In Sun Lijuan's house, her mother Shang Meiying has already set up two tables full of meals, one table in the inner room and one table in the outer room, sister-in-law Li Yanfang is also helping to start, father Sun Changjin and brother Sun Liqiang are sitting on the edge of the kang while smoking and chatting, waiting for Liu Qiaoxian's family to come over for dinner.

Xiaobao jumped, shouted and sang and played alone in the kang.

"Mom! My aunt, they're here! Sun Lijuan said hello, the family hurriedly greeted out of the house, Sun Liqiang walked in front and greeted: "Uncle and aunt come in, peach blossom girl come in." Sun Liqiang was stunned and didn't greet the army. Sun Lijuan also felt very uncomfortable when she saw it, so she hurriedly pushed the army lightly from behind, meaning that he should hurry to the house. The army walked over the threshold with his head bowed in understanding, and sat down on the bench of the room without squeaking, his face ugly.

In order to relieve this embarrassing situation, Sun Lijuan hurriedly said to her son: "Xiaobao, your godfather and godmother are here, call quickly." ”

Xiaobao was also very well-behaved, opened his mouth and called sweetly: "Godfather, godmother, grandparents." ”

"Ouch, little baby, call grandma to hug." Liu Qiaoxian happily hugged Xiaobao in his arms.

Lijuan and Shang Meiying smiled with satisfaction, and grandma Shang Meiying scolded: "Little rabbit cub, don't make trouble, grandma is tired for a day." ”

Xiaobao grimaced, looked at Peach Blossom and said, "I'm looking for my godmother." Then he pounced on Peach Blossom, which caused everyone to laugh.

It is not new for two families to eat together, sometimes it is common for Lala to have a short family or a New Year's holiday, and when someone has something to do, the other family will cook the meal together. This time, as usual, the four old men sat cross-legged in the kang and chatted while eating, and then they heard Aunt Liu ask, "Didn't Limin and her younger brother come back from summer vacation?" ”

Shang Meiying replied: "I haven't come back, I have written to say that I am reviewing my homework, busy, hey, I don't want to go home." ”

"Mom, you see my uncle and aunt are here, hurry up and get down to business." Li Yanfang wiped her hands with a towel and reminded her when she entered the house.

Dajun and Liqiang sat side by side on the bench under the edge of the kang, and Dajun felt very uncomfortable when he saw Li Yanfang standing aside, so he quickly got up and sat down. At this time, Peach Blossom happened to see it, and she immediately called the army out, and she said, "The army comes to the outhouse to eat, let my sister-in-law sit there." ”

The army got down the slope and said, "Sister-in-law, you sit, you sit down and talk." ”

Li Yanfang was not polite, sat on the bench and said, "Uncle, aunt, let's talk while eating, your nephew will discuss something with you in a while." Liqiang, tell your uncle and aunt. ”

"What the hell is going on? Such a god-wrenching chatter? Aunt Liu asked with a smile.

Sun Liqiang explained: "Oh, that's the case, isn't our team disbanded? Those animals also have to be dealt with, my father said that the mule in our team is good, just four years old, it is the time to live, this mule Uncle I also know, right? ”

Liu Laocun nodded and said, "Yes, that mule is indeed fat and strong, and it is a good animal." ”

"So I want to buy it, with it it saves people and effort, even if I have three or dozens of acres of land, I don't have to worry about farming." Sun Liqiang said.

Liu Laocun said: "That's true, but this animal has to be raised well, not horse paste, and it needs to be fed." ”

Sun Liqiang smiled and said, "Uncle, why did you forget?" There is my father, my father is an old breeder, what are you afraid of. ”

Sun Changjin also smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, I can just do the work of raising." ”

"Such a big animal must not be cheap, right?" Aunt Liu interjected and asked.

Sun Liqiang replied: "Uncle Danian said that the ones in the team should be sold cheaply, and they brought a set of farm tools such as plows, rakes, and cocoons, for a total of 560 yuan. ”

"Huh? Do you have to spend so much money? Shang Meiying asked in surprise.

Li Yanfang pouted and said, "Mom, what is this?" Not expensive, not expensive. ”

Liu Laocun also said: "It's not expensive, but it's not a small amount, and it's probably very difficult to come up with such a lot of money at once." ”

"Why don't I call you and my aunt here? Let's take a good look at the total. Sun Liqiang further explained: "I have a lot of family, and I was divided into 12 acres of land at once, but the main labor force for work is only me and my father, and my father is also old, and the strength will definitely not be successful, but we have to plant this land no matter what, and we have to plant it well, we can't make outsiders laugh at us." Uncle and aunt, although your family has a few acres less land than ours, you don't have labor, do you? Uncle I am an old cocoon again, so that the livestock farming is the most proficient, hehehe, I can't do it, I can buy the strength to do it. In the future, this livestock will be handed over to my father and uncle, as for the shares, I have also discussed with your nephew and daughter-in-law, I have a lot of land, we will give 300 yuan, and you have less land, 260 yuan, will it be successful? Uncle and aunt. ”

The two of them were very clear or shrewd in their calculations, and they made it impossible to bargain.

"Success is success." Liu Laocun secretly glanced at his wife, and seeing that Liu Qiaoxian's face was not reacting, he sighed and said: "Alas, when my family divides dividends at the end of the year every year, it will not be more than 200 yuan in a year. ”

"Shall I say more?" Peach Blossom interjected in the outhouse.

