The old lady is reborn

Huanqing was silent for a long time, then said to Huanxi, “Two children must have a mother, and it would be good for the mother to have two companions if she lives alone.

One of us is in Yancheng and the other is in Huyang County, so we can't take care of them in time. The three of them living together can also take care of each other."

Huanxi looked at her eldest brother, feeling angry: "Your father-in-law and mother-in-law always put their hands in their sleeves every time they come, and never do any work except to take advantage of others. Do you think they are taking care of each other, or is it your mother who is taking care of them?"

The celebration fell silent again.

"Okay, brother, I know what you mean.

We have just moved, our things are in disarray, and the kitchen is not even lit yet, so we will not host your entire family for dinner."

Huanxi turned and went into the inner room, and together with Lu Xiaolan, they put some heavy stuff, including several farm tools, into the barn one by one.

Huanqing felt guilty and embarrassed, so he followed to help. Just as he was about to say something, Huanxi spoke first: "The people that Big Brother hired to remodel the house, do they only listen to Big Brother?

If mother wants to change something, does her opinion count? "

After hearing this, Huan Qing felt that things had taken a turn for the better and that his sister's attitude had softened, so he quickly said, "Of course, mother can change it however she wants."

"Okay, then we'll go find the person in charge of remodeling the house and tell him what's going on."

"to make!"

"Also, who will pay for the renovation of the house?"

"I'll pay. I've already paid the deposit."

"Brother, you are very filial to your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

After hearing this, Huanqing looked at his sister suddenly, but saw that the expression on her face was very peaceful, neither sad nor happy, neither angry nor annoyed, and she spoke these words calmly.

So much so that Huanqing couldn't be sure whether this was a mockery.

Because his sister had said that she would not leave any food for them, and such a small house was indeed too small to accommodate them, Huanqing led the whole family back to Yancheng.

But for some reason, Huanqing always felt a little uneasy.

Time passed quickly. When Huanqing, at his wife's urging, brought his father-in-law, mother-in-law, wife and children to the village again, he found that everyone looked at them strangely.

Huanqing originally wanted to go to the small rented house to visit his mother first, but everyone else wanted to see the expanded and renovated new house first. After all, that was where his father-in-law and mother-in-law were going to live, so it was natural for them to be anxious. So Huanqing and everyone else went to the old house where construction had begun first.

When several people got here and took a look, they were stunned. There was no new house for them to live in.

This is already a school and is almost completed.

Huanqing was also a little panicked. The old house left by his parents had completely disappeared? He went to find the foreman who took over the job, but the foreman said, "It was modified according to your mother's instructions. The drawings were obtained by the village chief."

I went to ask the village chief what was going on.

The village chief said, "Celebrate! Your mother has sold the house and the land. From now on, this will be where the children from the three or five nearby villages will go to school.

Our three villages have pooled the money and have already paid it to your mother. In addition to the children from our three villages who come to study, the children from other villages have to pay extra.

We will also refund the labor and masonry fees you paid initially and second time and give them to your mother."

Huanqing's mother-in-law was furious: "Why does she sell the house? Huanqing is the only male in his family. Doesn't this house belong to him? Why do you outsiders take away someone else's house?"

The village chief looked at her and said, "We paid the money and have the deed. If someone really wants to take away someone else's house, it's not us."

Several people were stunned. Huanqing's mother-in-law sat down on the ground and began to slap her thighs and howl: "Why are our lives so miserable? We were deceived by our in-laws. Now we have no roof over our heads. They are trying to force us to death."

The village chief said, "It's not impossible for you to have a house if you want one."

My mother-in-law immediately quieted down.

"Just pay five times the compensation as per the deed, and we will find a new place right away."

The mother-in-law started to howl again: "Who is capable of doing such a wicked thing..."

The father-in-law came up and scolded: "Stop crying, go ask your in-laws."

The group then headed towards Aunt Li's small house, but just as they were about to go in, Aunt Li called out to them, "Huanqing, where are you going?"

"I'm looking for my mother."

"I've moved away and don't live here anymore."

Huan Qing was surprised: "Where did you move to?"
