Chu Lifang looked at Chu Tian in surprise, and saw that he was nodding repeatedly to the two elders, and kept saying, "Yes, yes, I know, I will count the money", and she couldn't help laughing.

"Xinxin, can I take you outside for a walk?"

Xinxin's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously, "Okay..."

Xiao Xinxin hasn't been out for more than 20 days since her mother gave birth...

Finally, when Chu Jun and Chu Min came to see Yao's mother, Mrs. Chu directly asked for various seeds. Chu Jun was still in shock about the old lady beating Liu Zhaodi the day before, so he immediately promised that he would go back and select some good seeds for them. The next morning, Chu Jun delivered the seeds...

In the following days, when Chu Tian was building the house, Old Lady Chu, along with Yao's mother and Chu Lifang, worked on the open space nearby to till the soil and plant vegetables. They planted eggplants, beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, pumpkins, winter melons, and a small area of ​​spinach, Chinese cabbage, and nepeta that could be harvested quickly...

Of course, it was not just the three of them who were growing vegetables. Zhang Ping was also tidying up the land on the vacant lot of Chu Min's house next door. During these days of slack farming, many women in other families took advantage of this time to grow vegetables in their own vegetable gardens.

"Auntie, I heard you're growing vegetables recently? I have a lot of chive roots in my field, would you like some?"

Aunt Wu, who lived next door, came over from time to time to chat with Old Lady Chu starting from the second day after she arrived. Old Lady Chu and Yao's mother both liked Aunt Wu's straightforwardness, so the atmosphere between them was pretty good.

Old Mrs. Chu clapped her hands in delight. "Oh, that's great, auntie. Thank you so much for thinking of my darling grandson!"

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Hey, it's just some leek roots, not really anything special..."

After a pause, he asked again, "By the way, Auntie, does Chu Tian want to raise chickens? I heard today that the brigade next door is hatching chicks recently. If you want one, you need to order it in advance!"

"Yes, yes! Auntie, how do we decide? Oh, and how many chickens can your family raise? In my hometown, we raise chickens based on the number of people. We can only raise one chicken for every three people!"

Old Mrs. Chu was very upset. How could she forget such an important thing? Chicken butt bank, it must be maintained! Hearing this, she nodded repeatedly.

Yao's mother interrupted, "We in Xinjiang also charge by the number of people, but we can raise one if two people..."

"Chu Tian and his family are now a family of four, so they can just raise two!"

Aunt Wu nodded and said, "It's just that Pingping was born, otherwise they would have had to raise only one..."

Mrs. Chu was overjoyed when she heard this and hurriedly asked Aunt Wu, "Aunt, when are you going to order the chicks? Can you take me with you then?"

Aunt Wu smiled and nodded. "Why not? I'm going there tomorrow morning. I'll call Aunt and Big Sister then!"

Upon hearing this, Yao's mother hurriedly said, "I won't go tomorrow. I've been here for quite some time, and Xiujuan's father is the only one at home. I plan to go early tomorrow morning to see my son who is an apprentice at the steel factory, and then take a bus back!"

Mrs. Chu was very disappointed when she heard this. "Ah, you're going back tomorrow? Maybe in a few days? My wife Lifang and I will miss you so much..."

Yao's mother smiled and said, "Lifang is such a good girl. She's polite, can write and do math, and she's pretty. Any young man who marries her in the future will be blessed!"

Yao's mother did not lie to Old Lady Chu. After spending these days with Chu Lifang, she really found that the girl was good. She was excellent in both temperament and other aspects. Not only did she get along well with her two daughters, but Xinxin was also very close to her.

It’s okay for adults, sometimes they make mistakes, but it’s different for children. Children’s eyes are sharp and they can tell the good from the bad at a glance!

Mrs. Chu smiled when she heard this, "Oh, I'm glad you like it!"

"ah?"

Mother Yao was stunned and didn't understand what Mrs. Chu meant for a while.

Aunt Wu looked around thoughtfully, then tentatively asked Yao's mother, "Sister, how old is your son this year?"

Yao's mother said, "Eighteen!"

Aunt Wu glanced at Old Madam Chu when she heard this. Seeing her smiling face, she was delighted and said, "Then this age is just right!"

Yao's mother was confused, "Huh?"

Aunt Wu pointed at Chu Lifang, who had just emerged from her dugout carrying a bucket of water, and said, "Big sister, look, Lifang is eighteen this year... Don't you have any ideas?"

Mother Yao suddenly realized and turned her head to look at the smiling Mrs. Chu. "I really like Lifang, but, aunt, aunt, is your son willing to let his daughter marry so far away?"

Old Mrs. Chu smiled kindly, "As long as the two children are in love, my son's opinion is not important!"

Yao's mother smiled when she heard this. Everyone tacitly agreed not to bring up the topic again, but they all kept it in mind. Yao's mother planned to meet her son tomorrow and ask him what he thought.

Old Mrs. Chu planned to have a good chat with her granddaughter after Yao's mother left. She felt that Yao Youjun was a really good person. Not only was he an only son, but after spending a few days with him, her mother-in-law could also tell that he was a person who was easy to get along with and had no bad intentions. Although she hadn't seen one of her three daughters, the other two were also pretty good and not the kind of troublesome sisters-in-law.

Moreover, although she had only met Yao Youjun once, she could tell that he respected his grandson very much. She thought that even for the sake of his grandson, he would be nicer to his granddaughter...

In short, if my granddaughter doesn't marry into the Yao family, she may not be able to meet such a good and suitable in-law family in the near future!

After dinner in the evening, Mrs. Chu, who was very perceptive, took her great-granddaughter, granddaughter and two grandsons out for a walk, leaving the Yao family mother and daughter alone to chat about their inner thoughts.

"Xiujuan, what do you think?"

After Yao's mother told Mrs. Chu what she thought, she looked at Yao Xiujuan expectantly, wanting to hear her thoughts!

Yao Xiujuan was stunned, okay? She swallowed hard before asking.

"Mom, you said that grandma has fallen in love with Youjun and wants to marry Lifang to Youjun?"

Yao's mother nodded, "Yeah, yeah!"

Yao Xiuli also opened her mouth in surprise. After a while, she came to her senses and asked, "Why does Grandma Chu like my brother?"

Yao's mother frowned when she heard this. "What do you mean by 'Why do you like your brother?'"

Yao Xiuli hurriedly explained, "What I meant is, Sister Lifang is such a good person, she could definitely be paired with someone better, why did she choose my brother?"

Mother Yao stared and was about to say something when she heard her eldest daughter Yao Xiujuan also speak.

"Yeah, I also think Lifang is a good girl. She's sensible, good-tempered, smart, kind, and patient. I won't mention these things. Just looking at Lifang's appearance, I feel like the friendly forces don't deserve her..."
