Chapter 15 Leasing Land
Just when the village chief was once again squinting his eyes and reaching out to collect the money, Li Cheng, the stunned man, walked into the courtyard with Bai Ze on his back.
A few big white geese walking bumped into Li Cheng head-on, and were frightened by the indomitable momentum so that they fluttered their wings and flew away, and with the chaotic sound of "ping pong", the whole yard was dusty, and it immediately became a mess.
The village chief originally wanted to accept it when he saw it, and run away when he made a fortune, but now he just had an excuse to send it to the door, so he urged Dr. Ma again and again to hurry up and take a look, it is important to treat the disease and save people.
Doctor Ma looked at the embarrassed courtyard and became more and more unhappy, and glanced at the two of them casually, and when he saw that it was a stupid big man at the end of the village, he waved his hand casually and said:
"Didn't you drink too much! There is sobering soup on the table in front of you, take a bag and cook it at home, and drink it! I'll find your mother to go later." ”
Li Cheng was stupid, and he couldn't tell what kind of disease Bai Ze was.
He has been injecting injections at Dr. Ma's house since he was a child, and he was very afraid of Dr. Ma, so he didn't dare to say anything, he honestly took a bag of decanting soup, turned around with his head down and left with Bai Ze on his back.
As soon as he came out of the yard not far away, the stupid big man ran into Widow Li, who was left behind because of his weak legs, and the stupid big man smiled and raised the sobering soup with one hand, and invited the merit:
"Mother, I'm sick for the bald man, this is the medicine prescribed by Dr. Ma. ”
When Widow Li saw it, she was also angry, slapped Li Cheng hard, and pulled him back into Doctor Ma's house.
The village chief of this game of mahjong is unlucky, and he has a bad hand of bad cards, seeing the excitement on Doctor Ma's face, he must be a big one.
At this time, the village chief, who was facing the window, happened to see the three widows Li enter the courtyard again, and he hurriedly got off the donkey, pushed the mahjong as if he was a fool, and urged:
"Don't play, don't play! Old horse, go and take a look! There should be some emergency, this is the New Year, but something happened because of playing. ”
Doctor Ma's eyes were red, and he was about to distinguish with the village chief, but Widow Li had already entered the house and beckoned:
"Doctor Ma, take a look, my eldest son beat others to death!"
Seeing that it was indeed not a headache, cold, drunken hemorrhoids, Dr. Ma resumed his responsibility as a doctor, and he didn't care about arguing with the village chief, so he went out of the back room and took the three of them into the clinic next door.
Doctor Ma rolled Bai Ze's eyelids, checked them with some small instruments, and said with a sigh of relief:
"It's nothing, it's just a little malnourished and nervous, and then I was punched and out of breath, and I can wake up in a while, you say hello twice, and now it's estimated to be about the same." ”
Widow Li was suspicious, and leaned into Bai Ze's ear and whispered twice, but there was no movement.
Doctor Ma also had doubts on his face, and pinched Bai Ze's middle man hard, only to see Bai Ze moaning and slowly opening his eyes.
As soon as he regained his senses, Bai Ze half sat up, only to feel that the right half of his face was not aware at all, and his head was still buzzing, and he couldn't lift his spirits.
Widow Li wiped away her tears, took Bai Ze's hand and apologized uncontrollably, but in her words, she was also excusing her own stupidity, hoping that Bai Ze would not be like him.
The village chief of the Mediterranean didn't rub mahjong anymore, and walked over slowly with melon seeds, leaning against the door and watching the excitement, it seemed that the weight of Bai Ze and the three of them was not as important as the melon seeds in his hand.
The buzzing in Bai Ze's mind has not dissipated for a long time, but the faces of all beings in front of him have never been clearer.
Looking at the people in front of him, Bai Ze surprisingly did not have much anger in his heart. It may be because he has no relationship with Widow Li's family, including the entire Lotus Leaf Village, Bai Ze has let go of a lot of worries, and just wants to settle the mundane debt owed by his grandfather as soon as possible and pay off his own peace of mind.
