Chapter 2747 Revenge is never delayed, it infuriates Ning Xuexiang!
"Father-in-law, you are so good to me, but I really don't have the ability to acquire this land. It's a shame that Susu has to suffer with me!"
"Father-in-law, let me toast you!" Fei Wendian said, looking extremely grateful.
The two of them took a few more sips of wine.
"What are you saying? You're my son-in-law, who else would I treat well if not you?"
Ning Xuexiang's brain was completely controlled by alcohol. He was so coaxed that he was almost out of his mind. As soon as the alcohol hit, he felt a bit tipsy.
With a wave of his hand, he said, "How about this? You just want to prove your abilities, right? I'll give Su Su another 10 acres of land as a dowry!"
"The fertile fields over there by Dongpo!"
"This time, even Fei Zuoshi has nothing to say!"
"Father-in-law, this is unacceptable! How can I possibly take your land?"
Upon hearing Fei Wendian's words, Ning Xuexiang became even more enthusiastic. "Ke Jin, go find the land deed for your brother-in-law!"
"Dad!" Ning Kejin was stunned. He wondered if his father was after something. He usually treated the land like his lifeblood, but now he didn't even blink before offering 10 acres.
"Bang!" Old Man Ning slammed his hand on the table, his big eyes wide with disbelief. "What, don't I have any say in this?"
"It works, it works! Go get the land deed from inside!" Ning Kejin, who had also been drinking, was equally impulsive and directly instructed his wife to get it.
The old man is always coming up with something out of nowhere; he wants to see how dumbfounded he'll be when he sobers up!
“But Father, this land…” Lianye, the eldest sister-in-law of the Ning family, wanted to offer some advice.
"Huh?" Ning Kejin's eyes widened. "Just take it when I tell you to. Who gave you the right to say that?"
"Go!"
Lianye had never had much say in the family, so she could only reluctantly go and get the land deed.
"Son-in-law, keep this safe!"
"Father-in-law, this..."
Drinking alcohol can easily lead to a rebellious mentality, just like Ning Xuexiang is doing now. He has no choice but to take the land deed; if he doesn't, it's considered disrespectful to him!
For farmers, land is not only the foundation of survival, but also their identity, their spiritual home, and even their lifeline.
These days, if you can't acquire land, you can't survive; it's the foundation of survival. At the same time, the amount of land you own determines your social status; it's about identity.
For example, Ning Xuexiang, the richest man in Tianniu Temple Village, hesitated to sell land to redeem his daughter Ning Xiuxiu when she was kidnapped by a woman, fearing that his wealth would shrink and his status would decline sharply.
Of course, this was also related to the preference for sons over daughters in that era. A good acre of land was worth 15 to 20 yuan, and 5 yuan was equivalent to one-third of the Ning family's assets. As someone who regarded the land as his lifeline, Ning Xuexiang would feel like he was losing money if he didn't pick up cow dung when he went out. Even if his heart was bleeding, he couldn't bear to part with it.
On the other hand, it is also related to the preference for sons over daughters in this era.
If it were the brother-in-law who was willing to be kidnapped, he would probably have to sell everything he owned to scrape together 10000 yuan, let alone 5000. Times change, and so do ideas.
The Ning family's ancestors were somewhat similar to the Lu family in the novel *White Deer Plain*, and their rise to power was somewhat dishonorable.
Fei Wendian felt no remorse whatsoever for tricking him!
That old miser is clearly trying to scheme against me.
It was already dark outside when I left the Ning family.
"Steward Liu, please drive slowly on your way back!" Madam Ning was very reluctant to part with her youngest daughter, and tears welled up in her eyes, which were almost red from crying.
"Don't worry, Madam!"
The carriage swayed and rocked. Su Su and her nephew, tired from playing, leaned against each other and fell asleep, drooling from their mouths. They were probably dreaming about the delicious food in their hands again.
Fei Wendian sighed, feeling deeply sorry for the silly girl's tragic fate in the drama, and tucked his fur cloak for warmth under his arm.
