The skilled widow is busy farming

Chapter 148

Sister-in-law Li Mao has worked hard in the capital for nothing in the past few years. She has bought properties after making money. She gave Brother Jing a shop, Brother Rui a farm, and her daughter was married into two shops. These were all filled in later. Brother Qun and Brother Chun had The shop and the farm were prepared for the two brothers to get married. Anyway, there is no such thing as too much property. If you have money, it will not be difficult for your children to have money.

Prices in the capital have risen rapidly in the past few years. The prices for buying property are no longer what they were back then. They are almost constantly rising.

This little thing is the hard work of Li Mao and his wife for several years and the coffin book they saved before, all of which are used to buy property for their children.

They also added a thousand acres of land to the clan, which is a ancestral field. The names of Brother Qun and Brother Chun were listed. This was done without Xiuniang's consent. She still doesn't know about it, and the clan elder didn't give it to her. explain.

Li Mao and his wife discussed secretly in private.

"I have calculated that Brother Qun and Brother Chun have too little property. Brother Qun's fiancée is also the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Guo. She can't wait for the dowry to come in. That person should look down on Brother Qun. Brother Chun is almost reaching his age, so why not?" We need to buy some more property.”

The sister-in-law settled the accounts on her fingers.

"It's not enough. Brother Rui and Brother Jing said they could fill in some."

"Don't expect too much. We are all married. Brother Jing also has a child. Once he has a child, he will have his own thoughts and we have to take care of it ourselves."

"No, my siblings worked so hard to provide for the two brothers, but then they turned around and refused to admit their debt. My brothers are not willing to help, so I will beat them to death."

Li Mao was unhappy.

"That's not true, it's just that I'm worried that my daughters-in-law won't be happy."

Sister-in-law, women think more than men.

"Oh, I can understand what you want to say. Hey! There are so many things to do when marrying a noble woman."

Li Mao sighed.

"Don't say this in front of your siblings. She should be sad. Xiu Niang risked her life for our children. She has thought carefully about the future. Without Xiu Niang, would your three children be where they are today? , What has Xiu Niang gained? Your child has been surrendered, she is too old and can no longer work, and her son is left behind."

The sister-in-law covered her face and couldn't help crying.

"I didn't say anything bad about my siblings, I just muttered something."

"Why are you putting on that air? As long as the children are good, our life will not be in vain. We can still do it. We will buy properties for Brother Qun and Brother Chun."

"Okay, I can still work for a few more years. I'll buy it for my children."

Li Mao responded with another smile.

The couple came back just to run the restaurant and take care of the family affairs.

Xiuniang packed her things and went to the capital, and her sister-in-law brought some clothes, shoes, socks and gifts for the children.

"Don't worry, I'll show you Xiaoya and the child, and I'll make sure you feel at ease."

"it is good."

"Are you angry with me? I don't care so much. I don't want you to see your grandson, so I let you come back early."

"No, I know you are doing it for the good of me and the children. How could I be stupid enough to do that? Xiu'er, we have done so much, is it really worth it? Can the children really remember us?"

The sister-in-law's eyes were red with grievance. She didn't show her mother-in-law's behavior all day long, for fear of offending her daughter-in-law and affecting her son, which made her feel bitter.

Xiu Niang pulled her to sit down and said, "Let's settle the accounts carefully. You see, your eldest son only had a restaurant at the beginning. Now, with the addition of his wife's dowry, his family wealth is also rich. The old father-in-law and the elder brother-in-law personally take the school directors and contact them. They are all officials, can you give these?" After hearing this, the sister-in-law's eyebrows relaxed.

"I know that you feel a little aggrieved for providing for your daughter-in-law, but you must also understand that what they want is for you to be nice to their girl and not to embarrass your daughter-in-law, that's all."

"If you look at Brother Rui's wife, the Yue family has taught her every step of the way. Brother Rui can stay in the capital. The Wang family has made great efforts to give up their son's resources to Brother Rui. This is the same way my sister-in-law's mother-in-law used to support my brother. number."

