In the Tang family in Pingshan village, people who are busy in the field can look up and see the people going to Zhao's house and the laughter coming from Zhao's house. Compared with the Tang family with the gate closed, there is a sharp contrast.
Dashan silently rowed and pulled the stones in the ground, picked out the large stones, gathered them together and then picked them out. This kind of work was not too tiring, but tedious. Those who will be lazy can be roughly cleaned up in another day, and the rest can be cleaned up slowly.
Others would occasionally say something that envied the Zhao family, not to mention anything else, the Zhao family could save a lot of taxes all year round after Zhao's youngest was admitted as a scholar, and he didn't have to do corvee. Someone suddenly mentioned: "Didn't the Zhao family just pay the money for the service? In a blink of an eye, Zhao Laosan was admitted as a scholar. It is said that his family no longer needs to serve corvee. Do you think their family will go to the Yamen to get the money back?" ?”
Although they were envious of the Zhao family's current situation, some people laughed loudly when they heard this. No one in the village knows what Zhao Laoma's urine is, and it is very likely that he will really do it.
Dashan raised his head and glanced in the direction of the Zhao family, saw Li Feng who was also working in a muffled voice beside him, and called him in a low voice: "Hey, boy Feng, can you tell me if my brother will feel uncomfortable seeing this situation? And this Zhao Will the family bully him on the door again in the future?"
Li Feng also raised his head and squinted his eyes to look out. At that moment, Da Shan couldn't tell what he felt, but he always felt that Boy Feng was too different from the fellows from the countryside, so he said, "It's just a scholar."
Hearing these words, Dashan Yagen shuddered, hissed, and his tone was so loud. To the villagers, the scholar was very prestigious and prestigious, and he was even more suspicious of what the boy Feng was doing before he came back. Even scarier than Mr. Yu Mu, Mr. Qian.
"Don't worry, a scholar can't do whatever he wants. Besides, even if he becomes an official, there will be those who will be dismissed or even killed, let alone just a scholar." Another cold voice.
Da Shan couldn't help feeling a bit of awe towards Boy Feng in his heart. It turned out that because of his brother's worries about Brother Ming, he also lost a little bit. He always felt that Boy Feng had the ability to protect Brother Ming. The Zhao family shouldn't ask for trouble and offend Boy Feng.
He was talking and his hands didn't stop. The two baskets were full of stones and were about to pick them up to the place where the stones were piled up. Uncle Zhao Liu drove an ox cart by the side of the road, and the working men shouted happily. Greeting: "Uncle Six is here again? We are waiting for you." They all work for wages, but this Uncle Zhao is strange, he does not come to help with Brother Ming's wages, every day after returning from town The bullock cart came over, and the bullock cart was used to transport the stones away one after another, which saved these men a lot of effort.
Originally seeing the excitement of the Zhao family today, I thought that the sixth uncle would pay more or less attention to that side, but now the situation is clear that the sixth uncle Zhao didn't even take a look, and immediately pulled the cow over when he came back. The grievances between Sixth Uncle and Zhao's family are well known in the village. After all, there is Da Lian's life in it, and it is reasonable for Sixth Uncle to find it hard to let go of these grievances. Not everyone takes brother seriously.
Uncle Zhao Liu laughed: "I'm here so I can make you lazy, okay, when the car comes, you can lift it up, and I'll pull it for you."
"Haha, thank you Sixth Uncle." In front of Sixth Uncle, no one mentioned the excitement of the Zhao family.
It was already afternoon, and although it was not yet summer, everyone was sweating profusely. Someone wiped the sweat off his head, glanced towards the courtyard, just in time to see the courtyard door opened from the inside, and immediately said happily: "Big fellow, the children have brought us food and drink."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over there. No, Da Mao from the Dashan family took the lead and carried a large jar of water, followed by Er Mao and Xiao Zhuzi, the grandson of the sixth uncle’s family, who jointly carried a large basket. After eating, the water is the heaviest, so it was carried by the oldest child. Behind it, a black and brown dog rushed out, stopped at the door and barked twice, and the last child came out with a cloth tiger in his arms. , is the younger brother of Tang Chunming's family.
