Chapter 53:

The gong in front of Zheng Li's house was knocked again, which was different from Zheng Lizheng's complacency. This time he was obviously sick.
This time it was not his dominance, but it was replaced by Patriarch Xue.
A few chairs were placed on the steps in front of the main house, and all the people present were the most respected people in the village. Only the Patriarch Xue stood, holding dry smoke in one hand, and spoke solemnly to the densely packed villagers below.
"Let's not mention the previous things. No one is wrong. Lao Zhengtou wants to do things for everyone. I will testify about this. There is no such thing as greed, no matter for everyone. Look. He has been in a hurry these past few days. I came to him before, and I haven't been ill for a few days. "
Suddenly, countless eyes brushed up and looked at Zheng Lizheng sitting there. There was nothing bad in his eyes, mostly pity and sigh.
But this pity and sighing placed on Zheng Li's head, it made him a little bit disgusted. But who can he blame? The words of Patriarch Xue really dispelled the resentment of the villagers. Even if the other party really had any thoughts, it was because he was careless and was tricked by the nobles, and now he is mocked by the old rivals.
"Let's not talk about anything else, let everybody waste their time and don't like anyone. Now things are like this, it's useless to just complain. Now there is such a thing in front of us, some people want to buy this hill and sell it in the end. Still not selling? If you sell, the price will certainly not be as high as that of the noble Rouchi, but everyone has a heart in mind, then the mountain is not worth the money. So tell us this thing, do n’t be greedy for those who should n’t own Things, it ’s so easy for money to fall in the sky. It ’s the hard truth to be honest and work-oriented.

"The patriarch is right, if we don't greedy the money, we won't let that noble person play tricks."
"Still greedy."
This sentence clearly sighed and sighed, but it also seemed to sigh Zheng Lizheng. He didn't mock him, but it seemed to him. It's really a savvy life. He stumbled in front of the old horse, exposed his shortcomings in front of the old rival, and was still being discussed by the villagers.
Just when Zheng Lizheng sighed, some villagers on the field asked who wanted to buy it and how much money they made.
Patriarch Xue put a smile on his face and raised his hand to press it. After the villagers calmed down, they said: "This guy we all know, it's our own. It's not like the outsider pits us, after all, the village Folks, know the roots and roots. "
"You said that patriarch, who is it?"
"Yeah, who is so generous to buy this place?"
Then the patriarch Xue said: "It is the dog of Xue Lianxing's second room. He is willing to pay a hundred or two dollars to buy this mountain."
There was a sudden thrill below.
"The dog in the second room of the Lianxing family?"
"That kid didn't go to school to study?"
"Why did he buy that land?"
Patriarch Xue raised his hand and pressed again, only to say: "Well, my old guy can't tell clearly, and let the dog himself talk to everyone."
With his voice, a young man came up from the side, it was the dog of the second house of Xue family.
However, this dog seems to be different from the previous one. Many villagers in Xue Gouzi have seen it before. The child yelled that the appearance was not bad, even if he did n’t like talking, he walked in the village, hey, just Like the country dogs that are everywhere in the village.
Now it's different, the waist is straight, and the style is different. Anyway, the villagers did n’t know one big character, and they did n’t describe it very much. It felt like it was from a local dog to a hunting dog that the hunters specially raised to hunt. The spirit, the temperament and the style of the whole body are different from those of the village at a glance.
I have gone to town to study, and people have been reborn!
Of course, some people recalled the previous competition of Xue Lianxing's family. At that time, Xue Gouzi showed unusualness. Ordinary people would not let the two show talents boast. It's just that it didn't matter to me at that time. Now it's a matter of myself. Looking at the unobtrusive Xue Tingyan standing in front of everyone, I feel extremely cordial.
After Xue Tingyan stood still, he saluted the elders and other village elders first. After winning, the old men all nodded their heads with their beards, and Fang turned to face the villagers below.