"Magnolia respects you everywhere, pays tribute to you every day, and is filial to you. This is genuine, but there is not the slightest bit of disobedience to you."

"No, Xiaoya and Yulan are both very good to me. They follow me everywhere and protect me when I go out."

The sister-in-law quickly waved her hand to express that her daughter-in-law was indeed very filial to her.

"Yes, I asked you to come back, not because I don't like you, but because I want to give you a good place in front of Xiaoya and Yue's family. If Xiaoya is not here to give birth, her parents will have to go. People want to see their parents and relatives, but you are not here. You can just move around a little more, you and I are both daughters-in-law, so you should understand."

"Okay, I forgot about this level and just thought about taking care of my grandson."

"Look, let me tell you, only the mother cares about her daughter, and the mother-in-law only remembers her son and grandson."

The sister-in-law blushed at Xiu Niang's ridicule.

"Okay, I was wrong. If you don't want to go, I won't go. I know you love me and think about me and the children in every way. Why don't I just listen to you?"

"Right? I've told you that treating your daughter-in-law well means treating your son well. When your daughter marries to the capital, she will have to be your sister-in-law to support your daughter-in-law. Even if you go to the Lu family, you won't even take it. Eyes pinching you, people value the Wang family and Zhang family behind them."

Xiu Niang poked her forehead with her hand angrily.

"Ouch! I'm wrong. I'm just complaining to you. I have never felt sorry for my daughter-in-law. You know how I treat Xiaoya. I gave her everything at home and abroad. I didn't bully them. .”

The elder sister-in-law complained, but she was really kind to her daughter-in-law. She was kind and thoughtful, but she couldn't do anything immoral.

"If you do that, I won't care about your business anymore. I won't care about Brother Jing or Rui either. You can go do it yourself. The children are getting older anyway, so I won't be needed anymore."

"No, I'm not that kind of person. I just want to see my grandson, nothing else."

The sister-in-law quickly grabbed her arm and shook her, pleading.

"There are so many opportunities to see grandchildren. The children have to go to ethnic schools in the village. The children can only stay with their mother for three or four years. They have to go back to school at the age of five. Then you, the grandmother, will have to help take care of them. , you will give Xiaoya a little relaxation. In the future, when you are old, Xiaoya can be sincerely filial to you. I have done so much before, and you offend your daughter-in-law for such a trivial matter. Then I have not done it in vain. Who am I doing it for? , not for you and your wife, I have two sons to take care of in old age."

Xiuniang really likes her sister-in-law's character. She doesn't do bad things or say bad words. As long as you keep your head down and her sister-in-law talks to you from the bottom of her heart, her character is beyond words.

"Okay, I understand. I listened to you. I came back as soon as you asked me to. There was no delay at all. I didn't even dare to agree to Xiaoya's stay with me. Don't be angry. I didn't make my daughter-in-law angry. "

The sister-in-law quickly assured her.

"That's pretty much it. You can wait for a few years with peace of mind. The child will definitely be sent back to you. Let the child get close to his grandfather's family. It will be a good thing for the child to have many relatives to help him in the future. I have discussed it with Xiaoya a long time ago. Xiaoya agrees that she wants to go to the clan school, and the child’s surname is Li but not Sun.”

Xiu Niang poked her, and her sister-in-law smiled innocently.

After settling the sister-in-law's grievance, Xiu Niang began to check the gifts she wanted to bring. The gift for Xiaoya should be heavier, considering that the mother needs to take care of herself. She should bring more medicinal materials and bird's nests, and the gifts should also look good. Ling Ling always always I brought a lot of things, including a lot of specialties from my hometown for my relatives.

Xiu Niang's prestige and status in the hearts of the clan members is second only to those of the clan elders, such as Grandpa. She is also considerate, fair and just, and she is never bigoted. She treats the old, weak, orphans, widows and wealthy clan members the same way, and everyone respects her.

During the holidays, she received the most generous gifts.