This cloak still belongs to Old Man Ning. When he wakes up and learns that he has lost 10 acres of land and the fur cloak that cost him several silver dollars to make a good impression, he will probably be so heartbroken that he won't be able to sleep for several days.
Thinking about this makes Fei Wendian want to laugh!
"Wen Dian, we're home!" Butler Liu's voice rang out from outside the carriage.
They're all from the same village. Even if they live far apart, it's only a few miles in total. Even if the carriage is slow, it will take seven or eight minutes to get home.
"Susu, we're home. Go to bed!" He pinched her little nose affectionately.
"Hmm... I'm sleepy~" If this girl were a hundred years from now, she would probably have to ask her mother for permission to open the box if she wanted to have a drink during the New Year, but now she's already married.
"Where is he? Why hasn't he come down yet?" Fei Zuoshi went out of the house when she heard the sound of the carriage, but she didn't see anyone come into the courtyard. She thought something had happened.
If they don't come back soon, he'll send someone to check on the Ning family. They've been in a state of panic lately because that girl has been too rampant.
Butler Liu looked troubled: "Wen Dian has had a bit too much to drink!" Fei Zuo had been correcting her way of addressing him for the past few days, so she had let it go, but she frowned when she heard that her brother-in-law had been drinking.
"You've been drinking?"
"Old Master Ning kept urging us to drink!"
"This old man has no shame!" They had dealt with each other quite a bit before, and even clashed secretly many times. Fei Zuoshi knew that the other party definitely had no good intentions.
This time, Butler Liu grinned, a hint of schadenfreude on his dark face.
"Don't worry, Grandma, our Wendian didn't suffer any loss, and..." But he hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Sister-in-law, Su Su is asleep!" Fei Wendian struggled to lift her down from the carriage.
There's nothing we can do, the original owner was just that useless!
If he were reborn into someone else's body, he probably wouldn't even look at the original owner. But alas, he doesn't have the right to choose his character. This system is really awful in this respect.
I can barely lift him now, thanks to the training I've had these past two days, plus a bit of willpower. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to lift him at all.
"Oh dear, don't fall!" Fei Zuo was startled and quickly went to help her up.
"No... Sister-in-law, come inside, don't get cold!"
He carried the person straight to the bedroom in one go.
Seeing this, Fei Zuoshi, who was following behind, felt a little jealous. The three-year-old was holding the child she had raised herself. Although he was called her brother-in-law, he was no different from her son.
"Sigh~" She sighed and shook her head slightly.
The couple needs a good relationship so they can have children for the Fei family sooner. Once they have children, her mission will be accomplished, and she can hold her head high when she sees her ancestors.
Fei Wendian then put the person on the bed.
Goodness, he's sleeping so soundly, he's half asleep like a little pig.
"Phew~" He let out a breath, wiped his sweat, and pulled something out of his pocket, handing it over. "Sister-in-law, this is for you!"
"What?!" Fei Zuoshi was just about to go back inside.
"Land deed!"
"Land deed?"
"Ok!"
"Where did it come from?"
"It was given to me by Su Su's father!" Fei Wendian said, barely suppressing a laugh.
After hearing the whole story...
"Pfft~" Fei Zuoshi chuckled, looking at the yellowed paper in her hand. "Then your father-in-law will probably be so angry his old face will turn black after he sobers up!"
"Maybe we'll have to come back and take the land back!"
"Dream on!" Fei Wendian poured himself a glass of water.
night.
The village was quiet. In the Ning family's bedroom, Ning Xuexiang, with his big eyes, suddenly sat up on the kang (a heated brick bed), his eyes wide open as if he were having a nightmare.
"What's wrong with you?" Ning Guoshi, who was standing to the side, opened her eyes groggily.
Ning Xuexiang didn't explain. The next second, without even choosing his shoes, he hurriedly ran down to find the box containing his land deed.
I flipped through it again and again, but in the end, I could only helplessly accept reality.
He plopped down on the ground, Ning Xuexiang was furious.
"Ahhh!" she wailed, pounding her feet and beating her chest in agony. "My good land!"
