Chapter 82: Encountering a Rich Man

Seeing that Junxia was also so tall and talented, the aunt said happily: "Okay! You are really a good match with the baby!" Junxia knew that seeing her aunt was going to give a meeting gift, but there was no special gift, so she took out six small gold bills from her arms, each one or two, and stepped forward and said politely: "My nephew didn't bring any meeting gifts to my aunt, this is a little meaning, and I hope my aunt will smile!"

When the aunt saw that it was yellow, it must be gold, and said: "Such a heavy gift is enough to buy three acres of fertile land, how can the aunt accept it?" Jin Yu saw that the aunt didn't dare to accept it, and hurriedly said: "Aunt, but it's okay to accept it, who told him to think that he is the future nephew!" Junxia was even more interesting: "Auntie, if you recognize me as a nephew, you will accept it!" The aunt said happily: "If you don't accept it, then I have to accept it!" Yi Lan also said next to him: "Uncle but it doesn't hurt to accept it, your nephew is very rich!"

The aunt was even more happy: "It's good that the nephew has money, as long as the two of them have a good life without money, it doesn't matter, I'll take it!" followed Junxia and respectfully presented the gold coin to his aunt with both hands. Then the sister-in-law went to the inner room to move a stool out of the hall, and the inner room was smaller, and she couldn't sit on these many people.

It is rare to have true happiness in life, and now my aunt has realized it, and said: "Nephew, sit down, come, everyone sit down!" Today, everyone will go to my aunt's house for dinner, although my aunt's house is cold, but fortunately there are a few chickens and ducks. Then he looked up and said to his daughter-in-law: "Jin Lan, you go to the field and call your father and them back, the guests have been here for so long." ”

Even if the mother-in-law didn't say it, Jin Lan was going to call after serving tea to the two mothers-in-law and her mother-in-law, and said, "Mom, I'm about to call it!" Junxia knew that it was not easy for people in the village to stay and eat, so it was not good for people to kill chickens and ducks, and said: "Auntie, we still have things to do in a while, so we don't need to eat, and we will come to eat next time!"

Junxia was afraid that it would be dark after eating, and these dozen or so people would be inconvenient to live in, and it would be unreasonable to leave when it was really dark, so he said: "Auntie, don't worry, we all promise to come to see you within half a month!" And come in the morning, and it won't be dark when you go back after lunch." ”

When the aunt heard this, she thought that they were all particular people, and it was inconvenient to go back to the city when it was dark, and it was definitely not used to living in this broken courtyard, and said: "Don't be afraid, I will ask Jin Lan to wipe the bed clean in a while, and there are more particular girls in our courtyard, and it is okay to borrow their bed for one night." Jin Yu knew that it would be too much trouble for these many people to stay, and said, "Auntie, we won't stay or eat this time, I promise to come to see you soon!"

Seeing that Jinyu had said this, after all, the village was uncomfortable, and said, "It's okay, then you must come early next time!" I came back to see my aunt, but I didn't even eat a meal, and it didn't sound good to say it!" Junxia saw that her aunt agreed, and quickly thanked: "Thank you aunt for your understanding!"

Aunt Yin Junxia was generous and asked: "Nephew, you are so rich, what kind of business are you doing?" This time Junxia was asked, and it was not good to think about it for too long, so she replied: "Auntie, Xia Nan's family is in business, and they have earned some money over the years!" After chatting for a while, there were more old people in the courtyard who came to see the excitement, and there were two young girls and a good-looking guy, and at this moment Jinyu and her uncle also came back with hoes.

As soon as they entered the room, everyone immediately got up to salute, and Jin Yu stepped forward and saluted: "Hello uncle! Hello eldest brother!

Then Jin Lan introduced Junxia to them again: "Dad, this is your nephew Xia Nan!" Junxia hurriedly said: "The nephew has seen the uncle, the eldest brother, and the second brother!" The two brothers also returned the courtesy, and the uncle admired Junxia up and down, and said politely: "The nephew doesn't need to be polite!" Then Jin Yu introduced Yilan and them to the uncle. Jin Lan went to the next door and moved two benches.

After a period of greetings, Junxia asked with concern: "Uncle, how many fields do you have in your family?" The uncle hesitated at first, but when he thought that his nephew was not an outsider, he said that it didn't matter if he was poor, and replied: "Nephew! Uncle is not afraid to tell you, uncle's family is poor! There is no field, there are still five points of land, and our yard is planted with the lord's field to live!"

Perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps out of concern, Junxia asked intently, "What kind of cultivation method is the lord's field?" The uncle sighed and said, "If you plant one acre of the lord yourself, you have to help the lord plant four acres." The three men in our family planted four acres of land for the lord and sixteen acres for the lord. ”

When Jun Xia heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Uncle and brother have suffered!" and asked, "Uncle, how many people and how many households are there in this high courtyard?" Uncle thought about it and seemed to have an understanding, and replied: "There are nearly 300 people in our yard, 58 households, and many houses are about to collapse, there is no way, everyone is poor, and there is no money to repair!"

Jun Xia understood that Uncle Jinyu's family was poor, and wanted to make their yard stained with Jinyu's light, and also wanted to do a little bit of his nephew's affection, and said: "Uncle, if this yard is dismantled and covered a little better, how much gold will it cost?" When the uncle heard Jun Xia's words, he wondered if this beautiful nephew was going to help us build a new yard? He said with a smile: "If such a big yard is demolished and rebuilt, it will cost two or three hundred taels of gold!

Jun Xia asked again: "Uncle, how can the fields here be bought with gold?" After hearing this, the uncle was even more confused, could it be that his nephew wanted to buy land here? But why did he ask about demolishing the yard again? He replied: "Nephew, the price of our land here is two taels of gold per mu for a better field, two taels of gold for a slightly thinner field, and two or three points for a slightly thinner field; one tael of better land can be purchased for eight cents, and a thinner one or two acres. ”

After hearing this, Jun Xia made a slight calculation in his heart: "Uncle, tomorrow morning, my nephew will bring you 1,200 taels of gold with Jinyu and everyone, and the people in this courtyard, according to the capitation, each person will put one acre of fertile land and five points of good vegetable land, and the yard is also very old, and it is not safe to live, so please remove and rebuild! This matter will be troubled by you! Nephew Lang and Jinyu will also prepare another gift for you." ”

Uncle Hengxiang knew that he had met a rich man today, but he still said politely: "Nephew, let you break the bank, how can this be done!" Jin Yu understood that his uncle was waiting for him to speak!

Uncle Jinyu sat on the bench, bowed his head, didn't know whether to put it away or not, and was hesitating, Yi Lan fanned the fire and said: "Uncle, don't be polite with your nephew, your nephew's money, it can't be used up, you don't have to think about him, if you don't nod, your nephew still thinks you don't look down on him as a nephew!"

After hearing this, Uncle Hengxiang hurriedly raised his head and said, "Where is it, where is such a good nephew, then the uncle is here to thank the nephew and niece for the neighbors in the upper courtyard!" Junxia hurriedly said: "Uncle don't be polite, nephew and Jinyu can do something for uncle and neighbors, and it is also within their duty!" The old people and daughters-in-law and young men who were standing at the door of the hall watching the excitement listened, and they all thanked: "Thank you Wa'er! Thank you Wa'er!"
