Chapter 20: Buying Land and Building a House I
The kapok in the space put the money earned into the wooden box containing the money, plus the previous counting, she actually earned a thousand taels of silver in the past two months, which can be regarded as a little rich woman, now she has money, she can buy land and build a house, so she doesn't have to go to Zhang Yan's house for dinner every day, not to mention the trouble of running around, she also wants to stay away from the Mu family quickly, otherwise she always feels that life will not be lived.
After thinking about it, Kapok fell asleep, and she had to get up early tomorrow to go to Lizheng's house to inquire about the land.
In the early morning of the next day, Kapok had already gotten up, practiced the daily must-have five bird plays, and then went out after talking to the little fox.
When he came out, the people of the Mu family were still asleep, only to see Mu Qing holding a hoe and preparing to work in the field, it happened that Mu Qing also looked over, pouted and wanted to say something but didn't say anything.
Kapok guessed, he must have wanted to say, "You are a girl's house running out early in the morning, it is not a system", but thinking that the family had been separated, he did not speak, Kapok pretended not to see it out of the gate of the wooden house and walked towards the house.
The people in the village are almost not up now, except for some who work in the fields, so how many people do you see.
"Kapok, it's early!" Li Xiufeng came out with a hoe.
"Hmmm! Aunt Li Zao" Kapok responded politely.
"Where is this going?"
"I'll go to Sister Zhang Yan's house" Kapok didn't want the villagers to know that she was going to buy land and build a house, so she didn't say that she was going to Lizheng's house, otherwise she didn't know how to answer when asked.
"Oh, then I'll get busy first"
"Hmm!"
After saying goodbye to Li Xiufeng, after a while, Kapok arrived at the door of Lizheng's house, and at this time, the door of Lizheng's house was open, presumably up.
Kapok stood outside the door and shouted inside, "Uncle Li, are you at home?" ”
"Yes! Here it is! Come on in! The door is open" Li Qingming heard the voice and walked out to greet him, and Kapok followed in.
What catches your eye is a big yard, every household in the countryside has a yard, there is a big yard at the main gate of Li Qingming's house, there are two main houses in the middle, there is a small gate in the middle of the main house, and behind the small door is a small yard, which is used to raise pigs, chickens and ducks, and there are two partial houses on both sides of the front yard.
Li Qingming's family has a total of four people, Li Qingming's wife Tian Yulan, daughter Li Xiuniang, son Li Zhenglong, Li Xiuniang is as big as Kapok, Li Zhenglong is one year older than Kapok.
"Kapok girl, you came to my house for something, did your stepmother bully you again?" Li Qingming sat on the stone bench and asked with concern.
"There is no Uncle Li, my stepmother didn't bully me, I came today to inquire about how the land in our Lijia Village is sold," Kapok said with a busy hand.
"Kapok girl, why are you asking about this?" Li Qingming looked puzzled, and Kapok also felt that he was abrupt, after all, no one would have thought that it was her, a fifteen-year-old girl, who wanted to buy land and build a house.
"That's the case, I and the Mu family have separated, and it is inevitably a little inconvenient to live there, and there is only one room without a place to cook, these days I am at Sister Zhang Yan's house, and their family's life is also difficult, I always go to eat is not good, so I want to buy land and build a house, so that I don't have to say it, and I don't have to trouble others" Kapok slowly said his concerns.
"Oh! I see! But do you have that much money? It costs a lot to buy land and build a house" Li Qingming was afraid that Kapok didn't have so much money, but he didn't know that she could be regarded as the richest man in Lijia Village.
"I went to the mountains a few days ago to pick some wild fruits to sell, and met a noble man who bought my fruit and gave me a good price and rewarded me, so that I could sell it to him if I had fruit, so I often went up the mountain to pick fruits and sell them for money, thinking it should be enough" Kapok continued to use the panic that he had knitted last time, and there were indeed a lot of wild fruits in the mountains behind the village, so it would work.
"Oh, then I'll rest assured, it's still cheaper to build a house in our village, but the land is more expensive, this has to be summed up, let's say slowly" Li Qingming was not in a hurry, and then ordered, "Girl, make a pot of tea"
"Okay," Li Xiuniang in the room responded.
After a while, a pot of tea and a few cups came out, and few people in the village drank tea, because tea was very expensive, and ordinary people couldn't afford to drink it, so they would only buy some and wait for the family to use when there were guests, and if they couldn't afford it, they would buy some white sugar water to entertain people, which showed that Li Qingming's family was okay.
