Tian Huairen returned to the west wing with a dejected face, his eyes were disappointed and a little confused, and in his mind, the old man's expression of blame and disapproval was always swaying in front of his eyes.
He didn't understand what was wrong with letting his daughter be the head of the family. She was no longer a human being. Even if she married someone else in the future, she would still be his daughter. Besides, this daughter was so sensible and sensible, and everything she did was for their family. Why?
Can't do it?
Tian Minyan saw Tian Huairen's expression in her eyes, looked at Luo Shi and asked, "Dad, did my grandfather talk about you?"
Tian Huairen gave a wry smile, and did not want to say more about the old man's fault, so he said: "The old man does not agree with us buying that piece of wasteland, saying that no crops can grow."
Tian Minyan raised her eyebrows, maybe it wasn't that simple, but she didn't expose him and just asked: "What do you mean, dad?"
"Buy it, why don't you buy it?" Tian Huairen glared and said, "We have agreed with Brother Deng, and the government will send people to measure the land this afternoon. If we all pay for it, why don't we buy it?"
"But, Dad, what if it's like what grandpa said, and no crops can grow in the ground?"
She was not worried that nothing would grow on the land, but she wanted to see Tian Huairen's attitude, to see if he was as pedantic as the old man, and to see how open-minded he could be.
Tian Huairen laughed and said: "If it doesn't grow, just keep it. Once it's cultivated, it won't last five years in one year, and it won't last ten years in five years. Even if I can't see it anymore, there are still grandchildren, so they will be raised well."
"What are you talking about? Your son is still young, so you are thinking about your grandson." Luo Shi was picking up the soles of his shoes and couldn't help but get angry after hearing this.
Tian Huairen just looked at her and smiled innocently, not thinking that this was a problem at all, and said to Tian Minyan: "Nanny, don't worry, just buy this land. If it is really well maintained, I will give it to you in the future.
If you don't support it well as a dowry, we'll leave it to our grandson to fiddle with in the future."
Tian Minyan was moved after hearing this, and felt that her parents were wholeheartedly supporting her decision, so she smiled and said: "Mom, dad, don't worry, this piece of land will bring great blessings to our family."
.Next year, we can build a big, bright house on this land."
Tian Huairen and Luo Shi looked at each other and smiled, thinking that she was comforting them in turn, so they followed her words and said, "Okay, okay, we'll just wait to live in a big house."
In the afternoon, Deng Fugui came to measure the land with several three Yamen guards and masters. Yangmei Village seemed to explode. This Tianjia Sanlang really wanted to buy wasteland.
As a result, it was not only the people from Tian's third family who went to Houshan to survey the land, but also the good people in the village who came to watch, and it was packed with people.
"Has Tian Sanlang been kicked in the head by a donkey? What use can these wastelands be used for?"
"This money must have been wasted."
"It's not bad, it's just different."
"No, no, this land can't grow crops, it's too poor."
"Oh, look at those grasses, what are you doing with them? There are so many trees around."
"The leaves are almost half a foot thick."
People around her were talking a lot, but Tian Minyan just smiled calmly, imagining that the land was full of cotton, and the white cotton balls, she could almost see the glittering golden light, they were all gold.
There were also smart people making up their minds, among them, Landlord Chen was among them. Seeing the Tian family being busy and calmly ignoring the comments of the people around them, he couldn't help but think about it.
Landlord Chen even grabbed a handful of soil to see if it could be turned into a fertile field. What did the third family member of the Tian family think? Could it be that his head was really kicked by a donkey? Or was there something wrong with it?
It’s not surprising that Landlord Chen thinks so. After all, the Tian family has an uncle who is an official. Who knows if Tian Huaide got some news and told his family, so Tian Huairen bought this land?
Is there any silver or gold mine here?
Landlord Chen's eyelids twitched as he watched the government officials place the landmarks one by one. He couldn't help but feel anxious. Should he also buy it for several hundred acres?
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Tian Minyan standing there again, and I couldn't help but have a thought and walked over.
"Girl Yan, this land is very barren, what do you plan to plant?" Landlord Chen pretended to be casual and said, "Isn't this land expensive?"
"It's not expensive. The Lord of Xinzhi County heard that we were going to open up wasteland, so he decided to pay 600 yuan per acre, but it was a huge bargain. As for what to plant, we'll see later. Planting a crop of beans will also do." Tian Minyan said with a smile.
.
Six hundred coins? Landlord Chen frowned. It was so cheap. If it was really a gold or silver mine, it would definitely not be at this price. So what else could it be?
"Your uncle also knows that you bought this land? What did he say?" Landlord Chen thought for a while and asked.
Tian Minyan glanced sideways at him, not missing the calculating look in his eyes. Her eyes flashed and she said with a smile: "My uncle is in Henghe, how did he know that we were buying land? Even if he knew, there is nothing to say. We have three bedrooms.
The family is separated."
No matter what his intentions were, don't even think about plotting against their third wife.
"That's it." Landlord Chen chuckled and rolled his eyes: "Tian girl, how much land did you buy this time? I will also buy a piece of land next to you to be your neighbor."
"Landlord Chen, what we bought is one hundred acres. No, it's all built up. If you want to buy it, you can only buy it over at Aotou. There are many trees there, so it's not easy to open up wasteland." Tian Minyan smiled innocently, and she gave it to her
After looking at the terrain, the piece of land she wanted to buy was at the foot of the mountain. If it was higher up, it would be filled with trees, and it would be impossible to open up wasteland at all.
Landlord Chen thought it was a good thing, so he came to be her neighbor. The good things are good things, but she bought them all. If you want them, if you are willing to keep them for decades, you will probably get some harvest.
Landlord Chen smiled coquettishly, frowned, and turned around to go to the Yamen to see which piece of wasteland had not yet been opened. The third family of the Tian family could not take advantage of all this advantage.
Thinking of this, he stopped watching the excitement and left in a hurry.
The purchased land was quickly measured, and landmarks were set up one by one. After the registration master calculated it, one hundred and four acres and three-quarters of the land, according to the magistrate's instructions, only received a round number, sixty.
two.
Tian Minyan was so happy that she personally gave a few envelopes of money to the yamen guard and the master who measured the land. She also said many good things about the new magistrate of the county before sending them away.
And Deng Fugui also went to apply for the red deed. Because he dealt directly with the government, the red deed was quickly completed. When he entered the underworld, Deng Fugui sent it to the Tian family.
After paying the commission and sending Deng Fugui away, Tian Minyan read the land deed again and again, opened the box and took out the twenty-acre land deed, spread it out in front of her family and said with a smile: "Now we have bought one hundred and twenty acres.
With more than four acres of land, plus the six acres of land we were allocated before, our family has a total of 130 acres of land, and we can be considered a small landowner!"
