The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman
Chapter 69: Landlord Recruitment
The Lu family was sitting in the next room, and Wang Quangui and his partner personally received their in-laws.
The banquet outside hadn't started yet, but a table full of dishes had already been laid out here. These were all hardcore dishes that were not usually available. The Lu family rarely even had mixed flour steamed buns, so they were shocked this time.
Father Lu couldn't wait to eat anymore, and Mother Lu couldn't do anything about him, so she could only sit aside awkwardly. His two younger brothers didn't eat either, the meal outside hadn't started yet, and his sister's parents-in-law hadn't started eating either, so they couldn't bring shame to their sister.
Wang Quangui picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and smiled, and Jin followed suit. Now Lu's mother also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be polite, father-in-law and mother-in-law. Today is a big day for our two families. You must eat enough. There are still a lot of dishes in the kitchen. You must eat more."
Mother Lu rarely met strangers, but for her daughter's sake, she gritted her teeth and started, "Thank you for the hospitality, my dear in-laws. I'm sorry for the expense of these delicious dishes."
Jin pretended not to notice Father Lu who was eating without raising his head, and replied to Mother Lu with a smile,
"Of course not. We are very satisfied with Wen Niang. Mother-in-law, don't worry. Wen Niang can come back to her parents' home anytime in the future. These are Yuan and Qiao. They look very well behaved, much better than our Zhi'er."
When Lu's mother heard that her daughter could still go back to her parents' home, she was very happy, and her two younger brothers smiled shyly at Jin.
Seeing that the Lu family was very reserved, Jin winked at Wang Quangui. The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries and then left on the pretext of entertaining relatives.
After Lu Yuan and the others left, he angrily said to Lu's father, "Dad, what did we say when we came here? Our family is poor, and my sister only has one set of clothes as a dowry. She is not confident enough, so we should save face for her. My sister's parents-in-law haven't even touched their chopsticks, why are you acting like you haven't had enough food in your eight lifetimes?"
Father Lu didn't care. "We are honored guests. Why should we wait for others to eat first? Your sister is a capable person. You are a silly boy. What are you worried about?"
Mother Lu was so angry that she shed tears. Lu Yuan was so disappointed that she couldn't make up for her. "Mom, why are you crying? It's a great day for my sister. We should be happy. My sister has finally escaped from the sea of suffering!"
After saying this, Lu Yuan was afraid that Lu's father hadn't heard it, so he glared at Lu's father fiercely.
Father Lu was indignant. "You little bastard, what do you mean by escape from the sea of suffering? Without an old man like me, would there be ungrateful wolves like you? You don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."
Lu Yuan looked at this unreliable father coldly, "It's because you are useless that my sister married in such a shabby way. Dad, if you continue to do this, I will take my brother and live with mom. I can do what I say."
Mr. Lu was so angry that he wanted to smash the bowl on the spot, but he didn't do it because of the gloomy look from his eldest son.
Only then did he realize that his son, who used to be only as tall as his calf, had grown so big. He was afraid of him when he got angry. He looked exactly like his older sister.
Turning around and looking at his youngest son, it was even more terrible. How come the youngest son looked more and more like his grandfather? Neither of them was easy to deal with. His good days were over.
Lu Wenniang on this side didn't know about the lawsuit next door, and even if she knew, she wouldn't be in a hurry. She already knew what her own father was like, and she was lucky not to be a drag. Fortunately, her younger brother had grown up, and she could rest assured that he would get married.
This was the first wedding that Su He participated in. Although there were some minor incidents, overall it could be said to be a complete success.
As expected, everyone got up late the next day and had brunch together.
I made a lot of extra dishes yesterday, and I can just heat them up and eat them today.
At this moment, everyone was eating in Su He's kitchen. The place was large with enough tables and chairs, and everyone was willing to come here to eat and chat together. Even Lin Xiaozhao lowered her head and ate in the corner. Although Su He didn't like her, she didn't say anything for the sake of Tietou and Zhou.
"Sister-in-law, I'm still eating."
Jin saw that the door was open and walked in.
"Where's Lotus? I want to borrow a mule from Lotus."
Lotus stood up and responded, "Aunt, what do you want to borrow the mule for?"
"Hi, someone from Dahe Village came to tell me that the landlord was recruiting people. I'm in a hurry and want to ask you guys, as well as Jingui and the others. Last time, Yuzhen said she wanted to go. I'm afraid that everyone will be recruited soon, so I thought I'd take a bus faster and go ask about the situation."
