Ye Yuan went to invite the lieutenant chief today to help measure the land, so as to implement the matter of buying land.

Liu Man'er originally wanted to build a house on the original basis and expand the homestead, but because the chief said that they all belonged to the homestead, and it cost three taels of silver per mu, Liu Man'er gave up this idea.

After discussing with the Fang family, Liu Man'er decided to buy the wasteland at the end of the village, which only cost one or two taels of silver per mu, and the price was three times different.

Although the Fang clan was a little reluctant, Liu Man'er listed many benefits of rebuilding the house, and carefully calculated an account with the Fang clan, and the Fang clan figured it out.

"Even if this old mansion is placed here in the future, it's not that it doesn't belong to us." Liu Man'er soothed: "This house is still ours, we can come back and live whenever we want." ”

Fang also nodded, she was not reluctant to give up this house, she was just a person who missed the old days.

However, Liu Man'er has another layer of consideration, she has built a new house, and she will be in charge of the new house in the future, if she builds an old house, in case she waits for Ye Qing to marry a daughter-in-law, and occasionally has conflicts with herself, if it is because of the house, it is not good.

Although it may be that she thinks too much, but who can say what will happen in the future, it is better to build a new house, this is built in her hand, and the land was also bought by her and Ye Yuan, even if Ye Yuan's brothers grow up in the future, they will not have anything to say.

The chief heard Liu Man'er say that he decided to buy wasteland, and the smile on his face was a little more, this wasteland is ownerless land, and it is generally difficult to sell it, and some people buy homesteads, and selling this wasteland is also his merit.

Ye Yuan asked Liu Man'er how many acres of wasteland he wanted to buy, and Liu Man'er thought about it more, so he directly bought ten acres.

Ten acres of land is used to build a house, you can imagine how high the standard of this house is, even the Wang landlord's family in several nearby villages does not have such a big house.

However, Liu Man'er didn't buy these lands because of anything else, just because it was cheap, she thought that she could fence it off first, and then develop it slowly, planting trees, raising chickens and ducks, cattle and sheep, as for the residential area, it must not be used for half an acre.

Ten acres of land is only ten taels of silver, Liu Man'er really feels that she has made a lot of money, and when the governor measures this range well, and marks it with stones, she is inexplicably excited in her heart, the goal is to be a leisurely landlord's wife, of course, to hoard more land.

She can't wait for the lieutenant chief to go to the county office today to help get the land deed, but at this time, it is not early, even if she has this idea, she can only keep it in her heart.

At noon, he invited the chief and some respected witnesses in the village to dinner, and in the afternoon, Liu Man'er went to the wasteland at the end of the village to have a look.

Ye Yuan's current home is already at the end of the village, and this wasteland is not far from this house, Liu Man'er took the Fang family to see it together, she happily pointed to this large piece of land and said to the Fang family: "Mother, you see, these lands are ours, and when the time comes, we will build a big yard, how good it is to raise chickens and ducks, vegetables and flowers here." ”

Fang's face also showed a smile, they are all ordinary peasants, they have a natural love for this land, although it is wasteland, but it is their own, they are happy when they look at it: "Yes, you are still amazing, you bought ten acres at once." ”

Liu Man'er also smiled, she lived in the later life, how expensive the land was at that time, so she was even more obsessed with the land.

In fact, there is nothing beautiful in this wasteland, it is all grass, but in her eyes, it has become the leisurely and leisurely pastoral scenery she imagined.

When they went back, they met some villagers, and they all said hello to the Fang family, but after they walked forward, Liu Man'er clearly heard these people scolding themselves behind their backs:

"This Ye family has become stupid with this stupid girl now, if they have money, they don't buy two acres of good land, but treat the wasteland that others don't want as a treasure."

"Hmph, we just like wasteland, whatever, when I have the money, I will buy this wasteland, and I won't allow you to step on it when the time comes." Liu Man'er thought proudly.

Of course, these people are just talking behind their backs, they can't afford to buy wasteland, and sometimes it's not a good thing that they have sensitive ears, that is, you can always hear people say bad things about you behind your back.

But after listening to it too much, I don't care, and when my house is built, I will see who is stupid when the time comes.

The next day, the lieutenant helped to get the land deed, Liu Man'er held the land deed in her hand, and she was very excited, but this was the first piece of land she bought after she came to ancient times, it was really exciting, and it was one step closer to her landlord.

After looking at it for a long time, Liu Man'er looked at her to the Fang family again, and the family had carefully read the title deed, and then the Fang family handed over the title deed to Liu Man'er, and then said: "Don't look at it, you can't see any flowers when you look at it again, Man'er, you put it away." ”

Liu Man'er took the title deed, and put it away unceremoniously, she now asked Ye Yuan to help make a small box with a lock, which was specially used to put the property she was responsible for keeping, this title deed, she carefully put it into the box.

