Chapter II Cultivated Land(1/2)

"Is anyone at home?"

At this time, a shout came in outside the door.

It broke the short silence between the two.

Realizing that someone was coming, Wang Susu hurriedly wiped her tears on her sleeve.

"You go and wash your hands, I'll see who is here."

Chen Ling said to Wang Susu, pulled open the electric light in the yard, lifted the curtain and walked out.

Taking advantage of the light, a thin black old man wearing a blue and white turban and a blue Zhongshan suit came into the house with a flashlight.

"Oh, I'm back very early today, rich!"

Seeing Chen Ling come out, the thin black old man smiled and showed his yellow teeth and said hello.

Then, without waiting for Chen Ling to speak, he asked, "Where is Su Su? Are you at home? If you have something to do, you will notify her again!"

Chen Ling was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that in the eyes of outsiders, he was already a lazy man, and he was useless.

So if there is something at home, I will come to his wife to discuss it.

"It's Uncle Wu. It's cold outside. Come into the house and sit down."

At this time, Wang Susu came out and hurriedly called the old man into the house.

The old man smiled and waved his hand: "I won't go into the house. Today I will talk about two things. One is the deposit of the money I received before the New Year, and the other is the exchange of arable land between your family and Erzhu's family..."

"Of course, it's mainly about exchanging arable land, and I want to remind you again."

"Spring will begin soon. If you can finish it, you can finish it as soon as possible. If you have a few more days, the village will have to re-dividate the arable land, and everyone will be in trouble."

After listening to what the old man said, Chen Ling didn't feel anything.

I just took advantage of the opportunity to remember who this old man was here.

The old man's name is Wang Laishun, the village chief and village party secretary of Chen Wangzhuang.

Because the family is ranked fifth, the younger generation either calls the fifth uncle or the fifth master.

At the same time, Chen Ling also remembered his nickname, Chen Fugui, and the name Chen Ling was changed only after going to school.

Compared to Chen Ling's thoughts, Wang Susu's reaction was a bit too big.

"Five, Uncle Wu, didn't you say that my family was changing with Xiuying's sister-in-law's house? Why did it change with Erzhu's house?"

Wang Susu knew the matter of withdrawing money, but how did the matter of exchanging arable land change in the end?

Xiuying's sister-in-law's land is very fertile and close to the village, so it is not comparable to the wasteland at the foot of Erzhu Family.

The difference is very different.

"Ah? You don't know?"

Wang Laishun widened his eyes when he heard this, frowned and looked at Wang Susu, and then at Chen Ling.

Then he said, "But I heard Erzhu say you know, and I also said that I have added 200 yuan to your family per acre of land."

"He gave me a note, and you and Fugui both put their handprints on it..."

Wang Laishun said, taking out a cigarette box from his shirt pocket.

A stack of paper was placed in the cigarette box.

I saw the old man pull out one of them and hand them to Wang Susu.

"Look, is it your handprints?"

When Wang Susu saw the note, she did not take it as soon as possible, but looked at Chen Ling before she took it into her hand.

After expanding and looking, Wang Susu's face quickly turned pale.

He looked at Chen Ling in shock and grievance and said, "You, have you exchanged our land for Erzhu's family?"

"Do you know that the grass in Erzhu's land does not grow well, and you can't grow food..."

"What do we rely on to live in the future!"

Wang Susu's voice was already crying, her eyes were filled with tears, and she bit her lower lip and looked at Chen Ling.

Chen Ling was a little confused, but when he saw Wang Susu was angry and cried, he didn't dare to say more.

After rubbing his eyebrows, Chen Ling suddenly remembered a picture in his mind.

At the beginning of the year, when the county town was having a temple fair, Chen Erzhu took him to the dance hall to drink and behave freely.

What happened during this period? The original owner’s memory was missing.

But after coming out drunk at night, Chen Erzhu hugged his shoulder and said something, then laughed and stuffed a piece of paper with red ink into his pocket...

When Chen Ling thought of this scene, his mind buzzed and thought, no, it was because the original owner didn't ask for money from Wang Susu on the day of the temple fair. After hearing that Erzhu subsidized 200 yuan per mu of land, he agreed to exchange for arable land with him?

Then, at night, secretly pressed the handprint with Wang Susu's hand?

Damn it!

You know that that night, this guy made an excuse to beat Wang Susu...

Is this what people do?

Since you have the ability to beat your wife, why do you secretly hold someone else's handprints?

This bastard really refreshed his three views again and again.

The most annoying thing is that he has to take over these messes now!

"Su Su, I, this..."

Chen Ling was speechless, what could he say about this situation?

Although Wang Susu pressed the handprint without knowing it, she pressed it up after all, and said that she didn't know what to do, who would believe it if others believed it.

So it's useless to want to go back on your word now.

If you don't admit it if you are a scoundrel, it will be easy to destroy the handprinted strip.

But not only did his reputation become even worse, Wang Susu would not have the shame to meet others in the future.

In his previous life, he had seen many treacherous people eating IOUs, evidence, and even lots of votes that were drawn in public, but they had no good ending.

Rural roads are slipperier and people's hearts are more complicated, it's not just a saying.

Sometimes trivial matters come to trouble and it is very common not to talk for half a lifetime.

Not to mention the arable land, there is also the famous second-rate man Chen Erzhu.

Wang Susu squatted on the ground and started crying.

Chen Ling held the note and looked at the two dazzling red handprints on it, and couldn't help but grit his teeth at the original owner.

He deserves it to be beaten up by his brother-in-law.

"Oh, Su Su, don't cry for now. I think this matter is not good, so I will talk to Erzhu again. It's a fellow villager in the country, so you can discuss something if you have something to do."

Wang Laishun sighed and persuaded.

When he came, he wondered, Wang Susu was quite smart, why would he agree to exchange for Erzhu's wasteland?

Unexpectedly, Chen Ling, a prodigal son, did it, so there is nothing to say.

The little boy sells his land and doesn’t feel bad!

Wang Laishun glanced at Chen Ling and thought to himself: This lazy boy just needs discipline, especially after he died, he is simply not a human being.

His brother-in-law still beat him too lightly.

Thinking of this, he reached out and pulled the note that had pressed the handprint back from Chen Ling's hand.

"You guys pressed their handprints, and I can't help anyone, so I'll put this one here first..."

"This year, a high-voltage line will be set up in the south, occupying a lot of arable land. You all know that. Next month, the village will come to measure the land, and each household will re-dividate the land. It's not a few days before. Please discuss with Erzhu's family and find out the results."

"I'll leave first if there's nothing else, and there are still a few more companies to go around."

Wang Laishun threw down a few words and was about to leave with his hands behind his back.

At this time, Wang Susu called him again: "Uncle Fifth, I'll get you the money."

Wang Laishun walked to the gate of the yard. Hearing this, he slapped his forehead and thought that he almost forgot about this, but he said that he was not in a hurry. He would just give it a message in some days.

Chen Ling saw that the old man was pretending to be polite. After all, the amount of money left in the past is not a small amount, so he didn't talk to him much and followed Wang Susu into the house.

When he entered the room, he saw Wang Susu taking out a small black wooden box from his pillow, which was slender and rectangular, and took out a stack of money from it.

Judging from the amount of 180 yuan, I guess I can barely pay the withdrawal of two people.

Tsk, this little wife is quite smart.

This place to hide money is well chosen, it is dark under the light!

“Huh?”

"Why does this wooden box look so familiar?"
