"what."

Tao Xi scratched her hair, "I'm just too excited to fall asleep, by the way, I named the isolated island a few names, which one do you think is better?"

She only took out the page with the name on it.

However, Jian Shiming's eyes flickered when he looked at the thin white paper and the thin words written with an unknown pen.

Only then did Tao Xi realize that the paper and pen were the draft paper and ballpoint pen she exchanged from the space, and she felt a little annoyed.

But it has already been taken out, and it is impossible for her to hide it, so she can only pretend that she did not notice his strangeness, and said excitedly:

"I like the name Anle Island better, what do you think?"

A safe and happy island is the life Tao Xi wants to pursue in his heart.

Jian Shiming stared at the names on the paper in a daze, and said after a while:

"I think Xiwang Island is also good."

It has her name in it, which he likes, and it has a more hopeful meaning.

Tao Xi tilted his head, thought for a while, took the paper back and put it away, "Then call it Xiwang Island."

She also doesn't like other people yelling one by one. It's really awkward to call An Le, so she quickly went to wash up.

Outside, Jian Shirou was feeding the chickens. After the spring snow melted, Tao Xi made an excuse to go out. Now there are not only chickens and ducks in the house, but also cows, sheep, and little rabbits.

And Jian Shiyi was feeding his little rabbit again, and Jian Shiwu kept practicing in the yard with a bow and arrow.

After they finished their breakfast in a hurry, the master brought the yamen servants to measure the land, and Tao Xi cleverly greeted them at the entrance of the village.

And Jian Shirou was carrying a basket, and in the bamboo tube of the basket was the prepared cool white tea.

"Master, let's start measuring from our backyard."

She didn't bring anyone into the yard again. After all, the things in the yard were too eye-catching, and these people were no better than those in the village.

The master expressed his understanding. With Gu Yan's greeting, he didn't dare to offend Tao Xi, so he directly led people to measure from the back mountain of their yard.

Seeing such a lively scene, everyone in Taomu Village came over curiously.

Hu Ziniang is a gossip, she immediately grabbed Jian Shirou and asked, "Erni, what are you doing here?"

"Call me Jian Shirou."

Jian Shirou frowned, she was used to the gentleness of her sister-in-law, but suddenly she was not used to being called her by her nickname.

Hu Ziniang smiled embarrassingly, "Then call you Sister Rou, Sister Rou, what are these officials here for?"

She asked everyone's heartfelt thoughts, and everyone curiously followed not far behind the yamen servants, feeling itchy in their hearts.

The sister-in-law didn't tell them to hide it from the villagers, so Jian Shiyi raised her neck 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, with disbelief in her eyes, as if he was joking, a thousand acres of land, that's not a thousand potatoes.

Jian Shiwu frowned dissatisfied, and explained: "My little brother is right, my sister-in-law bought a thousand acres of land."

"My dear mother, how much money do you get for a thousand acres of land?"

"1000 taels, we can't find that much silver in the whole village."

"My dear, where did brother Ming's family get so much money?"

"..."

When Xu Lizheng came, he heard this appalling words, walked up to Jian Shiming in a few steps, and asked in a very low voice:

"Brother Ming, what's going on with your family?"

"Lizheng, you heard me right, we did buy a thousand acres of land."

Jian Shiming affirmed the words of the two younger brothers, then looked at the crowd who were either envious or jealous or amazed, and said:
"Earlier, my wife helped a noble man, and you have seen the things Mr. Gu sent. My wife sold all the valuables and exchanged them for silver.

The same is true for the previous wild boar grain. In addition, we borrowed some from someone and just bought this thousand mu of land. "

You can't hide it, this land will belong to their family in the future, it's good to tell everyone, it will save them from abusing their family's land.

Everyone was slightly dumbfounded, even Li Zheng's jaw dropped, and he looked at Tao Xi in front of him who was talking to the master in disbelief.

"Brother Ming, your wife is really a good housekeeper."

After speaking, he glanced at the back mountain, and persuaded: "But the land in the back mountain is not convenient for opening up wasteland. If you buy it, you will lose money."

"Yes, yes, Brother Ming, you have to take care of your wife."

"Tao Xi is usually very clever, why is he confused this time?"

"There's so little that can be planted in this land, if you have this money, it's better to save it for Brother Ming 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 is completely on Tao Xi's side, he said with a smile:

"My wife is smart, she has plans for everything, so I support her unconditionally."

"I also support sister-in-law!"

Jian Shirou stood beside Jian Shiming, her eyes were full of firmness, not to mention Jian Shiwu and Jian Shiyi, they have always helped to question Tao Xi's words.

Such a scene made the little daughter-in-law in the village very envious, "Look at her Taoxi, she is really blessed, and everyone in the family believes in her."

Even the matter of spending so much money to buy land for nothing is supported by everyone.

The slander in this person's heart was not spoken, but everyone knew it well.

Someone couldn't help but said: "Which decision made by Brother Ming's family is not right?

I think she must have a deep meaning in buying the land, maybe there is a good way to make money. "

This person is Chen Liehu. 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 strange thought, "I can't say that, what if she gets confused this time?"

"Brother Ming has no objections, you guys really think too much."

"Isn't it a pity for so much money?"

"1000 taels, I've never seen it before."

"..."

Regardless of what everyone thought, Tao Xi and his master quickly measured the land, and Jian Shirou politely gave each of them a piece of meat pie.

They were sent out of Taomu Village, but the people in Taomu Village were reluctant to leave and surrounded their Jian's house.

Someone couldn't help asking: "Brother Ming's house, this land is yours, so can we not pick the wild vegetables from your back mountain?"

"It's okay to pick some wild vegetables, but if we grow something in the future, it won't work."

Tao Xi already had a plan in mind, afraid that everyone would be overwhelmed, she smiled and said:
"Don't worry, everyone, whether it's growing things or raising animals, we are all from Taomu Village. Even if we are looking for a part-time job, we will first consider the people in our village."

She spoke luxuriously at the front, and everyone was immediately overjoyed, and they all praised Tao Xi for being smart, which made Tao Xi dumbfounded.
