Chapter 58
Wu had no choice but to quickly say: "Five taels is five taels, I don't have any more."

Seeing that the matter had come to an end, the village chief comforted Lin Changlu with a few words and left.

The others also gradually dispersed. When Mrs. Wu left, Ah Li looked at her and asked, "Ma'am, did you really do something bad?"

Wu Shi thought that A Li was here to mock her, so she took one look at her and left.

Mrs. Pei came over and took Ah Li's hand and said, "She is a bad person, do you know that Li Li should stay away from her in the future?"

Now in her eyes, Mrs. Wu is a dangerous person, and if she can't beat her, she will play tricks secretly. She is afraid that if this person makes his mind on Ah Li, she quickly reminds Ah Li.

Lin Changlu asked someone to repair the foundation again.

After Mrs. Wu returned home, her men and children came back from the town, and they were really angry when they found out that she was going to pay the Lin family five taels of silver.

"You prodigal bitch, we worked so hard all day in the county town, and you gave away the money we earned to other people for nothing at home?"

She was really aggrieved by this matter, unable to swallow and spit it out like eating a dead fly.

She still dare not speak back.

The lesson this time was a bit profound, and she didn't dare to gossip about others in the future.

A month later, Ah Li and his family's house was also built.

Their yards are all made of bricks and wood this time, which is much better than the previous houses with earthen walls.

The fence of the yard is also surrounded by bricks, which is safer.

There are a lot of them, this time Lin Changlu simply gritted his teeth and built a few more rooms, and when Lin Sanrong gets married, he no longer has to worry about the house.

After the furniture in the house is finished, they plan to choose a good day to move.

They also specially sent a letter to Lin Sanrong in Fucheng, telling him that his family had built a new house and was about to move. In order not to affect his studies, they let him know so that he didn't have to rush back.

After Lin Sanrong received the letter, he felt very warm. His family had high expectations for him, so he worked hard on his own. Since studying with Mr. Chen and his seniors, his grades have improved by leaps and bounds.

Mr. Chen was very satisfied with this student, and besides the required subjects, he also taught him how to be an official.

He knew that this young man would definitely occupy a place in the Golden Luan Hall in the future.

Happy housewarming day.

The Lin family's newly built house was extremely lively, and there were more than a dozen tables in the open space at the entrance, all of which were fully occupied.

Everyone is discussing the new house in front of them.

"Changlu's family is really developed now. When I first started building a house, I thought he was going to build a house with earthen walls. I didn't expect to build a big tile house with blue bricks. Although it is not as good as the house of the Lu family next door, it is also a house in our village. There are few brick houses."

"It's been 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Thinking about the past few years, their family was so poor that they couldn't even afford food, and now they live in such a good house."

"Zhao Lao Er, are you envious? Envious, quickly build one."

"It's as if you don't envy yourself. If I have money, I will build one. The key is that I don't have money?"

"Hahaha"

Everyone was talking and laughing, waiting for the table to start

Ah Li and Si Lang started eating early in the house, and Mrs. Pei served them several dishes, most of which were meat dishes, because Ah Li likes to eat meat.

Although there was a lot of meat in the dishes at the banquet, if there were too many people, there would be nothing to pick up with chopsticks, so Mrs. Pei didn't let a few children go out to eat at the banquet.

Lin Erbao didn't see Ah Li and Si Lang outside, so he slipped into the house and looked around.

When they found them eating meat in the house, they were so greedy that they drool.

Since his brother went to Fucheng to study, the food in their family has plummeted, and his grandma said that he would save back the 50 taels of silver he gave out before.

He hasn't eaten meat for several days, and his grandma didn't come to the banquet today, he sneaked here by himself.

Lin Dabao couldn't help seeing Ah Li gnawing on the delicious sauced pig's trotters.

Like a gust of wind, it rushed in and snatched the pig's trotter from Ah Li's hand and stuffed it until it gnawed.

Ah Li's hands were still in the position of gnawing on the pig's trotters.

What about trotters?
When she realized it, Si Lang had already held Lin Dabao down.

"Why did you grab my pig's trotter!"

Ah Li looked at Lin Erbao angrily with a small face.

At this moment, Lin Erbao completely disregarded his image, he held the pig's trotter and gnawed on it, his mouth was stuffed with meat, and he didn't want to talk to Ah Li at all.

Mrs. Pei entered the room, wanting to see Ah Li and the others ready to pick up the bowl after eating, but found Si Lang holding Lin Erbao.

"What are you doing? Dalang, quickly let go of Er Bao."

"Grandma, he snatched little aunt's trotters as soon as he came in."

"That is, if you dare to snatch food from our little aunt, I will kill you."

Erlang raised his fist and punched Lin Erbao.

Pei Shi sighed and pulled them away.

"Forget it, today is a day of great joy, we don't need to worry too much about him."

Lin Erbao didn't care about anything in order to eat meat. After being let go by Lin Dalang and the others, he gnawed on the pig's trotters in two or three strokes.

"Second Grandma, can you give me another pig's trotter?"

"There are plenty of pig's trotters, and they've already been distributed. You... If you're still hungry, I'll finish the little crispy meat for you!"

Although she didn't like Lin Changgui's family, she didn't care about Lin Erbao when she thought that the children were led astray by adults.

Hearing Xiaosurou, Lin Erbao's eyes lit up, and he nodded persistently, "Xiaosurou is also fine! Thank you, Second Grandma."

"Lin Erbao, how long has it been since you ate, and you actually thanked my grandma for eating meat. You didn't call my grandma like that before."

"It was my grandma who asked me to call my second grandma a dead old woman, so I don't blame me."

"Hmph, your grandma is not a good person, and you can only learn to be a bad person."

"Your grandma is not a good person. My grandma treats me very well."

"I treat you well and don't give you meat? I see you grabbing food like a starved ghost reincarnated."

"My grandma said, as long as I persist for a few more days, I will buy a lot of meat to eat. If it weren't for your family insisting on our 50 taels of silver, my grandma would not do this. It's all because of you."

Mrs. Pei heard this when she came in with a bowl, and beside her was Mrs. Qian, the second daughter-in-law who came in to get something.

"Hey, I'm afraid this second treasure will be spoiled by his grandma."

Mrs. Pei really wanted to say that with such a person teaching by example, their family is hopeless.

With a displeased face, she wrapped the little crispy meat in oiled paper and gave it to him.

"Erbao, go home! Don't come here if you have nothing to do in the future."

Lin Erbao curled his lips and muttered in a low voice, "I wouldn't come here if it wasn't for your family having meat to eat!"

Then he took the paper bag and ran away.

"Auntie, you are still kind, this child can't even thank you."

"Let him go! Wait for the day when he grows up and regrets it."

Pei was afraid that Ah Li would not be full, so she brought in a chicken drumstick for each of the children.

When everyone has finished eating and the banquet has not been completely withdrawn.

Qin and Lin Changgui ran to the gate of Lin's new house with Lin Erbao, who was limp all over, shouting.
