“I didn’t dote on you for nothing!” Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia were especially happy. “When the meat is done, you can send it along with the meat.”

“Okay!”

Jiang Yue didn’t even need to turn around to know how happy Xue Wufu was.

“Wufu,” it was Xue Dafu’s voice. “You earned this silver. What other plans do you have? Tell me.”

“I don’t have any other plans. I just want to give Grandfather five silver and then use the rest at home.” Xue Wufu said. “You guys do as you see fit.”

!!

Xue Dafu began to mutter, “They say that if you have money, you should buy land. Having land is important for farmers. Our family has a few acres of barren land, but we don’t receive any taxes and we’re living well. The land is all rented, and we’ve been feeling uneasy growing things on it… If we can use this silver to buy as many plots of land as we can, how great would that be? We can pass it on to our descendants, but our house…”

At this point, Xue Dafu sighed. “There are only a few rooms. Your third brother is already twenty years old. Although the marriage is already set, he should still marry the girl as soon as possible. Although he said that there’s no hurry, this is the truth. If that’s the case, we should at least spare a room for your third brother and his wife. But there are no rooms in the house that can be reserved…”

“And your fourth brother,” Xue Dafu continued, “He’s eighteen years old. He isn’t young anymore, and he’ll get married sooner or later… I was thinking, why don’t we build a bigger house first so that each of you can have a room? Then, we can use the remaining money to buy land? ”

Jiang Yue only listened in on the conversation and didn’t say anything.

Xue Erfu said, “Father, let’s buy the fields first. The good fields that we rented cost twelve silver per acre. Even if we don’t give Grandfather five silver, it won’t change much. We’ll buy as many as we can. We’ll feel more at ease with that. Didn’t you say that fields are important for farmers? Houses will break and fall after construction. It might be possible to pass it on to one or two generations, but it won’t be possible to pass it on to many generations. It’s better to buy land.”

“Also,” Xue Erfu continued, “My third brother has a bad temper. If he says that he’s not in a hurry to get married, then he’s really not in a hurry. Besides, we can’t force him. Didn’t he say that he would build a grain-removing workshop before the early rice gets harvested? By then, the workshop would be able to earn money, and it would not be too late to build a house. But the land will wait for no one. The land in front of our village is so close to our house. If we don’t buy it early, it will be bought by someone else one day. It will be difficult for us to buy good land close to our house. ”

“Erfu is right!”

“Yes.” Xue Wufu also felt that his second brother’s words made sense.

Jiang Yue still did not turn around to say anything, but she could tell that Xue Erfu was indeed more opinionated than Xue Yifu.

“This…” Xue Dafu wavered. He also wanted to use this money to buy land, but after a long while, he didn’t give a definite answer. “Let me think about it.”

This matter was too big, and he couldn’t make a decision at once.

Hearing this, Jiang Yue felt that she still did not have enough money to provide for this family.

If she had enough money, she could buy many plots of land and build a big house, so there was no need to think of which to choose first.

However, she still didn’t look back at the central room and continued to sit on the threshold.
