Chapter 65: Becoming an Eternal Secret
Xue'er withdrew from Dong Changhe's embrace, there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, and her eyes were full of relief, "Dad, my daughter has never blamed her father, but there are some things that I can't figure out, and now I am relieved."
Dad was able to apologize to Cher, and Cher was surprised. But Xue'er is her father's daughter, so she shouldn't accept it calmly, but I believe in her father's open-mindedness and won't care more about Xue'er.
There are no parents in this world who are not, and there is no fairness in life itself.
Some people are born rich, some people are born poor, some people will be happy all their lives, and some people will have a rough life...... These are not optional for yourself.
But whether you can make yourself as happy as possible is the result of your own efforts.
Cher will try her best to live a happy life from now on. ”
"Hahaha...... Well, well, Xue'er, who is a father, is really a transparent child, and I am very pleased. Only after suffering and setbacks can people truly grow, and I have come through that way.
Xue'er is worthy of being her father's biological daughter, and her father also learned that she would not survive to reach the crown at your age, and at that time I only felt that the world had lost all its color in an instant.
Later, it was for my father to think about it, and I had a strong desire to survive. Looking at the world again, even if it is a small grass, I will have feelings, and I also feel that it also has its beauty, and I was just like you now.
Although you are dying this time, you have gained a lot, I believe that Cher's future life will be smooth sailing, and I believe that you can live a happy and fulfilling life. ”
Dong Changhe's words made Xue'er's heart slightly astringent, although the man in front of him seemed to be handsome, how many people could understand the bitterness in his heart?
Everyone is always concerned about their own gains and losses, regardless of whether they harm the interests of others.
She nodded obediently, "Yes, my daughter will." ”
Dong Changhe smiled again, and in this sunny time, it became a permanent memory for Xue'er.
He stood up, also took Xue'er's little hand, looked at the space ring on her hand and said, "Tell your mother for my father, this ring on your hand was picked up by the river when you were washing clothes, don't talk about leaking when the time comes." ”
Xue'er was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she saw Dong Changhe winking at her, smiling.
"Thank you, Dad, for believing in me, in fact, this ring is indeed ......" Xue'er opened her mouth to explain, but she really didn't know how to explain, and wanted to follow Dong Changhe's words.
But I saw the back of Dong Changhe turning away, leaving a sentence that dissipated in the wind: "Believe in Xue'er for my father." ”
Dong Changhe knows Dong Xue'er's temperament very well, not to mention that everyone has their own secrets, even if it is a child.
He won't pursue this secret anymore, let it be a secret forever!
Xue'er cried again, this time not because of the original owner Dong Xue'er, but because of Dong Changhe's trust and ignorance.
Many years later, when Xue'er celebrated his birthday in Dong Changhe, she embroidered a screen for him to make a birthday gift, and the name of the birthday gift was "Don't ask".
There are four screens, and one picture is a little girl with a double bun standing under the cherry blossom tree, looking up at the fluttering petals, her eyes are a little confused, her head is wrapped in gauze, and a faithful dog is accompanying her......
One picture is the same little girl, talking to a mysterious man with his head down, sitting on the grass with a mysterious mountain behind them......
The third picture is a little girl in a beautiful patched dress, she is watching the back of the mysterious man, and there is a handsome horse beside her wagging her tail and bowing her head to graze......
The last picture shows the little girl leaning on a lying horse, looking at the sky comfortably, with the most beautiful smile in the world on the corner of her mouth......
When Dong Changhe received the birthday gift from his married daughter, he smiled happily.
Sometimes people can trust each other, it doesn't take too many words, maybe it becomes that eternity in a turn.
At this moment, Xue'er realized that she really regarded Dong Changhe as her father.
She also believes that this man is trustworthy, and the piece of heaven he holds up for the Dong family is firm and reliable.
The good day passed quickly, the festive colors faded, and busy people started a new day, some working in front of and behind their houses, some weeding in the fields, and some getting up early to get busy with work......
Dong Changjiang summoned the villagers who were doing short-term jobs in the village and began to help Xue'er's family open up the wasteland.
Dong Changhe gave a salary that was not low.
In this era, the productive forces were backward, and the time to reclaim one acre of land was about four to five days. Because the wasteland here is relatively fertile and there is less sand and gravel, it takes about three days for an adult laborer to clear an acre of land.
At this time, the wage of an adult laborer is about fifteen to twenty wen a day, and it takes five days to cultivate one acre of land, and then pay according to the highest wage, which is about seventy-five to one hundred wen.
Dong Changhe gave a high price of 100 wen for reclamation of one mu of land according to the number of acres.
When Dong Changhe bought this wasteland, he only used the price of 100 yuan per mu of land, and with the addition of labor, Dong Changhe bought 300 acres of land at the price of 60 taels of silver.
Xue'er calculated, and she had to admire Dong Changhe's foresight.
Because in this era, the price of an acre of paddy field was about five taels of silver, the price of an acre of dry land was the price of three to four taels of silver, and the price of one acre of mountainous land was the price of two to three taels of silver.
And this wasteland is mined, according to its soil quality and geographical location, if all of it is converted into paddy fields, it can be sold for five taels of silver, even if it is only used for dry land, it is worth four taels.
Dong Changhe sat on the ground and saved more than 1,000 taels of silver for himself.
He had no taxes for the first three years of his purchase of the wasteland, and now he had only paid one year of agricultural taxes, and he had earned a thousand taels of silver for nothing.
This vision is not something that ordinary people can have.
There were more than 50 people who came to work for a short time, and it took less than a month to complete the reclamation of these 300 acres of land.
Looking at the freshly baked land by the Tanshui River, Xue'er was excited.
Dong Changhe said that he wanted to plant beans on the ground to fertilize the land, and these people who came to help with the reclamation were still there, and while cultivating the land, they sowed the beans by the way, so as not to delay the autumn harvest.
Nowadays, the fields are like the winding dragon, which will take off anytime and anywhere, which makes people happy.
It's a pity that she is small and didn't sow many potatoes and sweet potatoes, otherwise more seeds would have been sown next year.
After that conversation, Xue'er was confident that she could get along well with Dong Changhe and his wife, and she hoped that the Dong family would get better and better.
As a person who studied agriculture, he also has a natural love for the land.
