Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.: Chapter 158 Self-righteous handle

 Chapter 158 The reason for self-righteousness

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Cui quickly changed the subject and asked about other trivial matters in the village.

They were eating and talking happily here, but the Jiao family's village next door was not so lively.

When they married their daughter into the Marquis' Mansion, in order to make it easier to move around in the future, the Jiao family bought one at a high price next to the village of the Marquis' Mansion.

Now, Mrs. Cui wants Zhuangzi back in the Marquis Mansion, and the Jiao family doesn't like it.

Especially in the past few days, Cuijiazhuangzi was packing things and registering them for storage, and the manpower left by the Hou Mansion earlier secretly came to deliver messages from time to time.

   Thinking of the food stored in the warehouse, Mrs. Jiao felt so much hatred that her whole body ached.

 At this moment, she was sitting in the yard, listening to my old lady scolding her.

"You are just too easy to bully. She is just a second cousin. What are you afraid of her for? She just gave her the dowry, and in the end, Zhuangzi was robbed. We don't have enough food at home, and we want to take some from you. Well, now it’s better, there’s no hope.”

Jiao was so angry that she gritted her teeth and argued with her mother in a low voice, "Do you blame me for the lack of food at home? Who asked you to sell all the food? The emperor moved the capital and everyone gathered here. Food is rich and valuable, don't you know?"

"Of course I know, that's why I sold it!" Mrs. Jiao said confidently, "I still had hope in you, but I didn't expect you to be so useless."

Mrs. Jiao was so angry that she got up and left. She should not come back to this family.

Originally, the Marquis Mansion ran out of supplies from Zhuangzi, and she wanted to go back to her parents' house to get some, but she couldn't get the things, and she was furious to death.

At this moment, a woman suddenly ran in to report.

“Madam, what a great thing! The concubine from the village next door actually brought a child back from outside and was standing at the door talking and laughing with the eldest man of the Liu family.”

"What?" Before Mrs. Jiao could be happy, Mrs. Jiao had already stood up in surprise, "Maybe this child is the **** she gave birth to outside! No wonder she was making trouble with the Marquis when she arrived in Jiangnan. It turned out that she was born outside Someone is there."

Mrs. Jiao was also very happy, but she still knew how to be cautious. She quickly changed into a set of coarse cloth dresses worn by ordinary women, and then sneaked to the village next door to visit.

Jiayin didn’t know that she had caused trouble to Mrs. Cui when she came out to play. Now that she had eaten and drank enough, she hugged Mrs. Cui’s neck and walked out.

Liu Zhiheng asked someone to prepare a basket of eggs, two boxes of soft and easy-to-melt snacks, and two pieces of soft cotton cloth. They put them in the carriage and gave instructions to his adopted sister.

“This is what I gave to the little girl, not yours!”

Mrs. Cui laughed when she heard this, "I know, my step-brother likes his daughter so much, so he should hurry up and have another one with his sister-in-law."

Liu Zhiheng glared, "It's not your fault that you found a lot of work for me. I haven't seen your sister-in-law in three days."

Mrs. Cui quickly apologized, "I will come back from the gravel beach tomorrow and leave this place to me. Brother-in-law, please go back to accompany your sister-in-law."

"Forget it, Zhuangzi is in your hands. I'm afraid it will be ruined within two days. When I sort it out, I'll find you two more reliable stewards."

 Liu Zhiheng waved his hand, his dislike for his adopted sister clearly visible on his face.

At the end, he squeezed Jiayin’s chubby hand and shook it, “Fu Niu, come and play again next time, uncle will prepare delicious food for you.”

 “Thank you, uncle!” Jiayin nodded with a smile, and her cute appearance made Liu Zhiheng curious again.

 Soon, the small convoy set off. In the front car was Mrs. Cui holding good news, and behind there was a carriage and a mule cart, pulling an old fruit farmer, a cart of coarse grains and a cart of fine seeds.

