ound tables, and long benches custom-made.These items were usually kept in an empty room at the schoolhouse. Anyone, whether from the Li family or any other household in the village who needed to hos..."Here you go, Funi. This is your lucky money." 。Can you handle it yourself It's okay if you can't, grandma is here. 。Grandma has been saving this for you, to be part of your dowry when you get married. 。" Jia Yin pressed her pillow tightly against her face, her eyes gleaming. " 。Li Laotai laughed out loud and covered her granddaughter with a small blanket. 。When the granddaughter fell asleep, she tiptoed over and found that there was nothing under her pillow. 。She patted her chest and got off the ground lightly. 。In the middle of the night, a large pot of water boiled at home, and white dumplings were poured into it. 。Outside, every household set off firecrackers, the crisp sounds ushering in the new year. 。And Jia Yin, who had made a small fortune, was also a two-year-old. 。Although, she was actually only born into the world for less than six months. 。But her cookbook, thanks to these two years of fame, leaped forward in quality. 。 Egg custard, congee, and fruit puree can finally be eaten. 。She was so happy that she would kick her little legs every day and at each meal, she would insist on having her own place at the table. 。First day of the Lunar New Year, visit relatives; second day, return to one's mother's home; fifth day, send off gods. 。Festivals always pass by so quickly, and ordinary days are the hardest to get through. 。It seems like just a blink of an eye, and the year is over. 。In every household's dining table, there is a rare sight of meaty smell. Even children can be spanked when they make mistakes. 。That day, the Li family sat together chatting. 。Although it has snowed a lot before, the house is well-built and not afraid of snow pressure or drafts at all. 。This winter, the whole family is living very comfortably. 。Old Li repaid kindness with nagging and chattered for a while. 。During the Lantern Festival, I will definitely give your uncle two of the brightest lanterns to send to his grave. 。Besides, it's too far from Lady Sun's house and I haven't had the chance to send a New Year's gift. 。Without Lady Sun's help with the money, how could our family afford such a nice courtyard 。Everyone nodded. Li Lao Si then said, "In the future, when we escort goods nearby, we will definitely visit Mrs. Sun." 。Hearing this, Old Mrs. Li suddenly remembered something. 。Spring is here, our family needs to start planting, you should stay home as much as possible. 。The security agency is a good place to get Jia Yi moving around. 。Li Lao Si listened and was indeed worried about the busy spring plowing at home, so he readily agreed. 。Jia Yi thought to himself, as he recalled that he was going to leave with the escort bureau, feeling both excited and nervous. 。Jia Ren patted his younger brother's shoulder a few times, feeling a bit sour in his heart. 。He was the eldest son, supported by his family at the academy, while his younger brother had to go out and work. 。Mother, what shall we plant in our ten acres this spring Li Laosan was repairing a horse stall and casually asked. 。Li Lao'er then said, “Most of the villagers grow sorghum. Shouldn’t our family plant some too” Li Laotai had already made up her mind, “Ten mu of land, six mu for sorghum, three mu for grains, and finally one mu left for planting sweet potatoes.” 。Everyone agreed. Gaoliang should be taxed, and the rest, along with rice and sweet potatoes, would be enough to feed a family for a year. 。There are some remaining items at home, buy some glutinous rice and fine noodles to improve the quality of life. 。From then on, Jiayin lay in her grandmother's arms, listening to idle chatter while diligently working within the space. 。Before and after the New Year, she didn't slack off either. Now in the small courtyard, the corn and potatoes are already harvested. 。She was busy grinding some corn into meal; the pigs needed feed, and even the lambs and ducklings needed an occasional supplement. 。But the finer these livelihoods, the more mental energy they require. 。To such an extent that she was always busy and would fall asleep again...Li Laotai lowered her head to see her granddaughter fast asleep, and was about to carry her into the house. 。As a result, before he could even stand up, Wu Cuifang came back from outside, covering herself up. 。Li Laotai frowned, displeasure in her heart. 。During the Lunar New Year, it is taboo to be noisy or shed tears. Even the most mischievous children can escape their mothers' scolding and broom for these few days. 。These days, Wu Cuiflower has fallen back into her lazy habits. The people in the house are bearing with it and no one has said a word about it. 。But if the year has passed and Wu Cuifang is still like this, she's being a bit clueless. 。Li Lao Er naturally also saw it, so he called his family righteous. 。Your brother is going back to school in two days, why don't you help him pack his things 。