MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 84

"These are all materials brought by merchants from Suzhou. Let's take a look at them. It's almost summer, so I just need to make some new clothes."

After Zhang Shiyue came back at night, the family had dinner, and Zhang Fangyuan took out the cloth he brought back for the family to choose.

In the heat of summer, the common people wear light and thin clothes, like the rich and the wealthy wear silk brocades, ordinary people can't afford such expensive clothes, so they can only wear linen and coarse cloth.

There is a saying: "A person who is all over the body is not a silkworm raiser." People who often wear luxurious clothes are not people who work hard to raise silkworms for silk.

This time Zhang Fangyuan brought home silk and satin yarns, but these expensive cloths are also good or bad.

This time he took more than a dozen horses. Even if he made friends with Song Yong and got a good price, it was impossible to get familiar goods. It would be impossible for the dozens of horses to come down without a few dozen taels. Even if you can afford it, it's not necessary, as Xu He said, rural households don't need to wear such expensive clothes.

Bringing back these lightweight materials this morning is enough to wear them cool and comfortable in summer.

Although it is a raw product, but from a poor family with flat hair, the family can't put it down when they look at the exquisite cloth and exquisite workmanship. Zhang Shiyue has only seen those rich people wearing such beautiful cloth clothes in the city.

Xiao'e is also gently stroking the smooth silk brocade, the girl loves beauty when she grows up, how can she not like such a good material.

Zhang Fangyuan said: "There are a lot of materials, one can make two ready-made garments, and one person can choose three or four."

"By the way, those two dark horses are just mine. You don't have to choose them, they are all mine."

Xu He laughed and said, "You can also choose the material for yourself." It's much more worry-free than before.

"It was introduced by Boss Song, who said that merchants in Suzhou love to wear fabrics of this hue. He heard that I want cloth, so he specially gave it to me." Zhang Fangyuan saw several people standing around the table looking at the fabrics on the table. It's good to have a servant. Originally, I was supposed to wash the dishes and tidy up the house and yard, but someone has already done it this morning.

He stood up and walked over: "Anyone you like?"

"How can you not like such good materials?" Zhang Shiyue said: "My second aunt is getting old, so just one Xia Shi is enough for two clothes. Brother He picked a few more to make clothes."

"Second aunt, why are you so polite? A Yuan bought so much and asked everyone to make more clothes." Seeing that the designs and colors were all good, Xu He couldn't tell the difference, so he allocated three horses to Zhang Shiyue: " How can a woman not love beauty, make a few more."

"Xiao'e, you choose yourself."

The little girl nodded, and took three of the brightest colors. One was good-looking, and the young girl really liked it, and the other was too bright for her cousin to wear, so it belonged to her.

Time flies by when I return to my hometown, and it’s been a year in the blink of an eye. When I first came home, I was a thin and timid girl. Now I read, read, eat and drink well, and my body has improved accordingly. This is the fastest growing age, and this morning and fall is getting more and more youthful.

Although there are still two years left before Jiji, some people have already started to inquire with Xu He and Zhang Shiyue.

"There are so many materials, I'll ask Xiaomao to come over tomorrow to have a look, and I'll share one of them and make two new clothes for him too."

Zhang Fangyuan smiled and said: "Xiao'e and Xiaomao are the best friends, and I will never forget him."

Zhang Shiyue also said: "Then I will also take one to the fourth sibling."

"It's up to you to decide." Zhang Fangyuan looked at Xu He, and there were five horses left on the table besides his two: "What about you? Do you have any arrangements to give away?"

Xu He said: "Leave one for Ruijin Ruicarp."

"If this horse makes clothes for two little guys, one person can take two."

"The clothes I prepared earlier were all unique. Now that I have good materials, I can make two sets of the same clothes for the two children. They look good."

Zhang Fangyuan nodded, the two chubby little guys wearing the same clothes are indeed more eye-catching and flattering.

"Since I don't sleep at the other end of the tea shed, let Ruijin and Ruili go to sleep in my room at night, and you two can breathe a sigh of relief." Zhang Shiyue said: "The left and right Wenzi are also close to my room, just in time. Lead him to take care of the child."

