Chapter 246: All are action-oriented
"Then go back and wait for your nephew to be filial to you. Get out of here now. Don't stay in my house. It's unlucky!"
Zhang Cuihua started to chase people away and hit them with a broom.
Sun Ye Zi staggered and the crowd immediately dispersed. When Sun Ye Zi left the house, the crowd blocked the door again.
Sun Ye Zi turned around and wanted to go in, but saw a group of people gathered there. She gritted her teeth and finally left crying.
"Thank you guys."
Zhang Cuihua watched people walk away and immediately expressed her gratitude to everyone.
The crowd did not stay long and left carrying their farm tools.
Su Wanwan watched a big show and looked back at Shen Heng and the children.
"Fengnian, you guys are all well now. If you have nothing to do starting tomorrow, go over there and learn to read."
When the children heard this, they immediately nodded.
They still like learning to read, except Fengnian who has a droopy face and doesn't like studying.
"Aunt, I still want to learn arithmetic."
Fengshou thought of the arithmetic that his aunt taught him. The arithmetic he learned was simple, easy to remember and useful.
After learning these, he will definitely be able to find a job as an accountant in the city.
"Okay, if you want to learn, I will teach you. In the future, Fengshou will definitely be able to be an accountant."
Su Wanwan nodded.
A bookkeeper is an accountant. Shen Fengshou likes math, and his dream is to be a bookkeeper. He also has talent, so it would be a pity if he is not cultivated well.
It just so happens that if he is willing, he can be the accountant of the workshop in the future.
So, she planned to teach him some modern accounting methods.
It doesn’t have to be that complicated. First, learn basic arithmetic, then simplify modern accounting methods and record them in numbers.
"Don't tell me, Fengshou is a smart kid. You taught him those things. A while ago, we were calculating the output of the land, but we couldn't figure it out no matter how hard we tried. He figured it out in one go. Thanks to you..."
Zhang Cuihua once again pulled Wanwan aside to express her feelings of gratitude.
That night, Zhang Cuihua took the old man aside, called her son and grandchildren, held a family meeting, and talked about the mill.
"We are family, so we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. I think Shen Yuan and his people are big people, and they don't look down on this kind of small business. Let's do this. You brothers should remember Shen Yuan's kindness, and you young people, grow up to be filial to your uncle and aunt."
Shen Songqing was smoking a pipe and preparing to burn some paper at his ancestral grave the next day.
I also said something to the third brother, asking him to know about it in the afterlife and bless Shen Yuan and his wife with all the best.
Everyone nodded, expressing their agreement.
"Then let's go to that river section tomorrow. If we want to build a mill there, we have to find the village head to buy some nearby land. But it's just a small piece of wasteland, so it shouldn't cost much. We should build it early so that we can use it after the autumn harvest."
Zhang Cuihua is an impatient person. Now that she has made the decision, she must act quickly.
time does not wait.
Everyone had no objection and immediately divided the work.
Shen Songqing was even more anxious, so he simply went directly to the headman's house.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the headman's house, they happened to meet Wang Cui'e who had just come out of the headman's house.
Of course he knew this daughter-in-law, but as an old man he didn't dare to say much, so he just greeted her and went into the house.
When Liu Daping saw him coming, he asked his daughter-in-law to bring a pot of wine and some fried beans. The two old brothers drank and talked at the same time.
Hearing Shen Songqing's intention, Liu Daping had no choice but to give in.
The wasteland in the ditch was only half an acre in size and could be taken for two hundred copper coins.
"My dear, your Shen family is so lucky to have a daughter-in-law like Shen Yuan's. It seems that you will become rich soon."
Liu Daping sighed and thought, look at how other people live.
"Don't be so ungrateful. When the Yuan family's workshop is built, everyone in our village will go to work there, and they will all become rich. And there will be sweet potatoes and corn. You have won the appreciation of the county magistrate..."
Shen Songqing agreed wholeheartedly and even acted arrogantly.
Liu Daping took a sip of wine and nodded:
"Look at you, how could I not know? I know everything in my heart. Look, our Daliushu Village is getting better and better now. The plague this time was not too serious. It's all thanks to them. I remember it all. I think your niece-in-law might be a lucky star. With her coming, the drought ended, and our lives are getting better and better."
"There aren't many second-rate people in our Daliushu Village, and the people there are united. Things will only get better in the future."
Liu Daping was also very happy, full of visions of a good future and gratitude towards Su Wanwan.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Su Wanwan was the lucky star of their Daliushu Village.
"You're right. Our village will get better and better. Speaking of this idiot, how is He Erzhu doing recently? I just saw his wife coming over. Is there something going on?"
Men are also gossipy. When Shen Songqing got drunk, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"You're talking about her. I don't know what happened to her recently. She suddenly became a different person. She didn't even think about getting a divorce when she was bullied like that before. But this time she came to ask about the divorce. After the divorce, she wants to set up a female household in our Daliushu Village. She came to ask about the situation and whether we can give her the house in the east."
Liu Daping also sighed.
Shen Songqing also sighed:
"It's a good thing to establish a household. Maybe she was stimulated by the death of the coward. It's good this way. If she stayed in that family, she would be beaten to death sooner or later. It's quite brave to establish a female household. But she is hardworking and will not starve to death alone."
Liu Daping nodded:
"That's right. I agreed. It's just that the house is too run-down and no one has lived there for many years. But it's good to be able to move out. I can clean it up and live there. I'm just worried that the divorce won't work out."
Speaking of this, the two old men took a sip of wine.
He Erzhu is now lying on the bed, and the old woman is like crazy again. It would be strange if she agrees to Wang Cui'e's divorce.
"Let Uncle He take care of the He family's affairs. You can just step in when the time comes. If we really let He Erzhu beat his wife to death, where will the face of our Daliushu Village be?"
The two talked for a while, and no one expected that Wang Cui'e would be so determined this time.
After it was confirmed that a female household could be established and a place to live had been found, Wang Cui'e went back to find He Erzhu and proposed a divorce.
He Erzhu naturally disagreed, and as a result, he was beaten by Wang Cui'e that night.
Wang Cui'e had been beaten so many times in the past that she naturally knew how to hit people more painfully, but it was not obvious from the outside.
She seemed to want to beat out all the suffering she had endured over the years. He Erzhu had not yet fully recovered from the plague and his body was weak, so he was knocked unconscious.
As for Old Lady He, she kept screaming and wanted to fight with Wang Cui'e. Wang Cui'e was young after all, so she didn't hold back and simply locked her up in the house, leaving her helpless.
"God damn it, you are rebelling against God, murdering your husband and my son..."
The old lady was crying breathlessly through the door.
