The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 104 I bought another land (2)
And Duanmuyu, who stayed alone in Tianyue Restaurant, was having a hard time. Ever since he entered Qingshi Town, he had been fantasizing about meeting Su Ling. Even though Su Ling was only ten years old, he couldn't wait any longer. The first time he came here, he came with the determination to express his heart to her.It's just that I still can't figure out how to say it so as not to scare her.

Of course, Su Ling, who was thinking in their hearts, would not know that she was busy buying land to grow sweet potatoes now. The previous sweet potatoes had already planted seedlings, and it would not take long for them to be planted, and before planting, the sweet potato seedlings had to be cut and sold. In the past, people in the village planted sweet potatoes so well that they all expressed their intention to plant them, and the family has already grown six fields, so these few acres of sweet potato seedlings must be cultivated well.

In the early morning of the next day, Su Ling arrived at the dental shop. She had greeted the dental shop a long time ago, and asked them to notify her if they had any good land, even though Su Ling's family already had thirty or forty acres of land. , is enough for their family to eat and drink, but she is not someone who will be satisfied with this. In her opinion, if you don’t do it, you don’t do it. If you do it, you must make it bigger. Continue to buy land.

"Second Brother Su and Ling'er are here." Zhu Yazi asked. Although he is mainly engaged in the business of selling servants, many people come to him for these things about buying and selling land. This time Su Ling specially asked him to help to watch out for any good land to sell.

For him, Su Ling is quite trustworthy. He introduced the servants in his family, and the Zhuangzi who lived between Huaxi Village and Qingshi Town was also handled by him, so let him introduce it now to see if it is okay. Buy a good grange.

"Well, I heard that there is news about that place, so let's come and have a look." Su Ling replied.

"Yes, there are two pieces of land not far from you. As soon as I got them, I sent someone to send a message to you." Zhu Yazi took out a folder from his sleeve, opened it and told Su Ling and Father Su.

There are two pieces of land, one in Huaxi Village, with a total of 25 mu, and the other is a bit far away, in Liuying, which is more than an hour away from Huaxi Village, with a total of [-] mu.

"It's all high-quality land, and the asking price per mu is about eight taels of silver." Zhu Yazi said, "These two families are in a hurry to use the money. If they don't sell the land, they have to borrow usury. If they are in a hurry, they have to cash... In my opinion, if it can be paid in one lump sum, the price can still be negotiated."

The spring plowing did not plow the wheat fields. It is obvious that the family has an urgent matter and needs money. It has not been sold for so long. Obviously the price is a bit high, and it takes so much money to buy such a large field at once. The land is also difficult for ordinary people.

"Let's go and have a look at the land first." Father Su said.

The land of Huaxi Village is in this village, so several people decided to visit Liuying's land before going back to Huaxi Village.

Father Su got into the carriage, and the whole group got into the carriage and rushed towards Liuying.

The 25 mu of land in Liuying is conveniently located by the stream, so it is convenient to irrigate it at ordinary times, while the [-] mu of land in Huaxi Village is not far from the Su family's old house.

Su's father went down to the field and picked up some soil to take a closer look. Both lands are good, and each has its advantages and disadvantages. The land in Liuying is easy to irrigate, while the land in Huaxi Village is close to each other, so it can be cultivated and maintained. convenient.

These two pieces of land cost eight taels of silver per mu, and the price is very attractive. It would be great if both pieces of land could be bought, but Su Ling's family bought a house this year, and the land has already purchased tens of mu. If she bought these two pieces of land all at once, she might not be able to afford it, not to mention that the fish pond was about to start raising fish and lotus, but the lotus seeds hadn't come back yet.The production of dried bamboo shoots is also about to start, and a sum of money is also needed.

"After passing this village, there will be no such shop." Zhu Yazi also told Su's father.Father of Su didn't know!

"Zhu Yazi, take someone to see the land? Hey, this is not the second brother Su. Are you buying land?" Several people were standing on the 25 mu of land in Huaxi Village talking, and one person came from the land on the other side of the village. Li walked over, and laughed haha ​​from a long distance away.

Both Zhu Yazi and Su's father hurriedly stopped the conversation, and greeted the visitor with a smile.

The person who came was none other than Wu Sangui, a well-known rambunctious person in the village. This person was loitering in the village all day long, but his father was the previous village head, so everyone didn't care about him for his father's sake. He said hello, and everyone agreed.

"Yes, I'm looking at the land!" Father Su replied, you can't just say nothing to other people's questions!Not to mention the same village!If you don't look up and look down, Father Su doesn't want to lose face too much.

"Second brother's life is better now. It's a pity to buy this farm one after another." Wu Sangui said that he still kept half of it, and what people hate the most is like this. your appetite.

"What's the pity?" Father Su asked back.

"Does Second Brother Su really not know or pretend to not know?" Wu Sangui said again.

Su's father was really confused about Wu Sangui's words, let alone Su's father, the people present didn't quite understand Wu Sangui's meaning.

"Second Brother Su, your life is easier now, but have you seen the current situation of the Su family's old house? It's a family that doesn't have a family, and it's noisy all day long, especially Aunt Su, who is so old. You still have to work in the fields every day, and the villagers don’t know what to say about you! Tell me, there are only three daughters in Brother Su’s family. It is impossible for the old man to follow him! And the only one of the brothers You are the one who is capable, and if you don’t help, who can help them?” Wu Sangui babbled for a long time before saying these words.

Su Ling didn't know what he meant by saying this, but this time there were a lot of people here, and when he said this, he would lose face to Su's father. Isn't this secretly saying that Su's father is an unfilial son?Intuitively, Su Ling realized that he hated this person very much.

"This, this..." Father Su realized that he no longer knew what to say.

There are also other people in the village whose families have been separated, and they have not found that there are as many cases as the old houses. Besides, their part has been separated a long time ago, and now it is nothing to take the old man into their part. Said that Mother Su would not agree, and even Grandpa Su would not agree. When their family was separated, they left the house cleanly. They live together.

Su Ling knew that Su's father was soft-hearted, and if Wu Sangui was allowed to continue talking, maybe he would agree to whatever Su's father said, so she quickly interrupted Wu Sangui's words, "Father, which piece of land are we going to choose?" Huh? Or buy two together?" Although it is a bit difficult to take out the money to buy two pieces of land at once, if Su's father wants to buy two together, Su Ling will find a way.
