Chapter 119: Inquiring

Autumn is crisp and it's a good day.

The village is busy at this time, but the Jin family has been the easiest year ever.

Not to mention that there is a cow in the family who can go to the field, Yongxin did not have to come back from the autumn harvest in previous years, and now he can also harvest rice in the field.

There is also Zheng Kuan, the Zheng family makes a living by planting flowers, since he married Jin Hai, as long as the Jin family is busy working in the field, he will come to help uninvited, which also makes the Lu family more and more optimistic about this future son-in-law, not to mention others, that is, people are willing to work, and no matter how bad the future is, it will not be much worse.

What makes the Jin family different is that this year, Jin Liu's father-in-law He Ming also came to the door, not only came to the door, but also brought his scalpers, saying that he was here to help.

Now, there are only nine acres of fertile land, five acres of dry land, and two cows, and in less than two days, all the grain in the field will be harvested.

"Be careful on the road, come over if you have nothing to do in the future, it is inconvenient for Jin Liu to go out with a child in her belly, we are also worried, you come and tell us about her situation." Shu's advice in every possible way, I don't know what happened to He's house a few days ago, after coming back, Jin Erlang and his family were smiling, and the worry in their eyes was not obvious, and now the words of advice are from the heart.

"Don't worry, mother, when I'm busy for a while, I'll come to the door, Liu'er's body is more solid, I'll take her back with me, she is also very homesick." He Ming sat on the ox cart and said.

"Okay, okay, then you should slow down on the road." Shu Shi waved his hand until the ox cart disappeared and then turned back to the courtyard.

Lu Shi looked at this scene, muttering vigorously beside her, she couldn't figure out what kind of soup the people of the He family had poured into Erlang and his family, but they only went to the door once, and the change was so big.

Compared with her own son-in-law, it is at least down-to-earth. The people of the He family are wilted and wilted, and they don't know what the hell they are thinking behind their backs.

Jin Jiang instructed the others to put all the grain in the cellar, she planned this time, the family only planned to sell a small half of the grain, except for the food left for her own family, and then give some to the younger brother's family.

What's more, Jin Jiang pulled the new brother aside and asked in a low voice, "Have you heard what I asked you to inquire?" ”

Yongxin couldn't figure it out for a while, he turned his head and asked, "What do you ask?" ”

Jin Jiang just slapped his hand and said, "What are you thinking about this melon seed?" It's all fathers, can't you decorate something? I asked you to inquire about the sale of land in the village. ”

Yongxin suddenly realized, he said: "Grandmother, I have inquired a long time ago, there are indeed people in the village who are selling fields, but the price of his family is much higher. ”

"Which one? How much silver did he call? Jin Jiang asked, thinking that the matter of buying land would be done in the next two days, and when the seeds were planted, they would be able to join her own field.

"It's Uncle Wang Neng's house."

"Wang Neng that kid?" Jin Jiang's brows furrowed.

Didn't Wang Neng marry his daughter to a rich family as a concubine? The houses are so big, why do you suddenly want to sell your own land?

You know, the field is very important to the farmer's family, just like life. Root-like.

Jin Jiang asked again: "How much silver is an acre of silver from his family?" ”

Yongxin is a little embarrassed, he has actually inquired about it a long time ago, but he has never told his grandmother, this year is good, every household does not say that they are full, but they are definitely not hungry, it is so, no one is willing to sell the land at all, and Uncle Wang Neng's price is too amazing, he doesn't want to disappoint his grandmother, so he keeps silent.

Jin Jiang stretched out his hand and twisted it around the new brother's arm, staring at him with horizontal eyebrows.

"Eighteen taels of silver per acre."

Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, Yongxin saw his grandmother's eyes widen and he shouted. An acre of fertile land is only eleven or twelve taels, and seven or eight taels can buy an acre during natural disasters.

Half ringing.

"This king eight. Why don't you grab the lamb. Jin Jiang simply felt that Wang Neng was crazy, and Ben was pleasantly surprised, knowing that Wang Neng's land was only a few dozen steps away from their field, and it could be seen at a glance.

She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, there is no one in the village, you can look for it in the border village, and we can buy it and collect the rent." ”

Rent to peasant households, the grain collected is three or seven cents, and at the end of the year, without money or effort, you can get nearly half of the grain, and Jin Jiang is naturally willing.

In other villages, Yongxin also ran over, he thought about it carefully, and said: "There are some border villages, but they are all scattered fields, grandmother, or you will sue me, how many acres are our family going to buy this time?" ”

Yongxin's inquiry was purely curious, and the family entered the money one after another, but he didn't know how much it was.

Jin Jiang glanced at him and said, "Hurry up and inquire about me, you won't know when you buy it." ”

Yongxin wanted to say more, but was pushed aside by Jin Jiang. He looked at his grandmother who was far away, and couldn't help but be a little funny, anyway, it's okay now, so he went to the border village to ask, now that most of the autumn harvest is over, if there is anyone who wants to sell land, the news will be released at this time.

And Wang Nengjia, who is in Yongxin's mouth, is actually waiting for news.

Wang Neng's house has a big courtyard, the halls and houses that he entered are very neatly repaired, and the furniture placed is even more amazing, Wang Neng sat on the chair, with a bitter face, and kept thinking about what his daughter had said to him.

When the daughter first got married, she was fine, and the food was sent to the family one after another, and then the news came that Meizi was pregnant, and the things sent were even worse, a large sum of silver, silk and satin, which simply dazzled the eyes of their family.

But it didn't take long for the good days to pass, and Meizi asked someone to come to the door to ask for silver, saying that it was urgent. The daughter is the god of wealth in the family, and they didn't think much about it, so they directly brought most of the family's silver, but within a few days, they received news that they were here to ask for money.

Wang Neng felt that something was wrong, he left one hand, left some in his hand, and only gave a small part out.

Although his daughter came back with great fanfare last time, he felt that something was wrong when Meizi got off the sedan chair, obviously he had a body for a few months, but his lower abdomen was mediocre.

The silk he wears, the gold and silver jewelry he wears, but as soon as he enters the door, he shouts for silver for emergency, but when he asks what happened, Meizi just doesn't say it.

If Wang Neng really thought about his daughter, he would not have sold her as a slave and maid, let alone agreed to her to be a concubine, but he still had to rely on her to live a good life in the future, so he agreed to sell the family's land for silver.

Therefore, the news that Wang Neng wanted to sell the land spread like this, and the reason why the price was so high was only because he was not very happy to sell it in his heart.

In the same way, he is also watching and inquiring, if something really happens to his daughter in that family, he must definitely get out and not fall into it. (To be continued.) )