The Jin family was in high spirits because of the good news. They were so busy yesterday, but they still had the mood to come today.
"But the spring ploughing will start in two days, sister-in-law, we don't have time to go."
Zhou felt it was a pity, but in the eyes of these peasants, the land was the most important thing, no matter how much money the landlord offered.
"Hey, don't I know? I asked, and Lin, the steward of the Jin landlord's family, said that this time the settlement is based on the day, one day's work will pay one day's wages. Starting tomorrow, can't we still work for two days?"
When Jin mentioned making money, she felt motivated. She already had a daughter-in-law and a grandson wasn't far away, so she had to save money quickly.
"this...."
Zhou looked at the people in the room, wanting to ask who was willing to go.
"Xiao Zhao and I will both go."
Wang Bin and his wife were the first to sign up. They had just separated and had nothing, so they had to save money quickly.
Su He looked over in surprise, only to see Lin Xiaozhao lowering his head and not objecting to Wang Bin's words. Has he learned his lesson?
Zhou took a glance and said nothing.
"I'll go as well."
Wang Yanzhi plucked up the courage to sign up, "Aunt, I don't know what the landlord is hiring people for, and I have time."
Jin slapped her head and said, "Look at me, I forgot to tell you that this time the landlord bought a lot of fruit trees. There are not enough servants at home for the dozens of acres of land, so he hired us to work. The men will plant the fruit trees and the women will be responsible for cooking."
"Aunt, it doesn't take many people to cook. Why doesn't the landlord hire people from Dahe Village?"
Su He was a little confused. How could such a good thing happen to their neighboring village?
"Their Dahe Village has already started spring ploughing, so not many people are available. We are also relatively close to Dahe Village. If we have many people who sign up, they will not go to other villages to recruit people."
Jin told everything he knew.
"Yanzhi and Xiaozhao have gone, so there are still four spots left. With Yuzhen and I included, there are still two spots left. Sister-in-law, are you going?"
Jin looked at her sister-in-law expectantly.
"Why don't you sign up for your wife Wen?"
Zhou looked at her brother and sister-in-law with amusement.
"They are in a good relationship now, let them rest for two days. I have already made an agreement with Wen Niang that she and Sheng Zi will stay at home, and Quan Gui, Zhi Er and I will go."
Su He couldn't help but praise him, "Aunt, you are such a good mother-in-law. Go earn some money and let your daughter-in-law rest at home."
After hearing this, Jin couldn't stop smiling. She would earn money and her daughter-in-law would be responsible for giving birth to grandchildren, so nothing would be delayed.
Everyone was talking about whether they should go or not.
No one saw Lin Xiaozhao's angry look.
In the end, it was decided that everyone except my eldest uncle would go to my eldest uncle's house. My eldest uncle would go purely to accompany the two elderly people in the family and take care of the children at home.
My grandfather’s family, Wang Jingui and his wife, and their son also went there.
Because they had to stay at the landlord's house for one night, the grandfather simply took Zheng to live with his brother.
The reason was that he was afraid of the dark.
Su He really suspected that her grandfather was a brother-lover.
But everyone is used to it, and his grandfather, as his brother, also indulges him, so Su He certainly won't say anything.
She also signed up to go to the landlord Jin's house and is now busy packing her luggage.
"Sister, is our family out of money?"
Miaomiao and Mutou no longer had the heart to play, and came over to Suhe and spoke worriedly.
Su He was a little surprised. "How could that be? Sister still has a lot of money. You two kids don't have to worry so much. Don't worry."
Miaomiao patted her chest exaggeratedly, "That's good, that's good."
Mu Tou still frowned, "Since you don't need money, why did you go to the landlord's house to register?"
That's what it was for.
Su He suddenly realized.
"It's my fault for not explaining to you. I went there for a reason, but it's a secret. Just think of me as someone who went out to play. I haven't even seen the landlord's house yet. Miaomiao, you will sleep with Tiantian and grandma tomorrow night. Little grandma will also be with you. Mutou, you and Tietou will sleep with your uncle."
Miaomiao tilted her head in confusion and asked her sister, "Why is there still a little grandma?"
Su He wanted to laugh when she thought about how her little grandfather shamelessly asked her grandfather to sleep with him. He was not a younger brother, but an ancestor.
"It's rare for your grandma to stay here. I want to chat with her."
There’s no other way but to cover it up for the adults.
