A Blessed Wife At Home Chapter 1083: Buy land
Twenty acres is neither too much nor too little. Rich families will look down upon it, and ordinary people may not be able to afford it if they want to buy it.
Of course, there are also people who think it is suitable and want to buy it. At this time, they have to work hard.
Qiao Xuan didn't even hesitate and bought the land immediately.
The price of land in the capital is not cheap at all. One acre of land to grow crops costs twenty taels of silver, which is much more expensive than the best paddy fields in Heshan County.
But the soil in the north is very fertile and the flat plains are very flat. It will be very convenient to take care of, and Qiao Xuan thinks it is quite good.
Qiao Xuan was quite satisfied when she got the title deed for twenty acres of land!
Twenty acres, she and Shao Yunduan teased, they had a house and land in the capital, and in a few years they would be able to say that they were people with roots in the imperial city at the foot of the emperor!
She planned to use the twenty acres of land to grow strawberries and potatoes, and the rest to grow some seasonal vegetables and annual fruits such as watermelon, cantaloupe, melon, and passion fruit.
It’s great to be self-sufficient.
While the weather hasn't really gotten cold yet, Qiao Xuan plans to tidy up the twenty acres of land so that they can be planted as soon as the weather warms up next spring.
First of all, the whole place needs to be fenced off. The things she wants to plant are precious and cannot be destroyed by others.
Twenty acres is quite spacious. A few houses can be built on half an acre. There used to be a resting place, and some could be used as tool rooms and warehouses.
Dig a large cellar underground, where the harvested potatoes can be piled.
The entire land must also be divided into pieces, leaving a place for walking, plowing deeply and tidying it up, and then plowing it carefully again in the spring. Planting can be done after the next spring rain.
After planning, purchasing materials and supervising construction, most of the work was left to Songshi.
Song Shi is full of energy and energy.
He finally has something to do and no longer has to be so bored every day!
Perform well, and if you do well, you will have a bright future. He clearly saw that the two masters were very nostalgic. As long as they followed them faithfully, the good times were yet to come!
Song Shi is quite smart. Whenever he encounters something that he doesn’t understand or is unclear about, he will not make his own decision. After he has inquired about it, he will tell Qiao Xuan in detail and ask for Qiao Xuan’s opinion.
This matter was done smoothly.
After eleven or two days like this, Shao Yunduan came home that day and mentioned the Qiao family during a chat with Qiao Xuan. He said that there was a lot of excitement in the Qiao family. It seemed that there was something wrong with Qiao Wei's marriage. She That fiancé somehow got involved with Qiao Kou, and now Mr. Qiao San and his wife are making a fuss over this matter...
Qiao Xuan was greatly surprised when she heard this. ~IndoMTL.com~ The fire of gossip was burning brightly, and she asked Shao Yunduan the inside story and more inside information with bright eyes. She really wanted to hear it.
No gossip arouses her interest more than the gossip about the Qiao family!
She was relieved to see that they were not doing well.
Unfortunately, Shao Yunduan only heard about it once, and he didn't know the details of what happened. After all, he had to work as an errand in the Hanlin Academy, but he didn't have much time to inquire about the gossip of the Qiao family.
Qiao Xuan was a little disappointed, but she also understood that her husband-in-law didn't like to join in such fun.
She can find out for herself!
Qiao Xuan then ordered Song Shi to go around Qiao’s house and invite the servants from nearby families to drink tea, eat melon seeds and chat...
