Chapter 415: Buying land from the old village chief
The suffocation in front of Qin Yilin was swept away, and he said angrily: "What can we do? Let's buy the dowry quickly."
"Ah?" Ding Heli felt that his brain hadn't caught up yet.
Why are you talking about buying a dowry?
"Otherwise, how do you know I know?" Qin Yilin asked.
Seeing that the head of the house still looked dumb, he could only patiently repeat what Shui Qing had just said, saying that the Hu family's parents were going to buy land and build a house in the village. Ding Heli grinned.
When finally talking about the baby's surname in the future, Ding Heli took a deep breath and asked uncertainly: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Can what Shui Qing say be false? Besides, you also know the character of Brother Hu and Sister Hu. You will never use it to fool us if you can't do it." Qin Yilin said with a smile.
Ding Heli nodded.
The Hu family is full of sincerity.
He didn't pick and choose, just listed them in order. It was fate regardless of the children. Compared with the surname, he cared more about this intention, so he didn't have to worry about his daughter getting married and being teased.
"Okay, it just so happens that I'm going to Yuhang this time. Isn't the silk in Jiangnan the most famous? I'll buy it back and make some clothes for you all."
In the past, the village was not rich, and the clothes were too eye-catching. Now with Hu Shuiqing in front, she can push everything good to her. And from now on, Jiajia is her sister-in-law. She said that her aunt gave her good materials. Who in the village Do you doubt it?
Qin Yilin wore clothes made of silk material when she was young. In the hot summer, it feels cool and comfortable when it sticks to her body. The summer in Shanshui Village is also extremely hot and muggy for a long time. She has long wanted to wear clothes made of silk!
He immediately made a decision: "Okay! Buy a few more horses and make a few sets for your mother-in-law, Shuiqing, and several children."
Ding Heli: ...Why did he go to the back of the queue?
No, why is Sister-in-law Hu already her mother-in-law?
He reminded: "Don't change your story too quickly. It will be bad if the villagers hear it. Besides, what if Jiajia hears it and thinks we are expecting her to get married?"
Qin Yilin rolled her eyes at him: "In the past, I didn't want her to get married early, but now it makes no difference whether she gets married or not in a village? I don't want to hold a baby early."
Ding Heli muttered dissatisfiedly: "You can't keep an eye on our girl before you can give birth."
Qin Yilin has a good ear, and when she heard it, she immediately became furious!
Unconvinced, he slapped him hard on the back: "Who can't give birth? Ding Heli, tell me who can't give birth? It's obviously you who can't give birth!"
Ding Heli hid and said harshly: "I'm sure I can do it, but you still don't know if I can do it?"
Qin Yilin's face turned red, and her raised palms were pinched instead.
When Ding Heli screamed, he saw Butcher Hu striding towards him.
Both of them were stunned. Butcher Hu didn't know what was going on, so he saw Ding Heli shouting as if he saw a life-saving straw: "Hey, in-laws!"
Qin Yilin: ....Who said just now that she changed her tune too quickly!
Butcher Hu grinned and was extremely happy. When he saw Qin Yilin next to Ding Heli, he sighed: "The in-laws really have a good relationship!"
Qin Yilin: .....
Ding Heli rubbed his arms and rushed towards Butcher Hu, then changed his words: "Brother Hu, where are you going?"
Butcher Hu was about to go to the old village chief's house to discuss the purchase of a field, and asked: "Brother Ding, do you want to go with us? It's just the right time, I'm afraid I can't make a good choice."
"No, no, no, Brother Hu, you can choose, no matter where you are!" Ding Heli replied assuredly.
It would be great to be in Shanshui Village. What else could he choose?
Besides, it was not his choice as to which land he could buy. In the end, it was the old village chief who saw what land he could buy.
But no matter where it is, as long as it's in a village, it will do.
Butcher Hu tried some more to persuade him, but seeing that Ding Heli and Qin Yilin were really unwilling, he could only go alone.
After thinking about it on the way, I was still worried that I would not make a good choice, so I found Hu Wenhua, and the father and son went to the old village chief's house together.
The old village chief was lying on the rocking chair under the eaves, listening to the sound of his eldest grandson reading loudly in the yard.
Recently, the potato harvesting has stopped the study for a while. However, Chang Lin is taking the imperial examination route and cannot neglect his studies, so he never leaves his hands with books whenever he has free time.
On the other side of the yard, Wang Guifen and Zhang Hui were peeling potatoes, cutting them into pieces, steaming them, and drying them.
Seeing Hu Wenhua, the butcher Hu, coming, Wang Guifen hurriedly wiped her hands clean on her clothes and greeted him with a smile, "Rare visitor, Uncle Hu, come in and sit down. I'll make tea for you."
Butcher Hu handed over the bacon he was carrying and said in a loud voice: "Sorry for bothering you."
Wang Guifen refused to accept it, so how could he possibly bring back what Butcher Hu had brought? Hu Wenhua continued to persuade him for a while, and finally the old village chief said: "Brother Hu, this is only for this time."
Butcher Hu laughed loudly and said: "Okay, just this time, next time even if I come to trouble me, you won't bring anything with you."
Zhang Hui made the tea first and brought it out, and brought two chairs.
Butcher Hu sat down and spoke his mind.
Wang Guifen and Zhang Hui looked shocked, and then thought that there was chaos outside now, let alone Niutou Town, even living in Fucheng was not necessarily more comfortable than their village! Besides, it would be great if the Hu family settled in Shanshui Village. Wouldn’t they not have to worry about selling rabbits and medicinal materials in the future?
The old village chief was not surprised, as if he had thought of this matter for a long time, and quickly gave several options: "As you know, Fan Damu's family sold themselves to Wu County Magistrate's family and moved to Fucheng, and the fields and forests were sold to Shui Qing's family. Yes, no one bought his house, it has always been empty;
Now that Magistrate Wu has been arrested, I have reported Fan Damu's crime to the governor. The governor said that other slaves could be sold, and Fan Damu's family would be exiled at the lightest, so the land occupied by his house can be bought and sold now.
Do you want it? The disadvantage is that it is a bit small, and the yard that can be enclosed by a few thatched houses is not big. "
Hearing that it was Fan Damu's house, both father and son frowned at the same time.
Building a house is very particular about Feng Shui. For example, Qing'er's land is high and life is getting better and better. If he moves away, others will rush to buy it. Fan Damu couldn't make a living and sold himself as a slave. Later, he committed a crime and was sentenced, so he can't buy it.
Hu the butcher laughed heartily: "Our family originally lived in Niutou Town. The house and yard were small. I thought that I could live in a big house with a big yard in the village, and the family could live comfortably. I don't think this land is suitable. Do you have any other land, brother? ”
The old village chief continued to report the other two: "There is an open space at the end of the village, on the side of the Ding family, but it is not too big, so it can only be expanded behind the wall;
There is also a good place on the right side of the village, which is farther away, but it is really a good place!"
Hu the butcher originally heard about the Ding family, thinking that it was good to be close, and when he heard that the old village chief also said it was a good place, he was moved and asked hurriedly: "Brother, what do you think!"
If the old village chief can praise it, it must be very good.
