The younger woman in the house walked up to comfort Zhang and Xiaobao, and the village chief also said: "Yes, yes, Bao'er, you can't think nonsense, your father is still like this, you can't leave your milk anymore, you are now the lifeblood of your milk." If you leave again, your house will be scattered, aren't you forcing your milk to death? Besides, even if he sells you and your father rescues him, how should he face him, face your milk, face your mother. Also, who will take care of your father and take care of your milk after you are gone, even if your father rescues you, it won't be right away, will it? Listen to your grandmother, but stop talking nonsense, obedient. The village chief also sighed and said that he couldn't help it.

Hearing the village chief's words, Xiaobao also knew that he was thinking too simply, but he had no choice. He stopped talking, just hugged her grandmother hard in his hands. As if the words had already been spoken, his heart was cleared up a little, and Zhang said to the village chief: "That's it, can the village chief trouble you to help me sell my family's land, you also know my family's land, and everyone in the village knows it." It's just that he might have to hurry, I'm afraid he won't be able to delay much time. ”

The village chief also knew that there was only one way, and he also knew that it was the time when human life was at stake, so he said directly: "Okay, sister-in-law Zhang, you can leave it to me, but you also know that this time is a little short, and I am afraid that others will lower the price." Zhang also knew, but he really couldn't help but say, "It's okay, village chief, just do your best." "Okay, then I'll go first. Li Gongzi: What are you? The village chief looked at them and asked.

They knew that the village chief wanted to ask them if they wanted to go with them, but they didn't say anything, but simply comforted the Du family and said to the village chief: "Let's go with you, it won't help much." He followed the village chief out.

The village chief who came out of the house saw that there were still a few people in the courtyard of the Du family, most of whom had already left, and now it was the time for spring ploughing, and there was not so much leisure. Thinking of what had just happened, the village chief said to the few people who stayed: "By the way, if you want to sell the two acres of land at home, you can also go back to discuss whether to buy it, and you also know that the land of the Zhizhi family is all good land, and the management is very good, and it is all cleaned up." Then he left the Du family and came out, and he had to hurry to ask if anyone in the village wanted to buy land.

Yang Xue and Li Bokang on the side also went out, and the village chief said a few words to them and left, they also knew that the time was very tight and they didn't have anything to say. They were ready to go, and they didn't know if they would have a place to live when they arrived in Fucheng, but when the ox cart began to move, she suddenly jumped out of the cart, which startled Li Bokang.

After getting out of the car, she said, "Bokang, you wait first." Then he entered through the gate of the Du family, and there was no one in the courtyard of the Du family at this time, and those people left after the village chief had just finished speaking. When they came to the room where they stayed before, only the ancestors and grandchildren of the Du family and Du Youzhi who were lying on the bed were left.

Seeing her return again, the ancestors of the Du family were still a little surprised, and thought that she had lost something and forgot to take it. Zhang asked, "Li Gongzi, did you forget to take something?" Or is there something going on? There was some caution in his words. Yang Xue didn't notice her tone and said, "That's the case, this is for you." As he spoke, he took out a piece of broken silver and some copper plates from his body and gave them them, which looked like four hundred wen.

The grandfather and grandson probably didn't expect this and were a little stupid, and both pairs of eyes looked straight at her with some puzzlement. Seeing their expressions, she said, "You guys take it first, we don't have much, by the way, Xiaobao, sister...... My brother told you, as long as people are still there, there is hope, and people are more important than anything else, do you know? I'll go first, you guys hurry up and put it away. After saying that, he put the money on the table aside and turned around and went out, leaving the grandparents and grandchildren in the room who had just come to their senses.

As soon as he walked to the gate, Xiaobao ran out of the house and shouted to her back: "Thank you, Brother Li, I remember your words." She paused when she heard the voice coming from behind her, but she didn't turn around, just waved her hand and continued walking.

On the other side, the village chief walked back to his home and picked up the family's gong, and struck it as he walked in the village. This gong was only struck when there was a big event in the village, because now that time was tight, he had no other way but to do this, so that he could quickly gather everyone. Soon, most of the people in the village gathered in the place where things usually talk in the village, and the people who came were talking and talking one after another, discussing what important things were worthy of the village chief to ring the gong this time.

After seeing that the people were coming, the village chief began to say: "Folks, everyone listen to me quietly, it's like this, everyone knows that this time I was injured when I was interested in going up the mountain to hunt." The doctor in the village said that the injury was very serious and could not be saved, so it was possible to send it to the town or county to save it, but it would cost a lot of money. Everyone also knows the conditions of Youzhi's family, so Youzhi's mother is ready to sell the family's two acres of land. Because things are urgent, so I struck the gong in the village, everyone is embarrassed, this is also no way, you can't always see death and don't save it, this is not the style of our village. Therefore, I asked if there was anyone in our village who wanted to buy land with aspirations, and everyone went back to discuss it first. However, now there are aspirants whose families need to give money immediately, and everyone knows about the land of aspiring families, and their land is very good in terms of fertility and management, and the location of the land is also good, and the water is also convenient. The price is the same as usual on a first-come, first-served basis, and if you think about it, you can go to the house of the aspirant, and I will wait at their house. After saying that, he found a young man from the village and sent him the gong home, and went to Du's house.

When I came to Du's house, I told my grandparents and grandchildren what I had just done, but they didn't say anything. However, they are still a little worried in their hearts, first, they are afraid that their son (father) will not last long, second, they are afraid that they will not be able to sell, or others will lower the price, and third, they are afraid that even if they buy land, they will not be able to save people. However, they still waited with the village chief to see if anyone would come to buy the land.

In fact, Xiaobao on the side was still wondering whether to tell the village chief grandfather about the previous matter, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still said it, but the amount of money was not told the truth, but he just said that he gave a hundred Wen. The village chief was also a little surprised, but still told Xiaobao to remember this favor. Zhang was still a little puzzled when she heard Xiaobao say the number, but she didn't interrupt him, but just replied to the village chief: "I know, we will definitely remember it." "Yes, I must remember that." Xiaobao also chimed in.

It didn't take long for someone to come, the first to arrive was a family in the village who was very well-off, and the Du family was also close, they said they wanted to buy, but they wanted to lower the price and were persuaded away by the village chief. After a while, another family came, and the family's reputation in the village was still quite good, and it was not said that the price reduction was calculated according to the usual price. His family was about to buy the Du family's two acres of land, and said: "When I came just now, I saw someone coming, and I thought it had been sold, but when I saw that they had a bad face when they left, I said to ask again." But it's good that we asked, otherwise we might have missed it. ”

After the two sides said yes, they handed over the money under the witness of the village chief and called the title deed, and the Zhang family was very reluctant when giving the title deed, which was the only land in the family. However, thinking of the son lying on the bed, he still turned his head ruthlessly and handed over the title deed to the village chief. A total of twenty-five taels of more than two acres of land were sold, and most of the money received was copper plates, which looked like a big lump.
