"Lanya, we're back!"
Shouya jumped off Old Yutou's donkey cart and yelled at Shen Ruolan in the crowd.
When Shen Ruolan heard the sound and looked over, she saw Shouya standing beside the donkey cart, dumping steamed buns with Shen Daqing and his wife from the donkey cart.
A donkey cart full of steamed buns, steamed buns, and pancakes, some with two-way noodles, some with pure white noodles, some with brown rice noodles, and sorghum noodles. Quite spectacular.
This is what Shen Ruolan sent Shouya and Daqing to the town to buy in the morning. In the morning, Shen Ruolan found that people from Banla Village had come to help her build a shed. She promised to treat them to eat delicious food yesterday, but they didn’t come. These old people must not be able to cook, and besides, there is no such food and rice at home, so they simply called Brother Daqing and Sister Qiuping, hired Lao Yutou's donkey cart, and took the thin girl to the town to buy steamed buns Steamed buns, the shops and small stalls selling steamed buns in the town are all rounded up, and a cart is full.
In the eyes of modern people, buns and steamed buns are nothing, but in the ancient times, especially when the countryside was so green, these old buns and steamed buns were no less than Kobe steak in the eyes of modern people.
After seeing these old steamed buns and steamed buns, the villagers who were still surrounding the shed rushed over in an instant, staring at the old steamed buns one by one, swallowing their mouths regardless of their appearance, and had a strong desire for food. Longing, let everyone dismiss their own image and dignity.
Shen Ruolan saw that everyone was eager to try and couldn't wait, fearing that they would cause looting and stampede, she hurriedly said: "Please line up well, don't rush or crowd, and the villagers who come to help can get two each."
However, no matter how she yelled, everyone was still rushing forward. Now, who wants to stand behind the line
Although there are two people per person, those who stand in the front and those in the back say that their heads are too big. For example, those who stand in the front can eat meat buns and big white steamed buns. If it’s gone, we can only get pancakes with brown rice noodles and sorghum noodles. Can this be the same
Furthermore, with so many people present, these steamed buns might not be enough. If not, wouldn't it be a waste of work
Everyone was still chaotically rushing forward, and some people even started gearing up, eager to grab the buns on the cart.
Seeing that the scene was out of control, Shen Ruolan jumped into the car and announced loudly: "Fellow folks, before eating, I have one more thing to inform you. My house is going to be rebuilt in the next few days. At that time, I will hire Everyone comes to work, 30 Wen a day, if anyone wants to do it, just queue up and sign up."
The meaning of this sentence is that it is obvious that if you don’t queue up, you will have no chance to earn the thirty cents. If you queue up, you can distribute steamed buns smoothly.
As soon as they heard that there was thirty cents to earn, the chaotic crowd immediately fell silent, and those who wanted to snatch the steamed buns also withdrew their hands and looked at Shen Ruolan quietly.
Someone questioned and said: "Lan Ya, it's true or not, don't lie to us!"
Shen Ruolan said with a smile: "I have made an agreement with the master who built the house. Three days later, he will come to draw the lines for me, and then start digging the foundation to build the house. Can you just talk about such a big matter?"
After a moment of silence, the uncle took the lead and said, "Lanya, why doesn't your father come back to take care of such a big deal like building a house? Let you, a little girl, take care of such a big deal at home. What if something goes wrong? all."
Before Shen Ruolan could speak, Qi Laishun took it over and said, "Brother, don't worry, Lanya is more effective than my second brother. With her in charge, nothing will go wrong." Qi Laishun seized every opportunity to please Shen Ruolan and never let up .
The uncle continued to ask, "Then how many rooms do you plan to build and how high is the courtyard wall?"
Shen Ruo said, "I plan to build two entrances, four rooms at the front and back, and two wing rooms at the east and west of the second entrance. If the courtyard wall is to be built, it should be 1.65 meters. In addition, a well should be drilled for easy drinking water."
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise when they heard so much!
The house with two front and back entrances, the east and west wing rooms, and the courtyard wall of 1.65 meters, darling, isn't this all as good as the landlord's house
Uncle Shen was also a little dazed: "Lan Ya, do you know how much money it costs to build such a house? Have you made a plan?" Or, do you have this old money
Shen Ruolan smiled and said: "Don't worry, sir, I have already planned it out, and there will be no mistakes."
When Uncle Shen saw that Shen Ruolan was confident, he nodded and stopped worrying.
Qi Laishun shouted: "Did everyone hear that? Lanya is going to build a big house. If you want to work, hurry up and line up. If you don't want to do it, just come and grab steamed buns!"
