Chapter 39 Twenty acres of fertile land
When Li Shaoan heard Chen Chunlan talk about borrowing money, he was very surprised. Logically, Chen Chunlan lives alone, and the man at home is not around, so she can't spend much money on her daily living expenses. How could she borrow money from the village? Is there something that he doesn't know about?
"How much did you borrow?" Li Shaoan asked.
"Three hundred..." Chen Chunlan said with no confidence.
Chen Chunlan covered her face and did not dare to look at Li Shaoan. This money is tantamount to an astronomical figure for her "widow" whose annual income depends on two acres of land in her hands. The food of two acres of land is just enough to live, and it is impossible to save the remaining money. How can she repay the money?
Li Shaoan was also surprised, "Three hundred! How could he borrow so much?"
Chen Chunlan's nose felt sour, and her tears couldn't stop falling one by one. She cried so much that she felt distressed. She said in tears: "My mother-in-law left half a year ago, and Ma Ming never returned. She didn't know where she was. The funeral would fall on me."
"Where can I have money to buy a coffin and ask a mage to make a temple. I was forced to go to the end. At this time, Huang Yunlong appeared in front of me and said that he could borrow 30 yuan from me in the name of the village, so that I could do my mother-in-law's funeral."
Li Shaoan frowned and guessed that Huang Yunlongding had started to think about Chen Chunlan from then on. He was indeed a treacherous old fox.
"At that time, I thought I had met a savior and thought Huang Yunlong was a great man." Chen Chunlan regretted: "How could I know that Huang Yunlong was obsessed with me and wanted to use this method to force me to agree to his request and have an improper relationship with him."
Li Shaoan suddenly stood up and said in a decisive tone: "Sister-in-law Chunlan, don't worry, I, Li Shaoan, will pay the money for you!"
Chen Chunlan's head was like a rattle and refused, "No, I borrowed this money from the village, how could I make you pay it back?"
Li Shaoan had a long thought that if she had directly said that she would pay the money for Chen Chunlan, she would definitely not agree, so she thought of a way to make things easier.
"Sister-in-law Chunlan, don't you still have two acres of paddy fields in your hands?"
"Yes, what are you doing for this?" Chen Chunlan didn't quite understand.
Li Shaoan smiled slightly and said, "I will pay 30 yuan to rent the fields in your hands. What do you think?"
Chen Chunlan kept shook her head and refused to agree, "No, no, this is even worse. Now with a special subsidy, this paddy field is only 12 yuan a year for contracting a mu of paddy fields. How can I get it if you give me 3oo yuan?"
"Sister-in-law Chunlan, don't rush to refuse. Listen to me to finish what's behind." Young Master Li settled down and said, "I rented these two acres of land for not a year, but ten years!"
"Ten years?" Chen Chunlan was shocked. Unexpectedly, Li Shaoan spoke for ten years.
"Yes, what I want is ten years." Li Shaoan said with a smile: "No matter what the subsidy is, we will calculate it based on the price of 15 yuan before the subsidy."
"No, how can I calculate it based on 15?" Chen Chunlan waved her hand.
"Don't worry, listen to me first." Li Shaoan said in detail: "I will pay half of the ten-year rent for these two acres of land, which is 150 yuan. You should take the money first, and I will not care about how much you sign with the village. It is your own business to leave it in your hands. As long as these two acres of land are always in your name, Chen Chunlan. From then on, your name will be planted by me, Li Shaoan."
Chen Chunlan suddenly saw that the man who looked quite immature in front of her was so smart that she could tell her future decision-making plans well. At this moment, she couldn't help but believe in Li Shaoan, thinking that as long as he was there, all the problems could be solved.
"But even so, the money in the village is still a lot short of it. How can I get it?"
The corners of Li Shaoan's mouth suddenly raised up and he smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Chunlan, can you farm?"
"You asked, if you don't know how to farm, what will I eat over the years?" Chen Chunlan pouted, as if she was unhappy because she was underestimated.
"Very good, it would be great if you know how to farm!" Li Shaoan explained: "To be honest, this time I contracted 18 acres of paddy fields in the village. Including your two acres, a total of 2 acres."
"2o acres! How can I plant so many?" Chen Chunlan said in surprise.
Li Shaoan said: "It is because I can't plant it, that I need more helpers. Sister Chunlan, you will help me farm in the future. I will pay you a salary. After the rice is ripe and sell it for money, I will pay you dividends. After half a year, I will guarantee that you will pay off the debts in the village."
"My sister-in-law is willing to help you farm, but she must not ask for the wages. If you have helped me like this, how can I care about these things?"
"Oh, one code is the same. I invite you to farm. Of course, I have to start a wage. Don't you have to settle the score clearly?"
Chen Chunlan was very moved. To be honest, she and the Li family are already very far away cousins, so why should Li Shaoan be so dedicated to help?
"Shaoan, I don't understand why you helped me like this?"
Li Shaoan smiled with irresistible confidence, "I'm not only helping you, but also helping myself."
"This time I went back to my hometown to plant rice. Under the pressure of my relatives, fellow villagers, and all parties in my studies, countless people were waiting to see me fall and laugh at me. I told myself that this time I can only succeed, without failure!"
At that moment, Chen Chunlan suddenly felt a touch in her heart, attracted by the charm that spread out from Li Shaoan's body. She agreed neatly and decisively without hesitation.
"Shao'an, as long as you have something to use to get your sister-in-law, you can speak. Although my sister-in-law is a woman and her strength is not as strong as the laborers in the village, she has grown up in the fields since she was a child and will not lose to anyone in farming."
"Sister-in-law Chunlan, I'll feel relieved if you say this."
Li Shaoan smiled very happily, and then solved two problems: First, Chen Chunlan had a day to repay the 30 yuan in the village, and then she was not afraid that Huang Yunlong would use this as a weakness to force Chen Chunlan to submit; second, she had a total of twenty acres of paddy fields in her hands, and even if her brother and sister-in-law helped her, she would not be able to do it. Now Chen Chunlan's help would undoubtedly have more strength.
After staying in the room for a while, Li Shaoan and Chen Chunlan sat on both ends of the bed. This time, Chen Chunlan looked at Li Shaoan with a different feeling.
After so long, Huang Yunlong did not turn back again, and Li Shaoan left with confidence.
Chen Chunlan sent Li Shaoan to the door and looked at her back slowly disappearing into the darkness, as if a small stone had thrown away all the heart lake and stirred up circles of waves.
Chen Chunlan's cheeks were hot, like a ripe apple. She couldn't help but think of the scene that made people blush in this room just now.
"What's wrong with me... How could I treat Shaoan's boy..."
