Chapter 73
It's a pity that he came late. Fortunately, the waiter at the teahouse knew that he was coming back today, so he bought some in advance, and he came just to talk to her about the tea business, and she had something to do, so he So he visited in person.

I earned 200 taels today, plus the 40 taels left over from last time, I should be able to buy a piece of land.

If she really can't, she will still touch Shen Muhan's 500 taels of silver note, because she will return it to him soon.

On the way to the oil shop, Xia Mujin was thinking about buying land in her mind, and at the same time, she was also debating whether to use his bank notes or not.

She now dreams of buying a piece of land, building a big house, and living a warm winter.

After entering the oil shop, she bought another sixty catties of oil. This time she was very smart and brought over the oil bowl from last time. Silver, and because he is a regular customer, he asks for more every time, and this time with the oil bowl, a full twelve taels has been subtracted.

Afterwards, Xia Mujin bought a lot of chili peppers, she picked out the small ones that were spicy, and went to the grocery store to buy some seeds, and finally bought two large jars, and the rest were some bits and pieces of rice oil Salt it.

Although they are all small things, they really take up a lot of space when they are put in the carriage.

She had almost harvested the broad beans in Dayao Village, so she had to find other ways to make money.

When I got home, it was just in time for lunch. Mrs. Xia had already washed and cooked rice, but Shen Muhan and the others didn't come back.

Song Zi was very excited and took her to see his record. In one morning, he was almost four catties of fish.

Mingpeng was going to leave, but Xia Mujin stayed behind. The amaranth he had planted was ready to eat, and the green beans also blossomed and produced beans, but they were still too small. Dried fish is very good for rice.

Mingpeng put down his chopsticks after eating two big bamboo tube rice.

These few days will be very busy again, so Xia Muzhen begged Mingpeng to stay and help, the Zhou family and the Wang family rested for a while, and heard that Wang Dafu fell seriously ill after falling into the latrine, but the bubbles all over his body recovered. After a few days, he started to wander around the village with Liu Mazi and others. Xia Mujin thought, he might be making trouble again.

Mingpeng's responsibility was to protect Miss Mujin. Now that she asked her to stay, he readily agreed to have fresh meals and a bed to sleep in every day. Even if the conditions were poor, it was better than sleeping in the wild forest in the mountains. There are so many mosquitoes.

After dinner, Xia Mujin and her father went to find the village chief Yang Dadong.

Ming Peng was afraid that she would be in danger, so he followed her secretly.

This was the first time that Xia Mujin saw Er Miao.

A thin and thin girl with two cute dimples on her face, she has a very gentle smile, but she is relatively timid, and she feels embarrassed and blushes when she sees her.

The village head has two sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter is married, and she has also married outside the village. Er Miao and Yang Yang are twins, but Er Miao was born a little earlier than Yang Yang and became the second child. She is 14 years old this year, and according to the customs in the village, she has already passed the period of marriage.

It is said that she looks like a well-behaved and weak girl on the surface, but she is very stubborn, and she and her brother have long been secretly in love. Even though such a big incident happened to her family, people in the family kept coming to propose marriage, but she just refused to agree.

In Xia Mujin's heart, she had already identified her as her sister-in-law. Besides, when the house was brought together this year and her brother's legs recovered, she would ask him to propose marriage.

And there is a boy under her, only four years old this year, Ben was still playing in the yard, when he saw them coming, he hurried into Aunt Yang's arms.

It is said that Aunt Yang’s health has not been very good, and it seems to be the root cause of her illness at that time. After all, she gave birth to four children. The old house left by the in-laws.

But his house is not far from Wang's house, and they all know that Wang Dafu doesn't see people coming, so Yang Dadong doesn't let them go out except for the males in the family, even Aunt Yang.

"Village chief, I want to buy land, do you think so?"

Seeing Xia Mujin and the others coming, Yang Dadong warmly invited them to sit down, while Er Miao went to pour tea for them. Xia Mujin took her seat, without beating around the bush, and straight to the point.

"What? Buy land?"

Yang Dadong hugged the fourth baby from Aunt Yang's arms, and whispered something in Aunt Yang's ear, then saw Aunt Yang got up, rubbed her hands on her body, and then went to the back room, while Xia Mujin spoke directly like this , Yang Dadong was really taken aback, he stuttered and asked in disbelief.

Even Er Miao, who brought the tea, looked at her a few more times, as if she had a lot to say in her flickering eyes, Xia Mujin also understood that she had been locked up at home these days, and her brother had inconvenient legs, and the two They probably haven't met yet.

"Mujin, don't scare uncle, this is not a joke."

Yang Dadong sweated for them. Since the Wang family came here, the villagers have not bought land, even food and clothing is a problem. Besides, Mu Jin’s family has been in constant trouble, but now they want to buy land. How does this make him Can not be surprised.

