Xia Tiezhu saw Xia Feier's dissatisfaction. He was speechless and twitched the corner of his mouth. He thought, do you think you have good patience? If we hadn't pulled you along in the town yesterday, I don't know what the quarrel would have been.

Like this, but it would be better in the town. After the quarrel, you can leave and no one will know you. But this is in the village. If a girl who has not yet left the government quarrels with others, she will be gossiped about.

Xia Feier seemed to see what Xia Tiezhu was thinking. She glanced at Xia Tiezhu, as if she was too lazy to pay attention to him, and then continued to squat in the field and continue to pull out weeds, but she pulled out the weeds for a long time, and there was no area left.

Pull.

Suddenly she felt something was wrong. She was pulling weeds so hard, but Xia Tiezhu had been sitting on the edge of the field looking around leisurely, with no intention of pulling weeds. Xia Feier stopped and looked at her hair, which was strangled by weeds.

Hong blew with his hand and asked: "Hey, why are you sitting still? Are you planning on having me finish the two acres of land by myself?"

Xia Tiezhu looked at her for a while, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said with a smile: "What do you do with such a big head? I have never seen people farming. Why do people need to pull weeds like this in this wasteland?"

"Tomorrow, let's go ask dad whether we should ask someone to dig it with oxen or bring farm tools to dig it ourselves. Don't pull it out. Let's go home."

Xia Feier was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what she was doing. She almost wanted to jump up and slap this damn Xia Tiezhu. No wonder he just started pulling some grass out of fun, and then sat on the edge of the field without moving.

But Xia Feier wanted to slap herself even more. Yesterday, she felt that after coming here, her brain became smarter, but she became stupid overnight. This grass didn't need to be pulled out by hand. This field hasn't been planted for so long, and there are so many weeds.

, how can the ground be dry, and even if it is clean by people, at least put water in first, and then let cattle or people use farm tools to dig it over. In short, you should not pull weeds by hand.

The third aunt just now was really right. The two of them were so free that they came to pull weeds. Xia Feier stood on the ridge of the field, shook the grass on her body, and shouted angrily at Xia Tiezhu: "

If you didn't tell me earlier, you don't want to go back

Home, let's go, let's go back and help the second brother make the ponytail, and call daddy tomorrow to come and have a look." After Xia Feier finished speaking, she walked towards the thatched house with a depressed look on her face, muttering in her mouth

He muttered and complained about damn Xia Tiezhu.

Xia Tiezhu followed Xia Feier, looking at Xia Feier's face as dark as the bottom of a pot, he laughed for a while and almost laughed out loud. He now felt that it was easy to make this girl laugh, and even easier to make her lose her temper.

But Xia Tiezhu thought it was funny how this girl had a bad temper.

The two of them walked all the way to their home. Xia Feier walked for a while, and her anger was almost gone. Xia Feier has a good personality. Her anger comes and goes quickly, and she never holds grudges.

, even if you lose your temper over something, you won’t always remember it after you lose your temper.

Although she had just been so angry with Xia Tiezhu about pulling up weeds, she had almost forgotten about it all the way. She came back with Xia Tiezhu, and while looking at the fields along the road, she asked Xia Tiezhu about the fields in the village.

Seeing that most of the fields in the village seemed to be concentrated in one place, and she also knew that most of the people in the village farmed on sharecrops, this area should belong to which landowner's family.

She and Xia Tiezhu were planning to wait until they went to the landlord's house to pay the rent this year to see if they could rent some land and farm it. With just these two acres of land, apart from paying the rent, the food at home would definitely not be enough.

Xia Tiezhu heard that she wanted to share the land for farming. He neither agreed nor objected. He just told her about the fields in detail: "Basically all the fertile land in the village belongs to the landlord Zhao in the village. We want all the land to be farmed."

It was their family's sharecropping. The two acres of land now belong to their family. My mother signed the contract when she was here.

The contract for several years has expired this year. I paid the rent in the first few years, but I haven't paid the rent in the past two years. Moreover, the fields have been left vacant. I'm afraid they won't rent them to us anymore. Besides, we

There isn’t that much rent to pay, so if you plan to rent more, others may not be willing to rent.”

This Xia Feier has thought of it. Since he plans to get a share of the land, the rent must be handed over to others. As for the vacant land, it must be taken care of immediately, and he is still waiting to grow food this season.

, but as for whether the landlord's family would continue to share the land with them, she didn't know what to do. She wanted to see how the landlord's family was doing.

Xia Feier thought about it and asked: "Why aren't everyone in the village surnamed Liu? Why is the big landowner in the village surnamed Zhao? Are they also outsiders? And they are the only family in the village with tenants."

come out?"

Xia Tiezhu shook his head and said uncertainly: "Well, yes, it seems that people said that Landlord Zhao's family moved here from other places. It seems that the family is in business or someone was an official in the past. Anyway, now we are in Fenghuang Village.

Their family has the most fields, and their family is also easier to talk to. Sometimes some people default on their rent due to family difficulties, but their family will not come to press them, and everyone in the village is willing to live in their house as tenants."

