The terrain opposite Mitaki Creek is low, and the farther places are paddy fields, and the closer places will flood as soon as the water rises, so who will build a house anywhere.

Bai Yuanan thought for a moment when he heard this and asked, "How much silver does it cost to not get close to Mitaki Creek?" ”

"Half an acre of land for a tael of silver, this is the lowest price my uncle gave you." Chen Lizheng said with a sincere look.

Bai Yemao's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and Bai Yuanan shook his head directly, "Uncle Lizheng, you also know the situation of our family, I can't afford this money." ”

Chen Lizheng raised his eyes when he heard this, "Then you can do it yourself, this money is not for me, this is for the Chen clan, after all, you are not from our Chen clan, and I am also giving an explanation to the clan." ”

Bai Yuanan knew that this was not credible, who knew if you gave it or not, so after thinking about it, he said directly: "Uncle Lizheng, do you want money for that piece of land near Mitaki Creek at the foot of the West Mountain?" ”

Chen Lizheng raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this, "You want that place?" Then you should know where no one is building a house, right? ”

Bai Yuanan nodded, "I know, it should be fine for me to fence it with a wooden stake when the time comes." ”

Chen Lizheng was silent for a while before he spoke, "You are sure where you want, if you are not afraid, for the sake of your father's face, I will not accept your money, but you don't regret it when the time comes." ”

In the end, Bai Yuanan still chose that place, except for hearing that there were wolves running down from Xishan to eat people a long time ago, everything else was very good.

After choosing the land, everyone made an appointment to go to the yamen to report the formalities after the New Year, and then the Bai family father and son said goodbye and left.

Chen Fugui inside took a sip of tea and muttered: "This is really, the poor are not afraid of death." ”

Bai Yuanan returned home and told the Jiang family the final situation, and the Jiang family, who was breastfeeding the child, was silent for a while when he heard this, and finally sighed, "Forget it, that's it, I've only heard of that place, and I haven't really seen a wolf or any beast come down, hey, if we have money in the future, we will change places." ”

And Bai Xiaowei, who is drinking milk, oh, no, her name is Bai Ruixue now, and she called her Ruixue when her mother fed her in the morning, and she said that her new name was not bad. And the family is also surnamed Bai, I don't know if this is a special fate.

Bai Ruixue said that she was very happy to hear that she was about to have a new home, and at the same time prayed that she would grow up soon, at least she would be able to walk on her own.

After the New Year, on the appointed day, Bai Yuanan took a tael of silver from the Song family in advance and followed Chen Lizheng to the yamen, although this housing land does not require a lot of silver like buying and selling good land, but the basic handling fee is still required, and those officials who help with the formalities also have to give some benefits, as well as Chen Lizheng who brought him over.

Even this land that doesn't cost money needs a tael of silver to be done, and if it does, he doesn't have to build a house after he does it.

Now in addition to the four taels of silver that my mother promised to give their family, plus the less than six taels of silver they have saved over the years, this will cost almost one tael, hey.

After Bai Yuanan and Chen Lizheng separated, he looked at the deed that had been completed in his hand and sighed again, and then continued to walk briskly in the direction of home.

Yanxi Village has to cross the bridge when you go out, and there is only one bridge in the village, which is in the east of the village, so no matter where you live, you have to go to the east of the village to cross the bridge if you want to go out.

And the Bai family is in the west of the village, and every time they go out, they have to go to almost the entire village, so when they see Bai Yuanan passing by, they will ask a few questions if they are curious, and Bai Yuanan will also greet him with a smile, but for the time being, he didn't say anything about building another house by splitting his family, after all, their family has not been publicly divided.
