Chapter Fifty-Four: Is There Your Evil Sect?
After settling those people, Wang Yuzhong took Xie Zi'an and Qi Lele to see the land again.
Walking in the fields, Qi Lele was a little puzzled: "There are obviously many paddy fields here, why is no one selling them?"
"Shangxi Village is located in the south, eat more rice, paddy fields are the foundation of survival, no one will sell unless absolutely necessary." Xie Zi'an asked, "You also want to grow rice?"
Qi Lele shook his head decisively, and after a while, he said, "If there is a suitable paddy field, you can try it."
"Uncle Wang?"
Wang Yuzhong said: "If you want to buy it, it is not difficult."
Qi Lele was about to nod his head and say yes, but he heard him answer again: "If you have more silver, someone will always be willing to sell it."
「……」
Xie Zi'an looked at someone's expression that froze instantly, turned his head, and showed a pleasant smile.
"Let's look at the good fields first, the paddy fields are not in a hurry, and if you buy too much at once, you can't take care of it."
Wang Yuzhong did not doubt that he had him, and he responded well.
It was Du Jiang's family who sold the land this time, and he had no relationship with Du Lanqiu's family, and he sold the land because there were few people in the family, and he really couldn't plant it.
It is also strange to say that these fields of his family, whether they are rented to others or hired by themselves for long and short jobs, have to make some trouble every year, and after a year of busy living, they will take care of the money for taxes and servitude.
It's probably annoying, so I'm going to simply sell it.
Du Jiang is a black and thin man, there are deep Sichuan lines between his eyebrows, as if there is a sorrow that cannot be dissolved, in fact, his family's life is very rich, and the only regret is that the family is not prosperous enough.
"Just these few acres, 25 taels and one acres, no bargaining."
Qi Lele said, "Uncle Du, I remember one year, during the autumn harvest, wild boars came down the mountain and destroyed a lot of your corn, right? Is this the piece?"
Du Jiang nodded.
Qi Lele said again: "There is another year of heavy rain, and the rain from the mountains washed down and flooded a few acres of your family's fields, is this one?"
Du Jiang was a little reluctant, but he still nodded.
Qi Lele continued: "One year, there was thunder, and in the middle of the night, it split your land and burned a large area, this is the ......
Du Jiang's already dark face became even darker, and he directly interrupted Qi Lele: "How many acres do you want to buy?"
"18 acres!"
Du Jiang turned around decisively: "Don't sell it!"
Qi Lexam stood there, not panicked at all, didn't sell it, and saved her money!
Du Jiang walked all the way out, and no one called him behind him, he sighed, turned around and walked back: "20 taels and one acres."
Qi Lele shook his head: "Uncle Du, your family's few acres of land are indeed a bit evil, and we are taking a lot of risks to buy them."
"No matter how evil the sect is, can there still be your evil sect?" Du Jiang blurted out, and after speaking, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate, and moved the corners of his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Qi Lele didn't care: "So I'm not thinking about gambling? But 20 taels is really too expensive, and I can buy normal fertile land with a few more."
The folds between Du Jiang's eyebrows deepened, as if he had been oppressed.
Xie Zi'an said, "Uncle Du, do you want to think about it again, it's not too early, let's go back first."
"Sell! How many acres do you want."
Xie Zi'an smiled, "Uncle Du wants to sell as much as we want, we will buy it."
In the end, Du Jiang sold six acres of land near the mountain, and sold everything that had problems. After the deal was negotiated, Du Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had thrown away the hot potato.
"These few acres of land, you'd better not plant corn, those animals in the mountains have sperm and can smell it, and corn is too attractive to them."
"We made a note of it, thank you, uncle."
On the way back, Wang Yuzhong said, "I'm sorry."
Qi Lele was stunned for a moment, then understood what he was referring to, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, I don't believe in that, what's more, those things are just coincidences."
"The year the wild boars came down the mountain because of the drought and the lack of food in the mountains, so they touched the mountains. beat
The thunder fire was also caused by the mountain fire because it was too close to the mountain forest; As for being washed away by the flood, it was not only their family that suffered that year."
Xie Zi'an interjected coldly: "Have you ever eaten wild boar?"
Qi Lele was speechless: "The wild boar is fishy and woody, not delicious!"
