farmer's little girl

Chapter 11

"They have something to say. It's not their turn to be the head of the Mei family."

Liu Shi is an extremely kind old man, being able to say such words shows that she is already very dissatisfied with these two people.

"It's also fortunate that the third child is a smart one. At the beginning, you asked your father to divide the three brothers' homes, and we did not ask for money from each of their houses. As for your father's private house and mine, you can give it to anyone you want in the future." Who, it's not their turn to question."

Speaking of this, one has to say that Mei Zhuangyi is a smart person, and he was the one who proposed the separation of the Mei family back then.

Because of this incident back then, it caused quite a stir in the Mei family.

But what Mei Zhuangyi said was right, his brothers and sisters-in-law were all kind to him, that was his blessing.But as the years passed, the nephews gradually grew up, and they would inevitably marry wives and have children in the future, and the number of Mei family members would increase.The same heart at this time does not mean that it will be the same in the future, especially since each of them has married a wife, so it is better to make a clear distinction early.

Mei Zhuangyi was only 12 years old when he proposed this matter.

Afterwards, the Mei family split up, only the family property was divided, and the family still lived together.In this way, the old man Mei and the old couple can enjoy family happiness without any conflicts.

The family property was divided into four shares, one for each of the three sons, and one for the old Mei and his wife.As for their own livelihood, they have nothing to do with others.Old Mei and his wife have a pension problem, because they were young back then, and the youngest son was still young, so they didn't choose which house to live with.We will discuss this matter later when the old man is older.

It stands to reason that this is considered a rainy day, but even so, some contradictions have not been avoided.

There is no other reason, it is all caused by the private house in the hands of the old couple.

Everyone in the Mei family knew that the old Mei and his wife had a private house, but they didn't know how much, but it was quite a lot anyway.The Mei family didn't miss it, but the two daughters-in-law of the big house did.

Therefore, every family has a scripture that is difficult to recite.

The relationship between the Mei family is good, of course it is from the previous generation, as the sons of the Mei Dahu brothers grew up and married wives, the older generation is fine, the younger generation It's inevitable that some thoughts will arise.

Especially the two daughters-in-law of Dafang, they were pretty good when they first married in. Later, maybe because they felt that they had added a grandson to the Mei family, they felt that their backs were hard, so they inevitably became more careful. Likes to do little tricks behind the back.

If they want to say anything else, they don't dare to talk about it. At most, they want to make some "little emotions", or teach their sons to ask for things from their grandpa and grandma. .Although it's not a big deal, it's just unavoidably disturbing.

"When the family was separated back then, the money and property that the third child got were all handed over to your father and me. Over the years, although he has been a bit idle, he rarely asks for money from his family. Your father and I have hinted more than once The third child has never used our private house, but they don't believe it, and they always feel that we have pasted a lot of money to the third child behind the scenes."

Mei frowned tightly: "Then what about elder brother and elder sister-in-law, they don't care?"

Liu's complexion was gloomy, and she sighed helplessly: "Why don't you care! It's not like you don't know that your eldest brother is busy on weekdays and never cares about women's affairs. Putting on airs of being a mother-in-law, every time your sister-in-law wants to say something, and the two of them lift her son out, your sister-in-law will not know what to say. After all, even if you don’t value other things, you have to leave something for Hongyu and Hongzhi. face."

Mrs. Mei has always known that the two nephews and daughter-in-law are not easy to worry about, but she didn't expect the trouble to be so excessive now.She tensed her face: "Then Hongyu's daughter-in-law and Hongzhi's daughter-in-law went back to their natal home today because of this?"

Liu Shi sighed and nodded.

Mrs. Mei is a hot-tempered person, and her temper has been bad since she was a child. When she saw that her two nephews and daughters-in-law dared to make a raft to show their mother's face, she immediately became angry.

She stood up abruptly, and said angrily: "I'll go find my sister-in-law and ask her to take good care of my two daughters-in-law. In our Mei family, there is no reason for the younger generation to climb on top of the elders to act wildly!"

Mrs. Liu held her back: "Forget it, don't make it difficult for your sister-in-law, she is too."

"What's so difficult? My elder brother doesn't know that I believe it, but if I say that my sister-in-law doesn't know, I won't believe it. Maybe she also has such thoughts?" Mei said with a sneer.

Liu Shi didn't speak.

"Let me just say, who doesn't have a little thought of their own? After hiding for so long, it finally revealed itself. I didn't dare to stand up, so I encouraged the two daughters-in-law to make a fuss. If there is something wrong, why don't you dare to say it in front of the eldest brother?" !" That means bullying her mother is soft-tempered, and the men of the Mei family are not at home most of the time.

Mrs. Liu persuaded: "Don't say that, your sister-in-law is a nice person, and it is human nature to think about her children and grandchildren." What can Mrs. Liu say? There is really nothing to choose from in doing things in the past few years, that is, I am a little confused about this matter.

"It's human nature to think about the children and grandchildren, but what kind of reason is thinking about the elder's private house? Don't forget that the Mei family is not only the eldest house, but also the second and third brothers!"

