Chapter 232: Chapter 232: Sending Tobacco Leaves to Old Yang
"I know, I’m not the kind of person to meddle." Yang Dayong replied and glanced at Brother An who hadn’t said much, then asked, "Brother An, are you still renting out your land?"
"Yep, it’s being rented out. I signed a five-year lease." Ye Zi’an nodded. If it weren’t for the long lease, he would have taken the land back and let Yang Chuxia farm it. But he wasn’t the kind of person who would break his word and reclaim the land halfway through, so he just planned to wait until the lease expired and not renew it.
Yang Chuxia looked at him and said, "Don’t renew your lease when it expires, just take the land back and farm it yourself. If you can’t do it all by yourself, just hire someone."
"That’s what I’m planning to do." Ye Zi’an nodded upon hearing this.
On the way, the three of them chatted, and soon arrived at Yangshu Village. Yang Dayong drove the ox cart straight to Yang Chuxia’s house. At this time, Yang Dachuan had just returned from the field and was preparing to carry the food to the workers in the field.
"Wow, you bought so much stuff." Yang Dachuan commented as he looked at the ox cart.
Yang Dayong, hearing this, quickly said, "I tell you, Cousin, your Xiaxia really knows how to spend money. Just look at all the stuff she bought on this cart. In the future, you should give her less money to prevent her from getting into the habit of being a spendthrift."
Seeing Ye Zi’an had already entered the house, he said this to Yang Dachuan.
However, Yang Dachuan’s response left him speechless.
"All the money in our family is earned by Xiaxia, and it’s all with her."
Yang Dayong, at a loss for words, looked up at the sky and said, "Alright, just pretend I didn’t say anything."
Yang Dachuan just laughed, thinking that his Xiaxia would never waste money frivolously. All the things she bought were essential for the household, and she didn’t even buy anything for herself. Most of the food was for Yunyun to eat.
As for the pens and ink, he didn’t have to guess; they were definitely for the two kids, and Oh, Brother An as well. His little girl always bought for three.
"Uncle Dayong, come in and have a meal first. We’ll leave the stuff on the ox cart for now." Yang Chuxia called out after washing her hands and seeing Yang Dayong and Yang Dachuan still talking, thinking that they seemed to want to unload the items from the ox cart.
"Alright, let’s eat."
Yang Dachuan didn’t stay at home for the meal. After Ms.Wang prepared the food, the two of them carried it together and went to the fields. Only Yang Dayong, Ye Zi’an, and Yang Chuxia were left at home.
After eating, Yang Dayong was about to drive the ox-cart home. Yang Chuxia asked him to take back the pouch of tobacco she bought for Land Officer Yang and a small package of snacks for the Land Officer’s little grandson.
"Brother An, please keep Yunyun company, I need to go to the old house."
Yang Chuxia took out the package of tobacco leaves she had bought for Old Yang, preparing to send them to him as she thought there was nothing to do now.
"No problem, I’ll watch the house for you." Ye Zi’an waved his hand and said.
Yang Chuxia instructed Yang Xiayun again, "Yunyun, listen to Brother Zi’an, don’t run around."
"Sister, I know. I’ll play with Brother Zi’an; you go ahead."
"Okay, I’m going."
Yang Chuxia carried the package of tobacco leaves and two bags of easily-digestible pastries and headed to the old house. However, on her way there, she encountered a panting Yang Ruoqiu.
"Yang Chuxia, Yang Chuxia, hurry up, hurry to the old house!" Yang Ruoqiu cried out, waving her hand and shouting loudly as she saw Yang Chuxia.
"What’s going on? The sky’s falling, and you’re calling for me?"