"Then you don't plant corn."
Qi Lele: "......"
If wild boar is delicious, do you plan to deliberately plant corn to lure them down the mountain?
Xie Zi'an raised his eyebrows, as if to say, why not?
Wang Yuzhong saw that they really didn't care, so he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, and at the same time he had a little more respect for this young lady.
I signed a contract with Li Li, and overheard him say that the person who taught everyone to raise silkworms was coming to their village in the next two days.
Xie Zi'an smiled and asked, "I don't know if it's too late for us to decide to raise silkworms."
When the Xie family came to settle down, Li Zheng knew that they were extraordinary, and now when he opened his mouth, how could he not agree: "It's not too late, it's not too late! It's just that you only have one acre of woodland, and I'm afraid it's not enough."
"We'll buy some more in a few days."
Risho laughed, "That's the best."
A few people were talking and laughing, and suddenly someone hurriedly ran over: "Uncle, something happened to Du Xiucai's family, you hurry up and take a look!"
There has only been one surnamed Du Xiucai over the years, even if that person has not been heard from for many years, everyone will still call Du Xiucai, and they will not be too harsh on his wife and daughter.
Qi Lele knew that it was Du Lanqiu who had made a move.
Xie Zi'an said, "You are good friends with Du Lanqiu, let's go and see it together."
Qi Lele looked at Li Zheng.
Li Zheng said, "Let's go together."
The group hurried over, and heard a lot of people outside a simple courtyard from afar.
In the courtyard, Du Lanqiu was kneeling beside an old woman, and grabbed her sleeve: "Milk, please save my mother!"
The old woman tried hard to pull back her sleeve: "Ouch! It's not that the milk doesn't save your mother, and the milk doesn't have any silver on it!"
"Then let the uncle, the second uncle, and the fourth uncle lend me some silver, and I promise to pay it back!"
"They are all separated, how can I be their master!"
Du Lanqiu cried, "Milk, you made me sick, you can't die without help!"
The old woman's face changed suddenly: "You girl, how can you speak! Your mother is a sick child, what does it matter to me? If you continue to fight with me, your mother will really not be able to do it!"
"What's going on?"
Seeing that Li Zheng was coming, Du Lanqiu knelt down and walked a few steps: "You have to be the master for me!" Just now, my grandmother and a few of my aunts came over, and my mother fainted, Dr. Liu said that he couldn't save him, and he had to go to the hospital in the county, but at this time and a half, how could I have the money to go to the city? I want my grandmother and uncle to lend me some money, so that I can take my mother to save her life."
The old woman was anxious: "What are you talking about! What do you mean to make us stun your mother? I haven't said a word yet!"
Du Lanqiu said, "I heard it all! The man you found for me was not a good family at all, that man was lame, he also married a daughter-in-law, and beat her to death, my mother refused to let me marry her, you had to force her to agree, and said that my father had died a long time ago, and no one supported our mother, and my mother fainted in a fit of anger!"
Li Zheng straightened his face and looked at the old woman, "Is there such a thing?"
The old woman suddenly lost her arrogance, shrunk her neck and said, "Then, I don't know about it, it's all my old family's daughter-in-law."
Du Lanqiu said, "Uncle, please, let my grandmother borrow some silver and let me take my mother to the city."
Hearing the money, the old woman stiffened her neck and said, "My life is here! Either you take it and ask for the money!"
Li Zheng was a little embarrassed, and it was okay to say what was going on, but he couldn't tell it for a while when he got the silver, and the people in the house might not be able to wait, he looked at Du Lanqiu's pitiful appearance, his heart softened, and he was about to speak.
"I'll lend you the money! Take your aunt first
It is important for you to go to the city."
Du Lanqiu was pleasantly surprised, wiped her tears hard, and when she got up, her legs and feet were still a little weak, Qi Lele stepped forward, held her, and shook her hand hard.
Xie Zi'an said, "There is a carriage at home, I will send you there."
Not long after, Wang Yuzhong drove the carriage over, and at this time, the people who watched the excitement also stepped forward to help and carried You Qingyun, who had fainted, into the carriage.
Before leaving, Li Zheng said: "Your mother is still here, your marriage, if she doesn't nod, no one can force you."
Du Lanqiu nodded with tears and got into the carriage.
