"Come on, be a good boy, wash up and sleep in your room. Da Lang and I will carry the both of us. You don't have to worry about anything else. " Guan Shuyuan stopped her from carrying the things, and chased her back to her room without saying a word.
The current Guan Shuyuan couldn't wait to give her all the good things in the world. In her heart, she had always felt that the matter between her niece and Zhou Aoxuan was not going well.
But Chen Ziming was very persistent, he pulled down his face and stared at her, "Are you not going to listen to what Uncle has to say? Hurry up and get on the car. If you continue to be like this, how stubborn will you be?
Being lectured by him, Chen Nianran stuck out his tongue and obediently got on the carriage. Da Lang who was at her side also made a face at her, and waved to bid his farewell.
Because he woke up late in the morning, Chen Nianran did not doze off again on the way. The closer she got to home, the lighter her heart became. Some of the unhappiness from before slowly disappeared.
"If you go down, I'll bring these up. You just... Just bring that cotton bag. " When he got off the carriage, Chen Ziming insisted on taking everything back.
The Fifth Sister was growing flowers at home, and when she heard Fourth Sister's voice, she ran over from the backyard to take a look.
"Big Sis, you're back. Ah, so many things." Looking at the large and small bags of things, the little Fifth Sister quickly took them.
After helping put everything back home, Chen Ziming drank some water and was about to leave.
When he got up, he looked at Chen Nianran in embarrassment, and in the end, bit the bullet and said, "Girl, Fifth Young Master is indeed not the same person as us, so you … Forget it. Let's just pretend we didn't know this person. If you have any difficulties, tell me about it with uncle and your aunt. "
With just that one sentence, Chen Ziming fled far away as if he was escaping.
Chen Nianran, who was standing at the door, stared at his retreating back with an unfathomable expression.
When the little Fifth Sister heard this brainless remark, she somewhat puzzledly looked at Chen Ziming's back that was hurriedly leaving, "Eh, our uncle is the same as well. I was just preparing to cook. "
"Sis, Uncle, what does he mean? What relation do you have with him, the Fifth Young Master? " The little Fifth Sister's innocent eyes widened.
When Chen Nianran turned around again, her smile returned to normal, "About that, Big Uncle has matters to attend to, because Da Lang is going to run away and help him, so he has to hurry back to prepare. It's good to have dinner another day. As for the Fifth Young Master, it was the last time he went to sell his mooncake, he helped a lot, after this matter is over, let's not talk about it anymore. "Good girl, tidy up your things."
Although little Fifth Sister had secretly looked at Chen Nianran a few times when she was packing her things, she still counted those things as per usual and put aside the gifts she was going to give to someone. As usual, there was a faint smile on her face, causing others to feel at ease. Thus, she felt at ease. Perhaps, it was just her Eldest Uncle worrying about Da Lang.
It shouldn't be because of Big Sis.
After distributing the gifts, Chen Nianran started to count the silver coins.
This time, he had asked for a total of two thousand taels of silver from the city.
After giving it to Guan Shuyuan's family, she still had 1500 gold.
Originally, Chen Nianran had wanted to share it equally. But Chen Ziming felt that Chen Nianran was the one who suggested the idea, and, planning, finding and so on. All of these were things he was talking about, to be able to earn a few hundred silver coins with her, it was a matter of time.
Chen Ziming did not take the other money. As long as he had three people's share, he would get 30%!
thirty to seventy percent, Chen Nianran got seventy percent, and the Chen Ziming family got thirty percent. However, even if it was 30%, their family still received several hundred silver taels. A few hundred liang of silver. Just selling them for a year without any accidents would earn her over a hundred taels of silver. If there were any mishaps, it would be good if she could remain even that year. Because of this, after getting the silver, Guan Shuyuan kept mumbling about how she had struck it rich.
When Chen Nianran was calculating the debt at the side, the little Fifth Sister also came over to see her doing it. After Chen Nianran finished counting the silver, she followed.
"Nine hundred …" 999 … 1000... "Sixteen hundred …"
By the end, the little Fifth Sister was dumbfounded.
She raised her head and looked at Chen Nianran blankly, "Sis, are we dreaming? We... We really earned more than a thousand silver taels just by making mooncakes? " More than a thousand taels! Heavens, if he ate sparingly, he would have enough for a lifetime.
The little Fifth Sister who had gone through so much pain still felt like she was dreaming.
After all, a year ago, they were still worried about their family's lack of money and the fate of being sold cheaply. But now, a year later, not only were they no longer worried about their fate of being sold cheaply, they even had more than a thousand taels of silver.
