Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 88

Old Qin frowned, "What's the matter? Sudden discomfort?"

Mrs. Zhang still stares at Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu still doesn't look at her.

Xiurong outside held an iron comb in her hand and didn't comb the grass. She listened carefully with her ears pricked up, wishing to grow her ears longer so that she could hear more clearly.Why doesn't Mother agree? It's great to be a family. Seeing that the second aunt dares to swear, the family doesn't have to run out of money all day long.

Everyone was waiting for her to reply, and Lao Qin glanced at her, "Da Yeniang, you can take it, anyway, you won't go out now, and lead your sisters-in-law and children at home, and take good care of the house."

Mrs. Liu opened her mouth at this time, her voice was still calm and indifferent, "Father, we are not from a high school, we have to be in charge of the house. It's just that we eat, sleep and work, and everyone is very conscious. Besides If you let me be a mother, I can't be a mother." She smiled and glanced at Mrs. Zhang, "Mother, your illness is nothing serious, but you are tired. From now on, don't do anything, just tell us. Just lead us sisters-in-law and work hard."

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Zhang really didn't hold her breath anymore, coughed and said, "What Daye Niang said makes sense, I can't just sit and wait to die and do nothing."

Old Qintou was so angry with her that he was almost out of breath. This old idiot who had set up the stage he had set up was always tearing down the stage. After following him for so many years, he still couldn't understand the meaning. He thought she already understood his meaning.

Seeing what Mrs. Zhang said, the third aunt also tugged the second aunt and hurriedly said: "Father, yes, mother is not very old, she is still young now, and she could hold most of the bag of wheat a while ago."

Mrs. Liu said: "Father, don't make things difficult for your daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law knows her own abilities. She is not expected to be the head of the family. I am too weak-tempered. My parents often say that I can't be the head of the family."

Old Qin took a look at her, sighed, and smiled a bit bitterly, "Well, I also know that such a dilapidated house is nothing to be worthy of." He knew that the eldest daughter-in-law was not stupid, but smart, maybe because he knew his own meaning, so I don't want to be.If there is really no way, can he make this idea, is it for the good of the family?
As a result, this family, even if it is so poor, really complied with that sentence, three women play a show, the second and third don't want to be the boss, even the old woman doesn't want to hand over power.It's just such a ruined house, what else is there to argue about?Could it be that they think that the wealthy family can benefit from being the head of the family?
Seeing that Old Qin was silent and his face was cloudy and uncertain, everyone knew that he was unhappy, and no one dared to speak up.

Mrs. Zhang had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "There is still a lot of work. If there is nothing else, go to work. I feel lighter and have to get up and move around."

Old Qin didn't speak, he waved his hands, and said weakly: "Let's all go, let's go, go to work."

Everyone left one after another, but Lao Qintou still sat motionless on the kang, and he didn't even think about smoking his pipe.When his sons and daughters-in-law went to work one after another, Old Qin gave a long sigh, and said to Mrs. Zhang who was about to get up happily: "Are you really stupid or just that stupid and persistent mother-in-law? You are a mother-in-law, even if you are not in charge of the family. , who in the family dares to show you face?"

Mrs. Zhang bowed her head and remained silent when the old man talked about the central matter. Old Qin was so angry that he didn't know what to say. He suppressed his voice and said in a low voice: "You really don't know the market situation at home? You won't be able to open the pot." Do you know? You are the head of the family, can you get a catty of grain from your natal family to help?"

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that her brows were erected. Just as she was about to retort, Old Qin said in a low voice: "I let the old master be the master, why don't you understand? The conditions of the old Liu family are better than ours, and the old master is the master. See Seeing that the family can't get rid of the pot, can she think of a way? Brother Liu can still look at his daughter and help her?"

Mrs. Zhang didn't expect the silent old man to take this idea. Although she thought it was good, she refused to give in. Besides, even if she wanted the old Liu's help, why did she have to be the head of the house?

She said angrily: "You didn't say, I'm not the roundworm in your stomach, how do I know?"

Old Qin was so angry that he scratched his head, pointed at her and cursed in a low voice: "What an idiot. You, you really killed me with anger. Do you want to be a family?"

Mrs. Zhang said aggrievedly: "Why am I also a mother-in-law? Have you seen a mother-in-law who calls her daughter-in-law to be the head of the family at such a young age? Besides, even if the old master is not allowed to be the head of the house, the Liu family can still watch and not help? Our family can't open the pot, the old master So they don’t have to go hungry? Can they just watch their daughter suffer? Isn’t this just sending a stone of food.”

Old Qintou sneered, "You think everyone is as stupid as you, and the Liu family bought a few acres of land, and there is still a lot of sweet potatoes. At most, they only come here twice a year. If the old master's Why can't I have more than this? If it weren't for the bad harvest this year, people would starve to death, how can I be so cheeky? Do you think I'm not ashamed? I just love to take advantage of others so much? I miss my family too. Well-fed and well-clothed, the rich food can’t be filled, and then I take it to help relatives and see their grateful faces, do you think I don’t want to?”

