Chapter 267: Coming to the door to apologize
Hugh, a very common thing in the eyes of Liu Yiyi, is a great favor in the eyes of these tenant farmers.
Looking at the excited and moved expressions on the faces of Li Dechen and Weng Yu, Liu Yiyi could almost imagine how seriously those landlords exploited them in the past.
They were not given food or clothing, but they were forced to work in the fields with all their lives.
Grabbing a handful of dry dirt on the ground, Liu Yi set his eyes on the tenant farmers who were still toiling in the fields, and they were the easiest people to satisfy, and a little food and clothing and a little favor were enough to make them work hard for you.
"Have all the wells been dug in the field?" Liu Yiyi looked at the tenant farmers in the field, and asked Li Dechen softly.
"If you go back to the owner," Li Dechen bent down slightly and replied to Liu Yiyi: "Three hundred hectares of land, three hundred wells have already been dug up, and the current drought can no longer threaten the crops in the field, so the owner can rest assured." ”
After planting the land for so many years, in such a year of great drought, it is the first time that Li Dechen has seen the crops in the field without shortage of water and soil.
Therefore, Li Dechen respects and admires this young owner who can easily fight even natural disasters, but more of them are secretly glad that if the owner's waterwheel is not born, they tenant farmers this year, I don't know if they will be starved to death again.
You know, in the years of great calamity in the past, it was these tenants who lived by hire who died the most.
"Hmm," Liu Yiyi nodded lightly and said, "The rapeseed willow steward is also ready." When the grain is harvested at the end of the month, go to him and bring it, and plant all the remaining hundred and eighty acres of land with vegetables. Well, if possible, I will pick another piece of land in the future and build a few greenhouses for growing vegetables. {First Reading}"
Speaking of dishes. Liu Yiyi couldn't help but think of the vegetables in the old greenhouse. That's not hard. If the operation is good, selling summer vegetables in winter is also a good way to make money in this Tang Dynasty.
Liu Yiyi chuckled proudly, knowledge creates wealth, knowledge determines destiny, here. He was also a man of knowledge.
After chatting with Li Dechen and Weng Yu for a while, Liu Yiyi looked at the sky, the sun was already hanging high, like a big charcoal ball, he wanted to roast people, and he didn't want to suffer here anymore, so he stood up and explained a few words to Li Dechen and them. Then he wandered back to his house.
There are ice cubes in the house. There is also an iced sour plum soup specially prepared by Yanagijo for the whole family.
A few days ago, Liu Yiyi ordered his subordinates to go to the county to buy the ice, where there is a workshop specializing in selling ice. However, this ice is not ordinarily expensive, a small piece, and it is almost towards a chicken.
If it had been placed in the past, their old Liu family would not have bought such extravagant things anyway, of course, they couldn't afford it, but now, they just got a box of gold and had money in their hands, and Liu Yiyi no longer valued it so much, and he also learned from those really big households, once.
The ice cubes of a carriage cost him nearly thirty yuan to go, and the old willow was so angry that he scolded the loser vigorously, and wanted to take a stick to smoke the willow, so much money, he bought some dispensable ice cubes and came back, and he was about to go to two cows, and he was distressed.
However, the distress is distressed, and the sour plum soup is calmed out with ice cubes, but Lao Liu is not less drunk than others, and he is almost addicted to drinking one sip after another.
Liu Yiyi returned to the room, told Xiaoxi to bring a bowl over, and drank violently, his heart was cold in his stomach, and his whole body was comfortable, and he threw aside all the irritability caused by the heat and stuffiness just now. {First Reading}
"How much ice are there?" Liu Yiyi gently put down the bowl and asked Xiaoxi in a loud voice.
"If you go back to the young master, there is still more ice in the cellar, enough for us to go for another half a month." Xiaoxi stepped forward to put away the small bowl and whispered back to Liu Yiyi.
Half a month, thirty times, Liu Yiyi couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh, the children of poor families don't have so much courage after all, although they have money, they can't bear to spend it happily.
"Hasn't the young lady come back yet?" Liu Yiyi shook his head lightly, and asked about his daughter-in-law's whereabouts.
"The young lady has just come back from the master's place, and she has drunk a bowl of sour plum soup, and is now resting in the back room." Xiaoxi glanced at Liu Yiyi and said, "Young Master, do you want Xiaoxi to call the young lady?" ”
"Oh, no need, I've been playing with Xiaohui's girl for so long, she must be tired, let her rest for a while." As he spoke, Liu Yiyi waved his hand at Xiaoxi and motioned for her to exit the door.
The inside of the house was much darker than the outside, and Liu Yiyi had just sat there
For a long time, there was some sleepiness in his head, and when he got up and wanted to go to the place where he could rest together, Li Biao, the kid, walked over inappropriately.
