Chapter 24 This man is too sharp

"No, I don't want to know at all." Xiao Sanlang refused with a straight face.

Su Yue smiled, picked up a leaf and wrapped the leech.

"Let's go, go home."

Xiao Sanlang looked at Su Yue deeply and followed silently.

Brother Yu has woken up and is playing in the yard.

Feng had already cut the fabric according to the size required by Su Yue and was about to sew it, but he was shocked to see the two of them coming back in mud.

"Why did you do this? I'll boil water for you."

She put down her needle and went to the kitchen.

Brother Yu glanced at Su Yue, pulled Xiao Sanlang curiously and asked, "Dad, where have you been?"

"Go out for a walk, and accidentally fell into the mud."

Brother Yu was confused, obviously not understanding why such a big person could fall into the mud.

"Where did the mud fall? How did it fall into it?"

"Why didn't I see mud in the village?"

Yu Ge'er, who is less than four years old, is in the curiosity stage of 100,000 whys.

"Little guy, show you something good."

Su Yue walked over with her hands behind her back and "stretched her hand."

When Brother Yu heard that there was something good, he quickly stretched out his hand, "What is it?...ahhhhh, insect...daddy...daddy...ahhhhhhh..."

When the little guy saw the black bug in his palm, he was so scared that he shook his arms, jumped on the high ground and took three steps back, plunged into Xiao Sanlang's arms and cried loudly.

"Coward." Su Yue chuckled.

"Su Yue!" Xiao Sanlang rubbed his forehead helplessly.

Su Yue put away her smile, pinched the leech and shook it, "It's dead, what are you afraid of?"

Brother Yu quietly opened his eyes and looked at Su Yue.

"Dad?"

He didn't believe in Su Yue and asked his father for confirmation.

Xiao Sanlang touched his head, "Really, he is dead."

Su Yue took a step forward.

Brother Yu looked at the black bug, subconsciously shook, and shrank into Xiao Sanlang's arms again.

"This bug is of great use, especially good medicinal materials. Can you eat meat every day? It depends on it." Su Yue held the leech and shook in front of Brother Yu'er's eyes.

Xiao Sanlang looked at Su Yue with thoughtful eyes.

Brother Yu was both scared and curious.

He can eat meat every day by relying on insects?

Finally, curiosity overcame fear, Brother Yu opened his eyes and looked at the leech carefully.

"It is called leeches. If dried, it can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, reduce swelling and relieve pain. If you take it away, dry it and sell it to you." Su Yue said.

Brother Yu'er's eyes are brighter. Can he make money?

He mustered up the courage to take the leech and put it in his palm.

The little hand was trembling. After a while, he saw that the leech was indeed motionless, and he couldn't help but show two rows of millet teeth happily.

"It's really dead."

Su Yue knocked on his head, "Look clearly when encountering things in the future, don't be crying at any time."

Yu Ge'er made a face at her and made a correction in her heart: She really loves scary paper tigers.

.........

Su Yue took a shower, changed her clothes, and Feng took Brother Yu out to play.

She knocked on Xiao Sanlang's door.

Xiao Sanlang had already changed into a light blue cloth dress and was reading a book in front of the window. His posture was straight and straight, with a gentlemanly and gentle smell.

"Please accompany me to Lizheng's house."

Xiao Sanlang put down the book and turned to read it, "You want to buy the pond in the village."

It's a tone of affirmation.

Su Yue's eyes showed appreciation. This man was so keen that he could see through his meaning in just one or two words.

"You have to live your life. You said that Yu Ge'er and Xiao Wu both need money to study."

Xiao Sanlang lowered his eyes to cover the complex emotions in his eyes, "Okay."

Su Yue went to the kitchen to pick up half a pheasant and a pound of candy came out.

Xiao Sanlang didn't say anything, silently took it and held it himself.

Li Zheng’s family is in the center of the village. According to seniority, Xiao Sanlang should call him uncle.

When Wu, the wife of Lizheng, saw the two of them coming, she looked a little unnatural, "Sanlang, stupid... Well, Su, why are you here?"

Before, Brother Yu fell into the water. She helped Zhao scold Su Yue, but finally found out that Zhao had stole the money from her family and deliberately pushed Brother Yu to fall into the water.

Wu always felt that she was superior in the village, and this incident made her feel embarrassed and she didn't go out to meet anyone for two or three days.

She thought Su Yue and Xiao Sanlang came to the door because Brother Yu fell into the water, and her face looked a little bad.

Su Yue handed the pheasant and sugar over, "We have something to do with Uncle Li Zheng."

When Wu saw something, his eyes lit up. He brought something over. It shouldn't be about the previous matter.

She took the things with a smile and brought the two into the house, "His father, Saburo is here."

Xiao Li was very surprised when he heard the purpose of the two people, "You want to buy the pond in the village?"

Surprised that the two of them had free money to buy a pond.

"Do you want to raise fish or grow lotus roots?"

Su Yue vaguely said, "Well, there are all."

Xiao Li was frowning, "Sanlang should know that the pond is not deep, and raising fish or growing lotus roots is probably not good."

Xiao Sanlang: "Uncle Li Zheng, we also want to buy a wasteland from the pond to the river."

Xiao Li immediately understood what she meant, "You want to connect the pond and the river."

Su Yue nodded, "It won't be completely connected, it will leave a distance so that I can draw water into the pond."

Xiao Sanlang looked at Su Yue deeply and talked so much that it seemed that she had thought a lot in her mind.

"Uncle Li Zheng, how much money are appropriate?" He looked at Xiao Li Zheng.

"You know we don't have much money, we don't have land at home, and we still have Xiaowu and Yu Ge'er to study at home, so we want to find a living."

Xiao Li sighed, took out the dry tobacco pot on his waist and knocked it, put it to his mouth and took a sip before he spoke slowly:

"Sanlang, Uncle Li Zheng knew in his heart that when the family was separated, your breasts were bitten to death and didn't give them to you. I actually didn't agree with it."

"It's just that guy you breastfeed...ah, it's better not to say it."

Xiao Li was looking at Xiao Sanlang with some regrets.

At that time, Xiao Sanlang was the best child in the village. He thought this child could become the first scholar in the village, but who knew...

Alas, I can only say that this child is not in good condition.

Since I learned that Xiao Sanlang had no hope of the imperial examination, Xiao Lizheng has put his mind on other young people in the village. Now, looking at Xiao Sanlang again, the shallow regret in his heart has come to my heart again.

"Let's do this, the pond was dug by the villagers. You give it thirty taels, and I'll divide it into the village according to the account."

"The surrounding wasteland is about five acres, one tael of silver per acre, you can give it a total of thirty-five taels."

Su Yue looked at Xiao Sanlang and nodded slightly.

The reason why she asked Xiao Sanlang to accompany her was because in the minds of the ancients, buying ponds and land was a big deal, and the men at home had the final say.

Xiao Lizheng would not talk seriously to her, a woman.

Xiao Sanlang thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, please go to the county government tomorrow to apply for a red contract."

Seeing his promise so readily, Xiao Li's eyes flashed with surprise, "Okay, I'll write a covenant book now."

"I will go to the county government to do it for you tomorrow morning."

He got up and took the paper and pen, wrote the contract, and handed it to Xiao Sanlang.

Xiao Sanlang picked up his pen and wrote two words.

When Xiao Li saw it, his face changed suddenly, "Sanlang, you..."
