Chapter 218: Your Lady Is Really a Good Housekeeper
"Ahh
Tao Xi scratched his hair, "It's just that I'm too excited to sleep, by the way, I gave the island a few names, do you think it's better to use that?" ”
She only took out the page on which she had taken her name.
However, Jian Shiming's eyes flashed when he looked at the thin white paper and the thin words written out by the pen that he didn't know what pen to.
Tao Xi realized that the paper and pen were the scratch paper and ballpoint pen she had exchanged from the space, and she was immediately a little annoyed.
But she had already taken it out, and it was impossible for her to hide it, so she could only pretend not to notice his abnormality, and said excitedly:
"I prefer the name Anle Island, what do you think?"
A safe and happy island, this is the life that Tao Xi wants to pursue in his heart.
Jian Shiming looked at the name on the paper and was distracted, and said after a while:
"I think Keiwang Island is also good."
It had her name in it, which he liked, and it was more hopeful.
Tao Xi tilted his head, thought about it, and took the paper back and put it away, "Then let's call it Xiwang Island." ”
She doesn't like others to call it one by one, and if it's called Anle, it's really a little awkward, and she went to wash up quickly.
Outside, Jian Shirou was feeding the chickens, and after the snow melted in the spring, Tao Xi went out under the pretext of going out, and now there are not only chickens and ducks at home, but also cows, sheep and rabbits.
And Jian Shiyi was feeding his little rabbit again, and Jian Shiwu kept practicing in the yard with a bow and arrow.
They hurriedly finished breakfast, and the master took the official to measure the land, and Tao Xi greeted him wisely at the entrance of the village.
And Jian Shirou was carrying a basket, and the bamboo tube of the basket was filled with prepared cool white open.
"Master, let's start measuring in our backyard."
She didn't take anyone into the courtyard again, after all, the things in the courtyard were too eye-catching, and these people were no better than the people in the village.
The master said that he understood, and with Gu Yan's greeting, he didn't dare to offend Tao Xi, so he directly led people to start measuring from the back mountain of their yard.
Seeing such a lively scene, everyone in Taomu Village came over curiously.
Hu Ziniang is a gossip person, so she immediately grabbed Jian Shirou and asked, "Erni, what are you doing here?" ”
"Call me Jian Shirou."
Jian Shirou frowned, accustomed to the gentleness of her sister-in-law, and suddenly she was a little unaccustomed to being called by her nickname.
Huzi Niang smiled wryly, "Then call you Sister Rou, Sister Rou, what are these officials here to do?" ”
She asked everyone's thoughts, and everyone followed curiously not far behind the officials, itching in their hearts.
The sister-in-law did not explain that they wanted to hide it from the villagers, so Jian Shiyi's children raised their necks proudly.
"My sister-in-law bought a thousand acres of land in the back mountain, and they came to measure the land."
"God, Brother Yi, are you sure you're right?"
Hu Ziniang covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes were in disbelief, as if he was joking, a thousand acres of land, that is not a thousand potatoes.
Jian Shiwu frowned dissatisfiedly and explained: "My younger brother is not wrong, my sister-in-law bought a thousand acres of land. ”
"I'm a mother, how much silver do you get for a thousand acres of land?"
"One thousand taels, we can't find so much silver in our whole village."
"I'm a good girl, where did Brother Ming'er's family get so much silver?"
“……”
When Xu Li was coming, he heard these appalling words, walked up to Jian Shiming in a few steps, and asked in a very low voice:
"Brother Ming, what's going on in your house?"
"Li Zheng, you heard it right, we did buy a thousand acres of land."
Jian Shiming affirmed the words of the two younger brothers, and then looked at the people who were envious, jealous or amazed, and said:
"Earlier, my lady helped a nobleman, and you also saw the things sent by Master Gu, and my lady sold everything valuable and exchanged it for silver.
The same is true of the previous wild boar grain, and we also borrowed some from someone to buy this thousand acres of land. ”
It is impossible to hide it, this land will belong to their family in the future, and it is good to tell everyone, they will abuse their family's land in the province.
Everyone was slightly stunned, even Li Zheng dropped his jaw in shock, and looked at Tao Xi who was talking to the master in front of him incredulously.
"Brother Ming, your lady is really a good housekeeper."
After speaking, he glanced at the back mountain, and then persuaded: "But the land in the back mountain is not convenient to open up wasteland, and if you buy it, you will lose money." ”
"Yes, Brother Ming, you have to take care of your lady."
"Tao Xi is usually quite clever, why is he confused this time."
"There is so little that can be planted in this land, it is better to keep this silver for Brother Ming'er to take the exam."
“……”
Because Tao Xi had helped them, they didn't dare to speak too much, at most they just muttered a few words and gave friendly suggestions.
However, Jian Shiming was completely on Tao Xi's side, and he said with a smile:
"My lady is a smart person, and she has her plans to do everything, so I support her unconditionally."
"I also support my sister-in-law!"
Jian Shirou stood beside Jian Shiming, her eyes were full of determination, not to mention Jian Shiwu and Jian Shiyi, the two of them had never helped question Tao Xi's words.
Such a scene made the little daughter-in-law in the village particularly envious, "Look at Taoxi, it's really blessed, and everyone in the family believes in her." ”
Even the fact that so much money was spent to buy land and water was lost, everyone supported it.
The slander in this man's heart is unspoken, but everyone knows it.
Someone couldn't help but say, "Which decision of Brother Ming'er's family was not right?"
I think she must have a deep meaning in buying land, and maybe there is a good way to make money. ”
This person is Chen Lihu, he has blind confidence in Tao Xi, after all, he has cooperated so many times, and he has never seen Tao Xi miscalculate.
However, there is always that kind of strange thought, "You can't say that, what if she gets confused this time?" ”
"Brother Ming, you don't have any opinions, you think so much."
"Isn't it a pity for me to have so much silver?"
"A thousand taels, I've never seen it."
“……”
No matter what everyone thinks, Tao Xi took the master to quickly measure the ground, and Jian Shirou politely gave each of them a piece of meatloaf.
sent them out of Taomu Village, but the people of Taomu Village were reluctant to leave and surrounded their Jane's house.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "Brother Ming'er's family, this land has become yours, can't we pick the wild vegetables in the mountains behind you?" ”
"It's okay to pick some wild vegetables, but if we plant things in the future, it won't work."
Tao Xi already had a plan in her heart, afraid that everyone would be too careful, she smiled and said:
"Don't worry, whether it's planting things or raising animals, we are all from Taomu Village, even if we want to find a short-term job, we will consider the people in our village first."
She said luxuriously in front, and suddenly everyone was happy, and praised Tao Xi one by one for being smart, which made Tao Xi cry and laugh.
