yes, I ate leftovers and was not full. I only had a single shirt for three or nine days, and Koizumi got sores on his hands and feet from the cold." , why didn't you say it? No illness or disaster? Thanks to the baby's life, he didn't die!"

"Qian Ning, you have to be conscientious in life. How dare you talk nonsense without evidence? No wonder you haven't had children for so long with such a bad mouth!"

Qian Ning was in a hurry, the child was a thorn in his heart, whoever touched it would be unlucky: "Your mouth is rotten! You don't have children! A vicious person like you will go to hell after death!"

Seeing that Bai Fang was about to retaliate again, Wu Ziyu frowned. He really didn't like such a person very much, so he cut off his cursing words directly: "Okay, shut up! This sister-in-law, you came to the door, what is there?" What are you doing?"

As soon as Bai Fang heard him ask this question, he immediately stopped arguing, and instead of talking about business, he first praised Wu Ziyu: "Tsk tsk tsk, listen to what Angkor said, you really deserve to be from our son."

Wu Ziyu couldn't bear it anymore: "Tell me something, I have something to do!"

Bai Fang was not a person without eyesight, seeing his expression impatiently, he quickly waved to Lin Quan to let him come over.Lin Quan timidly moved over, looked carefully at Wu Ziyu, and said timidly, "Auntie, how are you?"

Wu Ziyu looked at the sallow, emaciated and bony little man in front of him, feeling a little unbearable, so he patted his head with a smile: "Hello Koizumi."

Bai Fang knew at a glance that Wu Ziyu liked Lin Quan, so he said while the iron was hot: "Hey, Angkor, you see, we are all relatives. Now that you and Ruizi are well-off, you can't just let outsiders take advantage of it, right?"

Wu Ziyu raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you mean?"

"Hey, I don't mean anything. You know, your Brother Jiang is just a shopkeeper. He is tired from running and doesn't earn much. The family is really not very good. Look at Lin Quan, he is so hungry. It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, there really isn’t any!”

Looking at Bai Fang, who is physically strong and even a little rich, Wu Ziyu rolled his eyes and said, "Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it, what do you want me to do?"

"I'm not a person who likes to take advantage. Sister-in-law, I heard that you bought the back mountain and are looking for someone to open up wasteland. Look, can you add Lin Quan? Oh, you don't look thin, but you are very strong. "

"Bai Fang, are you crazy?" Qian Ning felt unbelievable. "Ha, it really is the stepmother. Koizumi is only so old and his body is so weak. You let him go to open up wasteland? Why don't you let your family Lin Shi go?"

"I want you to be troublesome! The stone is only so big, he is an older brother, and he is 13 years old, shouldn't he do something for the family." Bai Fang glared at Qian Ning and confronted him tit for tat.

"Lin Shishishi is so small, but Linquan Shisan is so big!" Qian Ning was really mad. He didn't understand why there are such hateful people in this world. Only children who come out of his own stomach are children. They are all handled like cattle and horses.

"none of your business!"

"Okay!" Wu Ziyu stopped the quarrel again, "Sister-in-law, I agree to your condition."

Hearing what he said, Bai Fang was overjoyed, but Qian Ning didn't understand: "Angkor, why did you agree? Look at Lin Quan's small body, isn't it killing him?"

"Brother Aning, be safe and don't be impatient." Wu Ziyu advised.

"How can you stay safe? You are also a person with children. Think about Xiao Nan, how can you have the heart to ask this child to do such a heavy job? You have no shortage of work!" Chan Ning has already begun to attack indiscriminately up.

"Brother Aning, calm down, you misunderstood me."

As soon as these words came out, Bai Fang was unwilling: "What do you mean? Angkor, you're back on your word again? This is not going to happen, you have already agreed."

"Okay, don't quarrel anymore, okay?" Wu Ziyu said with a big head, "Sister-in-law, I promise you, but I have conditions."

"What conditions?"

"Brother Aning is right, Lin Quan is too young, I can't let him do heavy work like land reclamation, but I have other things for him."

"what's up?"

"Don't worry about it. I'll talk about the conditions below. If you agree, people will stay. If you don't agree, they will be taken away. I don't need such a person to work."

Bai Fang gritted his teeth: "Say it!"

"First, land reclamation is heavy work, so I gave [-] Wen a day, but here at Lin Quan, I can only give [-] Wen a day."

Bai Fang was anxious: "Is it too little?"

Wu Ziyu glanced at him, ignored him and continued: "Second, the salary is paid on a monthly basis, and I will cover room and board. That is to say, Lin Quan has to stay where I want him to stay, and he needs to ask for leave when he goes home. OK."

"That's fine, but isn't the salary too low?" Bai Fang still felt pained to lose fifty cash a day all of a sudden.

"Sister-in-law, this land reclamation can last up to a month, but Lin Quan can continue to do it, you have to think about it. If you think it's less, it's fine. At worst, I'll buy one from Ren Yazi, and I don't need to pay wages."

Bai Fang saw that his attitude was firm, and he didn't seem to be cheating, so he secretly calculated in his heart that he could have [-] wen in a month, which is already a lot for an ordinary farmer's family.I was also afraid that he would go back on his word, and he would not even have [-] Wen, so he had to agree: "Okay. But Angkor, I ask for a month's salary first."

Wu Ziyu was also straightforward: "Yes." Then he turned and went back to the house to get the money.But soon, he came out empty-handed.

Seeing Wu Ziyu looking at him with a half-smile, Bai Fang felt a little frightened, subconsciously clutched his belt with his right hand, and pretended to be calm and said, "What, what? Angkor, you, you won't go back on your word again, will you?"

Wu Ziyu curled his lips into a smile: "Sister-in-law, as a human being, you have to know how to accept it when you see it. If you are like this, don't blame me for being rude."

"You, what do you mean?"

Wu Ziyu looked at the place he was covering, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in Qian Ning's mind. With lightning speed, he reached out to Bai Fang's belt and took out a dozen taels of silver.

"Bai Fang! You are a thief!" Qian Ning shouted.

"You nonsense! This is my own." Under Wu Ziyu's cold gaze, Bai Fang's voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and he turned around and staggered, regardless of money or not. and ran away.Lin Quan also wanted to follow, but was held back by Wu Ziyu.

"Bah!" Qian Ning cursed fiercely at the running figure, "Shameless!"
