Chapter 252 The vicious female partner escapes to farm (2) (thanks to Xiaokanyunjuanyunshu~)
Uncle Li’s home is at the east end of the village.
Unlike the two simple thatched houses of Li Dalang's house, Uncle Li's house is a mud-tiled house in the style of a triple courtyard.
When Xu Yin led one and held another to his house, Aunt Li was drying dried sweet potatoes.
Ever since her family used the three-seven-quarter acres of Li Dalang's family's land to cultivate, even though the annual income is not as good as she said, it is still much richer than other families.
Other families dare not open their stomachs to eat, but her family actually has leftovers to dry in the sun.
Xu Yin sighed and stepped across the threshold.
Aunt Li heard the noise, turned around and saw that it was her, and said with a smile on her face, "Oh, what brought the young man's wife here?"
"It's not Feng, it's you, auntie. The rent you owe me has been delayed, so I have no choice but to come here to ask for it shamelessly." Xu Yin didn't talk nonsense to her.
The stomachs of the two little ones were growling all the way. They asked for food and went back to make food for them.
“Who owes you rent?” Aunt Li jumped up when she heard this.
Xu Yin picked her ears: "Didn't you say this yourself at the beginning? Your family used my land for planting, and every acre of land was given half a stone of millet every year. It has been a full year and three months since last spring. You The millet has been harvested and the sweet potatoes have been planted. Two crops of grain have been harvested. You can’t afford the rent, right? Oh, you think the journey is too far and it’s inconvenient to deliver it? It’s okay. Just leave it to me. I’m strong. , one person can pick it back without your help."
Aunt Li was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down. She pointed at her and was about to curse: "Damn you..."
Xu Yin interrupted her: "Auntie, for the sake of my relatives, I will give you a discount. You can give me half a stone of millet and half a stone of sweet potatoes! You just need new grain. I don't want the old grain before I rented my land." "
"you…"
"Okay!" Uncle Li came back from outside. He might have been listening for a while through the wall, but he didn't ask anything and asked his mother-in-law to load the food.
Aunt Li refused: "Why should I give it to you! I am busy taking care of these three acres and seventy percent of the land, but they have not contributed anything and they have to get two stones for nothing! Why!"
“This land belongs to my family!” Xu Yin said with a smile, “If you feel it’s hard work, you can just return it to us. I’m very strong, and I only have three acres of land, so I can totally farm it.”
“Bah!” Aunt Li spat at her, “What a beautiful idea you have!”
Xu Yin also took a sip and said, "Rebound."
…”
The couple had nothing to do with such a niece-in-law.
If someone comes crying, they have plenty of ways to deal with it.
If someone is tough, they will have a way to deal with it.
The only thing I didn't expect was that the new niece-in-law was like this: she seemed not afraid of anything.
She would react if you cursed me.
What does rebound mean? Bounce yourself back?
When she complained about her poor performance, she said that every household was like this. Other families would pay at least one stone for renting land. She only needed half a stone, which was enough to give face to her relatives.
Forget it!
You cannot afford to offend such a niece-in-law.
The good-looking Uncle Li sighed and waved his hand: "Give it to her!"
But Aunt Li is not willing to give away the food in vain, so what is her nephew-in-law? Her nephew Li Dalang stood in front of her, but she refused to give him money even if she didn't want to.
Aunt Li clapped her thighs and started crying. Neighbors on the left and right came out of the house and pointed at Xu Yin through the fence.
Xu Yin chuckled softly: "Auntie, I have a characteristic, that is, I will never make a fool of myself. It doesn't hurt to tell everyone my actual situation. My sister-in-law can't tolerate me, and she will be gone as soon as my parents leave. You want to marry me without a betrothal gift, as long as someone wants it. As for your family, you don't want to raise the second son and the third sister, so you agreed immediately when you heard that no betrothal gift was required. It took you a lot of thought to make a marriage happen in three days? Excuse me, where is the fee? It’s been a long time, what are you asking for?”
“Pfft…”
Some people in the melon-eating crowd laughed out loud.
Uncle Li's and Uncle Li's faces turned red.
Xu Yin continued: "I heard from Erlang that before Dalang left, he left you a sum of money to take care of Erlang and Sanmei. Is this how you took care of him? When Dalang walks in front, you take the land and plant it yourself. , I won’t say anything if you really want to pay rent, but after planting for more than a year, I can’t see a single grain of millet or sweet potato. Look at how skinny these two children are, and all the meat they lost will be made up for you. You went, right?"
“Pfft hahaha…”
Everyone couldn't hold back their laughter.
Uncle Li and his wife, especially Aunt Li, are indeed plump.
After laughing, I felt that Mr. Li and his wife were indeed a bit too much. They accepted money from the elder man, but failed to fulfill their responsibilities of taking care of their nephews and nieces. How can they be uncles like this!
"I said, Daniel, this is what's wrong with you two. Before Da Lang left, he gave you money to take care of the Erlang brothers and sisters. You took the money but no one took care of them. How will you explain to Da Lang when he comes back?"
“That’s it! I rented the land from Dalang’s family, but didn’t pay any rent, and I’m still digging like this for half a stone of food.”
"If I had known better, I would have rented it to me. I rented the land from the old bachelor's family at the west end of the village, and I was given one stone per acre!"
Everyone was whispering, and even though Uncle Li didn't hear it, he still felt the disdainful gaze. He was suddenly ashamed and angry, and said to Xu Yin:
"Okay! What are you talking about? Didn't you promise to give you food? I will also pay you back the money Dalang gave you! I didn't want it in the first place, but he insisted on giving it."
"What?" Aunt Li screamed when she heard that she wanted to give money back, "Why pay back! No! That's what we deserve. His third uncle and brother-in-law have both, so why should my family give it back!"
The third uncle and the younger brother-in-law of the Li family who were named secretly hid in the crowd, not daring to show their faces.
I was originally dissatisfied with the boss's exclusive use of the nephew's land, and had been looking for an opportunity to get a share of the pie. But now it seems that my nephew-in-law is a powerful person, so I might as well forget it. I can't get it back later, and I have to give back the money I got. Then the gain outweighs the loss.
The two of them looked at each other, secretly escaped from the crowd, and hid at home. No one shouted out, for fear of paying back the money.
Xu Yin didn’t ask for the money given by Da Lang. If she wanted to ask for it, she would wait until Da Lang came back to ask for it herself. She only wanted food today.
Aunt Li stopped yelling. With a sullen face, he put two stones of grain into a basket and dragged it out.
"You said it yourself, you don't need our help, take it away! Return the basket quickly."
Xu Yin saw that they were two large baskets that were not easy to carry, so she asked the melon eaters who could lend her a carrying pole.
“I have a carrying pole at home!”
Uncle Li couldn't help but turned around and went back to the house to get a pole.
But he was feeling stuffy and did not mention helping his nephew-in-law choose her home. It was up to him to see what she was going to do as a woman.
On the other hand, a village woman who had no business with Aunt Li said enthusiastically: "Daughter-in-law, do you want me to help you take care of the house?"
“Thank you, but no need.”
Xu Yin squatted down, hung the two baskets on the poles, and picked them up easily.
“Erlang, hold on to your sister, let’s go home!”
Everyone: “…”
intire ???
