Mrs. Zhang behaved fiercely, and the old women were really frightened when she made a sound.
"Who wants to rely on your family... Mrs. Zhang, please stop slandering others!"
"Why are you blocking my door if you don't rely on me? Damn, who can you hide from me with your little plan?"
"How could we have calculated it? Isn't it true that you picked the fruit secretly? Since you picked it, you have to pay!"
"It's just that you, the third child, are just trying to raise people. Before you can benefit your neighbors, you take advantage of the villagers. I'm afraid you will be a corrupt official when you become an official in the future!"
There are many people in this world who don't like others' kindness, and Mrs. Zhao is one of them.
She was already jealous of the Shen family. Why was the old Shen family so lucky? His son passed the examination and had a bright future. His family also got rich like shit. Now that she had the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, how could she let it go? .
Mrs. Zhao caught Mrs. Zhang's weakness and slandered Shen Yanqing with every word. Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she almost pushed her forward and tried to scratch her.
"I asked you to act blindly. You are so heartbroken just to get money. Even my third child dares to make up nonsense. I won't tear your mouth apart!"
Mrs. Zhang fiercely pulled out a handful of Mrs. Zhao's hair, which made her scream in pain.
"If you didn't do it, why would you be afraid that I would say, oh, it hurts me to death!"
Mrs. Zhang was furious. Shen Yanqing was her enemy. Anyone who touched her would die. Mrs. Zhao was pressed down and beaten, unable to fight back.
Zhao Xiuxiu and the others have been stunned for a long time. They just want money and don't want to die.
Although Jiang Miao was angry, she was also afraid of causing trouble, so she quickly stepped forward and pulled the two away. Mrs. Zhang couldn't hold back her hand and almost hit her in the face. Fortunately, she saw someone and stopped her in time.
"Miaoya, get out of the way, I'm going to beat this vicious old woman to death today!"
Mrs. Zhang is so angry now, how dare Jiang Miao let go.
"Mom, please calm down, you won't do anything wrong with them."
A group of them came prepared, but essentially they wanted to get money, and they were just being mean-mouthed to slander Shen Yanqing, just for the pleasure of the moment.
But Jiang Miao knew the harm of spreading rumors, which could really ruin a person's reputation. Shen Yanqing was at a critical time for the scientific examination. The Great Yan Dynasty valued the conduct of students very seriously, so his reputation could not be ruined at all. accident.
And although there is no owner of the fruits on the mountain, the entire mountain is owned by Qingquan Village. If the villagers insist on asking for money, Jiang Miao has no reason not to give it. There is no need for her to ruin her future for a small amount of money.
"I will give this money..."
As soon as she said this, Zhao Xiuxiu's face was filled with pride, and the women around her were even more happy.
"It's just that I want to talk to the village chief!"
Jiang Miao is not stupid. She is willing to give money because she wants to completely solve the problem, not just give it out casually when her brain gets hot.
Zhao Xiuxiu immediately agreed, "Okay, talking to my father about this matter will have the same result." Jiang Miao couldn't run away anyway.
"You guys go back first, we will go back to the village later." After Jiang Miao said this, she took Mrs. Zhang back to the house and closed the door. Everyone outside the door looked at each other. Mrs. Zhao covered her bald hair and asked Zhao Xiuxiu.
"Xiuxiu, what should we do next, should we go back or wait here? What if their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lied to us..."
Others were also worried about this problem and looked at her one after another. Zhao Xiuxiu's eyes were contemptuous.
"The Shen family is here. We can't run away for a while. Let's go back first and wait for them to send money."
"okay!"
In the main room, Mrs. Zhang was sitting on a chair and sulking. Jiang Miao tugged on her sleeves to please her, "Mom, listen to me."
"I won't listen. Are you stupid? If they ask for money, just give it to them. How can they have the nerve to come and ask for the money we earn from the fruits we have worked so hard to pick and sell for food?"
The more Mrs. Zhang thought about it, the angrier she became. If Jiang Miao didn't stop her, she would have to beat out all those old ladies.
"After all, this is related to my husband's reputation. If we don't give money and let them arrange it, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Those bitches know how to pick on the weak!" Mrs. Zhang also knew this, but she just couldn't let go of the bad breath in her chest.
"Then let's just give the money. No one has ever sold wild fruits before. How do you calculate the price? I won't give it to them if they keep asking for it."
Mrs. Zhang's tone gradually compromised, and Jiang Miao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"I don't plan to pay for the fruit, mother, I want to buy that mountain!"
She said it lightly, but it frightened Mrs. Zhang.
"What? Buy a mountain! You can't eat or drink anything. You have too much money to burn to buy that thing."
"If you buy it, you can plant fruit trees and flowers. When the pastry shop gets bigger in the future, it will definitely need a lot of fruits. For future convenience, I think it is more cost-effective to buy the hilltop."
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Jiang Miao continued.
"Moreover, Mom, now that we are rich, we should buy more property. Buying a house and land is the best way to preserve value..."
"Well, what you said makes sense, but this mountain is shared by the village. We usually go up there to cut firewood and dig wild vegetables. Will the village chief sell it to us?"
The corners of Jiang Miao's lips curled up slightly, she would sell it if she gave him more money.
…
Zhao Dayong hesitated after hearing this, "One hundred taels of silver buys half a mountain. My third daughter-in-law, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
Wild fruits are only worth a few dollars, so there is no need to buy mountains.
"No, I only buy the half of the mountain with the fruit trees. The other half still belongs to the village. The villagers can continue to go up there to cut firewood, and it will not affect their daily lives."
"This..." Zhao Dayong was still hesitant, but the villagers watching beside him could no longer sit still.
"Village chief, just promise the third daughter-in-law." One hundred taels of silver, each of their families can get two taels, who wouldn't be moved after hearing this.
"It's just the village chief. It's only half a mountain. It won't affect anything. Just sell it to Miao Ya!"
A group of people shouted to persuade him. Zhao Dayong gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then sell it!"
The two reached a deal, and the land deed still had to go to the county government to sign a transfer agreement. The villagers couldn't wait to get the money, so they rushed the two to the town to sign the agreement. When everything was settled, Jiang Miao looked at the land deed in her hands in trance.
, she had a second asset in ancient times.
Jiang Miao smiled and put the land deed in a sachet to keep close to her body. Zhao Xiuxiu looked at her and pinched the silver in her hand, her eyes filled with pride.
Jiang Miao was a prodigal woman. In order to buy a few fruit trees, she was given a hundred taels of silver as she was told. As soon as she earned some money, it was gone. The Shen family must be full of complaints about her. Zhao Xiuxiu thought maliciously that Jiang Miao spent money so lavishly.
, sooner or later he will be divorced by the Shen family.
