Traveling through the mountains and fields to be leisurely

Chapter 27

"Er Zhuang, you also said that the elder said he wants good land. Do you think the semi-desolate dry land you bought for them will be successful? Don't look back and they won't match again."

After being told by Lan Lingxue, Lizheng really got the point, what if the old man doesn't agree with him?

"Grandpa Li, I know what you are always worried about. You can always put your heart in your stomach. The old man just wants dry land, not paddy fields. He wants to grow vegetables, and the old man will definitely find that land suitable. He really likes my father's level of farming, so he naturally believes my father's vision of land."

"That's good, that's good. When you said it just now, I was really worried."

"Then just wait for a while, my father and I will go up, mother, you and Xiao Hoe will wait here with Grandpa Li."

"You little girl, go quickly. I don't need to accompany you. Hurry up, or the yamen will be out of the yamen soon."

Looking at the little figure of Lan Lingxue following her father into the restaurant, Li could not help but bend the corners of her mouth slightly, this little clever ghost.

"Grandpa Li, we are back."

After a while, Li Zheng saw Lan Erzhuang and his father coming out of the restaurant.
"Grandpa Li, what a coincidence. My father and I went in to find that acquaintance. The acquaintance said that we came just in time. The old man was having dinner with someone in a restaurant. No, it didn't take much effort to come."

Lan Lingxue whispered to her about the scene of entering the restaurant just now, and at the same time motioned her father to take out the money. Lan Erzhuang looked around carefully, seeing that no one was paying attention, she stretched out her hand and took out the money from her pocket. A small dark blue cloth bag was carefully handed over to Li Zheng’s hand. After all, it was not small money. Lan Erzhuang’s hand holding the money was trembling. The money was prepared at home with his daughter. The cloth is torn off a corner of a piece of burden skin at home. My daughter said that I can’t take it away anyway. It’s better to use it. This bag of money is really useful, but it took a little effort to hide it from my wife. help.

"Uncle Li, I will trouble you for the rest. There are 140 taels of silver in it, 140 taels of silver for buying land, and [-] taels of silver for formalities. I know that it costs money to go to the yamen to go through the formalities."

Lan Erzhuang leaned in front of him and whispered,
"You silly boy, it's not bad to spend money for the formalities, but you bought so much land, as the Lizheng of a village, can't I give you some relief? If you need to add money, I won't tell you in advance You said, you take the five taels of silver back, and I happen to be worried about you. There is nothing in this house to live on. With these five taels of silver, you can buy what your family needs in this town, no matter what. Get over this winter, and there are children."

Lizheng opened the small bundle with Lan Erzhuang's hand, avoided people, took out five taels of silver from it, and stuffed it into Lan Erzhuang's hand. Only Lan Erzhuang knew how heavy the silver was. What is in the hand is the human heart!

Looking at the figure that was going farther and farther away, Lan Erzhuang's eyes became more and more moist, and the distant figure became more and more blurred.
"Second brother, let's go."

Lin Qiutang tugged at Lan Erzhuang's sleeve, Lan Erzhuang came back to his senses, looked down at the silver in his hand,
"How can we repay this?"

Both of them knew that this money could not be returned, and five taels of silver was not a small amount. If you save it, it will be enough for a poor family to spend for a year.
"There are still many good people."

Lin Qiutang was really moved. Usually, he was not too close to Uncle Li Zheng, but the folks in the village walked around a little. Who would have thought that Li Zheng would help his family so much when they were in trouble.
"Qiutang, if our family lives a better life in the future, we must never forget old Uncle Li."

"How can I forget, this is my benefactor."

Thinking of the two old people in my family, it would be a lie to say that they are not sad. The close relatives are not as close as outsiders.

"Father, mother, the time for us to repay Grandpa Li is coming later. The most important thing now is to get the things we need as soon as possible. Sadness and so on, let's experience it slowly in the future."

After being teased by the daughter, Lan Erzhuang and his wife blushed a little. They are not as good as children. They can't tell the difference.

"Okay, let's buy it quickly, don't wait for it to be dark, and the shops are closed, then it will be miserable."

He cooperated with his daughter very much and made a grimace. The family went on the road happily. The purchase took almost two hours. When they walked back, the sky had already begun to darken. Bao Xiaobao, the path in this village is still uneven, very difficult to walk, Lan Lingxue almost fell several times, Lin Qiutang almost sprained his foot, but the little hoe was just like his father, walking steadily .

"Father, when I have money, I will definitely repair this road first. It's not a narrow road, and it can pass a bullock cart. Why do you just let it be full of potholes and no one cares about it?"

