Chapter 526 (2/2)
”Ha ha... Sister, I tell you: there are some rare things planted in my field. My husband built a shelter in the field, and he has to watch every night.”
”Elder sister, then I will accompany her.”
”Sister, it's really dangerous for you to go to the Shi family to work at this time.”
”Elder sister, what's wrong with the Shi family?”
”Oh! It's hard to say. Shi Xiaogu's daughter-in-law committed suicide by jumping into the river a month ago. It's said that she became a ghost and ran back to Shi's house to make trouble. ”
”Elder sister, why did Shi Xiaogu's daughter-in-law commit suicide?”
”I also think it's strange that Shi Xiaogu is a good person, much better than his father. Since Shi Xiaogu and Caixia got married, they have a good relationship, and they don't quarrel at ordinary times. I can't understand why Caixia suddenly jumped into the river and committed suicide.”
”Elder sister, is the relationship between shixiaogu and Caixia good?”
”Yes, the couple have never quarreled, let alone fought. Caixia is a virtuous girl with a good personality. Shixiaogu is also an honest man who doesn't say anything.”
”Sister, it's strange. How can you jump into the river and commit suicide without any reason?”
”Sister, people in the village are talking about Caixia's suicide and her father-in-law shigu.”
”Did shigu bully his daughter-in-law?”
”It seems that shigu is OK with his daughter-in-law at ordinary times, but outsiders don't know what he is like to his daughter-in-law when he closes the door.”
”Elder sister, I heard that Shi Xiaogu married three daughters-in-law. The first two daughters-in-law divorced because they didn't give birth to a son and a half. Caixia and Shi Xiaogu had been married for three years, and they didn't have any children. Is it because Shi Xiaogu wanted to divorce Caixia that Caixia jumped into the River to commit suicide?”
”Sister, although Shi Xiaogu is big and strong, he seems to be in good health. However, he has been married three times, and none of his three daughters-in-law has given birth to a son and a half. People in the village are talking about it, saying that there is something wrong with Shi Xiaogu's physiology. Some people once persuaded shigu to take his son to the city to have a look, but shigu stubbornly said, ”my son has no problem. It's all his daughter-in-law.”
”Elder sister, I pondered: Shi Xiaogu has been married three times, but he has no children. It should be that there is something wrong with Shi Xiaogu's physiology. Can't such a smart person think of it?”
”Shigu is very stubborn. He can't get ten cows back when he decides what to do.”
”Elder sister, what's shigu like?”
Xinghua shook his head and said contemptuously, ”shigu has a bad reputation in the village. He has rented most of the fields in the village, but the rent is very cheap. He signed a ten-year contract with the villagers at one time. They want him to increase the rent, but he is unwilling to give them any more.”
”Elder sister, how much does shigu rent the village's land per mu?”
”Shigu's elder sister heard that she was a rich man. Ten years ago, her elder sister gave him a sum of money to buy some agricultural machinery. From then on, he rented all the fields of the villagers. He only paid more than 200 yuan per mu. At that time, most of the villagers rented the fields to shigu. Later, the villagers found that the rent for each mu of land in other villages was more than 300 yuan, so they went to shigu to ask him to increase the rent. However, shigu took out the lease contract and said to everyone: if you are not convinced, go to the court and sue me. If you win, I will increase the rent for you. You say, if there is a contract there, can the villagers win the lawsuit? Everyone is just dumb. ”
”It's really a little too low to pay more than 200 yuan for each mu. Although there is a contract in hand, it's OK to give you some compensation. After all, it's all from the villagers.”