“ This is about getting rid of the son and preparing to deal with Wu Cuifang. 。Jia Yi was a bit confused, but Jia Ren pulled him into the west wing. 。Only then did Li La'er return to the east wing. As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw Wu Cuifang rummaging through boxes and drawers. 。Li Lao'er suddenly came in, she was frightened and wanted to cover up, but she became even more disheveled. 。"Wu Ergou is back again" 。Li Lao'er's face turned cold, and he said with absolute certainty. 。Wu Cuiflower frantically waved her hands, wanting to lie, but when she met Li Laoer's eyes, she gave up. 。Let's just break the pot and smash it, whatever happens. 。She directly pulled at her hair and rolled around on the kang. 。"I'm finished! You killed me! I'm the only brother you have, and while you guys eat meat, drink alcohol, and celebrate the New Year in abundance, he's out there with no home or job, freezing to death!" 。"How can I possibly keep watching this!" Her hair was disheveled, her face smeared with snot and tears. 。"I'm dead anyway! Let my father see me in the underworld, and he can see how heartless his chosen son-in-law is!" 。"

Li Laoer frowned, his head ached from her crying. He didn't know whether to fight or scold her. " 。It's gotten really bad, my mother and the sons can all hear it, they're all getting angry too. 。He simply took out the two taels of silver his mother had given him for the New Year. 。“Give this to Wu Erdog, tell him, if he dares to interfere again, we’ll break his legs!” Wu Cuiflower turned the place upside down for a long while, finding nothing. Unexpectedly, Li Laoer had tucked the silver in his pocket. 。She cursed inwardly, but didn't hesitate to pick up the silver. 。She wiped her tears haphazardly, and didn't dare to act out any longer. 。"Ergou was also really desperate, so I gave him the silver..." 。"Let him settle down and find a legitimate way to earn a living..." Li Lao'er impatiently listened to this, waving his hand to chase people away, "I don't care what he does, even if he begs for food, don't beg in front of our door!" Wu Cuifang curled her lips and directly opened the door and went out. 。In the kitchen, Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru glanced at the courtyard gate, both sighing. 。Wu Cuifang is just incorrigible. If things continue like this, our good family is sure to fall apart. 。But they are sisters-in-law, these words are hard to say. 。Just then, there was a sudden burst of drums and gongs from the village entrance, and the whole village became lively. 。Jiāxǐjiā'ān, like a rabbit, flew out and quickly ran back to report. 。Grandma, someone is dancing the yangko at the village entrance, go and have a look! 。"

Lao Li stood at the door, hesitating a little. " 。Such lively scenes can only be seen once or twice a year, during the Lunar New Year. It's a pity to miss it. 。But the granddaughter was asleep, and in her heart she kept thinking 。Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru came out of the kitchen, both vying to stay behind to watch the child 。Old Li felt sorry for her daughter-in-law's youth and hard work at home. She should go out and enjoy the festivities now more than ever. 。Fortunately, Jia Ren came out of the house and smiled. 。Grandma, aunt, you all go and have a look at the excitement. 。I was reading a book while watching my sister sleep. 。" Homeen is always steady and reliable, so everyone felt at ease and hurried to the village entrance together. 。At that moment, there was only Jia Ren left in the Li Family Courtyard, along with the sleeping Jia Yin…In the small grove behind the village, Wu Cuiflower was lecturing Wu Erdog... 。 “I took a beating to get you two ounces of silver. " 。You really shouldn't gamble this time. After paying off your debts, find a legitimate job as soon as possible. 。" Wu Erdog grabbed the two ounces of silver and, unconcernedly, sneered. 。"I also want to find a proper job, but this two taels of silver isn't even enough to pay off my debts." 。"Could you find me a few more ounces Otherwise, I'll have to go gambling again and see if I can make back my losses." 。"You, you're going to kill me!" Wu Cuiflower jumped up and down, she wouldn't dare ask for money again, otherwise, she would really be kicked out of the house. 。"I don't care," Wu Erdog was even better at shirking responsibility than she was, smooth as a rolling knife of meat, "No silver, I'll just go gambling again." 。“Wu Cuifang was driven to desperation, she hit her younger brother twice with a hammer, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to...” 。Looking at the bustling village entrance from afar, she thought that there should be no one at home, so she made up her mind and quietly slipped back home. 。 a good reputation.Now that her Jiu Lian Zhai had been robbed of its business by Fu Nu'er's shop, and with less silver coming in, she was getting anxious and her true nature was showing.Wénjuān felt s...
