Husband and wife ancient struggle plan

Chapter 28

  It was already bright, and the sun pierced through the window and pierced Lu Yang's eyes before he woke up.

Chatted too late last night, after Tian Tian fell asleep, he who had always slept well suddenly suffered from insomnia. He stared at the curtain on the top of the bed and only fell asleep in the middle of the night. Luckily, Lu Yang has developed a good habit now. I am used to getting up early, but today I can't help getting up late.

Opening his eyes, he felt that there was no one around him. The industrious young man woke up early. Not only did he prepare breakfast in the kitchen, but he also put wash water in the room for Lu Yang, and found clean clothes for him. bedside.

There was a smile on Lu Yang's face, and he got up from the bed cheerfully. It's a good life to have a younger brother. He finally got rid of the single dog again, and he can live the good life in thatched cottage again, even if he doesn't have a wife and a younger brother. Life is beautiful too!

But soon, Lu Yang couldn't be happy anymore, because that cousin Tianba who always cheated on him hadn't left yet, this guy is very thick-skinned! ! !

And staring at his pair of dark circles under the black eyes, his face was tired, and he finally came out of the room with an 'over-indulgence' look, Zhang Tianba showed a sympathetic look.

On the second day after the couple got married, the husband and wife looked exhausted, but when they arrived at Lu Yang's place, they changed their roles. This brother Lu's health is too bad. He became like this in one night. How can he treat his cousin in the future? 'Happy' life...

Zhang Tianba is a straightforward guy, he has everything he thinks written on his face, and his expression of 'you're not good enough' made Lu Yang's head full of black lines, there is no man in the world who would be happy when people doubt him Some ability!

But our blunt cousin Tianba leaned into his ear and whispered, "Brother Lu, your body is too bad, you'll be like this overnight, no, you need to exercise..."

Lu Yang took a deep breath and tried his best. Comfort myself in my heart, he and my little brother are acting! It's not that he can't do it! You don't need to be a bull to know about whether you are a man or not! ! !

Instead of getting entangled with Zhang Tianba, what Lu Yang wants to know most now is why Zhang Tianba hasn't left yet. Although Zhang Tianba doesn't farm in the village, he wants to go to the town to make money. Is this bandit very busy recently? My cousin's husband and wife life has to be taken care of...

"Brother, cousin will take us to buy a donkey later..." Tian Tian, ​​who was always blushing, replied, although the two are small, there are few people in the room Quiet and good hearing, he could hear the two of them whispering about the question of whether men are men or not.

"Buy a donkey?? Isn't the time for livestock trading in the town not yet?"

"The day for buying and selling livestock in the town has not yet arrived, but there must be someone in this village. Let's go to the village chief and ask, it's in the village. It's cheaper..."

Zhang Tianba patted Lu Yang on the shoulder and said with a smile, when he got up in the morning, he asked Tian Tian a lot of questions. future life.

After all, Lu Yang didn't seem to have any money. Not only did he help provide the house, but he didn't have any land. He didn't object to his cousin marrying a poor boy, but it wouldn't work if his cousin died of starvation.

So after thinking about it for a few days, Zhang Tianba still planned to suggest that the two of them buy a few acres of land. Since Lu Yang could give his cousin a jade pendant of ten taels of silver, there should still be enough money to buy a few acres of land, right? There is a field and the two of them will not lack food and drink in the future.

But Zhang Tianba really didn't expect that Lu Yang not only had money to buy fields, but also planned to buy a donkey. I won't be hungry anymore.

But what made Zhang Tianba a little worried was that Lu Yang had money but still didn't plan to buy a field. He was still worried when he heard Tian Tian said that the two were going to do business as a peddler.

After all, the income of being a shopkeeper is not stable, and the land is very important to the people here, so when Tian Guilan rented out the land left by the Zhang family, it was not to sell it directly to save trouble.

"Brother Lu, I just heard from my cousin that you are not going to buy a field to be a salesman? This is not possible. You can do business, but this field must be bought by the end of the year after you earn money, otherwise you will be with me in the future. What does my brother eat and drink..."

"Brother Zhang, don't worry, I just don't have enough money now, this year I went to the countryside to earn money, and next spring I will buy farmland..."

Lu Yang nodded, he didn't plan to sell the farmland himself , but when he left, he would buy some fields for his little brother, settle his little brother well, and then leave.

Seeing that Lu Yang promised that he had a plan for his future life, Zhang Tianba felt relieved. After lunch, he took Lu Yang and the two of them to Zhangjiacun's house. The village chief knew who would sell livestock.

When they arrived at the village's house, the village head had just had lunch and was resting in the yard, and the village head's wife was cleaning up in the kitchen. When he heard that Lu Yang was here to buy a donkey, the village head, Old Man Chen, was shocked.

