Shen He immediately replied with a smile: "I have always regarded my second uncle as my father! When I grow up, I will naturally provide for my second uncle in old age! Although I am a girl, I can't let my second uncle grow old and become helpless. You have nothing to rely on, right?"
Aunt Huang said with a smile: "Shen He is indeed a conscientious person, and it's not in vain that your second uncle protects you so much. You two will live well in the future, and no one in the village will be able to bully you."
Shen He immediately smiled: "That's what Auntie said."
Uncle Wang and Shen He, a man whose wife died, and a child who left a female household alone in order to survive.
The two of them looked miserable together.
The premise is that you don’t want to look at such a large house.
People who used to see Shen He's jokes couldn't laugh now.
They may not be able to earn such a large house in their lifetime, let alone Shen He building it in only a few months?
When it comes to regrets, the ones who regret most are probably Shen He's uncle and his family.
On the day of the hotpot, the uncle's family also came and sat with the villagers.
Shen He was extremely kind to his uncle's family. He would rather not build a house than spend all his money to treat his uncle's illness. So now that Shen He's life is getting better, his uncle can't say anything. When the people in the village saw the regretful look in the uncle's and family's eyes, they immediately made fun of them and said, "Oh, it seems that Shen He's life is much better than that of the rest of us. Look at the three acres of land in the yard. Corn, it’s growing really well.
! If you had these three acres of land, your family would be able to have enough to eat this winter, right? "
Today's grain yield per acre is far from as high as in modern times. The yield per acre of one acre is only four to five hundred kilograms, and the yield of three acres of land is more than one thousand kilograms.
But don’t underestimate this more than 1,000 kilograms of grain, which is enough to feed a family for half a year!
If mixed with some other whole grains, it can last for more than half a year!
Especially these three acres of land were confined in the yard by Shen He Quan, so they were not harmed by livestock. Every piece of land grew perfectly, every piece of land counted, and they were all harvested.
Listening to the crowds of villagers, the uncle took a puff of dry cigarette without saying a word.
Countryside people cannot afford to smoke tobacco leaves. Many dry tobaccos are actually made of crushed straw and rolled up.
So when you smoke, the smoke is extremely strong. Seeing that her husband couldn't make a sound for a long time, the auntie had no choice but to do it herself and said: "Shen He has such a good fortune, we, the auntie, are naturally happy for her. She has a good life, can she still be alive? Can't forget her uncle
? "
"Hehehehe." The man just laughed and did not answer.
Shen He is now a single woman, so helping her is a sign of affection, but not helping is normal.
It’s just that no one would say these words.
The auntie looked at the three acres of corn in the yard with eager eyes. The autumn harvest was about to begin. If only she could borrow some grain from Shen He, this winter would be easier.
It was time for dinner, and plates of generous meals were put on the table one after another. All the helpers came on the table, and the banquet started lively.
Warming hot pot in the countryside is not so particular. The village chief and Li Zheng said a few words, and then the banquet started.
After finishing the meal, Shen He divided the remaining dishes into portions and asked the aunts and sisters-in-law who came to help cook today to each take a portion back.
Although they are all leftovers, this is already a good benefit for the villagers who have been deprived of oil and water all year round.
The aunts who helped happily went back with the leftovers shared by Shen He, and the lively house suddenly became deserted.
After Shen He and Uncle Wang returned all the borrowed tables, chairs and benches, it was already dark.
"Second Uncle, thank you very much for today." Shen He said to Second Uncle Wang, "It's so late, please stay here. I have many rooms here, so it's quite deserted for me alone."
Uncle Wang said with a smile: "I'm not tired. After today, you can officially have your own home. The corn is almost ripe. I'll help you harvest it in a few days."
Shen He paused, raised his little face, looked at Second Uncle Wang seriously, and said, "Second Uncle, I am serious. I truly treat you as my father!"
Uncle Wang's lips trembled, as if he was a little embarrassed.
He is two years younger than Shen He's father.
Being Shen He's father is indeed a matter of course.
These thoughts have always been in the hearts of the two of them. It was a bit embarrassing to be exposed for the first time. "Does the second uncle plan to live alone in the future?" Shen He continued: "If the second uncle plans to marry another daughter-in-law, just pretend I didn't say this. If the second uncle doesn't want to get married, then I will be your daughter-in-law. , I will support you until the end of your life.
Households cannot marry, but no one stipulates that they cannot do business or make money! When I make enough money, I will give my second uncle a good pension. "
Second Uncle Wang raised his hand and touched Shen He's head, and after a while he said, "Okay, Second Uncle will wait for you to take care of him in your old age."
The whole group reached a tacit understanding and laughed at the same time.
Time flies and it’s the day of autumn harvest.
The corn stalks in the field are visibly yellow.
Harvesting corn is not much simpler than planting it.
Second Uncle Wang was young and strong, and was very good at work. Shen He took in everything in three days.
All the sticks were dried and stacked in the basement storage room.
The straw has also been tied up and set aside for cooking on the kang.
Shen He's house is really not small.
Originally, I only planned to build three rooms, but later I had enough money to build two more rooms.
There are five rooms above ground, five rooms underground, plus two wing rooms, which makes twelve rooms.
In Shenjia Village, these are considered wealthy households!
Otherwise, the villagers would not run against Uncle Shen He's family.
Shen He's life was indeed good, even better than at his uncle's house.
Many people in the village secretly encouraged Uncle Shen He to borrow money and food from Shen He, but they made it clear when the family was separated that Shen He no longer had any responsibility to support the uncle's family.
The auntie spoke to Shen He once, but Shen He blocked her back lightly.
Shen He's reason was perfect.
She wanted to keep these three acres of land for herself and Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang hunts all year round and doesn't have much land, so three acres of land for two people is just enough.
After harvesting all the grain, Shen He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With the food in the warehouse, we finally don’t have to worry about stomach problems in the coming year.
Wen Zhizhou's servants took the time to come twice, took away the drawings from Shen He's hand, and paid the retouching fee.
After going back and forth, Shen He and Wen Zhizhou became familiar with each other.
On this day, it was time for Wen Zhizhou to pick up the manuscript again. Shen He had just finished cleaning up the house and was about to process the game sent by Uncle Wang and give himself a snack when he heard the sound of a carriage outside the gate.
