Rebirth in Another World

On the second day after Brick came back, he was ready to start work, and everyone rushed here when the appointed time arrived early in the morning.

Wang Lan called a total of twenty men, all of whom knew the basics of the village, but when Bai Ran counted them, there were 21, and Li Niu was among them.

Seeing Bairan staring at him, Li Niu scratched his head in embarrassment, "Pingzi hasn't been confinement yet, so let me rush over to help. I have great strength, so just do what you need."

"How can I let you do free work, big brother? The wages are the same as others." The situation of Yu's family is not good, so how can Bai Ran really ask someone to do free work for him.

Li Niu immediately shook his head and waved his hands to refuse, "If you say no, then don't, why are you being polite to me? If it weren't for your ginseng, my wife and son would have disappeared, and you even helped me to avenge my revenge. It’s too late for the whole family to thank you, so how can they ask for your money.”

Seeing the other party's resolute attitude, Bai Ran stopped refusing, and just went over to buy something when he was done with work, "I don't have much time to go there recently, how is Pingzi, how is Dabao and Erbao?"

When mentioning his daughter-in-law and two sons, the smile on Li Niu's face became much more sincere, "They are all well, don't think they won't turn over yet, but they have come out with that kind of energy, they don't stop all day long, but my mother Pingzi has been tossed and broken, by the way, the two boys will be full moon in a few days, don't forget to come to my house for dinner, Pingzi is always talking about you."

"Success, how can I miss the full moon wine for my two godsons." Thinking of those two little guys, Bai Ran also likes it tightly. Not only can the full moon wine not be missed, but two more gifts have to be prepared.

Wang Jinshui and Wang Shi began to divide the work of talking, and the big guys went to do what they should do immediately. Seeing that it was not good, Li Niu just stood and chatted and followed others.

Bai Ran also wanted to go up to help, but Wang Shi spotted him as soon as he moved.

Once the boy takes the pregnancy pill, not only will his strength become weaker, but his body will not be as strong as other men. Building a house is a laborious task. How can Wang Shi let Bai Ran do the work? Now, go back and prepare dinner with your mother."

Bai Ran considers himself a man, and these jobs are what he should do, "I'm in good health, even if I can't do the big jobs, I can help you as a helper."

Wang Jinshui also came over to chase him away, "Come on, go back quickly, Boen will be looking for you again later, his legs are not good enough, he can't leave anyone."

Under this double attack, Bai Ran had no choice but to turn around and walk back.

It was still early when he returned to Wang's house, he was not in a hurry to cook for those people, and he was idle, so he turned on the stove, washed the big pork bones he bought and threw them into the pot, and cut two slices of old ginger Add water to cook the soup.

He heard that pork bone soup is more nourishing for people with broken bones, so when he bought meat, he brought back a few sticks to make up for fools.

Stewing bone soup is a slow job, and the oil and water in the bones must be boiled out to be considered good, so after the water boiled and skimmed the foam twice, it was ignored, and I turned around and went out to clean up the yard.

Wang Chun went back to town, Wang Lan went out to wash clothes, Cheng Yongfei was dragged up to the mountains by his father to hunt, and now there was no one else in the whole Wang's courtyard except him and the idiot, it was so quiet that it made people worry.

Wu Yue'e came in while she was busy.

Wu Yue'e saw that Bai Ran was a little embarrassed, and she didn't see the cheerfulness of yesterday at all. It took a long time before she could say, "Brother Bai, I'm here."

Bai Ran put down the broom in his hand, "Sister Yue'e came early, it's just after breakfast, why don't you go indoors for a while."

"No need, I'll help you tidy up the yard first." Wu Yue'e hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, she had taken Bairan's broom in the past, she was used to doing things at home, cooking and tidying up the house was completely easy, much faster than Bairan's.

Seeing this, Bai Ran couldn't say anything, so he went into the kitchen to watch the fire. After waiting for more than an hour, Wang Lan came back with a beaming face. The Bai family is going to be very upset this time... Yo, Yue'e is here." After shouting, she didn't notice Wu Yue'e in the courtyard until she entered the door, and she was a little embarrassed.

"Aunt Wang." Wu Yue'e yelled, and immediately ran to the kitchen to watch the fire for Bai Ran. Bai Ran came out and helped Wang Lan hang clothes, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Those who suffered thousands of knives from Lao Bai's family are unlucky this time." The more Lao Bai's family suffered, the happier Wang Lan was, and she could sing beautifully, "The whole village of Taoxi Village The land of Lao Bai's family has not been confiscated yet, and the old lady Bai is in a hurry, forcing Bai Zhengbao's family to go down to the land, and even Li Qiulian, who raises her legs, is driven over. Before this, you were the one who took the lead in the farm work of Lao Bai's family, and took them all. All the delicate skinned and tender ones raised are not suitable for work, but they all kicked up in less than a day. They were still scolding in the field just now. I heard that Bai Jinfan did something, and slapped the old lady Bai. .”

