The right to use barren hills and wastelands is 30 years, and the lease is automatically renewed upon expiration. Rural people are used to it, so they buy hills and land.
Chunni and Lao entered the house, and another 40 or 50 people came in. There were also people coming in from outside. The house was really full.
The accountant can shout loudly to ensure that people inside and outside the room can hear him.
Chunni and Laoyi kept silent as the land was sold piece by piece. The land they were selling now was next to other people's food-grain fields, so they were basically bought first.
They will only buy if the villagers don't want to buy. If you buy land next to someone's food-grain field and bid against them, you are making enemies. The villagers basically follow this principle.
After these people have bought the land next to them, the rest can be bought by everyone.
Chunni doesn't compete with others. She won't take what others want, but she will take what others are considering. She doesn't bid with anyone.
The whole process of buying land was very harmonious. Chunni bought 10 mu of land, and with the food-producing land, it was almost 30 mu. The next step was the mountain.
Whoever has his ancestral grave on this piece of mountain will have priority to buy it. Those who don't have money will negotiate with the buyer of the mountain to decide whether to pay money or exchange the land for the place occupied by the ancestral grave. If you don't want to take anything, the buyer can level the graves.
If you don't want your ancestors anymore, then they won't keep them for you.
Chunni's father said seriously that the most feared thing is the mountains. There are too many disputes. Who doesn't have an old man buried there? It costs a lot of money to buy a mountain, and most people can't afford it.
After Chunni's father finished speaking, the villagers all nodded. In the past, the mountains were ownerless and people buried graves randomly. Now it is no longer possible. The land has been divided, and the mountains have also been divided. It is someone else's territory, so they can only negotiate with them or move the graves.
Many people have their own land and want to move their graves.
There are not many mountains, and even fewer people who can afford to buy them. Chunni bought a mountain far away and handed in the money.
My brother, sister-in-law, younger brother and his wife were all stunned outside the door. When did their sister-in-law become so rich? They were so jealous to buy so much land. They thought it was money given by the family.
Now they bought another mountain. It was a mountain! They were sure that the family didn’t have the money! Because Chunni’s father also bought one, they knew how much money the family had!
"Aren't my sister-in-law's family extremely poor? How can they have so much money to buy land?" The younger brother's wife secretly asked the head of the family
I was also very confused. Looking at my elder brother, he was even more dumbfounded. If he had known that my younger sister was so rich, why would they make such a fuss?
How could someone so rich and powerful be interested in their family's melons and dates? Besides, my little sister lives a good life, and my father can't take anything from her. Only my little sister can take the share of the family!
The villagers nearby also gossiped about the two brothers, "Chun Ni is worthy of marrying into the city, she is really generous!"
"Didn't they say Chunni's in-laws were having a hard time? How come they suddenly became rich?" Some people were puzzled.
"My husband's family may be careful about their lives and spend money wisely. They may look poor at ordinary times, but they don't care about those things. Look at them now, who dares to say that they are not living a good life!" Some of the aunts in the village seemed to see through it.
"We are just people who live a normal life. We don't like to show off, so some people think we are poor!"
These words are full of innuendos, implying that Chunni's brothers are short-sighted. They think that others are really poor just because they are frugal and live carefully.
I heard that Chunni's husband's family is made up of working people and her eldest uncle is a college graduate. They are very promising. If they are poor, what are they?
Chunni is now very proud of herself in the village! No one will ever say that she has a bad fate again. Marrying a city guy is worse than marrying a country bumpkin!
After Chunni divided the land and the mountain, she led everyone to measure the land and determine the acreage.
The boundaries around the mountain were clearly confirmed with everyone, and both parties signed and stamped the contract in triplicate. Chunni took the contract and went home.
My sister-in-law was standing at the door. She saw Chunni from a distance and came to greet her with a smile.
"Sister, I knew you had to come back to see our mom! You and your brother-in-law can have lunch at my house, and we'll stew a chicken! Bring some food from the hospital to the baby to nourish him. He looks so pitiful, but he's suffered so much. The third child has been saying that he wants to come back to see the baby. The land has been divided, so we'll come back tomorrow!" The sister-in-law flattered, and she was no longer the one who was afraid that the eldest sister-in-law would come to ask for money.
Chunni smiled and said, "No need, sister-in-law. I'll just talk to mom and come back! My baby is in the hospital, and we have a lot of other things at home!"
"Big sister, you have to eat even if you have children. You and your brother-in-law have been exhausted these past two days. Eat a meal before going back home. How can you go back to your parents' home without eating? You will make people laugh at you!"
Isn't this quite reasonable? Why was Chunni never so enthusiastic when she came before? She even made people laugh at her? She wished they would leave without eating!
Since she got married, it was the first time Chunni saw the other side of her sister-in-law. She used to look down on her and was too lazy to put on a show.
