Stingy Husband Farming

When the wine sobered up the next day, the old man Shen and his wife regretted it.

"Old man, tell me, there will be no scams here..." Mrs. Shen was very disturbed, "We finally arrived in Xing'an County, and we will go back before our butts are hot?"

"But what if he is really caught as a refugee..." If you go to other state capitals without a guide, you are indeed a refugee.According to the law, it is necessary to beat the board or sell it into slavery. This is a fact.

But it is not without room for manipulation.As long as you have money, these things were quite easy to settle in ancient times, but the old Shen and his wife didn't know about it.Song Bai knew, but didn't want to tell them.

"We are all old bones, but we can't stand the board." The old man Shen sighed, and he was very hard-hearted: "We are not afraid of any tricks, the Song Mansion is here, and the monk can't escape if he can run away. Temple! If they dare to abandon us, let’s make trouble again and sue the officials!” Old man Shen patted his chest, and there was a pension document signed by Shen Mu inside: “It’s written in black and white, Shen Mu will never try to get rid of us!”

After all, he picked up a potsticker and put it in Mrs. Shen's bowl: "Eat quickly, eat more, don't save them money!"

……

The appearance of the Shen family couple did not disrupt Song Bai and Shen Mu's itinerary.Three days later according to the previous plan, the two took the old man and his wife together on the road and returned to Shenjiatun.

He didn't bring much luggage, there were two carriages in total, Shen Mu and his wife took one with Liu Shi and Ah Huang, and the old Shen and his wife took one.

It wasn't until this day that the old man Shen and Mrs. Liu had a face-to-face meeting with Mrs. Liu. Both of them had different noses and different eyes, and they didn't see each other well.

Old man Shen felt that something was wrong: "It's enough for the two of you to accompany us back to transfer household registration, why should the eldest daughter-in-law also go?"

"When Mother and Xiaomu came, they only provided guides, so it happened to go there together this time to get the household registration." Song Bai made up random words: "I was married at the beginning, and the household registration was all in Shenjiatun. I have to go and bring them here together. "

Old man Shen thought about it, but it was the reason. Although he still felt uneasy in his heart, there was no evidence to speak of, so he could only believe it nervously.

The Song family also came to see them off.Because Song Bai often went on business trips in the past, and he didn't have a strong parting feeling, Song Bai himself said that he would come back when he was free in the future.

Master Song patted his son on the shoulder: "You go ahead, your mother and I will set off the day after tomorrow. Be careful on the road."

Song Bai led Shen Mu to bid farewell to his parents.

"Let's not talk about anything else, when Xiaomu is out of filial piety, the two of you must come back to do the marriage—or each of you will do one." Master Song touched his chin: "It's been so many years. How much money has been sent out, you must be given a chance to get it back!"

For the sake of safety, the carriages chosen this time are all very simple in appearance, and people from the Escort Bureau are also invited to escort them.In order to keep a low profile, there are not many people, but they are all masters, and the driver is also a member of the Escort.

And it was the bodyguard agency that Li Erda introduced back then, old acquaintance, don't worry.

Mrs. Liu complained when she got into the carriage: "You really left them behind! What are you going to do? Xiao Song really plans to keep them? You can't do this even if you have money?"

Thinking about it makes me worry: "I won't come back this time. They find out that they have been cheated, so they have to rely on our house?"

"It doesn't count as relying on it. Thinking about it, we really have to give them two taels of silver every year, which is what we should." Song Bai smiled: "But it's only two taels, not much."

"That's why you said you didn't have it? These people are greedy! Especially since they already know that our family is rich, can they be satisfied with two taels of silver?" Liu was very irritable: "Even if you don't insist much Here, they ask for it every day, and it's annoying enough."

Having lived in the Song Mansion, how could they still be willing to go back and spend two taels of silver to live the hard life in the village?

Liu was very angry: "Really, how did they find it!"

Song Bai comforted her with the same smiling face: "Don't worry, mother, I've already made plans."

Shen Mu also had a reassuring look, completely different from yesterday's annoyance: "Brother Bo and I are so picky, how can we let them take advantage of you!"

Being interrupted by him, Liu couldn't help laughing: "You guys are still reasonable, and you are so proud!"

But Mrs. Liu said something to the point: how did they find it?

Last night Song Bai wanted to say something, but he didn't expect the old man Shen to be quite vigilant and he didn't want to reveal it.

Song Bai didn't believe that they could find them by themselves.Let alone finding it by themselves, the old man Shen and his wife didn't know that their home was in Xing'an County.Then it can only be someone else who brought them over.

Who will it be?

Song Bai thought about the place where the incident happened: the entrance of the cloth shop that was about to open.Who have I and Shen Mu offended recently... The answer is somewhat obvious.

Song Bai shook his head.Ever since he learned to do business, he really couldn't understand the thinking of these people.If you have the money and energy, why not think about how to make customers more satisfied and open up a bigger market?Do not engage in these so-called methods.

Still useless.Turning his head around, old man Shen would turn his back on him?

Think the person behind it is already angry to death now, right?

……

The carriage gradually left Yuxiu Prefecture and entered the boundary of Yuhu Prefecture.