Zhang Fangyuan is used to the cub sleeping with the couple at night, and he can see the two little things when he opens his eyes at night. If he goes to sleep with the second aunt for a while, he will definitely feel uneasy.

But before he opened his mouth, he glanced at Xu He next to him, but his words changed again: "Second Aunt loves these two little brats the most, so I send them to Second Aunt's room to sleep and have fun."

Xiao'e heard the words and said happily: "Then I will also sleep in my mother's room tonight, and I happen to be hugging Ruijin and Ruili."

"have to."

The two little ones were pushed from the main house to Zhang Shiyue's room. Although the other side was not as big as their main room, it was wider than the room at the other end of the old house, and they didn't feel cramped when putting down the crib.

After changing the house, the two cubs were a little bit novel, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…

Guessing that it was quite comfortable to be pushed into the crib and wobbly in it, Rui Li spit out a bubble and was a little dissatisfied when he came to a sudden stop.

Zhang Fangyuan was afraid that Xu He would be reluctant to part with the child, so he dragged him out of the house when the cub was delivered.

"Will it disturb the second aunt?"

"No, the two little guys don't make much trouble at night, and Wenzi will help take care of them, so it's okay." Zhang Fangyuan stretched his waist after speaking: "Let's go, go to sleep."

"All right."

Xu He absentmindedly followed the man back to the bedroom, and just entering the room, one hand passed by his waist to close the door, and when he retracted, he wrapped his arms around his waist and hugged him.

In the blink of an eye, he pulled himself so high that Xu He was startled, and looked down at the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, raising his chin and looking at him.

Zhang Fangyuan's ghost thoughts are clearly revealed, but needless to say, there is also a tacit understanding between husband and wife.

"Aren't you sleepy?"

Xu He looked at people condescendingly, he could change like no juggler.

"As soon as I entered the house, I woke up."

Zhang Fangyuan was thinking about finding some excuse to come out, but he felt that the legs around his waist were clamping his waist a little bit, his eyebrows moved slightly, and the hand holding his shoulder suddenly tightened, Xu He suddenly turned his head posted it.

He really didn't expect it to be like this, he clasped the person tightly and didn't let go, hurriedly walked towards the bed, but he was entangled together and couldn't see the way clearly, he kicked the stool he had just moved, and the two of them fell onto the bed together .

Xu He hissed, but before he could cry out the pain was covered.

The next day, when I woke up, it was already daylight.

Xu He moved his sore body and found that he was still surrounded by a pair of strong hands. He turned over and saw Zhang Fangyuan looking at him with a pair of clear eyes.

"Are you awake?" Xu He rubbed his eyes, saw the light coming in from the window, and the sun outside had already risen, he suddenly became more awake: "Why didn't you call me so late!"

Xu He tore off the quilt and was about to get up, Zhang Fangyuan stretched out his arms and pulled him back into his arms: "What are you doing so early, let's sleep in later."

"Stop messing around. It's a joke to get up so late."

Zhang Fangyuan laughed, he naturally knew what Xu He was laughing at other people's jokes: "Second Aunt has woken up a long time ago, and has already brought Wuzi to the tea shed to get acquainted, you laughed before you woke up, Thinking about what to do now.”

Xu He kicked Zhang Fangyuan, knowing that he should not get used to him yesterday.

"Are you thirsty, I'll pour you some water."

He didn't drink less last night, he waved his hand, and lay back on the bed again, his body was sore, and his body was also a little sluggish.

He gave up on himself a bit: "Then I'll sleep a little longer. If you don't go out today, then you can take the children."

"Okay." Zhang Fangyuan laughed, he lifted a corner of the quilt and got off the bed: "You can just rest, today I will watch the child."

Zhang Fangyuan got up and went to the kitchen to ask Wenzi to bring some breakfast to the house for Xu He to eat later. He carried the two cubs and went out for a while. The weather is warm now, neither hot nor cold in the morning, so it is good to take the children out for a walk to see the breath outside.

"How, can someone go to the village chief to sign up today?"

Zhang Fangyuan met his fourth uncle on the road.

