34 Li Jingjing was pleased to get the title deed
The three grandparents heard the familiar voice and went out to greet each other with a smile.
Qu Kuaishou carried a bulging package in each hand, and Deng carried a bamboo basket containing items in each hand.
Qu asked, "Why did my brother and sister-in-law bring so many things?" ”
Qu Kuaishou winked and said in a low voice: "Come into the house and talk." ”
Deng put the bamboo basket directly into the kitchen.
Several people sat down in the hall, and Li Jingjing served tea to Qu Kuaishou and his wife.
Qu Kuaishou said very sincerely: "Sister, this is some of the things I bought in the town with your sister-in-law yesterday, thank you for giving medicine and ideas to help Chang Chang and Duo keep their reputation." ”
The day before yesterday, he discussed with the other five Xiucai elders, he and Qu are brother and sister, and Qu will definitely not accept it if he gives fifty taels of silver, so he will buy gifts to thank you.
The four families did a low-key job of giving money and gifts, not wanting the people in the village to know about it, but also to protect the female Zhuge He family.
Qu said angrily: "It's all a family, what are you polite about." ”
Deng Shi followed with many words of gratitude from the bottom of his heart, and Qu Shi nodded and accepted the gift.
He said naturally: "Uncle and aunt are having dinner at my house at noon tonight, and I will call my nephew and daughter-in-law over." ”
Deng nodded and said, "Okay." Go call her. She likes to talk to you the most now, and looks forward to having the right dragon and phoenix fetus like you! ”
Qu Kuaishou said: "Twins and twins are good." ”
He smiled and went out to call Xiao Deng. The heart says: Twins are not something that anyone can conceive. I got pregnant because my family had this inheritance.
Qu said: "Brother, I have something to ask you for help. He beckoned Li Jingjing to sit on her lap, hugged her and smiled: "Sister Jing, you repeat what you just told us." ”
Li Jingjing smiled and said: "I want a medicine room, a small warehouse for storing medicines, an acre of medicine fields, and a brick and tile circle for raising medicine beasts." ”
Deng looked surprised.
Qu Kuaishou said very happily: "Okay! I'm going to set aside an acre of land for the clan this afternoon, and I'll find someone to build you a medicine room, a warehouse, and a brick and tile circle. ”
Qu said with a smile: "Brother, I paid for the money, bricks, and stones, and the helpers who came to build the house did not cover ten copper plates a day. ”
Deng made a rough calculation in his heart, now that the price of land has risen, the land that can grow live medicinal herbs must be good land, at least ten taels of silver per mu, the material cost of the medicine room, warehouse, and brick and tile circle is less than thirty taels of silver, the labor cost is three taels of silver, plus the furniture in the medicine room, the total is about forty-five taels of silver.
With so much money, ordinary people in the village are enough to build two houses, buy acres of land, and marry a guest.
Qu Changchang and Qu Duo's one-year maintenance fees, food and housing expenses in the county academy only add up to thirty taels of silver.
She couldn't help but say, "Sister, your family is really a spoiled girl." ”
Li Jingjing said with a smile: "Uncle and grandfather promised to help me find land and people, and he also spoiled me." ”
Qu Kuaishou was excited with joy, and then went to the old patriarch to ask for land.
Half an hour later, Qu Kuaishou came back happily and said with a smile: "Sister Jing, the patriarch has spoken, the wasteland in the front yard, backyard, and end of the village belongs to you, and you won't accept a copper plate, so let your grandmother go to his house to get the title deed in the afternoon." ”
Li Jingjing was devastated when she heard the joy, the vacant land in the front and back yards of the house was half an acre, and the wasteland at the end of the village was next to the mountain, and it was visually estimated that there were more than two acres.
Qu was first overjoyed, and then asked: "The land at the end of the village can be farmed, how can you not give money to my family?" ”
Qu Kuaishou said excitedly: "Sister, you have forgotten, the Zhang family used to live at the end of the village, and more than ten years ago, their family fled to the county and was killed by the officers and soldiers of the former dynasty as a rebel, and their heads were hung at the gate of the county seat. ”
Qu's eyes were confused, as if he was reminiscing.
