Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"Dad, if I don't give up the land now, your grandson will have no land to farm." Jia Zhenye touched his head and said to his uncle Jia.

"Now that we've moved there, we can work on the newly opened vegetable fields nearby and raise pigs."

"If we get married and bring some cows to the village, it will save a lot of effort. If we don't move now, in two years, there won't be enough land to cultivate."

The nearby villagers also gathered around after hearing this. It sounded so reasonable that those families with many children planned to take the opportunity to build a few more houses.

Uncle Jia saw that everyone was gathering around him, and he quickly said, "Okay, you are right, what are you going to do?"

"The area at the foot of the mountain is all rocky, so we can't farm there. It's not possible to reclaim the land, so we'll just build it there. When we go to build the pig house tomorrow, we'll take a look at that area. There are about 30 households in our village, so one area is more than enough for each family. If there are more than two children in a family, I'll give them an extra area."

"Once the land is divided, I will talk to the government and ask them to use the land for growing crops and reduce our rent."

"it is good!"

Everyone applauded after hearing this. Otherwise, many families with several sons would worry about how to arrange their lives in the future. Now this way, the problem is solved directly. Moreover, the vacated space is not too big or too small. If they grow some crops, they can have a good meal the next year.

"Uncle, we don't need to do anything else seriously. We can just plant all the crops with sweet potatoes and use them to feed pigs, cows, and chickens." He continued.

"Okay, let's arrange it this way. When we can't open up the land in the winter, I will organize everyone to build houses." Jia Zhenye said.

"The stones we reclaimed this time will be of great use. We can use them to build greenhouses and houses." said a villager.

"What do we do with that kind of dish?" someone said.

"You're so stupid! Can't you just dig up the rocks on the ground? How much land do you need to grow vegetables? It will only take a few days."

"If you think it's too little, just keep growing. As long as you have enough energy, why worry about not having a vegetable field? I'm just afraid that by then you won't be willing to grow vegetables."

Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this.

"Alright, alright, everyone hurry back home. There's not much work to do in the fields recently. We'll go reclaim some land and build a greenhouse tomorrow. The area has been marked out, and everyone should get ready." Seeing that it was getting late, Jia Zhenye pushed everyone out, "Dahe, it's getting late, you should go back early."

Seeing Jia Laosi was about to go back, he said, "Jia Laosi, please stay for a moment. I have something to tell you."

Then he turned around and asked his wife to call Jia Laosi's wife.

Jia Laosi thought that they were going to talk about Jia Daya and Shazhu's marriage, so he happily stayed.

When Jia Laosi's wife came happily, Jia Zhenye closed the door and cursed at Jia Laosi.

"Jia Lao Si, how did you teach your daughter? What your daughter Jia Daya did in the city brought shame to our entire Jiajia Village."

"If what your daughter did gets out, how will the young people in our Jiajia Village get married?"

"Second brother, what happened to Daya?" Jia Laosi's wife cried. Jia Zhenye looked so scary.

"What else? She and Zhuzi have both registered, but she dislikes Zhuzi's mature looks. Someone used two pieces of candy to persuade her not to marry Zhuzi."

"Guess what? Your Jia Daya wants to marry that guy, but he's unwilling to do it because he despises Jia Daya because she's from the countryside."

"Oh my God, Jia Daya you are such an idiot..." Jia Laosi's wife howled after hearing this.

"Are you crying because you don't have the chance to live in the city?" Jia Dongxu suddenly asked from the side.

"Ah? What did you say? That's not true!" Jia Laosi's wife rolled her eyes and then quickly denied it.

"Oh, now I know why Jia Daya doesn't want to marry Zhuzi. It turns out it's all because of you."

Jia Dongxu pointed at Jia Laosi and his wife.

Jia Zhenye asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

"What's going on? It's just that Jia Laosi and his family want to go live in the city with Jia Daya."

"When they heard that Zhuzi's family had no parents, they had evil thoughts and asked Jia Daya to take them all to the city. Zhuzi didn't agree, so he fell in love with another young man in the yard whose parents were not around."

"Dongxu, what's wrong with Daya now?" Jia Laosi asked anxiously, "Didn't she register with Zhuzi? They are husband and wife, so isn't this a couple having a conflict? Why can't they get married?"

"Get out of here!" Jia Dongxu was too lazy to pay attention to him and said directly.

"How do you talk to your elders?" Jia Laosi's wife accused Jia Dongxu of disrespecting Jia Laosi.

"Bah, what kind of elder are you?" Qin Huairu couldn't stand it anymore and cursed immediately.

"How dare you say that? You've ruined a good marriage. And what right do you have to move into the city and live with your son-in-law? How shameless are you?"

"Okay, Huairu, don't pay attention to them." Jia Dongxu picked up their clothes and pulled Huairu up, "Huairu, let's go back to your house."

Jia Zhenye quickly stepped forward and said, "Dongxu, didn't you agree to go back to your own home?"

Jia Dongxu pointed at Jia Laosi and the other man and said, "Uncle, you see they didn't go to Chengcheng. You see they are going to eat me. It's safer for us to go to my father-in-law's house."

"What does this success or failure have to do with you?" Jia Zhenye said quickly.

Jia Dongxu said doubtfully, "Yeah, ask them why they are looking at me like that."

"If you take Daya to the city, you have to find a good husband for her and take us out of the village." Jia Laosi's wife stared at Jia Dongxu viciously and said.

"Uncle, look, this has nothing to do with me. If you say a few more words, they will come to the city to look for my family."

Jia Dongxu said angrily, "I didn't help them with the work, and I didn't bring them there. It was their family who arranged the marriage. It has nothing to do with me, and they're blaming me."

Jia Laosi's wife wiped her tears and said, "It's not your fault. We are all planning to move to the city. It's your fault that you didn't help to get the marriage resolved."

Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhenye in surprise, "Second uncle, is this family mentally healthy?"

"Even if they are married, it doesn't make sense for the son-in-law to support them."

"No wonder they raised a daughter who has no self-respect and only thinks about good things."

"Uncle, their family is not a good family. You should be careful in the future. Don't let them ruin the reputation of the village."

Jia Dongxu said with a headache, how could such weird words be said, making others act as if it was their due.

"Hmph! No matter what, you didn't get this done for me, so you must give me an explanation." Jia Laosi's wife said, pointing at Jia Dongxu with her hands on her hips.

"Hmm?" Jia Dongxu glanced at Jia Zhenye with a puzzled look.

"Snapped"

Jia Zhenye slapped Jia Laosi's wife in the face.

"shameless!"
