Chapter 132 Please Midwife
Taking the bank note and letter of recommendation from Wu Yue, Xu Xiaomi went directly to the back hall of the Qinglong town guard's mansion.

Mrs. Liu Zhenshou entertained her very warmly, and the woman who asked Xu Xiaomi to go with her in the Evergreen Pharmacy last time was also there.

When Liu Zhenshou came back, Mrs. Liu hurriedly introduced to her husband how she and Xu Xiaomi met, during which Xu Xiaomi kept a smile on her face.

After Mrs. Liu's introduction, Xu Xiaomi bowed seriously to Liu Zhenshou and said, "Master Liu, this is a letter from my cousin!"

Liu Zhenshou took the letter from Xu Xiaomi, opened it, and said enthusiastically, "Miss Xu, this way please! Let's discuss in the study!"

After Liu Zhenshou finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation, Xu Xiaomi followed him to a small room, he walked to the chair in front of the desk and sat down, pointed to a chair in front of the desk, and asked Xu Xiaomi to sit down .

After Xu Xiaomi sat down, Liu Zhenshou smiled and asked, "Miss Xu, how much land do you want to buy?"

Xu Xiaomi looked at this middle-aged man, who looked like a scholar, with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a goatee, and a square scarf on his head.About forty years old.

Xu Xiaomi thought to himself: I don't know what Wu Yue wrote in the letter?Why did Lord Liu ask her how much land she wanted to buy as soon as she came?Could it be that he thought Wu Yue wanted to buy it?
Seeing that Xu Xiaomi just looked at him but didn't speak, he thought he was frightening him, so he smiled and said, "Miss Xu, please tell me how much land you need to buy?"

Xu Xiaomi thought for so long, and finally thought of how to ask: "Master Liu, please help the little girl to see how many public lands there are in Xujia Village?"

Liu Zhenshou didn't expect that Xu Xiaomi just asked about the public land in Xujia Village. He really thought that Wu Yue wanted to buy it, but Xu Xiaomi was just running errands?
He took out the land register and read it carefully.When he turned to Xujia Village, he asked Xu Xiaomi to come over and watch it together.

"Miss Xu, look! This is the public land of Xujia Village. There are still two hundred acres of land here, but they are all in the river embankment, and they are prone to flooding every year.

look……"

Liu Zhenshou said cautiously.

"It's okay! Just tell me how much money you want per mu?"

Xu Xiaomi said straightforwardly.

In fact, there are now two ditches in the embankment to divide the river water into three parts. There is no chance for the river water to flood again, but the downstream still needs the attention of the court.

Liu Zhenshou must not know the changes now!He felt that he treated Xu Xiaomi with sincerity, but he didn't expect Xu Xiaomi to ask the price so readily. He really is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!
He didn't think much about it anymore, anyway, he told her the truth, and now he has a clear conscience, so she can buy it if she wants it!

So, Liu Zhenshou looked at Xu Xiaomi and said, "The fields here are all fertile fields, and the purchase price is two taels of silver per mu. How much does Miss Xu want to buy?"

When Xu Xiaomi heard it, the land was actually not expensive!Secretly happy in my heart, I now have more than 1000 taels, and I can buy a lot!

Xu Xiaomi looked at Liu Zhenshou with a smile, and said, "I want two hundred acres! Mr. Liu, please help me look around Qinglong Town. After the snowstorm, so many people died, how much land is there? "

Liu Zhenshou didn't expect that Xu Xiaomi would buy land on the edge of the town, so he took out another book to look through.

Finally, he closed the registration book, looked at Xu Xiaomi and said, "Miss Xu, the people in the Wulipo area of ​​Qinglong Town have all been massacred by refugees. There is a large piece of land there, I don't know..."

When Xu Xiaomi heard him mention Wulipo, she remembered the first time she went to the market and asked Uncle Pork for pig intestines. She thought that Uncle Pork was so nice, but he disappeared later. I don’t know if he escaped that disaster. ?
She wondered where she might wait for him to come back, so she interrupted Liu Zhenshou before he could finish speaking.

"Master Liu, I'll buy it, how many do you see?"

"Ms. Xu's fields are not good fields, look..."

Liu Zhenshou still wanted to persuade her, but heard her say again: "Master Liu, you just need to tell me how much silver is per mu, thank you!"

Seeing her insistence, Liu Zhenshou could only say: "Well! These fields are not easy to irrigate in summer, and the land is relatively barren. I will count two taels of silver for you. Buy an acre of land and get an acre of land for free!"

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi said very gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Liu! Then please give me the land deed of Wulipo!
Also, can you open it here in Xujia Village?Please help me open it together!When I go back, I will start to grow food! "

Seeing that she was so impatient, Liu Zhenshou said, "Miss Xu, don't you need to think about buying it again?"

Xu Xiaomi heard this, and thought: You are really a good official!However, the situation no longer allowed her to think so much!

This kind of grain can only be planted once a year, and the harvest is small. She has to let herself have a lot of grain in three years. Three years can be long or short.

