Chapter 52 Discussion
Zhang Lan and Zhang Dashan discussed it for a long time. Finally, Zhang Dashan became impatient and asked Zhang Lan to discuss it with his father, Zhang Dashan. After that, he asked Zhang Lan's father to come to the village committee and tell him that Zhang Lan should not think about his own words.

After coming out of the village committee, Zhang Lan did not expect that his father Zhang Dahai would eventually have to come forward.In the eyes of the older generation in his family, Zhang Lan, who is unmarried, is still a hairless kid, and some major issues still require his father's intervention to decide.

When Zhang Lan went home for dinner in the evening, she talked to her father about the contracting of the Xigou Village. Unsurprisingly, she met with strong opposition from her mother: "You said some time ago that you were contracting the Xigou, so what did Zhang Hu say to you?" I understand, why did you start thinking about contracting again within a few months?"

"There was not much money at that time, and my father was in good health. Now that my father is in good health, I have a lot of money on hand, and I am thinking about finding a way to make a living in the future." Zhang Lan explained.

"If you have that kind of money, it would be better to buy a piece of land on the east side of the provincial road and build a front house." Zhang Lan's mother still strongly objected.

His father, Zhang Dahai, didn't say anything. He thought for a while and said to Zhang Lan: "You want to contract that Xigou, have you thought about the water treatment? You can't do anything without water in that place."

"I've thought about it." Zhang Lan had already prepared the draft on the way out of the village committee: "I'll dig a well in the old house first. I can see the water veins now. When the well is drilled, the next water pump will be used to water the ground. Take a look. If you win, you can't object to my contracting the Xigou area."

"Zhong, since you have thought about it, you can try to dig a well in the old house first. If the water from the well is enough to water a hundred acres of land, I will go to the brigade with you to sign the signature." Zhang Lan's father made the final decision.

"You are the head of the family. Don't even think about how much it costs?" Zhang Lan's mother was very dissatisfied with Zhang Lan's father's final decision.

"Since Zhang Lan wants to do something, ask him to give it a try. Everyone in Xigou knows that as long as there is water, even the more than 200 acres of abandoned land on both sides of the slope can make a lot of money a year. And there is also the slope Plant some trees and raise some sheep pens in the abandoned house at the entrance of Xigou Village. As long as you are willing to work for a year, you can earn a lot." Zhang Lan's father, Zhang Dahai, explained to Zhang Lan's mother.

Then he turned to Zhang Lan and said: "My child, since you have this intention, your father will not hit you. As long as the well you dug in the old house can produce enough water to water a hundred acres of land, you don't need anything else." Never mind. Just prepare the money."

Zhang Lan nodded, relieved by his father's support.During this period of time, he had asked his father and mother to "save all sentient beings" several times, and now both of them are in good health.His father, Zhang Dahai, has been clamoring recently to contract some land, and his mother, Li Ying, is also thinking about contracting dozens of acres of land and people in the family.But those are all privately owned lands in the village that are contracted, and the land is paid once a year, and the price is not cheap.The land cultivated in Qingshan Village is basically irrigated land. The rent for one acre of land costs 700 yuan a year, and most of the entire land has been contracted out.The remaining roads were either bad or inconvenient to water, and Zhang Lan didn't want her father to worry about this anymore.

It happened that Zhang Lan was interested in contracting Xigou. There were more than 100 acres of abandoned land outside the village, and there were dots of reclaimed land on both sides of the river inside.Wait until the well is drilled and the pipes are laid out.The fields on both sides will be irrigated by then, so we can just buy a farming tractor and some agricultural machinery, and let my father and mother farm the land.

As for what my mother said about using the money to buy a front house on the provincial road in the east of the village and start a small business, there are now seven or eight supermarkets and more than a dozen restaurants on both sides of the road less than 500 meters away, so what kind of business can be done there.Besides, who would be willing to sell the front houses on both sides? No matter how stupid they are, they will not sell that place.There may be one or two people who are in urgent need of money and may sell their place, but how many people are eyeing that place. Last year, the family that failed to buy the place went to the town to cause trouble, and in the end, the family that bought the house was sold. The old house that had just been built had to be demolished to calm down the situation.Zhang Lan didn't want to get involved in this.I spent 200 million to buy a piece of land, but ended up demolishing both of my houses.

After dinner, Zhang Lan was too lazy to go back to his old house. In the past two nights, there were always people calling him to get together. Since graduation, Zhang Lan has been at home every year. He is very strict and has no particularly close friends except his cousins ​​at home.Nowadays, every time he makes a phone call, he goes out to drink. For a person like Zhang Lan who is not good at sociability, it is really a burden.

But now Zhang Lan's mother is very dissatisfied with Zhang Lan staying at home all day long. She will nag Zhang Lan to ask him to go out and make more friends. It would be better if he can bring a daughter-in-law home when he has nothing to do.Although Qin Yongjun came to visit the house last time, in the eyes of Zhang Lan's mother, those who have not been married and held a banquet cannot be counted.It would be better if you can take your child home directly.

Zhang Lan, who had just finished eating, was sitting on the sofa playing with her mobile phone. She heard someone tapping on the door. She got up and muted the TV sound. Sure enough, it was someone tapping on the door.

It happened that Zhang Lan's mother was cleaning up the east room. Ever since Zhang Lan invited Bodhisattva to the old house, Zhang Lan had left the newly renovated east room unused. Zhang Lan's mother looked at the newly installed air conditioner and the double sofa she bought was somewhat Feeling distressed.So my father Zhang Dahai and I moved the sofa into the living room and put a bed in the east room. We planned to let Grandpa Zhang Lan stay in the east room when he came to live at home. He didn't have to go up and downstairs, and it was convenient to go to the toilet.

Grandpa Zhang Lan made a phone call during dinner just now and said that he would come to live at home tomorrow. Zhang Lan's mother went to the east room to make the bed again after dinner.Someone happened to be taking pictures of the street door, so I came out of the east room to see who it was.

When she opened the door, she saw Murakami's Zhang Yuejin and his wife Wang Guihua. Zhang Lan's mother invited them into the house. Zhang Lan quickly stood up and greeted with a smile: "Uncle Yuejin, Aunt Guihua, you are here. Have you eaten?"

"Just eat, just eat. You sit down, Zhang Lan. I don't smoke, so there's no need to be so polite." Seeing Zhang Lan handing over cigarettes, Zhang Yuejin quickly waved his hand and refused.

The two parties greeted each other politely and sat down on the sofa.Zhang Lan's mother started talking: "What's the matter with Yue Jin coming here?"

Zhang Yuejin and his wife looked at each other. Zhang Yuejin sighed and said, "Sister-in-law, I think you also know about our family affairs. Osmanthus went to Zhang Lan's place to burn incense in the morning. When she came back, she sat on the bed and covered her face and cried. After asking, I found out that Zhang Lan said that my eldest daughter had been sent to the hospital for the past two days."

Zhang Lan's mother glared at Zhang Lan fiercely when she heard this, and quickly comforted: "Guihua, don't believe this, we are all from our own family. Others don't know about burning incense, but you don't know. How long has it taken Zhang Lan to learn it?" , he talks nonsense like that, he can be better than a doctor, so don’t think nonsense."
