Rebirth Space: Eighty Sturdy Little Daughter-in-law

Chapter 21

Xia Tian pointed at the place he was stepping on, "I think this place is pretty good, why don't you tell the secretary of the village branch, let's settle this place, how about it?"

When the family saw Xia Tian saying that the wind is the rain, they were startled, and all stared at Xia Tian's feet.

Xia Tian wandered around the house, then went out to look around the yard, the more he looked, the more he felt that this place was really nice.

Here, it looks a bit desolate now.

It is some distance away from the village at the foot of the mountain, and there are no neighbors around, just like a separate small village.

But it is not impossible to settle down here.

If they really want to settle down here, they will definitely not be able to live in this thatched house for the rest of their lives. They want to build a house. If they build a house at that time, they can dig a mountain out of it, and then the land will be big.

Moreover, after the mountain is really opened, fruit trees can be planted around the yard, poultry and so on can be raised in the yard, and there is a fish pond in front of it, which can be contracted by the family with the village, how wonderful.

More importantly, this place is far away from the big family of the Xia family, so there is no need to deal with them.

Immediately, Xia Tian decided to settle here.

That night, the whole family did not rest.

During the day, Zhou Yuehong and Xia Guoping picked some hawthorns at home. The whole family was busy, and they planned to make hawthorn cakes from the hawthorns, and planned to sell them in the next town next day.

The town next door went to the market every day, but it was a bit far away from them, more than ten miles away. If they wanted to go there to do business, they would have to get up and walk there before dawn. When they got there, it was just dawn.

But there is money to be made, and there is nothing to work hard.

To make haw jelly, sugar and lotus root starch are indispensable, so Xia Chunbao was sent to sell sugar and lotus root starch at the small shop in the village.

There is only one canteen in the village, which is run by Li Yingchun's family.

When Xia Chunbao arrived there, only Qin Fengxiu was guarding the shop.

Qin Fengxiu was knitting a sweater with her head down. When she heard footsteps, she thought that a guest was coming, so she immediately put down the sweater in her hand and prepared to greet the guest.

But when she saw that it was Xia Chunbao, her lips twitched. As for today's Ping'er matter, she still had a problem with the Xia family.

Her attitude was lukewarm, and she asked, "What do you want to buy?"

Xia Chunbao was not a very smart person, he couldn't see that Qin Fengxiu was unhappy, so he didn't say much, pointing to the white sugar and lotus root starch in the jar on the counter, he said, "Give me a catty of white sugar and a catty of lotus root starch. "

Qin Fengxiu frowned. If she remembered correctly, this Xia Chunbao also came to buy these two things last night, so he's here again today?

She felt strange, and was not angry anymore, so she deliberately smiled and asked, "Chunbao, why do you keep buying white sugar and lotus root powder in your family these two days? Are these things so delicious?"

"It's delicious, my whole family loves it." Xia Chunbao replied stiffly.

This was specifically explained by Xia Tian. Xia Tian knew that the Li family might ask, so he asked Xia Chunbao to answer like this, without saying a single word.

But Qin Fengxiu had already thought of it. Although Xia family only went to the town to buy something once, almost everyone in the village knew about it.

After all, like the Xia family, no one knew they could do business, and their family really did do business. It was a strange thing in the village, so it spread quickly.

However, what the villagers couldn't figure out even more was how to make that hawthorn cake in summer.

Qin Fengxiu looked at Xia Chunbao and smiled, deliberately pretending to be casual, and asked while weighing the white sugar, "I see that you are not eating it, do you need these two things to make that hawthorn cake?"

Xia Chunbao didn't look at Qin Fengxiu, but kept his eyes on Qin Fengxiu's scale, in case she buckled the scale, and muttered, "We just like to eat."

Although Chun Bao didn't say anything, Qin Fengxiu was sure that these two things were used to make hawthorn cake. Immediately, Qin Fengxiu narrowed his eyes slightly, and had a ghost idea in his heart.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Tian asked Xia Weibao, Xia Chunbao, and Xia Xiaoyu to go to the town to sell things, because there are not too many things today, about [-] catties, so let's go to this town to try first.

And she has other things to do. If she digs a cellar in this place, she must make sure that the place belongs to them, otherwise the digging may be in vain.

After daybreak, Xia Guoping and Xia Guoping packed up and took some things to the village branch secretary's house.

In fact, there are not many things, just a few catties of hawthorn cakes. Anyway, Xia Tian carried three catties of his own production in one fell swoop.

On the way, Xia Guoping had been looking at the three catties of hawthorn cake in Xia Tian's hand very distressedly, and his tone was full of resentment, "Xia Tian, ​​you said that you are a big spender, and it's still too late to go to the village branch secretary's house to talk about building a house." What are you carrying, and you are carrying this expensive hawthorn cake, this one can be sold for at least one yuan, so it would be nice to keep the money for sale."

Now Xia Tian finally understands why the third son of their family is so stingy, it turns out that he inherited their father's stingy temper.

Xia Tian smiled, and said in a low voice, "Dad, it's no surprise that you are asking for help."

Xia Guoping didn't take it seriously, "Who are you asking for? The land belongs to the village, and no one wants it. Anyone can ask for it. Can the village branch not approve it?"

What Xia Guoping said is true. Generally, people in the village build houses. As long as they have a fancy place, they won’t stop it unless they have a deep hatred. , and the secretary of the village branch will not stop it.

But Xia Tian thought that many things in this village were decided by the village branch secretary, and it would not be bad to have a good relationship with people.

She waved her hand and glanced at the hawthorn cake in her hand, "It's okay, it's not a very valuable thing."

Xia Guoping glanced at Xia Tian, ​​but he didn't agree with it in his heart, three catties of pastries are worth one yuan, isn't it worth money?
In the past, when a large family lived together, a dollar was enough for food for many days.

The house of the secretary of the village branch was at the far east end, and they walked for about ten minutes to arrive.

When they arrived at the gate, the courtyard door of the village branch's house was wide open. The village branch secretary was grinding a hoe in the yard, and his wife, Aunt Zhong Xiu, was sweeping the yard.

Hearing the noise at the door, the couple raised their heads immediately, seeing that it was the father and daughter in Xia Tian, ​​both husband and wife were stunned for a moment, then Zhong Xiu immediately put down the broom in his hand, walked to the door, and greeted them, "Ah, Guoping and his daughter are here, but they are rare visitors, why are you willing to come to my house today?"

Xia Tian called out to Auntie, then walked up to the village party secretary, and handed over what he had brought, "Uncle, this wasn't when we separated yesterday, did I bother you, there is nothing to thank, so I just took it Some pastries made by myself, I will give you a taste."

When he heard that it was hawthorn cake, the village party secretary's eyes lit up. He took it and said with a smile, "This is the hawthorn cake you made. I heard that it is not cheap in the town."

"Yes, that's the hawthorn cake." Xia Tian didn't answer whether it was expensive or not, and said with a smile, "You have a taste."

The village secretary nodded, "Okay, okay, you did it yourself, then I'm not welcome."

When it was over, he called his daughter-in-law to come and taste it together.
