Chapter 31: An Unexpected Visitor

Uncle Zhang was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, and blurted out: "Have you thought about it?" It will cost dozens of taels of silver to rebuild the house. ”

Yuan Qiu nodded with a smile: "I don't have enough money now, but it will be enough soon, you don't have to worry about this." ”

Uncle Zhang's face was incredible, this is a few dozen taels of silver, not as simple as a few taels of silver or hundreds of copper coins.

"Uncle, I would like to ask you something, the title deed of the house we live in is counted together with the yard? Or is it just the part of the house? ”

Uncle Zhang came back to his senses. grinning and said: "Of course, it's just the title deed of the house, most of the yards are circled by themselves behind the big guys, and in the mountains, it's not a big deal to circle the courtyard walls, as long as you don't go too far." ”

Yuan Qiu thought to himself, too, the original owner's father was separated from the family in the past, and now the land of the house is another homestead, look at the virtue of the eldest and third of the Xia family, how can the second Xia father get benefits, it is good to have money to buy a homestead to build a house, it is impossible to spend money to buy the yard land, not to mention, the yard of the big guy in the village is all white circle, and his father is not stupid, how can he spend money to buy it?

"Uncle Zhang, if I want to expand the homestead, who should I go to to buy land?" Now the situation is different from the past, there must be a dark river outlet under the backyard, as long as it is dug up, it is equivalent to digging out a cornucopia, such a fertile land, if it is not conclusively held in their own hands, it will definitely cause people to be angry and cause trouble.

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he was taken aback again, according to his thoughts, although the house of Yuanqiu's family is not big, there are only two sisters and brothers in the family, and it is enough to repair it, so why do you need to expand?

"If you want to buy a homestead, just find the lieutenant, he will come to measure the land for you, and then help you go to the yamen to go through the formalities, and you can get the title deed in ten days." Although surprised, Uncle Zhang still told the truth, in his opinion, Yuan Qiu seems to have an idea than before, as if he has changed a person, it is estimated that she will not listen to what he says, so she will simply talk less nonsense.

"If I want to buy both the front yard and the back yard, how much will it cost?" Yuan Qiu asked again.

Uncle Zhang made a rough calculation and said, "The front yard of your house is not big, but the backyard is a little bigger, and it is estimated that five taels of silver is enough." ”

After asking a few more questions, the ox cart swayed back to Xipo Village, and just pulled the sister and brother into the village, before they arrived at the door, Aunt Zhang rushed up in a hurry, stopped Uncle Zhang's ox cart, and shouted at Yuan Qiu: "Miss Qiu, you went to the town today, but you didn't do anything, right?" ”

Yuan Qiu shook his head: "No, what's wrong Aunt Zhang?" ”

Aunt Zhang looked confused, pointed in the direction of Yuan Qiu's house, and said, "That's strange, since you haven't committed any crimes, how can there be officials guarding your door?" ”

Official errands? Yuan Qiu thought of Chen Yinjie, who was accidentally saved today, his father was the magistrate of Pingtung County, could it be that he was sent by Lord Chen? Could it be that Chen Yinjie has something wrong? Thinking of this, she hurriedly jumped out of the ox cart and hurried towards the house.

Aunt Zhang followed her and said in a hurry: "Yuanqiu, we really didn't do anything, right?" ”

Yuan Qiu shook his head and squeezed a smile towards Aunt Zhang: "Auntie, it's okay." ”

Look at her and laugh, Aunt Zhang is even more drumming in her heart, this Yuanqiu has changed too much, in the past, people didn't dare to take a straight look, but now they can laugh when they hear that an official has come to the door?
