It wasn't that Manman was stingy; the reality was that she herself was poor. She was determined that these eighty taels of silver could not be cunningly snatched away by anyone else. Her purpose in making money was to buy land. Once they had bought the land, even if others eyed their property, the Lian Family still owned more than twenty mu of land, which meant that no one could easily encroach upon this newly purchased plot.
Because of this reasoning, Manman had just discussed with Lian Shouxin about using all of the eighty taels of silver to buy land, and the sooner, the better; it would be best if they could make the purchase today.
"All three plots of land sound good," Lian Shouxin said.
"If we're really going to buy, we should go see them first and then decide," Wu Yugui said.
"Let's go see them now then," Manman said.
"That sounds good," Lian Shouxin nodded, being a straightforward person; he was extremely delighted at the prospect of buying land.