 When the good news didn’t come out, I was looking forward to it, but after only walking for half a day, I started to miss my parents and grandma, and I was excited and looking forward to getting home soon.

Mrs. Cui didn't restrain her and let her play. However, Jiayin was tired from playing and fell asleep in her arms.

Mrs. Cui patted the fat baby in her arms, suddenly feeling greedy. If she got married again and gave birth to a daughter or son like this, would she also be very happy? Thinking like this, she also felt sleepy, and slowly fell asleep with her arms around Jiayin.

They had no idea that someone had taken advantage of them and was almost going crazy with joy.

On the other side of the gravel beach, the Li family was also looking forward to it unconsciously. No matter what they were busy with, they couldn't help but stare at the intersection.

 Everyday when good news comes to the house, everyone is either carrying it or hugging it, and they are used to it.

Suddenly the child was no longer around, and everyone felt empty. They couldn't even eat lunch, and they always felt like they were missing a lot of things.

 Finally looking forward to the return of Mrs. Cui's carriage, all the young and old of the Li family hurriedly rushed to it.

The old lady didn't care about the pain in her shoulder and hugged her sleepy granddaughter, "Oh, grandma's good granddaughter, you are back!"

Tao Hongying also quickly touched her daughter's arms and legs, causing Mrs. Cui to laugh and cry, "Fu Niu is fine. She can eat, drink, and play happily."

The Li family was embarrassed, "It's not that I can't trust you, it's just that this child has been around all the time, and when he suddenly went out for a while, the whole family was lost."

Jiayin felt warm in his heart, and he was afraid that grandma would injure her shoulder wound, so he gave her a big kiss and ran to his mother's arms.

Seeing her brothers coming over, she pouted and kissed each of them, making Jia An's family happy to play with her sister.

Tao Hongying put her daughter on Jia Xi's back and told her, "She's nearby, don't run too far."

Jiayin quickly reached out to the car and said, "Dim sum, my dim sum!"

Mrs. Cui smiled and took a box and handed it to Jia An to hold.

The three brothers and sister then ran away happily, obviously looking for a place to share.

Everyone was laughing, and it happened that the village chief also brought someone over, and then we got down to business.

The fruit farmer Liu Zhiheng helped find was named Han. He was an old man over fifty years old. His dark complexion and calloused hands showed that he was an expert who had been working all year round.

The village chief was extremely satisfied. After a few words of greeting, he had Old Han taken to the mountain.

The villagers had already sent the fruit seedlings up the mountain, but they didn’t dare to plant them, for fear that something was wrong and they were in urgent need of guidance.

Mrs. Cui pointed out the fine seeds to everyone again, "This is the fine seed from my sworn brother Zhuangzi. You can plant it with confidence. In addition, I also asked people to pack a thousand kilograms of coarse grains. Don't dislike it, uncle, village chief, keep it for everyone to make." rations.”

“I don’t mind it, I don’t mind it. This is a help in times of need and it’s a big help.” The village chief was so happy that he loudly called Li Laoer to come forward.

“Second brother, make sure to write it down. In the autumn, we will return double the amount of fine seeds, and we will also increase the amount of coarse grains by 20%.”

Li Laoer responded and immediately took out his charcoal pen and made two notes in his small notebook.

Mrs. Cui still wanted to stop her. She was afraid that the villagers would be so polite, so she didn’t bring too much coarse food.

Old Mrs. Li took her hand and said, "The village chief's arrangement is right. No one's food is blown by the wind. If you borrow something, you have to pay it back, so it's not difficult to borrow again."

"Yes," the village chief nodded with a smile, "there are so many people in the village, it's hard to get into the habit of asking for anything you need. Mr. Ye even gave the saplings, and it was recorded in the account, and he will have to pay the capital in the future. Everyone Now that I have mountains and land, as long as I work hard, I will definitely have a good life. "

Mrs. Cui didn't insist anymore, but she admired everyone even more in her heart.

Who can not like such hard-working and self-reliant people?