Several children came to the work place with a dog. Tang Chunming stood at the door and didn't step forward to help. He just watched the children struggling to carry things. Put down the work in your hand and come to pick them up, first take the big jar in Da Mao's hand, and Da Mao is saying thank you to the man.
Although it was agreed that only wages and no food would be included, in the afternoon, Tang Chunming prepared steamed buns and water for delivery, and sometimes boiled some big bone soup. These things were prepared by him, Zhang Xiu and Wang Mo. Well, the men from Wang Mo's family also work here. When they were arranging people, they actually arranged the men from these two families without Tang Chunming's mention. Who made the elder brothers of the two families be better with Brother Ming? Nothing to say.
The men of Wang Mo's family were much more lively than Da Shan, and they smiled even to Tang Chunming, saying thank you Tang Chunming for taking care of his brother, which made Tang Chunming amused.
A few children were smiling and calling for people with empty hands, and Da Mao and Er Mao were especially happy, because Uncle Feng gave them a vacation these two days. They used to practice martial arts with Uncle Yu Mu, and most of them were learning and having fun, but when Yu Mu left and it was Li Feng's turn to take over, their life was not easy. Uncle Feng was not as talkative as Uncle Yu, and he stipulated how long to squat Don't be lazy at all. Da Mao gritted his teeth and persisted when he was sensible, but Er Mao wanted to back off. At first, Zhang Xiu felt sorry for Er Mao who was too young and practiced martial arts too hard. He asked Da Shan to talk to Feng Boy, but after Da Shan talked to Li Feng, They resolutely sent Er Mao to Li Feng to be disciplined by him. After being disciplined by Li Feng for a few times, the person they envy most now is A Lin. Why is Uncle Feng treating A Lin so well but being so cruel to them! They also want the Trojan horse that Uncle Feng made for Ah Lin, which is as big as him. Uncle Feng is too partial!
Seeing Li Feng now is not much better than a mouse meeting a cat. They just played tricks on their father, but when they saw Li Feng, they lost their voice and called out obediently.
Tang Chunming left a few children outside, and went back to the house by himself. Both Zhang Xiu and Wang Mo had washed their hands and put the remaining steamed buns on the table, and started eating. None of them went to Zhao's house. Wouldn't it be poking Brother Ming's heart to go to Zhao's house to join in the fun? It was Mrs. Shen, his family had nothing to do as Lizheng, but Mrs. Shen was lucky, and went to the town early in the morning to visit his pregnant brother.
Zhang Xiu handed Tang Chunming a steamed bun, and put another bowl of soup in front of him. Tang Chunming tore up the steamed bun and ate it, saying, "I just looked around at the door. The Zhao family is really lively. The carriage stopped at the door." There are quite a few of them. Hey, I said, what are your expressions? The scenery of the Zhao family belongs to the Zhao family, so what does it have to do with me? Even if Zhao Laosan passed the examination and became an official, I still live the same way." See two Looking cautious, Tang Chunming waved his hand indifferently. He really didn't take it seriously. He was just a scholar. At the beginning, he graduated from a key university. His younger brother Chunrong was also good at studying, not worse than Zhao Laosan. Much stronger than him.
"You, I really don't know what to say about you. You see, the wind direction in the village will change after the Zhao family has a scholar. In the future, the Zhao family's mothers don't know what kind of words they will release to slander you. Reputation, although we all know the situation of their family and what kind of people they are, it is inevitable that some people will pour dirty water on you in order to hold up Mrs. Zhao and say bad things about you." Zhang Xiu worried, and did not expect that Zhao Laosan really passed the exam Oh, I suffered a loss at Brother Ming's hands before, can I let it go with Zhao's temperament
Tang Chunming sneered and said, "I'll grow my vegetables and live my life behind closed doors. I don't care what they say. Besides, Zhao Laosan is a scholar who has more face than anyone else. Don't worry, it's really good to have him here. Don’t dare to do anything, otherwise it will ruin his reputation as a scholar, and at most let them show off their tongues.” These are really painless to him Tang Chunming.