Liqiang said: "Of course, my brother and sister can say whatever they want." ”

Peach Blossom said: "Can we count naughty children in this stock?" He is a man's land, and he is a strong laborer. ”

"This ......" Sun Liqiang glanced at Li Yanfang. Li Yanfang continued: "I'm afraid it's hard to say, why don't you let him count half a stock as a success?" ”

Peach Blossom said again: "What kind of half a stock is it?" I didn't mean to compete, the land of our two families together is only six acres and six points and four centimeters, if it really doesn't work, my family is not bad for the twenty yuan, Brother Liqiang, your family is 280 yuan, and my family is also 280 yuan, so it's always okay, right? ”

Sun Liqiang was about to say something more, but Shang Meiying said in advance: "Okay, okay, our two families can't talk about who suffers and who makes cheap, just do what we originally said, our family has 300 more land, and your uncle's family has 260 yuan, even the naughty ones are counted." That's it. ”

Sun Liqiang and Li Yanfang didn't say anything, and stared at each other for a while. Peach Blossom said: "Don't mind, auntie, I still have this opinion, this money is half of our two families on average, and it will ...... in the future."

"I agree with Peach Blossom's opinion, so let's leave it at that." Without waiting for Peach Blossom to finish speaking, Liqiang's daughter-in-law hurriedly found a step down the ladder, otherwise I am afraid that this matter will not be discussed.

Although Sun Changjin was very dissatisfied with his son and daughter-in-law's small abacus, he knew his daughter-in-law's temperament, and the one who took advantage of the advantage and did not suffer losses must be her mastermind, but what could he say as an old man? Just silently bowed his head to eat.

Liu Qiaoxian saw that Old Man Sun was on fire in her heart, she smiled, and thought: It's nothing to suffer a little loss by yourself, and besides, it's not with outsiders, who calls her family all old, weak, sick and disabled? In the future, when you farm and have livestock, you don't have to worry about being tired and dying of work like today.

Liu Qiaoxian said: "This matter is decided according to what Peach Blossom said, you have to worry more about buying livestock, Liqiang, I can't do any work in this sick seedling, and in the future, we will have to trouble Brother and Liqiang to take care of it a little hard." ”

"Auntie, what are you talking about? What is not taken care of? Sun Changjin said.

Shang Meiying also continued: "Yes, when did our two families separate you and me?" Don't say these unfamiliar words, let's all hurry up and eat, don't mind that the food is cold. ”

Sun Liqiang followed the sentence again, which made Liu Qiaoxian a little embarrassed, and he urged: "Uncle and aunt, Uncle Danian can say it, there are many people who are staring at this mule to buy it, if we want it, we will get the money together as soon as possible, and we will have to hand it over the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." ”

Liu Qiaoxian hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, I'll get enough money to get it." ”

The matter of buying shares and livestock has finally been discussed. After eating, Sun Lijuan said that it was sent to Aunt Liu'er's family, but it was sent to Aunt Liu'er's house, she looked back and saw that no one was following, so she took out a wad of money from her pocket, she said to Liu Qiaoxian: "Auntie, this is one hundred and eighty yuan, that's all I have, you use this mat to buy shares first, it's not enough to find it, and then we will find a way to spend it later." ”

"Juan'er, how can we spend your money? You don't have to worry about us, we have a little at home, and then find someone else's house to borrow, it is estimated that we can make up enough, my family feeds two pigs, sell one first and then return it to others, the day when you use the money is still ahead, no, no. Aunt Liu said that she would not accept the money.

Peach Blossom also said: "Sister Lijuan, you have a child and you haven't found a job, and you definitely don't have enough money, so we can't ask for this money." I'm going to go to my mother's house with Ming'er, and it's enough to borrow some from my mother. ”

When Sun Lijuan heard the words of her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, her face immediately showed an unhappy look, she said: "Peach Blossom, are we two good sisters?" Auntie, do you still recognize this girl? If you don't take this money, I won't be your relative in the future, and I'll never come again. ”

"This ......" The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are all out of line, and they are stunned to poke at the house without rhyme. Sun Lijuan took the opportunity to stuff the money into Liu Qiaoxian's hand, she smiled and said, "Auntie, this money is a loan from me, and you will pay it back when you sell the pigs?" ”

Liu Dajun impatiently came out of the house and said, "Don't you fight anymore, didn't her brother say that the team is urgent?" Let's use this money first, and then pay her back when we have it later. ”

Peach Blossom glared at him and said, "You're welcome!" ”

"What will you and Xiaobao do if they spend money in the future?" Aunt Liu still refused.

Lijuan hurriedly said, "Oh, auntie, don't worry about me and Xiaobao, I have a way, besides, my uncle-in-law has already arranged for me, I am working in a transformer factory in the city, and I just went to work as an apprentice, sixty-seven yuan a month, in addition to employee benefits and bonuses, it adds up to eighty or ninety yuan a month, and I will earn more than 100 yuan after three months." ”

"Is that so? Earn a lot, that's good. When do you go to work? Aunt Liu asked.

Lijuan replied: "It's soon, you can go to work in the foreign calendar year at the latest." ”

"Sister Lijuan, it's still early, let's go to the back room and sit down and talk." Peach Blossom said to her mother-in-law again: "Mother, you can put the money on hold and come over." ”

"Okay, you guys talk first, and I'll come over in a while." Liu Qiaoxian returned to her house with the money in her hand, and now the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground, and she happily said to her wife: "Lijuan, this girl, what do you say?" It's really closer than kissing her daughter, and she is always so considerate. ”

Liu Laocun smiled and said, "Well, this time, it's okay, you don't have to be naughty to make up enough money." ”

"Yes, I'll give it to Liqiang early tomorrow morning." Liu Qiaoxian looked out the window and said, "I want to tell the naughty child about the shares." ”

Liu Laocun urged: "If you want to go here, hurry up, don't mind that the sky is getting darker and darker, and the naughty child may also have to sleep." ”

"Okay, you can go to bed and rest, I'll go now." Liu Qiaoxian stepped out of the back room.
