Chapter 22 Buying Land
As soon as they drove the bullock cart to the gate of the old house, they were spotted by Xiao Wu, who hurriedly shouted, "Grandpa and the others are back!" After saying that, they ran to greet them. The other brothers came to their senses and hurried forward. .

"Sister, you are back. Didn't you agree to teach me martial arts today? We have been waiting for a long time. When will we start practicing?" Xiao Wu asked.

"I'm sorry, brother, my grandpa, uncle and I went to the town to sell vegetables. The time delay was a bit long. I will teach you after dinner. I must be on time tomorrow." Qibao said with an apology.

"Xiao Wu, my sister has just arrived home. Let her rest first. My sister promised that we will do it. We are not in a hurry. Second brother, please go into the house and bring some water out. Grandpa and the others are here. After a long journey, you must be thirsty!" Xu Wenwu ordered Xu Zhiyong.

At this time, the women at home heard the noise in the yard and came out of the house one after another. Seeing the masters coming back, Mrs. Wang said, "Quick, go back to the house and rest first!"

Looking at the empty bullock cart, my grandma knew that the vegetables must have been sold, and she was very happy and hurriedly followed them into the house.The whole family was sitting in the main room, wondering how much the vegetables were sold for.

Xu Laosan opened his mouth and told everyone what happened in the town one by one. When they heard that the masters were humiliated by the Yipinxian guys, all of them had expressions of indignation on their faces!Hearing that the vegetables were sold to Zuixianlou and a long-term contract was signed, everyone's faces were filled with joy.

Mr. Xu took the silver out of his arms and handed it to Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang took the silver with a happy face and said, "Old man's family, second family's family, and third family's family, hurry up and prepare the meals." Bring it out and eat first." The three wives agreed and walked to the kitchen.

After the family had lunch, the old man said, "I will go to the village chief's house right away and buy a few acres of land next to it. I will also return the ox cart. Old lady, please bring two bags of the snacks I bought. You can’t just ask someone to do something empty-handed.”

After receiving the snacks, the old man took Qibao and the cow and walked to the village chief's house. When he arrived at the village chief's house, he saw the village chief's wife packing the dishes. She must have just finished lunch when she saw Mr. Xu and Qibao entering. He walked into the house and greeted hurriedly, "Why are you here, old man? Are you here to see my old man? You guys sit down first, and I'll shout in the house." Without waiting for anyone to reply, he ordered his daughter-in-law to pour tea, and went into the house to call the village. Long.

After a while, the village chief came out of the house. When he saw Mr. Xu, he said, "Why do you have time to come to my place? Is there something wrong?"

At this time, the village chief's daughter-in-law came in with two bowls of water, and specially made sugar water for Qibao, a child. Sugar is very valuable in farm families.When Qibao saw this, he thanked her sweetly, which made the village chief's wife feel strange for a while.

"Village Chief, it's like this. I want to buy the vacant land next to my old house. I don't know how much money it will cost?" Mr. Xu said.

When the village chief heard that he was here to buy land, he was surprised and asked, "Did I buy the land to grow crops? The open space next to your house is not suitable for growing crops."

Mr. Xu said, "Village chief, have you misunderstood? I bought land to build a house?"

When the village chief heard that building a house was a big deal, he hurriedly said, "The land next to your house is quite big. I wonder how much I want to buy?"

Mr. Xu said, "I plan to buy all the land next to it and build a bigger house. You also know that my family has a large population and the boys have grown up. I will marry a wife in the future and have a house, right?"

The village chief said in surprise, "That piece of open land is nearly five acres. According to the current price, one acre costs three taels of silver. It would cost at least 14 taels to buy that land!" Mr. Xu said, "Village chief, don't worry, the money will be enough." That’s enough, but I don’t know when the ownership can be transferred?”

The village chief said, "Brother, if you are sure you want to buy it, I will go to the town in the afternoon and I can get it done right away!"

"Okay, I wonder if the village chief can help me ask which strong labor force in the village has nothing to do. I would like to ask the villagers to help my family build a new house. I will pay twenty coins a day and provide lunch."

The village chief was surprised and said, "The wages are so high? I work as a day laborer in the town for only fifteen cents a day, and I don't even care about food."

Mr. Xu said, "We are all from the same village. If anything happens to my family, everyone will help. Now if there is any good thing, I can't treat the villagers badly." After that, he took out 15 taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the village chief. He said, "Here is 15 taels of silver for the village chief. The remaining village chiefs also need to take care of things when they go to the Yamen, so I will trouble the village chief to make a trip."

The village chief nodded and agreed. After everything was over, Mr. Xu took his granddaughter and left.

"My dear, I think this old Xu family is well-off. I took out 15 taels of silver as soon as I asked. Not everyone can afford 15 taels, and these pastries are not cheap either!" the village chief's wife sighed with emotion. road.

"Well, no matter how the old Xu family got rich, they always think of the villagers when good things happen to them, which means that the old Xu family are all kind-hearted. I'll go to the Yamen. I'll leave this cake for Shitouxiaxue and come back to eat it!" said Then he picked up the money and went out.

After Qibao returned home, he went to the backyard and poured some spiritual spring water on the vegetables in the yard. He then returned to the kitchen and filled the big water tank at home with spiritual spring water. He took some fruits and put them on the table in the main room. Who wants to eat them? You can use it to eat.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law all got together to make clothes. The children's clothes were almost finished, so Wang called some of her grandchildren to try out the new clothes to see if they fit. When the boys heard that there were new clothes to wear, they were all excited. They rushed in, all with excited faces. When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were helping the dolls put on their clothes, Xiaowu said with an air of "Great, I don't have to wear the remaining clothes that the fourth brother wore!"

Xiaoliu said in various strange postures, "I like new clothes so much. I think my clothes are the prettiest." It was so stinky.Wearing a royal blue dress, Xiao Liu looked like a young lady.

None of the Xu family are ugly, and their children certainly won't be ugly either. Now that they are wearing these new clothes, they feel even more extraordinary.

Qibao was wearing a pink dress, and Lin also embroidered a red plum on the corner of the skirt, making her look even cuter. Standing next to the twin Xiaoliu, they looked more like a pair of golden boys and girls, making them even more rare.

The boys changed into new clothes that fit them well. Xu Wenwu folded all the clothes of himself and his brothers carefully, and each put the clothes in the closet, waiting to wear them to school tomorrow.

When the village chief came back from the town in the evening, he didn't even enter his own house. He went directly to Old Xu's house, handed the documents into the hands of Mr. Xu, and hurriedly summoned the villagers to gather under the big tree at the entrance of the village...