"You are kind-hearted." Wang Mo said, seeing that Tang Chunming really didn't take it to heart, but it was the best way, as it would be bad for the body if he didn't take it to heart.
Before the day's workers left, Tang Chunrong hurried to Pingshan Village. Naturally, they got the results of the college examination in the school. Seven or eight children from Ping'an Township took the college exam. In the end, only two scholars passed the exam, and one of them was Zhao Pingchuan from Pingshan Village. Tang Chunrong became anxious when he heard it. He knew nothing more than the dispute between the Zhao family and his elder brother. The elder brother who bullied him rushed to Pingshan Village after school, and asked someone to bring a message to his mother, so he stayed in Pingshan Village tonight.
"Brother, brother, are you alright?" Tang Chunrong, who was sweating from running, asked in a panic when he saw Tang Chunming.
Tang Chunming caressed his forehead, everyone regarded him as fine porcelain that could not be touched or dropped? He poked his forehead angrily and said: "Isn't it just that the youngest of the Zhao family passed the exam as a scholar? I'm still waiting for you to come back from the exam three years later. Really, what's the big deal about being a scholar? If you really I'm worried that the Zhao family will bully others, well, I'll find a candidate to come back and overwhelm him."
Wang Mo went back to take care of the children, Zhang Xiu was still there, and he burst into laughter when he heard Tang Chunming's big talk.
Tang Chunrong blushed with embarrassment, but she also pondered in her heart that if she wanted to really dominate the Zhao family, she had to pass the exam higher than Zhao Laosan, so she decided to become even more angry, and she couldn't lose to Zhao Laosan, a gentle scum. Tang Chunrong looked down on Zhao Laosan at all: "Brother, just wait, I will pass the exam and support you!"
"Okay, that's called ambition. What's the matter in front of you? You'll know when you pass the exam and go out to see what you see. This kind of villain is not worth your time wasting on him. That little tail grabs a lot." Tang Chunming turned on the disciple mode.
Tang Chunrong was confused and didn't quite understand what his brother said. Tang Chunming persisted and said, "What do you think a villain like Zhao Laosan cares most about? What did I rely on to break away from the Zhao family?" of?"
"Fame?" Tang Chunrong came to his senses now.
"That's right, this kind of person has the best face. Although he is now a scholar, someone is willing to give him face, but when he meets someone like me who doesn't want to face and directly tear his face, he Zhao Laosan dare to touch me? Heck, it's not me Look down on him, but he has his weaknesses, and if he wants to continue on the way to the imperial examination, then he has to take his reputation into consideration and restrain his family. Anyway, I am also supporting his Zhao family Of flesh and blood."
Tang Chunming directly explained to Tang Chunrong that other people may have scruples and stay on the front line, but for him, what face and reputation is the most important thing, the more he cares about it, the more he will tie his hands and feet. Of course he If others are willing to use such things to restrain themselves, Tang Chunming can act unscrupulously. Anyway, his brother is afraid of what others will say, so at worst he packs up his things and leaves.
"Brother..." Tang Chunrong seemed to understand something, but felt a little sad in his heart. If he hadn't been able to protect his brother, his brother wouldn't have preferred to tarnish his reputation rather than compromise with people like the Zhao family.
"Frown at a young age, be careful to become a little old man, think so much about what to do, stay here with peace of mind when you come, I will cook something delicious for you in the evening, just in the morning I asked Uncle Liu to bring some meat back." Tang Chunming angrily stroked his younger brother's hair to get rid of the addiction of bullying him.
