If he loses his errands, he can't get rid of Yang Jiang, and Yang Jiang will target him... Jiang Chengxiang looked at Jiang Zhen's eyes as if he had been poisoned.
Although he does not have the talent and financial resources to test for fame, he has always been proud of himself as a scholar, and feels that he will definitely be able to change his fate and never have to work in the fields, but now? He lost his errand, and later...
"Chengxiang, pack your things quickly and go down with me." Butcher Jiang came out of the house with a bamboo basket and a hoe on his back, saying as he walked.
When Jiang Zhen left home, he injured his leg with a bamboo pole. Although the injury would not kill him, the injury and the lack of sleep for a few days made him sick. The energy of the day has not been very good, and I can't do the work in the field.
Originally, this was nothing. In the past, when he was busy with farming, he also suffered from old problems such as back pain, but the farm work at home was never delayed. After all, his eldest family was better than long-term labor.
Even if they hired a long-term worker, they could not ask the long-term worker to help them work at night, but they could let Boss Jiang go to work at night.
But now, the boss of his family has run away.
Butcher Jiang is old and lacks energy, so his work is actually justifiable, but... Jiang Chengcai, the most powerful person in his early twenties, is actually slower than Butcher Jiang!
Jiang Tu naturally wanted to reprimand him, but he did not enter the oil and salt, and later he simply hid in the house and refused to go out!
In the past, Mr. Jiang was too tired to wake up a little later, and Mrs. Jiang could tell the whole village that he was lazy and how bad he was, but it was Jiang Chengcai... Jiang Chengcai cried and complained about being tired, and Mrs. Jiang was reluctant to let him go to work. live.
In the end, Mrs. Jiang followed Butcher Jiang to the ground in person. Not only that, but when others came to ask her why Jiang Chengcai didn’t come to work, she kept talking to Jiang Chengcai, repeatedly saying that Jiang Chengcai was not feeling well, that she was not come to work.
Believe it or not and don't say it, in this way, the Jiang family's land will not be planted for sure.
It is precisely because of this that the butcher Jiang called Jiang Chengxiang to work when Jiang Chengxiang had just returned.
Jiang Chengcai has always been lazy and slick, with thick skin, and he can't be easily called to work. Jiang Butcher is used to it, but Jiang Chengxiang... In Jiang Butcher's opinion, this third son is obedient and filial, and he is definitely willing to help Share it yourself.
Jiang Chengxiang has always performed well in front of outsiders and in front of his parents, and he does not shirk a little work at home, but in his heart, he is never willing to do farm work.
He didn't want to be a man like Boss Jiang!
Therefore, after Butcher Jiang spoke, Jiang Chengxiang did not answer, but stared blankly at Jiang Zhen not far away.
Butcher Jiang also saw Jiang Zhen now, and his face immediately turned gloomy.
"Butcher Jiang, you have given birth to two good sons, both of them are unwilling to work in the fields," Jiang Zhen looked at Butcher Jiang, and sighed, "Now you can still work, and you can support them, and in the future they will I'm afraid it's going to be a sad day."
This ancient time is not modern. There are machines, chemical fertilizers, and various pesticides. These days, farmers have to dig and harvest the fields themselves. They have to find ways to fill the fields with fertilizers. Get your hands on it...
The land in this place is fertile and the climate is good. The crops grow fast, but the weeds grow faster and there are many insects. Don't the people in this village have to go to the fields every day
But Jiang Lao Er Jiang Lao San... Those are the masters who refuse to take off their shoes and go to the paddy fields!
Especially Jiang Laosan, who had accidentally seen a leech crawling on Jiang Lao's thigh before, and he could not even eat because of nausea... I don't even think about the food and drink he usually eats and drinks.
Butcher Jiang's face darkened.
"Just these two sons... I think most of you have a desolate night scene." Jiang Zhen said very sincerely. He was telling the truth, but it was clear that others regarded him as a curse.
"You slaying a thousand knives, what nonsense are you talking about!? With you restraining me at home, I will have a bleak night. Without you, I will naturally be able to live a good life!" Mrs. Jiang also came out with a frame on her back. Just when I heard Jiang Zhen's words, I couldn't help cursing.
