Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 61 Want a Piece of the Pie (1)

Seeing that Jane was gone, Grandma San couldn't help complaining to Lian Fangzhou, saying what if he didn't come back if he left?

Lian Fangqing hurriedly said without waiting for her sister to answer: "Brother Ah Jian is not such a person! He will definitely not come back!"

The third aunt said: "Oh, what's impossible? This is not his home! The Zhao family is so beggars, and the wages may be more than ours!"

Lian Fangzhou said lightly: "If he wants to leave like this, can we keep it?"

The third auntie was speechless and muttered: "If this is the case, the charcoal seller will not give him a penny!"

Lian Fangzhou rolled his eyes secretly, but did not speak.

Lian Che said: "We're nothing, but the second brother is still practicing martial arts with brother Ajian!"

Lian Ze hurriedly said: "I am like Qing'er, I believe that Brother Jian will definitely come back!" After a while, he said: "If he doesn't come back, that's exactly what my sister said..."

Lian Fangzhou smiled at him and said, "If you still want to practice martial arts, that's fine. Let's talk to him and let him still teach you. I believe he won't refuse."

Lian Ze frowned and said, "If that's the case, I won't learn from him!"

Lian Fangzhou said seriously: "Why?"

Lian Ze was speechless.

Lian Fangzhou said: "I know what you mean, it must be that he is not authentic, so he refuses to learn, right?"

Lian Ze was startled, then nodded lightly.

Lian Fangzhou then said: "It depends on people's intentions, not on superficial things. We have seen what kind of person Ah Jian is these days. If he wants to stay in the Zhao family, he must have his reasons. This matter made him black and white! You said that?"

Things in this world are not black or white. Lian Ze has always been too upright, and Lian Fangzhou has long wanted to find an opportunity to educate him.

Seeing that he didn't say a word, he left Ajian in the county town to make it easier to find out the information. Lian Ze was stunned and said, "If that's the case, then, then it's really no wonder he!"

"You just understand!" Lian Fangzhou smiled.

After breakfast, the four siblings went into the mountains. Lian Ze and Lian Fangzhou were chopping charcoal and wood, while Lian Fangqing and Lian Che were not idle and helped with the transportation. Originally, Lian Fangzhou didn't want the two of them to come, but they insisted on going up the mountain, so Lian Fangzhou had no choice but to let them go. Or help or play as they please.

Not long after noon, Ah Jian came.

The three of Lian Ze were greatly relieved, and Lian Fangqing flew over to take A Jian's hand and said happily, "Brother A Jian, you are finally back!"

A Jian touched her little head and smiled, then glanced at Lian Fangzhou.

Even Fangzhou was subconsciously relieved, nodded and smiled at him: "Is the matter resolved?"

A Jian simply said "um" without saying anything else.

Even Fangzhou didn't ask any more questions, he smiled and said, "That's good, it's a hassle to avoid confusion after all!"

The second round of charcoal came out very quickly. With the experience of the last time, I could grasp the time more accurately this time, not only the charcoal yield was higher, but also a total of two days were saved.

The two families kept chopping and burning charcoal and burning wood like the storage of grain. The flat ground next to the charcoal kiln was like a hill. After the charcoal in the kiln was picked up, it could be installed in the kiln after hanging for a long time. It was very convenient.

This trip to the four kilns produced a total of more than 5,000 catties of charcoal, which is 112 taels of silver, and a family can share five or six taels.

One by one, the dark and shiny charcoal was carried to the house, and everyone had a smile on their face.

Zhao Shi even laughed so hard that he could not see his teeth but his eyes, thinking in his heart that he should pull off two good clothes, buy a silver hairpin, and a pair of silver earrings for Chinese New Year...

Just returning home from the mountain that day, Lian Li and Mrs. Qiao called out, "Is anyone there!" and broke in directly.

Lian Fangzhou glanced at the clearly prepared posture, and knew in his heart that the two must be waiting at the door, and he would come as soon as he got home.

She raised her hand and pulled her loose hair together. She smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt are so busy! Please sit down!"

Lian Fangzhou had already guessed what they were here for. After all, the matter of burning charcoal with Aunt Zhang's family was not deliberately hidden from anyone--in fact, there was no way to hide it.

Lian Li snorted and sat down. Qiao Shi rolled her eyes at her and sat down as well.

"Do you still have any elders in your eyes? We are here, and we don't even have a cup of tea!" Qiao Shi was dissatisfied.

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Lian Che and Lian Fangqing had already brought two cups of tea.

Lian Fangqing pouted and said, "Auntie, does it take time to make tea? We didn't guess that you were ready! Why are you so anxious!"

Qiao Shi suddenly became boring, snorted and didn't speak.

How could she think that these furry children in the second room would take the initiative to pour tea for them? She couldn't wait to speak, just to seize their shortcomings and take advantage of the situation to teach them a lesson, and she would be more confident in what she said next.

Who knows, it fell short.

"It's just you!" Lian Li obviously realized this, gave Qiao Shi a stern look, and said to Lian Fangzhou kindly: "Your aunt is a straight-talker, don't pay attention to her!"

Lian Fangzhou laughed, glanced at Qiao Shi, and said "oh" leisurely.

Qiao Shi was so angry that she gave her a blank look.

Lian Li picked up the teacup and drank the tea without thinking. He was waiting for Lian Fangzhou to speak. After Lian Fangzhou asked them what they were here for, he could talk about the situation.

But Lian Fangzhou's eyelids drooped slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't mean to speak at all.

The three Lian Ze brothers and sisters and A Jian left early, and the third aunt did not come out of the kitchen.

Sitting is not a problem, even Li couldn't, so he coughed lightly and said, "Fangzhou, I heard that you and the Li family have partnered to burn charcoal?"

Lian Fangzhou raised his head, Chong Lianli nodded "um", and then stopped.

Lian Li couldn't help being a little angry, and said unhappily, "The Li family didn't know how to burn charcoal before. Where did you learn this?"

"I don't know about this either!" Lian Fangzhou laughed. There is no adult in his own family, Ajian is an outsider and can't stand up. It is said to the outside world that Uncle Li learned to burn charcoal from other places. Of course, the money they received from the outside world was not much.

Aunt Zhang's family often helps Lian Fangzhou and the others, and it is not unusual to do so this time.

Seeing that Lian Li had hit two soft nails in a row, Mrs. Qiao was even more unhappy, so he hummed, "How much is the Li family paying you? I said that their family is too much, coaxing you to help them work! You guys Siblings and brothers and sisters are so stupid and exhausted, I'm afraid they can't even earn a fraction! This is bullying you young and not taking us as uncles and aunts seriously!"

A posture of going to call the shots for them and go to Li's house to make a scene.
