Chapter 104
Lin Nanzhi finally understood.
After the land was reclaimed, every household had land, and all the land they reclaimed belonged to them. The Lin family was large, and Grandpa Lin at that time was also a good farmer. The land of the family, large and small, totaled more than 20 acres.
It is said that the younger son is the older grandson. After Grandpa Lin passed away, Grandma Lin was particularly partial to Uncle Lin's family. But she also tried her best to be fair and just, and divided the property among her sons after they got married.
At that time, Lin's father's family only had land and forests, and the other uncles had the same thing. It was just that Uncle Lin's family had an extra house because of Grandma Lin's favoritism.
Uncle Lin's second and fourth families got married earlier. Both families went to work in other places and there was no one to cultivate the land, so they sold it to Lin's father, and Uncle Lin's third followed suit.
Lin Nanzhi's family owns more than ten acres of land in total, while the other uncles each have only two acres of wasteland in addition to the foundation, which they have all sold before. Now they may not be able to buy them back.
Lin's father's family has a lot of land, but the two largest places have been dug and made into a reservoir, where fish are now raised. The other one is at the foot of the opposite mountain and is now the orchard of Uncle Lin's family.
These uncles wanted to plant fruit trees, but they had no land, and she had just bought it, so they thought they didn't need to buy it, and could just take it directly from her. It was called a loan, but that was just a nice way of saying it, whether it was returned or not was one thing, and even if it was returned, it would not be of any benefit at all.
Lin Nanzhi bought the hundreds of acres of land with great difficulty, but it was not for doing good deeds, not to mention that it was not worth it.
If it was Uncle Lin's family, she would be willing without any hesitation, but as for the other families... forget it, she is not such a saint.
"No, I bought that land for another purpose."
"What's the use of you little doll?"
"Of course it's used to build an amusement park."
"Nonsense!" Uncle Lin suddenly shouted. Lin Nanzhi frowned and was about to speak when he heard Aunt Lin say, "Brother, Zhizhi bought the land. It doesn't matter if she has a use for it. I remember that the land in Liangzi Mountain hasn't been sold yet. Why don't we go and ask?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Lin was naturally dissatisfied.
Is it free to buy?
He no longer looked at Lin Nanzhi but at Lin's father, and with a tone of disapproval, he taught him: "Brother, are you too old and confused? You are the head of this family, why do you let a child discuss things?
I think you are just too accustomed to them. How can a little girl, who is going to get married in the future, point fingers at this family?
Or is it that Big Brother is actually unwilling to help us, so he said that on purpose? "
The last sentence was spoken almost with gritted teeth, and after saying it, he and Aunt Lin glared at Father Lin, as if they would completely break off all ties with him if Father Lin really dared to do this.
Father Lin didn’t know how to respond!
Uncle Lin looked at his younger brothers and fanned the flames: "Of course, eldest brother is definitely not that kind of person. I heard that the orchard of the fifth brother's family was given by eldest brother's family."
This is a naked attempt to sow discord!
Their tone seemed to be blaming Father Lin. So many places had been given to Uncle Lin, so why were they reluctant to give up just one piece of land?
If this isn’t partiality, what is?
Hearing this, Third Uncle Lin glanced at Father Lin without saying anything. However, Fourth Aunt Lin looked at Father Lin with a chubby face and smiled, "How could that be possible! Big brother has always been the pillar of the family. He treats his brothers and sisters equally. He wouldn't be partial, right?"
"I think so too. It would be embarrassing if it gets out!" Aunt Lin also echoed.
Lin Nanzhi rolled his eyes. Is this a form of moral kidnapping?
"Second Master, I still want to correct you on a few points. It may not sound nice, so please bear with me.
"First of all, I bought the land. It has nothing to do with my father. He can't make the decision for me. Even if I get married in the future, it's still mine and no one can take it away from me! Naturally, I have the final say!"
Secondly, I said that I have a use for that place, and it wasn't empty when I bought it, so I won't lend it to you.
Third, my grandpa’s orchard is indeed mine, but it is not given to my grandpa for free. They pay for it every year. You want to buy the land from me, it is not impossible. My grandpa’s family gives my family 100,000 yuan every year. We treat each other equally, so you can also give 100,000 yuan, or I can sell it to you at a family price, and only add 1,000 yuan per mu of land!"
One hundred thousand?
Everyone was shocked!
Even Lin's father and Uncle Lin's family were shocked!
When Lin Nanzhi gave them the land, he didn't ask for a penny. When the fruits were ripe, they just helped to harvest the fruits. They prepared generous gifts for Lin Nanzhi's family during festivals, but they were definitely not worth one hundred thousand.
But at this moment, no one spoke.
"One hundred thousand? You little girl, we are your uncles, how can you accept one hundred thousand every year?"
Lin Nanzhi curled his lips in disdain!
I still think 100,000 is cheap!
No, they had no intention of actually renting it to them, but the Lion asked for a high price, which made them give up.
When Lin was young, his father dropped out of school early for his younger brothers, but none of them appreciated it and thought it was their due. At that time, Lin Nanzhi's family was very poor, and the thing they feared most was illness. Every time someone got sick, they had no money to see a doctor and had to borrow money.
Especially when there was a time when Lin Nanzhi fell ill and almost died, the first people he thought of at that time were naturally his uncles and aunts’ homes. What was the result?
It would have been fine if the second uncle's family didn't lend money, after all, lending money is a favor and not lending is one's duty. But the couple pointed at Lin's mother who lent money and cursed Lin Nanzhi, saying that he should not be alive and it would be better for him to die.
It would be fine if it happened once, but it happened more than once.
When Lin's mother gave birth to Lin Nanzhi, she had a difficult labor because Lin's aunt pushed her too hard, causing her to give birth before the due time. Lin's mother almost died on the way.
Among Uncle Lin's family, Aunt Lin is a more insightful person. She has only been together with Uncle Lin this year. Uncle Lin used to be a reckless person. He would beat anyone who did not do what he wanted, no matter if it was my eldest brother or someone else's child.
But he scolded Lin Nanzhi's family more harshly.
Uncle Lin and Father Lin were not much different in temperament, but they were not as nice to Lin Nanzhi and his wife as Uncle Lin and his wife. However, Aunt Lin was confused. Not only did she use her own money to buy all kinds of gold and silver for her mother, which almost made her two children hungry, but she also cheated on her husband. Lin Nanzhi looked down on her.
Aunt Lin is a selfish person who loves to take advantage of others. She is the typical person who asks her mother to put down her bowl and scolds her during a meal. No matter how nice you are to her, it can't stand a word from others that tries to sow discord between them.
Although only three of them were relatively evil, Lin Nanzhi didn't want to give in at this juncture. After all, they were united at this moment, so she just had to give in.
If other people took advantage, Lin Nanzhi might feel uncomfortable, but she gradually forgot about it. However, if these three people took advantage, it would be like a thorn in her heart that could not be removed. She didn't want to make things difficult for herself.
