"Okay, Sister Fei, are you going to sell all these fields or keep some of them? What price do you want to sell? ”
"Brother Yang, brother and sister, I know that you are all honest people, our family is a little bit of a family, and I don't know how much silver I want over there, so I ......"
"Grandma Fei, how much silver do you want for an acre of land, just say it, we will buy it if we think it is suitable, if it is not suitable, you can find another family, it doesn't matter!" Ling'er said sincerely, firstly, she still had some sympathy for the old lady, and secondly, the location and quality of the fields were very good, and the fields in this era were already priceless, as long as the price was not ridiculously high, she would ask for it.
Mrs. Fei lowered her head and pinched her sleeves for a long time, and said in a low voice: "If you sell it all, I hope to... Yes... Two hundred taels! ”
"Two hundred taels!" Ling'er was shocked, according to the market price, the high-grade fertile land is eight taels and one mu, and the dry land is five taels and one mu, and Mrs. Fei's land is only worth about one hundred taels at most, and her asking price has doubled all of a sudden!
"I... I can't help it, brother and sister, you ......."
Father and mother were also a little surprised, they looked at each other, and then looked at Ling'er, Ling'er said, "Grandma Fei, your price is quite high...... Or... Let's discuss it again at home, are you in a hurry? When do you want silver? ”
Mrs. Fei stood up: "The sooner the better, the doctor said that the medicine can't be cut off for a day, and if it is broken, the money in front will be spent in vain!" A small plug may also be... The money I paid before was only enough to last until tomorrow, and if I didn't send the money to the hospital the day after tomorrow, I would have to stop taking the medicine!
Brother Yang, brother and sister, I was forced to sell the land because I had no choice, you ...... Just beg you, my wife! ”
Mrs. Fei fell to her knees with a pop, and the old lady hurriedly came over to help her: "Old sister, what are you doing?" Get up, get up! ”
"Brother and sister. In the past, it was me who was wrong, wronged you at every turn, found fault with you, I am sorry for you, you adults have a lot, just forgive me! I'm just a little bolt now, if he's gone. What's the point of living as a lonely old woman! Please! ”
"Alright, alright. Old sister, don't say it, can't I promise it? Get up. Hurry up! The old lady responded in a hurry, seeing that this old lady was so pitiful, although Ling'er felt that it was too expensive, it was not easy to say anything!
The old lady helped Mrs. Fei to sit down. Softly soothed her for a while, and casually asked about the condition of the little plug. A small plug. Mrs. Fei was full of tears, a handful of snot and a handful of tears crying about how she was miserable, how the little bolt was miserable, fortunately now she met a good doctor who rejuvenated herself. Otherwise, their mother-in-law and grandson will be finished!
Ling'er didn't think so, if he was really a good doctor, how could he ask for so much silver? Maybe it's a big liar. When the time comes, this pair of mother-in-law and grandson will really be finished! Ling'er thought about it and felt that she should still remind her: "Grandma Fei." Which medical center is the little plug in the county? What's the doctor's name? Don't go to that tricky place, and beware of being deceived! ”
"No, no, the medical hall is the largest and best medical center in the county, Dr. Zhuang is also the best doctor, many people go to him to beg him to see a doctor, he doesn't see it, our little plug can meet him is the creation of a small plug, Dr. Zhuang said that as long as the little plug is given half a month of medicine, it will be all right!"
"Doctor Zhuang?" Ling'er felt a little familiar but couldn't remember where she had heard it for a while, seeing Mrs. Fei's eyes full of anticipation and conviction, Ling'er said: "Grandma Fei, how much money do you spend a day to see a doctor in that hospital?" ”
At the mention of silver, the old lady frowned again: "One day is about ... About ten taels of silver! After a moment of silence, she said again: "As long as I can cure my grandson, let alone ten taels of silver, even if it is one hundred taels a day, I have to find a way!" ”
"But Grandma Fei, you sold all the fields, even if the little bolt is good in the future, how will you live without the fields?"
Mrs. Fei was stunned, her face gradually darkened, the old lady glanced at Ling'er, helped the old lady and comforted: "Old sister, it's okay, don't worry, it's important to save the little bolt now, and I'll talk about it later, there will always be a way!" Back then, when we treated Ling'er, everything we could sell was sold, and we almost didn't even keep this yard, but now Ling'er is better, and our family's life is slowly getting better! The little bolt is a good boy who is filial, and when he gets better, he will definitely be filial to you! ”
The old lady was immediately happy when she heard this: "Yes, yes, the little bolt will definitely be fine, and it will definitely get better in the future!" ”
The old lady was in a better mood, and the old lady invited her to dinner, but the old lady refused, and euphemistically proposed to give the title deed to Ling'er's family for silver now, and she wanted to go to the city to see the little bolt earlier.
The old lady had no objection, she was about to get up to get the money, Ling'er said: "Grandma Fei, look, although this title deed is placed here, but the name is yours, in case the title deed is lost, you go to make up for another one, and our two hundred taels of silver will be lost!" That's all our family's foundation! ”
"No, no, I won't make it up, selling to you is selling to you, I..."
