Happy peasant girl

Chapter 122 Buying land and hiring people (4)
When Lin Qingxi signed the contract document with Yeying, she read every word on the document, and found a loophole in the document. She didn't plan to take out the 1 taels of silver for buying the land at all. , This is the principal of her "laying the foundation".

"Girl Xi, when did you become such a thoughtful person. Grandpa never expected that you would forget the basics of being a human being. How could you have such calculations and ideas? You are so disappointing to Grandpa." Linyuan Mountain looked at Linqingxi with some sadness and said.

"Grandpa, I haven't changed. I know what you think of me now, but I don't think I did anything wrong. Think about it carefully, what's wrong with opening up wasteland and farming? It's the same in good fields, so the people of Chu State are not afraid of not having food. Even if they don't have land, they can grow good crops on the wasteland. Also, there are many refugees in Fu'an County, and many of them can't even eat , we asked them to do work for us, and it wasn't for nothing, we gave them food, gave them drinks, and found them a place to live, which is considered a great deed." People in Linyuan Mountain didn't understand Linqing Xi can understand that people will do many things step by step because of kindness, but in many cases, people have to learn to look at things from a different angle, so that the same result will have unexpected gains in a different way.

"Grandpa, I think Miss Xi is right. Since her senior brother only asked for [-] mu of land, isn't it also [-] mu if we turn the wasteland into fertile land? This is not considered treachery. It's not that you and father are unaware of the harm that has been brought about, you said that they are all the same people, in this case, let's give them a place to live and live." After some advice from Lin Qingxi, Lin Qingyun can already guess Knowing the way, I have to say that my sister's move is indeed a bit "cunning", but others can't say anything.

Linyuan Shan and Lin Zhongguo couldn't change their minds for a while. They all felt that Lin Qingxi's actions were a bit "slick" or even "deceitful", but after she said it, her actions seemed to be right. Not only that, but there are many benefits.

"Grandpa, Dad, I don't want to make you angry, but I have my own way of doing things, and I'm not a child anymore. If you don't agree with my way, then you don't know about this matter, this is I know how to do the things agreed between me and my senior brother, even if it is a little harder, a little tiring, and I am misunderstood by you and outsiders, I will accept it." Lin Qingxi said this a little wronged, but buying land When it comes to hiring people, she should be the one who can really decide.

"Does it mean that no matter how much your father and I object, you still want to open up wasteland and farm, and then ask refugees to farm?" Linyuanshan looked at Linqingxi and asked seriously.

"That's right, even if Grandpa and Dad don't intervene in this matter, I will do the same. Some money should be spent as it should be, but some money can be saved as much as possible. Maybe the saved money can do more things." Lin Qingxi said leisurely.

"Well, my old man doesn't care about this matter, you can do whatever you want!" Linyuan Shan turned and left angrily.

"Girl Xi, why did you bother to make your grandpa angry!" Lin Zhongguo said disapprovingly.

"Father, it's okay, Grandpa will be fine in two days, and he will take the initiative to help me!" Lin Qingxi said with a smile.

"Are you so confident?" Lin Zhongguo is also helpless. His children have grown up and have many ideas that are different from theirs. It is not a solution to restrain them. It is better to let them go and let them do whatever they want .

"That's natural. The person Grandpa loves the most is me. Father and brother, just wait. Grandpa will definitely help me within three days." Lin Qingxi said mysteriously.

Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qingyun didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Linqingxi's gourd, but before dawn the next day, she took Lin Qingyun out, and the small wooden box she mentioned under the pillow was gone.

She and Lin Qingyun came back very late at night, and she was sweating profusely. Lin Qingyun also told his family that Lin Qingxi suffered from heat stroke twice on the way to explore the wasteland.That night, Lin Qingyun was reprimanded by Linyuan Shan, Ye Shi, Lin Zhongguo, and Mu Shi.

For three days in a row, Linqingxi left early and returned late, either to inquire about the wasteland or the refugees. She was even ready to go to the place where the refugees gathered to find someone, but she fainted and was carried away. back home.

Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Mu had already learned from the two brothers Lin Qingyun and Lin Qingfei that Lin Qingxi was going to buy land for Wei Xuan to hire people, and they also knew that Lin Qingxi wanted to invite refugees to open up wasteland, and then turn the wasteland into fertile land. .

The women of the old Lin's family felt that Lin Qingxi not only did nothing wrong, but also did it right, especially Ye Shi, felt that Lin Yuanshan was stupid this time, so they talked about him all day long, and never gave him any advice. With a good face, it's even more his fault for making Lin Qingxi suddenly ill.

Late that night, looking at Linqingxi lying on the bed with a haggard face, Mrs. Ye got angry at Linyuan Mountain again.

"The child's father, girl Xi is like this, you don't feel bad at all. There's nothing wrong with her careful planning at a young age, it's not because of our family. If you want to be a good person, you do it! Hmph, From tomorrow onwards, I will help girl Xi to find land, and I will go to the refugee den. My old lady doesn't believe it, and she brings food and drink to their mouths, but they still don't eat!"

"Mother, I... When did I say I don't feel sorry for Miss Xi? It's because this child is too stubborn. I don't know if she's calculating like that for the good of our family, but what she's calculating is not ordinary people like us. You've seen Girl Xi's master, wife, uncle, and brother. They can be ordinary people. When they came to Beijing this time, the children didn't say what Miss Xi's master did, but I could feel it. It's not a simple character either. We can't afford to offend these people, if girl Xi offends them, I don't care about my old bones, but what about the children!" It's not that Linyuanshan didn't listen to Linqingxi's words, It's just that he was worried about other things. This time when Linqingxi came back, he didn't tell his family about Huai Shaozhi's real identity, but Linyuanshan is not so easy to be deceived. He can feel that Linqingxi's master is not ordinary. .

When Linyuan Mountain said these words, Linqingxi just woke up, but did not open his eyes.She has worked so hard these past few days because she hopes that Linyuanshan will help her because she loves her, but she doesn't know that the reason why Linyuanshan doesn't want her to do that is because she is afraid that she will get into trouble.

It was she who misunderstood Linyuan Mountain. She felt that she was very unfilial and shouldn't worry her family like this.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry!" Lin Qingxi opened his eyes, turned to look at Linyuan Mountain and said.

"Silly girl, I'm sorry for what you said to grandpa. Hey, grandpa knows what you want to do. Even if grandpa stops you, you will do it. Rest at home tomorrow, and you don't have to worry about other things Grandpa is there for everything." Linyuanshan compromised, it was a blessing or a disaster, if it was a disaster, he couldn't avoid it, the children insisted on doing this, as Grandpa, he had to sacrifice his life to accompany him.
