172 Fool (1)
“What? You want to contract the land?”
At dinner, Gu Qingming’s words were like a bolt of lightning, shocking the Shi family and Grandpa Gu and his wife.
“Yes, I want to contract land. I want to farm!” Gu Qingming said her thoughts without hesitation.
The Shi family knew the Gu family’s net worth. Moreover, as the heir of the Gu family, Gu Qingming’s net worth had already reached hundreds of millions.Yet she wanted to farm!
This really shocked the Shi family.
“Sister, how stupid are you!” Shi Yaoqing said in surprise, “You don’t want to inherit billions of assets, but you want to be a farmer. If I had billions of assets to inherit, I would definitely be the CEO. How comfortable would it be to sit in a spacious office with air conditioning!”
“Sister, are you tired of being rich, so you want to be a farmer for once?”
“Sister, it’s not that we want to criticize you, but you’re really not cut out for farming. Look, you can even prick your hand when I ask you to choose a vegetable. Your hand is fair and tender. If you really farm, you’ll probably get blisters from carrying a hoe.”
… .
Gu Qingming said that she wanted to contract land to farm. The brothers and sisters-in-law did not take it seriously and joked with Gu Qingming.
“Mingming, why do you suddenly want to farm?” Eldest Aunt asked. “Do you know that farming is hard? It’s bitter and tiring. It doesn’t yield much.”
Third Aunt also said, “Mingming, you’re so soft and tender. You’re not made to farm! Just as your third sister-in-law said, you can prick your hands when you choose a vegetable. If you farm, you’ll probably get blisters when you swing a hoe and shovel.”
“Also, if you farm here, what will happen to your family’s company? You’re the only child in your family. You’re going to inherit the family business in the future. Why are you wasting your time farming?”
“Mingming, if you want to farm, just follow us out in the future and do it. There’s no need to contract the land alone,” Eldest Uncle said. “Although the land in the countryside is not worth much, many people cherish it. If you want to contract it, it won’t be done in a short time.”
Second Uncle also nodded and said, “Yes, Mingming, if you want to farm, you don’t have to contract the land alone. You can follow us to farm and experience farming life. If you can adapt and endure this and this, it’s not too late for us to make a decision, right?”
“That’s right. Why don’t you experience farming first?” Second Aunt echoed. “Mingming, farming isn’t as simple as wielding a hoe and a shovel. Anyway, there’s so much land at home. In the future, you can try whatever you want. How about that?”
Grandpa Gu also said, “Mingming, Grandpa agrees with what your uncles and aunts said. There are so many plots of land in the family. If you want to learn how to farm, Grandpa won’t object. It’s just that Grandpa wants you to experience farming first. Find out for yourself it’s bitter, tiring, or fun. When you’re sure that you really want to contract land, we’ll make a decision. What do you think?”
She was the heir of a good family yet she did not want to inherit the billions of assets. Instead, she wanted to farm in the countryside. Grandpa Gu felt that his heart was stuffed.
Of course, as a good grandfather who doted on his granddaughter, he would fully support her no matter what decision she made!
Whether it was her sudden impulse or her insistence on fighting for her goal.
“Mingming, this kind of land is not that easy to farm. If you want to experience farming, there are many fields at home. You can have any piece of land you want,” Grandpa Shi said. “However, you have never farmed or relied on farming to make a fortune. It’s a little rash to directly contract the fields.”
… .
Everyone objected unanimously.
Gu Qingming thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright, I’ll experience farming in my own field first. However, Grandpa, Uncle, I want a piece of land of my own.” In other words, a piece of land that only belonged to her.
“No problem. How much do you want? We’ll leave it to you!” Grandpa said decisively. “You guys have no objections, right?”
“No!” The others shook their heads in unison.
Gu Qingming thought for a moment and said, “Then I want it for the time being. Yes, five plots.”
She could plant some vegetables in five plots of land.
It could be used to cultivate how to farm.
“No problem!”
“Mingming, what do you want to plant with the land? Do you want fields or drylands?”
“Fields!” Gu Qingming communicated with the little fairy with her consciousness and made her choice.
There was more water in the fields.
