In the hearts of these tenant farmers, no one can compare to the Yanagi family. \

Especially Li Dechen and their lineage, when the original owner Wang Kui was in power in Sanyuan, they were unclothed, rarely fed, and when it was cold in winter, there were even many people who died of hunger and cold, and their lives could be described as miserable.

After Wang Kui was brought down by Liu Yiyi and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department by Wang Zhihong, he lacked the little care of the owner, and these rootless tenant farmers had a hard time to live, only guarding the only little ration at home every day, and they didn't know where their tomorrow was, or whether they could live tomorrow. Every day, the most important thing they think about as tenant farmers is, what will they eat for the next meal?

Thinking of these, Li Dechen was sad for a while, it was a harsh winter at that time, and the New Year was approaching, their village, more than 300 villagers, all the rations added up, but it was no more than 100 catties, and there were also some dry wild vegetables and bark-like things.

That's all there is to it, what is enough?

At that time, Li Dechen thought in his heart, this year, the more than 300 of them are afraid that they will not be able to get by, the weather is cold, if there are a few more heavy snowfalls in a few days, the old and young in the village are afraid that there will be less than half, and he himself is estimated that he will not see next year.

With the thought of death, the old and strong people in the village, their eyes have turned green, and no one has too many scruples at this time, and the tenant farmers who are honest and obedient on weekdays have all become hungry wolves who eat at will, as long as there is food, there is nothing they dare not do.

Even if you want to die, you have to be a full ghost.

After reading poetry and books for a few years, he has always known himself as a man of letters, although he knew that it was wrong, he did it, and in the end it was the way to death, but Li Dechen knew that when he saw these changes in the villagers, he himself was indeed moved.

They are tenant farmers, they belong to the lowly criminals, the laws of the court are clear, except to be employed in the field, to work for their crimes, they must not have any other livelihood, otherwise, the felony is unforgivable, even if the head is cut off, it is not an exaggeration.

But at that time, knowing that they wouldn't live long, who would care about these things anymore?

Just as they were thinking in their hearts whether they were carrying the laws of the imperial court. Secretly went out to the county town to beg. Or take on some private work in the dark. Or go to the neighboring villages to steal some food rations. If you are more daring, you will even think about whether it is time to go to some rich merchants to snatch some money. Yanagichichi is here.

A teenager with a doll dry skinny. Pale. Dressed in a coarse cotton coat with a few patches but washed very white, the body is still shivering, and he is still young. At first glance, he was also from a poor family. It's all honest people. Let's be honest. When the two brothers first arrived. Li Dechen really didn't take them too seriously.

Such a small owner. There are only thirty acres of land in the family. And most of them are barren and uncultivated fields. What land is enough. If it is according to the rent given by Wang Kui before. Thirty acres down. Not even a third of their village could be stopped. It's also impossible to survive this year.

So. For this newcomer to the landlord. Li Dechen didn't have much hope in his heart. Nor do I think that he has come. can make their already broken village. Get out of the current poor situation.

"Fellows. Villager. Or tenants. Do you want to get out of this poverty? You want to have cotton clothes in winter. Do you have a sandals in summer? You want to live in a spacious and bright wooden house. Do you have meat to eat every day and soup to drink every night? ”

Until. When I heard the little proprietor ask these questions in his seductive voice. Li Dechen gradually put away his contempt.

There are clothes in winter, there is meat every day, to be honest, after listening to the words of their little owner, not only those strong men in the village, but also he, the old man, was also a little moved, and his expression was involuntarily attracted by the words of the little owner, and his eyes all fell on the little face of the owner who was still a little immature.

Later, the contract given by the owner made Li Dechen wonder if he had entered heaven, and the ninety life-saving money given by the owner before leaving really told him that it was not a dream.

As long as you follow the owner, have clothes to wear, and meat to eat, it is not impossible, at the age of fifty-six, when he was close to the sixtieth birthday, Liu Yiyi let Li Dechen see the hope of life.

Ninety cents, not much.

Now the tenants under Li Dechen can come up with the same or even more silver money, but at that time, when they were so poor that they could only drink two mouthfuls of porridge per meal, the 90 yuan saved the lives of more than 300 people in their village, so that they would not survive that difficult year in hunger and cold.

People must not forget their roots, and people must learn to be grateful.

Therefore, no matter what kind of disaster the Liu family encountered, these tenant farmers would never abandon their owners and swore to follow them, although all they could do was to plant good fields for their owners.

