Chapter 142

"Why is it impossible?" Gu Yao shrugged her shoulders, and said with an innocent face, "Could it be that you are greedy for tomatoes?" After finishing speaking, she nodded her head seriously.

Shen Qiangwei took a bite of the tomato angrily, and immediately stopped talking.

This Yaoer, obviously the tomatoes are delicious, but she actually says she is greedy.

"Miss Gu, I heard from your father that you have strawberries?" Shopkeeper Shen saw that Gu Yao and Shen Qiangwei stopped talking, so he walked over with a smile and asked.

Gu Yao smiled and said, "There are quite a few. Why, shopkeeper Shen, you still have strawberries in your restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Shen shook his head with a smile and said: "That's not true, it's like this. Our boss has been checking the accounts in Fucheng these days. Our boss likes to eat some fruits, so he wanted to buy some from you and send them over."

Gu Yao smiled and said: "That's it, it's fine, you can go home with me later, I'll pick it for you, and take a look at my other fruits by the way, if you like it, you can take it back together chant."

Shopkeeper Shen smiled at Gu Yao and said, "Then please trouble Miss Gu."

Gu Yao waved her hands and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Shen, you're being polite."

Shen Qiangwei was stunned watching from the sidelines, if it was her, she would probably be cowardly now, her father always said that she was a coward, she was really right!

If she meets someone she doesn't know, she can be more obedient than the big yellow dog lying on the edge of the shed.

But she is really envious of Yao'er!
She treats others generously, but she can't do it. No wonder dad always says she's worthless at home!
Although there were a lot of vegetables in Lishui Village, they were all over just before noon. You Jin said to the villagers: "Everyone, I have memorized the output this time, and you should take good care of the remaining ones in the field." .”

"I'll settle the bill for you when I've done the calculations here. Don't worry, it won't be later than the day after tomorrow at the latest." You Jin thought, he should have done the calculations after a day and a half.

No matter how bad it is, if you really can't figure it out, go to Zhuo Qin and ask Zhuo Qin for help.

There were only four families renting the ancient Yao land. After hearing You Jin's words, they all nodded with smiles and said:

"We know, we are all relieved that Guan You is doing things."

"Yes, don't worry, Manager You, we will take good care of the rest of the dishes."

"Don't worry about things, You Guan, just take your time."

"That's right, just take your time, don't worry."

You Jin nodded with a smile.

After finishing the matter in Lishui Village, Gu Yao didn't follow Qian Gui to his house for dinner, but took shopkeeper Shen and went back to Yijia Village. As for Shen Qiangwei, she fled back home with some vegetables that Gu Yao gave her. .

After all, everyone present knew that she knew Gu Yao.

Sitting in the carriage, You Jin looked at the account book in her hand, feeling very excited in her heart, Gu Yao looked at his appearance, smiled, and said, "Look at you, why are you so excited!"

You Jin shook her head and said, "I don't know, I'm just so excited."

"Okay, when you go back to settle the accounts, you can ask Zhuo Qin if you don't know anything. If Zhuo Qin is not free, you can ask me, and try to settle the money of each family as soon as possible." Gu Yao said.

"Yeah." You Jin nodded and said, "I went to Zhuo Qin a few days ago and learned some things about the accounts from him. By the way, Miss, I'll show you when I've done the calculations."

Gu Yao nodded and said, "Okay."

When the carriage reached the door of the house, Yi Jiang happened to come back from the orchard. Because of the wine cooperation, Yi Jiang and shopkeeper Shen were also very familiar.

Yi Jiang knew two carriages, one belonged to his family, and the other was used every time shopkeeper Shen came over.

Looking at the people coming down from the carriage, Yi Jiang said with a smile, "The shopkeeper Shen is here, please come inside."

Shopkeeper Shen looked at Yi Jiang who was wearing a bunt and carrying a hoe, and said in surprise, "Master Yi has gone to the field?"

Yi Jiang was not used to the title 'Master Yi' at first, but he got used to it after listening to the servants at home calling 'Master', 'Master'.

Yi Jiang said with a smile: "It's not that shopkeeper Shen doesn't know, my family has built an orchard, no, I was busy working in the orchard just now."

Gu Yao stood on the side, said with a smile: "Daddy, let people go in first, what's the point of chatting at the door!"

Yi Jiang slapped his forehead, and suddenly said: "Yes, yes, look at my head, shopkeeper Shen, let's go, chat inside, chat inside."

"Okay, I'm sorry." Shopkeeper Shen said.

After a few people entered, Mrs. Li was preparing dinner in the kitchen, and You Jin went back to her room to start to settle the accounts. After all, the money given to the villagers should be calculated quickly.

As for Gu Yao, while Yi Jiang was chatting with shopkeeper Shen in the front hall, she took the people brought by shopkeeper Shen to the big shed in the yard to pick fruits.

"Miss Gu, your yard is really big!" the man sighed, his eyes full of envy.

Gu Yao looked at the shed in front of her with a basket on her shoulders, and said with a smile, "It's okay, let's go, I'll take you to pick fruits."

"Ah."

