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

There are many people in the village.

There is a slight disturbance in someone's house. Everyone knows that it can be transmitted in less than half a day.

The matter of Liu Meixiang and Li returning home was a hot topic in the village for several days, and became a topic of conversation among the villagers after dinner.

Fortunately, the villagers are kind-hearted, and most of them talk about it because they feel sorry for Liu Meixiang. Although they can't go to Wujia Village to beat up the Wu family, they can verbally curse her, which is another way of fighting for Liu Meixiang's injustice.

Occasionally, he is like a big talker and looks for reasons from Liu Meixiang. When the villagers hear this, they either ignore him or spit, and then ask, "Wu Ping is your boss, why are you facing him like this?"

Too many times, these people made public outrage, made a fuss, and lost face. Because Tian Changxi was about to get married again, everyone gradually shifted their attention.

The patriarch worked very quickly. After receiving the 300 yuan from Liu Meixiang, he completed the land deed in two days. On the third day, he sent his eldest grandson Liu Qing home.

When Liu Meixiang heard Liu Qing say that it cost fifty cents to go to the town to get the land deed documents, she quickly took out a bunch of copper coins and handed them to Liu Qing, saying it was because of the hard work of the master, and the extra money was used to treat the master to a drink.

Liu Qing is a kind man, a few years younger than Liu Meixiang, and has a good relationship with Liu Fan, Liu Yan and others. Knowing that Liu Meixiang will live as a mother and daughter from now on.

I don't have much money on hand. I need money everywhere to settle down. Even if I have some money on hand, it means every penny is spent and every penny is lost.

Liu Qing insisted and refused to accept it. He only took fifty coins and pushed back the rest.

"My grandpa knows he's afraid he'll scold me for being stupid, and I'll have to send it back then."

Liu Qing smiled at Xiaoxue who was standing aside: "Sister Mei Xiang, don't be so polite. You can't write two characters in one stroke. When you and Xiaoxue live smoothly in the future, and you invite me to have a drink with you, I will be happy!"

Liu Meixiang felt a little warm in her heart. Any words of gratitude she said at this time were too weak. She could only talk about repayment if she lived a better life.

"The frost and dew at night have almost dried up now. Let's go to the inner wall and have a look."

While Liu Qing was there, Liu Yu suggested.

"Okay, I'll take you to identify the land boundary!" In addition to delivering the land deed, Liu Qing also has another task, which is to take Liu Meixiang to identify the land boundary.

Liu Yan happened to come over, and a few people brought shovels, sickles and other tools and followed Liu Qing to Liweizi.

Liweizi is called this because it is surrounded by water on all sides, with only a dirt road leading outside.

There are many bamboos in Zhuyuan Village, and even Liweizi, which looks like an isolated island, is no exception. Dots of bamboo poles grow along the waterside. Although they are not large-scale, in winter, the bamboo poles are still green and green.

After crossing the dirt road, we first saw a four-room mud courtyard house, with a small vegetable garden surrounded by fences outside the compacted loess courtyard wall, where vegetables grew quite well.

"This is Huang Laoer's house, and further west is Xu Hong's house!"

Liu Qing pointed to two residential roads on the west side of the dirt road.

Huang Laoer has two children. Although they are both married, the house is obviously wider, with four rooms.

There was only an old couple beside Xu Hong. Xu Hong had a good hunting skill when he was young and had some savings. He built three houses. The foundations and the walls more than three feet high on the ground were all made of blue bricks.

It is built with a mixture of blue bricks below and mud bricks above.

The same yard was made of loess, and vegetables were planted in front of the yard. There seemed to be cut chrysanthemum roots along the fence posts.

Going to the west, there is still an open space of eight or nine rooms.

Liu Yu nodded softly in her heart. Although he rarely came to Weizi, he still knew which family lived in which one.

The courtyard doors of Huang Lao'er's house and Xu Hong's house were closed. I don't know whether the two families went out or were at home.

The homestead that Liu Meixiang was selling was at the eastern end. Liu Qing was walking in front, pointing at the only two houses in the east.

"This is the home of Li Dongsheng and his grandma!"

Everyone looked over and saw that the main house was an ordinary three-room mud house, with the same courtyard walls made of tamped yellow mud.

Garlic seedlings and green onions were planted at the entrance of the courtyard. Inside the garlic seedlings were sparsely grown large coriander trees, which looked pleasing to the eye.

When passing by Li Dongsheng's house, Liu Yu took a look inside and said softly: "I heard that the Li family's grandma is very sick, but now I don't know what's going on."

Liu Meixiang stared blankly at the few budding plum branches sticking out of the courtyard wall. When she heard Liu Yu's words, her eyes were filled with worry.

After smelling it carefully, there seemed to be the smell of herbs floating in the air. Like several people who heard it, they sighed and did not stop.

"This is the home of Widow Zhou and Tietou, and further ahead is Sister Mei Xiang's homestead!"

Liu Qing's voice was brisk, and she continued to move forward.

As Liu Meixiang's neighbors for the next few decades, Liu Yu and others took a close look at the widow's house.

Maybe someone was passing by at the door of the courtyard, and the sound of a dog barking was heard in the courtyard.

Widow Zhou married Li Dongsheng's brother, Li Qiusheng. Li Qiusheng died of illness at a young age. Widow Zhou raised Tietou by herself these years.

There are no parents-in-law, and the only elder is the old lady who is sick. Not to mention helping her, sometimes Li Dongsheng has to take care of Ding when he is busy.

My brother-in-law is unmarried, and if he says more than a few words, the village will gossip about him. He is a widow raising a son. You can imagine the sadness and sorrow he has felt over the years.

When people in the village talk about Widow Zhou, they usually say that she is shrewd and mean, but Liu Yu doesn't think so. She doesn't let people live near the fields, and Widow Zhou doesn't invade other people's fields, and she doesn't eat from anyone's house. , how can Tietou be raised?

Widow Zhou's yard is also full of vegetables. The small vegetable garden is neatly tidied, with not a single weed, and some empty spaces along the bamboo fence are not wasted.

They all ordered broad beans, which are now up to their ankles. When spring gets warmer and the broad bean seedlings grow taller, sweet broad beans will be available in early summer.

She is a hard-working woman, and as a neighbor with such a person, she should be able to talk less.

The few people took their time and quickly passed through the door of Widow Zhou. Beyond that was Liu Meixiang's territory. The few people grabbed the tools in their hands. It was still early and they could clean up the ground some more.

"Ah! So many dishes!"

Xiaoxue knew that her and her mother's future house would be built here, and she was very happy. She was curious about everything she saw, and jumped to the front.

“What a lot of dishes!”

Liu Yu and others only thought that there were some wild vegetables and weeds on the ground that could survive the winter. Xiaoxue didn't know them and talked nonsense.

When the large vegetable field came into view, several people were a little surprised that a vegetable garden had been opened on this homestead.

"Ah! Why are there so many dishes!"

Everyone took a closer look and saw that the most planted ones were garlic seedlings, leeks, spinach, and cabbage that had already been wrapped, growing quite well.

Everyone looked at each other, wondering who planted this.

"Who is it, making the noise?"
