”Shufang, come to the table!”
Zhang Sanhua understood what the village head wanted to discuss with his daughter-in-law and took her to the table.
Even if there are women on the kitchen table, they can't eat.
Liu Shufang was called Shangtai by the head of the village. Liu Shufang still had a lot of face and didn't pinch it. What was polite in her own home?
Sitting on the table with his mother-in-law, Liu Jianguo was more honest and dull. The village head was a senior official in his eyes. At the beginning, he was still a little embarrassed.
When he saw his sister sitting down, he was no longer nervous. He stood up from the village head and filled the wine one by one.
”Village head, uncles and brothers, I'm tired to help today. I eat more and drink more than anything else. I have enough meat and I'm open to drinking.”
After this, the village head raised his thumb and praised Liu Jianguo to Zhang Sanhua.
”Old sister-in-law, you can do it! She is a talented person, long and energetic. The girl Hailan is blessed. You are even more blessed to enjoy the happiness of her children. ”
When Zhang Sanhua heard the village head praising his uncle, he was even more proud. Who had her uncle like? To have a person, to have a good appearance, but also to love Hailan, can make money, this is a man who is hard to find in the countryside.
”Yes! It's really nice of me to help with all the work at home, and I'm very satisfied with my temper. ”
This was the first time that she praised Liu Jianguo in front of others, but she had always hated it before. When she went back to the door for the first time, she was stunned that she would not let them go when there were too many people. She sent Haifeng to the entrance of the village and let them go back when there was no one.
That's not because Liu Jianguo is lame and thin. She feels ashamed and afraid of being seen by the villagers.
Now it's one time and another, Liu Jianguo stands up, which is also very dignified, at least no one on this table can compare with him.
Liu Shufang slightly lowered her head, people! You should have ability and money, so that others can look up to you.
”Haitao's daughter-in-law, I told you about seeds during the autumn harvest. Do you remember that?”
Li Yaozu boasted that Liu Jianguo's purpose was to make Liu Shufang happy. However, he knew that Liu Jianguo was the elder brother of Haitao's daughter-in-law, which was also a preparation for a conversation.
”I remember, I don't have a problem with this, but uncle, I know that the corn planted here is more expensive than ordinary corn. How can I calculate it?”
Liu Shufang replied with a smile. The scandal is still in front of her. She can sell li Yaozu a face and exchange a catty for a catty. However, we should let everyone know that her family is willing to suffer this loss for the sake of everyone's welfare. Don't treat her family as a fool.
”It's natural. There's a rule. But this year you've seen that there's not much food left in every family except those who pay for public food. If that happens, we'll have to starve.”
Li Yaozu was in a dilemma. Haitao's daughter-in-law was right, but he thought he had enough face. If she could give a catty to a catty, the seeds would be good. Next year, everyone's harvest would be good. At that time, everyone would be grateful to her family.
But this can't be said, this is to let Ning family suffer losses, take care of the whole village of old and young.
But the orphans and widows' families seem to be bullying them.
”Uncle, our family can agree to change one catty for another, but this is for the sake of uncle's face and the help of old and young men to my family. We have to let everyone understand this.”
When Liu Shufang saw that Li Yaozu was in trouble, she laughed and pulled her words back. Anyway, she said everything she should have said. All the people sitting on the table were from the village. They must have passed on the message when they went back. If they didn't treat her family as a fool, they would be grateful.
”Thank you, uncle. It's for the welfare of the whole village. I don't know if you should ask me if you want to ask?”