The two entered the shed, and the temperature inside the shed was much higher than outside. As soon as they entered, the guy tugged at his collar, and said involuntarily, "The temperature inside is really high!"

"No, otherwise, how could this fruit ripen so quickly!" Gu Yao said, gave the man a strawberry, and said, "Try it."

The guy thanked Gu Yao, tasted it, and said: "Miss Gu, your fruit is really delicious." Then he said embarrassedly: "Well, how much is your fruit a catty!"

"My mother was talking about wanting to eat fruit during this time, so I just thought about it."

Gu Yao glanced at the guy, but she didn't expect him to be filial, so she said, "If you want to buy it, just pay the same price as shopkeeper Shen."

"Strawberries cost [-] Wen a catty, blueberries cost [-] Wen, and that little tomato costs [-] Wen."

The guy's mouth was wide open, and he couldn't help blurting out: "It's so expensive!" After he finished speaking, his face was flushed, and his eyes didn't know where to put them.

Gu Yao also knew that the price was expensive, so she explained: "I can assure you that you can't buy these fruits outside except at my house."

The guy nodded his head and said, "Then I want a pound of small tomatoes and strawberries, and I'll take them home for my mother and the others to try." He couldn't afford any more.

"Okay." Gu Yao said with a smile, "I'll teach you how to choose."

"Miss Gu, you are so kind." The guy said a little embarrassed.

Gu Yao smiled at him, and then began to teach him what is mature and precautions.

After sending shopkeeper Shen away, Gu Yao began to think about buying the hill. That night, she went to Yi Jiang's room and said with a bright smile, "Daddy, I have something to talk to you about."

Yi Jiang raised his eyebrows, he knew what Gu Yao wanted to say, but he still asked, "What's the matter?"

"Hey." Gu Yao said, "It's about buying the mountain top!"

"Have any money?" Yi Jiang asked.

"That's necessary." Gu Yao took out a lot of bank notes from her pocket and put them on the table, some of which were sent back to him by Yi Ranchen, and some were earned today.

"Daddy, I'll give you all these. Go to the county seat tomorrow and help me buy a hill."

Yi Jiang didn't speak, but sorted out those banknotes, he was shocked, and asked: "These are the money you sell vegetables today?"

Gu Yao smiled and said: "How can it be, some of this is what Yi Ranchen sent back to me last time, and some of it is money from selling vegetables today."

"Brother Chen gave it to you?" Yi Jiang asked.

"That's right!" Gu Yao said with a smile: "We agreed when Yi Ranchen left, I would lend him the money, and he would give me [-]% of the money he earned."

"Thirty percent?"

"Yeah." Gu Yao nodded, and then said: "It's just this one time, when he goes next time, he won't need to share."

Yi Jiang stared and said, "You still expect people to give you a share every time you go out!"

Gu Yao sneered and said, "How is that possible! Daddy, you are overthinking."

Yi Jiang frowned, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the Yamen tomorrow to buy you a hill. I really don't know why you insist on buying a hill. Wouldn't it be good to buy a piece of land to build a house?"

Gu Yao shook her head and said, "That feels different."

"Yao'er, in fact, the house we live in now is quite good, there is really no need to buy it again."

"Daddy." Gu Yao interrupted Yi Jiang's words, and said seriously: "Daddy, you are still young, and your family is doing well now. You can consider marrying a wife."

Yi Jiang frowned and said, "Forget it." After all these years, why bother.

"Forget what you mean!" Gu Yao widened her eyes and said, "Daddy, you are only 27 years old this year. You are still young. Why can't you marry a wife? Don't worry, if I meet the right one, I will definitely help you." Listen carefully."

Yi Jiang nodded Gu Yao's head with a smile, and said, "What are you talking about, what do you mean you met the right one?"

"If you marry a daughter-in-law, you will marry her to be my stepmother, so you have to choose someone I like!" Gu Yao said confidently.

"Why, it's enough that you like it, I don't need to like it!" Yi Jiang said.

Gu Yao's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry, Dad, I will definitely pick someone back who you like, and I like too." Saying that, she jumped up from the chair.

"Daddy, it's getting late, I'll go back to bed first, Daddy should go to bed early too." After saying that, she ran out of the room, not forgetting to close the door when she left.

Yi Jiang shook his head helplessly, and didn't take Gu Yao's words to heart.

Even if there is someone who wants to marry him, so what, but more, it is only his money, this kind of person, don't forget it!

Early the next morning, Yi Jiang went to Ling County to buy a hill for Gu Yao, and he didn't come back until after lunch. What he brought back was not only the title deed of the hill that Gu Yao asked for, but also the title deed of [-] acres of land.

Gu Yao was stunned when she got it, and asked, "Dad, didn't you just buy the hill?" How come there is an extra [-] acres of land!
"I'm here to buy the mountain." Yi Jiang took a sip and continued, "But the county magistrate may think I'm stupid, so he said, if I'm willing to spend another 100 taels, he will give me all the land near the mountain. gone."

"After all, in their view, this mountain is useless at all!"

Gu Yao blinked her eyes and said, "Then you spent 100 taels?"