After he recovered a little, Bai Ze sat up from the bed, the right side of his face was already swollen, but it did not affect his clarity at all, Bai Ze said to Widow Li a little tiredly:
"Aunt Li, you don't have to worry, I won't worry about Brother Orange. ”
Without waiting for Widow Li to come up and say something with a guilty face, Bai Ze continued without question;
"However, I'm going to start school soon, and I guess I'll have to leave tomorrow. So, Aunt Li, there are not many valuable things left in our Lao Bai family, please don't be humble, I will give you the land, and I will give it to my grandfather. ”
The corners of Widow Li's lips squirmed twice, looking at Bai Ze's face, but she couldn't say anything if she continued to push, after all, her family was too difficult and lacked any help.
But after all, Bai Wen is the only love in Widow Li's life, even if Bai Wen is dead, Widow Li doesn't want to give up that last bit of dignity, Widow Li's eyes are firmer than Bai Ze, she raised her head and said:
"The contract can be signed! But Ozawa, you also have to leave some dignity for me, an old orphan, your grandfather doesn't want to owe me, and I don't want to owe your grandfather!"
"In this way, the rent of one mu of cultivated land in our village is about 300 yuan a year, and ten acres of land is 30,000 yuan in ten years. Since it is your grandfather who wants to repay the debt, then it will be folded into half, and it will be counted as 15,000, your Aunt Li is poor, and now there are only 10,000 yuan at home, and the rest of the money will be harvested this autumn, and I will settle it for you, and we will not push it to other people's Ma Dafu's family, so it is decided!"
Bai Ze was physically and mentally exhausted, and when he saw that his heart had been delivered, he didn't bother to talk about it anymore, so he acquiesced.
The Mediterranean village chief on the side put down the melon seeds, his face full of displeasure.
It turned out that after Bai Wen was buried last year, the village chief of the old Bai family's ten acres of land was deducted and planted for a year, although the benefits were not great, but no matter how thin a piece of meat was, there was oil and water!
However, the village chief has no reason to block the transaction of cultivated land, and once it is blocked, his reputation is not good, and he still hopes to be re-elected!
The village chief said with a smile on the side:
"It turned out to be Bai Wen's grandson! Your old Bai family is also miserable, now you are left alone! Hey, young man, study hard, and ask for a wife in the future to spread the branches!"
Before Bai Ze could speak, the stupid big man who was staring at the big white goose outside the door in a daze heard the voice of the village chief, ran to the village chief with a surprised face, compared the height of the two, and whispered to the village chief:
"Uncle Liu, you are too young, I didn't even see you just now. ”
The village chief glared at the stupid big man, and before he could speak, the stupid big man looked directly at the top of the village chief's head, smirked on his face, pointed at Bai Ze and said:
"Uncle Liu, I originally thought that you had enough hair, but I didn't expect that there would really be a bald person who didn't have a single hair long!"
Speaking of this, the stupid big man seemed to suddenly think of something terrible, and continued worriedly:
"Uncle Liu, you won't be bald like that in the future, right? I heard that people with less hair are smarter, but the kid in bed is stupid if he doesn't have a single hair. Uncle Liu, everyone in the village praises you for being as smart as an old weasel, what if you become stupid in the future. ”
The village chief was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but this fool just can't be more serious with him, the more serious you are, the only one who is angry can only be yourself.
The village chief simply turned his back and ignored him, but the stupid big man still liked to chat with the old Mediterranean man, which annoyed the village chief.
Doctor Ma on the side felt very happy when he saw that the village chief was deflated, and he didn't feel so distressed about the more than 200 yuan he lost, and he happily wiped a fraction of the medicine money for Widow Li.
It just so happens that the village chief is here, so there is no need to go to the village committee to sign the contract.
The contract in the countryside is generally very simple, few words, and not very formal, the village chief redrafted a contract, and with Bai Ze signing his name on it, the Bai family's ten acres of land were planted by the widow Li before the state took it back.
