The few village women exchanged lookswith each other. s.h.i.+ da niang was thefirst to speak, “Xiao Xiao, we are okay with your conditions. As long as youwill let the girls return at age 14, we don’t have any other asks!”
“Yes, Xiao Xiao, me neither. BringFebruary Flower back with you to help out with your house work!”
“I agree. Xiao Xiao, if little SpringFlower won’t listen to what you say, feel free to teach her a lesson. I don’tmind!”
Under their promises, Cheng Xiao Xiaosighed secretly. Little Yuteng was right, this was not a bad way to test outthe individuals.
She believed their thinking might changein a few years. Cheng Xiao Xiao felt for certain that most of them might evenwant to say. If these mothers thought they could arrange their lives for them,they might need to rethink that.
“As long as everybody is happy. Mr.Cheng, anything else you want to discuss?” asked the old patriarch courteously.
“Matter of fact, old patriarch, I do. Iwould like to purchase all the uncultivated land in the village. I hope thatyou can provide us with an estimation when you have some time so I can buy themfrom you.”
Cheng Biyuan brought up another issue.Now that the Cheng’s were expending their resident, they need more and mores.p.a.ce. So he had decided to purchase all the uncultivated land belonging to thevillage.
“Do you mean that, Mr. Cheng?” asked theold patriarch incredulously.
It wasn’t just the old patriarch thatfound that hard to believe, even all the villagers there thought they have misheard. Willow has a lot of uncultivatedland. If the Cheng’s were really going to buy them all, they are lookinganother lucrative income!
Thinking about all the money that theycould make, everybody was so eager that they want to agree to Cheng Biyuan’sasks right away.
Cheng Biyuan nodded seriously at the oldpatriarch and smiled, “Old patriarch, I won’t joke about something like this.As long as you give me a fair price of the village’s land, I will buy them allfrom you.”
“Okay, Mr. Cheng. I will take your wordsfor it. Don’t worry. Starting tomorrow, I will walk around and take a look atour surrounding area and quote you a fair price!”
“I thank you in advance for yourtrouble!”
“Ha Ha Ha. We are family now. No need tobe so polite. We should be thanking you for your generosity!”
“Oh, you don’t need to!”
After settling all the open items, theCheng’s father and daughter bid the old patriarch farewell. The old patriarchwalked them out and saw them off.
After they were gone, the old patriarchstroked his beard and smiled, “G.o.d is finally giving Willow His blessings!”
“Uncle, I am worry that the entireWillow will be owned by Mr. Cheng in the future!”
The old patriarch turned around afterhearing that, looked at his oldest nephew and shook his head, “Oh, Erping,you are on the other side of 30 already.How could you still be so silly? What’s the big deal about Willow Village?What’s wrong with us trying to tie our fortune to Mr. Cheng and hope for thebest? Do you want to keep on hunting everyday? You have been doing that for thelast twenty plus years, how many days did you have enough to eat? Don’t be sofixated on the old ways if Mr. Cheng has the ability to give us a betterfuture. Think about it, yeah?”
“I know what you mean, but what aboutall the accomplishments handed down from our ancestors?”
“Bulls.h.i.+t!” The old patriarch was soangry he cussed at him. Pointing straight at his forehead he scolded, “Are youstupid? There will always be ancestors everywhere! What ancestors if there areno more people? When you have earned everything, you can go anywhere you want,and your ancestor’s accomplishment will travel with you. You get that?”

Translator’s rambling:
It might be customary back then for peasants to sell themselves into a big family, but Cheng Xiao Xiao was a “modern” person. How did she feel comfortable with that so easily? =.= And why wouldn’t the girls choose to stay as maids instead of getting married and having families of their own. Ugh! Okay, maybe because of poverty and going hungry. LOL
Also absolutely no idea what the author was trying to say in the last paragraphed. I translated it as best I could. Hope it make sense to you! ;)
