In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Chapter 99: Mrs. Li and her family return to the village

After returning from Licheng, He Qiudi would personally copy "Dream of the Red Chamber" in his spare time. After more than ten days of copying, he finally finished copying 80,000 words, which could be made into a book.

When Yan Shi was reading "Dream of the Red Chamber", there was an uncontrollable tremor in his eyes.

It was the first time he had read such a wonderful work.

He Qiudi said that this book was not written by her.

During the banquet, we tacitly agreed not to ask any more questions.

He Qiudi's intention was to give him the books, and let him provide the manpower and space to build a bookstore, publish books, and make money.

He could use the money he earned to give her royalties, and keep the rest for himself.

At the banquet, the money was distributed to the common people.

He is just a runner, helping with the work.

He Qiudi wanted to "money for writing", so he gave her 200 taels at the banquet. He wanted to give her more, but He Qiudi refused, so he had to say that he would give He Qiudi more money after the book was released and the sales were good.

He Qiudi had no way to get the two hundred taels of silver, so he could only stuff them back into the port space.

She planned to use the gold and silver she received from the port space to purchase the supplies that Gold Finger brought with him.

In reality, you rely on the money you earn from reality to buy what you want.

However, with the income from soap, she and the He family were not short of money, and she was not in a hurry to "make a living" with the money she earned "secretly".

After handing the manuscript to Yan Shi, He Qiudi took the things Yan Shi gave her back to the grocery store, and took He Dalang, He Sanlang and He Qinglu to buy some beef, mutton and other food and go home.

Tomorrow, the He family will officially begin preparing for the autumn harvest.

Some of the people who came to help the He family build the house have already returned to their own homes to prepare for the autumn harvest.

The people who were given gifts at the banquet were those who specialized in building houses for other people and earned wages, so they didn't have to leave.

There are also some people who don’t have much land at home and have important labor to take care of the autumn harvest. They can still continue to stay in the He family and help build houses and earn wages.

Uncle Jin took his eldest cousin back to Taohua Village to help with their autumn harvest. After they finished harvesting the crops, a few more people would come to help with the work.

The He family will do the autumn harvest work themselves.

The He family originally had thirty acres of dry land and twenty acres of fertile farmland, a total of fifty acres of crops to harvest. Even if the whole family went to the fields to harvest in autumn, it would take half a month.

He also bought 15 acres of dry land and 5 acres of good farmland from the Li family.

If we want to complete the autumn harvest on schedule as usual, we need help from outsiders.

The Jin family has many young and strong laborers, but they don't have much land. When they finish their work, they will come to the He family to help, which helps relieve a lot of pressure on the He family.

Before I knew it, it had been almost four months since I came to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The time for He Qingya's rebirth is getting closer and closer.

He Qiudi's mind is still on her. He doesn't know if she will encounter any turning point and be reborn if she follows her second sister-in-law to the Xu family?

Anyway, in the novel, He Qingya was reborn shortly after the autumn harvest.

So she couldn't stop He Huaijin and He Huaibi from passing the examinations.

He Qiudi was sitting on the donkey cart, lost in thought.

Dalang was given a leave from working in the fields. He was already eleven years old and could be used as a laborer.

He Sanlang was nine years old and He Qinglu was eight years old. The two little followers could only do some errands and could not do much.

The donkey cart drove into Pomegranate Village.

Sun Xiuer ran over and said to He Qiudi, "Qiudi, Qiudi, Li Goudan and his family are back."

He Qiudi jumped off the donkey cart.

"What? They're back?"

She remembered the Li family.

She sold her land early, packed up her things, and went to Licheng to join her brothers from her mother's family.

Haven't heard from them for a long time.

Now he's back with such a thick face?

Yes, not only Shiliu Village does not have to flee famine.

With her small amount of rainfall, and in order to recruit soldiers and corvee labor, Yan Shi issued an order strictly prohibiting the people in Lizhou counties from fleeing famine. Liu County, Wei County, and Lan County, which are west of Ningyuan County and closer to the border of Western Rong, no one fled from famine anymore.

Some disaster victims want to escape the famine.

But they had no passes and were basically left to the west of Ningyuan County and the west of Licheng, and did not dare to leave too far.

In addition, the government has shown through various phenomena that disaster relief will be provided during the autumn harvest.

With disaster relief on the horizon, many victims are willing to wait until the autumn harvest is over and then decide whether to flee the famine depending on the situation.

If one can survive in his hometown, who would be willing to flee famine and become a homeless refugee without a pass issued by the government?

During the spring ploughing season, the Li family felt that there would be a drought this year and they could not survive, so they rashly sold their farmland, the foundation of their survival. This was not a wise move at all.

Now that they are back and see that the He family is making a lot of money, they will definitely do something weird again.

Thinking of the corn and sweet potatoes he had intercropped in the Li family's fields, He Qiudi frowned and told Dalang and Sanlang to drive the donkey cart back home, while he quickly walked towards the He family.

really.

The Li family has already started a fight at the He family.

At the same time, many villagers gathered in the He family's courtyard.

Old Mrs. Li, along with her daughter-in-law and several grandchildren, rolled around in the He family courtyard, crying loudly. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

Especially Old Mrs. Li, she sat on the ground, crying with tears and snot, and clapping her legs and hands.

He looks like a scoundrel.

"He Mengshi, you half-cheated and half-bought our Li family's 15 acres of land. Shiliu Village has a good terrain and good feng shui. Compared with other nearby villages, every household has a good harvest this year. No other place in Lizhou has as abundant water resources as here."

"You, the He family, cheated us out of our land. You only gave us twelve taels of silver for twenty mu of land. Now the land in Shiliu Village costs three taels of silver per mu, right? Don't you feel guilty?"

"Fellow villagers, elders, please help us. The Li family has its roots in Shiliu Village. The Li family won't go anywhere else. They just want the He family to return the land to us. Otherwise, I will go to the government office to sue the He family for fraud and being rich and unkind! You He family are making a fortune today, but you are greedy for even the life-saving land of our Li family. You have no conscience!"

As she was speaking, Old Lady Li saw He Qiudi coming back.

She got up and pointed at He Qiudi, threateningly: "He Mengshi, let me ask you, are you going to return the Li family's land or not? If not, I will go to Yan Shi to sue you! If that doesn't work, I will just bump my head against your door and die. I don't think He Qiudi can survive! I don't think you, He Qiudi, have the dignity to marry Master Yan Shi!"

See He Qiudi.

Old Mrs. Li seemed to have seen something wrong with the He family.

The He family wants to curry favor with the rich and powerful through He Qiudi. If she ruins the He family's reputation, who knows whether the rich and powerful will still want He Qiudi!

If she doesn't have a good life, the He family who took advantage of her won't have an easy life either!

When seeing Old Lady Li threatening He Qiudi, a hint of ferocity flashed in Old Lady He's eyes!

The Li family returned to the village quietly yesterday.

The Li family and the He family are far apart, and old lady He was busy with a lot of things, so she didn't receive the news in advance.

The Li family took advantage of the fact that there were many people working in the He family and sent the elderly, the weak, the women and the children in the family to cause trouble.

Originally, the He family's purchase of the Li family's land was a fair transaction. No matter where the Li family went to reason, the He family had no reason to return the land to them.

So, while Old Lady He watched them quarreling coldly, she invited the head of the village and the elders of the clan to come and judge the situation.

Who would have known that the clan elders and the head of the village would actually try to smooth things over.

Now that Old Lady Li was targeting Qiu Di again, Old Lady He's rage suddenly flared up.