Tang Chunrong ran away angrily with his messy hair. If he hadn't worried about his brother's big belly, he wouldn't have resisted. Zhang Xiu watched it funny, and said to Tang Chunming that he didn't bully his brother like this.
At this time, Tang Chunming didn't realize the impact his words would have on Tang Chunrong's thinking in the future, and he turned his innocent brother into another path. Tang Chunrong asked himself repeatedly, what is his weakness? He doesn't want to be someone like Zhao Laosan, he doesn't need to care about superficial things, but his family, mother and elder brother are destined to become his weakness, so the only way to protect his weakness is to become stronger.

Anping County.
The county town got the results of the hospital examination one step earlier than the township. Teng Yu, who returned from the town earlier, was also a person who paid attention to the school test. Shopkeeper Chen also got the list of scholars in the school test early in the morning. When they saw the school test The name of the head of the desk was stunned for a while, rubbing his eyes, he really read it right.
Do you know who is the leader of this court trial? It was Mr. Tao, a scholar who had been to Tingjing Pavilion. At the beginning, shopkeeper Chen just wanted to spread the net to make Tingjing Pavilion a good name. Unexpectedly, he caught a big fish. Embarrassed and shy, shopkeeper Chen never expected his knowledge to be so good.
"Master, I'm going to find out where Mr. Tao is staying and send me a big gift?" Shopkeeper Chen suggested.
"Alright, but you don't need to bring up the original incident again. Please remember that Jingge should not treat the original incident as a kindness. You must remember that we are just buyers and sellers. We only pay the silver and deliver the goods for the sake of goodwill. Yuan, no matter who it is, we don't owe Tingjinge anything." Teng Yu beat Chen's shopkeeper, the most important thing for scholars is face, if people know that Tingjinge plays the role of benefactor, I'm afraid it's just It would cause that person's displeasure, but it would be detrimental to Tingjing Pavilion.
"Yes, young master, I've made a note of it." Shopkeeper Chen's heart tightened immediately. He really reported his intentions. It was they who supported Mr. Tao to get the result of the case. Otherwise, Mr. Tao's embarrassment I'm afraid that he can't even take the court exam, but as the young master said, if Young Master Tao really minds that they can judge him based on what happened back then, I'm afraid he will remember Ting Jingge in his heart, which will bring disaster instead.
So shopkeeper Chen just like the others, prepared a set of the Four Treasures of the Study and a letter of silver and delivered it to Mr. Tao's door. It was not prominent in the list of presents, but Mr. Tao came first after the entertainment. When they arrived at Tingjing Pavilion, they wanted to visit their owner to express his gratitude.

At Zhao's house, the bustling crowd dispersed. Mrs. Zhao drove Wang Chunhua to clean up the house, and Wang Chunhua also agreed with a smile. She didn't have any reluctance when she was ordered by Mrs. Zhao before, so she turned around and coaxed her son away. Going with Grandma, I pinched Zhao Mei’s younger brother and told him to do things quickly and not be lazy. After scolding Zhao Mei, I felt better. It’s not that I’m not angry at being treated like this by Zhao Mei, but for the sake of time. On a good day, he had to coax Old Mama Zhao well.
It's a pity that the money that was dug away by Mrs. Zhao makes my heart bleed just thinking about it.
Zhao Pingchuan sent the last guest back to the house, and started discussing his marriage with Mrs. Zhao. Today, Mr. and Mrs. Shen Dahu came to congratulate him, but both he and Mrs. Zhao could see the actual meaning. I want Zhao Pingchuan to be their brother-in-law.
"Ping Chuan, what do you think? What did the third uncle say?" Mrs. Zhao couldn't wait to see the third son come in and asked, the loose skin on his face was squeezed into a ball of flowers by him.
"Third uncle, the old man naturally agreed." Zhao Pingchuan poured a cup of tea and drank it himself. He didn't have time to take a good rest this day, and his voice was dry. "However, I don't seem to have heard much about it in the town. How about the elder brother who lived in Shen Dahu's house?"
