Cannon Fodder Battle Chapter 1238: 6 husbands (19)

The children are still young, and they can't help much, especially Wencheng Wenchun has to help look after the children.

If it weren't for her practice skills, Tong Xinlan would have been unable to clean the house, de-ice the yard, and sweep snow from the roof by herself.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Zhao family brothers sent rice, noodles, and cattle to Han Xinlan's mother and son. When they saw the completely new courtyard, they wondered if they had gone to the wrong place.

Tong Xinlan didn't enthusiastically take the things she had dug out, handed over the invoices with these things written on them to the deliveryman, and led the children back to the yard.

As for what the delivery man will tell the Zhao brothers when he returns home, Tong Xinlan doesn't care.

Anyway, they will always hear from other people how well their unwanted wives and children are doing outside.

At that time, it was too late for them to regret it.

When re-applying for household registration the day before yesterday, Zhao Dalang also asked to change the children's surnames. Tong Xinlan originally had this plan, but he didn't expect Zhao Dalang to bring it up first.

It seems that they are afraid that these children will get involved with the brothers of the Zhao family and delay the two younger brothers who cling to the Yue family to make a fortune and become officials.

If the children change their surnames, then the children really have nothing to do with the Zhao family.

The children have been named after Han Xinlan since yesterday.

When Tong Xinlan solved the problem of living, she began to think of ways to let the child go to a private school in the village.

Actually, Tong Xinlan is capable of teaching children by herself. It can be said that her education level is almost equal to that of the Taifu.

But Han Xinlan can't, so Tong Xinlan can only send her children to private schools in a regular manner.

In this day and age, it is not possible to enter a school if you have money, you have to ask the village head to get in.

Simply, Tong Xinlan is better at being a human being, and she has taken care of Lizheng long ago, so it is easier for the village chief to take care of it.

Wen Cheng didn't want to go to a private school at first. In his opinion, his family didn't have much money, and studying was expensive, so he might as well help out with the work at home.

But Tong Xinlan explained the truth, poured some chicken soup for the soul, and made the child go to school willingly.

Even if Tong Xinlan wants to send Wenchun to school, it is impossible. The restrictions on women in this ancient era are still not loose, and women are not allowed to enter the school.

Wen Chun didn't envy her brother when she saw her going to school. In ancient times, she also knew that girls were not allowed to study.

In such a society, it is useless to force peasant girls to accept too many poems and books that do not belong to women's studies. It is more reliable to teach girls how to housekeeper.

Wen Cheng has already missed the best age for enrolling in school, but he cherishes the hard-won opportunity to study.

Mother has already paid the tuition fee, and took so much money to build relationships. If he doesn't study hard, how can he be worthy of his mother and younger siblings?

My mother said, let him not worry about the money.

However, how could Wen Cheng not be worried?

Winter is over and spring is here, Tong Xinlan can't afford to plant so much land by herself, but she doesn't seem to spend all her time on planting food.

Life experience in ancient times made Tong Xinlan choose to grow herbs.

Gradually, the life of the Han family is getting better and better. Besides Wen Cheng, Wen Xia and Wen Dong also enter the school and start studying.

As the business of planting medicinal materials got better and better, Tong Xinlan began to mobilize the whole village to start planting medicinal materials. Tong Xinlan was not afraid of the selfishness of the villagers and helping outsiders, because only the medicinal seeds cultivated by Tong Xinlan herself were planted. The medicinal materials that come out are excellent.

If someone in the village takes money from outsiders and gives the seeds to outsiders, the herbs grown will not meet Tong Xinlan's standards. Naturally, Tong Xinlan will not rent their land next year, nor will Plant the seeds to the other party again.

In the beginning, people in the village didn't know why Tong Xinlan suddenly stopped giving seeds to a certain family. Later, after seeing the evidence Tong Xinlan found, the villagers would no longer speak for people who did not receive medicinal seeds. up.

And Tong Xinlan also knew that the Zhao family brothers were among the landowners who secretly bought the Chinese herbal medicine seeds that she handed over to the villagers to grow on their behalf.

The three eldest brothers of the Zhao family are all landlords. Although they have a lot of land, they only grow food. After planting food, food is really not a rare thing.

But herbal medicine is different. The cultivation of herbal medicine requires careful cultivation, and the needs of herbal medicine for weather, environment, and rain, if it is not tempting to explain specifically, the things grown will be very different.

In addition, seeds are also very important. How can ordinary people know how to breed and improve better seeds? Only Tong Xinlan understands.

Those aristocratic families that have long monopolized the cultivation of medicinal materials also value their own high-quality seeds and will not sell them to the outside world.

So, even though everyone knows that planting herbs can make a lot of money, not many people are willing to give up growing food and buy expensive herbal seeds to see if they can grow.

However, the ten villages and eight stores here have seen that Han Xinlan's herbal medicine business is getting better and better, and the herbal medicine dealers who deal with Han Xinlan also have many big businessmen who come here from Beijing~IndoMTL.com~Among them, even There are also imperial merchants who specialize in medicine for the palace.

Won't this make everyone in the village red-eyed?

However, it cannot be said that everyone in the village is red-eyed. Ordinary villagers only feel that they are following the right boss. They don't need to sell their land to become tenant farmers of the Han family, and they can get the seeds from the Han family freely. Taking care of medicinal materials can still get wages, which is much better than selling yourself to a landlord as a tenant farmer.

So, ordinary villagers respect the Han family very much, and hope that the Han family will get better and better.

The only ones who are jealous of Han Xinlan are those landlords. Unfortunately, the Zhao brothers are one of them.

Originally, the brothers of the Zhao family were very happy to solve this woman, and Zhao Dalang happily married another wife. His family would not help his concubine, and he would be ridiculed.

So, Zhao Dalang married a new wife, which made Cui Liu hold a grudge, and often had conflicts with Zhao Dalang's main wife.

Tong Xinlan knows that the Zhao family brothers have become more and more dishonest over the years. There is a saying that men become bad when they have money.

In addition to the fourth brother who has not yet obtained the right to head the house, the Zhao family brothers have also found several wives over the years.

There are many wives and concubines in the family, and there are many children, and the wives and concubines love to coax the man to buy things. The money in the family is not spent in a hurry.

So, the brothers of the Zhao family, who were considered well-to-do at first, found that the family's money seemed to be running short.

The thing that makes Tong Xinlan feel funny is that the Zhao family brothers haven't found out about the butler they used to make money from the Zhao family, and they are quite reused when they buy it now.

However, Tong Xinlan did not remind the Zhao family brothers that it was not her home.
