Chapter 402 Wei Ruo gets more than the Wei family
The Wei family was only allocated two very small pieces of land, which add up to no more than two hundred acres, and the location is remote.
In contrast, there is a large piece of land of 500 mu in the center with Wei Qingruo's name on it.
This made it difficult for Yun's face to keep smiling.
At this time, in front of all the wives, Yun Shi was also uncomfortable.
She looked at Wei Ruo with great dissatisfaction in her eyes.
Wei Ruo noticed it, but she also kept silent, and even pretended not to see Yun's strange look at her.
What Yun didn't notice was that next to the land marked with Wei Ruo's name, there was a thousand acres of land marked with Xu Heyou's name.
The rest of the ladies looked pretty good, and this result was not different from what they expected. For example, the Xu family, which contributed a lot of money and effort, directly allocated more than 3,000 mu of land, and the general families also had more than 1,000 mu of land.
They are all exchanged with their own real money, and those who get less are also paid less, so there is nothing to complain about.
What's more, it is the female gentlemen sent by each family to follow Wei Ruo and Mother Qin to settle accounts and distribute. If it is really unreasonable, everyone has already known it.
"Do you have any objections to this?" Madam Yuan asked after everyone finished watching.
"I have no objection. Madam and Master Yuan have always done things fairly and justly. The distribution of land here is very reasonable."
"I think so too, everything can be arranged by Madam."
"We completely trust you, madam, and there will be no problems with the arrangements you made."
"..."
Everyone replied one after another.
Madam Yuan continued: "Since everyone has no objection, then I will follow this. At present, these lands will continue to be arranged and managed by the government. When this batch of winter wheat is harvested in the coming year, everyone can arrange people to harvest it .”
Everyone answered yes.
After the discussion on land distribution was over, all the wives followed Mrs. Yuan and walked along the field ridges to visit this large newly reclaimed field full of vitality.
During the period, several ladies pulled Wei Ruo to talk about the fabric.
Several wives who first asked Wei Ruo to help buy fabrics have already put them on, and the effect is really amazing. I couldn't help but praise the various benefits of this fabric to Wei Ruo.
also said that if they can still buy it, they are willing to increase the price to buy it.
Wei Ruo revealed to several people that a batch of fabrics will be produced during the Chinese New Year, not only in the previous two colors, but also in new colors.
The wives immediately showed great interest and wanted Wei Ruo to reserve it for them in advance.
The one who didn't make an appointment with Wei Ruo last time also showed that she wanted it very much this time.
Seeing that there are too many people who want it, Wei Ruo said that she will notify everyone when the material arrives, and then discuss how to sell it.
The ladies agreed, because the material is so rare, and there are so many people who want it, they can only wait patiently.
Mr. Yun was listening, and his expression became darker.
It was already time when the carriage came back from the wasteland. As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, Wei Ruo jumped out of the carriage and walked quickly to the backyard.
Mr. Yun watched from behind without making a sound, but his expression was rather unwell.
Seeing that Yun's complexion was not good, he asked softly: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter any unpleasant things when you went out with your sister today?"
Yun Shi then talked about the land distribution, and then sighed:
"At that time, there was no extra silver in the family, so I couldn't contribute money and efforts. I have no objection to the government's distribution of less to the Wei family, but she is the daughter of the Wei family, and she has already thought about buying private property for herself before she is married. She wrote her own name on the part she worked on herself."
The person in charge of dividing the land is Mrs. Yuan's think tank headed by Wei Ruo, so it must be Wei Ruo's intention to assign Wei Ruo's credit to Wei Ruo's name.
Wei Qingwan sighed: "My sister should not have done this. Even if it was written about the Wei family, when my sister gets married in the future, my mother will give her this share. She is directly counted separately from the family. Outsiders don’t know what they will think.”
"That's the reason. The depression in my heart comes from here. It's a pity that people who should understand don't understand." Yun sighed.
"Mom, don't be angry. I heard that the scholar my sister is going to marry is not only poor, but also a little sick. My sister must be worried about her future life before planning for herself." Wei Qingwan said in relief.
Wei Qingwan didn't say it was okay, but Yun's face became even more ugly when he said it: "She didn't know what to think, she didn't want a marriage as good as Xu's, and chose one like this. But your father said he respected her Thoughts, I have nothing to do."
"My sister has been away for many years, and my father probably wants to make up for my sister. Whatever my sister wants, my father wants to do his best."
"In the future, when she suffers enough and runs back to her mother's house crying, she will know how wrong her choice is now, but by then it will be too late, and no one can replace her for the suffering she has to suffer."
"Then mother, let's find another opportunity to persuade my sister, so that she will not do such a thing in a fit of anger."
Yun waved his hand: "No matter how much I tell her, she will only think that I am hurting her, and it is a waste of effort to make myself unhappy, so I don't need to talk about it."
Immediately afterwards, Yun said to Wei Qingwan: "For the ointment, mother will get you two hundred taels first, and you can wait for mother to find another way for you about the remaining one hundred taels."
"Thank you, mother." Wei Qingwan said emotionally.
"No need to thank you. If it weren't for the poor income of the shop in the past two years, mother can give you three hundred taels at once. But fortunately, now that your father has been promoted, his salary has also increased, and he also got some land and houses. With a reward, the family will become more prosperous day by day."
"Well, my daughter knows about mother's difficulties." Wei Qingwan said.
###
After Wei Qingwan came out of Cangyun Garden, she hurried back to her residence, because just now Cui He told her that Nanny Li was back and successfully brought back the ointment for healing the scars.
As soon as she entered the room, Wei Qingwan hurriedly asked Cui He to apply ointment on her.
"Quick, Cuihe, put it on for me."
Nanny Li was hesitant to tell Wei Qingwan what she learned in Tongdetang.
After Cuihe finished administering the medicine to Wei Qingwan, Wei Qingwan asked Nanny Li while getting dressed: "Is there anything you want to say to me, Mammy?"
Wei Qingwan could see Nanny Li's entanglement.
"Miss, about this medicine... the old slave heard from Tongdetang that the wound area is large, and the dosage will be large. This ointment is only enough for you for half a month. To recover, you need to apply it continuously for at least two months."
"Mother, what did you say? Two months? Wouldn't it be necessary to buy at least nine more boxes?" Cui He exclaimed.
Nanny Li nodded: "That's right."
That is nine hundred taels of silver! Where can I get so much silver taels?
Wei Qingwan's complexion immediately became very ugly.
The three hundred taels of silver were still obtained from Wei Mingyong, where would she get another nine hundred taels of silver?
Even if you still have the two hundred taels from Yun's, it's still seven hundred taels short!
