Chapter 51: Splitting up the Family and Buying Land
Old Mrs. Ji began to tremble in her heart. Although she could not recognize a single word, she still read it over and over again several times.
The two daughters-in-law also came over to look, and their expressions became worse and worse.
Malacca took a look and found the yellow paper so familiar. Wasn’t this the article he copied himself?
How did he become a court clerk?
He glanced at Ji Xiaobei, who was winking at him.
He immediately understood that his boss was extremely smart.
The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were holding papers, looking at each other.
In the end, the third daughter-in-law couldn't hold her temper anymore.
He knelt down in front of Old Lady Ji and said, "Mom, Sanhu can't go to the army. What should I do without him?"
"Yes, mother, Ergou can't go either. He is so small that he will die if he goes."
Mrs. Ji: ...
Lin was confused. What was going on with her daughter? Every time she asked her, she said she had no news...
No, Lin suddenly understood what was going on. The stone in his heart fell and he straightened his chest.
If you want to control me, first ask my eldest daughter if she agrees.
The three men threw away the yellow paper and hurriedly put all the things on the door panel, preparing to take them away.
"Wait a minute!" Ji Xiaobei waved his hand to stop them.
"I won't live in your house anymore. I'm going back to live there..." Old Mrs. Ji forced out an ugly smile.
"Grandma, we haven't split up. Even if you don't live in my house, we are still a family in the household registration. If the people from the county government investigate, none of you will be able to escape."
The three of them were stunned again...
The old lady immediately thought of a solution: "Second daughter-in-law, go find the head of the village and divide the house today."
"No, grandma, you can't abandon us. We still have to go on the road together." Xiaohua ran out from behind Lin crying.
Everyone was stunned...
"Why are you crying? Just go with your mother..." Boss Ji yelled.
Xiaohua was not afraid at all. She ran over and grabbed the corner of Old Lady Ji's clothes and said, "Grandma, you said you would give me the silver bracelet on your hand!"
That time, Grandma Ji asked Xiaohua to help her light the fire, but Xiaohua was unwilling. Grandma Ji lied to her and said that she would give her the silver bracelet on her hand.
Old Mrs. Ji gritted her teeth, stamped her feet, took off the silver bracelet on her wrist and gave it to Xiaohua.
Xiaohua wiped her tears and ran back to the house.
At this time, Ji Li was running over in a hurry.
"What's going on? Are you trying to split up the family?" he asked, panting.
Ergou's wife told him this on the way.
"Mrs. Ji, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You saw that your eldest son's family was doing well, so you wanted to come and live with them. But when you heard that you were going to be exiled, you ran away faster than a rabbit. That's really unkind of you!"
Kiritsugu lectured.
"Village head, I am in poor health, so please divide it among us!" Old Mrs. Ji smiled awkwardly.
"How about this, the boss is missing, and his family is on the road, old and young, you take out some silver, five taels of silver!"
When Mrs. Ji heard this, she immediately became unhappy.
"Where do I have the money?"
"You don't have it, Ergou and Sanhu brothers take it. Anyway, if you don't take the silver, the family won't be able to divide it."
Ji Li was sitting on the door panel with a red face, and said angrily.
How can a dignified village head allow you to do evil?
Ji Lizheng snorted.
The two daughters-in-law looked at each other, and Ergou's wife said, "Take it, let's take it."
Sanhu's wife nodded.
"Okay, you go get the silver, and I'll go back and ask Shugen to write the document!" said Ji Lizheng.
The two daughters-in-law were afraid that something might happen, so they asked the old lady to go back and get the silver.
Haixia handed Ji Xiaobei a piece of paper, which was the document of division of the family property written by him.
Ji Xiaobei gave him a big thumbs up in his heart.
You are smart and quick to react! I will give you a chicken drumstick tonight.
"Uncle Village Head, this is written!" Ji Xiaobei handed it over.
Ji Lizheng couldn't read anyway, so he said, "Wait until your grandma comes back and both parties sign it."
After a while, Old Lady Ji came back with the silver.
The two families put their fingerprints on it and finally divided the house.
Ji Lizheng said, report this matter to the county government, and once it’s settled, we will send you new household registration cards.
The two daughters-in-law ran away quickly carrying the door panels.
Old Lady Ji chased after them: "Damn it, you two run faster or I'll come back and deal with you!"
Ji Lizheng left cursing.
Ji Xiaobei closed the door, and the whole family bent over with laughter.
"No, I was looking for the village head for something, why did he leave?" Ji Xiaobei laughed enough and remembered the business.
She wants to find the village head to buy land so she can grow medicinal herbs.
Shitou ran out of the door quickly and pulled Li Zheng back who had one foot in the house.
"What? You want to buy that wasteland? Bei, that land can't grow crops. Don't mess with it..."
Li Zheng advised kindly, saying everything he could think of.
Lin was sweating as she listened, hoping that the village head could convince her daughter.
Lin felt that what the headman said made sense. In a bad year, if they planted that kind of stuff, they would definitely lose money!
Lin held the five taels of silver in her hand tightly.
"Bei, such a large piece of land is overgrown with weeds and there are a lot of rocks. It's very difficult to clean up. Your family can't cultivate it in a year!"
Haixia was sitting in the room with a book in his hand, unable to read a single word. He felt like he was just a laborer.
Hey! Considering the delicious food, I'll just have to bear with it.
"Village head, I want to hire people to reclaim wasteland. There are so many idle laborers in our village. It will be easy to find people if I pay them some money." Ji Xiaobei said confidently.
She thought Li was worried that she wouldn't be able to find anyone to help with the work.
Lin's heart was tightening even more. She had to pay people to do the work. How much was the two dollars that her eldest daughter mentioned?
She stared at Ji Xiaobei's face, wondering how many sinister thoughts were hidden in this fat face.
I can’t understand, I can’t understand!
"Mr. Village Head, please sell it to me!" Ji Xiaobei pleaded.
Ji Lizheng suddenly stood up and slammed the table and said, "Xiaobei, I can't wait to sell that broken piece of land. I'm just worried that you will lose money. How will you live in the future?"
Li Zheng was really heartbroken, but Lin was such a soft-hearted person that she just let Ji Xiaobei act recklessly and couldn't do anything about it.
The head of the village thought that the first family to starve to death in the village was Ji Xiaobei's.
Ji Xiaobei chuckled, she knew that the head of the village was doing this for her own good.
"Master, this is a really good thing. If your family also grows it, I will buy some for your family when I go to the county."
Ji Lizheng gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll sell it to you. I'll give you a large piece of land at the foot of the mountain, about 15 acres. Don't measure it, no more, no less. Just five taels of silver!"
Thank you, Li Zhengye!" Ji Xiaobei smiled on his generous face.
"Master, don't leave tonight, eat at my house. I bought some pig offal a few days ago and prepared it all. I'll cook it tonight for you to try.
Xiaohua, go call Tiedan and Tieqiu over! Call Uncle Shugen and Aunt Shugen, call the whole family over..."
