Delicate Flower

Chapter 135: Land sale

Yu Tang stroked his forehead, and when his father came back, he pulled him to share the moon cakes sent by Yu Yuan.

You eat meringue moon cakes here in Lin'an, but moon cakes in Guangzhou are relatively rare, which can be regarded as novel things. People like them usually don't eat it by themselves, but give it as a gift. But Yu Wen loves children and feels that since it is a rare and rare thing, if the child wants to taste it, he naturally has to taste it first.

Hearing this, he immediately ordered A Shao to get the knife, and said: "Call out Mrs. Chen, and everyone will try it to see how it is different from the moon cakes we usually eat."

They still have their share!

A Tiao was overjoyed, and immediately called Po Chen and others.

When Old Lady Chen knew about it, she was so happy that her eyes narrowed, and she took the knife herself. The four-month cake was cut into sixteen portions, and everyone tasted it.

"It's delicious!" The first person who uttered the admiration was Mrs. Chen. She is older and likes to eat soft and waxy things. "How do they make moon cakes, sweet and soft, today I can thank the lady and wife." , I also have the opportunity to eat such delicious moon cakes."

Shuangtao and Ah Tiao nodded their heads.

Chen also thought it was delicious, but she thought the meringue mooncakes filled with sesame and rock candy, and the mouthful of crispy cakes were more delicious, but she was also a pet. Since Yu Tang thinks the mooncakes in Guangzhou are delicious, she also tried Let’s make mooncakes like this.

"Then this year's moon cakes I specially wrapped lotus seed paste and egg yolk for you?" she asked Yu Tang.

what!

Mother's words reminded Yu Tang.

Pei Yan also grew up in Lin'an. Maybe he was the same as his mother, so he looked for meringue mooncakes. Instead of making four-dimension mooncakes, it is better to make meringue mooncakes with different fillings.

Yu Tang smiled and nodded, and said to her mother: "Okay! We can also make moon cakes with nuts, moon cakes with jujube mud, moon cakes with red bean and rock sugar..."

Chen touched her daughter's head and smiled: "Do it for you. As long as you can think of it, Mom will do it for you."

Yu Tang's big apricot smile turned into a crescent moon.

Chen's and Chen's wife became busy. Boil red beans, buy salted eggs, steamed dates...the sweet smell wafts in the house every day.

It's just that they haven't waited until they start delivering mooncakes to Pei's house, and the Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony of Pei's house has arrived first.

Yu Tang has a lush green and gold material, a bunch of eighteen buddha beads made of red sandalwood from Chen's family, Yu Wen has a knife of clear paper, and a box of lake pens.

It was delivered by the third chief, Hu Xing himself.

My cousin is just such a gift.

Yu Wen felt a lot of face with the gift list.

The Chen family was under a lot of pressure, and felt that Pei Yan had to take a look at the moon cakes sent to Pei's Mansion. If they could eat two, it would be even better.

She discussed with Yu Wen: "Why don't you go outside and buy some moon cakes from Beijing and Guangzhou. Although I can't make the dough, we can try to use the puff pastry bag. Maybe it will be the appetite of Master Pei San."

Yu Wen also felt sorry for his wife and felt that this was too troublesome, so he hurriedly said: "You have a hard time getting better, so don't worry about it. I think it's better to send some antiques or something."

Chen disagreed, saying: "I gave out antiques during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Shouldn't I give out antiques again during the Spring Festival? Our family is not the big family, so we can't make this face. Sending some small things we make can better express our hearts ."

Yu Wen scratched his head.

I don't know how many people have been blessed by the Pei family, and they will try their best to give the Pei family the things they made during the holidays. It is not uncommon for the Pei family to send the things their home is good. But this is the wife's heart, he is not good to pour cold water on her. I had to say: "Well, I'll let someone go out and buy some mooncakes back."

Chen nodded in satisfaction, and studied with Granny Chen how to make the mooncake filling made of red beans sweet but not greasy, and said: "The three masters are big fish and meat every day. I definitely don't like heavy oil and heavy sugar. Let's do it lightly."

Yu Tang curled his lips while listening, and said, "Mum, Master Pei San is still in his filial piety period. When I saw him last time, he was still wearing a muslin plain cloth."

Chen listened for a moment, and sighed: "There are too few people like him who keep salutes now."

Although it’s been 27 months to get rid of clothes, there are very few people who can really be vegetarian and poorly clothed during the filial piety period. After the anniversary, everyone will relax more or less in private.

Yu Tang was a little distracted when she listened, and she didn't know how Pei was dressed for the banquet after serving him?

Chen's and Chen's wife tried several methods, and the meals of Yu's family were very simple for a few days.

Yu Wen felt a little aggrieved as he ate, and reminded Chen tactfully: "Crabs are coming on the market soon, do you want to order early crabs to eat?"

In the past, Chen's health was not good, and he rarely ate crabs at home.

Chen felt guilty, and smiled apologetically to Yu Wen: "I want to order some crabs in advance. I remember Atang liked to eat crabs the most when he was young. I haven't bought many crabs in the past few years."

Yu Wen smacked his mouth.

He also endured a lot of hard work, okay, but his wife was even more worried about Yu Tang, why he had to set up a table of crab banquets for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet this time to relieve his greed.

The two were talking and laughing, Master Wu brought a basket of crabs over to visit Yu Wen.

Yu Wen was surprised and delighted, and went to welcome Master Wu in person for tea, and asked Chen and Yu Tang to say hello to Master Wu.

