The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

He Lizheng was still a little worried about Gu Qinghuai, but seeing her firm attitude, he said, "Okay, after the village meeting, I will go to the county government to ask. You should also think about it again in the next few days and be cautious."

"Okay, thank you Uncle He," Gu Qinghuai said with a smile, "Also, Uncle He, I want to buy another 1,000 acres of wasteland, preferably one that is connected in one piece."

These words frightened everyone again.

Zhao Ying was puzzled: "Huai'er, didn't you say that farming doesn't yield much, so we don't farm?"

The few acres of land at home have become barren again, and the weeds are taller than the crops.

Gu Qinghuai smiled and said, "Mom, if we farm when we have no money, we will become poorer and poorer, because farming will take up all our energy and depend on the weather. The only income for the family is not guaranteed. If we have a certain amount of capital, it will be different. We don't need to farm by ourselves, we can hire people, so we can free up time to make more money."

In fact, Gu Qinghuai’s ultimate goal of making money in business is to grow grain, buy grain, and store grain.

After returning from the apocalypse, she was really hungry.

Before the end of the world, no one expected that disaster would come suddenly, so even after traveling to the Great Xia Kingdom, she still maintained a strong sense of crisis.

Her space must be filled with food and thick clothes. Only in this way can she feel safe.

Rice, flour, beans, meat, vegetables, fruits, anything edible, she stored them.

Save as many cotton-padded clothes and quilts as you have.

All the Meng family members nodded repeatedly, indicating that they had learned something.

They will do the same thing in the future. Whatever Xiao Huai does, they will do the same.

In short, you can never go wrong if you follow Xiao Huai.

He Lizheng's heart suddenly brightened.

Will he do some business in the future?

Zhao Ying suddenly realized: "Huai'er is right, then we can hire people to farm the land." This way, the soap business would not be affected.

Recently, they have been producing more than 30,000 bars of soap every day, but they can't keep up with the sales speed. The soap business cannot be delayed at all.

"Yes, Huai'er, Dad doesn't have any other skills, but he is good at farming. Dad will help you in the future!" Gu Heng was full of confidence.

"Okay, thank you, Dad and Mom," Gu Qinghuai was very pleased.

He Lizheng thought for a while and said, "Huai girl, there is a large piece of wasteland outside the slope in the northwest of the village. It is adjacent to Qingyun Peak in the north and the hilltop you want to buy in the east. The location is very good. The only drawback is that to the northwest is Ma Ti Mountain, where there is a bandit nest called Longhuzhai. If the bandits come, the first place they enter is your 1,000 acres of wasteland. Because of this, no one dared to take that piece of wasteland, so a large piece was left. In the past, we in Tuniu Village were all exiled prisoners, and the sites for building the village were all those that others had chosen and didn't want..."

Gu Qinghuai said firmly: "Okay, I want that piece, please measure it as soon as possible, Uncle He."

It is too late to make it in time for autumn ploughing, so it is best to clear the wasteland before spring ploughing.

He Lizheng nodded in astonishment and said, "Okay, I'll do my best."

He didn't expect that Huai girl actually bought that piece of land.

Qinghe County is vast and sparsely populated, with a lot of wasteland, but only that piece of land is connected, enough for one thousand acres.

Finally, Gu Qinghuai bought a large piece of residential land and planned to build a six-story courtyard.

He Lizheng and Luo were shocked again. Gu Qinghuai's generosity really exceeded their imagination.

They both realized in their hearts that Gu Laosi's family had truly risen from the ground.

After discussing the matter, Gu Qinghuai got up and went to the toilet.

He Jinrou immediately stood up and said, "Sister Xiaohuai, I want to go too. It's too dark. Let me help you go."

Gu Qinghuai glanced at her and chuckled, "Sure, thank you, Sister Jinrou."

He Jinrou forced a smile and walked forward to hold her arm.

Gu Qinghuai was very disgusted by being held so intimately by someone who had ulterior motives and did not really care about her.

If it wasn't for He Lizheng's sake, she would have directly shaken off He Jinrou's hand.

Gu Qinghuai calmly withdrew his arm, took the lantern from Lingzhi's hand, and handed it to He Jinrou, "Sister Jinrou, please hold the lantern for me."

Gu Qinghuai pulled his elbow away, and He Jinrou's face froze for a moment. She keenly realized that Gu Qinghuai didn't like her and was deliberately distancing himself from her.

But when Gu Qinghuai and Meng Wuchou were together, Meng Wuchou also held her arm, and they seemed very close. Why couldn't it be the same when it came to me?

She really wanted to have a good relationship with Gu Qinghuai, especially after hearing that she was buying mountains and land.

He Jinrou concealed the unnaturalness on her face, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll get the lantern, Sister Xiaohuai, please watch your feet."

After the two of them walked out of the inner courtyard, He Jinrou whispered: "Sister Xiaohuai, there are some things I don't know whether I should say or not."

"Then don't talk about it," Gu Qinghuai didn't want to listen to her nonsense.

He Jinrou was choked. She bit her lip and pretended to be worried and said, "Sister Xiaohuai, I'm worried that your reputation will be damaged. Let me talk to you alone after we go to the toilet."

Gu Qinghuai went straight into the toilet without answering.

When they came out again, He Jinrou walked forward and said in a low voice: "Sister Xiaohuai, it's...that...uh, isn't Zhao Xiaoshi with you all day? There are rumors in the village that you have an improper relationship. Sister Xiaohuai, for your reputation, I think it's better for you to stay away from Zhao Xiaoshi."

Gu Qinghuai curled the corners of his lips, looked directly into He Jinrou's eyes in the light of the lantern, and said coldly: "Sister Jinrou, who in the village told you this? Tell me, and I will take you to confront him face to face tomorrow."

"I..." He Jinrou opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

She didn't expect Gu Qinghuai to do this.

She hadn't heard from the villagers, so how could she tell who it was? She said this just to get Gu Qinghuai to stay away from Zhao Xiaoshi and stop pestering him all the time.

However, this question could still be fooled. She forced a smile and said, "Others may just be joking. I naturally cannot reveal their names. This will make our relationship very awkward. I'm just worried about Sister Xiaohuai, so I wanted to remind her not to take it to heart."

Gu Qinghuai curled the corners of his lips, his eyes emitting coldness: "Sister Jinrou can't say who it is, so I can only suspect that these rumors were spread by Sister Jinrou herself."

He Jinrou's cheeks flushed, and she pretended to be sad and said, "Sister Xiaohuai, how could you miss me so much? How could I do such a thing? I just wanted to care about you, but I didn't expect that you... not only did you not appreciate it, but you also slandered me like this!"

Gu Qinghuai sneered: "He Jinrou, what's going on between me and Zhao Xiaoshi has nothing to do with you. I don't care whether there are rumors or not. You know best in your heart whether you really want good for me, don't treat me like a fool!

I advise you not to perform in front of me in the future. As soon as you appear on stage, I can see through you thoroughly.

For Uncle He's sake, I won't expose you. If you really like Zhao Xiaoshi, if you have the guts, just dance in front of him. Don't be so cowardly as to target an innocent person like me. I'm not easy to mess with! Don't mess with me!"
