Farmer's Head: Busy farming

Chapter 73
Chapter 73

This week, the old lady actually went to the Chu Mansion to ask the matchmaker after the incident. How could she know that she was kicked out by the guards, and she got a bump on the nose, so she had to believe Xi'er's words.

Xi'er was also idle at home, so she thought about it, she still had to find ways to make money in such a situation at home.

Just relying on the grain and embroidered handkerchiefs in the fields, they will not be able to make a fortune in a lifetime.

After much deliberation, she ran to find Meng Hai.

"Father, how much money do you have at home?" Xi'er ran into the main room, where Meng Hai was smoking a dry cigarette, feeling ecstatically refreshed.

Hearing Xi'er's voice, Meng Hai opened his eyes, let out a foul breath, and said, "There are still 20 taels, what's the matter?"

Regarding Xi'er, Meng Hai didn't intend to hide it. To be honest, the money was earned by Xi'er.

Xi'er thought about it, inquired about the market these few days, and said, "Father, let's use the money to buy land."

"Buying land?" Meng Hai was stunned for a moment, it was not a trivial matter, and while talking, he put down the cigarette pouch in his hand.

Xi'er nodded her head as if smashing garlic, and then smiled, "Father, our 20 taels can't be used to make money, so we might as well use it to buy land."

"But, I'm almost overwhelmed with the few acres of land in our family. If I buy more, I won't be able to plant it all." Meng Hai thought for a while, and the three acres of land at home were exhausted enough.

"No, dad, we bought the land and we can rent it out, just collect the rent." Xi'er's idea is similar to that of modern people buying a house.

Meng Hai still didn't agree with it, so he said, "No, this fertile land is expensive, four or five taels of silver per mu! You can't buy a few acres."

Xi'er shook her head and said with a smile, "Father, let's not buy fertile land, let's buy the cheapest one."

"Ah? What are you talking about, don't buy fertile land? The cheapest land can't grow any good crops."

Only then did Xi'er happily say, "I have a way to make it fat, Dad, do you believe me?"

"A letter is a letter." Meng Hai hesitated for a while before saying.

"Then it's fine, trust me and listen to me, I won't harm us." Xi'er thought, although there is no chemical fertilizer in this world, it is manure!That's much better than chemical fertilizers, but the smell is more charming.

Meng Hai was still a little apprehensive and said, "Then, why don't you discuss it with your mother?"

Seeing Meng Hai's expression, Xi'er nodded hastily. My father looks like a tall man, but I have to discuss everything with my mother.

After listening to Xi'er's thoughts, Mrs. Liu agreed, although she didn't understand Xi'er's thoughts, "Just follow what Xi'er said, we have already earned back our capital this time, and these 20 taels are a lot in the first place. Well, if you lose, you lose."

When Xi'er heard her mother's words, she couldn't help admiring, she was really courageous.

With an idea, Meng Hai was busy again just after he was free, and went to the rental shop every day. In almost three days, he bought ten acres of Susukida in Baimiao Village with 20 taels of silver. It was so thin that it grew out of it. The crops are uneven, and half of them are rarely tenanted.

When the villagers knew about this, they all lamented that Meng Hai was such an idiot, who actually had a lot of money but not a lot of money, what's the use of buying so many Susukitas.

Xi'er was standing on the ridge of her own field, and the ten acres of land could not be seen at a glance!
At this moment, I really felt like a rich man.

She has been running into the field for the past two days. The field is indeed very thin. The soil is loose and dry, like sand. The food has been harvested on it, and there are still plant roots and sparse small withered grass. It looks pretty good. depression.

After looking at the ten acres of land one by one, I got an idea. ,

As soon as I entered the house, I heard Mrs. Zhang clamoring for land again.

"Father, mother, do you want to share some of this newly bought land with us?" Mrs. Zhang hugged the child with an attitude of perseverance.

Xi'er got angry when she heard that, this Zhang family was really dissatisfied, she earned the money before, but now she actually put her mind on the fields.

Really, if the tiger doesn't show its power, you think I'm a sick cat!
Xi'er pushed the door open with a "bang", and saw Meng Hai and Liu Shi sitting on the upper seats, and Zhang Shi standing there with the child in his arms.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" The expression on Xi'er's face became a little fierce, an expression she had never seen before. ,

Mrs. Zhang turned her head away, backed away with some fear, and then continued, "I'm not making trouble!"

"Let me tell you, this land deed is in my hands, so don't even think about it." Xi'er uttered harsh words regardless of whether her parents were still present.

For a long time, Xi'er thought that harmony is the most important thing in a family, and she didn't want to make too much trouble with Mrs. Zhang.

But in the past few days, because of the matter of buying the land, Mrs. Zhang has been making troubles at every turn, and even said that she would go back to her mother's house without dividing the land.

When the land deed was bought back, Meng Hai had already given it to Xi'er, and the Zhang family made such a fuss every day, and he was also very troubled.

However, neither I nor Mrs. Liu's personalities are competitive, and Mrs. Zhang is a junior, so it's hard to say anything.

When Mrs. Zhang heard Xi'er's words, she immediately became angry, "You, you are a girl, what are you doing with the land deed?"

"This field is all mine. Of course, I hold the land deed. I earned the 20 taels. If my parents gave it to me, it is mine. Why do you earn it?" Xi'er had never said such a thing before. Every word makes people feel a little flustered.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't hold back anymore, but she still said firmly, "I didn't ask for it for myself."

"You have already separated. When we separated, we gave you the best! What do these things have to do with you now?" Xi'er looked at Zhang with a funny face, as if she was looking at a giant. joke.

"I gave birth to the eldest grandson of your Meng family, you guys, that's what you did to me! I, I can't make it through! I can't make it through this day!" Mrs. Zhang said while throwing a splash, "Don't regret it! "

"I have nothing to regret. It's fine if you don't make it through. When you reconcile with elder brother, I will find a good marriage for elder brother. Really, my elder brother is a good worker, but I still worry about not being able to find a wife. It's really ridiculous." Xi'er finally sneered at Zhang's good use of methods this time.

Mrs. Zhang was dumbfounded, is this trick not working?When I said that before, they all answered me.

"You, you, Meng Xi'er, don't regret it, I want to get together!" Zhang finally cried, obviously feeling wronged.

"Okay, Li!" A man's voice sounded, and everyone was shocked.

Xi'er also immediately came back to her senses, turned her head and looked behind her, but saw Meng Changdong standing at the door with an angry face, looking at Zhang Shi in pain, and said, "I know you were wronged by marrying me, and my parents have always put You confess, for fear of offending you, the two younger sisters will give you first if they have good things, how long are you going to make trouble?"
