Chapter 82
“Is it because of the Zhou family who came this morning?”Gu Shouxin asked. “Isn’t that right? Second Brother, how did you know? They went to the county to look for you?”Gu Laosi was stunned and then asked in surprise. “I happened to meet Young Master Zhou. Let’s go. We’ll talk when we get there!”Gu Shouxin explained briefly. “Where are second sister-in-law and Nian Nian? Mother wants you to come over for dinner.”Gu Laosi looked into the house. “Xin Xin, go and call your mother and sister to stop working. Let’s go to Grandpa and Grandma’s house to eat.”Gu shouxin patted Gu Xin on the head and said. “Oh!”Gu Xin obediently went in and called for them. Soon, mother and daughter came out together. They closed the door and went to the old house. They had been delayed in the county town for a long time. It was the end of Shenshi now. They had two meals in San Cha Kou Village, in the morning and in the afternoon. Usually, the old house had already eaten by this time. They had specially asked Gu Lao si to come and call for people. It was probably prepared for their family. Therefore, Gu Shouxin did not refuse. Zhang Shi was in confinement. Gu Hui had already brought her food into the house. In the central room of the old house, the whole family of the Gu family was present. It was a rare occasion this year that the whole family was present. “Father, mother, the young master of the Zhou family has already told me about the land... What do you think?”Gu Shouxin told Lu Zheng what the sorcerer had said, and then asked for the opinions of the two elders. “Sorcerer? This master Zhou is the same. Now he even has to let the sorcerer look at the direction of the land?”Grandma GU obviously did not believe in these things. After staying in the village for a lifetime, this was the first time she had heard of a family who needed someone to look at the direction of their land. “Mother, Master Zhou is rich. I think he has his eyes on the land behind Second Brother’s house. If you want to rent it, then rent it to him! Anyway, there are no crops to grow in this winter!”Gu Shouren said. “Although the land deed was not given to you when your family was given out, it was given to you when it should be given to you. If you want to rent it, then rent it! “But this land can not be sold. The land deed is still in our hands. “When the fourth brother gets married and settles down his own home, I’ll give you and your brothers a new deed,”grandma Gu said after thinking for a while, “Yes,”she said. After rejecting the offer in the morning, she had thought about this problem. She could only rent it, not sell it. If one day her second son became a scoundrel again, at least he still had land. He wouldn’t starve his wife and daughter to death. “That’s good. When Young Master Zhou comes over tomorrow, I will ask him to come over to my mother’s side to sign the contract. The Zhou family is a big family, so they won’t lie to us.”Gu shouxin nodded and said. “Second brother, have you seen what young master Zhou wants to grow? What does it look like? Can We Go and grow it?”Gu Shouren was quite curious about this. Other than his strength, he was best at farming. Therefore, he was very interested in the crops of the Zhou family. He remembered that after the chilies were discovered by the imperial court, he was the first person in his village to plant the chilies. He also fell in love with farming at that time, so he had a great sense of achievement. “I really don’t know about this. But Big Brother, Young Master Zhou will come tomorrow. You can go and see for yourself.”Gu shouxin shook his head and said. “We’ve finished talking about this land. Second Brother, how was your trip to the county today? Did you sell that dregs of sea pepper?”Grandpa Gu asked worriedly. “Dad, we sold it. We even have a long-term partnership with the county’s restaurants. And that cake. From now on, our family of four doesn’t have to set up a stall anymore,”gu shouxin replied.