Zhao Pingchuan was not like Zhao Laomao and third uncle who wanted to agree immediately, for fear that the marriage would be delayed and the Shen family would be changed, but Zhao Pingchuan lived in Dingzhou during this time and ate in Dingzhou. After seeing the prosperity of Dingzhou Prefecture, and having his classmates brought into the Dingzhou Prefecture among the children of superior backgrounds, it naturally broadened his horizons. It turned out that he had been sitting in a well and watching the sky, and the outside world was much bigger than he imagined. How could he be confined in such a small place? No matter how good the conditions of Shen Dahu's family are, in his opinion, they are just a little richer. effect.
He told the third uncle about this, and the excitement in the third uncle's heart cooled down a little. In his opinion, Zhao Laosan's future path may not be as simple as being a scholar. Then, as Zhao Laosan said, Shen Dahu's family can't do it at all. Helping Zhao Laosan to the officialdom, how could he let someone like Shen Dahu delay Zhao Laosan's future.
"It's easy," Zhao said, slapping her thigh. "Tomorrow, my mother will go to the town to inquire, and the town's matchmaker will always know the situation of Shen Dahu's brother. If their brother doesn't Well, bah! No matter how much dowry money I have, I don’t care too much!” Mrs. Zhao can be ruthless towards other people, and even she is reluctant to use the money, but he has true love for his third son and takes good care of him. Which one is not fine, even the silver is ranked behind the third son.
"That's fine, Mom will talk about it tomorrow after you find out more about it. Mom is also tired today, so go to rest early." He was also tired, with an expression of filial piety and consideration for Mom.
"The third son is still filial, not like your two angry brothers." Zhao Laomo took the third son's hand and began to complain when she got excited, "You don't know that during your absence, that broom star has done everything. What, now that you have finally passed the exam, you can support Grandma, just watch, tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, let's see how I deal with that bitch!"
That day when he was exposed in public for pretending to be ill, Mrs. Zhao lost all face and skin. Mrs. Zhao completely blamed Tang Chunming. If it wasn't for this broom star, how could he have fallen to the point where he was laughed at by the juniors and scolded by the third uncle? Dun, now that he is a talented father-in-law, who dares to laugh at him, even the third uncle can't disrespect him, hum!
Grandma Zhao is about to vent her anger!
Zhao Pingchuan knew who his mother was talking about as soon as he heard it, and immediately frowned. Didn't he tell his mother not to trouble that person again? He also knew in his heart that his mother was probably angry because she couldn't find the other party. After all, his mother was used to picking on that person before, how could he swallow this breath now that he bowed his head and admit defeat.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help complaining about his mother's ignorance, always trying to hinder him, how dare he take such a mother out
"Mum," Zhao Pingchuan asked patiently, "what happened?"
This is great, Mrs. Zhao finally seized the opportunity to tell others, and clattered all the shameless things he thought Tang Chunming did from beginning to end, such as seducing a man to help him farm, and how Hooked up with the shopkeeper of the restaurant in the town, otherwise why would people spend so much money to buy his vegetables, and now a large group of men come and go in and out of his yard, it's completely embarrassing my brother, so shameless The bitch should be dipped in a pigsty.
In front of her son, Old Mama Zhao cursed happily.
But Zhao Pingchuan could hear his forehead twitching, his patience was almost exhausted this day, no wonder the third uncle reminded him to persuade his mother, it turned out that it was for this matter. He had long since turned from disappointment to disgust with this brother Tang Chunming. If it wasn't for Tang Chunming, how could he be viewed in that way by the villagers, forcing him to go to town early.
