Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"Well, we'll start marking the land tomorrow. My eldest brother is pushing me to death today."

Qin Dahe complained that many people in Qinjia Village came to him and asked him to arrange land division.

"Don't go tomorrow. Go this afternoon. If you wait until tomorrow, you'll waste another day of everyone's time." Jia Zhenye said bluntly, "You know how to divide the family property by dividing it. Just go there with your people."

"Brother Jia, should we go and inform the township?" Qin Dahe said with a smile. Jia Zhenye was more straightforward and courageous. "Why don't we go and inform the township?"

"I'll notify you when it's done. It's just a barren mountain anyway. It's no big deal. We can go there and cry poor and have a hard time. We can also be exempted from taxes for a few years. This can be considered as reclaiming wasteland." Jia Zhenye said as a matter of course.

"Hey, I'll go with you." Qin Dahe said, "What kind of land is the mountain we opened up?"

Jia Zhenye pointed at Qin Dahe in frustration, "You, the land you reclaimed is all low-quality land, what kind of land is that?

"We can use the good land where we push houses to grow crops and vegetables to offset the tax. The money we earn from growing vegetables will all go to the people who work there."

"Qin Dahe, you used to be quite cunning, but why are you so timid now?" Jia Zhenye looked at Qin Dahe with contempt.

"No, I'm just scared!" Qin Dahe said, not forgetting to eat rice.

"What are you afraid of? I'll be the one doing it in front and you just need to follow. I'll be the first one to be hit." Jia Zhenye said proudly.

"Dad, did you catch any fish this morning?" Jia Zhenye turned to ask Uncle Jia, "Our village is booming right now, all thanks to Dongxu."

"I caught a big fish, and it ran away!" Uncle Jia said with a smile, not feeling embarrassed at all.

"Uncle, I'm going fishing with you this afternoon! You can't run away." Jia Dongxu said with a smile, "Let me tell you, I'm really good at fishing, and I never come back empty-handed."

"Bah, where do you get fish from? Where in the city is there a place for you to fish?" Uncle Jia said with a smile.

"There is a park." Jia Dongxu said evasively.

"Okay, it's up to you whether we can eat fish tonight." Uncle Jia smiled and handed over the right to use the fishing rod in the afternoon.

"Okay, everyone will have better meals tonight." Jia Dongxu said, patting his chest.

"You kid, now that we have meat, plan to improve the food!" Jia Zhenye pointed at Jia Dongxu angrily.

"Let's calculate!" Jia Dongxu said hurriedly.

"Hurry up and eat Dongxu. Go and mark out some land for me and I'll mark out a piece for you." Qin Dahe said.

"The daylilies will be cold by the time you start cutting them." Jia Zhenye said with a smile. "Go by yourself."

"We have to prepare the wooden boards for the roof of the greenhouse, and we also have to talk to people in advance about the glass. We also have to go to the steel mill to get the money. There are quite a lot of things to do." Jia Zhenye muttered.

"It's a habit. You finish marking the land today. Tomorrow we will go to the township to discuss the land and then order the glass. As for the wood panels for the greenhouse, we can leave it to the carpenters in our two villages. They are working on it every day now."

"You can take your time installing the glass. This is the job of the carpenters. We will calculate their working hours when the time comes."

Qin Dahe nodded. "Okay, just get it done before the temperature drops. The few acres of vegetables we planted now can be harvested in a few days. When the time comes, we can send them to the factory. These vegetables won't be worth it for them to use a car to transport them."

The two of them arranged things during this casual chat. "By the way, find the young man who raises pigs in your Qinjia Village. Your village was slow this morning."

Jia Zhenye said with disdain that Qinjiacun was always chasing after him and he had to remind him when he turned around.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Jia Dongxu told Jia Erzhu what he was going to do in the afternoon, and then followed Uncle Jia to go fishing.

"Uncle, this river looks quite big."

Jia Dongxu thought it was a small ditch, but it turned out to be a river.

"Let's wait for the fish." Jia Dongxu simply prepared the fish maw, dug out the earthworms and started fishing.

After a while, fish started to be caught one after another, but the water was not deep, so there were no big fish.

After catching two bowls, Jia Dongxu stopped fishing and said, "Uncle, there are no big fish. I won't fish anymore."

"Okay, go ahead. I'm an old man and I'm here to fish. You, a young man, don't have the concentration."

Uncle Jia took the fishing rod with a smile and started fishing slowly.

Jia Dongxu shook his head and went to see how the pig house was being built.

As long as the pig house is built and a guardhouse is built, the pig farm is officially open.

Jia Dongxu hummed a song and walked towards the barren mountain where he was reclaiming land.

"Dongxu, wait a minute!" Jia Laosi's wife walked up quickly.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Jia Dongxu looked around. There were some trees nearby and not many people came here.

"Dongxu, please help Daya?" Jia Laosi's wife suddenly knelt over and said.

"What are you doing? Daya has been arrested by the police station." Jia Dongxu quickly dodged and said to Jia Laosi's wife, "You let Daya take you to the city, which really hurt her."

"Dongxu, will everything be alright if Daya and Zhuzi get married?" Jia Laosi's wife cried, "We went to the city because we gave birth to three daughters and were looked down upon by the villagers."

"Zhu Zi will not be married, so don't say anything more."

"And you've thought too much. With Second Uncle in the village, no one will look down on you." Jia Dongxu believed in Jia Zhenye. No one would find fault with what he did.

"Yes, second brother is fair. Today he allocated two pieces of land to my family, the same as those of other people's three sons. With him and you here, no one will look down on us." Jia Laosi's wife said crying.

"We have finally figured it out at noon today. We will stay in the village and not go to the city. Erya and Sanya will each have a house, and we will invite their sons-in-law to live with us."

"My second brother also said last night that we will have money in two years. We will go to other villages to find money for them."

"It's good that you think this way." Jia Dongxu said, "If you had thought this way earlier, Daya wouldn't have ended up in the police station."

"Dongxu, can I go to the city to ask for help so that Daya doesn't go to jail?" Jia Laosi's wife said crying.

Looking at the crying wife of Jia Laosi, Jia Dongxu sighed in his heart. He still couldn't be hard-hearted. Although Jia Daya said that at the street entrance, he didn't have much anger when he thought about it now.

Just assume she is ignorant.

I think it was Jia Zhenye and the others who asked Jia Laosi's wife to come and find me. It was not easy for them to take the lead in this matter, so they could only let Jia Laosi's wife come to find me.

If he didn't die, Jia Zhenye would probably feel guilty. After all, a good girl was introduced to the city, but was put in prison before she could live a good life.

If Director Wang makes a big fuss about this, it will be difficult for him to handle the matter. Let's find a way that won't expand the impact.

"I don't know how Daya is doing now, you can go to the city and ask."

Jia Dongxu thought about it and felt that Jia Daya was so young and it was not worth sentencing her for such a small matter.

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu took out 2 yuan from his pocket and handed it over, "You need to spend money when you go to the city, this money is for your travel expenses."

Jia Laosi's wife quickly declined, "Dongxu, I want to ask Zhuzi and the person in charge in your city to see if they can handle it lightly."

"this…"

Jia Dongxu thought about it and felt that maybe he could make things less complicated if he stepped forward.

Nodding, "Whenever you go to the city, I'll go with you."
