Juan Wang's Little Lady: Nongmen hunters work hard to plow the fields

Chapter 72 Meet the Mother-in-law
The three of them were chatting and laughing when they suddenly heard a report saying that Su Lian's mother, Mrs. Li, was coming soon.Yan Hengzhi left, and Su Lian and Zhang Jianshan rushed downstairs to greet Aji with him.

Mrs. Li expected that her daughter and son-in-law would go to the city today, so she dressed up early in the morning, prepared rouge and ointment for her daughter and good wine for her son-in-law, and then waited restlessly in the center of the mansion.Near noon, someone secretly handed over the post.Mrs. Li used the excuse of going out to offer incense, and came to meet her daughter and son-in-law in a carriage sent by Lu Mingxuan.

The last time it was also here at Lu Mingxuan, Mrs. Li wanted to persuade her daughter to climb another branch, but she didn't want to be taught a lesson by her daughter's earnest words.She thought in her heart that her daughter and son-in-law are already husband and wife, and it may not be a bad thing for the two to see their true feelings in adversity.Seeing my son-in-law again this time, I must thank him for taking care of Lian'er.

Mrs. Li got out of the carriage, but seeing her daughter and son-in-law were already waiting at the gate of Lu Mingxuan, she hurried over.When Su Lian saw her mother, she threw herself into her arms like a bird, and said coquettishly, "Mother, my daughter misses you so much!"

Zhang Jianshan looked at his wife's little girl's demeanor, and felt a little pity in his heart.

"See you." Mrs. Li called her son-in-law, her tone was much more affectionate and gentle than the previous few times they met.

"Greetings to my mother-in-law, how are you doing these days?" Zhang Jianshan saluted, and asked Aji to salute respectfully.

Mrs. Li saw her son-in-law smiling like three springs warming the sun, with a calm air, she also felt a little liking in her heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay."

Su Lianjiao said angrily: "Let's not stand on the street and talk, go up quickly. Mother has come on the way, she must be hungry."

Going up to the private room on the second floor, Mrs. Li first took out the good wine for her son-in-law, handed it to Zhang Jianshan, and said with a smile: "I saw that the mountain has been raised well these days, do you think Lian'er has not angered my uncle?"

Zhang Jianshan said with a smile: "Lian'er is virtuous, everyone in the village praises him, how can he accept Jianshan Qi?"

Hearing his words, Su Lian seemed ironic, afraid that he would expose her, she hurriedly interrupted: "What did mother bring to brother Jianshan?"

Mrs. Li said with a smile: "I entrusted someone to buy a good old wine from a century-old shop in Shuangqi Town. I gave it to my uncle to taste. If I feel good after drinking it, I will ask someone to buy it."

Zhang Jianshan noticed that his mother-in-law's attitude this time was different from the previous few times, presumably it was the last time Lian'er's words in Lu Ming Xuan had an effect.

Su Liansheng was afraid that her mother would feel that she was not doing well now, which would only increase her sorrow and anxiety, so she told her all about selling the golden pheasant and bear's paws, helping the wives and ladies to copy books, and agreeing to do business with Yan Dadong's family. My dear, but kept the matter of setting up a trap for the Su family's money.

Mrs. Li listened to each and every one, but she didn't expect her daughter to have developed so many skills in the past six months. While she was pleased, she couldn't believe it.She looked at Zhang Jianshan and asked, "Jianshan, is this all true?"

Zhang Jianshan said with a smile: "Back to my mother-in-law, Lianer's words are absolutely true. A new house is being built at home, and it will be completed in a few days. In spring, I will invite my mother-in-law to come and live with me."

Zhang Jianshan's proposal was exactly what Su Lian had in mind, but before he had time to discuss it with him, he did not expect him to think of it.

When Mrs. Li heard that their life was going well, she was overjoyed and said with a smile: "That's great, that's great. It's just that it's inconvenient for me to go there. After all, Lian'er is now the wife of the Zhang family..."

Zhang Jianshan said: "During these days, Lian'er has heart palpitations from time to time. I think it's because I've been thinking too much, and I'm worried that my mother will be wronged at home. No matter how I try to comfort her, it doesn't work. I'd better invite my mother-in-law to come and stay with Lian'er for a while. Today, when she is in a better mood, the heart palpitations should heal without treatment."

When Mrs. Li heard that her daughter had heart palpitations, she was very worried.Su Lian originally wanted to say that I had heart palpitations, but suddenly thought that this might be an excuse made up by Zhang Jianshan in order to coax his mother to come to live with him, so he cooperated with him in pretending to be sick, and said pitifully: "Lian'er is worried about my mother, and often sleeps at night. No, I feel flustered and uncomfortable, it would be great if my mother could come and stay with my daughter for a while."

Mrs. Li heard what her daughter and son-in-law said, so she agreed to come down and live in Zhangjia Village for a while after their new house was built.

Su Lian jumped up for joy when she heard that, she turned her head to look at Zhang Jianshan, her smiling eyes were full of gratitude.

Happiness knows no time.The whole family talked and laughed together for a while, and then it was the next day. Mrs. Li had been out for two hours. I was afraid that Su Qinming would be troubled by that bitch Aunt Zhao when she asked where she was, so she said that she was at home. I have work to do, I have to go home.

Even though Su Lian was reluctant to part, she had no choice but to get up to say goodbye.

As soon as she sent her mother away, Su Lian turned around and asked Zhang Jianshan: "How did brother Jianshan know that I wanted to invite my mother to live with me?"

Zhang Jianshan said with a smile: "What is Lian'er's mind so hard to guess? You are worried that if you are not with mother, your father and that aunt Zhao will join forces to bully mother-in-law."

Su Lian put away her smile, this was indeed something she was worried about every day, but right now she had no other choice.

Zhang Jianshan said again: "In more than a month, Aunt Zhao's deadline for lending interest money is up. She will naturally go to the noble owner you made up. When she finds that the building is empty and there are creditors coming to the door, she will naturally The incident happened in the east window. If your father knew that the house deeds and land deeds in the house had been sold, he might faint. Lianer must have already calculated how to clean up the mess. It’s just this farce, so there’s no need for the mother-in-law to watch it with her own eyes, otherwise Wouldn't it only increase the sadness?"

Su Lian stared blankly at Zhang Jianshan, who did not expect him to think so much and deeply for her in silence.

Zhang Jianshan smiled faintly: "What? Lian'er thought I only knew how to hunt in the mountains, and never cared about Lian'er's affairs?"

Su Lian lowered her head: "Of course not."

She was sad because no one was always on her side like him, no matter if she was willful or scheming and deceitful.

In the past, in the eyes of others, she was a cruel and ruthless woman, no one thought about her from her point of view, and what she did was nothing but forced.

Zhang Jianshan knew that his wife was worried about her mother, so Su Qinming spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, without any regard for the love of marriage, he could do such a thing that is not as good as a pig or a dog.But after all, it is a matter in the house, even if he has great power, he can't put his hand into other people's house to meddle in family affairs.The only way is to take the mother-in-law out temporarily, put her by her side to take care of her, and send her back when the matter subsides.

Su Lian was moved for a while, and said with a smile: "When mother comes, she will help with the housework, and Lian'er will cook more delicious food for brother Jianshan when she has time."

Aji ate by the side for a whole noon, and now he was lying on the table and fell asleep.Zhang Jianshan glanced at the cub, smiled bitterly and said, "Lian'er should do less, I think Aji is about to grow into a piglet."
