Reborn with super powers: The general wants to repay his kindness
Chapter 160 Taking back the ancestral property
Li Dong didn't take these things seriously. He had to develop a thick skin when walking outside. He turned around and carefully took out the rosewood carved box from the carriage and said with a smile: "This eldest brother, my lady knows the house." Miss Li is getting married and she specially asked me to come here to add makeup. Are you sure you won't let me in? Your master won't blame her in the end? "
The concierge had long heard that this family came from a mountain village, and the look of ridicule on his face was very obvious. Is it possible that such a family can come up with rare things that even their Qian Mansion can't get? "I will bear the blame myself. Don't keep coming. Master will not see you."
Li Dongqin did not show embarrassment or anger because of his words, but looked at him with a half-smile... Behind him, coincidentally, there was a group of people rushing out from behind, and one of them was beside Mr. Qian. I've seen him before, he's the steward of the Qian Mansion.
The housekeeper of the Qian Mansion also recognized Li Dong who was negotiating with the concierge at the door of the residence. Although he was not as exposed as the concierge, he was obviously a little impatient to see Li Dong appear.
"The housekeeper stayed, and Li Dong brought something to add makeup to the lady in the house. However, the concierge said that Mr. Qian was busy with work and had no time to see the villain." Seeing that the housekeeper left without paying attention to his plan, Li Dong hurriedly spoke out. Leaving someone behind, he held the box and opened it in front of the housekeeper, only to quickly close it after only a moment.
The housekeeper originally heard that there were some rare things coming to the Jinyu Pavilion in the county, and was about to go and have a look at it as entrusted by the master. Everyone in the house attaches great importance to this marriage. It is important for the young lady to marry her in a dignified manner, so that she can be married in the future. If you stand firm over there, Qian Mansion will not be looked down upon.
He had the same attitude as the concierge, he didn't think Li Dong could really come up with anything that would tempt the master, but just a casual glance left him stunned.
Seeing Li Dong closing the box and turning around to leave, he quickly called out: "Little brother, stay here."
"It's because the servants in the mansion neglected my little brother without realizing it. Well... little brother, can you let me take another look at the thing in your hand..."
Li Dong turned around and smiled, holding the box and sending it forward: "Of course, the housekeeper can also bring it into the house for Master Qian to take a look."
The steward of the Qian Mansion directly opened a crack in the box with Li Dong's hand and took a peek inside. His eyes suddenly showed light and joy, and he said excitedly: "Please come quickly, please come inside quickly. These are the things that have no eyesight." The eye cannot see the mountain." With that, he pulled Li Dong into the house, leaving the scolded concierge confused. What was going on?
What was in that box made the butler look like he was a different person? He was just following the butler's instructions!
The steward of the Qian Mansion asked Li Dong to wait outside, and he went inside with the box in his hands. Mr. Qian, Mrs. Qian Mansion, and Miss Qian were all there. Miss Qian married into a high family, and the dowry was too light for fear that she would be looked down upon by her husband's family, so here she is. Shi Zheng was complaining to his parents.
When they saw the box the housekeeper brought, Miss Qian's eyes lit up.She stepped forward and carefully took out the contents. On the way, Li Dong introduced to the housekeeper that the bottle could be opened and emitted a strange fragrance, so the housekeeper reminded her. After Miss Qian opened the lid, the room was immediately filled with fragrance.
And this is only a second-class perfume in Li Cheng's hand, and Li Cheng doesn't like the smell.
"Dad, I want this glass vase! Don't the Li family just want to change to that Zhuangzi? That Zhuangzi is far away from the place where I want to marry, so I asked dad to change it to a closer one. Dad, you and that guy He said, I want this glass vase. If he wants Zhuangzi, give it to him. Anyway, the vase must be kept." Madam Qian, who was sitting next to her, also nodded to Master Qian, and Master Qian had no choice but to get up and go out.
This kind of exquisite glass vase is indeed rare, and someone who doesn't want it can actually produce it. It seems that Zhuangzi is determined to get it.
"Brother Li." Mr. Qian only knew the name of the visitor after the butler reminded him. When he said he wanted to buy Zhuangzi for his daughter's dowry, Mr. Qian still thought about beating him out. Now that he thought about it, luckily he didn't really do that.
"Thank you so much, little brother Li, for sending me such a generous gift. I will surely satisfy you for the money you ask for."
Li Dong also said politely: "Thank you so much, Mr. Qian. This Zhuangzi was handed down from my miss's ancestors. Because it was taken away by thieves before, my miss wants to take back the ancestral property, so she bothered her several times before. Now I’m really grateful for the money I can give you.”
"Tell the steward to bring Zhuangzi's land deed." Li Dong spoke appropriately, completely unlike what they thought he was from a Zhuangzi family, and Master Qian felt that he had underestimated him.
When he first bought that Zhuangzi, he also inquired about it and knew that the former owner had a shady background.Originally I was still wondering why this person wanted to buy the village, and I still had some doubts. Now it is no longer surprising. After all, taking back the ancestral property is also an explanation to the ancestors.
Besides, Zhuangzi was just to pay for his daughter's dowry. Apart from collecting rent, he had never been there on weekdays.Now being able to exchange for such an object is a huge gain.
When Li Dong came out again, the porter saw the butler sending the person out with a smile on his face and politely. He personally put him into the carriage and watched the person leave, then turned around and went back to the house. Naturally, the porter received another lesson.
Not to mention how much admiration the glass vase in Sister Qian's dowry would attract from others and her husband's family, Li Cheng was also very satisfied when he saw the property deed that Li Dong brought back across Ming Road.
After collecting the property deed, Li Cheng and Li Dong went to Zhuangzi.The head of the village in Zhuangzi has received the news that Zhuangzi has changed its owner again.
The head of the village was promoted from the original tenant farmers and was responsible for the internal and external affairs of the village. Speaking of it, he was still an old man in the hands of the Yu family. He was very familiar with his old boss, shopkeeper Yu, and it was easy to follow him. But later It has changed two owners in ten years.
Compared with the old boss Yu, the land rent paid to the boss for farming by tenants has increased by [-] to [-]%, which is a big burden for the tenant farmers. Many people still miss the time when their old boss was here.
"Zhuangtou, has the owner really changed again? How much rent will the owner charge this time? You can't raise it any higher, otherwise the food left in the house won't be enough for the children." It doesn't matter if the adults tighten their belts, but the children I'm still growing and I can't get hungry.
"After my old employer left, the Zhao family raised the rent from the original [-]% to [-]%. They said it was the Zhao family's rule. Later, the Qian family raised the rent by half a percent. Fortunately, there have been no famines in the past few years. Otherwise, people will be driven to death. The old boss back then was kind-hearted. Including taxes, he usually only charged [-]% of the rent. When the harvest was not good, it only took [-]%. In years of famine, he even took care of our farmers. "
"No, there are not many good people like my old club anymore. By the way! Zhuangtou, why do you hear people say that the descendants of our old club are back? There were people who visited the grave of our old club before."
Zhuangtou was a man in his forties or fifty, with a beard and a sad look on his face. He waved his hand and said: "If you ask me, I don't know. I only know that my boss is a young lady, but someone has indeed visited my old boss's grave." , at the end of the year I wanted to go to the grave and found out that someone had been there.”
"Zhuangtou, there is a carriage coming outside. Is the new owner here?" Someone ran in and shouted, and Zhuangtou quickly took someone out to greet him.
The concierge had long heard that this family came from a mountain village, and the look of ridicule on his face was very obvious. Is it possible that such a family can come up with rare things that even their Qian Mansion can't get? "I will bear the blame myself. Don't keep coming. Master will not see you."
