Chapter 409 meet again
Seeing this scene, Qing Luo couldn't help curling the corners of her lips and smiling knowingly.

It seems that Guixiang seems to be a little tempted by Rongcheng.

Gui Xiang is already in her early twenties, and she has already reached the age to marry. Although she brought Gui Xiang out of the Lin Mansion, she never thought of delaying her marriage.

It's just that guy Rongcheng always looks like a fool. He has the same virtue as Lan Hao, and he can't walk when he sees a beautiful girl.If he can't take it easy, there's no need to match him and Gui Xiang.

Gui Xiang is a serious person who lives her life. If she can't find a suitable person, it's better to let her live a carefree life as she is now.

Qingluo is confident that at least under her wings, Guixiang and Suxin can live a peaceful and comfortable life without letting them live in the face of men.

It is time to talk to them separately.

Thinking of this, Qing Luo saw a small yamen servant hurried to the door of the backyard and said something to Rong Cheng.

Rong Cheng turned to look at her, walked over, and said, "Huang Butou is back, and brought rich man Li and Li Beibei back. Do you want to see her now, or..."

Hearing this, Qingluo suppressed the smile on her face, put down her teacup, and said slowly: "I'll see you now, let them wait in the court!"

"Miss, change your clothes and go to work."

Guixiang hurriedly brought a set of clothes, changed her homely soft robe, combed her hair, and added a thin cape, and told Rongcheng to follow her carefully before letting her go.

"This Guixiang really treats you like a child." Rongcheng shook his head when he walked out of the yard.

Qing Luo pursed her lips and smiled: "She has been with me for many years, and she has always been careful and prudent, it's just a habit. But you, have you ever thought about starting a family?"

"Get married?" Rong Cheng chuckled, "Unless I find a girl who looks like a fairy, how can I be willing to get married?"

Qingluo: "Bah! Why should a girl who looks like a fairy fall in love with you!"

She has no time to talk about this right now, and she has already seen rich man Li and Li Beibei before she got to the court.

Rich man Li walked back and forth, looking very anxious, as if he was frightened by being caught once.

Li Beibei, on the other hand, sat quietly on the chair, bowing his head in thought.

Hearing the footsteps of Qingluo and Rongcheng, she raised her head and saw Qingluo who was safe and sound, with a somewhat surprised and complicated expression.

"Ah, I have met the county magistrate." Rich man Li hurried over to salute Qing Luo.

Qing Luo waved her hands, walked to the court, sat down, and said calmly: "Mr. Li, there is no need to be polite, I haven't congratulated you yet on your return home."

"Hehe..." Rich Man Li smiled awkwardly. He turned his head and saw Li Beibei sitting still, and couldn't help being furious, "Why don't you come here and greet the county magistrate! The bigger you are, the more unruly you are!"

Li Beibei frowned.

When she met Qingluo in the past, she never had to care about the rules of etiquette, so that she never thought about the current status gap between her and Qingluo.

Rich Li stared at her, so she had no choice but to stand up reluctantly and give Qingluo a blessing.

Qingluo just looked at her blankly, didn't speak, and didn't say excuse me.

Rich Li saw the embarrassment in the atmosphere, and hurriedly smoothed things over, "Hehe, I don't know if my lord called us father and daughter here today, what's the matter?"

"Oh, there is an important matter." Qingluo took out the materials prepared by Lin Liu, threw them to him, and said, "You are in Qili Village, there is a piece of saline-alkali land, right?"

"Saline-alkali land?" Rich Li couldn't understand.

"It's the land behind the small hill, where no grain grows."

"Oh, that's right, half of it is mine." Rich Li nodded hurriedly, "But nothing grows, so it has been abandoned."

Qingluo: "Well, you signed the material and sold that piece of land to me."

"Ah?" Rich Li raised his head in surprise.

The reputation of that piece of land in the local area is not very good, and there is no grass growing, so he simply gave up the piece of land.It never occurred to me that someone would actually buy it.

What do you buy it for?

Even as a cemetery, people still think that Feng Shui is not good!
"As for the price..." Qingluo tapped the table with her fingertips, and said slowly, "Nowadays, an ordinary paddy field is about nine taels per acre, less than ten taels, and dry land is only about two taels. As for the land outside Li Yuan... ..."

Wealthy Li was taken aback when he heard this, he didn't expect that the little county magistrate, who looked like a non-human being, was so familiar with land prices.

He didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and hurriedly said: "The price is up to the adults!"

"Okay, then I'm not going to be polite." Qing Luo said lightly, "It's calculated according to the price of the dry land, how about two taels of silver per mu? Let me tell you the truth, people think that I am a parent official who oppresses the people."

"Two taels per mu?!" Rich Li repeated in surprise.

"Mr. Li thinks it's missing?"

"Oh no no no!" Rich Man Li shook his head like a rattle, "I just think the price your lord gave is a bit high, but in fact, nothing grows on that piece of land..."

If it was someone else, he would be cheated if he cheated, but in front of him, his parents and officials want to buy his land, if he doesn't tell the truth, there will be no good fruit in the future!
"I don't need Mr. Li to worry about this. As long as you sign this, the land will be mine, and I can give you the money now."

"Okay, I'll sign it now!" Rich Li couldn't wait any longer.

In his opinion, that piece of land is rubbish and a burden. Now that someone is willing to buy it for two taels of silver, he is so happy!

Without hesitation, he signed his name on the title deed transfer document.

"Lin Si—" Qing Luo called out.

Lin Si, who looked like an old fox, walked in with a smile, took the bank note in his hand, and handed it to rich man Li, "I measured that piece of land myself, and it belongs to you. The total area is 160 mu, and the fraction is not counted. The total price is 330 taels of silver. Here are three bills of 100 taels, and this is 34 taels of silver. Please count. And sign this receipt.”

Rich man Li took the silver and put it in his arms, signed his name, and pressed his fingerprints, Le's mouth couldn't close his mouth: "Don't count, how can I not trust the county magistrate!"

At this time, Li Beibei said coldly: "I advise you to count, otherwise you won't know when you will be sold!"

Rich Li reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense!"

He hurriedly put on a smiling face again: "Don't blame the magistrate, the little girl is ignorant and offended the adults with her words, don't blame the adults..."

Qingluo slowly said: "One time is ignorance, two times it can be said to be brainless, three times it is vicious."

Li Beibei stood up: "what did you say?"

Qing Luo also stood up from the chair, walked slowly in front of her, stretched out her hand, and looked down for a while, as if admiring the pink nails.

Then she suddenly raised her hand and slapped Li Beibei across the face!
