''How long have these been planted, and when will they bloom and bear fruit? There seem to be two varieties of these, right? ’’ The village chief touched the leaves and compared them.
''There are two varieties. They were planted in the house in the winter last year and moved out in the spring. I don't know if they will bloom and bear fruit. It has been five or six months now, and it has been in this state. I think about it When are you going to pull one out? ’’ Pei Xiu also cooperated as much as possible and answered as much as possible.
''Oh, when did it go away, tell this old man, I'm really curious what the seeds that Zhou Cheng brought back can be planted? '' The village chief touched his beard, his goal was achieved, and he had other expectations, and he also planned to leave.
Pei Xiu didn't want to hold back. There was still a lot of work to do at home. It was very hard to open up the wasteland these days. She was afraid that Zhou Cheng would be exhausted. Can't stand hunger either.
Her husband's efficiency is still very high, there is really no choice. At this speed, all the back hillsides can be driven out in a month, and then you can go to the village chief to register.
The imperial court encouraged land reclamation. After land reclamation, the waste land belonged to the land reclaimer. The first three years were exempt from tax, and half of the tax was paid in the second five years. After that, the tax was paid according to the cultivated land.
She told Zhou Cheng about the village chief's visit, and Zhou Cheng said he knew it, and told her that he was there for everything, and if there was something he couldn't say, just push him on him.
Pei Xiu looked at him with complicated eyes, how could the person beside her not notice her change, he just pretended not to know. My heart is full, knowing that this person has always believed in her.
Zhou Cheng ate egg pancakes with water. Seeing his daughter-in-law standing stupidly, he pulled her down and brought her a pancake to eat together.
Pei Xiu never asked him why he could be brought back without being injured or disabled. She is also a person with secrets, and she has no confidence to ask him if she has a guilty conscience. Always know anyway.
The two of them work together, and the atmosphere is harmonious. The back hill is just a small slope, and usually no one will come. When the sun goes down, the two will go home together. Pei Xiu thinks that such a peaceful and peaceful life is also very good. She works hard at the sunrise, and breathes every day. There are no major worries, as long as she works hard to live.
Not long after they got home, a few children also came back from school wailing, and their voices could be heard from far away. The dog at the door looked at the four brothers enviously, and asked hello: ''Hammer, is the school fun, what did Master Zhou say. ''
''Today, the master wrote a lot of poems and asked everyone to choose a name. I already have a big name, so there is no need to choose. ’’ Zhou Yong said triumphantly, and strode into the courtyard gate with his three younger brothers.
Goudan looked at his brothers with envy, and felt very sad. His mother wouldn't let him go to school, his grandmother wouldn't help, and the aunt next door was beautiful and gentle and could cook meat every day. How could he not be his mother? It's sad to think about it.
When the children came back, they chatted and said, one by one, what the Master taught today. Pei Xiu saw that they were in high spirits, and she was no longer worried about their adaptability. She just finished her morning practice and went to class full of energy.
Every household has eaten bamboo shoots today, so it's a question of whether it's good or not. Some people's bamboo shoots are old, and they are reluctant to cut off the old parts. Isn't it a waste of time to bite?
The **** next door was swearing and biting her teeth, and it was not boring.
It's not that it's tasteless and tasteless. I can't bear to put oil and salt in cooking. I just eat it when it's cooked in plain water. It's just like pig food. The more and more he missed the oily dishes that his mother cooked, he couldn't imagine how delicious the oily dishes were.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, several children took the boiled eggs that Pei Xiu prepared for them to school. Otherwise, you will not be able to concentrate on the lecture if you are hungry.
For the sake of several children, Pei Xiu was also heartbroken. The chicks hatched in the spring had not yet started laying eggs, and the eggs were all bought. One person and one egg, four a day, can't afford to eat this every day. Several children were malnourished in the past few years, and they managed to raise some of them back, but they can't lose money when they grow up.
As soon as the children were sent away, Mrs. Zhou came to the door aggressively.
Fortunately, the children all went to school, otherwise Zhou Shan's child would be sad again.
''The third daughter-in-law, the third daughter-in-law, where have you been, you prodigal daughter-in-law. ’ ’ The old lady shouted as soon as she got to the door.
Fortunately, Zhou Cheng hasn't gone out yet, so someone can share the old lady's anger, ''Mother is here, come in quickly. ''
''What about your daughter-in-law, ask her to come out, I want to ask her how to be a home. You don't care. '' the old lady cried angrily.
''What's the matter, mother. ’’ Pei Xiu saw that Mrs. Zhou was asking, and knew that she couldn’t escape, guessing that it was for a few children to go to school.
She is also very strange. She has long released rumors that she will send four children to school, so why did the old lady come to the door now. Before UU read , he had asked Zhou Cheng early whether his mother would come and scold her as a prodigal wife, and he really did.
''Tell me what are you doing? Don't you need money for your child to go to school? The eldest can send him to read a few words for two years. Then the second child will be replaced. The third child is so young and sent to do something, it's not a waste. Money? My son needs to support a large family by himself, and he also has to pay for the children to go to school. Can he afford it? '' Pei Xiu saw the spittle that the old lady said, and hurriedly handed her a glass of water to let her catch her breath.
After drinking the water, the old lady softened her tone a bit. ''And the adopted person is not from my old Zhou family. Why do you still spend the money to send him to school? My son's money is not from the wind. It would be good to have him in one bite. Are you confused, the third daughter-in-law? ''
The old lady had softened her tone, but she became more and more angry. What's this called? Some people are reluctant to send their own children, and they are reluctant to pay for the money. They are better. They also send milk babies who are only four years old, not their own. This is to make her angry what.
The old man also said don't worry, those who have their own children and grandchildren are separated, and they are left to toss on their own. What are you talking about? It's also her son when the family is separated. Young people are ignorant. She has to teach her. It's not easy to save some money, but she can't give it to outsiders.
Before they could open their mouths, the old lady hated that iron was not steel and went on to say: ''I would have to think twice about giving one from someone else. You said that the conditions of the village chief’s family were good, and they only gave away two. The eldest brother was still studying for two years, and then he went to the town to find a job idea. Do you think your conditions are better than that of the village chief? You are sending four at a time. I wanted to ask the door when I heard the wind. The old man kept telling me rumors. . I didn't expect it to be true. Did you make a fortune, the third daughter-in-law? ''
