Chapter 21: Buying the Bamboo House Foundation
Chen Qingxin smiled sweetly and stuffed the oil paper bag in his hand into Liu Zou's hand:
"Aunt Zou, these are the meat buns I bought when I went to town to sell my game today. Please have a try with the village chief, my brothers and sisters."
Liu Zou took the oil paper bag and felt that it was still hot, so she smiled with a big smile:
"Hey, girl, you just came here, but why did you bring such expensive things? What should I do? Your family is not doing well right now, so you should take it back and give it to your mother, brothers, and sisters."
After saying this, he swallowed involuntarily and reluctantly pushed the oil paper bag back.
This is such a difficult choice.
It was a bit hard to bear for her to push the food away when it was about to reach her mouth.
However, the little girl's family also had a hard time, and there was no need for her to compete for food with orphans and their widowed mother.
"Aunt, since you brought it here, it means you are sincere. If you are too polite, it will seem a bit awkward."
Chen Qingxin patted her arm and continued, "Okay, you can give it to Limin, Lijia brothers, and Sister Lizhu to try.
You and the village chief also have two, two each, no cheating, hehe!"
The smile on Liu Zou's face deepened a lot: "Okay, okay! Auntie will listen to the new girl. Your uncle Liu is in the main hall, do you need Auntie to take you there?"
Chen Qingxin smiled and waved at her: "We can go by ourselves. You go about your business."
Entering the main hall, the village chief was sitting in the main seat.
Seeing the two siblings enter the room, he waved and said, "New girl, Wen boy, come on, come on, please sit down!"
Chen Qingwen bowed to the village chief as a junior: "Thank you, Uncle Village Chief!"
Chen Qingxin bowed slightly and explained his purpose: "Uncle Village Chief, may I ask if my family's household registration has been processed?"
The village chief took out the severance document and the newly obtained household registration certificate from his sleeve:
"I was planning to send it over tomorrow, but I came back a little late today, so it's inconvenient for me to call and bother you. You came just in time, so you can take it back, and it will save me from having to make another trip."
Chen Qingxin took it with both hands: "Thank you! I am sorry to bother you this time because I have something to discuss with the village chief."
Liu Donglai frowned slightly, his sharp eyes were full of scrutiny and inquiry.
Chen Qingxin straightened up, looked at the village chief, and said sincerely:
"Uncle Village Chief, I want to buy my broken bamboo house and foundation, as well as the wasteland next to it. How much is it?"
Village chief Liu was shocked. It turned out that he was overthinking. The other party did not come to complain to him, the head of the village.
So, he asked with an unnatural expression: "New girl, do you mean to buy the house and the foundation?"
Chen Qingxin nodded solemnly:
"Uncle Village Chief, you know that our family has been driven out of the old house since Dad disappeared.
Thanks to you for taking pity on us mother and children and arranging us to live in the bamboo house so we didn't freeze to death.
But the bamboo house is the property of the village after all, and now the roof is leaking in many places and is in urgent need of repair.
What if after we repair it, someone else says it belongs to the village and demands its return?
I didn’t want the village chief to be in a difficult position, so I decided to buy it.”
The village chief frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "You can buy it. The bamboo house is not worth much. Even if it's 1 tael of silver, and the 2 mu of land, that's 2 taels, a total of 3 taels of silver. Do you have that much?"
Chen Qingxin was very happy, and hurriedly stood up and bowed to the village chief:
"Don't worry, village chief. Xin'er still has this little bit of money."
Seeing Liu Cunzi's face full of question marks, Chen Qingxin could only explain:
"Here's what happened. Yesterday I went to the mountains to pick wild vegetables. Luckily, I found a dead tiger cub.
I took it to the county town today and sold it for some money. I hope the village chief can keep this a secret for me.
Money is attractive to people. Although I am not afraid of troubles, I don’t want to be bothered by troubles all day long. "
The village chief was stunned by her words. After a long while, he twitched his lips:
"You? You are really lucky, girl! You should be frugal when you have money. After all, there are five people in the family to live."
Chen Qingxin bowed again: "Thank you for your teachings, village chief uncle! Qingxin has made a note of it! I want to buy the wasteland near my home, cultivate it, and grow some food. What do you think?"
Village Chief Liu was surprised again: "Girl, the registered wasteland is 15 acres, but the actual area is 20 acres. Others don't know this.
After you buy it, try to fence it off and cultivate it to prevent others from noticing anything.
15 mu of wasteland is 15 taels, plus the house and the foundation, 18 taels will be enough. "
Chen Qingxin handed the village chief a 20-liang silver note and said, "The rest is for you to handle the formalities. Thank you for your help!"
The village chief wanted to be polite, but was persuaded by Chen Qingxin.
After writing a receipt and drafting the land deed and house deed, the village chief just needs to go to the county to stamp them the next day.
Chen Qingxin and his sister left the village chief's house happily, carrying the severance documents, household registration certificates, and proof of house and land purchase.
Village Chief Liu looked at the backs of the brother and sister as they walked away, and sighed with emotion: "A good father will have a good daughter. Guanghui, your soul in heaven can rest in peace!"
In a military camp a hundred miles away from Kaoshan Village, the instructor who was teaching the soldiers how to draw the bow and shoot arrows sneezed several times in a row!
"Mom, we're back!" Chen Qingwen shouted at the door, afraid of scaring someone by pushing the door open suddenly.
"Xin'er, Wen'er, is everything going well?" Chen Li asked hopefully.
Chen Qingxin took out the documents and household registration: "Dangdangdangdang! Xin'er is here, one is worth two, hehe."
Chen Li took it and took a closer look. Her eyes were red with joy.
"With these, we will never suffer from hunger or cold again.
When my mother is free, she can bring some embroidery work home to supplement the income.”
Chen Qingxin held her hand and said, "My mother is really capable! We can discuss this later. It's getting late now. We should take a shower and rest."
"Mom and Ying'er have finished washing. There's hot water in the pot for you and Wen'er."
"I'll go get some hot water for my elder sister." Chen Qingying said, and ran to get some water, but her elder sister called her back, "Ying'er, wait a minute."
Then he took out a piece of dark cloth, cut it horizontally with scissors, tore off a small strip, cut it into two pieces, and then tied them at both ends of the large piece of cloth.
"Mother, you hold the other end. We'll temporarily set up a bathing area at the corner. We'll also put the toilet there at night to prevent us from having to run outside to use the toilet in the middle of the night. It's too unsafe.
Everyone else thought using cloth as a partition was a bit extravagant, but no one raised any objections.
The mother and daughter tied the cloth strips to the bamboo wall so that the curtain dragged on the ground.
Anyway, except for Chen Li, the rest of their family are children, who are not tall and can completely block the view.
Each person has a separate bathtub, and after use, the towel is placed on the wooden tub.
The wooden basins were neatly placed in a row against the bamboo wall, looking a bit strange.
into the night.
Mother, brother and sister all fell asleep.
Perhaps because of the new bedding, everyone slept soundly.
Chen Qingxin lay on the bed with his eyes open, thinking about something.
Should I demolish the bamboo house when building a new house?
