Chapter 2121 Settlement and Ning Ji Coming to the Northwest [3]
Uncle Qin said: "Your brother-in-law has been studying since he was a child. He has a good temperament, but he is too dependent on women. He feels that as a scholar, he should concentrate on learning, and your sister, as a woman, should make money for him to study. You have to serve him as a slave, and..."
Just like your biological father.
Widow Xiao said that the man also had the same virtue, so Widow Xiao had developed a skill that allowed her to raise several children after their biological father passed away.
Other women wouldn't have such ability.
"Sluggard, bad, bad, bad!" Brother Xiaogui suddenly shouted.
Uncle Qin smiled: "Yes, it's not good to be lazy. Brother Xiaogui must work hard so that he can have food."
Brother Xiaogui listened to Uncle Qin the most, nodding his head and saying, "Yeah, I'm not lazy, work and eat."
Then he said: "Grandpa, I'm thirsty."
Uncle Qin took out his water bag, fed Brother Xiaogui water, and carried him on his back. After a while, Brother Xiaogui fell asleep.
Uncle Qin said: "Your brother-in-law is not bad in nature. If something happens to him, he understands the severity and knows how to protect his family. As long as he keeps practicing, he can still become a master."
The young Marquis felt ashamed of him. Seeing that he was getting along well with the Xiao family, he said something about giving the Xiao family a chance.
He didn't want the Xiao family to live in ignorance, so he planned to train them and let them do decent jobs when they had the opportunity. As for how far they could go, it was up to them.
After hearing this, Xiao Chengju nodded and said: "Brother-in-law is indeed not bad at heart, but he just can't bear the trouble. If it weren't for my father, my sister would be doomed."
He remembered that Sister Xiao was snatched away and none of them had the ability to save her.
Uncle Qin saw that he was in a daze and slapped him on the head: "Why are you so stunned? Look at the road. It's dark, but don't plant in the fertilizer pit. It will stink to death for the whole family."
After the sorghum was harvested, soybeans had to be planted, so fermented fertilizer was piled in the pit next to the field to be used for soybean planting.
And because of the use of fermented fertilizer, the yield of this crop of sorghum has increased.
After all the sorghum was harvested and all the sorghum ears were rubbed and dried, the good news came out that the maximum yield per mu was 700 kilograms.
"Seven hundred kilograms. It's really seven hundred kilograms. It's sun-dried. If it's not sun-dried, it won't go up to nine hundred kilograms!"
The relatives in the health center were very happy and reported their sorghum production one after another. But this time, Widow Xiao's family was proud and proud.
Widow Xiao was carrying Xiao Qingyun on her back, standing next to a pile of dried and bagged sorghum, shouting at the top of her lungs: "Listen, my family has harvested a total of seven thousand kilograms of sorghum. Seven thousand kilograms are the grain collected by our health center. The most families!”
Sister Xiao followed: "Not only that, in addition to 7,000 kilograms of sorghum, my family also has an acre of wheat, which has also been harvested, at least 600 kilograms!"
The old wife said: "Sister, don't brag. The wheat here can yield 600 jins per acre? It would be good to have 400 jins of wheat when dried. Do you think this is the south?"
Moreover……
"Your family has so much food because there is a large population and a lot of land. My wife is kind to your family and gives you more fertilizer, so your family can harvest so much food."
Sister Xiao hummed.
Widow Xiao was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and said confidently: "What, are you jealous? Madam is my niece, why don't you give us more fertilizer?"
The old Bao's wife was a little disdainful. How could she be jealous of the Xiao family?
"I just want to remind you not to get carried away, so as not to cause trouble for the madam."
Dang, Dang, Dang!
The old wife banged the gong and said to the relatives present: "Listen up, everyone, although the harvested food is a lot, you can't eat it randomly. You have to hand over two parts, one part will be used to make military rations for the camp, and the other part will be given to the camp." The people who migrate here eat it.”