Mrs. Zhang was speechless by what he said, but she still felt that she was right, "It's my boss who did something wrong, so what's the matter with me? If you have the energy, you can do it to me."

Old Qin knocked on the cigarette pot with his head, and said with a wry smile, "You think the old man didn't want to be the one, but he saw through my thoughts, and he didn't fall for it. I originally wanted to embarrass her by officially announcing it in front of the whole family. If you refuse, you have to be this family, who knows you... you, you."

Mrs. Zhang muttered, "You didn't even discuss it with me."

Old Qin leaned back angrily, "Forget it, save me from being ashamed and thrown at my grandma's house, if it wasn't for you, I would be so shameless to take advantage of my in-laws."

Mrs. Zhang thought for a while, "Then what should I do?"

Old Qin said: "You whisper to the boss at night, and let her take over this job."

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, "I don't think she can. If she refuses in front of the whole family, can she still listen to me?" Thinking of the tough posture of Mrs. Liu and her, she felt that if Mrs. Liu knew that they were safe With this in mind, even if the whole family starved to death, Mrs. Liu would not go to her mother's house to ask for food.

The two were whispering in the room, Xiurong wanted to hear but couldn't hear clearly, so she had to give up, so as not to be stunned by grandparents.

Everyone came back at night, and after dinner, Mrs. Zhang had to find Mrs. Liu to have a quiet chat, but it was no surprise that Mrs. Liu refused.

Liu Shi showed a rather ironic smile, "Mother, didn't you force me to swear earlier, I can't break my promise."

Mrs. Zhang was annoyed, but she still smiled and said, "Sometimes now, now I'm old and sick, so it's good if you become a family."

Mrs. Liu still refused, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help snorting when she saw that she wouldn't let her in, "I think you are afraid that our family will take advantage of your mother's family if you become a family."

Mrs. Liu was surprised and said: "Mother, where did you say that? My daughter-in-law is from the Qin family after marriage, so why would she want to take advantage of the Liu family? It's like mother, our family has never taken advantage of my grandma's family, right? .”

One sentence made Mrs. Zhang choke heavily, but there was nothing she could do. She wanted to make trouble and reprimand her daughter-in-law, but she felt that she was being unreasonable and lacked confidence, so she could only say angrily: "Your natal family bought land again, and you won't go back. Congratulations? Our family can’t even rent the land.”

Liu said: "Mother, it doesn't matter if my natal family bought land or something. My parents brought my brother and sister-in-law to earn it. I didn't put in much effort. If I asked for it at home, I couldn't open my mouth." , my sister-in-law can't do it either. Comparing my heart to my heart, what does mother think?"

Mrs. Zhang is both mother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and mother-in-law. She has all kinds of roles, so just think about it for yourself, so Mrs. Liu doesn't want to say more.

Mrs. Zhang is speechless. What can she say? The elders of the three daughters’ family are in better condition, but there is a nagging mother-in-law. Every time the daughters go back to her mother’s house, she struggles, let alone bring something; Mother-in-law, but there is a father-in-law who is good at drinking. The couple are very shrewd. They are afraid that the daughter-in-law will take things from their mother's house all day long. Although they live close to each other, they come back very rarely; The conditions were also poor. For the sake of her daughter, she chose a family that had no in-laws but was poor.

help?Hmph, it would be nice if you can support yourself and don't come back and cry to her mother that you want this.

Seeing her in deep thought, Mrs. Liu said, "Mother, I'll take out those tappets and tidy them up. I'll nail two more pads tomorrow. If I have a chance to exchange some more, even if I don't sell them, I can use them myself." , The original ones have been used for many years, and two of them are really unusable.”

Mrs. Zhang hummed, "It's up to you." She got up and went to the West Room. Old Qintou was smoking a cigarette, so he glanced at her, "How is it?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, "No hit."

Old Qin sighed, "Forget it."

He knew that the eldest daughter-in-law was not that stupid, and he couldn't force her anymore, but the food at home couldn't support so many people, so he still had to find a way.

In a blink of an eye, the wheat was harvested. Although the grain harvest was poor, it was busier than in previous years. The elderly and children had no time to spare.But anyway, the vegetable garden has a good harvest, and frying with some oil is also a good meal.

The grain harvest was poor, but when the wheat was harvested, it rained again. Everyone said that the wheat was ripe for a long time, and Longkou seized the grain. It was said that the wheat would be ripe at noon. There will be heavy rain at that time, and the wheat in the field will probably be ruined.Fortunately, this year Cao Tomako prepared enough, and none of the field got drenched.But the unharvested fields were heavily drenched.
