Farming Space Makes Me Rich

Just as Xiao Xiaohui was about to run outside, he bumped into someone. He fell with his butt to the ground.

"Xiao Yu!" Seeing the person he bumped into, Xiao Xiaohui and the others called out in joy.

"Sis!" Xiao Lingye was exceptionally happy when he saw his sister. "Why didn't you inform us you're coming back? We could go fetch you!" The young man snatched the luggage from Xiao Lingyu's hands and carried it into the house. As he carried the luggage, he looked behind Xiao Lingyu and asked with confusion, "Sis, where is Brother Ran? Didn't he come back with you?"

Everyone in the village knew that Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu were a couple. They were not yet engaged, so Xiao Lingye didn't refer to Chen Ran as his brother-in-law.

Chen Qiuying also looked around and asked in confusion, "That's right, Yu 'Er, didn't Chen Ran come back with you?"

Xiao Lingyu's expression changed with the mention of Chen Ran. She announced calmly, "Mom, I broke up with Chen Ran. Don't mention him in front of me again!"

The others looked at each other and agreed that Xiao Lingyu's sudden return must have something to do with Chen Ran.

Liu Chunhua was very observant. She grabbed Xiao Xiaohui out the door. She turned around and said, "Second Sister, I'm sure you and Ye 'Er have many things to catch up with Yu 'Er. We won't disturb your family reunion."

"Okay, Chunhua. See you later." Chen Qiuying nodded. This was family affairs, so Liu Chunhua excused herself.

After Liu Chunhua and Xiao Xiaohui left, Chen Qiuying's expression immediately changed. She ordered Xiao Lingyu, "Get in, and we'll talk!" Then she turned to Xiao Lingye, "Ye 'Er, go to the fields and get your father!"

"Yes!" Xiao Lingye wouldn't go against the head of the house, his mother.

After he placed Xiao Lingyu's luggage, he raced out. As he passed his sister, he whispered, "Sis, no matter what happens, I'm on your side. I'll go get help for you!"

The help was Father Xiao.

Mother Xiao frowned when she saw the siblings mumble to each other. She coughed and said, "Xiao Lingye, what are you doing? Hurry up to look for your father!"

"Yes!" Xiao Lingye immediately turned around and replied. Then, he quickly ran out.

Once Xiao Lingyu exited, Mother Xiao asked with a serious expression, "Tell me, what happened between you and Chen Ran?"

Mother Xiao knew her daughter well. If there were nothing serious, Xiao Lingyu wouldn't opt for a break-up. After all, Xiao Lingyu and Chen Ran had been in love since junior high. At the time, Mother Xiao was very against this because she worried a relationship would ruin Xiao Lingyu's studies. Mother Xiao beat and scolded Xiao Lingyu, but the girl insisted on being with Chen Ran. Xiao Lingyu promised that her study would not be affected.

In the end, Mother and Father Xiao relented. However, Mother Xiao did warn Xiao Lingyu that they were not allowed to do anything unless they got married. Or else they would disown Xiao Lingyu.

Thankfully, Xiao Lingyu lived up to her words. When she was dating Chen Ran, her results were still top of the class. Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu were the first and second place scorers, and they entered a famous university with excellent results together.

Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu's junior high didn't approve of the relationship between students so young. However, since both Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu did so well in class and exams, the staff chose to close an eye.

Later, this pair of young lovers even made their school proud. They got into a great university together.

Throughout university, Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu maintained a loving relationship.

So, how did all those years of relationship shatter after two years in the work field?

Xiao Lingyu did not hide anything. She said calmly, "He cheated on me, so we broke up."

Xiao Lingyu didn't go into details because she didn't want her mother to worry. Mother Xiao was about to ask for more when a loud shout from outside startled them.

"Chen Qiuying, get out of here now!"

Mother Xiao frowned. She glanced at Xiao Lingyu and said sternly, "Don't go out yet. I'll go take a look!"

Just moments ago, her daughter told her she had broken up with Chen Ran. And now Chen Ran's parents came to find her. Perhaps they had known about the break-up.

However, these were Chen Ran's parents. They would side with Chen Ran no matter what.

Xiao Lingyu nodded. She entered her room.

Chen Qiuying walked out of the house and saw eight people standing in her courtyard. The two people in the lead were relatively thin and small. They were in their fifties or sixties, but they were dressed in gaudy clothes. They were showing off.

These two were Chen Ran's parents, Chen Dahua and Lan Erying.

When Lan Erying saw Chen Qiuying, she demanded arrogantly, "Chen Qiuying, why are you so slow? Do you know how long we've been waiting for you?"

In Chen Qiuying's eyes, Chen Ran was the best man in the world. Xiao Lingyu must have collected plenty of karma in her previous life to catch the attention of her son.

Chen Ran's parents had stated their demand for an exorbitant amount of dowry. At the very least, Xiao Lingyu's parents had to provide them with a shop and a house in town. They also wanted a car. They didn't ask for the best car, only one around 100,000 RMB. Despite all these, Chen Ran's parents thought they were being kind to Xiao Lingyu's parents.

After all, their son, Chen Ran, was a manager at a large company. He had a high salary. Xiao Lingyu only had to enjoy luxury after she married Chen Ran.

Therefore, ever since Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu got together, Chen Ran's parents had been going around talking big. They said they would not allow Xiao Lingyu to marry Chen Ran unless the dowry was a shop, a house, and a car.

The Xiao Family was incensed when they heard this.

Thankfully, Xiao Lingyu's parents were reasonable people.

They saw how happy Xiao Lingyu was with Chen Ran. Furthermore, Chen Ran also promised them that he didn't need that much dowry from them. He only needed Xiao Lingyu.

That was why the Xiao Family did not counter anything the Chen Family said.

The Chen Family, though, took this as a sign of surrender. They believed Xiao Lingyu had no one else to marry other than Chen Ran. Therefore, the Chen Family always acted superior before the Xiao Family.

In the past, Chen Qiuying didn't want to argue with these people for the sake of her daughter. But now that her daughter had broken up with Chen Ran, she did not need to be polite with them anymore.

Mother Xiao took in their arrogant appearance and sneered, "Lan Erying, are you the empress? Why should I hurry out to welcome you? Who do you think you are?"

The Chen Family, "...."
