Chapter 160: Something Strange Bit Me

That mountain was not very expensive. When everyone had money, they would buy fertile land first.

Few people were willing to take such a mountain that was suitable for planting fruit trees. After all, fruits were not easy to grow and sell.

One was expensive. Rich people had their own manors and orchards and rarely bought fruits outside. Those who didn’t have money couldn’t afford them. If they wanted to eat fruits, they would go to the mountains to pick some wild sweet fruits.

Secondly, it was not easy to preserve them. There were too many plants. Once they matured in one go, they had to be sold quickly, or they would rot. However, everyone was from the countryside and had no channels or connections. At most, they would be dragged to the county city.

Hence, Gu Yundong bought the 30 acres of land for 120 taels of silver.

As soon as she paid, she instantly felt that her money was a little tight again.

Since she had already bought the land, Shi Dashan said to her, “If you want to plant sugarcane, we can start preparing sucrose ditches on the ground now and choose the seedlings.”

Gu Yundong knew that sugarcane was usually planted from February to April.

It could be harvested from November to April.

It was November in the lunar calendar, so the preliminary preparations could begin.

In this aspect, Shi Dashan and his wife were still the best. Gu Yundong left it to them.

Gu Yundong wrote an agreement in front of the village chief and asked him to be a witness. She gave them 20 taels of silver in advance so that they could choose the seedlings.

As for whether the two of them could handle it and whether they needed to hire people, that was up to them. Gu Yundong was not afraid that they would not be able to control the workers. Wasn’t Zhuangzi around? That kid actually cared a lot about his parents and family.

Both parties pressed their hand prints. Shi Dashan’s hand that was holding the twenty taels of silver trembled slightly.

He did not expect Gu Yundong to trust him so much. Wasn’t he afraid that he would take her money?

After settling this matter, Gu Yundong was relieved.

The house had been built, the mountain had been bought, and the sugarcane had been taken care of.

As for the planting of other fruits, she still had to get Shi Dashan to help search for suitable land when he was free. If he didn’t even have land, he really wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Gu Yundong returned to the new house in a relaxed manner. At this moment, Madam Yang and the two children were walking around the house, looking very happy.

Seeing her return, they immediately surrounded her.

“Eldest Sister, when are we moving in?” Gu Yunshu liked the new house very much. He had never thought that he could have such a big room and a study.

“The furniture will be here in two days. Let the sun shine for another ten days before we move in.” Gu Yundong also wanted to move in as soon as possible. Although Dong Xiulan’s family was not bad, it was more comfortable to live in her own house.

She pointed at the main room in front of her and said, “That room is for Father and Mother. Other than that room, you can choose any.”

Gu Yunshu pointed to the room on the left. “I choose that one.”

Gu Yundong looked at Gu Yunke again, but the young girl suddenly hugged her leg. “Do I have to live alone? It’s scary. Something strange is biting my hand.”

Gu Yundong was stunned. Yes, she was only three years old. She was still too young.

She picked up the little girl. “Then Keke will sleep with Mother. When you grow up, you can choose a room you like, okay?”

She was going to stay in a room by herself anyway.

The little girl immediately nodded. “Okay.” Then, she whispered into Gu Yundong’s ear, “Mother is also afraid. I’ll accompany Mother.”

Gu Yundong looked at Madam Yang. As expected, when she heard that she was sleeping with Gu Yunke, she heaved a sigh of relief.

She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She had been negligent. Although her mother was an adult, her mind was similar to Keke’s.

Gu Yundong could not help but look at Gu Yunshu..