Xia Mujin was also a little thirsty after walking all the way, so she took a big sip after serving the tea, glanced at Yang Dadong, and said calmly, "Village Chief, do you think I'm joking?"

As he said that, he took out a stack of bank notes and said, "I don't know how I bought it here, and how big it can be bought with this money, just tell me."

Yang Dadong looked at the stack of banknotes, his mouth was open and he could barely speak. Although he heard the villagers talking this morning, saying that the Xia family has been making orchid beans these days, Aunt Six and Erdan tasted them all. , and even boasted that this was the best thing they had ever eaten.

And early in the morning, some people watched them go to the town, and some even saw them setting up a stall in the town. It is said that there are many people queuing up, but they never thought that they would come here with so many banknotes to bury them at this moment. land.

"Why don't you take us to have a look. The price of this place must be related to the location. My father is a carpenter, so he probably knows a little bit about Feng Shui. We can make a decision after we have a look."

Xia Muqin heard slight movements outside, so she smiled and said to Yang Dadong.

When Xia Senlin was mentioned, his face was frightened, and he wanted to clarify his incompetence in this area with embarrassment, but he was restrained by Xia Mujin's eyes. Then, she winked at him mischievously , a little puzzled, but he didn't make a sound, his daughter already had a lot of clever ideas, so he smiled at her naively, but looked away unnaturally.

Generally, carpenters do know some Feng Shui, but Xia Senlin...has no accomplishments in this area. This is a well-known fact, but now Xia Mujin is praising Xia Senlin in front of Yang Dadong, and he No explanation was made, which made Yang Dadong a little confused.

"Hey, village chief, can I have a conversation with sister Ermiao?"

Xia Mujin rolled her eyeballs smoothly, glanced at the figure outside and disappeared, and asked Yang Dadong.

Yang Dadong has always understood Er Miao's thoughts, and Xia Tieshu is also a good boy. Before, in view of the constant accidents in his family, Tie Shu was injured for Er Miao. He couldn't bear to enter Xia's house and be hungry and full!

But at the same time, he was ashamed of Xia's family out of conscience. Er Miao went on a hunger strike for several days, but the Wang family let him know that as long as Er Miao went to Xia's house, his family would rob Er Miao and use it as a small house. They were all frightened, so they grounded Er Miao. During this time, the child also cried. He committed suicide and went on a hunger strike. The husband and wife saw it in their eyes and felt pain in their hearts. What he knew, because the affairs in this village were enough for him to have a headache.

Of all the previous village chiefs, who is as useless as him...

Now that Mu Jin said this, he felt embarrassed. Walking down the steps, he stepped forward, held Xia Senlin's hand, and said, "Brother Xia, I am the one who is sorry for your iron tree!"

As he spoke, he choked up and cried.

"We know, we all know, you also have your reasons and difficulties, and they are all in the heart of your parents, so, when our family's conditions are met, as long as you agree, and Er Miao also agrees, she will be the daughter-in-law of my Xia family. "

Xia Senlin can understand the difficulties of a false father, if Jin'er encounters this situation, he will also have his own selfishness.

Xia Mujin saw the two big men speak frankly with red eyes, but smiled like honey was wiped on the corners of their mouths, walked towards the crying Er Miao, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over, whispering: : "Sister Ermiao, brother misses you every day. He can stand up and go. During this time, you should listen to Uncle Dong and Auntie and stay at home. When the time comes, our family will come to propose marriage. As long as you If you promise to marry, my brother will marry, if you don't agree, let us know earlier."

As soon as Xia Mujin finished speaking, Er Miao grabbed her arm, was out of breath from crying, and said inarticulately after nodding: "I am willing, I am willing!"

Xia Mujin's eyes were also red, so she patted the back of her hand comfortingly, and walked towards Yang Dadong and the others.

And attached to him muttered for a while, and then, seeing Yang Dadong's eyes flashed a trace of complexity, and seeing Xia Mujin's determined eyes, he entered the inner room with a heavy heart.

"Jin'er, what did you say to your Uncle Dong? Why doesn't he look so good?"

As soon as the atmosphere eased, seeing Yang Dadong's face change, Xia Senlin quickly pulled off Mujin's sleeve and asked worriedly.

"Father, it's okay, just wait and watch the excitement."

Xia Mujin grinned at Xia Forest, and said very easily.

After a while, Yang Dadong came out, followed by Aunt Yang, her hands were covered with water, she must be busy with something, Yang Dadong whispered in her ear, and asked her to open the door, and shouted loudly if something happened, Yang Dadong The aunt's eyes showed timidity, she glanced at Er Miao and the youngest son, then nodded to Yang Dadong, and told him to be careful on the road.
