Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons
Chapter 156 Prodigal Son
It turned out that she had a lover in the city, and these valuables were gifts from that person!
As soon as the matter was revealed, Lao Xu's face turned red and he was furious. Without saying a word, he rushed to the city to settle the score with the man.
However, that man was the steward of a wealthy family, and he had many people around him. Not only did Old Xu fail to get an explanation, but he was severely punished instead.
When he was carried back, the wound on his forehead was horrifying and it was said that he had bled a lot. It was Xu Guilong who asked his mother for money and hired a doctor to treat him.
The young wife couldn't help but sigh when she said this: "You may not know that after this incident, Aunt Xu seemed to have become a different person. She dressed up gorgeously every day, completely disregarding Old Xu's life or death, running to the city early in the morning and not returning home until late at night. Sometimes she even disappeared for several days in a row!"
The young wife heard the news when she returned to her parents' home. At first she did not believe it, until she saw it with her own eyes, she realized that the Xu family had been torn apart.
In fact, the Xu family’s turmoil goes far beyond this.
After making friends with Fang Dayong, Xu Guishan was introduced into a risky antique reselling circle.
This industry is unpredictable, and Xu Guishan lacks the ability to appreciate and cannot distinguish the authenticity and quality of antiques, but he is obsessed with making a fortune from this.
As a result, he not only squandered the money he stole from his mother, but also owed a large amount of usury.
It is easy to borrow money but difficult to repay it. The interest keeps snowballing, and soon Xu Guishan is burdened with debts that he cannot pay off.
Under the relentless pressure from his creditors, he had no other options left and eventually made his mother's secret public, which also exposed his mother's affair.
However, Xu Guishan did not reflect on his mistakes at all, but instead blamed his parents for making a big deal out of it.
Now, he has taken away all the money in the house and gone to find his "good brother" Fang Dayong.
After being beaten, Old Xu's health went from bad to worse. He was unable to get rid of the depression in his heart, and his injuries had not healed. He died on the hospital bed soon after.
After Xu Liyun learned the bad news, she brought in the Zhang family to pay for his funeral.
The funeral was held in a very dignified manner. She spared no expense to ensure that Old Xu passed away in glory. Although she did not personally take care of the funeral, the villagers of Wuli Village praised her as a filial daughter, saying that she had fulfilled her final filial duty to her deceased father.
Faced with these praises, Xu Liyun gladly accepted them. After all, she had spent a lot of money on them.
Old Xu never enjoyed such glory during his lifetime, but he was able to enjoy such a grand ceremony after his death. Wasn't it all thanks to the generous donation from this "filial daughter"?
Xu Guishan was taken somewhere for a stroll by his so-called "best buddy" Fang Dayong, and he didn't even show up at his father's funeral.
As for Xu's mother, she has never returned home since Old Xu's condition worsened. There are rumors outside that she has been living with her lover for a long time, and they live like a couple even though they have no official status.
As soon as the funeral was over, the village chief of Wuli Village simply helped the late Old Xu to go through the divorce procedures, and Xu Liyun kept the divorce letter safely.
With this divorce letter, if Xu's mother wants to come back and make trouble in the future, Xu Liyun will have a legitimate reason to ask her to leave.
Speaking of this silly boy Xu Guilong, he knows nothing about the affairs at home. He just feels that as the days go by, his home doesn't feel like a home anymore.
Seeing that he had not done anything harmful before, Xu Liyun found him a job in the city and let him earn his own living, not expecting anything else.
Xu Guilong understood the situation, so after finding a job, he never went to the Zhang family to bother them again and lived his single life.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, Zhang Laoer ran to the county town every now and then, and managed to renovate the dilapidated yard until it looked brand new.
The door was left open for several days to allow for ventilation. After confirming that it was safe for habitation, the Zhang family picked a sunny day and moved into their new home.
Today is a good day for Zhang Laoer to officially move into the house he bought in the county town!
As soon as the news spread, the neighbors all came to watch the fun. After all, houses in the county town were not affordable for ordinary people. It was difficult for villagers to rent a house, let alone buy one. Zhang Laoer became a homeowner easily.
Fortunately, the villagers are not jealous, but grateful. Thinking about the Zhang family's contributions to the village over the years, and then looking at their own pockets, it is not surprising that the Zhang family can buy a house in the city.
Xiao You's mother started packing with her parents at dawn. Fortunately, Zhang Laoer had made preparations. They had bought a lot of furniture for their new home in Wenren Lane. They only needed to pack some daily necessities and clothes and lock the rest in the cabinet.
Since she is young, she doesn't have to move heavy things, so she is only responsible for moving small items.
Xiao Youniang worked very hard. She held various small things in her arms and ran back and forth between the yard and the donkey cart, never getting tired of it.
Xiaobai tried to come over to play several times, but was gently pushed away by Xiaoyou Niang, who told him seriously to stay in the nest and not interfere with his sister's work.
After living in the Zhang family for a long time, Xiaobai has become quite understanding of human nature. Although he didn't understand the specific meaning, he could understand it from her actions.
It grunted a few times in dissatisfaction, howled as if in protest, but finally returned to its nest reluctantly and stopped making trouble.
The Zhang family's things almost filled the donkey cart. Thanks to the money earned by the second uncle, not only was the donkey well fed every meal, but the donkey cart was also reinforced. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to pull so many people and things.
"Are you all seated?"
Second uncle asked out of habit.
Behind me came everyone's loud response: "Sit down!"
"Let's go!"
Second uncle cracked the whip and the donkey cart moved forward with a clatter.
The Zhang family did not tell everyone the exact time of departure, and deliberately chose early morning when most people in the village were still asleep and the few who had gotten up early were busy preparing breakfast.
The second uncle drove a donkey cart, carrying the entire Zhang family, and quietly left Zhangjia Village, heading towards their new home in the county town.
All the neighbors in Wenren Lane knew that someone had finally taken over the largest empty yard in the alley.
The yard had been empty for many years. Although people often inquired about it, it had never been sold. Unexpectedly, it had a new owner this year.
Ever since the renovation of No. 66 compound began, the nosy neighbors in the alley have paid more attention to this family.
Living in the same alley, we see each other every day. Everyone hopes to have a harmonious neighbor to avoid neighborhood conflicts and quarrels all day long.
Later, I heard from the craftsmen who came to work that the newcomers were actually farmers.
Those who thought they were superior to others immediately lost interest when they heard that they were farmers. Their previous curiosity about the Zhang family also disappeared. They put on an attitude of disdain and went back to their homes.
Despite this, many people are still curious about Courtyard No. 66 and want to see what a farmer who can buy such a large piece of land looks like.
When the second uncle's donkey cart stopped steadily at the gate of No. 66 Courtyard, the neighbors in the alley heard the noise, and they all leaned out, looking at the Zhang family quietly.
