The ugly princess

Chapter 157 The air is filled with the smell of meat

"You may have heard that after turning over the wasteland of your house, there are 25 acres of fertile land behind. In the past, the village would rent these fertile land to several families in other villages.

But to get to the fertile land, you have to pass through your family’s wasteland. If your family fences off the entrance to the wasteland, then these fertile fields cannot be rented out. "Li Zheng then said with a sad face.

The location of Gu Qingyu's house is the northernmost end of Muyun Village, and the location of the 20 mu of wasteland her family bought is also quite special. In front of the wasteland is Gu Qingyu's home, and there are cliffs on the left and right sides.

The terrain of Gu Qingyu's house is relatively high, and the whole piece of wasteland behind it tends to go downhill, gradually extending to a piece of fertile land with relatively low terrain. This fertile land is the 25 mu of fertile land that Li Zheng mentioned.

These 25 acres of fertile land are surrounded by hillsides and high mountains, a bit far from Muyun Village, and before Gu Qingyu bought the wasteland, the roads leading to those fertile fields were overgrown with weeds.

So even if the fertile land is good, no one in the village is willing to buy it, because it is too difficult to transport the grown vegetables outside, and the shipping costs will cost a lot of money.

Therefore, this part of good land has always been leased to poorer people in other villages. Most of them rent a few mu of land each, and only grow some food for their own needs.

"Grandpa Lizheng, the people who rented these fertile fields before, how long until the lease expires?"

Gu Qingyu's eyes lit up, how could she have forgotten that there is still such a treasure land of geomantic omen, if she takes it down, it will be so cool!

This fertile land is remote, and the wasteland is the only way to this fertile land.

At that time, as long as she cuts off the way into the wasteland, this land will be just right for planting vegetable seeds obtained from the space, and she won't be afraid of being tricked by those wicked people.

"The lease period is at the end of this month, and the lease period will be up in five days. Those who rented this 25 acres of fertile land before heard that your house will fence the entrance to the wasteland, and they don't plan to rent it.

It is precisely because the lease term is coming up that I am in such a hurry. "Li Zheng sighed deeply.

"Grandpa Lizheng, what is the usual annual rent for your 25 acres of fertile land?" Gu Qingyu asked with wide round eyes.

"Because no one wants the land, the rent for one mu of land is only [-] Wen a year." Li Zheng said.

"Father, why don't we rent this 25 acres of fertile land? Our wasteland is so large, and we usually have to find helpers to help take care of it. When we need it, we can find a few more people to help. How about we grow some vegetables?
Anyway, in the wasteland, you have also built a road, and then we can use a horse-drawn cart to transport vegetables out, no trouble? "

Gu Qingyu calculated 25 mu of fertile land a year, and only used more than one or two taels of silver, which is really too cheap.

Originally, Gu Qingyu wanted to buy these fertile fields, because the terrain is remote, so it shouldn't be very expensive to buy them?
But after thinking about it, I think it's better to bear it now. Her family is too dazzling in the village recently, and it's not a good thing to be too popular for a while?
"With so many lands, one tael a year is really not expensive."

"Yu'er, you have a good idea. Since your grandpa is in such a difficult situation, let's rent it out. Daddy will take care of these fields."

As soon as Gu Qingmu heard about Liangtian, his heart itched and he was very excited.

"It's really great." Li Zheng slapped his thigh violently, and the original sadness on his face was instantly replaced by joy.

The next day, the clearing in the wasteland can basically be sorted out, so Gu Qingyu plans to reward everyone with a delicious meal tonight.

Early in the morning, Gu Qingyu went to the town alone to buy vegetables, and bought two chickens, two fish heads, a few catties of pork ribs, a few catties of pork belly, a few catties of beef, some fruits and vegetables, and four jars of wine.

Gu Qingyu wandered around the market for a long time, and bought some scattered things. It was not until noon that Gu Qingyu went home after finishing her lunch.

In less than half an hour, Gu Qingyu arrived home.

In the afternoon, Aunt Huang and Da Ni were eating melon seeds and gossiping at Gu Qingyu's house. Because they were going to treat guests to dinner today, work on olives and vegetables had long been suspended, and the entire kitchen was vacated.

"Wow, Yu'er, there are so many meat dishes, shouldn't they be all the dishes for tonight?"

When Aunt Huang saw Gu Qingyu brought back so many things, she was so shocked that she couldn't move her eyes away. Why did Yu'er buy so much meat? She didn't have so much meat to entertain guests on her wedding day.

"Yes, Aunt Huang, Da Ni and Zi Yan, you will help me wash some vegetables later, and I will handle the other materials. After you are done, you can go back to the house and drink tea!"

Gu Qingyu doesn't like too many people in the kitchen, it will get in the way, so she can handle two tables of dishes today.

Next, Gu Qingyu took the things into the kitchen and started to process the materials. There are quite a lot of ingredients that need to be used tonight.

Two hours later, Gu Qingyu's house gradually became lively, and the big men who worked in the wasteland had already returned from work.

"Well, I almost swallowed my tongue when I smelled it." As soon as Huzi entered the yard, he inhaled deeply the smell of meat that permeated the air, and couldn't help being the first to speak out.

"Huzi, don't tell me, my Yu'er's craftsmanship is really good."

Seeing that the men had returned, Mrs. Han walked out of the house. Since leaving the old Gu's house, her personality has become much more cheerful now.

"Third daughter-in-law, I really agree with what you said. These days we eat lunch cooked by girl Yu, and when we go home, we can't eat the food cooked by those women at home. It's like eating grass."

Uncle Xu also cheerfully agreed.

"Hahaha, old Xu, you can't let your mother-in-law hear your words, or you will be miserable." Li Zheng teased with a smile.

"You are the old man here, how would she know if you don't tell me?" Old Uncle Xu said with a smile.

"Everyone, my house is not big enough, so I can only wrong you to eat in the yard. You men should sit at the table on the right."

When Mrs. Han heard that everyone was testing her daughter's skills, she almost grinned to her ears, and hurriedly called everyone to sit down.

There are two Eight Immortals tables in the yard, which were built by Gu Qingmu a few days ago. The table on the left is for women like Gu Qingyu, including several children, and the table on the right is for some big men.

"Third daughter-in-law, I don't like to hear your words. We are all big and rough guys. It's late in the evening and the yard is not hot at all. How can we be wronged?" Li Zheng pretended to be angry.

"Okay, okay, Uncle Lizheng, this is all my fault, everyone, please sit down, I'll pour you some tea right now, and I'll serve you food right away."

Seeing Lizheng's angry look, Han didn't say any more polite words, and said with a smile.

"Yu Niang, go and get busy, I'll greet you here." Gu Qingmu was afraid that Mrs. Han would be too busy inside and out, so she looked at Mrs. Han with a smile and said.