Bai Ran sneered, what is meant by the wicked will be tortured by the wicked, and what is called self-inflicted suffering, isn't this a typical pattern, "The old lady Bai is used to this kind of temperament, now she can take a good look at her good son, okay?" What happened to the grandson?"

"But it's more than that." Wang Lan put it close to Bai Ran's ear mysteriously, and whispered, "I also heard that your third aunt who married to the county was divorced."

This third aunt refers to Bai Zhengtong, the third daughter of the old lady Bai, who married a businessman in the county more than 20 years ago and became a wealthy wife in the county. Although Bai Ran has never met this third aunt, the things in it are I heard from Lao Bai's family that after all, the rich wives in the county town have the capital to show off. At that time, no one thought that if Bai Zhengtong wanted to control them, there would be no big news.

However, the old lady Bai's heart hurts except for the eldest son's family, and only the third daughter is left. Bai Zhengtong is married well, even if she doesn't come back to take a look at the big and small things during the festivals and festivals after she gets married and returns home, that's good if she doesn't subsidize a copper coin of.

It wasn't until the eldest son's family was short of money to open a shop in the town that the old lady Bai immediately supplemented it with her own money. After coaxing the eldest son, the private money was almost empty, so she couldn't help but asked someone to send a few letters, but all It was nothing, not to mention the money, she didn't even get a reply, and then she went to look for it by herself, but when she reached the county town and found the door, the servant who opened the door said that Madam was not there, and closed the door. In the end, there was no door go in.

After the old lady Bai came back, she didn't say a word to the third daughter in the village. If Bai Zhengtong was really divorced, the old Bai's house would definitely be lively again this time around.

"I just can't figure it out. The businessmen in the county are full of money, so why did they marry that annoying bastard Bai Zhengtong?" After so many years, Wang Lan really never figured it out. It would be okay if Bai Zhengtong was good-looking , but her appearance is really not outstanding. To put it bluntly, she is the face of the public.

"If you drink a bowl of CHUN medicine, nothing will happen, and businessmen pay attention to honesty and reputation, threaten threats, and then cry, make trouble, and hang themselves. If you don't do it, you can't do it." Bai Ran has indeed heard Lao Bai's family mention this matter , I only know that the general process is like this, but the specific situation is not clear. He dried the last piece of clothing.

"It seems to be something that their old Bai's family would do. Now the whole village is watching their house being lively again." Wang Lan walked into the house with the clothes basin in her arms, and stopped suddenly in the middle, "By the way, just now I met the village chief’s wife and heard from her that the corvee tax collectors will be coming down in the next two days, are your things ready?”

"This year's situation is a bit tight, and there is not much grain on the five mu of land, so we can pay the money directly." When he mentioned this, Bai Ran felt a little worried. Five mu of land was too little for farmers. The money can only come out but not in. If it goes on like this for a long time, it will definitely not work. You need to get some stable income.

There have been a wave of merchants collecting grain from outside, and each family is also looking for ways to sell grain one after another. Wang Lan is also a little worried for him, "What do you want to do?"

"I want to buy some more land, keep a little bit of it for myself, and rent out the rest." Bai Ran thought for a while, and felt that this was the only reliable point. Rural families cannot do without land. As long as there are no natural disasters, they can eat all year round. Renting is also pretty good.

Wang Lan is much more obsessed with land than Bai Ran, an outsider. In the countryside, whoever has more land is a well-off household. Although he can't compare to the town's lord, he is respected wherever he goes in the village. "This is also a way out. It just so happens that the autumn harvest is over now. You can go to the village chief's house and ask about it later. This matter should be done as early as possible, otherwise you will not be able to buy good ones when it is too late."

"Sure, I'll go back to the house to see Boen first." Bai Ran looked at the sun, saw that the weather was nice and warm today, so he wanted to move the idiot out to bask in the sun.

The idiot injured his leg and he was quite honest. He sat on the kang and stared blankly at the front. Occasionally he heard a movement and glanced at the door, so when Bai Ran came in, he noticed it from a long distance away, so Struggling to stand up, but fell back in pain, so he said aggrievedly: "Xiao Ran, it hurts."

"Who told you to move around, you deserve it." Bai Ran reprimanded her, but her feet moved a lot faster. She reached the front of the kang with a few steps, used her supernatural power to heal the fool's legs a little, and then supported him. Go down slowly.

Half of the fool's weight was leaning on Bairan's body, but he was tall and burly, but he seemed to be walking forward with his arms around him.