"Good boy, let Uncle give you a hug." Zhang Shicheng looked at the two children in Zhang Fangyuan's arms, hugged Ruili over, and mumbled to tease the cub: "Go, someone will go early in the morning. No Going to be the first one to sign up, wanting to get the sling money, but two families arrived together, and now the son is fighting at the village head's house for who will be the first. There was no dispute, so I filled in my name and came back first. "

"Brother He was worried that the folks wouldn't do it, so I said that with the village chief around, he would definitely be able to take care of them."

Zhang Shicheng said: "Everyone doesn't want to earn some money to live a better life. Seeing that your life is getting better, I'm envious, but after all, I lack some courage and foundation, and I dare not do things lightly to lose money."

"I'll take a look at the village chief."

Zhang Shicheng was about to return Rui Li to his father, but the little boy seemed to know that his uncle was leaving, and suddenly leaned his head against Zhang Shicheng's neck, looking obedient.

"This kid."

Zhang Shicheng was reluctant to let go again, and turned back with Zhang Fangyuan with the child in his arms.

The village head's house was busy, and the two families who came first were still staring at each other and refused to let anyone else go. It’s no wonder that the folks are unwilling to give in. A sling of money is 100 Wen. Even young and strong men have to work for two days to get so much money. Now they have to plant mulberry trees and dig fish ponds. This amount of money can buy a lot of mulberry seedlings and fish fry.

"If you don't listen to persuasion, what should you do?"

The village chief recorded all the names of the later applicants, but the two households who came first refused to leave.

Zhang Fangyuan looked through the brochure, and there were almost ten villagers who signed up. Their old Zhang family's uncles and fourth uncles all signed up, and Chen Si's family also signed up. There was so much on the first day, and he was quite happy: "It's okay, everyone responded so positively, I'll pay for the other money."

The village head's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Zhang Fangyuan said: "There are too many, and it is not easy to save private money."

The village chief smiled: "Come on, you know how to brag, who can control your money."

…

"Many people in the village have signed up now, and there are only two days before the deadline for registration as the village head said. I will discuss with your father that there is a paddy field that can be used as a fish pond." Liu Xianglan went to the field today. I specially found Xu Shaochun to talk about it: "I went to your little brother's house to ask, and Zhang Fangyuan has already gone to ask a merchant who sells saplings on the hillside. When the time comes, I will bring back the mulberry tree and plant it soon. superior."

These days the village is in full swing for the mulberry fish pond, no one knows.

When Xu Shaochun got the news, he was a little tempted to do it. Yesterday he went to the village school to deliver meals to Fei Lian. He saw that the two children of the Zhang family were dressed so beautifully. After some insinuation, he knew that Zhang Fangyuan came from Suzhou. I am very envious of the cloth brought back by the merchant.

Looking at the teenage Xiao'e, who was fair and clean, dressed beautifully and freshly, she immediately thought of the happy days when she was a daughter's house, and felt bitter for a while.

Now she is too tired and dare not think that she can live in such a beautiful way, but she also wants her children to have a better life in the future, and if she looks for a good family, she also wants to have a richer family background, and the family her children will look at in the future The starting point could be better, taking advantage of this opportunity to find a way out with everyone to make money, but Fei Lian talked about it before he had to speak.

At home, Fei Lian scolded the villagers for not plowing the land and farming mulberry, thinking of crooked ways to make a fortune, and not plowing the fields down-to-earth to suffer losses. However, she could understand that Fei Lian looked down on these businesses that depended on merchants, so how could she dare to mention this matter.

"Forget it, Ah Lian refuses. After opening the school, the family's life has become much easier, so I don't bother with these things. The left and right village chiefs didn't say that every family must follow suit."

Compared with when Fei Lian was still studying in the city, her family is indeed much better. Now that Fei Lian is teaching at home, her mother-in-law will arrange a meal every two days, and there is plenty of oil and water every day. She is better than last year. .

Right now, there are not only the academy students' ceremony and tuition, but also Fei Lian's 2,000 Wen a month. He is already an upper-class family in the village. Although they are not as wealthy as Xu He's family, they can't go hungry after all. It is also full and warm.

It's just... She rubbed her belly, she felt that she was going to wrong the child, unlike the Zhang family's father who prepared a big house for the newborn.

"I don't want to quarrel with my mother-in-law now. If I hurt my body, I will lose my child."

Liu Xianglan's eyes were like bull's eyes: "You have it? When did it happen, why didn't you come back and tell me?"

