Chapter 211 -211: Scramble
“Mom, my sister-in-law and her family have already gotten two extra acres, so you should give that extra acre to me and Tiezhu!”
Mrs. Han licked her lips with a smile.
She wanted that extra acre of land too.
Mrs. Zhang spat at Mrs. Han in disgust, “Pah, wife of the fourth son, how can you be so shameless? Always fighting with me for everything? Your son is just a little boy, what are you fighting for? My son Changshun is about to get married and have children. If he doesn’t get an extra acre or two, how’s he supposed to find a wife?”
“Big sister-in-law, your son Changshun thinking of getting a wife? A man who dares to lust after his own aunt, who would dare marry him?” Mrs. Han deliberately mentioned the incident involving Gu Changshun and Su Yunjin, infuriating Mrs. Zhang so much that her face turned dark instantly, “You—!”
“What about me? Sister-in-law, what I said is known to everyone in Gu Family village, and it’s not like I’ve wronged your son.” In order to get that extra acre, Mrs. Han was directly confronting Mrs. Zhang.
While Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han, the wife of the fourth brother, were arguing red-faced and spitting mad, Mrs. An said, “Enough, stop fighting. That extra acre of land, I plan to give to the couple of the third son.”
“What? Give it to the third son’s couple?” After their initial shock, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han stopped fighting and unanimously objected, “Mom, why? Why should that extra acre go to the couple of the third son? They don’t even have a son nor a daughter. How can that extra acre be rightly given to the couple of the third son?”
“Exactly, Mom, you’re clearly playing favorites too blatantly! I don’t agree, and if you really give that acre to the couple of my third brother, I won’t accept it.”
Mrs. Han objected.
In Mrs. Han’s view, that extra acre should go to her and her husband.
How could it be given to Gu Ya and his wife?
With Gu Ya, that cripple, good land given to them would just be wasted.
Could they even work it?
Su Yunjin was also surprised that Mrs. An planned to give them the extra acre. However, surprise aside, Su Yunjin didn’t say anything. Since her mother-in-law Mrs. An wanted to give it to her,
she would gladly accept it.
It was an added bonus to annoy Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han, those two troublemakers.
Not bad at all.
Su Yunjin secretly reveled in it.
“Wife of the eldest son, wife of the fourth son, what’s wrong with Mom giving that extra acre to the third son’s couple? Back in the day, nearly half of Gu Family’s land was bought with the silver Gu Ya earned from hunting. Since he was the one who bought the land, isn’t it only right that Mom gives him an extra acre?”
Indeed, about half of Gu Family’s land was purchased with silver earned by Gu Ya’s hunting.
Mrs. An hadn’t mentioned it, but Mrs. Zhang and her crowd had long forgotten.
Now that Mrs. An brought it up, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han found it hard to make a fuss, although they still didn’t like the idea of that extra acre going to Su Yunjin and her husband. However, they said no more about it!
With Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han not making a scene anymore, the extra acre of land was finally allotted to Su Yunjin and Gu Ya.

The amount of land allocated to each person was decided, but the location of the plots was not yet determined. Mrs. Zhang was the first to speak up, “Mom, for Baofu and my four acres, we want the ones by the small forest.”
The fertile land next to the small forest was so good that one acre there was worth two elsewhere.
She had to stake her claim on those good acres first.
