The old men of the three families look at me and I look at him. In the end, old man Zhou laughed and said, "Okay! I'll leave this matter to Brother Qi!"

"Yes, let's do this first, and then talk about other things when you settle down!"

Mr. Wang followed suit.

Mr. Sun naturally has no objections.

The three old men asked the sons of each family to collect the money, and then they studied together to get more wooden boxes to grow vegetables before leaving the second courtyard.

The other three families did not expect that they would earn more than one or two taels of silver in less than a month, and they were all very happy, and they were particularly excited about the days to come.

As soon as the time turned, it was the first day of the twelfth lunar month.

The Chinese New Year is one month away, and at this time, the four families have saved a lot of money by selling vegetables.

Especially the Qi family.

Because the place is big, and Yimeng has a cheating weapon of space, he can earn even more money.

So that day when the men in the family went out to cut firewood, Yi Meng came to the second elder's house.

Qi Zheng just filled the cigarette bag with tobacco leaves, and was about to go out to chat with the old brothers. When he saw the fourth daughter-in-law coming in, he said, "Come to see Man Baoer? The child followed Shiro and the others to listen to the teacher's lecture."

"Father, no, I'm here to discuss something with you and mother."

As Yi Meng said, she put the tray in her hand on the Kang table.

Inside the tray is a pot of red dates and ginger water, and a plate of peanuts.

Qi Zheng was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

During this period of time, the family lived very peacefully. Everyone had something to do. Even Qi Shilang and Qi Manman, the youngest in the family, would follow other children to the two doctors to learn to read and write every morning.

I don't know if I can understand or not, but I do know a lot of words.

So Qi Zheng really couldn't imagine what the fourth daughter-in-law would do if they came to see the old couple at this time.

Qi Cheng was sitting on the kang drying the quilt.

The sun shines on the kang through the window paper, and she puts the children's quilts there to dry.

Although the kang is hot, the quilt will not be damp, but the fourth daughter-in-law said that it is good to get more sun, so whenever the weather is good, she takes out the children's quilt to dry.

Upon hearing this, Qi Cheng also stopped what he was doing and looked at Yi Meng.

Yi Meng said with a smile: "It's a good thing."

Seeing that the two elders were sitting beside the kang table, Yi Meng sat down and continued: "The Chinese New Year is only a month away, and our frozen fish should also be sold outside, so we can get more money from the sale and pass the money to Minglu , and then shall we buy this yard?"

"Do you really want to buy it?"

When Qi Cheng heard this, he immediately said: "Didn't our family buy land? Turning around and building a house, who would live in the city!"

I also mentioned the matter of buying this yard before, but because the cost is too high and it is easy to attract people's attention, so I put it on hold for the time being.

Now that it is mentioned again, Qi Cheng feels that this is a waste of money.

But Qi Zheng didn't object immediately, instead he thought about it seriously, and then said: "This yard probably costs a lot of money, if someone asks about it, what should we say?"

"Don't say it!"

Yi Meng has also considered this issue: "It's our own business to buy a house. Second brother and Jin brother have also dealt with the government several times. This time, even the middlemen don't need to be alarmed. Just spend more time Take money to sort out the paperwork in the government."

"Besides, we didn't say anything after we bought the yard. People won't know about it in the short term. As for when people find out, our family's life will probably be better than it is now, and they won't be able to say anything."

This explanation made Qi Zheng nod his head.

Indeed, they have a large family and are able to work, so there is no reason for them to make life worse.

But Qi Cheng frowned and retorted: "Such a big yard, why buy it and leave it empty? We can still live in it all the time!"

"Mother, we have analyzed this matter before. Think about it, if there is chaos outside and our village has not developed, what should we do? Can we still drag our families and escape like before?"

"But look at the city walls of Jicheng, and those officers and soldiers. If something really happens, let's just hide in the city, so we don't have to worry about having nowhere to live?"

Yi Meng had no choice but to bring up this reason again.

It has to be said that this reason really successfully blocked Qi Cheng's mouth.

Qi Zheng stuffed the smoke pot with salt, lit the fire on the fire, clicked it twice, and then said: "Okay, let the second and fourth sons ask how much the house is, as long as it's not too expensive. Let's buy it."

"Old man, you..." How could you agree so quickly!

Qi Cheng wanted to ask, but after seeing the old man shaking his head at him, he still kept his mouth shut.

Yi Meng got the answer she wanted and didn't wait long, told Qi Cheng to drink more jujube and ginger water and left.

When there were only two old people left in the house, Qi Cheng cursed in a low voice: "This big guy in the yard costs five taels of silver a month, and you may not know how much money you can buy it. How can you say yes and say yes?"

Qi Zheng smiled and said, "Old lady, even if we don't agree, we won't buy this house?"

Seeing that the other party is puzzled, Qi Zheng just needs to speak bluntly: "I'm afraid you forgot, who is holding our family's money now?"

Qi Cheng's eyes widened suddenly, then he patted his legs, and said, "I knew something would happen to me if I ignored this house!"

After finishing speaking, he began to move to the side of the kang, still muttering in bits and pieces: "No! I still have to take care of this house!"

"Okay, don't interfere."

Qi Zheng grabbed the old wife's arm: "Since I have handed over the money to the fourth daughter-in-law, let her take care of it. You are coming back now, not to mention whether the fourth daughter-in-law will have a lump in her heart." , What if the other daughter-in-laws find out that there is a pimple between their sisters-in-law?"

"But, it's really useless to buy such a big yard!"

Qi Cheng retorted, but his movements stopped.

Alas, it's all the old man's fault. How can he hand over so much money to a daughter-in-law?
"Whether it's useful or not, you'll know when you buy it."

Qi Zheng took another two puffs of cigarettes: "Besides, it's not like you don't know how our family's money came from. If the owner in front of us really came back and took the house back, he found that the things under the ground were gone. , what will you do if you trouble our family?"

When Qi Cheng heard this, his face turned pale, and then he said with great certainty: "Buy! Must buy! In case there is chaos outside in the future, our family will still have a hiding place!"

She would never admit that she was afraid that the previous homeowner would take back the yard and trouble their old Qi's family again!