This Xia Feier has guessed something. For example, her own family belongs to those who are in difficulty. They have been delayed in paying the rent for two years, and no one has come to ask for it. It can be seen that the landlord is not a bad person.

.

However, this is somewhat inconsistent with Xia Feier's image of landlords. When she was studying in her previous life, the book mentioned some landlords such as Huang Shiren. From then on, the word landlord had a derogatory connotation in Xia Feier's mind.

I always felt that ancient landlords either oppressed long-term workers or exploited tenants, but I didn’t expect that landlords were still good.

Thinking about it, Xia Feier became a little curious about this landlord. She asked, "Where is Landlord Zhao's family? Does he also live in our village?"

"Well, do you see a big house in the distance? That's Landlord Zhao's home." Xia Tiezhu said, pointing to a very grand-looking house in the distance.

Xia Feier followed his finger and saw that the house was relatively far away. From here, because the front was blocked by some houses, only the tiles and beams on the roof could be seen. Looking at it from a distance, everything

I know it's not something ordinary people can afford to live in, but still, as someone who is known as the lord of the land, the house he lives in must be somewhat grand.

Xia Feier nodded, indicating that she understood. She was about to call Xia Tiezhu back to calculate the rent for these two acres of land in the past two years, when she suddenly heard a voice coming from behind: "Tiezhu, Fei'er

Girl, you are here just in time, I am about to go to your house to ask your sister-in-law for money, please wait for me, I will go with you."

Xia Feier originally thought that it wouldn't be the third aunt again, but she turned her head following the voice and saw an old woman in her fifties or sixties walking towards them. The old woman was wearing a suit that turned white after washing.

He was wearing coarse cloth clothes and his gray hair was pulled back by a wooden hairpin. His tone of voice when he spoke to them was not very good, and his expression was not very good-looking either.

Xia Feier searched around in her mind and couldn't find any memory about this person, but Xia Feier guessed from her words that she should be her grandmother Yu.

Because sister Yuanxiang said yesterday that her grandma would come to their house to ask for pension money in the next few days, but she didn't expect that she would come so soon. Sure enough, after hearing the sound, Xia Tiezhu also turned around and saw someone shouting

He said: "Milk."

Xia Feier also shouted, but Mrs. Yu didn't respond to them. She just made a slight snort from her nose, then looked at Xia Feier with an extremely dissatisfied look and said, "Girl Feier, what's going on with your family?"

It's okay, if you don't want to be filial to our two elders when we have good things at home, forget it. This pension money has been delaying me for several months. This is going to starve me and your father to death. If so, you should have said it earlier.

, I’m going to ask the old people in the village to give me a review and let them see if your family is still a human being, and you don’t even want to support such an old man.”

Mrs. Yu complained loudly and hurtfully as soon as she spoke. Xia Feier frowned and thought to herself, you are still so angry, we will starve to death and you are not dead yet.

, what a fart call.

Xia Feier glanced at her, ignored her, and turned her face away. Fortunately, Xia Feier used to be a little afraid of Mrs. Yu, and rarely talked to her. Mrs. Yu looked at Xia Feier like this, but she didn't like it.

She didn't find it strange, but turned to Xia Tiezhu aside and said, "Tiezhu, let's go, I'll go back with you to ask your sister-in-law for money." For some reason, Yu's tone was better when talking to Xia Tiezhu.

.

After Mrs. Yu finished speaking, she raised her legs and walked forward. Xia Tiezhu stopped her and said, "Mistress, my sister-in-law is not at home. She must have gone back to her parents' home. You can ask her for it in a few days."

"Ah? Not there?" Mrs. Yu stopped, frowned, and asked with a look of disbelief.

Xia Tiezhu nodded and remained silent.

After hearing this, Mrs. Yu shouted: "Tie Zhu, tell the truth, did your sister-in-law tell you to say this, deliberately not wanting to give pension money? Tie Zhu, you can't lie to me. Nai is usually the worst."

I love you."

Xia Tiezhu seemed to have gotten used to the way Yu spoke. He didn't have any special expression and said: "Nay, if you don't believe me, just go home and see for yourself. Fei'er and I have something to do, let's go first.

.”

After Xia Tiezhu finished speaking, regardless of Yu's attitude, he took Xia Feier's arm and walked forward. The two of them walked a few steps when they heard Yu behind them start to curse: "Tie Zhu, you idiot

You naughty kid, you actually talk to me like this. Look, I didn’t tell your father and asked him to come back and beat you to death. This damn rich man is not a human being. He doesn’t even care about his parents. He is willing to use money to gamble without being filial to us. Look.

It would be best for him to die on the gambling table one day, and I will treat him as a child..."

Mrs. Yu kept scolding her, and when Xia Feier and Xia Tiezhu were far away, she still seemed to hear her scolding her father, Xia Fugui, and the words she cursed later were extremely vicious, and she wished she could curse Xia Fugui to death on the spot.
