The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman
Chapter 49 Buying a Field
Su He slept soundly while holding Miaomiao in her arms. She was woken up by Zhou early the next morning. It turned out that it was Wang Qingshan's family next door who came to call someone.
"I heard that the whole family didn't sleep all night yesterday, and they were in a mess discussing the division of the family property. You should eat quickly, because you will go to the next door to discuss the purchase of land. The village chief has already gone there."
Zhou handed Su He a meat bun. It was made yesterday and could be eaten after heating it up today.
Su He was full after eating just one. She had eaten enough oily food yesterday and she wasn’t very hungry in the morning.
After eating, Su He followed his grandfather to the next door. This was the first time Su He visited a neighbor since moving to Liushu Village.
It was still dark at this time, probably half past six at most.
On the right hand side of the entrance is the kitchen, which is as lively as a vegetable market. Su He glanced around and saw at least thirty or forty people inside, men and women of all ages, all eating breakfast. Perhaps they were about to separate, as everyone had a happy look on their face.
The second room on the left side of the gate is the house of Wang Qingshan's father, Wang Dashu. After entering the house, Su He found that the village chief was already drinking sugar water inside.
"Daming, here she comes. This is your granddaughter He Hua."
"Brother Dashu, yes, my granddaughter wants to buy a piece of land. How is the discussion going with your sister-in-law?"
After asking, grandpa greeted the village chief and Su He followed suit.
"Alas, we have been neighbors for decades. I am not afraid of you making fun of me. I really don't want to separate."
Su He moved a stool and sat beside to listen. She felt speechless. She already had great-grandchildren but still didn't divide the family. What was he thinking?
"Brother, if you don't divide it this time, it will be the same in two years. Besides, several of your grandchildren's wives are pregnant. How can you live here if you delay it any longer?"
"Yes, Dashu, let's split it up this time. What did you discuss with your sister-in-law yesterday? Don't delay any more. I didn't come here so early to hear you sighing here."
Village chief Wang's tone was a little impatient. This family had been splitting up for more than ten years, and he had come here dozens of times. He was really tired.
He is tired of drinking the sweet soup from Wang Dashu's house.
Wang Dashu couldn't even straighten his back when he thought about splitting up the family business. "Split, split!"
After a while, Wang Dashu's six sons and daughters-in-law arrived.
Originally, everyone had to be present for the division of the family property, but the house was not big enough, so there was no choice but for each family to send a representative.
"Go call your mother, and we will separate today."
Upon hearing this, the eldest daughter-in-law Qian immediately turned around and went to the kitchen to find her mother-in-law.
Qian came in with tears in her eyes.
"Why are you crying? Even if the family is divided, they will not ignore us. Take out the money from the house."
Wang Dashu figured it out and told his wife to get the money.
When Su He saw that there was gossip to be seen, he immediately shrank into the corner.
"The family has a total of 238 taels of silver. Because the eldest son will take care of him in his old age, this blue brick and tile house will be left to the Qingshan family. The family silver is divided per person. As long as they are of the family's bloodline, they will get it, including those who are already pregnant. The Qingshan family has 8, the Qingshui family has 14, the Qingtian family has 11, the Qinghe family has 15, the Qingwen family has 10, and the Qinghe family has 9. 6 taels per person for boys and 3 taels per person for girls."
Wang Dashu took a sip of sugar water and continued, "There are 23 boys and 40 girls in the family, and there are 4 more in the belly, so I'll give you 4 taels in between, a total of 274 taels."
After this was said, the sons looked at each other, and finally the eldest brother Qingshan asked, "Dad, there are not so many girls in the family. Half of them are married off. Do these count?"
"Even if she gets married, she is still our family's bloodline. You won't be satisfied with how I divide it anyway. So just do as I say."
Wang Dashu glared at his eldest son and continued, "I'll give another 3 taels to the grandsons who haven't married yet, and I won't care about the great-grandsons. So there are still 7 left, so I'll add another 21 taels."
"The total is 295 taels."
"I don't have enough money at home, so I plan to sell my land. Chief, I plan to sell 20 mu of land, 10 mu of first-class land and 10 mu of second-class land. Now the first-class land is 7 taels and 5 cents per mu, and the second-class land is 4 taels and 5 cents. I'm in a hurry to sell it, so if you buy a lot, I can lower the price a little bit."
