Chapter 129 Buying out the Land and House



Chen Yan originally thought that after this commotion, he would not be kicked out of Qingshan Village. He was feeling proud of himself when his niece-in-law came over to ruin his plan.

"You believed what she said, she was lying to you." Chen Yan wanted to make a final struggle.

"What I say is not credible, but what you say is credible. Uncle, don't be too confident." Li Yun said to Chen Yan.

"Stop misleading the public with your evil deeds." Chen Yan said angrily.

"Uncle, do you have any evidence to prove that what I said is not true? Did you ever grow sweet potatoes?

Do you know how much it yields per mu?" Li Yun asked Chen Yan.

The villagers of Qingshan Village also looked at Chen Yan to see what he would say.

“I, I have never grown sweet potatoes.

"Have you ever grown sweet potatoes?" Chen Yan cursed.

"I have never grown sweet potatoes, but I have seen them and their yield when mature, so I know they are high-yielding," Li Yun said affirmatively.

Of course she had seen it. In her previous life, she often planted sweet potatoes and sold them, so she knew the yield per mu. In ancient times, the land was barren, so she did not dare to decide the yield per mu.

The villagers of Qingshan Village also knew that Li Yun had recovered her memory, and they also knew that her family was very wealthy before, otherwise they would not have had the money to buy more than 300 acres of land after recovering her memory, nor would they have had the money to buy so many servants.

"Girl, I believe you." said the village chief.

"We believe in you too," said the villager who worked for Li Yun.

"Kick Chen Yan and the others out of the village." The villagers said in unison.

"Even if you drive us out of the village, we still have to sell our land and houses before we can leave." Chen Yan wanted to take this opportunity to go home.

As long as they go home, they will not go out and would rather die at home.

"No need. I have sold your land and house. I will give you the money as long as you bring me the land deed and the house deed." Li Yun said.

"Yes, Yaoguang, take a few young men with you to take Chen Yan and Chen Dagang back to pack their luggage and bring the land deeds and house deeds over. In front of everyone, with the clan leader and the elders as witnesses, I will buy out the land and houses of Chen Yan's family and Chen Dagang's family." The village chief instructed his son Chen Yaoguang.

Chen Yaoguang, along with four young and strong men, took Chen Yan and Chen Dagang back to their home.

Li Yun and others were waiting for them here. Jinhua and Jinying kept crying, but no one paid any attention to them.

Half an hour later, Chen Yaoguang and several young men finally came back with Chen Yan and Chen Dagang.

Following behind were children, women and the elderly.

Chen Yan has six grandchildren, Chen Dagang has four grandchildren, and they also have a pair of elderly parents to support.

"Dad, here are Chen Yan's house deeds and land deeds." Chen Yaoguang handed the land deeds and house deeds to the village chief.

"Girl, this is the land deed for five acres of wasteland and five acres of fertile farmland, and this is the house deed." After looking at the land deed and the house deed, the village chief handed them to Li Yun.

"Manager Cui, please write a receipt indicating that we have bought out Chen Yan's land and house." Li Yun said to the manager.

"Yes, master." After saying that, he went back to write the receipt.

"Village chief, these are the land deeds and house deeds of Chen Dagang's family." Aunt Hong's son said to the village chief.

The village chief took them, looked at them, and handed them to Li Yun.

Li Yun looked around and found that there were six acres of land, four acres of wasteland and two acres of fertile land.

"Uncle village chief, grandpa clan leader, how much silver do you think we should give per mu?" Li Yun asked the village chief and clan leader.

"Girl, let's just set the price at two taels for wasteland and five taels for good farmland." The village chief said to Li Yun.

"Okay, let's take this price." Li Yun also agreed to this price.

Just then, Manager Cui brought three receipts, one from Chen Yan, one from Chen Dagang, and one from Widow Tang.

After Li Yun told Manager Cui what to write, he gave money to Chen Yan and Chen Dagang.

"Uncle has three acres of wasteland and three acres of fertile farmland, which are worth a total of twenty-one taels. I will give you ten taels for the big house, which is a total of thirty-one taels. If you agree, just sign here and I will give you the money immediately. If you don't agree, I can't help you. You can take the land deeds and house deeds and leave. As for whether they can be sold, it's hard to say. After all, Qingshan Village does not accept strangers." Li Yun said to Chen Yan.

"Ten taels is too little for you for the house. If you add a little more, fifteen taels, I will sell it to you." Chen Yan said.

"Chen Dagang has four mu of wasteland and two mu of good farmland, which is worth eighteen taels in total. The house is dilapidated, so I'll give you eight taels. If you agree to sign and seal, you can take the land and house deeds and leave Qingshan Village.

"I'm just giving you a friendly reminder: if you leave with money, you won't starve to death, but if you leave without money, you'll definitely end up on the streets," Li Yun said to Chen Dagang.

"I'll sell it." After saying that, he took the receipt from Manager Cui and signed it.

Li Yun gave him twenty-eight taels and kept the land deed and house deed.

"Chen Ye's family has crops in the fields, can we give them some subsidies? There are also many pots and pans in the house, can we give them some silver?" Chen Hai's wife asked Li Yun.

Li Yun thought about it and it made sense. She didn't care about this little bit of money anyway.

"Okay, I'll give you two taels of silver." After saying that, he gave two taels of silver to Chen Hai's wife.

"Village chief, please don't chase us away. My wife and I are both old. Where can we go if we leave Qingshan Village?" Chen Dagang's father begged the village chief.

"Sixth Uncle, I don't want this to happen either. Your grandson has made such a big mistake. I can't let him ruin so many people in Qingshan Village. Please forgive me, Sixth Uncle." The village chief said with embarrassment.

"What a sin, what a sin!

How could there be such a son and grandson? It’s all because of you who spoiled him.” Chen Dagang’s father hit Chen Dagang.

"Uncle, have you made up your mind? I don't have time to accompany you here. I still have to plant potatoes." Li Yun waited for a long time but saw that his uncle did not take any action, so he said to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan also knew that it was impossible to live in Qingshan Village, so he had to agree to sell the land and house to Li Yun.

Li Yun gave Chen Yan thirty-one taels of silver and another two taels of silver as a subsidy. He took the land deed, house deed and two receipts and put them into his sleeve, which was actually put into the space.

"Master, don't we still have Widow Tang and her family?" Manager Cui asked Li Yun.

"Uncle village chief, grandpa clan leader, how are you going to deal with Widow Tang?" Li Yun asked the village chief and clan leader.

"We can't come to a conclusion either. Widow Tang has only one son, Tiedan. If he is removed from the list, he won't know where to go. Widow Tang will definitely not want him even if she comes out." The village chief said embarrassedly.

“I wonder if the village chief uncle and clan leader grandfather have the authority to divorce the deceased Chen Dazhuang’s wife. If they divorce her, she will have no connection with Qingshan Village anymore.

If I can get Tiedan to break off his relationship with Widow Tang, I can adopt Tiedan until he is fifteen years old.

The village chief can rent Tiedan's land to villagers for cultivation, and the rent will be kept by the village chief and the clan leader until Tiedan turns fifteen, when the rent and the house will be handed over to him.

What do the village chief and clan leader think of this method? "The main reason why Li Yun wanted to adopt Tiedan was because he felt sorry for him.

"Girl, let us discuss it." They need to discuss this matter before making a decision.

"Uncle village chief, you guys take your time to discuss it and just let me know when you have a result." After Li Yun finished speaking, she called the villagers to go with her to plant potatoes. As for where Chen Yan and Chen Dagang would go, it had nothing to do with her.