She has scolded Jiang Zhen for so many years, and it has become a habit. Although Jiang Zhen has dealt with it several times, she still does not behave well.
When Jiang Zhen came over before, he squeezed a lump of wet mud from the side of the road and threw it at her without hesitation.
He had a very good head, but he wanted to disgust Jiang Chengxiang's mud, but it smeared the old lady Jiang's face.
"Butcher Jiang, I'm also doing it for your own good. You should take good care of your two sons. Don't let the old man come and you can't even keep the family business." Jiang Zhen warned Butcher Jiang earnestly, and then he applied Shi Ran left.
When Jiang Zhen went to wash his hands by the river, Wang Haisheng scolded him: "That family is really abominable, they even scold you when they come up! You should beat them!"
"After all, people gave birth to me, so it's not easy to fight." Jiang Zhen said.
Wang Haisheng was startled, thinking about the previous situation, and thinking about Sun Xiaoshan's experience: "Is that old woman your stepmother?" He felt that Jiang Zhen was probably also treated harshly by his stepmother.
"No, my mother." Jiang Zhen said: "But people think I hate her, so I can't wait to kill me... She always felt that she had done me a great favor without drowning me in the toilet."
Wang Haisheng sighed.
He had met many ruthless people before, many of whom were thrown into the river when they had children and no money to support them, but he had never been able to understand such behavior, and now he felt sympathy for Jiang Zhen.
Jiang Zhen is a good person, he doesn't want to be treated like this by his parents...
Jiang Zhen is actually very sympathetic to Boss Jiang, and at this moment, he can only wish Boss Jiang a good pregnancy in the future.
After returning to the residence, Jiang Zhen took out all the money on his body.
Since he gave Wang Haisheng 20 taels, what he can use as capital is only a dozen taels of silver, which is a bit too little... After thinking about it, Jiang Zhen specially packed 200 catties of millet, and plans to get it to the seaside tomorrow. People change things.
It was already night after the busy work, Jiang Zhen cooked rice, steamed a salted fish and a bowl of garlic to fill his stomach, and then began to wait for night to fall.
He is going to leave early tomorrow, so he definitely can't go to sleep at Brother Zhao Jin's tonight, but he has to tell Brother Zhao Jin about what he wants to go out.
Entering Zhao Jinge's house with half a fish, Jiang Zhen kissed Zhao Jinge's face: "Brother Jin, I have something to tell you."
"What?" Zhao Jinge asked in a low voice.
"I want to go out." Jiang Zhen said, and then he said that he was going to enter the sea. The seaside is actually not far from here. I leave early in the morning tomorrow, and it is said that I can arrive in the afternoon, but it will take a day or two there to delay. He plans to find a place to sell the goods after he buys them. It must take four or five days.
"You should find something to do. It's good to sell seafood." Zhao Jinge nodded. He always felt that Jiang Zhen had nothing to do every day.
"I can't deliver food to you these few days, so you can take some from home to eat, don't go hungry." Jiang Zhen kissed Zhao Jinge's face again, and held Zhao Jinge's hand again.
"I haven't eaten before, and it's not that bad." Zhao Jinge said.
"But I can't bear to have you hungry." Jiang Zhen said.
In fact, Jiang Zhen is not the kind of person who is very good at telling love words, but Zhao Jinge has never heard of love words, but no matter what Jiang Zhen said, his reaction was exceptional.
At this moment, he was very happy.
Zhao Jinge has not traveled too far, and he doesn't know anything about selling seafood, but he knows that it will cost a lot outside... After thinking about it, he took out a small cloth bag from his bed and gave it to Jiang Zhen: "I I only have forty taels of silver on me, for you."
Most of Zhao Jinge's long-term labor money was given to his parents, but Zhao Liu's left a little for him to make some clothes and buy something for himself. He had never spent the money, he had saved it, there were more than four or two in total.
This money is not much, even quite small, but he is all of Zhao Jinge's belongings.
Jiang Zhen took the money in his hand and felt warm in his heart. After a while, he said, "You are so stupid."
Brother Zhao Jin frowned and looked at Jiang Zhen, not understanding why Jiang Zhen said he was stupid, but Jiang Zhen kissed him again: "But I like you like that."