"Little money fans." Ye Yuan saw Liu Man'er's cautious look, so he laughed at her.

Liu Man'er didn't care, she locked the box and put it in the dilapidated cabinet before saying: "You only know now, my goal is to be a landlord, which landlord doesn't love money?" And you, as the landlord's father-in-law, do you think about what you should do? ”

"I don't know, please instruct the landlord." Ye Yuan stood up straight and saluted solemnly.

"Okay, you go and cut the grass this afternoon." Liu Man'er also commanded in a deep voice.

"Back to the landlord, there is not enough time in an afternoon." Ye Yuandao.

"It's not enough, then I don't care, you don't have to bargain, you can figure it out yourself." Liu Man'er poked her head in front of Ye Yuan and said with a smile.

Originally, she wanted to be serious, but when she saw Ye Yuan's serious appearance, she wanted to laugh inexplicably, and in the end, of course, she broke the credit.

Ye Yuan saw that her face was close at hand, and couldn't help but grab her waist from the landlord, Liu Man'er was caught off guard for a while, struggled twice, and raised her head and said; "What are you doing?"

Ye Yuan suddenly lowered his head, gently kissed her forehead, his face became a little crimson, as if he realized his inappropriate movements, Ye Yuan suddenly let go of her, took two steps back, shook his head, and returned to seriousness: "It's okay." ”

"Why are you kissing me if it's okay?" Liu Man'er took two steps closer, Ye Yuan was a little embarrassed, he turned around and walked out of the house, and said to her, "I'll go mow the grass and come back in the evening." ”

"Wait." Liu Man'er shouted behind him, "Ten acres of land, if you cut it like this, how long will it take?" ”

"Take your time, it should be about twenty days." Ye Yuan stopped and replied.

"So why bother?" Liu Man'er walked over and said to him: "Anyway, it's almost autumn, and when the time comes, you can burn them all with a fire, so why bother so much effort." I asked you to mow the grass because I asked you to cut a circle around our land, so that it would be convenient to set fire to it when the time came, and it would not burn to other places. ”

"Oh." Ye Yuan thought for a moment and nodded again, "Okay, you are still smart." ”

"Of course, go ahead, and beware of snakes in the grass." Liu Man'er reminded.

"Yes." Ye Yuan nodded, turned his head and waved at her, suddenly thought of something again, entered the house, changed into a set of shabby clothes, and then picked up the sickle and went out.

During this time, there are a lot of things, just the wasteland is almost taken care of, but the peanuts and soybeans planted in the spring are slowly ripe, and there is an acre of rice is about to mature.

Liu Man'er was either doing the work in her hands some time ago, or going to the mountains with Ye Yuan, the work of going to the ground, since she was reborn here, she has never done it at all, she has never worked in the field before, but at this time, the soybeans and peanuts are ripe, she has to take them back, otherwise, just Ye Yuan and the Fang family, I don't know when to go.

The most important thing is that if you don't take it back quickly, the soybean pods will open and they will all fall into the ground, Liu Man'er looks distressed, Fang and Ye Yuan are also very anxious, and even Ye He goes to work in the field every day.

However, when the farm is busy, it is the hottest time, and the hotter and hotter weather makes Liu Man'er feel anxious, not to mention the air conditioner, not even a fan, every day Liu Man'er comes back from work, just sitting in the back hall to blow the wind, she is tired and doesn't even want to move.

Ye Yuan saw her sitting there lazily, so he brought cold water from the well, put a bowl of water, then put sugar and vinegar, stirred well, and made a bowl of sugar water to quench her thirst.

When she had finished drinking, he sat down beside her and fanned her.

"I really want to die." Tired and hot to the extreme, Liu Man'er wanted to cry without tears, she didn't even want to eat every day.

"Then you don't go to the fields in the afternoon." Ye Yuan felt sorry for her, so he said, "You can rest in the afternoon." ”

"I can't do anything if I don't go, when the rice is ripe again, if I don't take it back sooner, it will fall in the field." Although Liu Man'er had never been in the field, she still knew these basic things, and the most important thing was that some rice in the village had already fallen down.

If it falls in the field, not only will it be difficult to harvest, but the rice will slowly fall into the field, and the hard work of the year will be in vain.

What's more, at this time, there are also more sparrows, although each family has set up scarecrows in the farmland, but the effect is not great, and occasionally the Fang family will also instruct Ye He to drive the sparrows.

In fact, Liu Man'er felt that she was so tired of her hard work, it was better to go to the mountains to hunt rabbits to make more money, and it was not as good as her making sachets to make money.

But she didn't dare to say this, and she couldn't say it, after all, everyone was going to do something else, who would farm? What's more, although Fang Shi is usually easy to talk to, she treats food very preciously, during this time, she is also in a hurry, so she wants to take back the food quickly, the later she harvests, the more she will waste a lot of food, Liu Man'er also feels that she is too squeamish.