This is what it means to walk around as a family member.

Both Yu Tang and Chen changed their clothes and spoke with Master Wu in the hall.

Somehow the topic changed from Osmanthus to the farm at home.

Master Wu lowered his voice and said to Yu Wen: "Have you heard that, the Li family, the Li Duan family, wants to sell 50 acres of land."

Yu Tang immediately pricked his ears.

The acres are handed down family wealth, and they will not easily sell the land when the idlers are not a last resort. If anyone sells land, it means losing.

In the previous life, when the Li family only bought land, there was no land sale before!

Chen was also shocked when he heard the words, and squeezed the veil nervously.

Yu Wen didn't conceal his surprise, and said: "Who did Brother Wu listen to? Didn't Mrs. Li just leave the Beijing official? Why would you want to sell the land?"

Master Wu sternly said: "You know, our family has some spare money. A Chinese man quietly found me a few days ago and asked me if I could buy it, and told me not to speak out. You know, this is the Li family. It’s been a mess for a few years. Even if Li Duan’s house and Li’s house are divided into houses, they can’t write two "Li" characters at a stroke. Their family wants to sell land, and Li’s house is definitely the one who wants to buy the land most. I bought it back, why bother to go to this muddy water. But their land is really good, that is, the land where Bigongmi is born. I have been thinking about it for a few days at home, but I still can’t let it go, thinking about my brother. I’m not someone else. You thought of me for good things. I can’t forget you when I have good things. I came over to ask you. If you are interested, our two families will divide the land. What do you think?"

Yu Tang understood after listening.

Because they had invested in Jiang Chao's ship together, Master Wu and her father got closer, and the two who had been in a good relationship are now like confidants. The Li family has two hundred acres of fine land, all grown are Bijingmi, and Bijingmi is a kind of rice that tastes better than the tribute June Snow. The Li family can live a middle-class family with these two hundred acres of farmland. Days. It’s just that the two hundred acres of land was in the hands of the Li family a hundred years ago, and the family was later divided into the Li Duan’s family. With the days of Li Duan’s family, it was impossible to sell these two hundred acres of land in any case. No coveting.

Li Jia is now selling land!

And it's still a good field that can grow Bijiemi!

If others knew, they would definitely raise the land price madly and try to get the fifty acres of land in their hands.

Compared to selling land, Yu Tang wants to know why the Li family sells this fifty acres of land?

Yu Wen was immediately moved, and he said: "How much is the price?"

Master Wu stretched out his four fingers sighfully.

Yu Wen was taken aback, and tentatively said, "Forty-two acres?"

Master Wu nodded and sighed: "The price is high."

Yu Wen frowned.

The price of land in Lin'an City is 80 taels for the finest fertile land. Sometimes in special situations, it will sell for twelve taels or twelve two acres, and almost none of the fifteen acres.

Forty-two acres, it is only possible that the nouveau riche bought Yongyetian.

No wonder I'm looking for Master Wu.

Ordinary people really can't afford it.

Of course, he can also get it now. But with so much money to buy 50 acres of land, the most important thing is that the two hundred acres of the Li family are connected together, and the 50 acres of land sold are next to the Li family’s land. What water source or It is a dispute about pests, which is easy to be unclear and unclear, and it is not easy to manage.

Yu Wen asked Master Wu: "Then what do you mean?"

Master Wu said: "I think forty taels is too expensive. See if you can talk about 32 acres. I will take 40 acres, and you will take 10 acres. You and I will not be stretched out, and we will have to take care of each other. ."

The main thing is to take care of each other, right?

Yu Tang thought, eager to try.

I want to get the ground a bit like revenge, and I feel that getting the ground will definitely be involved again, which is a bit troublesome.

The most important thing is that she thinks that whether her father or Mr. Wu dare to buy this place, the main reason is that they think they can make a lot of money by investing in Jiang Chao's shares. When the time comes, the Wu family has a brother-in-law who is an official, and Yu Wenwen is a scholar. Even if the Li family clan wants to trouble them, even if the Li Duan family regrets it afterwards, they have the financial resources to deal with the Li family.

Yu Wen and Master Wu really thought so. But Yu Wen was timid, he hesitated: "Such a land price is definitely not affordable to ordinary people. Should we wait? First find out why the Li family sells the land?"

He was sure that the Li family wanted a face and wouldn't go to Pei's family.

Master Wu said helplessly: "I don't know the truth. But I asked anyone who could ask, but I didn't find out why the Li family wanted to sell the fifty acres of land."

After all, Yu Wen has fame and fame. If you want to know some news, especially the news between scholars, it is easier to inquire than Master Wu.

This may be another reason why Master Wu urged Yu Wen to buy land.

Yu Wen nodded.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

There is a bit of like-mindedness in the smile that you know and I know.

But in Yu Tang's eyes, this is embarrassing.

But it was embarrassing and she liked it very much.

Yu Tang even took the initiative to get up and tell Shuangtao: "It's so hot, go and bring in a bowl of iced mung bean soup."

Shuang Tao left.

Master Wu smiled and said to Yu Wen: "Your girl has grown more and more, but it's a pity that our boy and your girl are not quite the same age."

Yu Wen smiled and waved his hand, just about to say a few words of humility, when he saw the master of Wu's house rushing in with a blank face, hissed: "Master, Master Yu, it's okay, there's something wrong with Master Jiang!"