Lan Lingxue complained in a low voice, because the road was difficult to walk and she walked unsteadily, her father could only take some things from her hands. Although her father had some strength, she couldn't hold back the many things, Lan Lingxue even I was so tired for my father, but with my mother around, Lan Lingxue didn't dare to hide in the space,

"Let's talk about it when you have money. Now that you think about it, it's useless and useless. It's more about earning money."

Although Lan Erzhuang was carrying a lot of things on his shoulders, he still had the strength to answer the words.

"Daddy, you have become a money fan now too, hehe..."

Thinking of how her father said she was a money fanatic, Lan Lingxue started laughing,

"What's wrong with being a money fan? It's better than being hungry. Whoever can eat is still hungry."

Hey, Dad's transformation was successful.

"You two still have the strength to chat. It seems that you are not tired. My son and I are almost unable to walk."

Lin Qiutang really couldn't walk, his legs were trembling. He had been walking around the town for almost two hours, and walking so far with his things was really a test of physical strength.

"It's all entered the entrance of the village, and there are no other people. You and your son put your things here. Wait for us for a while, and Xiaolan and I will send the things back, and then come back to pick up your mother."

"Okay, there are only a few steps left, let's go quickly, so as to save the two of you from tossing back and forth."

"Son, can you still hold on?"

Lan Erzhuang was still a little worried about his son, but he really couldn't free his hands.

"I can do it, Dad, I'm a man."

Although he was exhausted and out of breath, Little Hoe still gritted his teeth and persisted. Lan Erzhuang was very satisfied with his son's energy, a boy must look like a boy, and his own son is not bad.

When I returned to the warehouse, it was completely dark. Thanks to having thought of this situation a long time ago, Lan Lingxue spread out a large black cloth that she bought in advance in the middle of the ground, and then put the bought things one by one. Put it on a black cloth, so as not to get dirty, anyway, these are new things,
"It can be regarded as home."

The little hoe wiped the sweat from his hair, and sat down on the edge of the big black cloth,
"Get up, it's cold on the ground."

Lan Lingxue picked up the little hoe from the cloth, found a bag filled with cotton, and asked him to sit on it. Seeing that the little guy was exhausted, Lan Lingxue also felt a little distressed. After all, it was a child, so she used her cuff to help her younger brother Wiped the sweat from his brow.

"Father, let's pack it up quickly, as long as we have a place to sleep tonight, we'll do the rest tomorrow."

"It will be fine soon, girl, you can also rest, and it will be fine for me and your mother."

Lan Erzhuang took the water basin and went to fetch water from the river. Lan Lingxue secretly dragged him to the back of the house and poured some space water into it. Relief from fatigue is not a waste, Lin Qiutang took out a broom, cleaned the floor of the house carefully, then piled the things to one corner, and laid a newly bought bed on the black cloth spread in the room. Speaking of this mattress, Lin Qiutang really felt sorry for it, it was much more expensive than making it by myself, but my daughter said that she would be busy late tonight and had no time to make bedding, so she bought a bed for urgent use, which really made her talk Oh, it's really hard to work in this big black sky,

"Come on, get up and wash your hands and faces, we will rest today."

Lan Erzhuang brought water into the house, cleaned up his daughter and daughter first, and then cleaned himself with his wife. The family of four squeezed together on a mattress, covered with cotton cloth for quilts, and fell into a deep sleep. The first night in the new house, accompanied by the sound of wind and insects outside the window, has a different tranquility and sweetness.

Although I was tired all day yesterday, Lan Lingxue got up early the next day. Looking at her family who slept soundly, Lan Lingxue was in pain and sweetness. For this family, even It was worth it to be a little bit tired, and thinking that she would no longer have to live in the same courtyard with that big family, Lan Lingxue's heart became a lot brighter, she gently lifted the cotton cloth covering her body, and Before I put on my shoes, I heard the sound of cloth rubbing against each other. Turning around, I saw my father sitting up too.
"Shh..."

Lan Lingxue put her index finger on her lips, and made a small gesture to her father, who nodded with a smile, and the two of them put on their shoes lightly, walked to the corner, and picked out from the pile of things. He took off his coat, put it on his body, and quietly walked out of the house,

"Little basket, get your things ready tomorrow, and dad can just get up by himself, and you can sleep a little longer, it's finally separated, and you don't have to get up early in the future, children can't bear it, their bodies can't stand it. "

Hearing these heart-warming words, Lan Lingxue's hands buttoned up her clothes became joyful.

"Father, I know you love me, but you really can't prepare this dish in advance. If it is left out for a long time, the dish will not be fresh. The restaurant wants the best vegetables, so it won't work if you always feel sorry for me. hehe……"

After fastening the buttons of her clothes, Lan Lingxue walked to her father's side, and shook her father's arm coquettishly,
"It will be hard for our family to wear a girl."

"I am your daughter and a member of this family. If you and mother can work hard, of course I can too. Father, the hard work is only temporary, and the better days will come later."
