235. Chapter 235: Buying Land

"Buying land?"

Hearing this suggestion from Jiang Xiaoxiao, Jiang Wei couldn't help but be stunned.

"Mother, our family has lived in the village for so long, we can't always have no fields." Jiang Xiaoxiao said.

For farmers, fields were precious things passed down from generation to generation, the root of farmers' survival. Unless it was a last resort, they must not sell them.

With fields, even if they encountered more bitter and difficult things, they could have a trace of room for turning back.

Look, the Li family had become like this, and they could still earn a large sum of money by selling land, and could even rely on this money to get Li Shoude out.

Jiang Xiaoxiao naturally knew Li Family Old Man's intention for selling land.

However, this didn't hinder her decision to buy these fields.

These thirty mu of land couldn't be counted as the best fertile fields, but the soil was fertile enough, and growing food like rice and wheat was no problem.

Plus, she would irrigate it with ability water. In less than a year, it would definitely become the best fertile field.

The best fertile field started at three taels of silver. Her family taking these thirty mu of land for two taels of silver wasn't a loss.

The most important point was that the land her family bought, it would be difficult for Li Family Old Man to buy it back later...

"Okay, since you want it, then we will buy it." Jiang Wei didn't hesitate too much, took the silver, and took Jiang Xiaoxiao out to find the Li Zheng.

With the Li Zheng as a witness, the Li family didn't dare to play any tricks and obediently handed over the land deed.

At first, when Li Family Old Man saw that the people buying the land were the Jiang mother and daughter, he was a bit reluctant and didn't want to sell it to them.

But thinking that no one in the whole village was willing to buy his land, and even if there were those who were willing, they probably couldn't take out this money, so he simply sold it to them.

Anyway, when he had money, he would buy the fields back... Li Family Old Man planned naively, without considering at all whether the Jiang mother and daughter would sell the land back to him given the relationship between his Li family and them.

After signing and pressing the seal, Jiang Wei paid the silver and took the land deed home.

Wait until tomorrow to go to town, get the new land deed stamped at the county yamen, and keep a copy for the record. By then, even if the Li family wanted to go back on their word and take back these thirty mu of land, there would be no way.

When Jiang Xiaoxiao returned home, she keenly smelled a faint smell of blood in the air.

She widened her eyes suddenly and rushed toward her room.

The speed was so fast that Jiang Wei couldn't pull her back.

She looked up at the balcony on the second floor of her home.

She also smelled the smell of blood; it was coming from the balcony on the second floor.

By the time Jiang Xiaoxiao arrived, she saw a wounded pigeon lying quietly on the desk placed on the balcony on the second floor.

Sitting beside it was Shen Que, and A Huang, who was eyeing the pigeon on the table covetously.

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

Her gaze fell on the pigeon's wounded and bleeding wing, which was clearly scratched by a tiger's claw.

Jiang Xiaoxiao endured the urge to kick A Huang away, went up, grabbed the tiger's pointed ears, and began to lecture: "I think your skin is itchy, you don't do any proper work all day, only know how to mess around, now even the pigeons in the sky are not spared!?"

"Awoo~"

The half-grown tiger called out aggrievedly, but its round tiger eyes still stared at the pigeon on the table relentlessly.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's gaze followed, and only then did she notice that a bamboo tube the thickness of a little finger was tied to the pigeon's leg.

This is... a carrier pigeon?

Jiang Xiaoxiao's gaze immediately shifted to Shen Que opposite, and she happened to see the small paper note in his hand that he didn't have time to hide. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 236 =====