Therefore, whether it was Li Dechen or Weng Yu, after hearing the news of their host's return, they were all refreshed and high-spirited.

The owner came back, and they had a foundation in their hearts.

"I know that people as good as the owner will have God's help in the dark, and the old owner and the young owner will all return safely." Straightened his waist and clenched his fists, Weng Yu's neutrality was full.

The whole family is united because of the young master, there is the eldest young master and the second young master, and it is difficult for the Liu family to be unhappy.

According to the custom, Liu Wuchen, the chief housekeeper who came to inspect the tea garden, looked at Li Dechen Weng Yu and his group of tenant farmers with excited and energetic expressions, and couldn't help but nod lightly, and the more admiration for their young master in his heart.

From starting from scratch to creating such a big family business now, in addition to the intelligence of their young master, the young master's charm of uniting people's hearts and winning people's hearts is also indispensable.

can make the whole family, whether old or young, be grateful to Dade, follow the Liu family with all their hearts, and never give up until death, not anyone can do it.

"Steward Liu!" "Steward Liu!"

Seeing Liu Wuchen coming from outside the garden from a distance, Li Dechen and Weng Yu stopped talking together, hurriedly greeted Liu Wuchen, and bent down to salute.

"The two stewards have worked hard," Liu Wuchen nodded to the two with a smile, looked at the people who were busy in the tea garden, and asked the two softly: "It seems that the harvest of the tea garden this season is also good." ”

"Go back to the big housekeeper," glanced at Li Dechen, and seeing that he motioned for himself to reply, Weng Yu took a step forward and said to Liu Wuchen: "The newly spit shoots after the rain, this time they will be picked, when there are 100 catties, the villain will take someone to send it to the tea house in the evening." ”

The tea garden can produce 100 catties a day, which is also good," Liu Wuchen nodded lightly, and praised Weng Yu without hesitation: "Speaking of which, these are also the hard work of Weng Yu's steward, and our Liu family's tea garden, Weng is well taken care of." ”

In recent years, for the sake of this tea workshop, Liu Wuchen has visited a lot of tea gardens, up and down the mountain, and has seen a lot, although he still doesn't understand the matter of planting tea and picking tea, but he also understands the color of this tea tree thoroughly.

People say that tea goes to the mountains, but the tea trees in their Liu family's current tea garden are not inferior to the tea varieties on the mountains, the growth of the tea trees, and the color of the tea leaves, even better than the old tea on the mountains, and the fragrance is a few points.

"The big housekeeper praised it falsely, it was the owner who taught him well, and the villain didn't dare to take credit." Carefully looking up at Liu Wuchen, Weng Yu asked him in a low voice: "The villain heard a little before, saying that the owner and the young lady are back, the villain asks more, I don't know if this news is true?" ”

You've all heard about it? Looking up at Weng Yu and Li Dechen, Liu Wuchen said: "The owner and the young lady have indeed come back." ”

"Just before the rain," seeing the surprise on both of their faces, Liu Wuchen continued: "Because of the tight time, there is the emperor's old man's holy decree urging behind, and the owner and the young lady They stayed at home for a while, and they didn't have time to meet you." ”

"Still, it's coming soon. Just delivered a message from Chang'an City this morning, not only the owner and the young lady, but also the old man and the old lady and the little lady, and they are about to come back. "Now that it's said, Liu Wuchen has no intention of hiding it anymore, for so long, the Liu Mansion, because of the owner's silent concealment, has always seemed a little lifeless, and now, it's time to have some joy to motivate it.

"The sky has eyes! God and Buddha bless! Master Liu, their family is fine! Li Dechen put his hands together, and bowed up and down, left and right, and was personally confirmed by Liu Wuchen, the big housekeeper, that the old man was finally at ease.

It's okay, peace is a blessing, Li Dechen is really scared in his heart, afraid that their small proprietor will be like the previous Wang Kui, overnight, from prosperity to decline, and these tenants who are involved are also driven out of the field with the source of life.

To be honest, like Liu Yiyi, such a good owner, Li Dechen, is reluctant. Not only him, but also Weng Yu, and the village tenants behind them, are also the same. After all, in the entire territory of Datang, the owners who can feed and dress their tenant farmers and even have money in their hands are the only ones in Liufu until now.

"I'm going to tell the villagers about the good news!" After bowing to Liu Wuchen, Weng Yu trotted to the depths of the tea garden regardless of his image. After a while, Liu Wuchen and Li Dechen heard an almost roaring cry from the tea garden outside the tea garden: "The owner is back!" ”
