Chapter 307 A Small Matter
Ye Beixiu quickly sat up straight, perked up, and listened to what Ye Jidong had to say.
Ye Jidong was awkward and hesitant, which made everyone in the yard very nervous.
Zhang Juexia's heart tightened as well. Could it be that he had something to hide?
Or maybe he wants to find another wife for Ye Beixiu.
Oh my god, about this matter, Zhang Juexia looked at Ye Jitong carefully and always felt that he didn't look like that kind of person.
Who knows? You can know a person’s face but not his heart.
Ye Jishun couldn't wait any longer. "Jidong, if you have anything to say, just say it! You're not acting like a village head."
Ye Jidong blushed, "This isn't the first time I've asked someone for help. I'm embarrassed! Bei Xiu, it's like this. Grandpa thinks you're good at farming. You know, we also have a piece of mountain land. Your two uncles and I have been tinkering with it for half a year, but we haven't grown anything.
This is what I think. Can I sell this land to you like Yunhai and the others?
Don't worry, I won't charge extra money. I will sell it to you for the same amount you paid for it.
I just want to ask if you two uncles can work with Yun Hai and the others, so that you can have some income every day."
Ye Jidong finished speaking in one breath, picked up the tea bowl beside him, and drank the tea in big gulps without even raising his head.
Zhang Juexia found Ye Jitong's embarrassing look very funny.
At the same time, he also felt that he was overthinking it. This matter was easy to handle. If Ye Jidong's family sold the mountain land to them, then the entire mountain land near Yejia Village should belong to his family.
Thinking of this, I remembered that Ye Jidong, as the village head, had indeed done a lot for them.
"Jidong, is it really that difficult for you just for such a small matter?" Ye Jishun glanced back at Ye Beixiu, then at Zhang Juexia, "You two should come up with a decision quickly. Your grandfather Jidong is not the type to ask for help easily."
Ye Beixiu looked at Zhang Juexia, who nodded. He then stood up and refilled Ye Jidong's teacup with tea. "We have taken over Grandpa's mountain land. I'll go over with the money this afternoon, and then I'll trouble Grandpa to help us get the land deed."
"That's it?"
Ye Jidong didn't expect Ye Beixiu to agree so easily.
When he was leaving, he hesitated for a long time. If the old woman at home had not urged him, he probably would not have had the courage to say this.
After all, he is the head of the village, and it is indeed embarrassing for him to face people if he can't even farm the land properly.
"Grandpa Lizheng, our village used to make a living by hunting, so it's normal that we don't know how to farm. When the time comes, let the two uncles, including the brothers at home, ask Uncle Yunhai to help with the work. We can all learn together through experience and slowly learn."
After hearing what Zhang Juexia said, Ye Jidong smiled brightly. "What Bei Xiu's wife said is true. Brother Ji Shun is so lucky! He married two grandchildren and their wives are both so lovely."
"Ji Dong, you should also be patient. Nowadays, life in our village is getting better and better. When Beiwang gets married, you must choose carefully. Then you will definitely marry a better woman into your family."
"Thanks to you, sister-in-law, we've all been looking forward to this! I have other things to do, so let's put it this way. Don't forget to come to my house this afternoon, Beixiu."
Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia stood up and escorted Ye Jidon out of the house.
After Ye Jidong left, the two of them wanted to go back to their own home, but were stopped by Wang Guilan. "Why go back? The pots and stoves are cold. I still have some leftover ingredients from yesterday. I'll call your uncle and his family over to eat together."
The two of them did not refuse. Zhang Juexia followed behind Wang Guilan and said, "Grandma, let me help you."
Ye Beixiu stuffed the purse Wang Guilan had just given her into her hands and said, "Grandma, you'd better take this money."
"Xiu'er, don't be polite to me. If you need it, just take it. Since I've taken it out, I'm giving it to you sincerely."
"Grandma, I don't need this money right now. When I need it someday, I'll ask you for it."
"Okay, put the milk away first. Beixiu, go to your uncle's house and call them all over."
Ye Beixiu responded and walked out.
After Ye Beixiu left, Wang Guilan pulled Zhang Juexia into the house and specifically asked her about what happened in Pang Xiujuan that morning.
Zhang Juexia did not hide anything and told Wang Guilan everything without missing a word.
Wang Guilan was so angry that her hands were shaking. "She's really outrageous. I've made note of this. I'll make sure she learns the lesson someday. Juexia, you and Beixiu are both good kids. You should try to persuade him more often. This kid has such a hard life!"
Come to think of it, this is also my fault. His father is gone, and I clearly wanted to keep his mother by his side. It's such a good thing for a child to have a mother.
But in the end, I didn't expect it to turn out like this.
To be honest, it’s better to be away and appear more comfortable.”
Zhang Juexia wanted to persuade him but didn't know where to start, so he could only listen carefully.
Wang Guilan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. "Never mind. Everyone has their own destiny. We are old and can't care so much. She doesn't want to acknowledge such a good eldest son. She is just unlucky."
Zhang Juexia agreed with Wang Guilan's words, but some things were hard to say.
Li Yiqin came over holding Xinxin. She ran a few steps quickly, took the child from Li Yiqin's arms, hugged and kissed the child, and was reluctant to let go.
Li Yiqin watched her clumsily holding the baby and said, "Juexia, you have to learn it well, otherwise, when you give birth, you won't even know how to hold the baby."
Zhao Baofeng and Ye Suyun also came in. Zhao Baofeng didn't pay attention to the way Zhang Juexia held the child. What she was concerned about was why she didn't have a child yet.
"Juexia, you and Beixiu have been married for a while, but your pregnancy is still not moving."
"Don't worry, auntie!"
"It's better to have this child earlier. Look at Xinxin, she's the happy pill of our family now."
Ye Suyun quickly came to Zhang Juexia's rescue, "Mom, grandma is busy in the kitchen alone, why don't you go and take a look."
Zhang Juexia winked at Ye Suyun to show his gratitude.
"Suyun, when will you return to town?"
"My master was very generous this time and gave me a long vacation. He said that if I don't want to stay at home anymore, I can go back."
"She's thinking that since you're getting married soon, she wants you to stay home for a few more days!"
"sister in law!"
Ye Suyun stamped her feet shyly, "I just helped you out!"
Li Yiqin took Xinxin from Zhang Juexia's hand and whispered, "Don't tell me. I get shy when I tell you."
Zhang Juexia smiled, "How is the dowry preparation going?"
"I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going to help in the kitchen."
Without waiting for Ye Suyun to turn around, Zhang Juexia deliberately raised his voice, "Suyun! Your brother Beixiu and I have discussed that when you are free, you can go to the county town and carefully choose a dowry. In this case, let's forget about this matter!"