In the eyes of the little Fifth Sister, this was really like a dream, everything in front of her was unreal.
Compared to her excitement, Chen Nianran was much calmer.
He shook the banknotes in his hand, "This little bit of money is only the beginning. What I have said before, I will let you live a good life. He finally had the first portion of capital he needed. Next, he had to make people pay attention to the matters of the fields. Even though there was only one path that led to the main road, it was still a path that led to the main road. I really don't know how much the village's land is priced at.
A philistine knows his profession, and he knows what to do. However, if they were to negotiate a business deal, they would have to give the broker some fees.
In this undeveloped place, the business of the philistine was the best place for many to buy land and houses.
"We want to buy land, Sis?" the little Fifth Sister asked excitedly.
"En, buying land. Earth is food gold. This land is our foundation. We don't need to be rich in the city, we can just let it be the landlady of this village. "With land, we don't need to be hungry. With land, we don't need to worry about being sold cheaply."
"Mmm, good land and good farmland. Sis, then let's buy farmland. Buy farmland." I will ask about the things that you asked Village Officer about a while ago. Elder sister, your body is very special right now. There are some things that I should try to do. " The little Fifth Sister took the initiative to invite Ying over.
This made Chen Nianran a little surprised. One had to know that the little Fifth Sister had always been very sensible and obedient. Talking in front of others made her look very elegant and proper. But today, she took the initiative to ask Cherry to do some serious work … This was truly the first time it had happened.
"Yo, our Little Wu, not only can speak, he can also see the situation, and now he can even shoulder a part of the world." Alright, our youngest son is also a sensible girl. If you go and find Village Officer on this matter, I will see it. "
Being praised by her, the little Fifth Sister's face was completely red.
"Sis, you're teasing me again. I just think that I can do what elder sister can do as well. Didn't our mother always look down on our daughter's family? We have to do it well, let her see how successful it is.
"I also want to be like elder sister. Being a woman who can support a family, I don't want to be a woman who has a short vision and no discernment like our mother."
After the little Fifth Sister finished speaking, she walked out of the house with her head bowed down and looked for Village Officer with red eyes.
"My Fifth Sister has just matured." Behind him, Chen Nianran faintly sighed. However, Fifth Sister was so shocked that she almost fell to the ground. Her fourth sister loved to tease her more and more. However, Little Wu had to work hard to keep up with her family.
That night, Chen Nianran distributed the items that she bought from the city to everyone. When Niu Niu received the few feet of cloth from her, she waved her hand and said, "No, no. We had already added two sets of clothes when we arrived. They're all still there." This new cloth is for the two little misses to wear. I am a middle-aged woman, I can wear anything. "
Chen Nianran glared at her, "Sister-in-law, you keep it. I gave these to you, as well as to our big brother and two children. Even though you all did things for me, I treat you all with sincerity. These clothes aren't worth much money. If you don't accept it, I'll really get angry. "You must feel embarrassed to take away some of the fabric, and be more quick-witted and diligent in the future. As long as you do a good job, I won't let you guys down."
The servants wanted to coax them, not suppress them with power. Power can make people listen to it. However, Huai Rou can receive the true heart.
Of course, only a family like the Niu family would be able to accomplish such a feat. If it was that ungrateful person, he would probably give even more. He also felt that this was something that the master was willing to give, something that he had earned by his own ability.
Niu Niu still wanted to refuse, but Chen Nianran raised his eyebrows, "Sister-in-law, if you want to push me again, I'll just throw this fabric into the pit of fire and burn it."
With such a resolute attitude, Ox-Head didn't dare to refuse. However, deep inside, he felt grateful toward his young master. It was not a matter of the clothes, but the attitude of the owner.
This world had always had a strong standard of power.
Being a servant meant being inferior to others. One would kowtow and pay respects to their master sooner or later. Only when their master gave them a smile would they feel at ease. How many people could Chen Nianran, who treated servants as brothers and sisters, possibly find?
Everyone was overjoyed when they received the gift.
During this time, the little Fifth Sister had also gone to find Village Officer, who said that he needed someone to help him ask.
"Sis, when I said I wanted to find someone to ask about the purchase of the land, Village Officer looked at me strangely. Especially Village Officer's beautiful wife, he looked at me for a long time. I was embarrassed to look, but then I slowly revealed that my uncle saw that it was not easy for us in the countryside, so he asked us to help him get more land.
