Chapter 184: Give it to us
Su Shi came in with a tray of refreshments, and so did Xiao Yang behind him. Faced with the chaotic scene in the hall, they were not surprised. After all, Li Xiaonuan had already told them last night.
Su Shi set up the refreshments, and the old lady also touched her oily and slippery bun and walked in. When they saw the old lady, they all nodded at her as a greeting. The old lady nodded in return, and then sat down on the main seat and began to eat refreshments.
Su Shi and Li Xiaoyang had a good refreshment, and also found a place to sit down next to Li Xiaonuan. Because all the women came, Father Li did not come forward. Li Xiaonuan is very grateful for the support of her family.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you should be quiet for a while and listen to what I have to say." Li Xiaonuan saw that a few people only cared about talking about themselves, so he had to say it loudly.
Once again, the scene was under control. didn't wait for Li Xiaonuan to speak again, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Huang over there spoke.
"Xiao Nuan, our family grows peppers in the inferior land of the two acres of wasteland. Besides, the money we earned from selling chili peppers these days is enough for our family to buy three acres of high-quality dry land. So my aunt thought about it for a while, and the chili field will be transferred directly to your family's name. Aunt Zhou said.
"Yes, yes, Xiao Nuan, it's not that the aunts don't want to share this matter with you. The main thing is this, if there are too many people involved, it will not be good for you. If it's just your family that bears this matter, then you might as well find a way to solve it. If there are fewer people to bother you, you can come up with good ideas, and those noble people are more willing to lend a hand. Aunt Huang had a faint sadness and deep worry on her face......
"Yes, yes. Look at how good she is, Aunt Huang can talk, hehehe. It was still Lizheng's cousin-in-law who was the first to respond.
"Ouch, her Aunt Zhou's family is well-off, and she doesn't care about the harvest of those acres or two. But our family is still waiting for the money to marry the bride. Old lady, I don't open my mouth, our family's two acres of land, but they have been planted, and they will be given to your family for four taels of silver per acre. "This is the daughter-in-law of Zhang Dahai's family at the entrance of an old Zhoucun village, their family is really difficult, but her words make people feel a little unpleasant.
"Aunt Zhang, look at what you said, Xiao Nuan and no one in their family said that they wouldn't give silver." Granny Yu's cousin and nephew said.
Hearing this, Xiao Yang cleared his throat and raised his voice: "Aunts, we have discussed, and we will buy the pepper fields in the aunts' house at the price of medium dry land." As for some aunts who don't want to sell the land, it's okay. We just need to go to Lizheng to open a white note, and when the matter is over, we will eliminate the slip. ”
After Xiaoyang's words were finished, the aunts present all showed incredible expressions. One of the aunts, who hadn't opened her mouth yet, asked, "Xiaoyang, can you call the shots?" ”
The old lady looked at Xiaoyang with satisfaction, and nodded directly: "That's right, what Xiaoyang said is the result of our family's discussion." ”
Things were happily decided. Many of the aunts were very embarrassed. Except for the good Aunt Huang and Aunt Zhou, who resolutely did not accept the cash, they directly transferred the land, and the other families sold the land to the Li family.
Xiaoyang took the silver from Li Xiaonuan and went to go to the house with those people to go through the formalities. Only then did Daddy Li dare to come out of the room, and he threw a sentence: "I'll go to the field to have a look first, and I'll come back at lunch." ”
Looking at Father Li, who took the hoe and left, Li Xiaonuan was deeply discouraged. How she hopes that one day she can make her family more comfortable. It's just that every step she takes now is a wrong move, which can always bring infinite trouble and harm to the family.
It seems that every time something bad happens, all the bad luck will follow. Not long after Dad Li left, when Li Xiaonuan was cleaning up the hall, bursts of crying and scolding sounded outside the courtyard gate.
Li Xiaonuan listened attentively for a long time, and finally figured out that those who were making trouble outside the courtyard were none other than Chen's mother's family. Thinking of the best of the Chen family, Li Xiaonuan felt disgusted.
"Ouch, this is a broom star that hurts people, who can't harm it, you have to harm your relatives. Is there any reason for this? Li Xiaonuan, you Tiansha Lone Star, you broom star, get out of the old lady. The old woman's unique high-pitched voice was as shrill and loud as the sound of a broken gong.
"That's right, it's such a harmful thing, and it can make a lot of money by lying to everyone. Whose relatives would harm their relatives like this? Even if the pepper is not good for planting, it always doesn't bloom, and we put up with it. But now I heard that planting that pepper is a prison sentence. Tell me, what are you doing with such a relative? The middle-aged woman complained loudly, as if she was afraid that others would not know the relationship between the two families.
"Mother-in-law, sister-in-law, you can't blame Xiao Nuan for this matter. At the beginning, they didn't let us plant any peppers, they wanted to plant them for his sister-in-law. That's why we ignore it like this. To say, if it weren't for his sister-in-law taking pity on our family's hard life, she wouldn't be willing to give us such a thing to earn money. We really can't blame Xiao Nuan for this? "This woman, although she kept saying that she couldn't blame Li Xiaonuan, but the words that implied that Li Xiaonuan harmed her own uncle should not be too obvious.
"My dear mother, what's the use of you making trouble like this. I came to get the pepper seedlings, but my little sister. If you make trouble like this now, people can't say that you are messing around and unreasonable. Probably afraid that the woman's words were not straightforward enough, and his wife would not understand, a man also loudly persuaded the old woman.
"Ouch, it's not. Look how vicious that Li Xiaonuan is. He has such a ruthless mind. It's not enough to find death in her own family, but she also picked up all her uncles, and none of them were missed. I heard that their aunt was also tired. Ouch, I really didn't expect this human life to be so hard, I don't know how many more people will be killed. The old lady's voice rose again.
Li Xiaonuan couldn't listen anymore, so she raised her feet and was about to go down the steps to open the courtyard door. Su Shi on the side grabbed Li Xiaonuan and pushed her into the room.
"Xiao Nuan, you go into the house and stay, when will my mother let you come out, when will you come out again, do you hear me?" Su Shi pushed Li Xiaonuan while explaining to her.
"But mother, I ......" Before Li Xiaonuan could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the old lady.
"Xiao Nuan, listen to your mother. Don't come forward with this. There are all elders outside, and it's not appropriate for you to come forward. You go in and avoid it, and let me settle this matter with your mother. The old lady's wrinkled face had an intimidating majesty.
Li Xiaonuan saw that the two elders had made up their minds not to let her participate in this matter, so she reluctantly returned to the house. Su Shi took the opportunity to block the door from the outside, and explained that Li Xiaonuan stayed obediently for a while before leaving.
The old lady also followed Su down the steps and stood in the middle of the courtyard waiting. The moment Su Shi opened the courtyard door, he was almost not frightened by the situation in front of the door. (To be continued.) )