"Grandma Fei, I don't mean anything else, just in case! Otherwise, you give us the title deed, and we will give you one hundred taels of silver tickets first, and the remaining one hundred taels of land deeds will be made up to you after the transfer of the land deed! In this way, neither of us will lose money, and we will feel at ease, you see how it is! ”
Mrs. Fei was stunned for a moment, pinched the title deed and hesitated for a long time, and said with a bitter face: "But where is the little bolt ......?"
"Grandma Fei, didn't you say that the medical expenses of the little plug are about ten taels a day? You take a hundred taels of silver first, and you can hold on for at least ten days, if only the small bolt is good at that time, and the remaining hundred taels are just enough for your future life? Even if it's not enough, as long as the transfer procedures are completed within these ten days, we will make up the 100 taels to you! ”
The old lady thought for a moment and nodded, "That... All right! She reluctantly groped for the title deed for a moment, and handed it over with trembling hands: "Brother and sister, this title deed ...... It's up to you, you... You need to take good care of it! ”
The old lady took it carefully, wrapped it layer by layer in front of Mrs. Fei, and then took a silver ticket of one hundred taels to her, the old lady bowed hard and thanked her, and then slowly walked out of the yard with her back bent, the old lady wanted to send her, she resolutely refused, saying that she would immediately find a car to enter the city.
Ling'er and the old lady stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched Mrs. Fei's back gradually disappear into the night, and the old lady said: "Ling'er, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, the life and death of the little bolt are uncertain now, Sister Fei took out her last belongings, why don't you give all the money to others?" ”
"Mother, didn't you just say it? The title deed has not been transferred, in case she refills one and then sells it, we will be empty of money! ”
"How is that possible? Although Sister Fei doesn't have a good temper, she is a sincere person and will never do such a thing, Ling'er! Anyway, she is an elder, you shouldn't doubt her so much! ”
Ling'er saw that the old lady was being kind again, and seemed to reproach herself for being too careful, Ling'er sighed lightly in her heart and explained: "Mother, in fact, I don't give it all to her for her good!" ”
"Good for her? Why is that? ”
"The little plug has been dumb for more than ten years, how can he still speak after he has a fever and is cured? I think the doctor was probably bluffing! Ten taels of silver a day for medicine, even the richest man in the city, the Jia family, may not be willing to do it, but he uses this to set up the money of an old man in his grandmother, that guy is definitely a liar if he is not a miracle doctor!
Grandma Fei's fields are actually only worth a hundred taels of silver at most at the market price, and we have already given her a hundred taels after taking the title deed, and she is not a loss; And in case the doctor is really a liar, and in the end, Grandma Fei is empty, let's keep this hundred taels and let Grandma Fei spend the rest of her life in peace, right? ”
The old lady stopped and thought about it, nodded and said, "Well, it makes sense, so we won't give this hundred taels?" What if Sister Fei comes back in two days and asks us to transfer the house? ”
"Then we've been there, let's go and see the little plug by the way, and the miracle doctor that Grandma Gui said, and by the way, inquire about the doctor's reputation. If the little bolt can really be cured, let's give her the money after the transfer, if there is a problem, we will persuade Grandma Gui again, if she doesn't listen, let's say that the money is not enough, and we will send it next time, anyway, there is a way! ”
The old lady thought this was a good idea, so she didn't say anything more, and the two went back to the hall to eat together, and the family discussed when to build a few more houses, how to distribute the houses at that time, and what to plant when the land was recovered.
The next day, Ling'er's family got up early to cook, boil medicine, and clean the yard. As soon as Dad came home, his spirit was much better, and after eating, he asked Ling'er to go to the river to cut some bamboo and come back to weave things for him, Ling'er didn't want to go, so let Dad have a good rest, but Dad was very persistent, saying that he was too active and nothing was sick, Ling'er had to agree, and took Ning Ba and Ten Sister to the river.
A few of them rushed out of the courtyard, and Ling'er decided to walk from the side path and not pass through the village, so as not to cause trouble! didn't take a few steps before she heard Yue'er calling her. Ling'er turned around and saw Yue'er coming over with Xiaohuzi and Wan'er, who she hadn't seen for a long time, and Wan'er's younger brother Xiao Yong'er.
Xiao Yong'er was very happy to see Ling'er, and called Ling'er's sister to pounce on her in a milky voice, and after laughing and playing for a while, Yue'er heard that she was going to the river to cut bamboo, and immediately led the way in front of her. A group of children walked in a row, quite lively.
Wan'er said: "Ling'er, you haven't been back for a few days, I thought you wouldn't come back in the future!" People in the village say that your family has made a fortune when they meet a nobleman, and they have earned thousands of taels of silver in a few days, is it true? ”
Ling'er laughed dryly, yesterday it was thousands of taels, today it will become thousands of taels, will it become hundreds of thousands of taels in a few days? People's habit of exaggerating and gossiping can't be changed in any era! Of course, most of the people who spread the rumors still have a bit of jealousy!
"Wan'er, don't listen to their nonsense, this time I made a little money, but it's only about a hundred taels, how can there be thousands of taels!"
"Really? That's a lot! My dad used to run goods all year round, and he only had a few dozen taels of silver when he came back! By the way, Ling'er, you won't lend that money to Grandma Fei, right? (To be continued)