As soon as the voice fell, there was a 'bang', and the messy crowd rushed to Qi Laishun to line up, and Qi Laishun yelled while organizing: "Don't jump in the line, get out if you are disobedient, and Lan Ya will not be obedient." I can't use you for work, you are not allowed to line up, get out—"
Although Shen Ruolan didn't like Qi Laishun, she didn't refute him at the moment. What he said happened to be what she wanted to say, and she was thinking about how to say it without offending others, but by chance, he let him say it, and someone put a stick on her She will not refuse to be a gunman.
The few people who had already snatched the steamed bun regretted it to death, and wished they could send the steamed bun back again, but Lan Ya and Shouya were watching here, seeing that they snatched it just now, even if they sent it back, it would be too late , I had no choice but to stand aside dejectedly holding the buns and steamed buns, watching them line up helplessly.
After the queue was lined up, Shen Ruolan asked Shouya and Daqing to share the steamed buns with everyone, while she went into the room to get a pen and paper, and began to write down names.
Because there is such a thing as building a house and hiring people, the distribution of buns and steamed buns went very smoothly. Everyone was thinking about earning a salary of 30 yuan a day, so let alone give them two, just don’t give them anything. Hair, they are also happy.
Therefore, no matter what was given to them, be it steamed buns or pancakes, they happily accepted it.
Of course, there are no absolutes. No matter where you are, there will always be one or two people who are fussy and annoying.
When Qiuping's sister-in-law sent the basin to Yushi, Yushi quit: "I don't want brown rice pancakes, I want meat buns."
Qiuping said: "Oh, I'm sorry, auntie, the buns are all gone, only pancakes and steamed buns are left."
Yu Shi pointed to the big pot held by the thin girl in the distance, and said: "Isn't there still in that pot? You can go and replace two for me."
Qiuping frowned when she heard such a shameless request, but she still explained very gently, "That's the thing, Auntie. If everyone chooses, the steamed stuffed buns will be gone long ago, so wouldn’t those in the back be at a disadvantage?”
Yu Shi curled her lips, "That's someone else. I'm a relative of Lan Ya, and my sister is Lan Ya's aunt. I don't believe that if I, an elder, wants two buns, can Lan Ya not give them?"
Qiuping was speechless. They were all from the same village, and they could almost all be considered relatives. How many people in this long group were not related to Lan Ya? It's just that she has a big face and can give up her face to talk about her relationship.
"Auntie, this is really not good. If the rules are broken, we won't be able to send them later."
Seeing Qiuping's refusal to be accommodating, Yu was unhappy, "If you don't give me a change, then you can post it elsewhere, not here, and I don't need you. I'll wait for Shouya to come over."
Qiuping chuckled and said, "Okay, then you can wait, auntie." After speaking, she carried the big basin and continued to post.
Shouya had seen this scene a long time ago, sneered twice, and deliberately avoided her when posting, Yushi hurriedly stopped her and said, "Oh, Shouya, I haven't posted yet, I've been standing here waiting for a long time , I have cramp in my calves, why don't you send it to me?"
As the thin girl walked back, she said in a low voice, "We each wrapped one piece, and your piece was wrapped by Qiuping's sister-in-law, so it's none of my business."
"Hey, hey, you can't say that, I'm also here to help with the work, why don't you give me food!" Yu Shi saw that there were not many buns in the thin girl's basin, and was anxious shouted.
The thin girl sneered and said, "Who said you won't be given food? Didn't Qiuping's sister-in-law give it to you just now? Didn't you want it yourself?"
"That's because I don't want pancakes, I want steamed stuffed buns." Yu said confidently.
Shouya became angry, "We have sent so many people, no matter how we send buns and pancakes, they are always catching up with what is, and no one has figured it out. Why do you have so many things? If you all choose buns , won’t those who line up behind suffer a disadvantage?”
After finishing speaking, continue to send her, and ignore her no more.
Yu Shi saw the thin girl and ignored her, and the steamed stuffed buns in her basin were about to bottom out, so she straightened her neck and shouted at Shen Ruolan anxiously: "Lan Ya, what's going on, I'm getting up too Those who come here early in the morning to help with work, why don't you send me something to eat?"
Shen Ruolan glanced at her indifferently, Yu Shi came early in the morning, but she didn't watch her doing any work, she just watched her chatting with others, so she was ashamed to be picky at this moment The picky ones want buns, and their faces are big enough.
Shen Ruolan chuckled and said, "Auntie, I don't even know you're here to work unless you tell me. Since everyone started working, I just watched you stand aside and chat with others, and I didn't even see what you were doing. ?”
Xiao Yu didn't expect Shen Ruolan to be able to see her with so many people, so she blushed and argued, "I want to do it, but there are too many people doing it, so they push me aside, I want to do it." Didn't do it either!"
"So, you just didn't do it?" Shen Ruolan asked with a half-smile.
"..."
