The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 402
It's one thing to laugh at the old man. The couple have lived together for so many years, and they know each other very well.

A countryman who has worked hard all his life, Shi actually understands the feeling of not being able to relax.

"You don't know how to do carpentry. You used to knock and beat to make things for your family during the slack season. Now you can find a few pieces of wood to make some gadgets for your precious grandson."

It was after hearing her parents-in-law arguing and gossiping that Fang Qingqing had such an idea.

"Mother, when we were in the capital, didn't we have Zhuangzi to plant land? It can also be our property to buy fields here, and we can eat what we grow at home in the past few years."

Fang Qingqing didn't just talk, she went to the yamen servant to inquire about the market, and a few tens of taels of silver can buy ten acres of land.

For her, it was enough, and it happened to be able to find some new style seeds from the system to try.

When it comes to buying land, Mrs. Shi is fine, but that really touched Old Man Li's heart.

When he was in the countryside, his greatest wish in his life was to buy a few more acres of land?

The field is the foundation of a farmer. With the field in hand, no matter how well the sons do outside, the family can always be the final backing for them.

Of course, not only with her in-laws, Fang Qingqing also told Master Li about this when he came back to rest at night.

Li Xiuping thought it was quite good, "Madam's idea is right, everything in the family follows Madam's arrangement."

Fang Qingqing rolled his eyes at him, "You can listen to me in everything? What is that called? We are husband and wife, and we should negotiate and discuss things.

Mr. Xianggong, you are busy outside. Of course, you should listen to me for the trivial matters at home, but you must listen to Mr. Xianggong at night when it comes to big matters. "

As for which are small and which are big, Fang Qingqing must have the final say!
But, man, it's not impossible to give him a little face to satisfy his weak vanity.

Sure enough, Li Xiuping's facial expression didn't change but the corner of his mouth turned up, which showed his mood.

"Yes, what Madam said is correct. No matter how we are living now, we must not forget our roots in life, so that parents with land and land can feel at ease in their hearts."

Of course, Fang Qingqing's plan was more than that, but she didn't want to freely promise the results before the matter was successful.

And many of these places need the help of the system space, and these cannot be explained to others.

After the opinions of the four adults in the family are unified, this matter can be implemented.

In fact, in recent years, apart from the more expensive rewards from the palace, the family's source of income is Li Xiuping's salary.

The big ones are Princess Fang Qingqing's share, because those things include not only gold, silver and jewelry, but also rice, flour, grain, oil, silk and satin, and the output of the princess's fiefdom.

The fee she earns as a doctor is not high, and many times she will give medicines for free when encountering intractable diseases or patients who are too poor.

It can be said that Lao Li's family can basically provide food, clothing, housing and transportation by themselves, so there is actually not much cash in hand.

Fortunately, the local land is not expensive, but there are not many people buying and selling land privately.

I haven't found a suitable one for a while, but I just keep this matter in mind for the time being, and I must do well when I find a suitable opportunity.

After waiting for a few days, it happened to be a fine day with clear weather, Mr. Li, who rarely had time to rest and take a bath, went out with his family.

But it turned out that it was Old General Qin who built a courtyard on a mountain in the suburbs of Yangfeng. The air on the mountain is good with flowers and trees, suitable for recuperation and exercise.

He was thinking that his grandson could continue to recuperate here, and he didn't plan to travel around when he was old. He could consider staying in Yangfeng County temporarily in the past few years.

The main reason is that the old general Qin had a great influence on Li Xiuping, a junior, and he also believed that Yangfeng County would get better and better under the governance of Master Li, so he had the confidence to live here temporarily.

Old General Qin took Qin Zhenjie to live on the mountain for a few days, and invited Master Li's family to go there together.

You must know that it is not easy to buy good land here, because ordinary people will not easily sell their lives | roots, but it is still easy to buy a barren mountain or build a house on the mountain.

It happened that Mr. Li felt a little tired from working in the yamen during this time, and wanted to take his parents, wife and children out for a walk.

After Fang Qingqing knew about it, she was also very interested to take a look. In fact, she didn't necessarily have to buy fertile land.

I have stored different types of seeds suitable for different qualities of soil in the system space before, maybe it can be used?

Because there are many people who are going to go, old man Li Shi, Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li, and two children.

He must also need to accompany the guards, Mrs. Ding, the servant, and some household necessities. A carriage and an ox cart are not enough.

Since they settled down in Yangfeng, Li's family originally purchased a carriage, and it was only later that old man Li also came to live in that they bought an ox cart.

Generally speaking, cars are easy to buy, but the horses and cattle that pull them are not easy to come across.

It is very precious for an ordinary peasant family to have a cow. You must know that one cow can support five or six strong laborers in the family when working.

Naturally, he waited carefully, and was simply reluctant to let the ox pull the cart.

Master Li is not an ordinary person after all, he is the biggest official in this small county, Yangfeng.

When it was known that Mr. Li intended to buy an ox cart, many local gentry and wealthy households came to the door to say that they had a suitable ox cart and "traded" with him.

Li Xiuping naturally knew that this deal was sent to his door by those people, and now it seems that he took advantage of it.

In the future, there will be a price to pay;

Even the old Li Shi, who loves money and doesn't understand righteousness, knows that although an official must seek benefits for his family and live a good life, he must not forget his conscience and duty as a human being.

As the parent official of a county, he has to make decisions for all the people in the county. If he only thinks about making friends with the gentry and wealthy households, he will only lose his heart in life in the end.

So after searching for a while, old man Li sometimes went out to make friends with some old men who were as free as him after he came here, so he got the opportunity to buy a suitable one at a place that specializes in raising cattle and horses, and then bought a cattle cart for his family. .

In this way, even if the whole family went out together, it would be enough to take a person plus a luggage cart and an ox cart.

Although living here for a long time, the son and daughter-in-law are busy every day, and old man Li and Shi Shi also have their own lives.

It's the first time for such a family to travel together, and they are very happy.

Shi Shi led the little girl, and Fang Qingqing held Mingzhu in her arms. They were riding in the carriage together.

Old man Li was sitting on the bullock cart, even if he was with the luggage, he would be happy, it was much better than walking.

After all, men and women are different, and it is not convenient for him to sit in the same car with his daughter-in-law.

Even if it is an ox cart, I have never ridden in the countryside before, and I have to walk on my feet when I go to the county town for a few hours.
