delicious farm girl

Chapter 56
The matter of buying land has been initially settled, but the specific planning has to be done slowly.

Mr. Yuan was in a good mood today, but now that he heard about this, he was even more excited, and quickly called Su Ran and Li Er to his study together to study this matter carefully.

Mrs. Huang didn't understand such things, so she didn't join in the fun.

Brother Quan and Brother An are also half-grown children, and this is not considered the Su family's family affairs, so it is inconvenient for them to intervene, so they drag sister Qiu and call Big Huang and Xiao Huang to watch the rabbit together.

In the end, only Mr. Yuan, Li Er, and Su Ran entered the study.

After entering the house, Mr. Yuan didn't ask them directly about their plan, but looked at Li Er with a smile in his eyes: "Did you finally catch that fox?"

Li Er nodded his head in a low voice.

A question mark popped up in Su Ran's heart. "Sir, do you also know about that litter of foxes?"

"I know! At the beginning, I told him to let that brood of foxes stay on the mountain well, and don't touch them unless necessary. But unexpectedly, for you, he went to catch one and brought it back. "Mr. Yuan replied cheerfully.

Think too.Before her, Mr. Yuan lived with Li Er for several years, and he was the one who talked to Li Er the most back then.Then it was normal for him to know more about the fox than she did.

However, why did she still feel a little stuffy in her chest when she told herself so in her heart?

Is it because Li Er didn't tell her about the fox in the first place?Su Ran felt that she could be hypocritical.

"But..." Immediately, Mr. Yuan's voice sank again, "When I was drinking at the village chief's house yesterday, I heard the village chief's son talking, which meant that hunters from other places would often walk around the mountain after this month? Presumably they are Are they here for other white foxes?"

"Yeah." Li Er nodded, "But they didn't find anything."

"That's fine, I'm relieved." Mr. Yuan patted his chest quickly, "Okay, let's not talk about this, now let's talk about buying land! How do you plan?"

Of course, it was Su Ran's turn to talk about it.She said what she had discussed privately with Li Er a few days ago: "We asked about it these days, and found out that good land is about five taels of silver per mu, and barren land can be won for as little as two taels of silver. We have spent two taels of silver these days, but we still have 18 taels on hand. We thought, anyway, now that the rabbits have grown up, we can cover our monthly expenses just by selling rabbits, so we will keep two taels Two silvers are emergency, and there are 16 taels left to buy land. No matter how you can buy one or two acres of good land, plus three or four acres of barren land. Although it is not much, at least you have land under your name. The rations can be grown. It just so happens that it is time to harvest the wheat, and we will buy it when the wheat is harvested, and we can start spring plowing after buying it."

"Sure!" Listening to Su Ran's words, Mr. Yuan nodded again and again, "Since you have planned things so clearly, sister-in-law, then everything will be done as you said! I think it is very feasible! "

"It's just that I'm going to trouble you, sir, to ask the village head, Juzhong, to make peace." Su Ran said hastily.

Mr. Yuan is the most famous person in the village.In addition, the village just gave birth to five children, not only the village chief liked him very much, but also the villagers admired him very much.He came forward to talk to the village chief about buying the land, and the village chief would definitely do his best to help.If someone in the village really wanted to sell the land, they wouldn't ask for an exorbitant price.This can save a lot of trouble.

Of course, Mr. Yuan also understood this truth, and he immediately took this task on himself. "That's easy to talk about! Brother Liang's parents are going to invite me to a banquet today. After eating, I will go to the village head and talk to him about it. You just wait at home for news from me!"

Su Ran nodded quickly.

"By the way, all my brothers, Brother An, have passed the exam. Our family has to set up a few banquets and invite people from the village."

As she said that, she turned her head to look at Li Er: "Let's go to the town again tomorrow and buy some meat. Then the banquet will look better."

"Well, I should also buy some red dates and lotus seeds." Li Er said in a deep voice.

