Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Changsheng looked at Liu Yu who was worried.

Move the plate containing peanuts and melon seeds in front of yourself.

He said to several children, "I'll peel it for you. Eat the small melon seeds first and the big peanuts first. How about that?"

"Good! Good!"

When Liu Yu saw that Changsheng could handle these children, the two of them looked at each other with smiles. Liu Yu turned around and walked out without any further delay.

Not counting my family members, there are always ten men going together today, including the village chief. Plus the clan leader and my family members, we have to prepare two tables.

There was only one table for entertaining guests at home, so Liu Yu and Liu Yan went to Liu Maogen's house next door to borrow a table, and by the way, they brought Liu Maogen over.

As it gets later, oil lamps have been lit in the kitchen. In the main room, two clean square tables are put together and the benches are placed.

The washed chopsticks and spoons are neatly placed, and guests are arriving one after another.

Three oil lamps were burning on the table, and the main room was brightly illuminated. There were not so many oil lamps at home, and the other two were brought from Chen Jinmei's family.

Hot dishes were served one after another, and the hot stews that had just come out of the pot were brought to the table as soon as they were served.

Liu Fan brought hot water and put it on the basin stand. Everyone washed their hands and pushed each other to sit down.

The chief seats were occupied by the clan leader and Liu Fusheng.

The village chief in the east sat with four men of the same generation.

The four guests who were also sitting in the west seat, Liu Maolin and Liu Maoye, and two other junior guests sat at the bottom.

Liu Fan moved a stool and sat on the side, helping to pour tea and wine.

Liu Shan and Liu Yan were serving dishes and running errands!

Liu Maolin spoke little and was silent. During the dinner, Liu Fusheng thanked everyone repeatedly for their help today and went to Wujiacun to support Liu Meixiang.

Liu Bushan poured the wine, and while pouring the wine, he thanked everyone for their help to the eldest sister.

"As a fellow villager, this is what you should do. Don't say such polite words. If Mei Xiang needs help in the future, just let me know. If you can help me, it won't be a problem!"

The Liu family was so polite, the food was good, and the wine was good wine, but they were gone today. When they didn't contribute to the fight, the two of them quarreled, thanking each other again and again.

They listened and felt really guilty.

"Okay, I'll thank all the elders on behalf of my eldest sister!"

Liu Fan lowered his wine glass, toasted everyone in a circle, and drank in one gulp.

After three rounds of wine, five dishes and five flavors, the food was eaten in half and half, and the cold food was reheated. Everyone could not drink anymore, so they had to give in to the wine several times.

The hostess then started asking for steamed buns and rice tea.

A large basket of steamed buns was left over from the banquet. Nian originally kept it for the Chinese New Year, but now that there was a banquet, she took it out to eat.

As soon as the lid of the big pot was opened, although the steam had almost dissipated after such a long time, the steamed buns were still piping hot, Bai Xuanxuan!

I picked up baskets of steamed buns and delivered bowls of rice tea to the main room.

People at the table were eating buns and drinking tea while talking, and it took about two-quarters of an hour before they dispersed.

It was already getting late, and the village chief took the lead to say goodbye. Liu Fusheng and others stayed behind before seeing them off.

"Maolin, Mei Xiang's mother, what rules do you have regarding Mei Xiang?"

After seeing off the village chief and others, the patriarch, who had been silent during the dinner, sat in the kitchen, warming himself by the fire, squinting at Liu Maolin and his wife, and said.

"What, what regulations!" Like Xu Hong, everyone was stunned when they heard the words and did not react.

"After the Chinese New Year, I would like to ask Lian Shengniang to help me find a new family. It doesn't matter if I find a man who has a son. It doesn't matter if he is older. I can go and help manage it for a few years. When my step-son marries a wife, Mei Xiang will be there for the rest of her life." Damn it!”

Liu Maolin was silent for a while and then said.

"No, I don't agree!"

"It depends on you, you dead head!"

Xu Hong and Nian spoke at the same time, but the difference was that Nian took action and slapped Liu Maolin hard on the back.

"It's not what I was born and raised. I don't know what kind of temperament I have since I was a child. I am a stepmother. If I die before a man, I will have a good ending. If I die behind a man, I will wait and see." When you were kicked out by your stepson and wife, your brain was eaten by a dog!"

Nian was so angry that he pointed at Liu Maolin's head and cursed!

"I don't agree either. I, Mei Xiang, am only twenty-eight years old today. Why do I want to be someone's stepmother and find her an older man? You are really my biological father. I would rather raise her for the rest of my life than to I’ll make her a stepmother!”

It was as if Xu Hong had met the man in front of her for the first time. The girl and Li returned home. Instead of trying to appease her, she was anxious to send her away.

"You are the one who harmed her by keeping her at home. How long can we live? From now on, this family will belong to Liu Yan and Tianyu, and from now on it will belong to the grandson. You have the heart to let your daughter live under the roof of the grandson!"

Liu Maolin was also annoyed, quarreling with Xu Hong with his eyes wide open!

"I'm still in charge of this family now. Tianyu is not intolerant. Don't try to sow discord between us girls. We'll talk about the future later. If you want to catch me now, send me Mei Xiang out in a hurry. That's it. No!"

Zhao Tianyu was warming herself up behind the stove with a bowl of rice tea. Now when she heard her parents-in-law mentioning her, she felt a little unhappy.

Putting down the bowl in his hand, he said calmly: "What Mom said is that the eldest sister has a good temper, and I like Xiaoxue very much. What we want to live together is peace and stability. Luya and Brother Qi also like my cousin, and there are many in the family. The children are also busy, and I have no place to speak here. Both my parents mention me, so I just don’t like talking too much.

Zhao Tianyu took a look at Liu Meixiang, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, her expression hidden in the darkness. She didn't know what she was thinking at this time, and her heart was full of complicated feelings.

Finally, he sighed and said: "Eldest sister has just returned home. It is not appropriate to talk about this now. When life is more stable, let eldest sister make her own decision on how to choose!"

Nian and Xu Hong's expressions softened slightly after hearing this.

"Tianyu, grandma was right about you in the past. You were a good boy who was able to handle things and take the overall situation into consideration!"

Nian smiled kindly at Zhao Tianyu, took a final look at the stern-faced eldest son, and said something negative and yang: "Although she is a sister-in-law, she is a hundred times better than some fathers!"

"Mom, I'm doing this for Mei Xiang's own good. If you don't want to, I just won't mention it from now on!"

Liu Maolin was a little embarrassed.

"You are not allowed to interfere with Mei Xiang's affairs in the future. If you give Mei Xiang to someone casually, I will not comply. Don't blame me for being embarrassed by you!"

Nian knew this son very well, but she still felt uneasy after hearing what he said.

Finally, he added: "Meixiang will stay with us and her brother in the old house during the new year. In the spring of next year, you will move the house for Mei Xiang and Xiaoxue."

"No."

Liu Meixiang walked to the kitchen, her pale face full of determination, and walked straight to the clan leader.

He said in a deep voice: "Master, next spring I want to build two adobe houses and open up two pieces of wasteland. I have the hands and feet to support Xiaoxue and I. I just don't know if there is any idle homestead in the clan. I want to Pay money to buy it.”
