Chapter 22 The Girl Who Wears Books Don't Want to Die 22

"You say you won't marry if you don't marry? Jiaojiao, even if you don't have parents, you don't have the final say on marriage alone, how can I see that you are still single after the marriageable age? ”

Gu Jinbao didn't expect Gu Jiao to directly say that she would not marry, but as he said, it was not up to her to decide whether Gu Jiao would marry or not.

Not to mention that his uncle is still there, just today it was rumored that Gu Jiao held sixteen acres of land, but I was afraid that the threshold of her house would be broken by the matchmaker......

"Uncle laughed, I'm fifteen years old now, not five years old, over the years, I have long been able to take charge of myself, and I can naturally decide what my family affairs are, so I don't bother with Uncle and Auntie."

When Gu Jiao said this, the sarcastic smile on her lips grew, she really didn't expect that not only Gu Lin's cheek, but also Gu Jinbao's cheekiness would not be too much, but it really fulfilled the old saying - it's not that a family doesn't enter a door!

"You child, I am your uncle, your father and mother have passed away, we don't care about your family, who cares? Jiaojiao, do you want the villagers to poke my Gu Jinbao's backbone? ”

"Gu Jiao, your uncle is right, your father and mother have passed away, your uncle is your closest person, and the two of them should indeed find and handle your family affairs."

Lizheng, who was originally on the sidelines to minimize his sense of existence as much as possible, and became a bystander, couldn't help but echo it.

It is true that in his heart, the meaning of a woman's existence is to marry someone and take care of her husband's family, so even if he loves Gu Xiang more, after Gu Xiang gets married, he will never cross Gu Xiang's husband's family to be the master of Gu Xiang once.

Because in his heart, although Gu Xiang is still his beloved granddaughter, she has also married a wife and become a person from another family, and she is an outsider from the root after all......

"Grandpa Lizheng, what you need to do today is to be a witness to our uncle and nephew, as for these other things, I won't bother you, no matter what you say, my words have come to this, as long as my two younger brothers do not have the ability to live independently, I will not be married for a day!"

If she just rashly said that she would not marry, I am afraid that Li Zheng, who is now unclear, will directly stand on the side of Gu Jinbao's family.

Gu Jinbao picked up the appearance of an elder and asked.

"Uncle, I can't guarantee what others will do, I can only guarantee myself, I will definitely take my younger brother, even after marriage, I will continue to raise my younger brother, this is my responsibility, I will not shirk it, are you satisfied?"

Gu Jiao raised her face, her eyes full of indifference.

"You girl, I didn't mean that, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, uncle, our topic is too far away, we are asking Li Zheng to be a witness today, for the land that belongs to me that you are cultivating now."

The corners of Gu Jiao's mouth twitched, and she moved the topic back again......

"Of course I haven't forgotten, it's just Jiaojiao, you are a little girl, you can't plant so much land, why take it back? Isn't it better to plant for the uncle than to be wild? ”

Gu Jinbao let Gu Jiao see what it means to be cheeky.

"You joked, as long as you return the land to me and the rent owed to us, these lands will naturally not be deserted."

Gu Jiao said with a smile, the meaning of the words is that you return the land and the rent, so that she will not waste these lands, otherwise it will be wasted, and it is also because of you.

"Grandpa Lizheng, my land, when my father rented it to my uncle, he didn't write the number of years, and now I want to take it back, what do you think? If you can't be the master, then I can only go into the city and ask the county master. ”

Gu Jiao is in no mood to continue, the sun is getting higher and higher, there are still two hungry younger brothers in her family, calculate the time, they will also complete the tasks she assigned, if they can't see her when they come out, they are afraid that they will be frightened......

"If you have a title deed, you can naturally take it back, but now that your uncle has planted the land, and there is less than a month to harvest rice, it is indeed inappropriate for you to take it back now."

Li Zheng is actually very difficult to be caught in it, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, this matter between Gu Jinbao and Gu Jiao's two families, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a mess, and it is even more difficult for him to do.

Although before Gu Jinbao's family came over, he promised Gu Jiao that he would try his best to help her get the rent and land back because of Gu Xiang's face, but Gu Jinbao was right, Gu Jiao was a woman after all.

It is a woman's ultimate destination is her family, even if Gu Jiao has not yet decided to marry, but Gu Yaozu and Gu Yaozong are about the same age, if he makes the decision today and asks Gu Jinbao to return all the land to Gu Jiao, then if Gu Jiao uses the land as a dowry in the future, won't he have to be hated to death by Gu Jinbao's family?

"As long as my uncle pays all the rent owed to our family over the years, I can wait for the harvest before recovering the land, otherwise the harvest in these fields, in addition to the land tax that should be paid, I will discount the rest as a part of the rent to pay off the debt."

Gu Jiao's purpose was never to get these lands now, her goal from the beginning was just the rent that Gu Jinbao's family owed them.

Even before Gu Jinbao's family came over, she deliberately avoided Gu Xiang's request to help her get the land back, so that now Gu Jinbao could let go and pay off the rent!

As Gu Jinbao said, she is now alone and has to take care of her two younger brothers, even if those lands are recovered, they will only be wasted, after all, those lands are now without his father's identity and are exempt from land tax, even if they want to rent out, it will not be easy for a while...... "Jiaojiao, do you mean that as long as we pay the rent, we can continue to plant these lands?" ”

"Otherwise, I will take back the land now, including the grain in it!"

"Jiaojiao, I can't give you these rents, I originally rented the land with your father, and the IOU is also written in your father's name, even if you want to pay it back, you have to pay it back to your father, even if your father is dead now, then I will sign Yaozu's money with Yaozong, and if I want to return it, I will return it to them, instead of handing over the rent to you, the Gu family daughter who is destined to marry!"

As Gu Jiao expected, Gu Jinbao still continued to struggle and was unwilling to give money, and it didn't work elsewhere, so he bit the word to death Gu Jiao is woman wants to marry, and if he wants to pay the rent, he will only hand it over to Gu Yaozu and Gu Yaozong, not to Gu Jiao.

As for the two brothers, they are only five years old now, and by the time they become governors, it will be at least a few years away, and it will be unknown whether these accounts will exist or not......

"The land you rented is owned by me, not my brothers."

Gu Jiao repeated with a calm face, she didn't continue the topic, but one sentence clearly showed her attitude.
