Chapter 32
"Uh, this" Liu Yiu obviously didn't expect Lao Liu to talk about finding a wife. He patted his head, which made him a headache. Getting married and having children at the age of 18? In his concept, this is simply a joke. Who has ever seen a student who gets married and has children after graduating from high school?
"Dad, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait a few years before I talk about it." Liu Yi wanted to evade the situation, but Liu honestly refused to give him a chance. Lao Liu said very naturally: "This matter is undiscussed! I am you, you have to listen to me! After the New Year, I will find a wife for you, and your mother will hold your grandson at this time next year! If you can't hold it, I will marry you another house until our Lao Liu family has a future!"
Who is this? He is forced to marry a wife? Even if you want to hold a grandson, you have to wait until our body is fully mature. There is no such thing. Liu Yi said with a depressed look on his face: "Dad, if you want to hold a grandson, won't you still have two? His age will come in two years. Then you can marry him a few more houses?" As a last resort, Liu Yi had to transfer his goal despicablely.
Lao Liu said without any vaguely: "Erzhao is Erzhao, you are you. I will marry him when Erzhao is old, but you must marry a house after the New Year! The incense of our Lao Liu family is still directed to you."
""Liu Yiu was speechless. There was such a father, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Yes, brother, I also want you to marry me a sister-in-law back." Liu Ertiao also came to join in the fun at this time. Liu You glared at him fiercely and said unhappily: "What are you joining in the fun at your child's house? OK, Dad, let's talk about this in the future. Now it's time to go to have a meal. My mother has come out to call us."
This is the end of this matter.
However, Liu Laoshi was determined to marry Liu Yi's wife.
In the afternoon, in the evening, the village officials or the village officials in each village were beating the gongs in the village, gathering the main men in the village. It was announced that the county magistrate Wang had asked for a treatment for intestinal aphrodisiacs. The medicine had been distributed to the village officials in each village, so that villagers with cattle at home could collect it as soon as possible, treat those who were sick and prevent those who were not sick.
For a moment, Wang Zhihong's reputation reached an unprecedented height in Sanyuan County.
Maybe that's what he wants.
Liu Yi also returned the plowing ox from his family and returned the deposit. He had already obtained the benefits he deserved, and there was no need to let someone rub the backbone of the Liu family for these small money. Yuan Fang and Zhang Chu heard about Liu Yi's kindness and remembered his kindness in his heart.
The next day, someone from the county informed Liu Yi to go and see the land. Liu Yi didn't know him, and he looked like a small official like a clerk. The purpose of the visit was to take Liu Yi to recognize the land.
The land is three miles west of Liuyi and their village. Not far away, it is a wasteland full of weeds. Judging from the degree of wasteland of the land, this land has been plowed for at least five years, or even longer.
The land that has not been cultivated for five years has subsided and poor soil moisture, and even nutrients are a problem. It is probably a matter of time to fix it. However, I didn’t take these willows to heart, and he knew a lot of ways to raise the land. He was confident that he would turn all these wastelands into fertile fields within one year. What he is worried about now is the problem of people. Such a large piece of wasteland without the labor of a hundred people, it is probably difficult to fix it before spring. He also thought about planting a season of spring millet in the beginning of spring.
At noon, the plowing ox that Wang Zhihong promised also arrived at Liu Yiu's home.
Ten heads, even the original Xiaohuang in their family, were eleven in total. Liu looked at them honestly, and his mouth was so happy that he couldn't close. It was the first time he saw so many oxen together, and he couldn't even think about it. He touched this head and looked at the other one. Each of the ten oxen was very strong and was the best among the oxen. He couldn't help but feel unhappy.
However, as soon as there are too many cows, the problem arises. The cow tent at home was originally built for one cow, and it can't hold eleven at all. So when the ox arrives, Liu Zhen starts to consider the construction of the cow tent. It's winter now, so it's not possible to snow at any time. Putting the cow in the snow makes Lao Liu feel so distressed.
Liu Yi also started his old career and wore the bull's nose. After experiencing the benefits of starting the bull's nose from Xiao Huang, Lao Liu had already realized the great use of the bull's nose, so this time he urged him instead of waiting for Liu Yi to mention it.
The noses of ten cows made Liu Yi busy for an afternoon, and the roars of the cows in Lao Liu's family were endless, and the roars were shocking. Many neighbors attracted to come and see the fun. The neighbors were first surprised by the number of oxen in Lao Liu's family. When did Liu Xiaoshi buy so many oxen? Then he was surprised by Liu Yi's approach. I wonder why Liu Yi had to mess with their oxen so much. Aren't he afraid of going to jail again? I remember that the last time their family was caught by a servant because of the ox's nose.
No one realized the use of Liu Yi's nose. It was not until a month later that they realized the gentleness of the Liu family's oxen, and then they began to follow suit.
After dealing with the cow, Liu Yi washed the blood on his hands with warm water and began to help Lao Liu build the cow tent.
The cow tent was built with dead trees as bones, stalks and wormwood as clothes. Lao Liu had already built the skeleton and was about to climb to the top to lay the top. Liu Yiu saw that he was afraid that something would happen to him, so he opened his mouth and called him, saying, "Dad, just let me do the rest. You can rest below for a while."
Liu Laoshi wiped the sweat from his face and held his waist with both hands. He was really tired of working all afternoon. He said to Liu Yi: "It's good, but you have to be careful. I'll hand you artemisia to you below. Let's try to put it in before dark."
"Yeah." Liu Yiu responded, climbed up the wooden rack quickly, took the weeds handed over by Lao Liu, and asked while the shop: "Dad, now our family has cows and land. After the New Year, I want to hire a few more farmers to help reclaim wasteland. Do you know where to hire people?" Liu Yiu asked several families today. Although the conditions he offered were very generous, no one was willing to help him, which made him a little confused. Then he asked someone like Liu Lao Shi, who knew the roots.
"This," Liu thought for a while and said, "You probably won't hire people in the village. Everyone has their own fields to farm, and they won't come to help you. I haven't heard of any migrants who have moved here recently, so if you want to hire someone, you can only go to the county to find prisoners who have been released from their household registration, or servants who have been demoted to low-class citizenship. However, although the wages employed by such people are not high, generally no one is willing to hire them, disobedient, and like to cause trouble, or they don't have any farm work at all. If it's not necessary, it's best not to consider them."
