Chapter 55 Spring Ploughing

Then her expression changed again: "Your father values ​​the blood of the Jiang family most."

"I have no choice but to take that little one back and raise him."

Thinking of this, Ms. Liu gritted her teeth and said, "If this is the case, the two hills of Dafang must be given to our family."

What else can the old man do at his old age? If the young one takes over, shouldn’t he be raised by her man?

Jiang Jintao couldn't help but interrupt her mother: "Mom, uncle isn't here yet, so what?"

"You're still thinking too far ahead."

Liu said earnestly and thoughtfully: "This is called taking one step and seeing three steps."

"When you get married and have a mother-in-law and a sister-in-law, you will naturally learn it."

That will happen in the future, and Jiang Jintao can't think that far yet.

She knew this was wrong, but she still couldn't help but think secretly, if the fish lady really couldn't come back, then could some of her clothes and hats be given to her?

After all, the fish girl’s brother is coming to their home, so the clothes should be given to her, right?

Jiang Jintao thought, if this is the case, then she will treat Yu Niang's brother well.

After lunch, Mrs. Liu took the bowl and went to the kitchen.

"Oh," Yang slapped her thigh as soon as she turned around, "I'm so busy."

She called to Jiang Minghui repeatedly: "Hurry up and hitch the mule cart and see if your brother is at home."

"He didn't go out last night, right?"

Mrs. Liu paused and couldn't help but turn around and said, "Mom, the town is further away from the county seat than our village is from the county seat."

"The third brother's family didn't buy a mule cart, and the children are young, so they definitely won't go."

The biased old woman didn't even look at her man, who didn't sleep all night last night, and now she was asking him to get out.

Yang glanced at her and said directly to Jiang Minghui: "Go quickly, that's your brother." She wiped her tears as she said that.

"Sure, sure, I'll go right away." Jiang Minghui agreed immediately.

When he went out and left, he grabbed Ms. Liu.

After closing the door, Ms. Liu threw away her hand and said angrily: "Go to town and do whatever you want me to do."

"I'm afraid you and mother will quarrel." Jiang Minghui answered honestly.

"Tsk," Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at her: "How dare I."

Her old woman shouldn't eat her alive?

Jiang Minghui rubbed the back of his head: "Then you go wash the dishes. I'll leave first."

Mrs. Liu turned around and left. She was getting angry just looking at this man. She had to be busy with everything and could not get anything cheap.

When she looks for a son-in-law for her daughter in the future, she will definitely not be able to find a middle-ranked second son!

In the middle of the morning the next day, Bai came back with several packages of medicine.

Jiang Jinyu thought happily that her mother had become much more capable after what happened on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month.

Bai put the medicine on the stove to fry, and then took out a piece of pork weighing about five kilograms and two packs of snacks from the backpack.

"I'll go to the old house later," she turned to Jiang Ming, who was lying on the kang, and said, "My second brother came up to report to me the night before yesterday."

"It's really hard to run up and down with me all night again."

"Send these to them as a thank you."

"Ah," Jiang Mingshun didn't react for a moment. He didn't expect that his wife, who had always been very dull, had already thought of this, and said subconsciously: "Okay."

Bai Shi quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her promise.

She was in a panic when she went into the city to buy medicine. Fortunately, the bridge collapse did have a serious impact. Now the city is still deserted. Only the drug store is more lively. People who were injured last night came out to buy medicine.

Bai asked all the way and found the pharmacy that Jiang Mingshun had told her about.

After buying the medicine, she still had some money left. She didn't know what she was thinking at the time, so she went to the grocery store to buy two packs of snacks, and then went to get a strip of meat when she came out.She didn't feel anything wrong when she bought it, but the closer she got to home, the more panicked she became.

God!She actually spent so much money on her man without telling her!

Jiang Mingshun had no other thoughts except that he was surprised that his wife suddenly took the initiative.

He had never thought about spending money that Bai was worried about. He had given the money to her, wasn't it just for her to spend it?

He quickly put the matter behind him and enjoyed Bai's massage with peace of mind.

Seeing Bai's relieved look, Jiang Jinyu felt a little uncomfortable. She could vaguely understand her mother's thoughts.

She would have to let Bai into the city in the future. She sighed secretly. She couldn't stay like this, being so timid about even spending a small amount of money, right?
At least she earned her own share of it.

The Lantern Festival is the last festival in the first month of the year. After this day, the land and rivers gradually thaw.

Whether you are building a house or digging the ground, you must be ready.

For farmers, spring plowing is a very important event.

Although his family currently only has two acres of land, Jiang Mingshun has prepared wheat seeds early.

He had been lying down at home for five days. Now he finally got permission to go to the ground, but he was very excited.

Jiang Mingshun walked very briskly and headed to the village chief's house with a small amount of money in his pocket.

Naturally, it would not cost so much money to exchange wheat seeds. He mainly had other things to do this time.

"This matter," Village Chief Li pondered for a moment after hearing Jiang Mingshun's intention, "the sale of land still depends on opportunity."

He said tactfully: "Everyone is living a good life now. It is true that it is rare to hear that anyone wants to sell their land."

Jiang Mingshun smiled nonchalantly: "I know, but you have to pay attention."

"Now is the best time to buy land."

"It will only be harder to find from now on."

"That's true," Village Chief Li nodded in agreement: "In that case, I'll keep an eye on it for you. Don't worry, you won't be late for a good meal."

Jiang Mingshun also knew that this matter would not be easily accomplished, so he thanked the village chief and left with the wheat seeds.

"What should we do?" After hearing Jiang Mingshun's words, Bai asked with some disappointment: "Then our family will only plant these two acres of dry land today?"

In the hearts of farmers, no amount of money can give people peace of mind compared to fields and food.

There was nothing Jiang Mingshun could do. He said uncertainly, "I'll go to the city to find the middleman another day and ask."

Jiang Jinyu listened for a long time, but he didn't expect that buying land at this time was so difficult. It was not something that could be bought with money.

She seemed to ask casually: "Dad, is it so difficult for wealthy landowners to buy land?"

"They also have to wait for someone in the village to sell their land with the money before they can buy it?"

Huangtian Village is not a village with mixed surnames. The main surnames are those two or three families. The ancestors were developed from a few families, so the gap between the rich and the poor is not very big.

To put it simply, if someone is sick, is it possible to really leave the clan members alone?

Even if someone does sell the land, not to mention raising the price, it must be given a market price, and the tribe must not be forced to sell their sons and daughters.

Even if, like Jiang Mingshun's childhood, his parents died, there would still be relatives looking after him.

But there are many landlords in other villages with mixed surnames.

Jiang Jinyu said that she felt that some villages could not even be called villages.

Only one-fifth of the people in the village are farmers who own their own fields, and four-fifths are tenants who rent their own land!
A village like this, Jiang Jinyu complained in her heart, might as well be called a "landlord's large estate".

Jiang Mingshun nodded first, then shook his head.

"I heard from the elders in the village that in the early years, before the dock was built, there were wars and disasters outside."

“There are often people who cannot survive and have to rely on selling their fields.”