"Those who have migrated have arrived at the gathering place in Mu County, and many men have signed up to join the army. Now that they have joined the army, their relatives can come to the guard station. Our chief, Liang Wei, has been assigned a lot of people, so we have to keep food to feed them. You know ?"
Added another sentence: "It's okay if you don't know. If you eat food indiscriminately and your family will run out of food in winter, you can find a way to find food yourself. Don't ask my wife for help. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
The madam is pregnant, and she must take good care of these shrews, lest they eat so much that they end up running out of food and go to find the madam, causing her to have fetal convulsions.
"Hey, I got it!"
The old Bao's wife was quite fierce, and there was a Gaofen Niang carrying a machete standing next to her, so the relatives didn't dare to quarrel.
Speaking of Gaofen Niang, this girl has become much prettier recently, and the scars on her face have faded a lot.
A woman was curious and asked boldly, but Gaofen didn't hide it and said, "My wife gave me the scar removal cream. After using it for a few months, the scars faded away."
Scar removal cream is very expensive, and she didn't want to use it at first, but the wife said that young girls should be kind to themselves and treat it when they have the chance to avoid regrets later.
She used it.
She was very grateful, so she wanted to tell everyone about her kindness to her.
"Ms. Fan, stop staring at Fen Niang's face. Can you still tell if there is a nugget of gold? Come here quickly and count the kilograms of food that your family has handed over." Mr. Lu's wife called to Mrs. Fan.
Mrs. Fan hurriedly took her children over and watched as people weighed the food at home, calculated the total output, and then calculated the part that needed to be handed over. After deducting the two parts of the food that had to be handed over, the remaining 30% of the food belonged to her family.
After this deduction and deduction, in the end, the five members of Fan's family got a thousand catties of food.
One thousand kilograms of sorghum is really not enough to feed five people. However, this year they can grow a crop of soybeans, sell medicinal materials, and work in brick kilns to earn money in exchange for food. Therefore, Mr. Fan is not worried that his family will starve to death.
"Huang Dali's family, it's your turn. Come quickly to weigh, distribute and hand over the grain."
"Jin Xiuxiu, we're at your house, come here quickly."
"Little Axe, Pan Little Axe, it's your turn, stop playing and come here quickly!"
The threshing floor of the guard house was very lively. The relatives and relatives were weighing and distributing grains, and everyone was beaming with joy.
This was a big job, and it took two days to finish.
Two days later, Qin Sanlang came back, bringing a group of new soldiers and new relatives.
There were a lot of people, more than 300 soldiers and family members.
These people had been traveling for months. They were dark and thin, and they looked like victims fleeing famine.
"Get in line and register into the guardhouse according to the roster!" Qin Sanlang didn't want to tire Gu Jinli, so he came to place these people in person.
Qin Sanlang's aura was very bluffing, and on the way, Qin Sanlang stabbed an old gangster who was talking obscenely to a young girl and making disgusting gestures.
In the end, the old gangster's recruit son and his family were tied up on the spot and sent back to the gathering place in Mu County. Chang Liang Wei did not want such people.
Therefore, no one dared to be disobedient at this time, and the arrangements were very smooth. After more than an hour, the new soldiers and new relatives were settled.
But when he was about to go back to the house to look after Gu Jinli and the child, the girl he had helped came over.
She washed her face and combed her hair. She held an amulet in her hand and handed it to Qin Sanlang: "Sir, thank you for saving me. This is the amulet I have worn since I was a child. With it, I have been able to encounter many encounters." The noble man is out of danger... There are many wars here, and now I pass it on to you, praying for your safety. I will win every battle and rise to the top."
It is better to give away the amulet in public. If Qin Sanlang accepts it, the matter will be unclear.
Qin Sanlang was annoyed by these things the most. He sneered, pointed at the girl, and said to Cong Wenshan: "Tie up their family and send them back to the gathering place in Mu County. Chang Liang Wei doesn't want them!"
