"Sister Song..."
Tangyuan cried out pitifully.
"What's the matter?"
Song Yuehua looked at him.
Wang Xiaoye helped explain, "Tangyuan has been saving money to buy that house."
Song Yuehua laughed and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. We have to strike first to gain the upper hand."
If we only consider the land and the house, the courtyard is indeed a bit expensive at 20 taels, but since all the things inside are there, it is quite cheap when you do the math.
Many times, Old Man Ren wanted to take the house back.
It was Wang Xiaoye who took a fake deed, saying that he had already bought the property, and then sent the man back.
Only Song Yuehua and a few people around her knew about this matter.
Wang Xiaoye was about to buy the dumplings, but unexpectedly Song Yuehua showed up in the middle of the process, which was actually a good thing.
Song Yuehua took out a 20-liang silver note and handed it to her, "Come to the village head's house later with the house deed, we'll sign a deed, and then have the village head go to the county government to transfer the ownership."
After Wang Xiaoye received the banknote, he took out the house deed from the house and said, "Keep the house deed first. I'll go to Zhou's house in the evening."
Tangyuan was really sad to watch the house go to someone else.
But he had just bought a donkey and now had little money in his pocket, so he didn't know how long it would take to buy the yard.
Song Yuehua comforted him, "When you make money, buy a piece of land first, and then save money to build a house slowly. You are still so young, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Sister Song..."
Song Yuehua didn't argue with him and went to Zhou's house with the house deed.
Zhou family.
"Is Uncle Ergui at home?" Song Yuehua asked through the courtyard gate.
Zhang poked her head out of the room and rubbed her hands on her apron. "Ergui has been out for a while, is there anything wrong?"
After Song Yuehua came in, she said, "I bought Ren Xiaoxi's yard and want to turn the backyard into a chicken coop."
Ren Xiaoxi's house is the same one that used to belong to Grandma Lan.
Zhang didn't understand any of this and just asked Song Yuehua to sit down.
"Ergui is not at home, but your uncle Dafu is at home. I will go and call him over."
After a while, Lin came in from outside carrying a basket of vegetables, and as soon as she entered the yard, she saw Song Yuehua.
"Daya, how come you have time to come over? It's perfect. Let's have dinner at my house tonight."
Lin put the basket in the yard and wiped the sweat off her face after coming in.
"I didn't want to eat. I originally came here to look for Uncle Ergui to renovate the chicken coop, but he hasn't come back yet."
Song Yuehua picked up the teapot on the table and poured her a glass of water.
"Change the chicken shed?"
Lin asked, "You want to change your chicken farm?"
"It's not my place," Song Yuehua said, "It's Ren Xiaoxi's house. I bought it and want to turn the backyard into a chicken coop. I'll give it to Xiaocao as a dowry when the time comes."
Lin was stunned for a moment, "The chicken coop... is for Xiaocao?"
Song Yuehua nodded and said, "My cousin is getting married, so I have to add some dowry. I originally wanted to prepare some food and daily necessities, but I always feel that these things are not practical."
"I thought that instead of Xiaohu running a cooking business, it would be better to give Xiaocao a chicken coop and let the young couple figure out whether to raise chickens or pigs. If they work together, their relationship will get better and better, and their lives will be prosperous."
Lin felt a little embarrassed after hearing these words. "Your gift is too generous. If Xiaohu really wants something, it should be us as his parents who should buy it for him."
"Aunt Lin, your intentions are good, but even if you arrange everything, it may not necessarily lead to a good outcome," Song Yuehua whispered, "You have to live your own life, so that you can be closer to each other after marriage."
"That shouldn't be your turn." Lin still felt that Song Yuehua wasted money.
Song Yuehua shook her head. "Since Xiaocao calls me cousin, I should buy some things for her. Please don't say anything unbelievable."
Lin didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhang brought hot brown sugar water. After they drank it, Lin said, "Xiaocao is so lucky to have a cousin like you. She is better than our brat."
"What did that brat do again?"
Zhou Dafu came in from outside and asked as soon as he heard this.
Lin pulled a stool for him to sit down, and then told him the story again, "Dad, what do you think about this?"
"I don't think the Ren family's yard is that big, and you can't raise many chickens even if you build a chicken coop." Zhou Dafu said.
Song Yuehua said, "Raising a few dozen is enough for now. The yard is built in a remote area. If we want to expand it in the future, we just need to buy some more land and raise as many as we want."
Zhou Dafu said thoughtfully, "If you just want to build a chicken coop, you can just buy a few acres of vacant land. Why buy the house?"
"The house can be rented out, but raising chickens and pigs also requires someone to look after them. It won't work without a house," Song Yuehua explained.
His cousin was preparing a dowry for his younger sister, so he didn't want to ask again and again.
"I'll get the land and house deeds ready for you in a few days. You don't have to ask Ergui for the chicken coop. When the old man and I are free, we can get a few people to build it."
Zhou Dafu said, "You spend so much money, you can't not let others contribute some effort."
Song Yuehua smiled and said, "In that case, let Uncle Dafu and Grandpa Zhou take care of it."
After returning home, Song Yuehua breathed a sigh of relief.
It cost a total of 20 taels of silver to buy this house. If it can give Xiaocao a sense of security and help her live a good life, it will be worth it.
A few days later, Song Xiaocao came to the Song family with the house deed in her hand.
"Cousin..."
As soon as Song Xiaocao saw Song Yuehua, she burst into tears, "Cousin..."
Song Yuehua took the title deed, looked at it, and returned it to her after confirming that there was no problem.
"This house will belong to you from now on."
