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

After Huang Ying finished speaking, she looked at Chang Xi with a pair of clear eyes.

Chang Xi felt guilty, thinking that Huang Ying had heard from somewhere that his family had sold Chang Sheng, so his eyes were a little dodgey, and he kept saying "No", but he didn't know how to say it.

In the past, when the eldest brother was still at home, all the workers in the field and house were well organized, so there was no need to worry about it and put in a little effort. Now the situation is indeed much worse than before.

Later, when she was gambling on longevity, her mother spent a lot of money to help her pay off her gambling debts. She almost couldn't get a wife and sold more than three acres of land.

Chang Xi felt excited at the thought of selling his land!

Ever since her former daughter-in-law mentioned the marriage, Xiuxiu refused to eat or drink, and just resisted.

The cow doesn't drink water and can't hold her head down. That girl has always been stubborn. If she refuses to obey, even her parents can't tie her up. If this girl gets carried away and commits suicide, the man won't recognize her either. Corpse!

Xiuxiu doesn't want to fill the hole for Changshou, and is afraid that she will have to sell her land in the end.

The family has a total of 17 or 18 acres of land. Years ago, they bought three and a half acres for Changshou Ping's gambling debt. In addition to their six taels of betrothal gift, my parents added some more money to the remaining money, and together they made up twenty taels. To live longer and pay off gambling debts.

There are only fourteen acres of land left at home. During this time, I accompanied my husband to identify the land, and I also saw that the wheat was not growing well, and I was afraid that the yield would be reduced when the harvest came.

There are six mouths in the family, and after paying taxes, the remaining belts may not be enough to eat.

Thinking of this, Chang Xi felt dissatisfied. In the past, he was not in good health. He thought of killing a chicken to replenish his health, and his parents scolded him!

Now it's Changshou's turn. For twenty taels of silver, even if he sells his land, he has to repair the holes for him.

Seeing Changshou's brows furrowed and looking thoughtful, Huang Ying relaxed a little and just listened, with a look of panic on her face.

Changshou thought about it for a while, but realized that his future was bleak. He looked up and saw that his husband had a worried look on his face. He thought that Huang Ying had always put herself first since she got married and was very gentle and considerate to herself.

Now that I saw that he was disturbed by these things, I felt sorry for him, and I was busy trying to comfort him.

Said: "Don't worry, when the family sold land to pay for Changshou, the patriarch said personally that Fantian clan members can only sell their land to treat the elderly and weak children. If he knows which family is selling it for food and drink, Whoring and gambling will ruin your family's career, those who deserve to be divorced will go home, and those who deserve to be exterminated will be exterminated!"

After Huang Ying listened carefully, her eyes flashed, but her expression relaxed, and she said: "The patriarch really has a far-sighted vision. Eating, drinking, whoring and gambling are not the source of ruin for the family. He eats more salt than we walk. , he is willing to exterminate the descendants of the same clan, which shows how hateful these things are!"

After Changshou comforted Huang Ying, he thought about what he said and felt a little relieved.

With the clan leader's words suppressing him, my parents would not dare to sell their land easily.

"Husband, you go and have a rest nearby, and I will dig some more bamboo shoots. The spring bamboo shoots are fresh and tender, less bitter, and eating them with wild vegetables and grain porridge can also comfort your stomach!"

Before getting married, I asked someone to inquire about these things about the Tian family. Even if I didn't know everything in detail, I was pretty good at it.

It's just that I didn't go through the door at that time, but I was dissatisfied with the Tian family's land sale, and I couldn't stretch my hand too far, but now it's different.

These days, he watched with cold eyes. Except for his mother-in-law, everyone in the family, such as his father-in-law and sister-in-law, treated Changshou very coldly.

Huang Ying picked up the shovel, lowered her eyebrows, and focused on digging the bamboo shoots in the barren area!

The soil here is firm and compact, and the bamboo shoots that grow there are mostly thin and sometimes thick, and the taste is much bitter.

He is a man who likes to eat delicious food but is also afraid of working. It happened that my mother-in-law asked her to eat frugally during this period.

It only takes three to five days to save him. I don't believe he won't make trouble with his mother-in-law!

When Liu Yu and Chang Sheng saw that they were talking about something else, they quietly walked away!

From the words of Huang Ying and Chang Xi, it is not difficult for them to guess that Changshou is itching again. Nine times out of ten he loses when gambling. No one can make a fortune at the gambling table. However, many people lose by selling their sons and daughters and eventually go bankrupt.

Thinking of what Xiuxiu had begged to him before, she said that if Changshou gambled money again, she would ask him to break his legs.

I agreed at that time and counted the days. It seemed like I had never seen Xiuxiu again for so long before and after.

Xiuxiu is not looking for trouble on her own, so naturally she can't look for trouble on her own.

And from what I heard just now, I also know that Changxi's husband is a very smart and talented person. I think he hopes that someone will take over the hot potato of longevity, and his own family cannot be involved in it.

The two of them went home with their backpacks on their backs. Nian and Liu Meixiang had already returned.

The grandfather and grandson were sitting around a pile of wild vegetables, talking and choosing vegetables!

"Yeah, the toon sprouts are sprouting!"

There were several large handfuls of red toon heads in a basket at Liu Meixiang's feet. Before she got closer, she smelled a scent, and the stems were tender when she saw them.

The first crop of Chinese toon has a strong fragrance, which is rare. Liu Yu loves to eat it. Looking at these Chinese toons makes her heart happy.

"Hesheng broke a lot of them from the mountain. This is the second crop. I dug wild vegetables with your Aunt Lin. She caught a lot of them from Hesheng's basket. She just said you like to eat them!"

Nian said happily.

These days are busy every day, and before I know it, the branches are full of new green, and I even missed the first stubble of toon!

Liu Yu sniffed the scent of toona with her nose, feeling a little regretful.

"If you and I don't have anything to do tomorrow, I'll go to the mountain to fold some. Let's pickle some this year too!"

Liu Yu removed the backpacks from her and Changsheng's backs and smiled.

Nian was obedient and nodded with a smile.

Changsheng moved two matzas, sat with him in front of a pile of wild vegetables, and began to choose vegetables.

There are many wild vegetables that can be eaten in spring, but Nian and Liu Meixiang only dig up pigweed and dandelions, as well as a few handfuls of fresh wolfberry sprouts. These are the only three types of wild vegetables in the pile.

Liu Yu chose wild vegetables and listened to Mr. Nian's arrangements for today's lunch. Finally, Liu Yu thought about what she heard in the bamboo forest, and her heart moved and she said, "I haven't been walking around the village for many days. Is there anything new at home?"

"There is one incident, which is nothing new. I heard from Aunt Lin that Shui Sanmei is a woman who is known to betray her husband in front of outsiders!"

"I have met that child several times. Although he is less talkative, he is still polite. He is an ignorant person and does not know his seniority, but he still has some words in his mouth!"

"I heard Brother Xian's mother say that he is a first-rate good man, he is diligent and thrifty, and he is down-to-earth and willing to work. He does not miss any work in the fields at home. As soon as the ground thaws, he carries a rake and plows the edges of the fields. Except for the frozen rapeseed, the sweet potatoes are all ready."

Speaking of Tian Fugui's rapeseed that froze to death, Nian said again that the villagers were very careful in planting the rapeseed. Even though the leaves were damaged by the freezing weather during the heavy snow, everything was green again this spring.

Only Tian Fugui's family froze to death with their roots. It was obvious that the pits were not dug properly, the water was not poured properly, and the soil was not cultivated properly when planting!

Those rapeseed seedlings were really wasted.