"Hello fellow folks and elders, the boy is courteous here." He made a courtesy and straightened his waist. Fang smiled a little shyly: "In fact, the grandfather asked me to say that I can't say anything. I feel that everyone in that hill has spent so much effort, and there is a pity there. It happens that I have two classmates, and the family is in the business. I took the lead and took them to buy it. I ca n’t grow food but grow vegetables. Or raising chickens and ducks, planting fruit trees or something, so that you do n’t lose money. "
After a pause, he said again: "Of course, if there are other resettlement in the village, just as the kid hasn't said this, everything is in the village's interests first."
After he finished speaking, he retreated to the side, and the Patriarch Xue said again: "This is almost the case. This time, it can't be the same as last time. One or two people will take the lead. Everyone says what to do, what to do, let me go to court. This child is also to solve problems for everyone, even if he is doing business with his classmates, where to do it or not, he must come to our village, the Shangshui Village in front, and then say that there is Niujiaoling, which is farther away from the town than our village. Recently, people will choose us to come here, but also trust the court. "
The following talk was full of talk and whispering.
For a while, someone said something like: "If not, just sell it. There are no two hundred and two hundred, one hundred two is also good, everyone can always sort."
"Anyway, the hill is useless there, and the careless little baby ran in and was cut by thorns."
"Don't say I'm short of dew, the broken things are too big when the wood is burnt, the fire is dried and burned with a fire and it's gone."
Some people take the lead, and naturally there are more people who are below.
Patriarch Xue asked again if anyone had any objections, and where did the villagers have any objections. Although the family is less than two or two cents, and hundreds of texts are also money, it is not always busy to fall a few sweats these days, and the fart can not be a strong one.
"Since everyone agrees, I asked Ting Yan to take the money to Lizheng. When Zheng Lizheng went to get the deed, everyone would come here to get the silver."
"Xing Xing Xing, the old patriarch has spoken. What else do we have to say, even if we have the blessing of the dog this time."
"What kind of dog is still called, and the name was changed, and it was called Ting Yan." Someone interrupted.
"Yes, yes, it's called Ting Yan. Ting Yan is really capable now. Just find two classmates and you will be able to raise one hundred or two dollars to solve our problems."
"This is terrible."
This is what happens every time the village discusses things, and it babbles at the end of the business, but it is full of words, but today there is a central figure, that is, the second room of Xue Lianxing ’s family.
Naturally, some people compare Xue Juncai and Xue Tingyan of the big house, let alone be compared before, and now it is even more incomparable.
In the corner of the crowd, the Xue family stood there.
Xue Qingshan couldn't believe it, let alone Yang's eyes were almost startled, and Master Xue's face was also very complicated. For such a big event, Xue Tingyan didn't say hello to the family, but went to the patriarch before.
Sun's glanced at the big room and said to his man: "Ting Yan really has the ability and is practical, unlike some people who just make a fuss."
When the speech fell, someone came to speak with Master Xue.
"Lian Xing, this grandson in your family is really amazing. He will definitely be a great talent in the future."
"With the ability, the future is limitless."
"Lianxing will enjoy a great blessing in the future."
All the old men in the village are talking about the same age as Grandpa Xue, or an elder with a family name. Grandfather Xue could only laugh and cope with it vaguely.
On the side, the couple's face was even more ugly.
...
Here, Patriarch Xue smiled to Zheng Lizheng: "Lizheng brother, this matter will be entrusted to you.
Zheng Lizheng was stuck in his mouth with old blood, and good people did it for the surname Xue. He lost his face in disgrace and said nothing.
The point is that he can't refuse, who called Master Mao who killed that day actually pulled the leg of the sheep with his dog and mistreated him!
"You can rest assured that this will be done soon."
Patriarch Xue nodded with a smile and patted his shoulder again, before Shi Shiran left.
Zheng Lizheng is another old blood.
Patriarch Xue came out of the house and went home. Xue Tingyan accompanied him.
