Chapter 67 Excuses to shirk
"Madam?"
Li Dagui shouted, and Wang came back from her contemplation. She looked at the past calmly, and smiled slightly: "I was in a daze for a while."
Li Dagui bowed his head.
"Director Li, you can be regarded as an old man of our Qin family. Thanks to your family's hard work in guarding this old house and taking care of the eldest lady all these years."
Li Dagui bent his body slightly, and said respectfully: "The eldest lady has beaten the slaves, this is what slaves should do."
Mrs. Wang nodded, and said: "You also know that the Qin family today is not the third-rank official family in the past. Mr. Li takes care of you..."
Li Dagui quickly knelt down and said: "Miss, the slave family has been in the old house for many years and has served the young lady for many years. From the bottom of my heart, I regard the young lady as the master. Whether it is rich or poor, life or death, the servants will follow the young lady. Serve her."
Wang frowned.
Follow the eldest lady, not the Qin family.
While expressing his loyalty, Li Dagui also showed who is the real master of their family.
Qin Liuxi has subdued Li Dagui's family, so it's no wonder that Aunt Li and the others are always defending Qin Liuxi, putting her first in everything.
Mrs. Wang was not displeased. Qin Liuxi was able to subdue this family because of her ability. Others could **** it, it only depends on her ability.
Li Dagui smiled and got up from the ground.
"It's just a common saying, sit on the mountain and eat nothing. Although Xi'er has this heart, our family, big and small, can't just rely on her. Li Dagui, the old lady and I have already discussed and plan to buy a few acres of fertile land in your name If you rent a tenant, you can get a few percent of the grain, and you won’t have to spend money to buy everything, do you think there is something suitable for you?”
Li Dagui deliberated for a while and said, "Qihuang also mentioned this matter to the slaves. If you want to say that the fertile land near Licheng is also owned by the owner, it will not be resold easily, and because it is close to Licheng, so The price is also expensive, and you have to go to 11, 22 and 1 mu."
Wang was a little surprised that it was so expensive.
"It's Qinghe County next door. Although the distance is farther, because there is a river flowing into the river, there are many fertile fields in that area. The average is only eight or nine taels. The entire small village of tens of acres, with ponds, gardens and fertile land, can be won for a few hundred taels of silver." Li Dagui said cautiously: "Even if you buy it, Qinghe County is not as eye-catching as Licheng."
Wang's heart skipped a beat.
That is to say, if the Qin family bought a small village in someone else's name, and they were not being watched everywhere in Licheng, there wouldn't be too much trouble.
"You are quite thoughtful, then you found a free time and went to Qinghe to see, are there any small Zhuangzi who sell? If there are, and the price is right, I will buy them." Wang immediately made up his mind.
"Why."
Li Dagui agreed, hesitated for a while, and said, "Besides, there is one more thing."
"Huh? What's up?"
Li Dagui replied: "You ordered your slaves to visit Ding's house in Bali Hutong. The porter of Ding's house said that it was unfortunate. Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, the magistrate in Ningzhou Prefecture said that he missed Mrs. Ding, so he sent the old lady My wife took me to Ningzhou Mansion for a short stay for a reunion, and I don't know when I will return."
When Mrs. Wang heard the words, she put down the tea she had picked up again, curling her fingers slightly.