Yu Shi blushed and couldn't say anything, and someone in the queue immediately laughed: "Those who worked hard didn't pick and choose, what is she doing? She ran away without doing any work." I really don't know how to pick and choose."
"That's right, if I hadn't worked, I wouldn't have the nerve to stand here. I really don't know why her face is so thick-skinned."
"Look, she's still queuing up to build a house like her, and she's still waiting to come and eat and die..."
Yushi's face turned red and white after being picked up by everyone, and seeing that the buns in the thin girl's basin were gone, and there were not many left in Qiuping's basin, she walked over quickly, stretched out her hand and said, " Forget it, I won’t pick any more, just give me two pancakes and just two pancakes.”
Qiuping's sister-in-law turned around and turned the basin to one side, "I'm sorry, auntie, I finished sending out your side, now it's my turn here, if you want pancakes, just wait and see if there are any pancakes." I'll give you the rest, if there's nothing left, there's nothing I can do."
As he spoke, he quickly sent out the remaining pancakes.
Yushi saw that the basin in Qiuping's hand was empty, and then looked back at Shen Daqing's basin, and there was nothing left. Only then did she realize that she had nothing left after queuing for so long, and stomped her feet in anger.
However, what made her even more angry was that after Shen Ruolan finished recording the list of workers who built the house, she published it again, fearing that some would be missed, but there was no her in it, not even his man.
Yushi went to Shen Ruolan angrily to argue, "Lan Ya, it's fine if I didn't give me dry food just now, but why isn't I among the people working here? Not even my Shitou father, and the two of us arranged together. Is the team playing us for so long?"
Although Shen Ruolan doesn't like Yu Shi, but considering that they all live in a village, she saves some face for her: "Aunt and my uncle (Yu Shi's man) are not workers, so we should stay at home Stay."
Yushi didn't get any dry food, and now he can't even do his work, his reason was burnt out by anger, and he said arrogantly: "That's no good, we have been in line for such a long time, if you say you don't need us, then don't use us Huh? You have to give us an explanation today!"
Shen Ruolan thought that there was no need to save face for her with her messy and obstinate appearance, and said with a smile, "Well, hehe, I don't want to find someone who is cheating, cheating, and has a lot of things to bother me. Just because this happened to you today, I can't use you. Are you satisfied with this explanation?"
"That's right, just like you, let alone Lan Ya, no one will take you."
"It's Lan Ya who pays to hire people. If they say they use you, they will use you, and if they say they don't need you, they won't use you. Why are you not convinced?"
Everyone was chattering, all accusing Yu Shi, Yu Shi was so angry that he almost vomited blood, pointed at Shen Ruolan and said angrily: "Okay, you Shen Lanya, you will go crazy after earning two dollars. I don’t know who I am anymore, just wait for me!”
After speaking, he left angrily.
Her man is an honest man, he always obeys her, but she is the only one who follows her lead. Seeing her leave, he also quietly left.
Shen Ruolan didn't care either. After announcing the list of hired workers, everyone dispersed.
Those hired villagers were so happy that they couldn't find the north. When the family was out of food, their children were so hungry that they cried and their wives cried every day. It was a life-saving job for them to be able to give them this job!
Everyone is very grateful to Shen Ruolan. In fact, the people hired by Shen Ruolan are not all able-bodied and middle-aged workers, many of them are old and weak, and there are also many women. The reason why they are hired is not for others , it is because these people have helped the original Shen Lanya to some extent in the past, and Shen Ruolan's doing this can be regarded as repaying the past benefactors for the original Shen Lanya!
Out of gratitude to Shen Ruolan, many hired villagers offered to help Shen Ruolan plant greenhouses, and they didn't need money, just helping her for nothing.
Shen Ruolan also wanted to finish planting the greenhouses earlier, so she accepted everyone's kindness and asked everyone to help them plant five greenhouses.
These five greenhouses grow many kinds of crops, one of which grows cumin, one grows peppers, one grows persimmons, one grows cucumbers, and the last one is very mixed, with seven or eight kinds: corn, cabbage, spinach, coriander , stinky vegetables, water radishes, etc... ”
Everyone collected firewood and the flames were high. With the help of many villagers, the five greenhouses were planted in one afternoon.
Shen Ruolan looked at the greenhouses that had been planted, and secretly prayed in her heart that she hoped that the experiment would be successful this time. If it was successful, she would be able to plant and promote it on a large scale next year, and she would be able to become a comfortable landlord.
Another happy event is that the chickens in the backyard of the house opened their crotches, five of the eight hens started to lay eggs, and the geese also started to lay eggs. During the few days when Shen Ruolan was not at home, Shouya took the goose Eggs were picked up and stored in the kitchen, I was not willing to eat any of them, I kept them for Lan Ya.
Shen Ruolan didn't eat these eggs either, and planned to save them up to hatch more chickens and geese.