Hearing that Tang Chunming dealt with the men in the village all the time now, the disgust in his heart deepened, but to his disappointment, Tang Chunming actually managed to live a good life and even bought land, and took advantage of the town's brocade. Remember the restaurant. He didn't think that Mrs. Zhao would think that Tang Chunming hooked up with the shopkeeper of Jin Kee to get this convenience. He also went to Jin Kee, which is considered the best restaurant in town. My son was attracted and went to put money on it. I remembered that when I came back, I seemed to hear a classmate mention that the current food in Jin Kee Restaurant is better than before, and said that I would invite him to eat in that restaurant someday, but Tang Chunming was not mentioned for a while. The dishes at home are connected with this incident, but I don't agree with my mother's words.
He originally wanted to see Tang Chunming struggling to get to his door, but it backfired.
Zhao Pingchuan didn't quite believe Mrs. Zhao's claim that Tang Chunming had ignorantly handed down money from Dahu. Zhao Pingchuan thought he wouldn't be fooled by what the original Zhao Dahu was like. His two elder brothers, One is stupid and lazy, the other is honest and honest, extremely filial to his mother, and actually takes good care of his younger brother, but because of some things, Zhao Pingchuan has never been used to this brother's vulgarity, and keeps asking his mother Hu asked for Yinliang, but he turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. Right now they are having a hard time, so they still have to rely on him in the future
He knew that his grandmother was just jealous of the money.
"Okay, mother," Zhao Pingchuan said impatiently, "Didn't the third uncle tell you to stop meddling in his family's affairs, why didn't you listen, big brother too, mother, you will take care of it from now on." He said, that person has already been separated and has nothing to do with us. Are you making trouble now to make people gossip? Doesn’t it mean that my Zhao family can’t accommodate a brother who is a dead man? Aunt, do you know how many people there are now? Are people jealous of our family?"
"My son is a scholar now, what am I afraid of him?" Old Mama Zhao screamed, telling him to bow his head to that bitch, it would be impossible in his next life.
"Yes, you are not afraid, but your son is afraid, let's do it," Zhao Pingchuan knew that he could not change his grandmother's mind, so he could only threaten, "I am afraid that I will bear the reputation of killing my brother, and even the fame of a scholar I can't keep it, Ah, I beg you, I will continue to take the test of merit in the future, how can I ruin my reputation and ruin my career for such a shameless brother? My mother will follow me into the city to be the old lord Well, the good days are yet to come, if my mother is determined to find that person to settle the score, then well, from now on I'll just forget about farming at home, and don't take the exam, so as not to be too busy to end up in the end."
"Impossible? He's the only bitch who can ruin my son's future? See if I can't strangle him to death!" The hateful gaze seemed as if Tang Chunming had really delayed his son's future. Even though Tang Chunming has changed a lot now, in Old Mama Zhao's heart, he is still the elder brother whom he has worked with in the past, so the more he is out of his control now, the more angry he is.
"If I can cover the sky in Anping County in the future, you can deal with him whatever you want, but not before that." Zhao Pingchuan let out the words, and at the same time gave his mother hope. Zhao Pingchuan was ambitious and didn't think that A day will not come, scholar, Juren, Jinshi, in front of him is a smooth road, he does not need to ruin his future for insignificant people.
"Okay," Mrs. Zhao had to swallow her breath and agreed, "Mum is waiting for that day!" He couldn't spare that bitch.
Although Zhao Pingchuan disliked his mother's vulgarity, he was not without filial piety, at least until his own interests were not actually threatened. He knew that his being admitted to the scholar's mother was a great contribution. Without his mother, he would not have so much money for him to squander after his father's death. So, in order to make his mother feel more at ease, he was thinking about asking his classmates in the town to find out about the situation of the shopkeeper and the owner of Jin Kee Restaurant, if he could cut off that person's money...
A black shadow under the window slowly moved out, and after walking away, the black shadow slowly straightened up and let out a long breath. He has always known that the third brother doesn't want him and Duhu, and even his mother only has the son of the third brother in his heart, and he doesn't take himself and Duhu seriously. Seeing that Dahu died, he didn't see how much his mother lost. True tears.
reputation? Heh, Zhao Daniu chuckled, isn't he, Zhao Pingchuan, afraid of getting a bad reputation, Zhao Daniu's good days are coming, Zhao Pingchuan don't want to get rid of him as a big brother, otherwise he will make his reputation fall to the ground!
