Chapter 82
Cheng Xue was stunned when she heard the sound, she looked at Li Yue wonderingly and asked:
"Is it your third grandfather's voice?"

"……Seems to be."

"What is he doing here?" Cheng Xue finished muttering, and told Li Yue to watch the pot, and left the house in a leisurely manner.

"Huizi's daughter-in-law is busy, isn't she?"

"En." Cheng Xue responded, opened the courtyard door, and left the dog unleashed.

Seeing that she didn't intend to let him in, Li Laosan stood still and said:
"Son, I don't want to come, but the patriarch is sick and can't get down to the land, so he insisted on me. I'll just go through the motions, and you can decide whatever you want. We don't have much to say."

It is said that Li Laosan is smart, and he has learned a lesson today.Go back and tie the tiger and invite him into the house.

"Since the third uncle cuts to the chase, I won't beat around the bush. I guessed what the third uncle came for, and I also guessed what Li Fang meant. But I don't have to pay the family rations. Does the third uncle think I can buy firecrackers?"

"I know I can't, and I said it too, but he didn't give up and insisted on letting me come. Let me just go through the motions, and you have the right to think that I drink too much and talk nonsense."

Naturally, Cheng Xue couldn't be hostile to such an attitude, she shook her head with a smile and said:

"Look at what Uncle San said, I can't tell the good from the bad? But I don't understand one thing. You said that the firecrackers were bought by my family all these years, and the Qingming sacrifices were also made by my family. Why did the money from the clan go? ?”

She knew that Li Laosan was ambitious, so she said that on purpose.Of course, he also guessed that Li Fang would give money to these clan elders, but the money he gave was definitely the tip of the iceberg.Moreover, it was definitely not Li Fang who asked him to come.

Seeing that he was silent, Cheng Xue took another dose of medicine——

"Third Uncle, let me tell you the truth, our Jia Huizi will not stay in the village for long. There are so many good seedlings in the ethnology, such as Li Wanping. With time, he will definitely be promising. Huizi is now working hard on pediatrics. The test is to pave the way for these seedlings. Our family has never thought about the patriarch learning from the clan."

If it is so straightforward, Li Laosan can't even pretend to be confused.The reason why he has been allowing Li Fang to suppress Li Hui is because he is afraid that this kid will show up.Now that people express their views, there are no scruples.

"Okay, third uncle knows what to do. You are such a good girl, no wonder Li Qingnian's mother made a fuss and asked you to pass the door. With you guarding Huizi, that kid can't be wrong. Thank you, third uncle, it will be done for sure." I will compensate you well."

"Third uncle is too polite, you are following the destiny."

Cheng Xue's stupid words immediately made him "haha..." laugh heartily.Changing the patriarch is not a trivial matter, it needs a long-term plan.

Standing up to leave, Cheng Xue hurriedly picked up a basin of meatballs in a small basin.

"Third Uncle has a fresh taste, it's just out of the pan, it's hot."

"No, my house exploded too."

"Are you still being polite to us? Take it quickly, it's not a good thing."

Cheng Xue sent him out while talking, and after watching him go a long way, she went back to the house.

The fish has been fried, and the oil is poured into a small pot for future cooking.I specially bought ten catties of soybean oil in Fucheng, just to fry things for today.

"Tangtang will go back to the house to rest for a while, mother will go to see your father."

"I'll go too, mother, help dad cut the paper. I heard from Tie Dan that many people made couplets and blessings with dad. It's great."

Li Yue said "good" not because of the eggs, but because the village finally recognized them and valued them.

Although they say "don't care", who can really "don't care"?
"That's no need for you, go into the house to put your brother and sister to sleep, and you can lie down for a while."

She forced her into the house, and when she entered the study, Li Hui was lying on the table and writing quickly, while Yan Yixin was writing blessings beside her.He has also practiced for several years, and he has some skills, so he must write better than Li Fang.

"My daughter-in-law came to help me sharpen the ink, I need to write more."

"Why?" Cheng Xue wondered.

Li Hui looked up and took a deep breath, she understood instantly.

Yes, Li Fang can't write this year, and most people in the village have to come here.

After the ink was finished, she went to cut the paper again. Anyway, she couldn't be idle, as both of them were busy.

While working, Lu's voice came from outside.

What's wrong, Li Laosan is not good at lobbying, so he changed it?
When Cheng Xue came out, she saw that the tiger had been tied and hadn't let it go, so she let the dog go first, and then opened the door.

"Auntie, what's the matter?"

Just as Mrs. Lu was about to enter the courtyard, when he saw the big yellow dog staring at him, he quickly "ouched" and took two steps back.Cheng Xue took the opportunity to come out and close the courtyard door.

"Ah, it's nothing serious. It's just that your second uncle is sick and can't write couplets. Let Huizi write the couplets for this year's village, and then hand over half of the eggs to the account."

What?Are you so shameless?
Cheng Xue "haha..." sneered and said:
"What's the rule set before?"

"What is the rule set before! It's always been like this, but you don't know it. If you write those few couplets in a year, you can pay half of them?"

Lu Shi's arrogant appearance is disgusting, this kind of person can't let her have real power, otherwise she will float to the sky every minute.

"The clan is so enlightened? Since it is enlightened, why does my family have to produce firecrackers every year? Qingming sacrifices to produce offerings?"

"Your family has a lot of land and wealth, who will come out if you don't come out?"

"Auntie, are you sure that's what the clan thinks?"

"I..." Lu Shi covered her mouth, panicked.

When I got excited, I spoke out what was in my heart, wouldn't this be a bad thing!
Cheng Xue was very angry, and hated this kind of people who "eat their grandchildren, drink their grandchildren and don't thank their grandchildren" the most.Of course, I also hate the original owner!

"Since my aunt said so, let's not talk about family food, firecrackers, seeds, offerings, and eggs this time. Our family doesn't have a cent. If you want us to hand over the eggs, there is no problem. Take out the previous accounts. Can't see , do not pay."

"what do you mean?"

"The literal meaning, is it hard to understand?" Cheng Xuemi smiled, "You are just a messenger. Now that the word has arrived and I heard it, you can go back to make business. From now on, we will have no contact with your fourth wife. Don't be taken advantage of!"

Compared to Cheng Xue's calmness, Lu Shi was trembling all over.

Not out of anger, but out of fear.

She didn't expect her slip of the tongue to do something bad, what will she do when she goes back.Just when he was about to speak softly, Xu Geng came out from the next door.

"Hold chicken feathers as arrows, who do you think you are! Li Fang's shriveled bastard shaves here every year, you are blind like a villager? Walk around, don't play around here, no one is waiting for you. If you think Wronged, Lizheng, the mayor, the county magistrate, you can go find it casually. Tie Danniang, go home, are you done with your homework? Have you finished writing my couplets?"

"No, much older."

"Then go back quickly."

Cheng Xue obediently said "Oh", waved at Shi Lu, and closed the courtyard door.Geng smacked on the ground, and went home humming a little tune.

Only Lu Shi stood there angrily grinding his back molars.

Every household exploded things today, and no one came out, so this little farce, only Geng knows...
