Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 230: Taking charge of the family

"Haha, ten taels, all right, you can keep the land for yourself to grow crops. Although the county lady has a large family and great wealth, she is not a fool."

After hearing what Wang Ergou said, Zhao Lizheng sneered.

After saying that, he didn't say any more nonsense, called Zhao Laoer and left.

Wang Ergou and Qi were left standing there dumbfounded.

Lanxiang couldn't bear to watch it any more. Having such parents, she could only bear it and blame herself for having a miserable life!

Seeing that the good thing that was about to happen was ruined by her parents' greed, no matter how hardworking and capable she was, she could not cook without rice.

Lanxiang was filled with a deep sense of powerlessness and helplessness!

In my ears are the angry and frustrated voices of my parents, and in my eyes is the dilapidated and shabby yard!

This can't go on any longer. Lanxiang lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head again, as if she had made some kind of decision.

She suddenly stood up, rushed out of the yard quickly, and caught up with the headman and his son who had already walked a hundred meters.

Zhao Lizheng heard the sound and turned around. Seeing Lanxiang running towards him while shouting "Master, wait a moment", he also stopped and waited for her.

"Lanxiang girl, what's the matter? Have your parents changed their minds again?"

"Grandpa Zhao, I'm the one who makes the decision about this land. I agree to sell it to the Xiao family for only three taels of silver. We're getting a good deal. Thank you, Grandpa Zhao, for taking care of my family."

"But...I'll have to trouble you to wait for a moment while I go back to find the title deed."

"Girl, your parents don't know that you are selling the land. If you sell the land, your parents will not forgive you." Mr. Zhao Lizheng understood. This girl is sensible, but she can't make the decision.

"Grandpa Zhao, I have to make this decision. My family is really struggling, and no matter how hard I try, it won't work on my own."

"Although I'm just a girl, my parents are really... I... I'm a traitor and have become the head of this family."

"I want to buy a good piece of land and learn how to grow potatoes from the county lady. Tiedan is still young and will have to get married in the future. We can't let the villagers laugh at us anymore."

After Lanxiang finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Lizheng and his son with a firm gaze. Her thin body swayed in her loose, baggy, and worn clothes, and Zhao Lizheng couldn't help feeling sad.

Zhao Laoer was also infected by Lanxiang's momentum. He nodded vigorously and said to Lanxiang, "Girl, it's your turn to be the master of this family. You can't let your parents live in confusion any longer. We are waiting for your reply. If there are any difficulties, your village head will take charge!"

Zhao Lizheng rolled his eyes at his silly son and said, "You know how to take on things for me."

However, Lanxiang is a very capable girl. Although girls should obey their fathers at home, Wang Ergou's situation is different. For the sake of the village's reputation and the child, Zhao Lizheng also nodded and agreed.

Lanxiang happily saluted the village head and then ran back.

I don't know what his family said in the end, but it sounded like a commotion. From time to time, I could hear the voices of Wang Ergou and his wife angrily scolding their daughter.

Without mentioning how Lanxiang "persuaded" Wang Ergou and his wife, in the end Lanxiang got the land deed and received the three taels of silver as she wished.

Wang Ergou and his wife did not go to the Xiao family to make trouble.

When Zhao Lizheng came to the Xiao family with the land deed, he also mentioned this matter.

When talking about Lanxiang, Zhao Lizheng couldn't help but sigh at the difficulties faced by this child, and Liu also felt a little sorry for her daughter's experience.

When Xiao Wan learned about this, she was very impressed by Lanxiang. She refused to succumb to fate and was diligent and motivated. She knew that she had to rely on herself to change her destiny instead of just waiting numbly.

As a fellow woman, Xiao Wan admired her very much. It would be nice to recruit this girl to be her assistant.

Then she expressed to the village head her wish to recruit Lanxiang to work, and Zhao Lizheng was surprised and happy.

Lanxiang works with Xiao Wan, and her future life may be better, and she may even find a good husband.

Even her parents should agree to let their daughter come to work, after all, others can't get in even if they want to.

Zhao Lizheng thanked Xiao Wan on behalf of Lanxiang, and then began to talk about expanding the workshop.

Now that Wang Ergou’s family has obtained the land deed, the workshop must start operations immediately.

It is easy to find people to do the work. There are many strong laborers in the village, and villagers will definitely be given priority for doing odd jobs.

The expansion of the workshop is still handled by the workers who built the workshop at that time. As for trivial matters such as hiring people to do the work, someone still needs to take care of it.

"Since my second brother and second sister-in-law think highly of me, I won't be polite to him in the future." Xiao Wan smiled and looked at Zhao Laoer who was sitting next to the head of the village.