Silver, nothing is more important than silver! Thinking of the gifts from those who came to the door, Zhao Daniu's eyes burst into greedy eyes.
&&&
Tang Chunrong lived with his brother for two consecutive days. After seeing that Zhao's guests had dispersed and Mrs. Zhao, Wang Chunhua and others didn't come to make a fuss, he felt more at ease. Similarly, it was Zhao Laosan who restrained his vicious family members. However, he also knows that this constraint is only temporary, some people just can't change their shit, after three years, he will definitely go to a higher position than Zhao Laosan!
Tang Chunrong was very happy about his elder brother buying land and doing business with the restaurant. The better his elder brother's life was, the more at ease he felt. The elder brother said that he had a batch of good seeds, and the yield per mu might be higher than before. Let me tell you, if the harvest increases this year, some of the seeds will be distributed to grandma next year. Tang Chunrong is even happier when he hears this. He can see that his brother is working hard to improve the relationship with grandma. This is what he is happy to see .
Tang Chunrong left, but some people in the village who wanted to watch the excitement were disappointed. Of course someone spread the harsh words that Old Mama Zhao uttered that day. Some people who were jealous of Tang Chunming's fortune and those who didn't like him had to move on to the stools to watch the big show. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a few days, there was no movement. It's rare that Mrs. Zhao, who never visited the house, actually ran to the town, but she walked across with his feet. No matter what, Uncle Zhao Liu was unwilling to let him get into the bullock cart, and it was useless for the third uncle to intercede.
Like Tang Chunming, he never longed to make a fortune by taking advantage of Zhao Laosan, and wished to stay as far away from this family as possible, so as not to arouse the hatred in the past.
And the third uncle saw that Mrs. Zhao did not make trouble anymore, and was even more satisfied with the obedient Zhao Pingchuan in his heart, and spared no effort to promote Zhao Pingchuan's good reputation in the village and nearby.
When some people waited to watch the big show but had no hope, the ground wall of Tang Chunming's new circle had already been built. It was made of a mixture of soil and stones. Angled gravel blocks to prevent people from climbing over the wall. Anyway, Tang Chunming pays for it, and the helper does what he says, and every extra day of work gets him an extra day's wages.
On the last day, they also borrowed cattle from Zhao Liushu's family and big green mules from Lizheng's family, plowed the enclosed land well, and fertilized it well with the farmyard manure Tang Chunming had accumulated. When the wages were paid at the end, Tang Chunming invited these people to have a good meal, and everyone was satisfied, and the reputation of Tang Chunming's good craftsmanship spread in the village.
After the new yard is built, it is connected with the old yard and a door is opened, so that you can pass through the original yard without going out. The new yard is more spacious, and the three children plus the little pillars who often come to play with them recently brought Xiaohua to run around in it. Tang Chunming didn't stop them, and it was right for them to exercise. He himself is also willing to go for a walk in the new yard. It turns out that he has too little room to move around. He has a full stomach and doesn’t want to go to the village, so he can only stay at home aggrieved. Thinking about it, he is pitiful, but now he is doing well. , Such a large place belongs to him, and Tang Chunming feels a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
The new yard was built, and Tang Chunming's plan to dig a well was also put on the agenda. Otherwise, he would be too embarrassed to ask Dashan to work for him for free, and Zhang Xiu would not want to pay for it. Yes, so it is imperative to drill wells.
Taking advantage of this time when everyone's attention was on the Zhao family, Tang Chunming hurriedly asked Li Zheng to find an old expert to help him dig up the underground water veins. Once the gate was closed, no one knew what was going on inside. , when the news spread in the village that the old Zhao's family was going to marry a wealthy family in the town, Tang Chunming's well had already been dug. Seeing the cool and clear water brought up from the well, Tang Chunming smiled cheerfully.