"Lu Xianggong, you... you want to buy a donkey? It's not worth nearly twenty taels..." It's

not that the village chief looks down on Lu Yang, it's because it's too expensive to buy a livestock. The new Lu Xianggong doesn't look like a guy rich.

But when he saw Lu Yang nodding without any pressure and taking out more than twenty taels on the spot, old man Chen was surprised again, but he was relieved.

"Mr. Lu, it may be difficult for you to buy a donkey. No one in our village and the surrounding villages wants to sell a donkey, but the Lian family in the east of the village has a horse mule to sell. If you want it, I will take you there now. ..."

Livestock are precious, and this countryman's family will not sell livestock unless it is absolutely necessary, especially donkeys and cattle that have grown up and can work.

The horse mule is also a good thing. In fact, compared with the donkey, the mule can not only work, but also eat less. It is a kind of labor animal that saves food and can do work, but it has a fatal flaw, that is, the horse mule cannot breed offspring.

Therefore, although people in the village know that mules are actually better than donkeys at work, they generally do not choose to buy mules, because donkeys breed offspring and the family can always have donkeys, but mules can only use this one, and the price is low. More expensive than a donkey.

However, this is not a problem for Lu Yang. The salesman business he wants to do needs this kind of livestock that are better at pulling carts and easier to raise.

The Lian family who wanted to sell the mules used to be a wealthy family in the village, but the man of the Lian family was not a good guy a few years ago. He sold his younger brother to the Hualou, and even brought a woman with him with the family money. He ran away, leaving behind a woman with a medicine jar and a daughter who was only 9 years old at the time.

If this horse mule hadn't been borrowed from Lian's mother-in-law's natal family the day the Lian family's man ran away, it would definitely not have been spared, but now that the Lian family's life is hard, this mule cannot be kept.

Next to Zhang Tianba, when he heard that the Lian family was going to sell mules, his eyes suddenly flashed anxiously, "Village chief, what happened to the Lian family to sell mules? Doesn't his family just rely on this mule to lend to the villagers for work? Do you live on money?"

"Oh, it's not a good thing that the man from the Lian family did. When he left, he not only sold brother Lian, but also sold the second girl to a family in the Lower East Village. To be a child bride..." The

village chief's face was not good, and the village chief's wife who had just walked out of the kitchen ran out and spoke.

"It's really a crime. At that time, the family thought that Erya was young and didn't come to the door. They just waited for the Lian family to raise the girl before taking her back. Now that Erya is fourteen, it's time to find her in-laws. A few days ago That day, the family came to the door with the deed of sale..."

"If my old man hadn't been there at the time, the second girl would have been taken away, but the deed of sale was a pledge, and if the second girl of the family didn't come over, she would have been taken away." I have to pay five taels of silver to others, that is, the money that the second girl sold her body back then, even the family's property can not afford to pay, so I have to sell the mules..."

The village head's wife was talking, and the old man Chen also nodded beside him, and sighed to Lu Yang, "Mr. Lu, you have heard about the family situation, so I can't tell you the price of this mule. If you want it, you still have to buy it." According to the price in the town, it would cost twenty taels..."

Generally speaking, it would be cheaper to buy things in the village, but it would be cheaper for the folks in the big hometown, but even the family is in a difficult situation, so the old man Chen is not willing to help cut the price.

Twenty taels of mules are not cheap, and they are almost worth the price of farm cattle, but old man Chen did not lie about the price, and the price of mules in the town is also the same.

Lu Yang nodded, "Village chief, twenty taels is twenty taels, I'll buy this mule..."

"That's fine, I'll take you there right away!"

Seeing Lu Yang nodding his head readily, old man Chen immediately put down his things He was about to take someone to Lian's house, when Zhang Tianba heard Lu Yang's voice and showed a relaxed expression on his face, urging the village chief to hurry up.

The Lian family lived in the east of Zhangjia Village, not far from the village chief's house. They walked for about a quarter of an hour before they saw the Lian family's house.

Unlike Zhang's house built with stone and tiles, Lian's yard is the same as most people in the village, with a thatched roof with mud walls, even simpler than that kind of house with earth walls, and the walls are cracked.

This is not the house before the Lian family. The good house before the Lian family was sold by the man who ran away with the field. This house was a house that no one wanted in the village before. The village chief decided to clean it up and let the orphans of the Lian family help The widowed mother lives.

Along the way, Lu Yang noticed that Zhang Tianba's expression was very anxious, and Tian Tian also noticed that his cousin, who was fine before, now had an expression as if something big happened to make him worry.

When they arrived at Lian's house, they knocked on the door, and when they saw the person who opened the door, they suddenly realized.

The person who opened the door of this company was none other than the beautiful little brother that the two of them saw in the town last time that cousin Tianba secretly met!