Su Ran couldn't help but blushed again. "I haven't finished eating the ones I bought last time, so what are you doing in such a hurry to buy a bunch?"

"Not much more." Li Er said.

"You can still eat for half a month!" Su Ran yelled.

Li Er shook his head. "Forget about the finer things."

Su Ran was anxious to quarrel with him again.Mr. Yuan saw this scene in his eyes, and quickly stood up to smooth things over: "Okay, it's a rare Shuangxi Limen, and you still have some money on hand, so why don't you buy more things and come back to stockpile? There are only a few things left. The amount for half a month is actually not much, Li Er can buy it if he wants to! It’s rare that he wants to treat you better, so why should you refuse him, sister-in-law!”

Even if he was speaking for Li Er, Su Ran could only take a step back. "Okay then! But this time, we can't buy too much. We just have some money on hand, but there are more places to spend it. When the child is born, there will be more places to spend money!"

"Of course, he doesn't say anything, but he knows what's in his heart. Just don't worry about this sister-in-law." Mr. Yuan nodded quickly, and pushed Li Er away, "The matter of buying the land is settled first. You guys Think about going to the town tomorrow to buy some food and come back!"

Su Ran and Li Er came out, stood in the yard and looked at each other again, Su Ran turned and went into the house.

When Xiao Huang saw Li Er coming out, he quickly ran over and circled him, wagging his tail.Li Er looked down at this dog who was so enthusiastic towards him for some reason, suddenly his shoulders slumped, and he slowly raised his feet and entered the room.

Now Su Ran is already doing needlework in the house.I saw that she was holding a piece of bright yellow cloth in her hand, and she was threading the needle with the other hand. A budding lotus had already taken shape on the cloth.

The fresh and tender color, against the lotus, is really indescribably delicate.

Li Er's eyes dimmed involuntarily, and he walked slowly to her side. "What's this?"

"A bellyband made for a child." Su Ran replied in a low voice.

"But this color..."

As soon as Su Ran stopped, she looked up at him. "This is for my daughter. Actually, I don't know whether the belly is a boy or a girl. It's just that I have this piece of cloth left over from making clothes before. I don't want to waste it. I just thought about making a bellyband for the child. Maybe Is it a girl? I didn't say that I must have a girl. I like boys too. I just thought that there might be this possibility..."

"I know, I don't dislike girls." Li Er hastily interrupted her explanation.

Su Ran bit her lip and lowered her head again.

Li Er sat down beside her, and poked his big palm towards her lower abdomen again.

Su Ran was still too thin.Although since marrying Li Er, every meal can be full, and people have gained a little weight, but after all, their foundation is too poor, so their arms and legs are still pitifully thin, so now there are three children in their stomachs. It's been one month, but her lower abdomen is still flat, and there is no sign of pregnancy at all.If it wasn't for the fact that she started to have morning sickness these days, Li Er couldn't believe that there was already a little baby in her thin body.

But it was because of this that he couldn't bear it even more...

"You're too thin," he whispered.

Su Ran lowered her head and continued sewing without speaking.Li Er slowly opened his mouth again: "Before the baby is born, you have to make up for it. Anyway...you have to gain some weight."

puff!
Su Ran really couldn't help it.

Asking this man to say a few more words would make him feel worse than killing him.Look, in just a few words, he has already been suppressed like this!She listened to worry about him.

"I understand what you mean, but there's no rush for this matter." Su Ran said to him softly, "Besides, haven't I been eating all the time?"

But still too little.Seeing her such a thin body every day, and thinking about the fact that a little guy will come out of her stomach in half a year, he couldn't stop being anxious.He even doubted that with her current body, would she really be able to give birth to a child safely?Such thoughts are driving him crazy these days!
It's just that he couldn't express such worries, so he could only try to get her to mend her body first.

"Anyway, you just need to eat more every day!" In the end, he could only throw out this sentence so forcefully.
