章節 39: 39. Troublemakers Came
The land was bought, but if only Xu Ran and Liu Tong worked together, they would never be able to complete the task of farming, especially when it was still wasteland. Besides, Xu Ran himself knew very little about farming, so they had to hire someone else to work for them.
It was much faster to plow with cattle, but now they didn't have the plow, and he couldn't design and make farm tools by himself. It was clear that they were facing great difficulties.
At night, Xu Ran and Liu Tong had a discussion. They both felt that they could only hire others to open up the land.
But now the family had little money. They had to wait until all the new chili paste was produced and sold.
When the time came this year, they planned to open up some land themselves to grow radishes. As for the other land, they decided to wait until next spring.
Not only radishes, but also potatoes could be grown in winter, so that their family would have potatoes to eat at the beginning of next spring. In addition, they could plant some houttuynia cordata, and when they grew up, they could sell them in next spring.
The more Xu Ran thought about all these, the happier he felt! He felt that he would definitely become a big landlord if everything developed according to his ideas.
How bright the future would be!
The imagination was beautiful, but the reality was far away from such a beautiful scene.
At the moment, the news of Xu Ran's land purchase reached the Xu Family.
"Daddy, did you hear that the eldest brother bought 30 mu of wasteland today? Where do you think he got that much money? " Xu Cheng asked. Today, he heard from the villagers that his eldest brother was very capable and that he had made so much money in a few months. He hated it very much.
He had always believed that he was the favorite child of his dad and daddy. However, in other people's eyes, he couldn't compare to his elderest brother in everything. Since he was a child, he had been considered to be inferior to his brother in learning, in appearance, in words and in deeds. Even after he was married, his spouse was commented to be worse than his brother's.
That was why he was so cruel that he poisoned his eldest brother into a fool the day before he went to take the examination. He thought his brother's future was over, but he didn't expect that his brother married the bitch, Liu Tong. After that, they not only had children, but also his eldest brother recovered and was no longer a fool after their family separation. It was only three months since they left, but they had bought a land as large as 30 mu. Xu Cheng was so angry about it that he gritted his teeth.
As soon as he heard that Xu Ran had bought land and even so much land, Elder Daddy Xu, who had been sitting there, immediately stood up with a shocked look on his face, "What? That son of bitch had bought land as large as 30 mu? Where did he get so much money? Should he come to pay homage to his dad and daddy when he is rich? However, he just spent the money on land himself? "
Xu Cheng nodded, "I just heard from a villager that Yamen runners had come to measure the land. I asked him which family's land. He said it was my eldest brother's, and he told me that my brother was very capable because he had saved so much money to buy 30 mu of land in only three months. Daddy, it was 30 mu of land! Where did eldest brother get so much money? "
"Yes. Where did he get so much money? Our family has only three mu of land and 3 mu of field. No. I must go to see him. Why can he have so much land? His daddy is still alive here!"
Elder Daddy Xu was going out while talking. Xu Cheng followed him closely. Even Zhang Yue, who just entered the door, heard it and went with them.
Xu Ran and his family had just had supper. They didn't expect that some people would come to trouble them even when it was dark. Moreover, they were those terrible relatives of theirs.
Hearing the shouting and swearing outside, Xu Ran really wanted to go out and slap his daddy in the face. He was really the most abominable person he had ever seen, who even cursed his son like this. Such a person was worse than a brute. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs.
Xu Ran opened the door, "Tongtong, take the two kids to sleep first. I'll go out and take a look."
Elder Daddy Xu's roar along the way had awakened many people who had already fallen asleep. Most of them had come out to watch the fun, while some of them were angry and cursed them directly.
But Elder Daddy Xu paid no attention to them. Both Xu Cheng and Zhang Yue were thick-skinned, too.
When they arrived at the door of Xu Ran's bamboo house, they were followed by groups of people.
Xu Ran didn't even open the gate of the courtyard this time. He just said to Elder Daddy Xu, "Daddy, it's dark now. It's not convenient for you to come out at night. And there's no place for you to live in my shabby house here. You can go back first! If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow, okay? Look at the villagers behind you. They also need to sleep. "
Many people there responded to Xu Ran. Though they wanted to watch the fun, it was indeed too late.
Someone in the crowd said, "Xu Houcai's spouse, you have been noisy the whole night. Are you afraid that others will not know you are harassing your son? Let's go to bed, everyone! It's really a pity for Xu Ran to have such a daddy. "
Then many villagers echoed his ideas and left.
Elder Daddy Xu led Xu Cheng and Zhang Yue away in dismay. He knew that if he stayed, he would really be considered to make trouble for his son, which was really not good.