Qu Kuaishou continued: "His house and land have always been deserted, and the people in the clan think that it is unlucky, and no one wants to buy it. The year before last, the county measured the land, and my cousin told him about his family's land, and it was classified as waste land by the county officials. Of course, the wasteland didn't need money to buy it, so Uncle Cousin gave it to Sister Jing. ”
Li Jingjing smiled and hugged Qu Kuaishou's thigh and shouted, "Great." Uncle and grandfather are so powerful, as soon as they get out of the horse, they will help me get a piece of land for nothing! ”
Qu Kuaishou said: "Uncle and grandfather don't have much credit, if you want to thank the patriarch, thank the patriarch." He asked again: "Sister Jing, everyone in the clan thinks that piece of land is unlucky, are you afraid?" ”
Li Jingjing shook her head and said, "I grow medicinal herbs and raise medicinal beasts in that field, and I don't live there, so I'm not afraid." But I don't know if my herbs and medicinal beasts will be afraid. ”
He Shi smiled: "I haven't even gotten the title deed, so I will return your herbs and medicine beasts." ”
Li Jingjing said confidently: "You wait and see, in less than two years, I will have a lot of medicinal herbs and medicinal beasts." ”
Xiao Deng sat and listened, the needlework in his hand did not stop, and he couldn't help but ask kindly: "Sister Jing, three acres of land is still used to grow medicinal herbs, how can you cultivate it alone?" ”
He smiled mysteriously: "Sister Jing has a lot of ideas." Then you will know the way. ”
Xiao Deng asked very curiously, "Do you want to invite people from the clan?" ”
Qu Kuai vaguely had an answer in his palm, but he didn't dare to be sure.
The two families had lunch, and Qu Kuaishou accompanied the Qu family to the old patriarch's house to get the land deed.
He counted the gifts brought by Qu Kuaishou and his wife at home.
The two bamboo baskets contained a four-pound cured dog leg, a preserved chicken, a preserved duck, four dried fruits, and four packets of dim sum.
The two large parcels contained three pieces of silk cloth, eight pieces of fine cotton cloth, a golden hairpin inlaid with pearl and butterfly wings, a pair of silver hairpins inlaid with small strings of pearls.
He picked up the golden hairpin with pearl butterfly wings and looked at it, the appearance and style were no less than the gold hairpin worn on Lin's head during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and said softly: "Uncle and aunt are really expensive." ”
Li Jingjing put a pair of silver hairpins on the head of her bun and ran to the bedroom to look for a bronze mirror.
The little girl in the mirror has a sea on her forehead, white porcelain-like skin, a pair of big apricot eyes on her goose-egg-shaped face, eyes as bright as stars, long curly eyelashes, a slightly upturned small nose, and a rose-red cherry mouth.
Her black hair was combed in a double bun, and each bun was inserted with a short silver hairpin, and the hairpin head was decorated with six tiny pearls like orange seeds, and her wealth was full of playfulness.
In a blink of an eye, she has changed from a nursing baby to a beautiful girl with a beautiful face.
Qu's laughing voice sounded from behind, "Sister Jing is wearing a hairpin here, is it smelly and beautiful?" ”
Li Jingjing turned around and saw Qu holding two pieces of paper in his hand, and said happily: "Grandma, have you got the title deed back?" ”
Qu handed the title deed to Li Jingjing and said with a smile: "Look at the name, right?" ”
Li Jingjing looked at the title deed stamped with the old patriarch's handprint and Qujia Village's seal, and the owner of the title deed on the top actually wrote her name.
Qu Shi stretched out his hand to stroke Li Jingjing's hair, and said with a smile: "Quietly put it away, this is the dowry that grandma gave you." In the future, the medicinal herbs and medicinal beasts in the field will be yours. You save well. ”
"Grandma was so nice to me." Li Jingjing hugged Qu Shi with emotion.
Qu smiled: "You are also very good to me. The spots on grandma's face and hands are all gone with the medicine you made. I drank the autumn pear paste you boiled, and I didn't cough on the fire all winter. You insist on soaking my feet in medicinal herbs every day, invigorating blood, helping sleep, and maintaining my skin. ”
The mother-in-law and grandson collected the title deed and went to the hall. Qu gave the golden hairpin to He, and he left a turquoise-inlaid flower.
He said sincerely: "Mother, this golden hairpin is kept for the sick and married as a dowry." ”
Qu put the golden hairpin in He's hand and smiled: "I see that you put it on, you can take it." ”
On the way to the old patriarch's house just now, Qu Kuaishou told her, your daughter-in-law is a hundred times stronger than my daughter-in-law, even if you go to the rich and noble family of Tanzhou Mansion to be a wife.
Li Yunxiao ran over from the courtyard and snatched the golden hairpin from He's hand, stomped his feet and shouted, "Why didn't my uncle and grandma buy me a gift?" ”
Qu hurriedly grabbed it and shouted, "Little ancestor good grandson, give me your mother's golden hairpin." ”
Li Jingjing pointed to the eleven pieces of colorful fabrics on the table of the Eight Immortals, and shouted: "Xiao Yanzi, my uncle and grandpa have bought you gifts, you see this cloth, two pieces are for you to make clothes and pants, and my grandmother and mother and I only have one, and we can only make one." ”
Only then did Li Yunxiao return the golden hairpin to Qu's family, and ran out happily.
He Shi stretched out his hand and poked Li Jingjing's forehead, and chuckled: "You are a little clever, you can make your second brother happy with a few words." ”
Li Jingjing took out a piece of tender yellow silk from a pile of cloth, took it to herself, and said with a smile: "Who called him stupider than me, I don't know that silk and silver hairpins are much more expensive than cloth." ”
