Bai Yunxi looked at her disgusted look and couldn't help laughing.
"Two women, if they don't act like monsters for two days, they will have nothing to do. Of course, Bai Yunsong gave them a sweet taste in the beginning. They became addicted and always wanted to get some small advantages."
Mrs. Zhang deeply agreed with this statement.
"There's no way around it. There are always a few people in a village who won't stop. Even if you hold down this one, that one will pop up. Anyway, you won't be able to rest."
The two talked for a while, and Baiyunxi spoke to the third uncle in the hall again. The old lady had worked too much in her life. She was obviously not as old as the first uncle and the second uncle, but she was already very old.
Occasionally, when I don't know anyone, I just smile when I look at Bai Yunxi, and I take her hand and pat her, saying, if it's good, it'll be fine, if it's fine, it'll be fine.
"I'm afraid I didn't recognize you."
Mrs. Zhang listened to her mother-in-law's tone and looked helplessly at Baiyunxi.
"The old lady has become more and more confused this year."
"San Auntie is a philanthropic person. It's because she was too tired when she was young."
In the memory, the original owner often heard her mother complaining about the third concubine. There were four sisters-in-law, and the most tiring one was the third concubine. She had a good temper and did whatever she was asked to do. She was the leader inside and outside.
Bai Yunxi watched the old lady staring at him with squinted cloudy eyes. While feeling emotional, she couldn't help but sympathize.
He knew the village he lived in and the surrounding environment very clearly. The gravel slope was not small, but the rocks and soil were mixed together, making it difficult to grow even a bean.
Being teased by the couple, Baiyunxi spread his hands and spoke directly.
"You are right, our aunt is not an ordinary person."
Go back and ask Du to pack up some yellow rice and send it over. That stuff nourishes the stomach and spleen and is good for digestion.
"You are capable, but you are also suffering from a disease."
"You guessed it right, I do have something to ask for. I want to buy the sloping land on the other side of the river."
Mrs. Zhang sighed, thinking about the strong little bodies and bright voices of the eldest and second aunts, and then looking at the decrepit mother-in-law, they couldn't compare.
"Thanks to my sister-in-law, I know this. The slope land I bought this time is not for land reclamation. I want to build a duck farm, raise ducks, and sell duck eggs. My fifth child will be finished in the next year. Once the scientific research road is opened, all I need is pen, ink, paper, and inkstones.
It’s very expensive, so I have to prepare it early.”
Seeing the old lady yawning, Mrs. Zhang covered her with a quilt. The two returned to the yard and sat under the pomegranate tree to talk.
"What gust of wind brought you here? You are the master who never goes to the Three Treasures Palace for anything."
As soon as Baiyunshan entered the door, he saw Baiyunxi and joked with a smile.
Zhang thought of the situation on that land and echoed,
"Little sister, that piece of land is really not good. If you think about it carefully, if you lose money on it, your money will be wasted."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, both of them were stunned.
"You still want to buy sloping land? Your land is already enough for farming. Besides, there isn't even an acre of farmland around that sloping land, which is different from the sloping land you bought earlier."
As soon as these words came out, the couple stopped talking. Their Xiaowu was a scholar. If he hadn't been a filial piety, he would have been a scholar long ago.
"Now that you have made up your mind, I will go to the town government tomorrow and ask the government officials to come and measure the land boundary. That piece of land is gravel wasteland, and the price should not be too high."
"Then please ask my cousin. I will definitely buy that piece. It will also be convenient for future activities."
Naturally, the bigger the duck farm, the better. The bigger the space for activities, the better the meat quality of the ducks raised.
