Chapter 201 A group of brothers who retired wanted to enter the village
Mr. Du didn't care: "It doesn't matter, I have already discussed it with my husband, our family is just a small family, I am afraid that we won't be able to get used to it if a bunch of servants and maids follow us in.
Isn't it better to do everything yourself? Why do you have to wait for others to serve you like a useless person? If you can't bear this little hardship as my wife, then you'd better not marry me.
Look at the young girls and wives in our village, as well as the aunts, who are not busy all day long? They are all from the village, so how can one be more noble than the other? "
It was the first time that Ye Shiyi heard someone say this, and he was stunned. He felt that his brother was right. The difference between people actually lies in their different births. Some are born noble, and some are born humble.
If noble people were replaced by lowly ones, they might even live worse than these lowly bodies.
Indeed, Du Wanwan, Du Jiang, and Yao Meixian had no intention of buying a new wedding room for their eldest son. In their eyes, the backyard of the People's Hospital was large, and Du Wenjun had his own room, which was enough for a wedding room.
In the past, all the brothers lived together in their hometown. The eldest daughter of the Chu family probably wouldn't say anything, because she was a good girl who knew the big picture and was modest.
If they really can't adapt, they can buy a house to settle them. The houses in Liang County are not expensive, so they can buy one if they want.
She had invested a lot of money in her son's farm, but she made a lot of money. Yao Meixian already had nearly 10,000 taels of silver in her hands. But she was used to being frugal and was reluctant to spend it on lavish feasts.
She had to save some for the children, so that they could help them if they encountered any unpleasant situations. Her mother-in-law always told her that she had to save the money she earned when the weather was fine, in case she couldn't earn it when it rained.
Now the Liangjun City of the Great Wei is relatively stable, and business can be done freely, but who knows what will happen in the future? If it weren't for my daughter's help, I might not have been able to get to this place.
If she had money in her hand at that time, would she have been so nervous?
They had already informed the Chu family, and the old lady didn't say anything, so they just assumed that they tacitly agreed.
When Du Wenjun and Ye Shiyi arrived at the yard Du Wanwan mentioned, they were dumbfounded. The yard was full of messy things, all kinds of things, piled together.
Feeling that one trip would not be enough to carry all the goods, the two of them loaded a truck and went to the village, where they found Kang Dawei and explained the matter briefly.
Kang Dawei waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. When the people who went out come back in the evening, I will bring people to get everything back and make sure that the prince's yard is clean."
Du Wenjun smiled and nodded, "Okay, Uncle Kang, you decide. Arrange the things, too. Remember, make the best use of them. After all, we are from poor families, so three meals a day, simple food and tea are enough for us.
It's good enough to have a bed that is not windy or rainy at night. We don't need to be particular about this or that. We are bringing such a large group of people, so we have to plan carefully. "
Kang Dawei looked at this mature young man and was filled with emotion: "Mr. Du! With you leading our farm, I guarantee that everyone will have a good life. Old Kang would like to thank you.
I just want to discuss something with you. A group of brothers retired not long ago. Knowing that our village is doing well, they all want to join us. Do you think it's okay?"
Du Wenjun glanced at Kang Dawei and said, "Uncle Kang! You are the one who makes the decision on this matter. If you say it's okay, then we can do it. Anyway, you are the one who manages the people here, and I don't understand it. I am only responsible for finding ways to find a way out for everyone, and I don't care about the rest.
Logically, we are all brothers who have fought together and risked our lives, so we should take care of them as much as possible. I don’t have any other skills, but I think I can earn three meals a day for everyone.”
After hearing Du Wenjun's words, Kang Dawei immediately stood up and saluted him: "Mr. Du! I, Kang, would like to thank you on behalf of everyone.
Don't worry! As long as you come, I will make sure everything is arranged properly. We don't have many good fields in our village, but we have a lot of mountains.
I heard that people in Lijia Village can grow medicinal herbs on the mountain. Let me go back and ask Doctor Du if we can grow them on our farm as well."
"Of course it can be done. Uncle Kang! Your idea is great." Du Wenjun's eyes lit up and he slapped his thigh. "Oh! Why didn't I think of it? Let my sister come and take a look at the mountain on our farm tomorrow and plant whatever is suitable. Uncle Kang! The older you are, the wiser you are. With your suggestion, all our problems have been solved."
The two agreed, and Kang Dawei and Du Wenjun both laughed. Ever since Du Wenjun came to the village, created so many interesting things, and led everyone to avoid hunger and cold, Kang Dawei regarded him as his master.
In the past, he was in good health and was the personal guard of Pingyang Hou, who was his master at that time. Later, he became disabled and retired. When he came to the manor, he was completely in the dark and didn't understand anything. He felt that he was rootless and incompetent.
He felt empty inside all day, not knowing where to go. The Marquis gave him a chance and such a big farm, but he couldn't even provide three meals a day for everyone.
What kind of personal guard is he? He is a disgrace to the Marquis.
Later, Mr. Du came and brought him surprises and unexpected events, allowing him to see hope and light. The problem of food and clothing for more than 3,000 people that had been bothering him was completely solved.
A few days ago, several brothers who had retired and couldn't make it outside came to him, wanting to come and work on the farm. They also told him that a group of people who had retired at the same time outside had lost their jobs.
They have incomplete limbs and cannot do heavy work, and they don't have any other life skills, so they really can't find any jobs outside.
The little pension given by the court can only solve the problem for a period of time, and after that, one still has to find a way out on his own.
Looking at those brothers in ragged clothes and with lifeless eyes, Kang Dawei felt pity in his heart. He used to be as desperate as them. If the Marquis hadn't bought this manor to settle them, he didn't know what kind of life he would have lived.
But he didn't dare to make the decision alone. After all, it was Master Du who came up with the plan, and he was just the executor. If he wanted to take someone in, he had to get Master Du's approval before he dared to take him in.
That's more than 300 people, not more than 30. If they come and do a good job, they might bring their families with them to settle down here, so it's better to tell him first.
With so many more people, the original house is definitely not big enough to accommodate them. Fortunately, there is a piece of vacant land next to it. Mr. Du said that it was planned to be used to build houses for future generations.
"Mr. Du! There are 305 of them in total. Where will they stay if they all come?" Kang Dawei asked cautiously.
Du Wenjun disagreed: "The housing problem is not easy to say. Let's arrange for all the places to live first, and if there is no room, we can build a house. Don't we still have money in the account? Take it out first, and if it's not enough, tell me, and I will go home and find my parents to think of a solution."
