I don't find it so tragic how Steven is handling it. The old lady is attached to her land – who knows why, sentimental reasons (the first night of love under the bush down there on the right!), because she is an old farmer and land has a completely different value there or God knows what else. She obviously doesn’t need the money, but she’s attached to the land. So she won’t sell it while she’s alive. Therefore, Steven doesn’t have to deal with neighbors he doesn’t like during her lifetime. So it can stay as it is. The old lady is content and happy, and so is Steven.
But since in a certain age you simply have to expect the death of a person and if I were Steven and knew who would inherit, I would also get in touch with the heirs. Maybe they’re also attached to the land and would never ever sell it (first night of love under the bush but on the left), then it would be fine for Steven as well. But the girls seem to have chosen a bed, are living somewhere else now and have no connection to that piece of land and will sell it. Therefore, it is more than sensible in Steven’s situation to signal to the two: I would like to buy the land if it comes to that! It’s the best solution for everyone, including the old lady! She keeps her land her whole life and the heirs know in case something happens that they don’t have to offer the property somewhere else, but can handle it conveniently. And Steven keeps unwanted neighbors away and then has an awesome piece of land (and my envy *g*)