She has to hurry up to have food!There are still so many people in the family who have to eat, and there are so many things to do!Maybe, there will not be enough manpower in the future!
However, this person can be found at a later time, and it must be planted now. If there are no seedlings this season, what should be planted in the field?

Now I have to go back and ask my second uncle, if he runs a caravan outside, has he ever seen such a high-yield crop as corn.If there is, there is still time to plant corn.

It was already afternoon when Xu Xiaomi returned to Xujia Village with two land deeds.

Xu Yaowu called more than a dozen people to help make the road, eight wooden oxen were busy carrying lime and river sand, stones were pulled from the river by cart, and the road leading to the house at the end of the village was full of excitement.

Xu Xiaomi greeted everyone and went home directly to put down the title deed.I went to the place where five bandits panned for gold.

Xu Xiaomi traveled all five places, and the gold that five people gave her was as big as a big finger.

Xu Xiaomi happily returned home with the gold, humming the pop songs from her previous life, while fiddling with the cloth recently sent by Zeng Qiu.

She chose a piece of dark blue cloth, and planned to make two clothes for each of the five people.

She memorized the measurements and started cutting, and by the time she finished cutting five outfits, it was already dark!

Xu Xiaomi had breakfast the next day. Seeing that her mother and aunts were free, she took out the fabrics that had been cut yesterday and asked her mother and aunts to help sew the fabrics of the five sets of clothes.

The second uncle and the fourth aunt also sewed together with their big bellies.The second aunt frowned and said softly to Zhou Yuqing while sewing, "Oh! My stomach hurts so much! I think it's about to give birth!"

When Zhou Yuqing heard it, she hurriedly looked at her stomach, which was quite optimistic about Lao Gao, and it had already dropped a little.Busily shouted to Xu Xiaomi, who was still busy going in and out: "Girl, your second aunt may be about to give birth, go to Lijiawan and ask Aunt Li to deliver the midwife."

When Xu Xiaomi heard it, oh!She is not familiar with Lijiawan!What should I do?But the thing is that I didn't arrange it well, so I can only look for it now!
Butterfly Xiaoxiang has been flying around her all morning, when Xu Xiaomi goes outside, it follows her outside!
Xu Xiaomi walked alone and said to it, "Xiaoxiang, do you know where Lijiawan is?"

Xiao Xiang flew to her ear and whispered softly, "Master, I will take you there!"

Xu Xiaomi happily followed Xiaoxiang, and they walked down the river.

When they walked out of the boundary of Xujia Village, the wheat fields downstream were filled with mud, and the wheat stalks appeared even shorter in the fields.

Xu Xiaomi looked at it and thought: This is probably the rainwater that accumulated in the field when it rained heavily a few days ago?

Didn't expect it to be so serious?I almost drowned the wheat, alas!It seems that when you have money, you have to clean up the ditches on both sides of the Daqing River!
Otherwise, maybe when God gets angry, the two sides of the Daqing River will be turned into a vast ocean!
Xu Xiaomi thought in this way, but her feet were deep and shallow, and she followed Xiaoxiang.But the road ahead is getting harder and harder.

Xu Xiaomi stepped on it, and the mud on the road lost his ankle. When he tried to lift his foot up again, it took a lot of effort.

If he went any further, his feet would be lost in the mud, and Xu Xiaomi was sweating profusely.

"Xiaoxiang! How do we go here? How far is it? Wait a minute, the midwife is invited, how does the old man walk this way?"

Xiaoxiang had already flown to the front, but when she heard Xu Xiaomi yelling loudly from behind, she folded back and flew around her twice, saying, "Master! What should you do! Xiaoxiang listens to the master's arrangement!"

Xu Xiaomi thought to herself: How about I deliver the baby to my aunt myself!But, in that case, would mother agree?This is a matter of life and death!How can she let her do it with a child?
well!Forget it!It's okay to walk by yourself, it depends on how Aunt Li will get to her home!

Xu Xiaomi lifted her body and walked through the muddy road, but when she walked further down, in the wheat field, almost only wheat accumulations could be seen. Inch-high ears of wheat were on top of the mud.

When Xu Xiaomi saw the big movies like this, his heart ached so badly that he could hardly breathe. There was no harvest, so what did these people eat this year?How does this make the people here live?
The more anxious Xu Xiaomi was, the faster he walked!After walking through the field ridge, they came to a collapsed earthen house.How many people did you see, and what were you looking for in the ruins?
Xu Xiaomi saw an aunt in her forties and asked, "Auntie, where does Aunt Li, who can deliver babies, live?"

The aunt saw that Xu Xiaomi was wearing fine cotton clothes. People who can afford this kind of clothes these days should generally have a good family background.So, he looked at her with those greedy eyes.

Seeing that she was alone again, she said, "Little girl, are you going to ask Mrs. Li to deliver someone in your family?"

Xu Xiaomi heard her say in her heart: This is a child from a wealthy family and good-looking. If I trick her to Mrs. Wang today, she might be able to buy ten taels of silver!
