Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

Qian Xiuzhu and Jiang Huaixu's premonition came true. It rained heavily for three consecutive days without any sleep.

"Daughter-in-law, didn't you say there was a severe drought in your dream? Why does it keep raining?" Jiang Dalang looked out the window, his face full of sorrow.

Their home is close to the mountains and the terrain is relatively high. However, some houses in the village are not only low-lying, but also have thatched houses. At this time, no one can live in them, so they can only rent them to other people's homes.

What worried him most was the harvest in the fields.

Qian Xiuzhu was also a little dumbfounded. A drought turned into a flood. This, this was a huge change.

"My boss, there was no such heavy rain in my dream. I originally thought that the disaster would take some time to come, so I just bought a cart of grain. If the rain keeps falling, it won't be enough... ·”

She thought for a moment and continued: "I thought that while the price of food has not risen much now, I can go to the town to buy some. Our house is on a high ground and the house is strong. As long as there is no flood, it will not be easily flooded. So I can stock up on more food." There’s room for it too.”

Boss Jiang was moved and said, "I'll go discuss it with our father." He was about to go out, then he paused and said, "Make clothes and light the oil lamp, otherwise it will cost your eyesight."

"Hey..." Qian Xiuzhu responded.

On the other side, Jiang Huaixu and Jiang Wei also put up wooden windows to watch the rain.

There are still dark clouds in the sky, with no sign of dispersing.

Jiang Wei sighed, "It's really annoying that it keeps raining. I can't go out to play."

"The places where several families live in the village have collapsed. We are much better off than them. Sister, just be content." Jiang Huaixu said while flipping through the book.

Seeing that the room was getting darker and darker, she threw the book aside, raised her head and looked at Jiang Wei, "If it keeps raining, maybe people will come to our house."

Just as Jiang Wei was about to say something, the chaotic voices mixed with the sound of rain caught her attention.

Jiang Huaixu also followed the sound. In the courtyard, the village chief was wearing a raincoat and had an anxious look on his face. He was shouting something to Mr. Jiang. The sound of rain blocked the human voice, so she didn't hear it clearly.

"Yao Mei, have you ever opened your mouth? Someone really wants to come to our house, right?"

Jiang Huaixu didn't answer, Fu Tuan was repeating to her word for word what the village chief and Boss Jiang said.

Its retelling is not an empty parrot, but the timbre and tone are exactly the same.

Village Chief: "The second uncle's house was flooded. You also know that his shabby thatched hut has not been repaired for many years. Now the house is full of water. Along with his house, your second brother's house was flooded. He The situation at home is better, but Aunt Liu is also making noises about coming to live with you, you see..."

The village chief is over forty years old, but he is the same generation as Boss Jiang, and the second cousin he talks about is the grandfather of Tianya and Xiaofeng.

The relationship was somewhat complicated. For convenience, Jiang Huaixu usually called him Second Grandpa.

Mrs. Liu was afraid that her family was getting angry again, and she was shameless and acted like a monster again. Let's not say who she was partial to in her heart. Just talking about the previous enmity between the original woman and Mrs. Liu, they would never be able to live together calmly under the same roof.

While her mind was spinning, she heard Boss Jiang reply: "Brother Zhengmao, you also know the difficulties of my family. If you can choose, let Er Tang uncle come to live with me. I also want to take Da Lang Erlang out tomorrow. Go to the town to buy some food and come back to camp there. If the old and the young are left, my stepmother and stepmother will live in each other. I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble!"

Village chief Jiang Zhengmao reacted immediately, "Are you afraid that the rain won't stop for a while?"

"This is called taking precautions before they happen. If it rains for a long time, it will be difficult to pay taxes on the food. How can anyone eat it?"

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange for the second cousin's family to move into your home. You ask your younger siblings to find a place where they can live. I'll leave first..."

Fu Tuan's vivid retelling came to an abrupt end.

"Yao Mei, what are you doing? Why are you ignoring me?" Jiang Wei saw that she had said a lot and Jiang Huaixu didn't make any movement, so she couldn't help but push her.

Jiang Huaixu looked up at her: "I heard it. The village chief's uncle said that the second grandfather and his brother-in-law's house had been flooded. They were looking for a place to live. Dad chose the second grandfather."

Jiang Wei patted her chest, "That's good, that's good."

Fortunately she wasn't that evil woman, otherwise there would have been trouble at home.

Qian Xiuzhu in the next room thought the same thing.

Jiang Shujian's house was also built with blue bricks and large tiles. The terrain was a bit low, but it was much better than the second cousin's family. She suspected that Mrs. Liu had set her sights on her family again.

Now that it has been decided, Boss Jiang wants to settle down his second cousin first and then go to town tomorrow.

He called Jiang Dalang, put on his raincoat, and went to the second uncle's house to help pack things.

Seeing the father and son walking away, Qian Xiuzhu was a little worried.

When building a house, in order to accommodate a family, each house was deliberately built larger, and each room was separated by wooden boards to barely fit in.

Now, plus the second cousin's family of four, we can only force it.

Boss Jiang, who came to the second uncle's house, didn't know his wife's distress, and he was also very distressed at this time.

"Boss Jiang, please make it clear to me that you would rather Mrs. Wang and her family live in your home than your younger brother and his family. What's the point of this!"

"Although I haven't treated you well in the past, I have never left you with less food or clothing. Go and see how many stepmothers in Shiliba Village can be as good as me. What a wolf-hearted thing you are. I can’t remember the slightest bit, huh?!”

The last sharp question was directed at Boss Jiang, leaving him speechless for a long time.

He never expected that Mrs. Liu would stand in front of Er Tang Bo's door in the heavy rain with an oil umbrella and argue with him.

Seeing that Boss Jiang and Jiang Dalang couldn't hold back a fart for a long time, Mrs. Wang was so anxious that she scratched her head.

She grabbed the oil umbrella from the village chief's hand, opened it and rushed to the battlefield with great momentum.

After so many days of practice, she was able to compete with Mrs. Liu back and forth several times.

"Mr. Liu, do you feel guilty for saying this? When Xiaoliang was still a boy, he was skinny and skinny. He came to our house several times to beg for food. You, a black-hearted woman, didn't give us anything to eat. Treat him like a bully and fuck him from dawn to sunset, leaving a teenage boy with injuries all over his shoulders and legs. I feel bad for you when I think about it!"

As she said this, Mrs. Wang choked up.

"Is he your son or mine? As a young man, shouldn't he be filial to his elders? Do you want you to be so careless here?" Mrs. Liu's sparse eyebrows stood up, looking even more mean.

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang's sadness was swept away, and she spat at Mrs. Liu, "You, an old widow who was divorced, still want to be shameless? Now I am his legitimate second uncle, and he must be filial and filial." Honor me, you are nothing...”

In the end, the two of them almost started fighting in the mud. The village chief and Boss Jiang tried to stop the fight, but it was of no use. It was the second uncle who went to the clan leader to calm down the dispute.

Mrs. Liu is most afraid that the Jiang clan will drive her out of Shili Village. If she is really kicked out, she will have no place to go.