After Wang Dashu finished speaking, he turned around and stared at his grandfather, "Daming, how many acres do you want to buy?"
Grandpa looked at Su He subconsciously, and everyone in the room turned their eyes to Su He.
At the critical moment, Su He did not let down his guard, "Grandpa Dashu, I only want 10 acres of land close to my grandpa's fields."
“That’s the first-class field.”
Uncle Wang was a little disappointed, as he had expected Su He to buy them all.
Although he did not go out, he heard that the granddaughter of Wang Daming next door was quite capable and had a mule and a horse carriage. He often smelled meat in the past month, so he thought she must have some family background.
Wang Daming nodded. The money he brought was enough. It was still early today, so maybe he could go to the county government to get the stamp and exchange the land deed.
"However, Grandpa Dashu, I heard that your family plans to leave this house to Uncle Qingshan, and the other uncles will use it to build other houses. Do you intend to sell part of this house?"
Selling a house?
Wang Dashu hadn't thought it through and hadn't figured out the land issue yet, so why was he talking about selling the house?
"Lotus, do you mean you want to buy a house?"
Su He had already had an idea. Since the relatives on her grandfather's side were getting along well, it would be best for the three siblings to settle down nearby. The best house nearby was the one next door, and she didn't ask for much. Half an acre of land would be enough.
"Yes, Grandpa Village Chief, you know that there are only three siblings in our family. Mutou is grown up after all. Considering the future, I also want to buy a house for him to start a family. He can't live in his uncle's house after he gets married."
"Da Shu, are you selling this?"
Village chief Wang knew that Wang Dashu was selling his land to raise money for the division of the family business, so he must be willing to sell less land now.
"Sell it! My husband and I and Qingshan's family can't live in so many houses, so we can sell them for money."
When it comes to selling the house, the sons and daughters-in-law are very happy. They have no share in the old house, so it would be great to sell it for money, and they can also get more land.
"Lotus, how big do you want to buy?"
"I want to live near my grandfather's house. I think this is the kitchen and woodshed of Grandpa Dashu's house. Village chief, I only need to buy half an acre of land. I don't want anything from the old house. I'll just buy a foundation and build a house when the weather warms up."
Su He had enough money and didn't want these old bricks. It would be troublesome to calculate the money, so he just treated it as buying a foundation.
Su He dislikes old bricks, but Wang Dashu's family doesn't, especially since they are going to build a house after the New Year and can't afford old bricks.
“Lotus, this residential land is different from wasteland. Although you are only buying a foundation, the price is more expensive than wasteland.
Su He nodded in approval. The village chief was fair in his dealings, and she was not going to waste time bargaining with him.
Village Chief Wang and Wang Dashu lowered their heads to discuss for a while and came to an agreement, "Hehua, since you only want a foundation, then I'll give you 1 tael of silver."
so cheap?
Su He was quite satisfied. This was the best result.
"Hehua girl, I want to ask you one more thing. My family has 5 mu of second-class farmland near your grandfather's house. Do you want it? If you do, I can give it to you at a discount."
"I wonder how much silver Grandpa Qingshu sold it for?"
When Wang Dashu heard that there was a way, he said excitedly, "We are old neighbors. Grandpa will not cheat you. If I am not in a hurry to sell, people will rush to buy my first-class land for 8 taels of silver. 7 taels for first-class land, and 4 taels for second-class land, a total of 90 taels, what do you think?"
Su He and her grandfather looked at each other and agreed. The price was not very cheap, but the three siblings had just arrived and they would have to live with their neighbors for a long time, so they couldn't pay too much back.
"Let's do as Grandpa Dashu said. Village Chief, can the ownership be transferred today? I'll feel more at ease if it's transferred earlier."
"Hey... Lotus, the land you bought is for the kitchen, which is used every day. Can you give us some extra time?"
Su He frowned. This was unexpected. "I'm not in a hurry for one or two months. How about transferring the ownership today and lending the house to you? I want to build a house when the weather warms up, so you can move out before then."
After the people in the room had a friendly discussion, Grandpa, Wang Dashu and the village chief decided on the spot to go to the government office to sign the contract first. Wang Bin would drive the car, Shunzi would also learn to drive the car, and Su He wanted to let Mu Tou go and see it as well, so she asked him to follow along.
Su He had no intention of going. The fields and foundations were all written with the names of the wood. She gave her grandfather 20 more taels of silver and went back to the house to sleep.
