Chapter 245: The Compound
Niu Laifu didn't care that Niu Fugui was chasing him behind and shouting, and took Li Yao's hand and went home.
Li Yao is the first time to come to Niu Laifu's home.
Niu Laifu's house is a large courtyard built of blue bricks, and there are many houses, although it looks a little old because it has been built for a long time, but it can make people look special from the number and area of the houses.
Niu Laifu's family members are also a lot, he has four sons, all of whom are not separated, his second son and third son took their daughter-in-law to the town to do some small business, but several grandchildren were thrown at home, plus the population of the big house and the four rooms, the children and grandchildren and the little great-grandson are added together, there are more than 20 people living in this compound, which can be described as a big family in Niujia Village.
Niu Laifu's eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law are now mainly busy at home with 30 acres of land, Niu Laifu has more land at home, but there are also many grandchildren.
The four sons and their wife planted a few acres of mulberry trees in the village, raised several batches of silkworms every year, and made a lot of money selling silk.
In addition, Niu Laifu's second and third sons can also earn a lot of money by doing business every year, so the status of the 'richest man' in Niu Laifu's village has not been shaken.
As soon as Li Yao entered the compound, she saw a lively scene, with men carrying sacks, women washing clothes, children playing, and young daughters-in-law holding newborn babies coaxing.
Seeing Niu Laifu leading Li Yao in, everyone first shouted Niu Laifu, and then looked at Li Yao curiously.
"Huh? Isn't this Erni? What's wrong with Erni, are you still crying? A young woman who was washing clothes looked at Li Yao and asked, and Li Yao recognized this person as Niu Yuhe, Niu Laifu's fourth daughter-in-law.
At this time, Li Yao's eyes were still red, and she looked like she had just cried.
"It's not that I'm worried about her parents." Niu Laifu replied for Li Yao.
From Niu Laifu's point of view, Li Yao was not sad because her father and mother were arrested.
Niu Yuhe also heard about Niu Erzhu and Niu Cuihua, after all, this official sent to arrest people, which was a rare thing for their village for many years, and she, as the daughter-in-law of the village, could not know about this matter.
She had some feelings in her heart, Niu Erzhu's couple didn't know what virtues they had accumulated in their previous lives, and they often abused Erni on weekdays, something really happened to this person, Erni still thought about the pair of fathers and mothers, if she had such parents, she would have hated them to death, thinking so, Niu Yuhe glanced at Li Yao quite complicatedly.
This kid is too honest......
However, Niu Yuhe didn't dwell on Li Yao for too long, she knew that her father-in-law had gone to Niu Fugui's house to deal with this matter before, and she was also a little curious about the outcome of the matter at this time, so she looked at Niu Laifu again and asked:
"By the way, Dad, you went to Brother Fugui's house, what did they say?"
Niu Yuhe is not very old, and he looks like he is in his thirties at most, but because he married Niu Laifu's fourth son, he and Niu Fugui became the same generation.
Niu Laifu was still a little angry when he thought of Niu Fugui's family at this moment, he shook his head with a dark face and said: "Don't mention it, I won't care about that family's affairs in the future, they will come to me in the future, and you don't let that family enter the door." ”
As he was talking, Niu Laifu swept to Li Yao, and remembered that Li Yao was also Niu Fugui's granddaughter, so he changed his words at the moment: "Except for Erni." ”
The people in the courtyard looked at each other, and they didn't know what the old man had experienced when he went to Niu Fugui's house, so angry that the old man could say such things.
You must know that Niu Laifu has always been a village that does his best for the villagers, except that some time ago Niu Dasheng sold Niu Qiaoer to Renyazi, the old man was furious and said that he would never see Niu Dasheng and Niu Zhaodi again, this is the second time that he said that he would turn the villagers away and say that he would never care anymore.
But seeing Niu Laifu's calm face, and Li Yao was still here, everyone was afraid of asking anything that made Li Yao sad, so they held back their curiosity and didn't ask more.
Niu Laifu didn't have the heart to explain, he pulled Li Yao and walked into the living room, thought about it, and turned back to Niu Yuhe and said, "The fourth family, what about Xiao An?" Let him come too. ”
Niu Xiaoan is Niu Laifu's ninth grandson and Niu Yuhe's second son, and like Li Yao this year, he is only seven years old.
Niu Laifu thought that he didn't know how to coax the child, so he asked his little grandson to accompany Li Yao to talk, so that the child would be sad and sad all the time.
