Chapter 327 Renting Land to Grow Vegetables
When Jiang Xinbai arrived at the store, Yang Jinsheng was on the phone. When he saw his wife come in, he mouthed to her, "Zhiyuan,"
After he hung up the phone, Jiang Xinbai quickly asked, "What? Did Zhiyuan call you?"
"No, it was my eldest brother-in-law who was talking about Zhiyuan. You said Zhou Xiaoqing is a bully and coward, and Zhiyuan is also a brave guy. Guess how he scared Zhou Xiaoqing?" Yang Jinsheng asked with a smile.
"How did you do it? Did you call the police?"
Yang Jinsheng shook his head. "Of course not. Zhiyuan, he stayed at the hotel where Zhou Xiaoqing was staying. When he saw Zhou Xiaoqing and her husband coming out, he went up to her and grabbed her husband and said that Zhou Xiaoqing was sick and insisted on pestering her parents to have a child. He said that if she was sick, she should get treatment. How could she run around on the street!"
"Did Zhiyuan really say that?" Jiang Xinbai smiled. She had said it long ago that since Zhou Xiaoqing was afraid that her current husband would know, she should just tell him directly to save him from being disgusted by her.
"Yes, I said that my eldest brother-in-law was too arrogant. He should have just complained to Zhou Xiaoqing's husband directly instead of dragging it out for so long."
"Hey, my brother-in-law is used to being a leader, and he does things very honestly. Zhiyuan still has a way. By the way, have you asked about that cousin Qian? He should be fine, right? Does the child know about it himself?"
Although Jiang Xinbai's words were rather vague, Yang Jinsheng understood them.
He smiled and replied, "Cousin Qian is not at home right now, and the child has always believed that he is his biological child. No one doubts it, so it's okay."
"That's good. That's good."
"Xinbai, Jinsheng, you are here, that's great, I have something to ask you." At this time, Yang Fugui's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Dad, why are you here? Did something happen?" Yang Jinsheng said as he hurriedly prepared to help his old father into the store.
Yang Fugui shook off his youngest son's hand and replied angrily, "You really don't know how to talk. What else happened? What could possibly happen to me?"
"Dad," Yang Jinsheng said helplessly, "I'm just worried about you. Look at you, your temper gets worse as you get older. Really."
"Dad, Jinsheng is concerned about you. Come, sit down first. You just said you had something to talk to us about. What is it?"
Jiang Xinbai helped her father-in-law to sit down. The old man is still a child. When old people get old, they are just like children and need to be coaxed.
Yang Fugui took a sip of water and said with a smile: "Xinbai, I just want to ask you, is there any land around here where we can grow vegetables? Your father and I think it's not a good idea to just sit there doing nothing, so we thought about getting a piece of land to grow vegetables. If there are more, we can sell them!"
Yang Jinsheng frowned when he heard this. "Dad, you said you don't know how to enjoy your blessings. What's the point of farming? You've never farmed in your life. Do you know how to do it?"
"Hey, you look down on your dad. I haven't done much farming, but your father-in-law knows how to do it. Why don't he teach me?"
"Okay, Dad, I understand. You guys want to find something to do, right? I forgot about this when I had so much to do. How about I take you there now? I really like a piece of land."
"Hey, no, Xiaobai, you really want Dad and the others to go farm?" Yang Jinsheng reached out and held his wife's hand, thinking that there were so many things to do, why did they have to farm, and he was so bored.
"Hey, Jinsheng, my parents just got here, so it's good to cook some dishes to kill time. Just don't worry about it. Dad, let's go!" Jiang Xinbai picked up his bag and walked out.
"Okay, I'll call your dad."
Jiang Xinbai led the four elderly people and walked for about five or six minutes until they came to an open space. He smiled and said, "Look, that's it. There's probably about three acres of land here. Is that enough for you to grow vegetables?"
Yang Fugui asked Jiang Youtian, "Youtian, what do you think? I have never farmed before, so I don't know if it is enough."
Jiang Youtian waved his hand and replied, "It depends on what you grow. If you only grow a few vegetables, it will be enough. If you grow too much, it will definitely not work."
"Well, I want to plant some tomatoes. Xiaobao loves to eat them. I also want to plant some carrots. I heard they are good for the eyes. Jiadong and his friends are straining their eyes when they study. I want to plant more too."
Sun Erni already had a plan in mind. She went out to buy vegetables these days. The price was not very expensive, but it was not cheap either. She thought it would be better to grow some herself.
"Yes, there is also cabbage that needs to be planted, as well as cucumbers, onions, coriander, and white radishes. Oh, there are too many to plant." Chen Cui'e counted on her fingers and felt that the three acres of land was not enough to plant!
Jiang Xinbai was dumbfounded, and quickly spoke out to stop them, "Mom and Dad, this is just to give you something to do to pass the time. You can't take it seriously, it's too tiring."
"What do you mean by killing time? If you want to plant, you should plant seriously, right, Youtian." Yang Fugui said while raising his chin towards Jiang Youtian.
"You're right, Xiaobai, this three acres of land is a bit small. No, you have to find another piece of land for us." Jiang Youtian said somewhat dissatisfiedly after walking around the land a few times.
"Oh, Dad, my dear dad, where can I find a piece of land for you? It took me a long time to find this three acres of land. Do you think you are doing this for free? You have to pay for it!" Jiang Xinbai was really helpless.
"Of course it can't be farmed for free. Land is the root of farmers. No one will give you farmed for free. It is normal to ask for money. But how much money do you want per year?" Chen Cui'e asked one last question.
"Five dollars. Five dollars a year is enough for this three acres of land."
"Well, it's not that expensive. Have you paid?"
"I haven't paid you yet. I don't know if you are willing to plant it, so I haven't paid you yet."
"That's good, that's good, it's still too small, you can look for it again." Jiang Youtian really looked down on this three-acre land. What can he do with such a small piece of land?
"Jiang Xiaomei, you are here. How is it? Have you decided on the land issue?" At this time, an old lady came over and asked with a smile.
"Aunt Chen, I'm taking my parents and my parents-in-law to see it,"
"Xiaobai, is this the owner of this land?" Chen Cui'e pointed at Aunt Chen and asked.
"Well, this piece of land belongs to Aunt Chen,"
Chen Cui'e said immediately, "Sister, do you think there is a bigger plot of land? We think this three acres of land is too small and not enough for planting!"
Aunt Chen looked at Jiang Xinbai, then at Chen Cui'e, and said hesitantly, "Didn't you want a smaller one?"
Jiang Xinbai had no choice but to explain, "Aunt Chen, I originally wanted to let them kill time and grow some vegetables, but my parents thought the land was too small. Do you have any larger vacant land?"
Aunt Chen's eyes lit up when she heard this. She clapped her hands and laughed, "Oh, you're right. I do have two pieces of idle land. My sons all work in the factory, and we can't farm them. If you want, I'll let you farm them. But that's two acres, so the price is much higher."
"Two acres of land is barely enough, at least for a year." Chen Cui'e thought that if it was not too expensive, she might as well rent it.
Aunt Chen rolled her eyes and held up five fingers. "Fifty-one years."
"Fifty? You might as well go and rob." After saying that, Chen Cui'e pulled Jiang Xinbai back. What kind of people are they? They are asking for such a huge sum of money, and they really think they are being taken advantage of!
