“Hey, what are you guys talking about? ” Grandma Zhou brought a small bench. When she saw an empty space, she put down the bench and sat down. “Everyone was chatting so enthusiastically.”
When they saw Grandma Zhou, everyone smiled and turned to her. “We’re just talking about whether we should sell our land to Yuelan. Sister Zhou, do you have any ideas?”
The villagers had no idea why the village chief’s family was so biased towards Lin Yuelan. Even when Lin Mingqing’s accident happened, Lin Yiwei and his wife didn’t blame the jinx. They even helped her from time to time.
However, they also believed that the village chief was fair. He wouldn’t put everyone’s safety in danger.
Grandma Zhou waved her hand and chuckled. “What ideas can I have? My family’s matters are all decided by my old man. Before I came here, he took out all the land deeds of the old house from the drawer and decided to sell them to Lan ‘Er.”
“Auntie Zhou, how much land do you have over there?” A young wife asked curiously.
Grandma Zhou wrote, “not much, just two mu of land. I should be able to exchange it for 35 or 36 taels.”
When they heard that two mu of land could be exchanged for more than thirty taels, some people were once again tempted.
Thirty taels could buy two to three mu of high-grade fields.
In other words, they could exchange two Mu of barren lands for two or three mu of high-grade farmland.
“Sister Zhou, are you sure? What if you sell the land to that girl and get jinxed by her?”
This was the concern of these middle-aged and elderly people.
However, Grandma Zhou shook her head and said, “it’s all because of our Kang ‘Er. As soon as he heard about this issue, he immediately took the title deed and ran to Lan ‘Er’s house. Fortunately, we pulled him back and promised him that we would sell the land to Lan ‘Er.”
Her Kang ‘Er was only three years old.
When middle-aged and elderly people heard this, they were a little surprised. They thought for a while.
The young people didn’t quite understand and said in surprise, “Auntie Zhou, you decided to sell the land to the girl just because Kang ‘Er did that? This is too reckless, right?”
Grandma Zhou immediately said to them seriously, “this isn’t recklessness. Although Kang Kang is only three, old people say that children under three are guided by God. Since Kang Kang said that he wanted us to give the title deed to the girl, it meant that God supported Kang Kang.”
The atmosphere became a little quiet.
Then, one of them stood up and said, “It’s already so late. I’ll go back to sleep first. You guys continue chatting.”
“Hey, wait for me. I’m going back too.”
People were leaving one after another, but those with eyes would notice that most of these people who left in a hurry were families with children under the age of three.
That night, a few more families knocked on Lin Yiwei’s door.
The next day, Lin Yiwei went to find Lin Yuelan. “Lan ‘Er, these are the land deeds that we received yesterday. There are more than twenty mu of land and more than ten families.”
Lin Yuelan took the title deeds, looked at them, and said to Lin Yiwei gratefully, “Grandpa village chief, thank you!” Lin Yiwei smiled and said, “girl, it’s too early to thank me. Most of the villagers still won’t sell their land. I’m afraid we still have some work to do.”
Lin Yuelan smiled and said, “Grandpa village chief, I still have to thank you. It’s been hard on you these two days.” Lin Yiwei had been so busy helping her, so she definitely had to thank him.
Lin Yiwei said worriedly, “girl, you’re paying such a high price to buy these lands. And that’s just buying the land. You will need to spend a few thousand taels on building the house and the wall. Do you have enough money?”
The four hundred taels that Lin Yuelan gave him had almost all been used up.
“Hey, what are you guys talking about? ” Grandma Zhou brought a small bench. When she saw an empty space, she put down the bench and sat down. “Everyone was chatting so enthusiastically.”
