Chapter 112: Is the village chief also here to sell the land?
112 Could it be that the village chief is also here to sell the land? Aunt Ji was on the side and twitched the corners of her mouth sharply. Among the people who praised Jiuniang just now, one of them was a woman she saw outside her house saying that Jiuniang was right and wrong.
I'm thinking about Jiuniang right now?
I'm afraid that if I turn around, I'll have to go outside and make a fool of Jiuniang. All that money is unclean.
However, what Jiuniang has said is right. If you act righteously, you will not be afraid of what other people say gossip. You can do what you want to do.
Suddenly, her eyes glanced outside the courtyard gate, and she saw a chubby figure with a few people, and came over in a hurry.
"Juniang, the rich man from the neighboring village An is here." She hurriedly leaned down and whispered in Xia Beibei's ear.
Xia Beibei looked up and saw the old fat man who had already rushed into the yard. With such a size, Xia Beibei laughed suddenly, and it was rare to catch a breath after walking a few steps.
Along with him were the village chief and Xia Ziqi, who hated her very much, and Xia Ziqing, who knew exactly what her father was doing, but didn't say anything for his own sake.
The corner of her mouth evoked a wicked smile, she glanced at Xia Ziqing disdainfully, then lowered her head and went about her own business.
Xia Ziqing was stared at by her, and his whole body trembled.
Suddenly he realized that he didn't know what he was doing, and that he was despised by Xia Jiuniang. Because of this matter, didn't he discourage Daddy?
But if he wants to go to Beijing to take the exam, and if he wants to make a name for himself, he has to spend money first. If there is no money to spend, those are all bullshit.
Several people saw Xia Guchun come in, and quickly lowered their heads.
"Don't accept it, don't accept it, I will drive these people out." As soon as the rich man entered the yard, he instructed the people he brought with him to take the land deeds in their hands and prepare to sell the land. All the people were driven out of the yard.
These land deeds are all his, how can others get them.
"I see who dares to be presumptuous in my house!" Xia Beibei slammed the table and stood up.
The rich man An was shocked by Xia Beibei's aura, and several servants couldn't help but stop the chasing action in their hands.
"Village Chief, why, you brought people to make trouble?" She looked at Xia Guchun coldly.
Xia Guchun originally had a gloomy face, but after hearing Xia Beibei's words, he froze obviously and didn't know what to say.
"No, no, Jiuniang, I'm just here..." He quickly shook his head, how could he have come to make trouble, even if he really wanted to make trouble at the moment, but in front of so many villagers, there were Grandma Jinxiu was there, and he didn't dare.
However, before he could finish his denial, Xia Beibei interrupted him.
"Could it be that the village chief is also here to sell the land?" Xia Beibei snorted coldly, looking at Xia Guchun with slanted eyes, "I forgot, your Xia Xiucai will go to Beijing to take the exam next year. Sell some land and get him some tolls!"
She particularly aggravated the toll, those two words.
"I wonder if the village chief wants half a tael of silver per acre, or one tael of silver per acre?"
Xia Guchun's face was stiff, and Xia Beibei had already said everything. He suddenly realized that no matter how much he had to say, in front of Xia Beibei, he could only swallow it in his stomach.
The difference between one tael and half tael, everyone knows, what else can he say?
Xia Ziqing's delicate face was slightly distorted. Why did he feel that the word "successful" was completely changed when he read it out of Xia Beibei's mouth?