This principle is not bad, but it is because of this that the two daughters-in-law of the big house are getting more and more noisy, and they want to force the old couple to propose to live with the big house themselves, lest the old couple give up their private house to the youngest son.Especially this time when Mei Zhuangyi went home to get the money, he asked his two elder brothers to borrow some money. The two daughters-in-law of the big house didn't say anything at the time, but turned their heads and changed their faces.No, I took the child back to my mother's house early this morning.

"All right, all right, don't worry about this matter, your father and I know it well." Mrs. Liu was very troubled by her daughter's fiery temper, so she could only persuade her in this way.

Mei Shi snorted, but didn't speak.

When people get older, they always like to let things go, but they don't know that some things can't be solved by letting people go.But Mrs. Mei didn't say anything else, she knew about Mother's temperament, so she didn't intend to continue arguing with her.

In the back room, Lu Jiaoyue fell into shock and couldn't recover for a long time.

What shocked her wasn't the little estrangement in the private house of her grandfather, but that she suddenly remembered an event in her previous life.

In the last life, something happened to the Mei family. The little uncle also took the money from the family to do business, but some accidents happened. Not to mention that all the money was lost, and the person was injured and limped, and even owed money. incurred a large debt.

Because of this, her mother always went to her mother's house for a while, and she was already married at that time, and it happened to be the eve of Du Lian's talent examination, so her mother didn't tell her in order not to distract her.By the time she found out, the matter had already been settled, so she was not very clear about the details, but only knew that there seemed to be a commotion in the Mei family, and there seemed to be some conflicts among the uncles.After that, the Mei family was completely separated, and the family situation plummeted, and they didn't get over it for a long time.

It was at this time that Widow Du slowly revealed her original shape, and in the name of teaching her, she left all the housework to her. She was busy with housework and went to work in the fields.

She didn't understand at the time, but after thinking about it slowly, she realized that the Du family saw that her biggest backer could not be relied on, and Du Lian was admitted as a scholar, so they completely lost their previous fear.

Because of this incident, grandma's health became worse day by day, and she passed away within two years.Because of the passing of my grandmother, my grandfather lost all energy and left soon.And the little uncle was even more decadent, he was no longer the high-spirited, handsome and hearty little uncle.

Afterwards, as the Du family moved to the county, she never saw her little uncle again. After her elder brother had an accident, she lost contact with her natal family, and there was no news from the Mei family.

How to do?
Lu Jiaoyue couldn't help becoming anxious.

Although she has lived two lifetimes, she is only a woman after all, she is ordinary and does not go out of the door, and she can't think of any good way to prevent this from happening.

To be honest, it is definitely not possible. My little uncle will definitely not believe such absurd things.But she couldn't help but watch her grandparents, grandma, and little uncle, who loved her since childhood, end up in such a fate.

At this moment, there was a burst of hearty laughter from the outer room.

It's uncle.

Mei Dahu is back.

As the sun gradually set to the west, the Mei family gradually became lively.

Old man Mei and his eldest son came back first. The four of them drove two ox carts and brought back four big fat wild boars.The wild boar is covered in black hair, with sharp fangs, and the dark red pig's blood is mixed on the pig's skin, making it look very ferocious.

This wild boar was collected by Old Man Mei and the others from the mountains. There is a village called Dahei Village under the Dahei Mountain. Dahei Village is located in a remote place.

No, a group of hunters in the village raided a wild boar nest and beat up four wild boars, big and small.They couldn't eat for a while, and old man Mei and his son were famous butchers nearby, so they came to the house to say hello to old man Mei and the others to collect pigs.

It takes nearly three hours to go back and forth from Lihualing to Dahei Village.It was very hard work, but the four wild boars could earn a few taels of silver from it anyway, so when they returned home, old man Mei and the others all had smiles on their faces.

Old man Mei and the others had just entered the house when the couple from the second bedroom and Mei Hongbang also returned.

After returning home, several people were very happy to see the Mei mother and daughter coming.After saying hello, they went back to their houses to tidy themselves up.

After some tidying up, the family sat together and talked.

After saying a few words, the two brothers Mei Hongyu didn't see their daughter-in-law, nor even their son, so they asked aloud.

After being slightly taken aback, Mrs. Liu said that the two of them had something to do with their natal family, and they went back to their natal home. They even took away their grandson and haven't come back yet.

The atmosphere was a bit stagnant, the old man Mei and Liu's face had no smiles on their faces, Mei's face was stiff, Lu Jiaoyue was a junior, she didn't dare to interrupt, she could only lower her head carefully.On the other hand, Mei's second sister-in-law, Chen Shi, had some understanding, but she didn't say anything, she just watched her.

"This woman, when my little aunt came to her house today, she ran back to her mother's house. She really doesn't know how to choose the time." Mei Hongyu scolded.

Mrs. Liu smoothed things over for the two daughters-in-law: "They left early, I didn't know your sister-in-law was coming back."

"Then I went to pick up their mother and son, just in time for dinner." The two brothers Mei Hongyu stood up.There is an ox cart at home, and the trip back and forth is very fast.

Mrs. Mei smiled and stopped her: "It's been a long time since I saw you two brothers, sit down and talk to your sister-in-law, it's not that my two nephews and daughter-in-law don't know the way home, and I still need you brothers Go pick it up?"

Mei's words were quite meaningful, and the whole room fell silent.