When Zhao Jinge heard the word "like", his face turned red again.
Jiang Zhen didn't stay that day, and when he left, he took the money given by Zhao Jinge.
The next day before dawn, Jiang Zhen and Wang Haisheng set off. Before departure, Jiang Zhen locked his house and handed over the chicken he raised to Sun Xiaoshan to take care of it on his behalf.
After so many days, Sun Xiaoshan's illness has almost recovered, but Jiang Zhen didn't say a few words to him. It's true that this pair is too introverted and timid, but although he is a little introverted and timid, he is a good person. , just a little later, he instructed his eldest son to turn over all the land near Jiang Zhen's residence, helped Jiang Zhen grow vegetables, and even took the children to dig wild vegetables for Jiang Zhen.
Of course, he did all this while Jiang Zhen was not at home. When Jiang Zhen was at home, he basically hid in the house, and it was rare to meet Jiang Zhen and he didn't speak.
Jiang Zhen was a little helpless, but he had that kind of temperament, and he couldn't help it, and he estimated that this pair would be like this. I'm afraid it had something to do with the fact that he always lived on the boat before and didn't communicate with people very much.
Jiang Zhen set off very early, and as soon as the sky was bright, he had already arrived at the place Yang Jiang said.
At this time, people all got up early, so when they arrived, there were already people there. Jiang Zhen went up to chat with people, and looked at them all by the way.
In fact, Jiang Zhen did not completely trust Yang Jiang. He even prepared for Yang Jiang to set up a bureau for him to harm him. However, it turned out that he thought too much. The people in front of him who wanted to go to sea goods with him. , at a glance, you can tell that they are ordinary people who have never seen blood, and they are at best a little smoother.
And these days, the slick people think about going into business, and the vast majority of people only know how to work hard.
Jiang Zhen chatted with these people for a while, and a lot of news came out of them. When he knew what he wanted to know, he stopped talking and left Wang Haisheng to communicate with these people.
These people who plan to go to the sea to buy sea goods are not rich people, and they only have a cost of one or two taels. Even their boats are not as big as Wang Haisheng's boats. Wang Haisheng has no inferiority complex towards them, but he is very fast. into their conversation.
This time, a total of five boats set off together, and when everyone was together, they all headed towards the beach together.
Jiang Zhen has already learned rowing from Wang Haisheng, so he can help a little at this time, and let Wang Haisheng take a break, and his behavior makes Wang Haisheng even more grateful.
"Have you been to Fucheng?" Jiang Zhen rowed the boat for a while, handed the oars to Wang Haisheng again, and then asked.
"I've been there." Wang Haisheng nodded.
"What's it like over there?" Jiang Zhen asked again.
Wang Haisheng spoke slowly.
There is a reason why Jiang Zhen would suddenly ask about Fucheng. Those seafood merchants who went to buy goods with them would go back to the county to sell the goods. Everyone sold the same price. of…
This is actually quite good, but it is also destined that Jiang Zhen, a new entrant, will have difficulty making money, and it is even possible that he will not be able to sell the goods.
If I could go to Fucheng...
Jiang Zhen listened carefully to what Wang Haisheng said, and at the same time, a matchmaker came to the Zhao family in Hexi Village.
There are no matchmakers in this country, but some people like to connect people, and there are many marriages that have been concluded. Over time, if someone wants to propose a marriage, they will go to her and make peace. If they do, the new couple will marry. From time to time, I will invite her to a wedding wine, and then give her a piece of pork that weighs at least two kilograms, and it can't have bones.
Of course, if the man's family is rich, in addition to pork, he will usually give some money to the matchmaker.
This time, the person who came to Zhao's house was a woman named He Chunxiang who often served as a matchmaker in Hexi Village.
Zhao Liu had also dealt with this matchmaker before, and hoped that she could give Zhao Jinge a good marriage, but Zhao Jinge's conditions were too poor, so it never succeeded.
Later, Zhao Liu gave up the plan to tell her son about marriage, so she didn't go to matchmaker He. Because of this, she hadn't seen matchmaker He for a long time.
"Sister He, why are you here?" Zhao Liu was surprised when he saw his matchmaker, and then it turned into a surprise: "Could it be that someone is going to propose marriage to my brother Jin?"
