Chapter 284 From the farmer to the prime minister 12
Chen Laohan's house.
now.
Chen Laohan's family is eating.
"Old man Chen? Are you at home?
While he was eating, Old Man Chen suddenly heard several people walking into the yard and calling his name.
"Who is this coming to our house?"
The old man Chen frowned, then followed the open door and glanced into the yard.
Then, the already frowning eyebrows, wrinkled deeper.
Because the few people who came over were all villagers in the village who did not deal with him.
"What are they doing in our house?" Chen shi also saw the person coming, and his face suddenly turned pale.
"What are you doing in my house, you are not welcome in my house, go out quickly. 35
Old man Chen got up and said directly to several people.
The tone was very impolite.
"Yes, hurry out." Chen shi said next to him.
"Do you think we are willing to come to your house? The reason we came here is to tell you one thing, and we'll leave after we've said it, but it's uncertain whether you can eat well after hearing this."
A villager sneered and said directly.
"What do you mean?" Old man Chen frowned, not understanding what the man said.
What can make him not eat well after listening to it??
"He certainly can't eat well.
"you still need to ask?"
A few villagers who walked in, you glanced at me and said a word, and they all opened their mouths.
Let Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen, who were listening, frown again.
Chen Yan and Chen Ming, who were sitting next to them, also looked over.
"Okay, we don't want to talk to you, you don't know, just now, Chen Nuo and Erhai went for a walk in the woods, and guess what? Hey, don't say it, Chen Nuo Luckily, I actually found a ginseng that is at least twenty years old, and has complete whiskers and leaves. If it is sold, it can be sold for at least twenty taels of silver.35
"Twenty taels of silver? Certainly not only, that ginseng sells so well that it can be sold for twenty-five taels of silver.
"Twenty-five taels of silver, if you save a little, it can take ten years.
"A lot of money.""
A few villagers said one sentence to another, and the voice was very loud.
After listening to their words, the expressions of Old Man Chen and the Chen shi changed instantly.
Chen Yan and Chen Ming, who were sitting next to them, also changed their expressions.
"What are you talking about? The second one found a ginseng? Or is it twenty years old ginseng??
The old man Chen had an unbelievable expression on his face, but he actually believed most of it in his heart.
Because these few people who don't deal with him can directly find the family and tell him, which proves that this matter can't be true any more!!
"That's still fake? When Erhai brought Chen Nuo back just now, many people saw the ginseng he was holding."
"Tsk tsk, old man Chen, you can no longer call Chen Nuo the second son, Chen Nuo is now Chen Erhai's son, but it has nothing to do with you.
"It's a pity, some people can't wait to adopt their own sons, but they didn't expect that even half a day passed, and the adopted sons found a twenty-year-old ginseng."
"If this is not adopted, then the twenty-year-old ginseng belongs to some people, and it is twenty-five taels of silver. What can you do?"
"It can only be said that God still has eyes, knowing that some people are partial to their children, it is not a good thing, and they will not let him get this money.
Several villagers looked mocking, and when they were talking, they looked at the unsightly faces of Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen, and felt relieved.
They have conflicts with Chen Laohan because they have been hired by Chen Laohan to help farmers before.
This is a common occurrence in the village. After some villagers have finished their own farm work, in order to make more money, they will go to work in the homes of villagers with more land.
And the remuneration is clearly marked, 40% of the land harvest.
In fact, it is very cost-effective, you don't need to farm, and you get 60% for nothing.
But after these few villagers worked for Chen Laohan for a year, it was their turn to settle the bill for the autumn harvest, but Chen Laohan only gave them 20% of the grain.
And it was given by Chen Mi.
Liang Zi concluded.
So now that old man Chen can be unhappy, several people are very happy in their hearts.
Should!!
"Okay, we've finished talking, you eat well, let's go, let's go back too. 35
"Walk.
"You must eat well, and don't waste food if you can't finish your food.
Several villagers talked and walked out of the courtyard.
"Cool!! 99
"Haha, thinking of the old man Chen's face as if he had eaten shit just now, I feel very happy in my heart. 35
"He must be uncomfortable, after all, if he adopts a day late, the ginseng will be his."
"He asked for it by himself. I heard the patriarch say that when old man Chen heard that he was going to adopt it last night, he couldn't wait to say that he would adopt it today."5
"Should!!"
Several villagers walked out of the Chen's yard and stood at the door and said in relief.
And in the house.
No one in Chen's family said a word, and the atmosphere of silence permeated the main room.
··For flowers··0
Quiet as if a needle fell on the ground, you can hear it clearly.
At this moment, the old man Chen really regretted in his heart.
Regretful bowels are about to regret it.
A twenty year old ginseng!!
Great sale!!
Complete roots!!
Not to mention, it can be sold for twenty-five taels of silver!!
Just found out just now.
These words went over and over again in Old Man Chen's head, making Old Man Chen look hideous.
If the adoption is delayed one day, wouldn't this ginseng belong to him??
When the old man Chen looked grim and regretted in his heart, Mrs. Chen, who was sitting next to him, was also very regretful in his heart.
"Why is the second child so lucky? He just found a 20-year-old ginseng after he adopted it?"
Chen Shi said with a sullen face.
0
"Father, mother, we must bring this ginseng, and we can sell it for 25 taels. This ginseng must be in our hands. With these 25 taels, my study expenses and pen, ink, paper and inkstone for the next few years, And the cost of living in the town, don't worry about it!! 39
Chen Yan was wearing a scholar's robe, and his face was full of greed at the moment.
Twenty-five taels of silver!!
The family only earns four or five taels of silver a year!!
If this money is in his hands, then he can spend it lavishly in the academy.
You can also go to the hook bar that your classmates said, and see what it looks like there.
I heard that the girls there are all very beautiful!
"Yes, Mom and Dad, this ginseng must be brought to our house." Chen Ming also looked greedy next to him.
But what he thought was that with the twenty-five taels of silver that the ginseng sold, he would not have to go to work in the fields.
He can also go to the town academy to study!!
The two brothers had a greedy look on their faces.
But after listening to the words of the two, Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen's expressions became increasingly ugly and regretful.
"Bring it back? You said it simply. If the second child is adopted, it has nothing to do with our family. If we dare to find the second child and ask the second child to hand over the ginseng, the village and the clan will not tolerate it."5
The old man Chen had a sullen face.
Adoption was very sacred in ancient times.
Just because a person has children does not mean that children can have children of their own.
Therefore, the entire clan, the people in the village, and even the entire society, will maintain this kind of thing.
in case.
If anyone adopts his son out, but still dares to come to the door to ask for benefits, that is a force that cannot be tolerated.