"I only found out in these two days, and I haven't had time to go home yet."

Liu Xianglan nodded, and looked around while holding Xu Shaochun's waist. The child was too young to show her bosom, and she couldn't see why: "It's okay, it's okay, if you don't do this in the village, you can spend less time. Things are in the body, it is reasonable to take good care of the fetus."

"I just said that you should hug those two little things from the Zhang family more often, so you can have children, so you will come here?" Liu Xianglan couldn't help being happy, and said in a confused way: "Hug Ruijin more often, don't tell me A son will be born soon."

Liu Xianglan couldn't keep her mouth full, especially for such a good thing, Xu He knew it within two days. Xu He prepared a basket of eggs, and caught two old hens from the old house. Knowing that his second sister loves beauty, he took the good material that Zhang Fangyuan bought before and took one that hadn't had time to be made into clothes. And packed it up and took it to Xu Shaochun, it was right to congratulate him.

When he was pregnant, Xu Shaochun also came to visit to deliver eggs. Although it was to borrow money, Xu He should still have the gift. Now that they have settled down and lived in peace, he will not always carry it. In the past, I was haggling.

Soon the deadline for registration came to an end. Zhang Fangyuan, the village chief and the landowners in his village calculated how many households wanted to open fish ponds to raise fish, and how many families wanted to grow vegetables, plant mulberry trees and raise silkworms. After that, the village chief He was responsible for going out to go through the formalities. Zhang Fangyuan entrusted his contacts to buy fish fry and mulberry seedlings. The land owner had a lot of land on hand and was very good at planting, so he stayed in the village to guide the villagers to organize the land.

Finding merchants to buy things is easy, it's nothing more than a matter of circling the price. After doing this business for so long, it started from the street peddling business. Zhang Fangyuan has already made perfect for this matter.

The real problem is that after he has negotiated the price, each family has to buy seedlings according to the land they are willing to sell, and paying the money is the most annoying.

At this time, I also understand why every year the imperial court goes to the village to collect taxes and then goes back to have a serious illness. It’s really not an act. Today, this family has no money to cry and cry, and tomorrow they will go to another family to quarrel. one.

It took a month to collect the money, so Zhang Fangyuan really waited for the money to be paid before going back to Lamiao.

This year has been very busy.

There are almost no idlers in the whole village. Naturally, except for those who did not sign up to watch the excitement, the rest are digging fish ponds and planting mulberry trees in full swing.

The villagers planted trees and threw fish fry into the fish pond, and Zhang Fangyuan non-stop recruited people to build guest houses beside the tea shed.

The villagers spent money this time, and Zhang Fangyuan did not invest less. It can be said that the two lines of interest have been entangled into one.

In the spring of the second year, there were ten fish ponds in Jijiu Village, and mulberry trees were planted on the wide ridges beside the ponds, surrounded by green mulberries, creating a unique scene. In addition, several large mulberry fields were planted on the newly opened wasteland in the border area. These fields were opened by Zhang Fangyuan.

Few of the villagers were willing to open up wasteland, so he had to take the lead, and only a few villagers followed suit.

These newly reclaimed lands are poor and weak, and the fruits and vegetables planted are not strong enough to grow. Zhang Fangyuan simply planted mulberry trees. In order to fertilize these barren lands, he happened to pile up and ferment the large pile of chicken and duck manure at home. Go to the fruit field to make fertilizer.

Almost a year has passed, and the soil quality has obviously improved. The fields that used to only grow hard-rooted pennisetum have grown goose cabbage from the cabbage field.

When I bought mulberry trees, I didn’t buy too small seedlings, so the price was much higher than that of mulberry seeds and small seedlings. However, it takes two to three years for mulberry seedlings that are too small to bear fruit. That is to say, by next year, the batch that grows fast and well will be able to bear fruit.

This year, when the mulberry trees grow well this summer, the villagers are ready to buy silkworms to pick the leaves and raise them.

Zhang Fangyuan heard from an old farmer that he could feed the silkworm sand to the fish at that time, and the mulberry tree itself was planted by the fish pond and would be fertilized by the fish pond. The villagers discovered the advantages of this in the second year of planting trees. The mulberry trees planted in this way really grow faster than usual.

