"Mei Niang, are you going to cut off relations with us?" Liu Wang asked in disbelief.

Liu Meiniang bowed her head and was silent, obviously acquiescing.

She just wanted to take this opportunity to completely break off the relationship with the Liu family.

"Liu Meiniang, what do you mean by not talking?" Liu Wang's didn't expect that the submissive little girl who was in the Liu family before would now be angry and dare to break off from her.

"Auntie, it literally, in the future, if our two families can not get along, we won't get along, otherwise, Mei Niang will not have a good life in her mother-in-law's house." Liu Meiniang insisted that the people around her, especially those little daughters-in-law, have a deep understanding of what Liu Meiniang said, as the saying goes, the married daughter spills the water, and the in-laws certainly don't want their daughter-in-law to miss her mother's family all the time.

"You unscrupulous descendant, you ......" Liu Wang's gesture was about to hit Liu Meiniang again, and Zhang Li stood directly in front of Liu Meiniang.

"Her eldest aunt, Liu Meiniang is now the daughter-in-law of our Zhang family, and it is not your turn to teach you a lesson." Zhang Li looked at Liu Wang's eyes without fear.

"You, you must be a slut, one day instigating Mei Niang to break off the relationship with our mother's family, don't get along, why is your heart so poisonous?" Liu Wang's indiscriminately targeted Zhang and Li's family.

"Daughter-in-law Liu Shan, Mei Niang is my daughter-in-law, this is her decision, why should she break away from you, if it weren't for your insatiable greed, could you force Mei Niang to this role? I never knew what was wrong with myself, but blindly blamed others, if I were Mei Niang, I would also disassociate myself from you. ”

Zhang Li said everything he wanted to say.

"You are talking nonsense, don't think we don't know, your Zhang family can build a new yard today, most of the money is earned by Mei Niang, you just want to instigate the relationship between Mei Niang and her mother's family, so that Mei Niang will have no support in the future, and can only be used as a cow and a horse for your Zhang family, if it weren't for your short-lived son, how could our Mei Niang be widowed at a young age." Liu Wang's family is now only thinking about how to make more money from Liu Meiniang, so he feels that Liu Meiniang's desire to break off the relationship with them is all provoked by Zhang Li's family.

"Don't spew blood, I never said that Mei Niang and her mother should not have any contact, what you are doing is too chilling, the money in the yard at home is indeed earned by Mei Niang, but I will not be as shameless as you said, since the village chiefs of Baiyang Village and Liuhe Village are here today, then I will ask the village chiefs to be a witness!"

Zhang Li was indeed angry by Liu Wang's words, especially when Liu Wang said that Zhang Jilin had a short life, in fact, in Zhang Li's heart, Zhang Jilin has always been her pride, and she also blamed Zhang Jilin for leaving their family, but she is also proud of Zhang Jilin, so she does not allow anyone except Liu Meiniang to say that Zhang Jilin is not, it is indeed their family who is sorry for Liu Meiniang.

"Witness?" Zhang Youwen asked suspiciously.

Liu Meiniang didn't know what Zhang Li was going to do.

"Yes, my father and fellow villagers are also here today, I, Zhang Li, will make a document here today, from now on, if Liu Meiniang has a favorite person, she will marry freely, and she will no longer be widowed for us Ji Rin, not only that, but half of the property of the Zhang family will be Mei Niang's dowry, and I will treat Liu Meiniang like a daughter in the future, and the Zhang family will be Mei Niang's maiden family in the future."

As soon as Zhang Li's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, everyone was shocked and puzzled, but Liu Meiniang was moved.

In this era, although widows can remarry, people are not tolerant of widows at all, widows are scolded to death if they remarry, and Zhang Li openly supports her remarriage, Zhang Li has a lot of courage.

Liu Wang was already dumbfounded, she didn't expect Zhang Li to say such a thing, and actually allowed Liu Meiniang to remarry, and would also give a dowry, so what she said before Zhang Li was not a joke soon? Zhang Jihan agrees with this.

"Zhang Li, have you thought about it?" Zhang Youwen also asked in surprise.

"Village chief, I've been thinking about this for a long time, I've thought about it, I'm going to trouble you to write the paperwork." Zhang Li said sincerely,

"It's all trifles." Now that Zhang Li had already thought about it, Zhang Youwen quickly found someone to bring a pen and paper to write down the paperwork, and Liu Meiniang and Zhang Li drew them one by one.

