The Red Chamber Collection

Living in such an earthen house has the same benefits, warm in winter and cool in summer.Daiyu lived for a long time, but she got used to it.When I go to bed at night and turn off the lights, even though there is a bright moon outside, it is still pitch black inside.At first Daiyu was afraid.Zicuckoo watched her fall asleep every night before she fell asleep.Later, a bed was added in the room, and Zijuan slept on another bed.Xiaocui slept in another room.Martial arts practitioners are more vigilant, so any movement cannot be hidden from her ears.

Since these gangsters were dealt with, Zhuangshang and the neighboring gangsters avoided them.Although there are nonsense in the mouth on weekdays: I would rather die under the flowers than be a ghost.Die a see?This is really dead!Thinking that when the princess came to the village, if she hadn’t met the peach blossom wedding and the lady interceded, she would still see those good men on the road now? !

Some people have doubts, why does this princess call Miss a younger sister?This Daiyu must not be a princess. It is said that there are three poor relatives in the emperor's family. In this way, this lady is one of them.

The days went on undisturbed and ordinary like this, and Daiyu just did some big work every day.For example, whoever gives more money, she will do it.Zijuan said nothing at first and wouldn't let her do it, but how can Zijuan's words stop Daiyu's temper?Zijuan then thought of his dream, which was the same as the scene in the dream.I have to follow Daiyu.

Because of the princess, Daiyu's reputation has long been outside.Now I heard that the young lady is also a female celebrity for foreigners, so they come to the door one after another to beg.The price has been rising all the way, that is to say, the agreed price, the rich family's well-off family is also covered with Xie Yin.

In fact, Daiyu has very little time to do it, because she is not as delicate as Zijuan, and every time she does it, she is always pulled by Zijuan.This kind of door-to-door work is accumulated.Zijuan wanted to retreat, but was stopped by Daiyu.

"Now this matter, we have to make a long-term plan. Since there are so many jobs and the price is high, why not find some sisters who are responsible, even if they are free daughters-in-law, they can earn some money to subsidize the family. Wouldn't it be Two stools?!"

Zijuan was very happy when he heard about it.Talk about the sisters who come to play on weekdays, such as Xinghua, Meihua, Chrysanthemum, Xiaotao and so on.They went back and told their parents one by one, some agreed and some disagreed.Those who agreed said, "Our family doesn't want the money, we just want to be able to learn the rules from others, so that when we leave the court, we can also embarrass our natal family." Those who disagreed said: "She is a down-and-out young lady. , Worrying about making a living, pointing at this female celebrity to beg for food. When will we be short of your use, or your food?! Looking at it now, although she is a young lady, you are more blessed than her."

After recruiting seven or eight people, Zijuan never let Daiyu do anything again.Today the price is high enough to feed several people.What's more, among the girls and daughters-in-law nowadays, there are those who love to be clean and don't like to be clean. They work with Daiyu every day. Even if they burn more incense, some of them still smell bad.Zijuan discussed with Daiyu, "Now that there are too many people, there is no room for us to sit in the house. We have some silver taels in hand now, why don't we build three more houses, what do you think?"

"Where are three houses enough? I'm thinking, since there are so many things to do now, it's better to recruit more people. I don't think you should do it. It's better to guide them to do it, let them do it more delicately, don't fool others, which daughter-in-law Isn’t the mother-in-law a professional?! It’s just that the work from us, without a mark, is not acceptable. If there is a mark, the work we go out is good and famous, and it is also the capital of the family to show off, so that it will not be in vain. Spend so much money to come to us to order."

Zijuan clapped her hands and said with a smile: "It's better to be a cultured person, and the brain is flexible! How about we build more rooms? I don't understand the sign, too. The young lady decides!"

"This homestead is a bit small. Whose land is on this side? If we offer a good price, I don't know if he will sell it or not?"

Zicuckoo was puzzled, not knowing why Daiyu bought the land, so she thought, I don't think too much about it, if the young lady makes up her mind, I'll just implement it.

"Zhuang Xitou belongs to Li Xiao's family, I'll just ask him."