"The guest house beside the official road is still being completed in spring, and I missed the tourists in the city. This summer, the watermelons in Tangjiaba are ripe, and the Guanyin Temple meets the Bodhisattva's birthday. This is the first wave guest."

Zhang Fangyuan was sweating hot when he returned home. This year is really too hot.

Xu He took out a piece of ice from the cellar, and cut a watermelon: "Let's cool off."

Zhang Fangyuan took a bite of the melon hidden in the cellar. It was sweet and relieved heat. He ate most of it before asking, "Where are Ruijin and Ruili still taking a nap?"

Xu He said: "Asleep in the room, eat the melon quickly, don't let the children see it, or you will fight to eat it. Yesterday I ate too much iced watermelon and my stomach felt uncomfortable."

Zhang Fangyuan laughed. He cut the melon yesterday and gave it to the two children to eat a small piece. Perhaps the melon in Tangjiaba is really sweet this year. Rui Li looked at his brother after eating the melon in a few mouthfuls. Ruijin took a bite and gave the rest of the melon to his little brother, but he ate too much. At night, his stomach hurt and he couldn't sleep because of crying. He asked the doctor to prescribe some medicine to recover.

Naturally, being so naughty didn't escape his little father's beating, and he still cried and ran to him at night to complain.

"Okay, I can't eat anymore, let Wenzi take it and put it away. I'll go see the child."

Just as Zhang Fangyuan entered the room, he saw that the person on the small bed had stopped sleeping honestly for some time. At that moment, there was standing a fat, round, short winter melon, with two chubby hands tightly grasping the railing of the small bed. , Stretched out his fat white steamed bun-like feet and gently stepped on the soft face of the little boy who was sleeping next to him.

The child is still too young, and it feels very comfortable to step on the face, so he forgets his original intention. It seems that one foot is not enough, and the other wants to step on it, but the result is that the left foot tripped over the right foot and fell to the little boy. on the body.

Zhang Fangyuan rushed over to pick up the fat wax gourd with a stride, and took another look at Ruijin who was sleeping peacefully, and heaved a sigh of relief.

He patted the naughty ghost's buttocks, and whispered: "How can you step on your brother's face? It's not right."

Rui Li was hit by his brother's chin, twitching in pain, and was about to cry, but he forgot the pain when he heard his father say: "Mosquito, mosquito on my brother's face! Hit it!" !"

Zhang Fangyuan couldn't help laughing: "It's fine to beat mosquitoes with your hands, not your feet. That's wrong, do you understand?"

Rui Li nodded: "Well, if Daddy says no, he won't."

"But eat a big watermelon!"

Zhang Fangyuan nodded helplessly on the tip of the little guy's nose: "Why are you so greedy, didn't daddy give you food at noon?"

Of course I ate it, and I also ate sweet dumplings, but I didn't eat the big watermelon. The child could not speak, but he could not lie, he pursed his lips, pitifully not answering.

Zhang Fangyuan squeezed his chubby face: "When brother wakes up, daddy will take you and brother to the tea shed to play, okay?"

"it is good!"

Hearing that he was able to go out to play, the little guy's face immediately became radiant, he temporarily forgot about the big watermelon, and happily wriggled on his father's body like a caterpillar.

Ruijin just woke up from the dream at this moment, moved her arm like a white radish, did not touch the younger brother who always fell asleep with the big characters open, and almost cried out, thinking that the younger brother was also given by the **** bear Take it away.

Just now, in his sleep, he dreamed that a huge steamed stuffed bun suddenly fell on him from the sky. It was soft and fragrant, but it didn't smell like steamed stuffed bun, like Rui carp. He wanted to take a bite when he opened his mouth, but it was a pity Before biting the big bun, it was taken away by a **** bear.

"Brother!" Hearing the soft voice of milk, he quickly got up from the bed, pouted his buttocks, looked at Rui Li who was being hugged by Zhang Fangyuan, and withdrew his tears again, and stretched out all the way to his father. Raised his arm: "Hug."

Ruijin would only ask for a hug when he sees his father, because only his father can hug a round, short winter melon on one side and another solid big winter melon on the other, in the words of a little daddy That would be a bit of a struggle.