"Owner," Li Biao bent down and saluted Liu Yiyi, and then said loudly to Liu Yiyi: "That big official surnamed Cheng is here again, and he is waiting in the hall now, and the big housekeeper asked the little one to call you." ”
Surname Cheng Di Daguan'er? Isn't it Cheng Chumo's house?
Liu Yiyi waved his hand at Li Biao and said, "You go down first, I'll be there in a while." ”
asked Xiaoxi for a basin of water, washed his face, and the whole person was a little more energetic, tidied up the clothes on his body, and Liu Yiyi walked to the front yard.
Sure enough, it was Cheng Chumo, who was sitting in the hall at the moment, opening his big mouth and pouring the iced sour plum soup into his mouth, which was not polite at all, and looked very unproductive.
"The little people see the process of adults!" Liu Yiyi stepped forward and bowed to Cheng Chumo, and then sat down under Cheng Chumo, Xiao Cheng was not wearing an official uniform today, he was still wearing a purple samurai robe, and he looked, well, as powerful as that.
Seeing that Xiao Cheng drank the sour plum soup in the bowl, Liu Yiyi raised his hand and ordered his subordinates to serve another bowl.
"Last time, Lord Cheng took action and saved the eight lives of my Liufu people, Xiaomin is here to thank Master Cheng." Liu Yiyi silently arched his hand at Cheng Zhi.
"Uh, this, Liu boy," Cheng Chu's old face turned red rarely, he glanced at Liu Yiyi embarrassedly, put the sour plum soup he had just received on the table, and said to Liu Yiyi: "The last time it happened, our old Cheng was incompetent, seeing Hou Lao'er breaking those people's legs, I really can't stand you, today I Lao Cheng is here to make amends for you." ”
Belch? Liu Yiyi was stunned, he didn't expect Cheng Chumo to say such a thing.
"Lord Cheng is serious," Liu Yiyi hurriedly waved his hand, and said: "The last time Lord Cheng was able to be present in person, Xiaomin was already grateful, if it wasn't for the presence of adults at that time, those eight subordinates are afraid that they will not only break a leg, so please don't blame yourself." ”
"So, don't you blame me Lao Cheng?" Cheng Chumo glanced at Liu Yiyi and asked softly.
"Lord Cheng is not wrong, how dare Xiaomin blame, Lord Cheng must not say such words again." It can be seen that Cheng Chumo is apologizing specifically for the last incident, and his appearance makes Liu Yiyi a little embarrassed, and the resentment that existed in his heart before has also dissipated.
"That's good, that's good," Cheng Chumo breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Liu Yiyi: "Last time in this Liufu, it's not that our old Cheng is unwilling to rescue, but it's really not that Hou Lao'er's opponent, fifty servants, against two hundred elite soldiers who have killed people on the battlefield, they will only lose their lives in vain, they all have families and children, Lao Cheng can't bear to let them go to death, so there are only eight people who have wronged you." ”
Last time, Cheng Chumo was also very aggrieved, he could only watch everything, he couldn't make a move, and he couldn't intervene, although when he came, Liu Yiyi said in the letter that he didn't have to do anything, just a pair of eyes, but, in his heart, Cheng Chumo always felt a little guilty, especially after learning that Liu Yiyi had cleaned up Hou Junji in Chang'an City, he didn't feel a good feeling in his heart.
He always felt that Ren Liu Yiyi had avenged him and let out a bad breath, but he was a great commander, but he couldn't even protect a few of the subordinates of Liu Mansion, and he was very cowardly.
"These Xiaomin all understand that Master Cheng was able to come at that time, and he had already done Xiaomin a great favor, so in this matter, Xiaomin is only grateful, and has no sense of blame," Liu Yiyi chuckled and said to Cheng Chumo: "And the legs and feet of those eight people are no longer in serious trouble, and they will be fine in another month or two, and Lord Cheng doesn't need to mind." ”
"Oh, that's good, then our old Cheng will rest assured, hehe, Liu boy, you're good!" Cheng Chu silently heard this, patted Liu Yiyi's shoulder happily, and then took another sip of the sour plum soup on the table.
"Uh," was slapped coldly by Cheng Chumo, Liu Yiyi was almost slapped to the point of vomiting blood, this Xiao Cheng has a lot of strength in his hands.
"In the future, you will be my brother of Lao Cheng, and in Chang'an City in the future, my Lao Cheng will cover you, if you are in trouble, just report my name of Lao Cheng." Cheng Chumo put down the bowl and said to Liu Yiyi very heroically, the stinky fart looked like Chang'an City was the back garden of their house