When he arrived at the door, Patriarch Xue turned his head and looked at him: "Okay, don't need to accompany me as an old man."
"Don."
"You are very good, have won glory for our Xue family."
Xue Tingyan smiled embarrassedly: "My grandfather, I don't mean to see that everyone is in a hurry. For these things are not worthwhile, they can do their best if they can."
Patriarch Xue patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, you little bunny don't have to pose in front of my old man. No matter what you want to do, the grandfather is right with our Xue surnames first!"
After he finished speaking, he hummed into the courtyard door in an unknown key. It's been a long time since I raised my eyebrows and exhaled, seeing Zheng Lizheng's stubborn old face, Patriarch Xue could eat more bowls of rice today.
Xue Tingyan stood in front of the door.
Everything comes first to the interests of the surname Xue.
To add glory to the Xue family, it would be better if they could suppress Zheng by the way. It was through this that Xue Tingyan easily invited the Xue patriarch to come forward.
This is the case of the Xue patriarch. As before, he stood up to Xue Qingshan. As before, for the sake of Xue's face, he forced the old man Xue to send only Xue Gouzi. Just like Xue Qingshan invited him, he chose to stand in Xue On the side of Qingshan, as if this time he did not hesitate to make himself happy.
Xue Tinglan smiled, turned and left.
Zheng Lizheng is very easy to handle things, but also knows that it can not be delayed, the land deed was managed the next day.
The villagers gathered at his house to collect money, and Zhaoer did not go, and Xue Tingyan did not go either.
"Give you."
Xue Tingyan handed over the title deed with the big red stamp on it to Zhao'er, but Zhao'er was not very happy.
It is correct to say that even these days she has been very worried.
"What's wrong?" Until then, Xue Tingyan realized later that he was too busy these two days.
Zhao'er suddenly sighed and glanced at him: "Do you know why I raised dozens of more silver, did you give it together?"
Xue Tingyan pursed his mouth, said nothing, and put on a look that he would like to hear.
But for a while, Zhaoer didn't know what to say, just said: "Don't do this in the future."
Such tricks made Xue Tingyan strangely unaccustomed, and also reminded him of the quarrel he had with Zhaoer in the dream. After the two became married, they had a lot of quarrels. Although Zhaoer did not want to quarrel with him, he always suffocated not quarreling with her, but the two were always not in harmony.
He insisted that he thought he was right. She would perfunctory if she could perfunctoryly, if she couldn't perfunctory, she would be silent, but what to do or what to do. He was particularly angry that she did not consider herself, and she was not happy, and sometimes it was like this for some reason.
"Do you think I did something wrong?" His voice tightened.
Zhaoer sighed in his heart and smiled strongly: "Let's stop talking about this, in a word, it's a good thing."
In fact, this matter also blames her. The little man can't do it alone. Afterwards, the wind and the waves helped her. However, she didn't expect that things would evolve into this way. It should be correct that Xue Tingyan's wrist was too high, and she couldn't take any precautions.
She was pleased in the first half of the incident, but when she went to the mountain and looked at the villagers who worked the mountain but with a smile on her face, this joy suddenly disappeared without a trace.
She did not know why she was unhappy and guilty, and felt that she had fooled the big guy for her own self. No one owes anyone. Why do they play the whole village because they want to get what they want?
This means of fooling people at will makes Zhaoer palpitate. Therefore, she went to Xue Qinghuai and others to find things that she could do with only fifty-two, but she negotiated with others to raise fifty-two in the name of joining.
"You think I was wrong?"
"Dog, let's ..."
"You think I did something wrong!" This sentence is affirmative. Xue Tingyan's mouth twitched tighter, his jaws closed tightly, and his eyes were fixed on her.
"No, I don't think you are wrong, I know you are doing something. I just ..."
"What are you just?"