Let's talk about this Li Xiao, who is now twenty-two, but because of his poor family, he has never married a wife.Only the Zicuckoo's house has two acres of Susukida, which is not a fertile land.There are no livestock at home, and there is not much manure to apply, so the soil quality cannot be changed.The grain laid down is less than one year's use, so we have to use wild vegetables to help satisfy our hunger.

Li Xiao's father was exhausted by illness last year and passed away, leaving behind his orphans and widowed mother.Only Li Xiao can make the decision.

"Brother Li Xiao, can you sell your land? My lady wants to buy your land and give you a good price. It is 60 taels of silver per mu. How about you buy it elsewhere?" I met Li Xiaozheng on Zijuan Road. Going down to the ground with a hoe, they talked and walked back with Li Xiao.

Li Xiao is a simple and honest young man, hearing what Zijuan said, this is a big deal.He thought for a while, and said to Zijuan: "Sister, this matter is too big, I'll go back and discuss it with my mother. Our land is also barren, I can't lie to you about this, your lady wants to offer a good price at first?"

"This brother doesn't need to ask, you just go back and discuss it, and let me know the result."

Hearing this, Li Xiao stood down, "Then how about I go back and discuss with my mother now? Don't delay your young lady's important affairs."

"Why don't you go soon?!" Zicuckoo said playfully.

Li Xiao smiled and turned around.Zijuan looked at the young man's back, although he was strong, he had the urge to bully him.

After lunch, Li Xiao called Zijuan outside the gate of Zijuan's courtyard. Zijuan opened the door and let him into the house, but Li Xiao refused to go in anyway, "There are so many girls working inside, not to mention you The lady is here!" Then said: "Mother said, if the lady needs it, I will sell it to you, but at the usual price, I dare not lie to the lady. If the lady has no objection, it is 45 taels of silver per mu, a little more than two mu, and the total How about 100 taels of silver?"

"That's it, I'll ask Miss, you come with me!" Seeing that Li Xiao's face was red, Zijuan didn't move.Smiling, "Then you just wait!"

Zijuan listened to what Li Xiao said to Daiyu, and Daiyu said: "At this time, when talking about buying land with others, he must have taboos in his heart. But it’s much more refreshing. Aren’t the neighbors afraid?! We have left a bad reputation in their hearts. Now they are also in trouble, and we don’t care about the ten taels of silver. If we buy this land and build a house, I’m afraid In the future, our money will flow home like water!"

Zijuan thought Daiyu was teasing her, so she said with a smile, "Miss is also daydreaming!"

Daiyu was in a hurry, "You little hoof, you will have a lot of money, so I won't let you do it."

As soon as the "little hoof" came out, both of them laughed. This was Daiyu's style in Jia's mansion.Now that I am down and out, I am in a hurry to export it inadvertently.If she thought about it, Daiyu wouldn't say that.

Zicuckoo was scolded, but felt kind.She remembered what was going on again, "How much taels should we give Miss Yi?"

"That's good, he wants 100 taels, give him 120 taels!"

Zijuan came out, "Our lady said, I will give you 120 taels. If you are willing, I will find a middleman in the next few days, pay the money with one hand, and hand over the land deed with the other hand. When the grain is harvested this season, I will hand over the land to you." We use it. You go back and discuss it with your mother, okay?"

"No, no, we are honest people, how can we bully the young lady? We only need 100 taels! It's okay, it's settled like this!"

"You're just talking! If you talk too much and make the young lady angry, the officials will arrest you and beat you up. Do you still dare to talk stubbornly?!"

Li Xiaozhi Zijuan made fun of him, blushing and said, "How can this be? This..."

"You're stuttering here. Now that you have this silver, you can buy two acres of good land and have 20 taels left over for other purposes." After all, Zijuan learned a little from Daiyu, and said again: " If you feel sorry, we are all girls here. From now on, you will take over the work of carrying water, and we will pay you every month, what do you think?"

"What kind of work is this? We country people have no shortage of strength. I will take care of the water in the future. But the money must not be collected. Don't say that my mother scolded me, even the neighbors, each mouthful of saliva. Am I drowning?!" As he spoke, he went into the house, saw two buckets, took the shoulder poles, and went without looking up.

Daiyu stood in the courtyard, listening to two people talking. Zijuan came in, and Daiyu looked at her without saying a word.But in my heart, I still have one more thing!
