Seeing Ning Youzhi's sad face, Ning Pengpeng couldn't help but ask.
"What about the people in the next village?
They are also people who go to do corvee labor. Isn’t there enough manpower?
For example, in your daughter-in-law's natal village, there are several other daughter-in-law's natal villages, are they all in the same situation as our Dahuaishu Village?"
Hearing Ning Pengpeng's words, Ning Youzhi's face was dull for a moment.
Then I immediately reacted, yes!
In Dahuaishu Village, because of Ning Pengpeng, every household can be said to have earned a lot of money, so they were reluctant to let the men in the family risk their lives by doing corvee labor.
But those in the neighboring village are not as lucky as Dahuaishu Village.
Almost all of them live by tightening their belts, especially those from poor families with several brothers.
If you stay at home, you might as well do corvee labor, at least your food will be in the hands of the official!
"My aunt is absolutely right, my vision is too narrow!
We should continue to do what we did in the past, thinking that the wealth will not go to outsiders, and the money will always be earned by the people in our own village.
But I didn't expect that today is different from the past.
I immediately went to find Ms. Yang and her daughter-in-law, and asked them to go to her parents’ village to inquire about this matter."
Ning Youzhi slapped his head and said with joy.
Not only his family can do this, but other families who are unwilling to do corvee work and are willing to spend money can also do this.
Ning Pengpeng glanced at Boss Ning and realized that her cheap sons were either married to people from the town or from the village.
"Boss, you should come with me too."
Their family had to find at least four families to help replace the corvee, which was not an easy task.
Moreover, it is impossible to ask someone to do corvee service without paying a penny.
Ning Youzhi's daughters-in-law are willing to take the boss to find someone in their village, which is already very good, but they can't let them pay for it.
Mrs. Yang was willing to go to her natal family to find someone. After all, one of her family members had to work as a corvee, and she would feel bad wherever she went. After all, they were all her biological sons.
Zhou Hui and Cui Jing were a little unhappy. The family only needed to find someone to take over the corvée service, and the mother-in-law could go back to her parents' home alone. What was the point of calling them in?
Therefore, the father-in-law asked them to take people to their village quickly, but they were a little reluctant.
When Ning Youzhi was about to lose his temper, Shi Xianglan jumped out.
"Dad, why don't you let Uncle Youfu go to our village?"
Ning Youzhi glanced at Shi Xianglan and suddenly remembered that Shi Xianglan's natal village was close to the mountain. If you go a little further, you will soon become a mountain dweller!
If Yongping hadn't seen eye to eye with her, she wouldn't have agreed to Yongping marrying such a daughter-in-law.
However, after Shi Xianglan came in, she was very obedient, sensible and diligent.
Ning Youzhi had almost forgotten about Shi Xianglan's natal family. After all, Shi Xianglan was virtuous enough to marry a virtuous wife.
In addition, the Shi family is not the kind of family that bites meat when it smells it, and it is a bit far away from Dahuaishu Village. After Shi Xianglan got married, she never went back except during the New Year.
As a father-in-law, he would naturally not ask about his daughter-in-law's family affairs.
Now when Shi Xianglan said it, he remembered it.
There are eight brothers from Guangshi Xianglan’s mother’s side!
"Okay, you can go to your natal village with your blessing and ask.
I also went to look for people who were unwilling to do corvee work and were willing to pay money to find out whether they found someone by themselves or if I helped them find someone!"
Ning Youzhi nodded to Shi Xianglan and stopped looking at Zhou and Cui.
This made them, who were originally unhappy, freeze on the spot, neither advancing nor retreating.
Ning Pengpeng asked Shi Xianglan where her natal family was in Shiqiao Village. It was at least thirty miles away from here.
After thinking about it, he told Ning Youfu to go back and see if his carriage had been unloaded?
Even after it was removed, I asked the third child to help install it, and then came over to take Shi Xianglan and Ning Yongping to Shiqiao Village.
When they heard Ning Pengpeng said that they would take Shi Xianglan back to her parents' home in a carriage, Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Cui immediately looked at each other, their eyes full of annoyance.
If they had known that they would be treated like this, they would definitely be willing to return to their parents' home!
After all, if you can get on the carriage and go back to your parents' home, your parents' face will be brightened.
Not only were Zhou and Cui's eyes full of envy and jealousy, but Yang was also slightly unhappy in her heart.
Although her natal family was right next door to Dahuaishu Village, Ning Pengpeng didn't even ask Ning Youfu to take her for a ride, which made people really hard to feel happy.
Just when I was thinking this, I heard Ning Pengpeng say again.
"Let our second son take Mrs. Yang to her natal village in a bullock cart!
Although the horse-drawn carriage is fast, it is too bumpy and not as stable as an ox-cart."
Ning Pengpeng didn't know Yang's inner slander at all, and only wanted to save others by herself. After all, she had really suffered when she took a carriage from Anzhen to Huxian!
When Mr. Ning went back to drive the carriage over, he happened to meet Mr. Ning who had brought Liu Hu to see Ning Pengpeng.
Ning Laoer directly ordered him to drive the bullock cart and send Yang to her parents' home.
Ning Youzhi was naturally filled with gratitude. Although Yang felt that the ox-cart was not as impressive as the horse-drawn carriage, it was still better than walking back on two legs, and his face finally looked better.
After Ning Pengpeng arranged all this, he called Liu Hu to go back with him.
Along the way, Ning Pengpeng didn't speak, and Liu Hu didn't complain casually.
When they arrived at the door of the house, they saw Ning Laosi still kneeling there, motionless no matter how Zhao Juan tried to persuade him.
"Fourth, even though you don't treat me like a mother, you should just ignore what I tell you.
However, you were born to me after all, so this time I asked your eldest brother to find someone to take your place in the corvee service, and yours was also found!
This time, it is the last thing that I, a mother, will do for you.
After all, you are old and I can’t control you, and I don’t want to control you anymore. You can take care of yourself from now on!”
Ning Pengpeng did not call Ning Laosi to get up, but stood in front of him, spoke earnestly and sadly, then turned around and led Liu Hu into the yard.
After hearing this, Ning Laosi burst into tears. He walked to Ning Pengpeng's door, patted the courtyard door, and cried that I was wrong.
Ning Pengpeng's originally sad face disappeared without a trace after entering the door.
She would not be heartbroken over such a fork!
"From now on, the fourth child and his family, no matter who comes, are not allowed to enter our front door, do you hear me?"
Liu Huruo said that he was a little aggrieved before, but now that he saw the old lady's resolute handling, the aggrievedness in his heart immediately dissipated.
"Yes, old lady."
Ning Peng Pengquan pretended not to hear the cries at the gate. After entering the yard, he first went to see Qing Niang and saw that everything was settled, and then nodded with satisfaction.
Then he went back to his house and sorted out all the things he had bought these days and put them away.
Especially there was an extra box in her little vault.
What's in the box is exactly what Pei Yan gave him before.