"I just think we shouldn't fool people at random, whatever we want, we should use legitimate means instead of turning others around ... you don't know when I went up the mountain, I saw everyone happy ... I, my heart is particularly uncomfortable ... I think people must be in awe, and they can't just play around with people clapping because they are clever ... This kind of feeling is particularly bad ... "
Zhao'er said incoherently, and kept staring closely at her Xue Tingyan, the dark mist in his eyes became thicker and thicker, and a low air pressure enveloped him.
But Zhaoer had not noticed, and still murmured in disorder: "Dog, sister knows you are smart. Even if they all say you are not as good as Xue Juncai, but I know my dog ​​is smarter than him. But smart should not make you Rely on the battle, you have to put your wits on the road ... You are such a worry to me, today we fool others, and one day they are stronger than us, and fool us. If we always use this method, we will always When I tasted it, my sister was afraid that you would do something even more terrible, which caused a huge disaster ... "
What else is there to do, do you think it's okay to control Chaogang and play with imperial power?
In fact, she was right, he was such a person in his bones. There is no kingship, no discipline, all self-interest is priority, and no matter how others are, no one is hurt.
Zhao'er still didn't read the book. Many Dadao reasoned that she understood but couldn't say it, but Xue Tingyan understood what she meant from her words.
His reaction was sniffy, even disdainful to explain. But listening to her whispering, he thought more, but she actually cared about him.
So she had fifty or two more silver, but she was afraid that she would be found infamous on her own day? So she knew he didn't want to hear this, she said it anyway.
The low-pressure storm disappeared silently, and Xue Tingyan relaxed the muscles of his cheeks, and his tight mouth also relaxed.
"Then have you thought about, what proper means do we use to get this piece of land?" He said suddenly, interrupting Zhaoer's murmur.
"we……"
"Yes, we can go directly to Zheng Lizheng, and it should take more effort to take down this land. But have you thought about it in the future? I can see that you value this land very much, and you must be thinking about it. Small. With your abilities, you should be able to make a lot of money, but have you ever thought about it, if you really make a lot of money by this land, what if someone is jealous and regrets making trouble? Just one or two, if the whole village has What if half of them are red? "
Zhaoer wanted to say something, but Xue Tingyan covered his mouth: "Don't say anything with land title or something, you should understand what is the rule in this country!"
Zhaoerru was struck by lightning.
Yes, this place in the country is different from other places. It is also useful to say that the rules of the government are useful, but it is useless. Sometimes the government's deterrent power is not as good as the men in the family, and the people are more powerful.
Zhaoer had seen two villages who robbed water and killed people in the dry years. They killed them and killed them. The government could not control them because there were too many people at that time and they did n’t know who killed them. It's just that the elders of the two villages are sitting together. If you say one thing to me, one life is solved.
She also saw that there was no male but the man died and there were only orphans and widows. The clan decided to forcibly cede the house and land of this family to relatives of the same surname.
"Zheng Lizheng has always regarded Xue as the enemy, even if we have spent a lot of effort to buy the land, if someone really thinks about it in the future, he will definitely help behind. And do n’t forget the big room, do n’t forget Grandpa And milk. These people are elders, as long as we do n’t leave here for one day, and we still have the surname Xue, we have to guard.
"I know you want this piece of land, and only then use the means, just to remove the worries for you. If you don't like it, I don't want to do it in the future." At the end of the speech, it turned into a sad face of grievance, he His eyes were bleak, like tarnished gems.
Seeing this, Zhao'er suddenly panicked: "I didn't mean you were wrong, I was just--" She was anxious to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say: "Oh, it's all me bad, I shouldn't misunderstand After you, I ’m just afraid that you ’re bad ... "
Xue Tingyan suddenly smiled, his eyes lit up again, and there was a gentle light inside. It seems a little unfamiliar with the world, and some cunning: "But don't be afraid, wait for me to take the exam in the show. We don't need to use these methods when I take the exam in the show."
"Dog ..."
"You misunderstood me, you have to compensate me. Hey, I always want you to kiss me, you just kiss me as compensation."
Uh……
