Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy-Ninth Tenant Medicine Field

When Li Zhu's daughter-in-law heard the words, it was as if she had been struck by lightning, and she did not recover for a long time. I originally thought that the more than 200 acres of land in the mountains belonged to the village. Redistribution after the beginning of the spring, each family can be divided into at least six or seven acres, their family did not catch up this year, can not miss it next year. Who knew those lands had become private property...

Li Zhu's parents passed away early, and before leaving, he asked the old village chief to take care of his nephew more. The old village chief couldn't bear to see his nephew's daughter-in-law's expression like a concubine, so he gave her a clear way: "The Gu family must be going back to Yancheng. His family's more than 80 acres of medicinal fields will either be rented to the people in the village, or Please plant. If you two really want to plant, you can go to Gu Laowu and ask. However, don't blame Uncle for being so talkative.

Li Zhu's daughter-in-law regained her energy. Some people in her parents' village rented other people's land to grow the crops. In addition to the tax, they turned in 40% of the grain, and the rest belonged to her own. The newly cultivated wasteland does not have to pay taxes for the first three years. Planting one mu of medicine can yield sixteen to seventy taels. If 40% of the land is planted, one mu can be as much as eight or nine taels, which is much more cost-effective than growing grain.

Gu's family only has 80 acres of land, and the remaining dozen or so households in the village are waiting. She can't let others take the lead. Li Zhu's daughter-in-law couldn't sit still, and hurriedly bid farewell to the village chief's house, and went directly to Gu's house.

The Gu family had just finished their work at this time and was ready to start dinner. Li Zhu's daughter-in-law regularly explained her intentions. She was really afraid that Fifth Master Gu would not give it to her, because she knew that her mouth was not pleasing, and she inadvertently offended many people. Before, she used to tell people about Gu Ye'er brothers and sisters behind their backs... Now that she thinks about it, her face is full of embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wuye agreed without saying a word, and said that he would rent the fattest piece of land to her family. Li Zhu's daughter-in-law left with great gratitude, and she went home and told the man about it. Li Zhu said at the time: "Since Gu Wushu looks down on us so much, then we have to plant the medicine, so as not to disappoint the good intentions of the fifth uncle."

Although Li Zhu was a little mixed up, he didn't find anything he thought was worth doing. Now, one mu of land can earn eight or nine taels of silver, and if you get five acres of land, it will be forty or fifty taels a year. Thinking about it, you will be motivated!

The next day, without his mother-in-law's urging, he went to the medicine field to help voluntarily. The medicinal materials in the fields, except the perennial ones, have been put into the warehouse. What to do now is to clean up the medicine field and dig deep. Li Zhu is tall and tall, has a lot of strength, and works very hard.

Others in the village were surprised when they saw it. You must know that Li Zhu has a bad reputation in the village. He works stealthily and cheats, and often hooks some people for money. To put it bluntly, he is not doing it right. There must be a reason for this sudden diligence.

When I inquired, I learned that his family owned five acres of medicine fields owned by Gu Wuye's family. People who didn't grow medicinal herbs with the Gu family in Chunshang would have regretted their bowels a long time ago. As soon as I heard that the Gu family was going out to rent a medicine field. I can get more than half of my annual income, and my mind is active.

The front of Gu's house started to get lively. The owner picks up a few eggs and the west picks up a basket of vegetables, all of which are close together. Even Gu Ye was stopped several times by the aunt in the village, trying to find out what she said. Annoying her.

Anyway, Yaotian and their family didn't have time to take care of them, so they all went out, so as not to be worried about them all the time. As soon as the Gu family spoke out, the heads of the remaining dozen or so families in the village came to the door. Sitting in the yard.

In the end, everyone was happy with the results. Each family of more than a dozen families was five acres. There are families with a small population that cannot be served, and we can negotiate and distribute them to those with a large population. However, whoever wants to spit out the fat in their mouths, even if they don't grow in the mountains at home, they must first serve the medicinal fields that lay the golden eggs. With silver, do you still have no food?

Gu Xiao made a contract with every household, signing it once a year, and signing it again after a year if he was willing to continue planting. However, the ugly words are in the head, if someone is cheating and cheating, and the quality of the medicine is not good, the Gu family will not accept it. And to take back the land, and to compensate for the loss of the Gu family.

When the villagers heard this, they immediately sounded the alarm bell, reminding their family members to carefully serve the medicine fields and not to do stupid things. There are also some who think their own land is small, and they are also staring at other homes secretly, seeing who is lazy, and complaining about it, maybe they can get an extra acre next year!

After Liu was suspended, he stayed in Qingshan Village. Her parents didn't want to take care of her, so she had nowhere to go, so she could only stay in Qingshan Village. She sometimes has a cheeky face, doing odd jobs in the Gu family's medicine field, or digging some wild vegetables and picking some mountain goods in the mountains, just to make ends meet.

She lived in the Wu family's house for a few days before being kicked out by the villagers. It was because there was a family in the village who was going to marry a daughter-in-law for their youngest son, but the house in the family was not enough. In addition, the children of this family, working in the Gu family's pharmaceutical factory, earned a dozen or two in less than half a year. Then he spent money to buy the Wu family's house and use it for his younger son to marry a daughter-in-law.

Liu could only ask his grandfather to tell his grandmother and ask the villagers for help. He built a grass hut next to Wu's house and lived in it to make ends meet. At this time, Mrs. Liu, with her round body, was so thin that her face was drooping, her hair was nearly half white, and she didn't look like she was just over thirty, like an old woman in her fifties.

Today, she also squeezed in, licking her face, hoping that the Gu family would have pity on her and rent her an acre or two of medicinal fields.

The Gu family's medicine field is only over 80 acres, and if she divides her two acres, there will definitely be others who have less than two acres. The villagers were unhappy, saying that she had been suspended, not from Qingshan Village, and wanted to take advantage of Qingshan Village. Others dug up all the things she had done to the Gu family's brothers and sisters, and how she poisoned the Gu family. They called her shameless and dared to go to the Gu family. That is to say, Fifth Master Gu has a good heart, and if it was someone else, she would have been beaten out long ago.

Gu Ye did not have the mind to repay grievances with virtue, so Liu Shi naturally failed to lease the fields. Just when she was lying in the grass hut crying silently, Gu Qiao came over and said that she could rent two acres of medicinal fields for her.

In the spring, Gu Qiao, regardless of Liu's obstruction, followed Gu Wuye to try to plant five acres of medicinal materials. He is not used to farm work. Although the quality and yield of the medicinal materials are average, the harvested medicinal materials are also sold for fifty or sixty taels of silver.

It wasn't that he cared about the relationship between husband and wife, but that he couldn't grow the five acres of medicinal fields by himself, and he was afraid that the plants would go bad. Fifth Uncle and they would not accept the medicinal materials, so they wanted to let Liu's share some of them. He rented it to the Liu family and received 60% of the rent, which was 20% higher than the Gu family.

There are two reasons for Liu's staying in Qingshan Village. First, he can see his younger son often, and second, he thinks about whether he can get back with Gu Qiao. Although Gu Qiao's rent was high, she was still glad that he could give her hope of getting back on her feet when she was desperate.
