The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Chapter 316: Sister-in-law's Family Situation

Liu Minghui nodded after hearing this. This was indeed Yang Xiulan's character, because Liu's mother treated her very well, and Liu Zhiqiang wanted to stay and take care of the two elders. Otherwise, Liu Minghui would have to arrange a job for his eldest brother.

"It's because my eldest sister-in-law's family is not good. I heard that her younger brother is lazy and greedy. He is spoiled by the whole family and is now useless."

Liu Dazhuang sneered at Yang Xiulan's family. Even though the two families lived far away from each other, he still knew about these things.

After all, Yang Xiulan's younger brother is also famous in the nearby villages.

"Okay, let's not discuss this. You don't care whether his family is doing well or badly, as long as they don't blame us."

Liu's mother didn't want to talk about the Yang family anymore, so she spoke up to stop Liu Dazhuang from continuing.

Not long after, several people who went to work came back, and Liu's father brought his eldest brother and sister-in-law into the house.

"Third brother, second brother, long time no see. I was just talking about you guys."

As soon as Liu Zhiqiang entered the room, he started shouting loudly when he saw the two people.

He sat down next to Liu Minghui, picked up the water glass and drank a full cup.

"Oh, it's so hot, this weather."

After working for a whole morning, Liu Zhiqiang and his colleagues all looked exhausted.

"Brother, what are you talking about?"

Liu Minghui asked curiously.

"It's Liu Aiguo. I heard you plan to bring him to the city this time?"

As soon as Liu Zhiqiang finished speaking, Yang Xiulan asked Liu Minghui in a bad tone.

"I think he must be talking nonsense, isn't he his third uncle?"

Yang Xiulan looked at Liu Minghui with complicated eyes. Yang Xiulan was just a rural woman and of course she wanted to move to the city. She had urged Liu Zhiqiang earlier to ask Liu Minghui for help, but Liu Zhiqiang refused on the grounds that his two elders were old and he was the eldest son and it would be difficult for him to leave.

Now that Liu Aiguo from her uncle's family can also move to the city, Yang Xiulan is of course unhappy. In her opinion, this opportunity should have belonged to her man.

So this is why Yang Xiulan had a bad temper when we first met.

Liu Minghui pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, uncle has said it several times, and this is a good opportunity."

Liu Minghui's concise answer officially confirmed the news.

Yang Xiulan was very unhappy after hearing this. In her opinion, Liu Aiguo was taking advantage of her family. She was about to speak up, but Liu Zhiqiang stopped her with a look.

Liu Zhiqiang slammed the table and shouted at Yang Xiulan, "What do women know? It's none of your business who my third brother finds a job for. Go help mom cook."

"Never mind, I'm going to help mom cook."

After being scolded, Yang Xiulan threw down a few words and left with a very unhappy look on her face.

"Little brother, your sister-in-law is just a little petty, she doesn't have any bad intentions."

After Yang Xiulan left, Liu Zhiqiang turned around and apologized to Liu Minghui. Although he scolded Yang Xiulan a few words, he still made excuses for her in his words.

Liu Minghui smiled when he heard this, and there was no sign of anger on his face.

"Brother, I don't know yet. I don't take it to heart."

Hearing this, Liu Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Liu's father spoke. He had not interrupted the quarrel between the few people just now, because he was a man of flesh and blood, and it would not be good to help anyone, so Liu's father was very smart to stay out of it.

"Your uncle is working hard too, it would be nice if you could lend a hand, after all, we are all family."

Liu Minghui's father still agreed with his decision.

"Yes, Aiguo is also my brother. He is in his twenties now. He doesn't want to waste his whole life in the countryside. It would be nice if he could get a stable job."

Liu Zhiqiang also looked in agreement. He didn't want Yang Xiulan to be so picky. After all, he and Liu Aiguo grew up together, so how could he object? He was so happy that he couldn't contain himself.

After talking for a few sentences, Liu Minghui skipped this topic, looked at the sunny weather outside, and asked about things in the fields.

"Brother, how is the farm this year? Will the harvest be better?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiqiang immediately looked extremely relieved.

"Not very good, God didn't rain much, but luckily there is a river not far from our village, so it's no problem to irrigate the crops."

Liu Minghui felt relieved after hearing this. In fact, even last year, the harvest of Liujia Village was not too bad. This was because the village was next to a river and there was no obstruction in the upper reaches, leading directly to the mountains not far away. Even in the past two years, the river had not been interrupted.

“That’s a real blessing.”

Liu Minghui had lunch at home. It was a simple lunch of steamed buns, stir-fried wild vegetables, and a dish of eggs from the family's own hens. At the dining table, Liu's father looked a little hunched over.

Liu Minghui sighed: "Dad, you are old, I think you should take a rest. Our family is not short of those work points, it's time to enjoy your life."

Upon hearing this, not only Liu Minghui thought so, Liu Dazhuang also spoke up to persuade him.

"Yes, what Third Brother said is correct. It's a good opportunity for us to go to the city and live for a while when we have nothing to do with our mother."

The same was true for Liu Zhiqiang and his wife. Not to mention Liu Zhiqiang, even Yang Xiulan didn't think there was anything wrong with this and immediately tried to persuade the two elders.

Liu Minghui had wanted to bring the two of them to the city before, but Liu's father and his wife refused to let him go, saying that they were not used to living in the city and that they would be more comfortable in the village.

Otherwise, Liu Minghui would have brought the two elders to Sijiucheng long ago.

Father Liu paused while eating, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and then sighed.

"Forget it. I'm already old and don't want to live in the city. I'm very satisfied with my current life."

"If you want to make me happy, then bring the kids back more often. That's better than anything else."

"If you don't believe me, ask your mother if she's willing to go."

Father Liu said nonchalantly that it was great to be in the village now. Everyone knew that he had two good sons who could go to the city on their own. Now everyone envied him.

Upon hearing this, Liu's mother immediately said, "Sure, I still want to go and take care of San'er's children."

If we were to say which grandson Liu's mother likes the most, it would of course be Liu Bowen, because Liu Minghui, as the youngest in the family, is deeply loved by Liu's mother. Because of her love for her grandson, Liu's mother also loves this eldest grandson the most.

"No, the family can't live without you."

Who would have thought that after hearing this, Liu's father directly disagreed.

Seeing this, Liu's mother was not angry. Instead, she said to the three people, "Look, your father is a liar and his words are not trustworthy."

Mother Liu sighed, touched Liu Yumei's head and said, "Forget it. I really can't leave my family. Let your eldest brother take care of the child."

Liu Minghui knew this would happen, so he immediately shook his head and said to his eldest brother beside him.

"Brother, I'll trouble you to take care of my parents. If you have any difficulties, remember to come to me."

If there were still some telephones in the village, Liu Minghui would have wanted to leave his office phone number so that it would be easier to communicate.

After hearing this, Liu Zhiqiang immediately said that it was no problem.
