Chapter 250 Selling Fields

Mrs. Zhang twitched the corners of her lips: These two couples are still complaining to each other, didn't you see that Du Jinning was in charge of the whole speaking rhythm?It's just a dream that these two stupid IQs still want to fight Du Jinning.

I don't know how the whole family was played to death by him.

She said coolly: "What did I say first? I told you not to go to Ning Ge'er, and if he came back, don't ask him to help. You just didn't listen. Now, not only did you not ask for mercy, but Offended him. I don’t know if the second brother will be exiled to other worse places.”

Du Chensheng and Niu were taken aback: "No way?"

"Why not? Didn't he just say that it's worse? It's hard to ask for love, but it's not easy to want bad things? If he asks someone to pass a sentence to the Yamen, others will praise him for killing relatives with righteousness."

"What... what should we do?" Niu was so frightened that he lost his mind and looked at Du Chensheng.

The corner of Du Chensheng's mouth moved, but he didn't speak.

What can he do?
He glanced at Du Yunyi, then at Mrs. Zhang, and said to Mrs. Zhang with a gentle expression: "Why don't you help persuade him? At least he still has face with you. If you talk about it, he might listen."

Mrs. Zhang nodded: "Success, I'll persuade you." Then she stood up, beckoned to her husband and left Du's house together.

She wouldn't try to persuade Du Jinning, but she just wanted to take advantage of this to leave Du's house.

Du Jinning had taken the mule cart when they came, so they had to go to Zheng Lin's house to see if there was any car to go back.

On the Chen side, it wasn't until the mule cart left Taohua Village and headed for the city that Chen came back from his bewildered state and looked at Du Jinning dreamily: "Are we back like this?"

She thought that there would be a lot of entanglement today, and in the end, she and Du Jinning might be beaten up by Du Chensheng and Niu Shi.According to filial piety, if those two punished them to kneel down, they really couldn't resist, they could only kneel down and be punished honestly.

Du Jinning snorted and said, "Aren't you coming back? Are you still staying there for dinner?"

At this moment, Mrs. Chen felt very relaxed, and cast a glance at Du Jinning; "You child, you know that mother didn't mean that."

The coachman was in front, and Du Jinning couldn't say anything, so she leaned back, closed her eyes, and tried to rest up.

"That's right." Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered something, "Why aren't your second aunt and brother Shou not at home today?"

Du Jinning opened his eyes: "They went to visit the second uncle in prison."

"How do you know?" Chen asked curiously.

She was with Du Jinning just now, but no one told Du Jinning where Yao Shi went.

"Yesterday, I asked my aunt to dismiss them on purpose. The second aunt has no reason to say, so I don't want to argue with her." Du Jinning knew that Chen still wanted to ask, so he simply said, "My aunt and I yesterday We met at the teahouse."

Now Chen was speechless.

Du Jinning has done many things behind her back.

Du Jinning patted the back of her hand: "Don't worry, mother. Everything is with me, and you can enjoy your happiness with peace of mind."

Chen felt comforted and sad at the same time.

This child has to worry about everything at such a young age, it's useless for her to be a mother.

Two days later, Du Yunnian, who had been staying in the prison, was sent to the border town mine along with a group of prisoners.When Du Chensheng and Niu returned home after seeing him off, they each lay on the bed.

Yao Shi has no time to be sad.

When I saw her off just now, the guards said that if she didn't hand over the 50 taels of silver to the yamen within ten days, they would arrest her and Du Jinshou and let them go to the mine to dig to pay off the debt.

So Mrs. Yao tossed Mrs. Niu up from the hospital, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a quarrel.

"The family is separated, I have no money, and I will bear the debt of my own man." Niu Shi said, "If you want to make trouble again, I will divorce you for Yunnian."

Yao shi has nothing to miss about Du Yunnian, and he doesn't know if that man will come back.Even if I can come back, I don't know what it will be like.But she couldn't bear the good life of the Du family.Besides, she still has a son, and she still loves her son when she is no longer around five or six.

She had no choice but to go back to her natal family to ask for advice.

The sister-in-law of the Yao family directly called her stupid.

"The disaster was caused by the Du family. Why do you want to pay it back? You said that the family is not divided. In this case, since the land belongs to your house, if you want to sell it, you don't do their business. You put the land Wouldn’t it be enough to sell it to pay off the debt? Look at our family, who has one or two taels of silver on him, and he probably wakes up laughing at night from his dreams. Where can I lend you ten taels and 20 taels?”

A word awakens the dreamer.

Mrs. Yao hurried back to Taohua Village, instead of going home, she went directly to Zhang Guangyi and asked Du Yunnian to sell all the land under Du Yunnian's name.

Apart from the Du brothers, the richest person in the village is Zhang Guangyi.

These days, it is not easy to buy good paddy fields close to home, so Zhang Guangyi is naturally moved.But Yao shi wanted to sell the field, and the sale would cost thirteen acres, so he naturally couldn't not inform Du Chensheng.

Du Chensheng and Niu Shi knew that they were almost vomiting blood from anger.The two quickly got up from the bed and rushed to Zhang's house.

As soon as they entered the door, the two were dumbfounded, and saw that the room was crowded with people, all of whom were Yao's natal family.

This was not the time to date relatives, so Niu directly approached Yao and asked her, "Do you want to sell the land?"

Yao rolled her eyes: "If you don't pay the debts with the money, if I don't sell the land, why don't I take Brother Shou to mine?"

Du Chensheng said in a hurry: "Even if you want to pay off the debt, it is enough to sell five acres. Why do you have to sell the other eight acres together? After selling the field, how will your mother and son live?"

"Brother Shou and I don't need to eat or dress? Yunnian is not at home, and you don't care about us. Why don't our mothers starve to death? Naturally, we sold our fields and got money to live on." Yao said matter-of-factly.

Everyone in the room was speechless.

Holding eight acres of land in his hand, he still has to starve to death, how lazy must this person be?People rent other people's fields to plant, and they have to support a large family, and they can still live well.

But Yao Shi didn't think so.

Ever since Xiaosanfang left, Niu forced her to work in the fields, and she felt worse than death.Now that all these fields are sold, the extra five or sixty taels of silver will be enough for the two of them to eat until Du Yunnian returns from the border town.When he comes back, or rely on him, or ask him to ask his parents, the family will always have something to eat.

Besides, if she and Du Jinshou were going to starve to death without food, could Du Chensheng and his wife still ignore them?After all, Du Jinshou was their grandson, and after so many years of heartache, he couldn't really starve to death.

Du Chensheng looked at Yao shi in disbelief, turned his head and pointed at Yao shi and said to the old lady Yao: "Mother-in-law, are you just pampering her like this?"

　Khan, I've been confused twice. I thought that the drafts I kept in the draft box the night before would be sent out on time at eight o'clock.Fortunately, after more than ten minutes, I didn't feel relieved to take a look, and found that the time was set to 18:[-].
