Farmer’s Little Girl

Chapter 1938: shop

   Chapter 1938

  Xia Rui opened the box, and inside was a pile of silver ingots.

At the beginning, Zhou Yin and Xia Xia’s father and son discussed that he left the farm shop in Shangzhou, including the house, to them, and all the tenants to take care of them. He came back once a year, or every other year. When you come back to take it once, you will also have to sweep the house.

  So Zhou Yin specially reduced the rent by 40%, which was regarded as a reward for them.

  The rent for a year is 18 taels. Every year, Xia Xia puts 18 taels of silver in it, just thinking about waiting someday when someone finds it back, so that he won't lose money and lose his trust.

  In the past fourteen years, their family has not been smooth, but no matter what happens, how difficult it is, they have not moved the money in this box.

  In the words of Xia Xia, the most important thing for a person to live a lifetime is to keep his word.

There are now two hundred fifty-two taels in this box. Xia Xia smiled and said, "There is still a sum of money, which I paid for. I have not been able to protect the fields for your parents over the years. How can I get it? I asked your aunt to go to the shop to get it. You wait for a while and she will come back."

  Man Bao nodded with a smile, and did not decline, "That's a lot of money, so heavy, Aunt Rui will definitely not come back so quickly."

Xia Xia nodded, "Then you sit more and eat here. It's best to go after dinner. I also saw your cousin. Your cousin is studying. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the talent for your grandfather and father to read. , I haven’t read anything famous after reading it for many years..."

  Xia Xia talked for a while and then fell asleep unknowingly.

  Xia Rui looked scared, stretched out his hand to touch his nose, and breathed out a sigh of relief.

  He glanced at Man Bao, Man Bao nodded slightly, and Xia Rui moved the box of money out to her. He said, "Your aunt probably will take a while to come back. You sit and wait for a while."

  Man Bao said: "Uncle Rui, I don't need to give me the 40% of the money."

  She said: "This incident is not considered a breach of faith. It is because my father and mother did not come back on time. You took the risk that you shouldn't have assumed. If you say that you are breaking faith, it is also my parents who broke the faith. Although they were forced to."

  Xia Rui looked at Zhou Man in surprise, but she didn't expect that she would say this.

  Man Bao looked back at the main house, took out a deed from his sleeve and gave it to Xia Rui, and said, “Thanks to your care for so many years, Uncle Rui doesn’t have to rush to move the shop. This shop is my gift to you.”

"How can this work?" If he said that the 40% of the renters had some expectations, this was completely beyond his expectations. Xia Rui pushed back and said: "This is not possible, this shop belongs to you, I can't Yes, if you are embarrassed, how about letting this shop continue to me?"

  Man Bao was stuffed into his hand forcefully, and said with a serious face: "Uncle Rui, I can even give the ancestral land to a clan that hasn't taken care of me, why can't I give you the shop?"

  Xia Rui opened her mouth and said with some shame: "This, how is this the same?"

"It's not the same," Man Bao said with a smile: "I may not have much contact with the clan here in the future, but the tombs of great grandparents and grandparents are still here, and even my children will come back here in the future. Uncle Rui is the only one who can rely on and get close to."

  Xia Rui felt obedient and ashamed in her heart. She wanted to talk several times and stopped.

Man Bao didn't seem to see the same thing. He firmly stuffed the deed into his hands, and said: "There is no need to let the uncle know about this. By the way, I will accept this box of rent. Take care of grandparents."

  After that, he saluted Xia Rui seriously.

  Xia Rui quickly supported her and said: "It doesn't have to be this way, it doesn't have to be this way..."

  Man Bao personally carried a box of silver and went out, waiting for Bai Shan outside to catch it, and almost missed it and fell to the ground.

  He took a breath and asked, "What is this heavy?"

  Man Bao waved his hand calmly, "Money!"

  Bai Shan:...

Xia Rui, who followed behind holding the deed of the house, instantly recovered from her trance. He stepped forward to help them lift. Da Ji had already carried him and put it in the car. Bai Erlang sitting next to the car couldn't help but open the box and glanced at it. .

  Seeing the white silver ingots inside, he couldn't help but be stunned. When he looked at Zhou Man, his eyes were complicated.

  Unconsciously, she is already richer than them. He and Bai Shan were the richest when they were young.

  Man Bao supported Bai Shan in the car and said to Xia Rui, who was standing next to the car: "Bobo Rui, go back. I will see Uncle Gong again before I leave."

Xia Rui responded and took a step back to watch her leave.

  When he returned to the inn, Lao Zhou touched the silver ingot in the box and said, "Xia Family is also your uncle."

  Man Bao nodded, "In fact, they can almost buy a shop with so much money."

  Friday Lang said: "There is more than that shop in your house."

  He said: "The upper and lower floors, with a backyard, are no smaller than our restaurant in Beijing, and the location is good. Even if Shangzhou is not as good as Beijing, the price is not much different."

  After all, the location of their shop in Beijing is actually average, far inferior to the shop in the center of Shangzhou. I don’t know how my uncle bought this shop back then.

  Man Bao didn’t know, but she didn’t feel sorry for giving it to her.

  Lao Zhou nodded, Man Bao said a few days ago that he would send the shop out, so he has passed the heartache period.

  Man Bao looked around and asked, "has the person who went to collect the rent come back?"

  Good luck: "No."

  Man Bao touched his chin and said, "It seems that Chief Xia didn't prepare in advance. He must be very heartbroken."

With heartache again, Patriarch Xia still handed the renter to the two guards who were pulling the car. The matter has already reached this point. There is really no need to make trouble because of this. It’s just that he is puzzled, how could Zhou Man So anxious.

  Everyone was very friendly when she came yesterday. He thought she would only take up the rent after this autumn harvest.

  His son hesitated for a while and said, “When she went to see the graves of her uncles yesterday, she was a little upset, and didn’t say anything when she came back. Is it because of this?”

   Patriarch Xia suddenly realized, after a while, he sighed: "I know, you have time to go to Xu Lichang's place, and tell him Zhou Man has made it clear that he wants to rent this year."

   "Will Xu Lichang blame it?"

Patriarch Xia snorted: "What can he blame? It's what he meant to take a step back. Isn't his rent for these years not enough? And this time he registered in front of the county magistrate. It’s going to cause trouble. In the future, who can tell what will happen in the future? Just go and say that our renter has handed in all the previous years, and he naturally understands."

  His son just responded.

   Patriarch Xia sighed: "I don’t know what Zhou Man’s situation is like in Beijing. I only heard that she is a genius doctor, but it’s a pity that she refuses to change her surname..."

  His son lowered his eyes. The Xia family and Zhou Man didn’t have much love, and the Zhou family was not bad to her. How could she change her surname?

   See you at nine in the evening
