"Dad, have all the fields been tenant-farmed?" Lian Shouxin asked.
"They have," Old Master Lian nodded and passed the contract to Lian Shouxin.
Lian Shouxin, who could only recognize a few characters, glanced over the contract before handing it over to Lian Manman. Wu Lang and Xiao Qi crowded over and looked at the contract with Manman.
"Grandpa, you've farmed thirty acres?" Manman asked as she read.
Seeing that Manman understood the contract, Lian Shouren turned his head and looked at her for a while before looking away.
"Yes, I have tenant-farmed thirty acres from Scholar Wang," Old Master Lian said, "right to the north, not far from our own lands, and all of it is fertile."
As Old Master Lian spoke, he packed a pipe of dry tobacco, lit it, and began puffing away.