Separated by a city gate, the two state capitals have completely different appearances.Fortunately, the places near Yuxiu Prefecture are good. Although the government expressly prohibits the influx of refugees into Yuxiu Prefecture, there are some brave people who secretly do some small business, and the famine is not too severe.

The deeper you go into Yuhu Prefecture, the more serious the disaster will be.

For the sake of safety, they took the main roads and official roads all the way, and went wherever the prosperity was, but they didn't encounter bandits or refugees robbing them.

But along the way, there are quite a few people who sell their sons and daughters, and even sell themselves.I really have no food to eat, and I can't support myself, so I can only hope that others will buy me, no matter how much money, at least I can have something to eat and survive.

Every time he met a prostitute, Song Bai would sit on the shaft of the car and look at it, and would get out of the car from time to time to ask questions.In the end, I actually bought a family.

"What is Xiao Song doing?" Mrs. Liu was very surprised. Song Bai was not a person with airs. Even in the Song Mansion, he was not willing to order people around when there were servant girls. He could save one.

The same goes for Liu Shi and Shen Mu.They were born in the village and like to do everything by themselves.Both Liu Shi and Shen Mu felt embarrassed when a little maid came to clean the yard.

I have hands and feet, but let a young girl clean the yard.

Now you want to go back to Shenjiatun, there are no servants, but you want to buy instead?This is not something that Xiao Song's stingy temper would do at all!

"It's very useful." Shen Mule said, "It's not for us to order."

What Song Bai bought was a family who sold themselves, a couple in their 40s, and their crippled son in his 20s.Human life in a calamity year is worthless, only five taels of silver in total.

This family also fled from the famine. Speaking of which, their hometown is quite close to Fengshui County, but their county is closer to the sea, and the disaster is more serious. It is the county where the corvee repaired the dam.

At that time, they were washed away by the flood, and many people fled to Yuxiu Prefecture. When they fled to the border, there was no way to guide them, but they couldn't get out of the city. They really couldn't survive, so they wanted to sell themselves.

There were a lot of people selling their bodies on the street, this family was selected, they would not be starved to death, and the family was not separated, so they were so excited that they kowtowed to Song Bai repeatedly.Other prostitutes on the side of the road also cast envious glances at them, and immediately someone brought the child and begged Song Bai to buy it together.

Song Bai rejected it.For now, this family is enough.

Seeing that Song Bai had made up his mind to buy this family, Shen Mu also went down to ask a few words.After asking, I found out that the couple's son was not lame at first, but he broke his leg on the way to escape from famine, and spent all the money on medical treatment.

Now that they don't even have money for food, the whole family is about to starve to death neatly.When he had no choice, he sold himself, and he didn't ask for much money for selling himself, he just wanted to make a living in the master's house and save his life.

Of course, it would be good if they could sell themselves for more money. They still want to use the money to continue treating their son's legs.However, refugees like them can't afford to buy, and besides, the two of them have a disabled person, and they refuse to split and sell, so they must be together as a family.

Song Bai has already asked, all three of them can do farm work, and the woman can also spin and weave.The three of them seem to be honest and honest - Song Bai doesn't really mind even if they are a little treacherous.

After briefing the three of them about the situation, Song Bai let them get into the carriage of the old man Shen and his wife and go back to Shenjiatun together.

The old man Shen and his wife were not very happy at first: the carriage was not spacious, and it was even more uncomfortable to squeeze three people into it at once.

Unexpectedly, Song Bai said, "These people will serve you two elders from now on."

The two were stunned for a while, and then smiled: This Xiao Song is indeed from everyone, he is really sensible!Originally, they thought that when they were in the Song family, Song Bai would not send some maids to take care of them, but they didn't expect to buy special servants for them!

Now follow them back to Shenjiatun, and let them show off.So I don't think the carriage is crowded, but I want to send people to work immediately to live up to the addiction of the master and the old lady.

It's a pity that the carriage is so big, and there is not much work to do.

Song Bai returned to his family's carriage, and then explained his plan to Mrs. Liu.

Most of the things that the Shen family did in the past were done by Shen's second son.Although the two elders of the Shen family hated them, they did not really cause harm to Shen Mu's family - the matter of abandoning Shen Mu actually did not succeed.

In the village, the law is not very important.Since the bad thing didn't happen, since they are elders, it would be a big deal.If Shen Mu and Song Bai really didn't care about the old man Shen and his wife, they would be the ones who got tongue-tied.

However, Song Bai, the annoying person, did not want to exist in his and Shen Mu's life.

As Liu said, the two elders of the Shen family have seen the wealth of the Song family, so it is impossible for them to be willing to live on two taels of silver every year.Even if they were unreasonable, they might make trouble with Shen Mu.Anyway, it doesn't cost money to make a fuss, on the other hand, if Shen Mu is annoyed too much, they can get more benefits.

Rather than bothering myself from time to time in the future, it's better to solve it once and teach them to be good.

These three people were not so much bought to serve the old man Shen and his wife as they were bought to take care of them.

If the business in Shenjiatun started in the future, and the old Shen and his wife went to the door of the shop every now and then to make a fuss like they did two days ago, would it be okay?

They can no longer be chased all the way to Xing'an County.

This possibility must be strangled at the root!