Liu Wang and Liu Shan stood aside, they didn't expect things to turn out like this, but fortunately, they got ten taels of silver today, so the two of them were ready to slip away quietly.

"Liu Shan, Liu Shan's daughter-in-law, where are you going?" Zhang Youwen's eyes were sharp, and he saw the two people who were about to slip away.

"Mei Niang, don't take today's matter to heart, it's the eldest aunt who is confused, the eldest aunt's house has not been fed yet, and the eldest aunt will go back first." After Liu Wang finished speaking, she and Liu Shan quickly squeezed out of the crowd, she is not a fool, after she really broke off the relationship with Liu Meiniang, where to go to get benefits, of course, it is the best plan.

"How can there be such a good thing, you come to make trouble, and you want to leave when it's over!" Zhang Jihan doesn't scruple about anything now, since Liu Meiniang can dissociate himself from his mother's family, he doesn't have to look at Liu Meiniang's face to give Liu Shan and his wife a good face.

Of course, Liu Shan and his wife did not succeed in escaping, and were all blocked back by the indignant villagers.

"What else do you want?" Liu Wang's looks like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

"Mei Niang's family's losses, don't you compensate!" Zhang Youwen glanced at the two.

"What loss? What did she Liu Meiniang lose!? Liu Wang seemed to have heard a big joke.

"In the past two days, because of you, Liu Meiniang's yard has not risen at all, and I always have to pay for lost work, right?" Zhang Youwen knocked on the cigarette pot in his hand and said.

"I don't know what the lost time fee is!" Liu Wang pretended to be stupid.

"You guys are really embarrassed to be thrown into other villages, hurry up and lose money!" Seeing Liu Shan and his wife like this, Liu Dezhong couldn't hold it on his face, after all, they were all related to each other.

"No money!" Liu Shan stood aside and said confidently.

"Liu Meiniang just gave ten taels of silver, and I returned it to others!" Liu De rebuked loudly.

"That's for us to see the wounds." Liu Wang screamed at the top of his throat.

"Give it back to Liu Meiniang! Otherwise, when I go back to the village, you two will roll me into the ancestral hall!" Liu De was so angry that he smoked.

"Village Chief!" Liu Wang's last struggle is still being made.

"Give Liu Meiniang, and apologize!" Liu Dezhong is going to be angry with two people today, not to mention losing such a big person, his reputation will also be damaged.

"Then enter the ancestral hall!" Liu Dezhong was about to leave after speaking.

"We give, we give!" Liu Wang hurriedly took out the silver and threw it in Liu Meiniang's arms.

The ancestral hall is the most majestic symbol of a village, and there are generally two situations that can enter the ancestral hall, one is the person who has obtained great glory, such as the champion in the examination and become a general, and the other is to make a big mistake, once you enter the ancestral hall, it is not easy to let go. As long as Liu Wang's brain is not bad, he can distinguish the severity.

"Big niece, today's thing is that the eldest uncle and aunt did something wrong, don't worry about us, we are all relatives, Ang." Liu Wang symbolically said two words, but Liu Meiniang did not react.

"I've had something about today, and I'll talk to the two of them when I go back to the village." After Liu Dezhong finished speaking, he also flicked his sleeves and went back.

Liu Wang and Liu Shan glared at Liu Meiniang fiercely and left.

"Mother......" Liu Meiniang looked at Zhang Li and didn't know what to say.

"Silly boy, in my mother's heart, you are no different from your mother's daughter for a long time." Liu Wang cupped the broken hair in Liu Meiniang's ear and said.

The next day, building a new house was on the itinerary as normal.

There was no Liu Shan and Liu Wang to make trouble, and when building the house, there was harmony, everyone talked and laughed, and they worked harder to build.

I didn't do much work in the first two days and went back, Liu Meiniang also promised to settle the salary as usual, and the rural people are very simple, and it is almost impossible to find such a good owner.

Everyone worked hard, and the house was built at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, a month later, the Zhang family's new house was built.

The roof of the new house was sprinkled with green tiles, and the courtyard walls were made of green bricks.

The whole house is very quaint.

During the construction, Liu Meiniang made some changes at the suggestion of Lao Dong.

Liu Meiniang expanded the small courtyard that was originally to be built even more, and each person had a courtyard with three rooms, one bedroom, one living room, and another guest room.

