There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 96 Difficulties (Part [-])
Li Jiaoniang knew the general words, which made the eldest lady of the Liu family like her even more.

When she left, Mrs. Liu insisted on giving her a packet of seeds.

"This is a cabbage seed. Take it. There are extra seeds in the house. Plant a kind of cabbage in front of and behind the house, and it will grow a large area."

The seeds of cabbage are small, and a small bag can be used to plant half an acre of field.

Li Jiaoniang thanked her very gratefully.

"Hey, isn't this from Luo Fucai's family in Yushan Village?" Mrs. Liu asked in surprise as if she had just seen Zhong.

There was no surprise in the eyes, but contempt.

"I'm with Jiao Niang, she's timid." Zhong said shyly.

"Your family hasn't been to Luo Cheng's house for a few years, right? He's married now, and the family has a wife in charge, so he needs to move around a lot, right? Hahahaha." Mrs. Liu laughed.

This remark was sarcasm, it meant that their family didn't come to see Luo Cheng when Luo Cheng was alone, but now that Luo Cheng has a wife and his family's conditions are a little better, they come here to join in the fun.

Zhong couldn't hold back his face, and turned around.

Li Jiaoniang pretended not to know, put the cabbage seeds in her pocket, and thanked, "Thank you, Aunt Liu, then let's go."

"Hey, come and sit down if you have time, Luo Cheng's daughter-in-law?" Mrs. Liu smiled and waved.

When Li Jiaoniang and Mrs. Zhong walked out of the gate of her courtyard, Mrs. Liu immediately yelled, "What the hell? They don't come when they are in trouble, but they come when they are rich? Only Luo Cheng and his wife are honest. kicked out!"

After such a few families walked down, Zhong really wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide himself.

Because none of them smiled at her, they all said something with sarcasm.

But she promised that Li Jiaoniang would accompany her, and she couldn't run away halfway, so she had to bite the bullet and follow.

It wasn't until Li Jiaoniang said that it was almost done and she had to go home, that Zhong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The family owes too much, and finally earned some money by selling wild boars, but after this trip, there is not much money left. I have to buy seeds to buy land and pay land taxes..." Li Jiaoniang snapped her fingers, They said one by one, "These places don't cost money, and they won't be able to survive the second half of the year. The rations are all dependent on seeds and land."

Li Jiaoniang sighed long and sighed shortly, how dare the Zhong family mention the matter of borrowing money?

He didn't dare to say a word, he just followed suit.

When I got home, Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "I'm young and timid when I speak, and I owe my aunt to accompany me to give me courage."

Zhong said awkwardly, "You take our family in, it's only right for you to do this little favor."

Li Jiaoniang looked at the smoke wafting from the neighbor's house not far away, "Ah, it's time for dinner again, I'll put the account book away and cook."

Zhong said hurriedly, "Let me cook, anyway, I'm free when I'm free."

"How can it be? My aunt is a guest." Li Jiaoniang shook her head.

"Chunbao's mother, Luo Cheng's daughter-in-law is the head of the house, she should cook this meal, why don't you come and see the child soon? Chunbao has been teasing me, and I'm almost exhausted." Luo Sun heard the two people in the yard The voice of the voice, calling for Zhong Shi loudly.

Zhong's face was ashamed, "Jiao Niang, you go to the kitchen first, I will be there in a while."

"No need, Auntie, let's watch Chunbao, he is young and needs someone to watch over him, the ninth wife is getting old, she can't take care of the child." Li Jiaoniang said.

Zhong wanted to say that her mother-in-law had better physical strength than her, and she often pushed her to the ground and beat her, but she didn't even have the strength to fight back.

She envied Li Jiaoniang very much because she didn't have a mother-in-law, no one was in charge, and she could do whatever she wanted.

Li Jiaoniang went into the bedroom and put down the ledger and the wooden box containing the money, rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen. In the kitchen, Luo Cheng was chopping firewood.

Chunya is helping to stack firewood.

Mrs. Zhong entered the west room, "Mother."

Mrs. Luo Sun was sitting on a stool made from a tree stump, looking at her grandson who was sitting on the ground groaning angrily, and when she saw Mrs. Zhong walking in, she asked with a straight face, "Why did it take you so long to come back? "

Zhong handed a small bag of sucrose cubes in his arms to Chunbao, "Take it, let's play."

When Chunbao saw Tangtang, he stopped humming. Xizici got up from the ground and ran to the front yard to play.

Luo Sun raised her eyebrows, "Where did you get the sugar?"

Zhong said, "When Jiaoniang and I ran out the door just now, they gave it to Jiaoniang, and Jiaoniang asked me to give it to Chunbao."

Mrs. Luo Sun glanced in the direction of the backyard, and asked Mrs. Zhong in a low voice, "Have you asked Mrs. Luo Cheng's wife about borrowing money?"

Zhong's face was troubled, "No."

"What? Why didn't you ask? You...you are going to piss me off." Luo Sun stomped her feet, "All the money is in her hands. If you don't borrow some, she ran away with the money. Luo Cheng drinks the northwest wind? She is a foreign woman! God knows what is her background? Fucai is in the county, what can I get for it?"

Mrs. Zhong stood in front of Mrs. Luo Sun, twisting her sleeves in embarrassment, "Mother, Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng are having a hard time."

"What is difficult?"

"They owe a lot of money, I'm afraid they don't have much money to lend us."

Luo Sun sneered, "How do you know?"

"Jiaoniang went to pay off the debt just now, and I followed. She has a thick account book in her hand, and she owed five years of debt, and she just paid it back today."

Mrs. Luo Sun jumped up angrily, and poked Mrs. Zhong on the forehead, "You say you are stupid, but you still don't admit it, and when she says you have no money, do you really think you have no money? How much money did you pay back? Have you written it down, counted it? Have you counted the money she has left?"

Zhong shook her head, "No."

Luo Sun sneered, "So, she lied to you, that little lady is very cunning, your third aunt is right, she is a demon."

"The third aunt kicked Luo Cheng out of the family. She and Luo Cheng are at odds, and she will not listen to those who say that about Jiao Niang on purpose." Zhong objected.

"Hey, are you still speaking for outsiders? Are you not from my family?" Luo Sun was so angry that he slapped his thigh.

Zhong thought he was going to hit her again, so he backed away in fright.

"I don't care about that much anymore. You can either borrow ten pennies from Luo Cheng, or marry Chunya. The family in Niutian Village is willing to pay twelve pennies for Chunya."

Zhong's face turned pale with fright, "Mother, I... I'll think of a way, don't sell Chunya, she's still young. Besides, that person is older than me..."

"Then hurry up."

Zhong sighed inwardly, "...Yes."

……

Li Jiaoniang rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen, ready to make dinner.

Seeing her coming, Chun Ya smiled and called out, "Sister Jiao Niang."

"Oh, it's for you too." Li Jiaoniang handed the candy bag to Chunya, "I just went to another house and they gave it to me. Take it, I just gave Chunbao a bag, this is yours .”

Hearing that Chun Bao was also available, Chunya dared to reach out to pick it up, "Thank you, Sister Jiao Niang." She ran away happily.

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng were the only ones left in the kitchen, so she smiled and said, "I guess, the ninth wife and the sixth aunt are afraid to borrow money."

Luo Cheng stopped chopping firewood, "Why?"
