Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

"So you're worried about this."

Nian took another look at Liu Maolin, who looked nervous, and frowned secretly.

Turning to look at Liu Meixiang, she said with a smile: "Although your father's words are unlucky, we can't rest assured. Let's do this. When you go to work in the fields during the day, you can send Xiaoxue to the old house, so that you can rest assured." , I, an old woman, also have someone to keep me company!”

Feeling that everything was safe, Nian gave Liu Maolin a warning look, and then asked how much money the homestead cost.

"Either I don't need the money anymore, I'll lend it to Mei Xiang for use first, and then... return it to the clan in the future."

Everyone understood the clan leader's unfinished thoughts. To be honest, Nian was unwilling to let Mei Xiang live alone with Xiaoxue at such an age.

What will Mei Xiang do when Xiaoxue gets married in the future? Some people can have more children in their thirties. Mei Xiang is not that old. Life is so long, so why can't she meet the right person again?

Nian looked at Liu Meixiang with some hesitation.

"Mei Xiang appreciates the kindness of the clan leader, but it's just a matter of what to do!" Mei Xiang paused, smiled bitterly and continued: "To be honest with the clan leader, you lent me this homestead for nothing. I don't feel at ease living here. When will the clan's homestead be settled?" If the base doesn’t help me and asks me to move out, what should I do?”

When Nian and others heard this, their hearts tightened, and they did not dare to take advantage of this in vain.

The clan leader didn't think so much, and Mei Xiang's considerations were not unreasonable. She thought about it for a while and said: "The width of the homestead is enough to build three houses. There is still room in front of and behind the house. Go all the way to the back. It’s all along the water’s edge.”

This is also the reason why that homestead is left. It is not wide enough to build a house, and it is close to water, so snakes and insects can easily get into the house.

"Let's do it like this. You give me three hundred coins and I'll get the land deed for you. The money will be distributed to the clan when the time comes. With the deed in your hand, no one will use it to talk about it in the future!"

The price can be said to be very affordable. Nian and others were very surprised, and Liu Meixiang was also surprised. She originally thought that she couldn't buy it for even 500 coins, but she could do a lot of things with the 200 coins saved!

Liu Meixiang stood up, bowed, and thanked the clan leader seriously.

"Don't be polite. Your surname is Liu. Don't think too much. Live your life smoothly in the future. That's better than anything else!"

It was getting late, and the clan leader was about to go home. Liu Fusheng and Nian hurriedly ordered the eldest son and the third son to send the clan leader home in person.

After seeing off the clan leader, those who were still in the old house were all members of their own family. The three Liu Fan brothers and Chen Jinmei had already cleaned up the hall and put away everything that needed to be cleaned.

Thinking that her eldest son had mentioned Li Weizi's abnormality just now, Nian asked Liu Yu to divide the leftovers among them and go back to bed early.

Arrangements were made for Qi Chunhua and Liu Yan and Liu Fan.

Nian and Liu Fusheng took Xu Hongfu to the main house again.

Xiaoxue was already a little tired, and Nian felt a little distressed when she thought that Xiaoxue could only eat a bowl of rice tea.

"Take Xiaoxue to eat, I have something to say with your mother!"

After sending Liu Meixiang away who had followed him into the house, Nian sat on the kang and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law who looked confused.

Suddenly said: "Tell me, what happened just now, boss!"

"What's going on!"

"Why can't we live in Liweizi?" Nian made it clear!

There are only four households in the surrounding area. Widow Zhou and Li Tietou are one household, Li Dongsheng and his sick grandma Ding are one household, and Huang Laoer and his wife are one household. This old couple only has one brother, one daughter, and two Everyone has married, and now there are only two old couples left!

There is also an old man and his wife named Xu. The old man was good at hunting when he was young. He is the uncle of Xu Liang in the village. He has quite some savings. Although he has no children, his life is not bad.

Except for Widow Zhou, who is more aggressive, the other old people are kind and good-tempered, and will not embarrass Mei Xiang.

Don't think he didn't see it. When the boss heard the sparks in Li Weizi's eyes, it could burn someone.

"There's nothing we can't live in!" Xu Hong's eyes dodge, seeing her mother-in-law's impatience, she didn't dare to fool her.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Meixiang's father is careful, there is a lot of water there, isn't he afraid that Xiaoxue will fall into the water!"

"Really?"

"That can still be false. You don't know how much Mei Xiang's father is usually obsessed with Luya and the others, and he looks at his children with the same eyes."

Nian looked at her eldest daughter-in-law carefully. Although she was still a little suspicious, she had no choice but to believe her words for the time being.

...........................

night.

The Liu family's big room.

Xu Hong lay on the kang, listening to the small breathing of her two grandchildren, thinking about what her mother-in-law asked her, and couldn't fall asleep.

Use your elbow to gently tap your husband twice, who is sleeping with his back to you.

Liu Maolin was still angry that his old wife didn't help him tonight. She lay down and slept since she came back, and she didn't say a word to Xu Hong.

"Mom asked me something, why can't I live in Liweizi anymore?"

Xu Hong knew that Liu Touhou was not asleep, so she teased the person twice and saw that the person ignored her. She was a little angry and said to herself.

"That boy always thought about Mei Xiang and was so attentive to me. Don't think I don't know what he is thinking!"

Maybe Liu Maolin was angry when he thought about the past, and he was a little irritable when he spoke.

"We, Mei Xiang, were in her prime at that time. As the saying goes, a gentle lady is a good gentleman. If others are courteous to Mei Xiang, they are also pleased with her. She is also a good young man. Why don't you like her?"

Xu Hong knew that the boy her husband was talking about was Li Dongsheng. There was no one else around at the moment, and she was not afraid of anyone hearing it. Xu Hong said what she had not asked back then.

"Who knows the etiquette of asking a matchmaker to come to your door to ask for a hand in marriage? He is so frivolous that he catches a bamboo rat with a flower or a rabbit just to seduce Mei Xiang."

"If others see the gossip, it's not Mei Xiang who's being talked about. I'm doing it for Mei Xiang's own good, but in your eyes, I'm a heinous sinner!"

Mei Xiang has not been doing well these past few years, and she is indifferent to her father when she comes to visit her during festivals. Liu Maolin can't help feeling that his daughter is dissatisfied with him.

He didn't understand that everything he did was for Mei Xiang's sake, so why did he end up falling for her in the end?

Xu Hong never knew that her husband looked down on Li Dongsheng because he thought he was ungrateful. She always thought that he thought that Li Dongsheng's parents were dead and he only had a sick grandma. The medicine cost only a sum of money, so he was afraid that Mei Xiang would have a hard time in the future. I didn’t like Li Dongsheng just now!

He actually just thinks that children's affection is frivolous.

"I thought you disliked his poor family!"

Xu Hong couldn't tell what she was feeling, so she took a long breath and said quietly.

"I am the kind of person who despises poverty and loves wealth. You underestimate me too much!"

Liu Maolin felt that he was being looked down upon and was very angry, and his voice became louder.

"Why are you yelling at me? You don't care about poverty and love wealth. You are just a blind old man!"

When asked why her husband didn't like Li Dongsheng, Xu Hong felt even more depressed.