Then a main courtyard was added in the middle, which was also three rooms, one slightly larger was used as a large living room, and the remaining two were the study and entertainment room.

This adds up to a total of six courtyards.

The kitchen and bathroom are built separately in the yard. One on the east side and a little on the west side.

The kitchen looks like one room from the outside, but in fact it is two houses, which are opened up from the middle, inside for cooking and outside for eating.

The bathrooms are designed in a modern squat style, with the tiles on them replaced with marble.

On the other side of the bathroom is the place to take a bath, and Liu Meiniang really can't do the shower head, so Liu Meiniang simply made a bath, but the work of pouring the bath water still has to be done by herself.

There is also a screen in the middle of the bathing place, and the screen is the washing place.

The courtyard where the others lived was close to the main courtyard.

The yard also set aside the location of the garden and the location of the activity, Liu Meiniang specially left a place against the wall, planning to plant pomegranates here in the future, build a shelf with wood on it, wait for the pomegranate to grow, all the vines climb to the shelf, and then build a swing under the shelf, when you have nothing to do, you can sit on the swing and read a book, tease the dog or something, don't be too happy.

However, the cost of building a house far exceeded Liu Meiniang's expectations, mainly because the outside was surrounded by courtyard walls, which required a large batch of green bricks, and Liu Meiniang spent two hundred taels on the blue bricks alone.

Lao Dong took Liu Meiniang's drawings and left without receiving a penny.

However, thanks to Lao Dong, Liu Meiniang had a lot less difficulties when building toilets.

From the design to the decoration of the toilet to the placement of the sewage pipe, Lao Dong is in charge of it alone, and Lao Dong seems to be very interested in the toilet designed by Liu Meiniang. Studied for a long time.

In the end, Liu Meiniang was also very satisfied.

Zhang Dandan, Zhang Li, Zhang Tongtong and others began to visit the courtyard under the leadership of Liu Meiniang.

"Mother, this is the main courtyard, which we use to receive guests."

From the main courtyard to the courtyards where they lived, everyone was excited and amazed.

When they arrived at the latrine, several people were even more surprised.

"Mei Niang, such a good latrine, this ......" Zhang Li covered her mouth and said, she was reluctant to use such a beautiful latrine.

"Mother, look, this toilet is flushed, and after going to the toilet, as soon as you press this, there will be water flowing out, and it will be flushed directly."

Liu Meiniang pointed to the button behind the squatting pit.

"This ......" Zhang Li stretched out his hand and pressed it gently, and the sound of the rushing water startled a few people.

"Sister-in-law, did you come up with this?" Zhang Dandan looked at Liu Meiniang eagerly.

"And Uncle Dong, I can't think of it alone." Liu Meiniang silently threw the pot to Lao Dong.

"Sister-in-law, I want to be as powerful as you when I grow up in the future!"

Zhang Dandan said seriously.

"Then Dandan has to learn to read hard, and when he finishes recognizing words, he will read more books, and there is everything in the book." Liu Meiniang took the opportunity to encourage.

"Will these be in the book?" Zhang Dandan asked.

"Yes, isn't there a sentence that says: there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book." Liu Meiniang touched Zhang Dandan's head and said with a smile.

"Well, sister-in-law, I must study hard."

Zhang Dandan's eyes narrowed into crescents with a smile.

After a round of visits, even Zhang Tongtong's face was not so stinky, and he looked at all this with novelty.

"Sister-in-law, when are we going to move over?" Zhang Dandan asked.

"It's going to take a few more days, and we're packing up the old house these days, and we'll move in a few days after the house is ventilated."

"Mei Niang, how much did it cost to spend such a good house." Zhang Li asked.

"Mother, don't worry, you don't spend much." Liu Meiniang still decided not to tell Zhang Li the actual cost, otherwise with Zhang Li's character, she would definitely not be at ease.

"That's good, that's good, we can make more money." Zhang Li patted Liu Meiniang's hand and said with a smile.

The family was beaming.

"Tonight we will make dumplings and have a good meal." Liu Meiniang clapped her hands and said.

"Okay, I want to eat dumplings." The first person who jumped out and responded to Liu Meiniang was Zhang Dandan.

This little girl, as long as Liu Meiniang says and does things, she is right in her eyes.

Zhang Tongtong watched from the sidelines and still didn't speak.