When they arrived in the yard, Wang Lan immediately dragged a chair and placed it in a sunny place in the middle of the yard, and then helped him sit down with Bai Ran.

"Sit here and don't move, or you'll be confiscated for a month!" Bai Ran pretended to threaten with a cold face. Usually, this threat was very useful, but today the fool was a little bit twitchy, thinking that his favorite big meat could be ranked second.

As for the first...

"I don't want big meat, I want hugs, and I want a baby." The fool's face was stubborn, as if he didn't eat meat for a month as long as he gave him a baby.

Wang Lan suddenly laughed, and dragged Bai Ran, who was about to fix her up, to the kitchen. While walking, she replied the fool's words, "If you want a baby, you have to work harder."

"Mother!" Bai Ran was so entangled that he was dying, why are they so obsessed with this matter? If it is true, he also has a son, or two, godson...

Wang Lan pretended not to understand, but her eyes were full of ridicule, "What's wrong? Could it be that this doll has already slipped into the sole of your foot?"

Bai Ran helplessly supported his forehead, grabbed the prepared cabbage and put it on the cutting board, "Sister Yue'e is still here, hurry up and cook, it will take a long time for more than 20 people."

The appetite of more than 20 men will definitely not be small, so he prepares a large pot to stew pork and cabbage, cut more meat, put less cabbage, and serve with pickled pickles. The staple food is pancakes mixed with cornmeal and white flour.

This side is almost ready, and the bone soup over there is also ready, Bai Ran filled a bowl for Wang Lan and Wu Yue'e, then found a slightly larger small basin to fill it up, and served it to the fool.

The taste of the big bone soup must be good, the fool's eyes lit up after taking a sip, he threw away the spoon, blew on the hot air, and drank it from the basin one mouthful at a time, as if he had been hungry for ten meals.

But the idiot stopped after drinking half of it, and pushed the rest to Bai Ran, "It's delicious."

Bai Ran felt warm in his heart, rubbed the fool's head, took a sip with a spoon to signal for himself to drink, then pushed back, "You can drink it yourself, there are still some in the kitchen."

Only then did the fool continue to drink, but his eyes were still on Bai Ran.

It was almost noon at this time, so Bai Ran dragged Wang Lan to take care of the fool, and Wu Yuee and himself packed up the food and delivered it.

Seeing them coming, Wang Shi and Wang Jinshui immediately yelled twice to ask people to come over for dinner. Twenty or so men gathered in a large circle without using bowls or anything. Each person had a pair of chopsticks, grabbed the pancakes and ate the pork that had been divided into several pots. Stewed cabbage to eat.

Everyone who ate the five-flowered three-layered meat slices was greasy and smooth. The freshly pickled cucumbers were not too salty, but they were crisp and fresh. One bite of meat slices and one bite of salty cucumbers satisfied both hunger and greasiness. He was full of praise for his cooking skills, and even worked harder in the afternoon, and he just finished two days of work in one day.

In the next few days, Bai Ran tried to do things differently. Every day, he was full of big meat, and occasionally fried some fatty sausage and pork liver. After a compliment, the other families who didn't agree to Wang Lan or were not approached were moved.

At this time, the people who come here cannot be used, otherwise, if one comes in, the other families will definitely not be happy, so Bai Ran and the Wang family all refused, and no one was left behind.

Despite this, some people who love to criticize are still not happy, so those ugly gossips immediately became popular, and the more they spread, the more they seemed to be true.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Although the villagers intentionally shut the Wang's house when they gossip, accidents are inevitable. Wang Lan went out this day. She thought she was going to the village chief to inquire about buying land for Bai Ran, but when she turned a corner, she ran into several people. In this village, a woman who is notoriously talkative sits under an old tree in the middle of the village chatting.

A fat woman said: "Let me see, this is probably true. Think about it, if the Bai family boy hadn't hooked up with the rich man, how could he have so much money to build a house and eat meat?" of."

The Huang family who has been brought back is also here, and after hearing what the fat woman said, he immediately continued: "I said yes, but Boy Bai was exiled and left the house, even if he fought for the five acres of land, he didn't have much harvest. It might be possible to build a house with green bricks and tiles, don’t even think about how much money you’ll get, if you say this isn’t hooking up with someone, I’ll cut off my head and give you a stool to sit on!”

The fat woman nodded quickly, "But it's more than that. I heard that he broke the leg of his stupid husband. It is said that someone happened to pass by and saw it. The white boy originally wanted to hurt his brother." The life of the foolish gentleman, so that he can go with that rich master."

"You wicked people gossiping all day long, I'm fighting with you!" Wang Lan felt that her anger was soaring up to the point of her neck, and she wanted her family Ranzi's life if she said this!

When she rushed up, she kicked those people to the ground, and beat them like desperately, especially Mrs. Huang and the fat woman.
