The originally shabby yard is now in good shape, and the vegetables planted in the small vegetable garden are green and tender, growing well. The two mother and son dogs brought a group of half-grown chicks, and two snow-white half-grown rabbits, with their long ears erect, looked at the strangers who came into the yard, and suddenly hid, revealing their two long ears. The big black dog in the stable swung its tail, snorted, and looked at the people who came into its territory with displeasure.

The renovated house is still habitable, and smoke is rising from the small kitchen, where someone is cooking.

The few people who came into the yard looked at this well-presented small yard.

Father Cao, who had not been back to the old house for a long time, saw the yard that had changed. He looked at Si'er, whose legs had healed. It was the first time he saw Silang since he separated from Si'er. He felt guilty about Silang.

Chen Zhu looked at the horse in the stable and thought that they didn't even have money to buy a cow. Si'er had bought a horse but didn't send a penny to him. Wu'er had someone send a letter back saying that they had no money. There was only a little silver left at home. He also asked someone to send Wu'er one or two silvers.

The silver was getting less and less. If it continued like this, the little silver in his pocket would be spent in the future. No, he must ask Si'er to send him a few taels of silver every month. Chen Zhu's calculations were very good.

"Please take a seat first." Cao Xiangnan completely ignored his mother's enthusiastic eyes. He came in and saw his mother standing there at a loss, with a little face flushed. He walked over in two or three steps, hugged the child, went into the kitchen, gave the child to Qi Wanfeng, and whispered a few words to Qi Wanfeng.

Behind him followed the two children of Sun Bailian's family. Sun Bailian pulled his two boys over and warned them to be honest and not to make trouble.

"Well, go ahead." Qi Wanfeng patted the child and said.

Chen Zhu was dissatisfied to see Si'er carrying Sun into the kitchen, and did not call his grandmother when he saw him.

He did not think about how he had never had a good face to this grandson when he was in the courtyard. When the children of the first and second wives beat the children of the fourth wife, he not only did not scold the older ones, but always scolded the younger one. Now he was dissatisfied when he saw that his grandson did not call him "Grandma".

Cao Gang was in Cao Xiangnan's yard, and he sat there without moving when he saw the people who came in.

The village chief also saw Cao Gang sitting there, he paused and asked, "I heard that you guys opened a food stall in the town recently, and the business is very good. Is this true?"

"Just to make a living." Cao Gang replied without any expression on his face.

The village chief had a hard time with Cao Gang. When he saw Cao Jia Silang coming out, he said, "Cao Jia Silang, the villagers went to my place and said that you were harvesting vegetables here. Is this true?"

Cao Xiangnan came out and moved a stool for them to sit on. He said "um" to the village chief and replied, "Yes." He sat down next to Cao Gang and looked at the people who came to him calmly.

Facing his father's guilty eyes, he also silently looked away. If he had known this would happen, why did he do it? If it was Cao Silang who was waiting in bed for money to treat his illness today, these people would not even dare to approach the door of this yard. They have moved here for so long, but they have never seen this father come to the door to say hello.

They had been here before, and the purpose of the village chief's visit was self-evident.

Hearing that this was true, the village chief put on his airs and said in the tone of an elder, "Many people in the village grow vegetables, and it is a waste if the vegetables in the fields rot. I am the head of the village, and I should help the villagers to come to your place. We are all from Caojia Village, brothers from the same ancestors, and we are all family. You can buy the vegetables from your stall from everyone in the village, and it doesn't matter if it is cheaper."

"I am just a small trader, just to make ends meet. I don't need many vegetables every day. The vegetables on the stall are originally bought by people from the same village. There are so many families growing vegetables in the village. I can't buy all the vegetables for so many people by myself. Don't you think so, village chief?" Cao Xiangnan thought this old man was ridiculous. He was asked to collect vegetables in the village. Does that mean the vegetables he collected are not collected by the village?

Now he comes to the door and forces all the vegetables in the village to be sold to him? What a joke.

"Ageng, I think what Cao Jia Silang said is also reasonable. He bought these vegetables in the village. He is just a food stall, so it is possible that one person bought all the vegetables in the whole village?" Li Zheng was also fair. His heart was naturally biased towards Cao Xiangnan. Who made him eat so many good things here recently.

The village chief was unhappy when he heard this, and his face was very long. His original intention of coming here was that since you bought from Chen Hong and a few others, you should also buy some from other people in the village, and not just from those few families.

Cao Adie sat there in silence and did not say anything. As a father, he had nothing to help this son at the beginning. Now seeing that Si'er was living a good life here, he was relieved.

"Silang, we also grow a lot of vegetables at home. If you want to buy vegetables, why don't you come back and buy from your family or others first?" Chen Zhu was anxious. He followed Si'er because he wanted to get money from him. He always had to find a way to get money.

There were vegetables at home, but they were definitely not so abundant that they had to sell them. But even if he didn't have vegetables here, his uncles and aunts also grew a lot of vegetables at home. As a mother, he could help Si'er harvest vegetables in the village. In this way, those uncles and aunts would be more polite to him and flatter him, and he could still get money from Si'er.

"Mom, if I remember correctly, the vegetables you grow there are not enough for your family to eat, where can you sell them?" Cao Xiangnan didn't know what his mom was up to yet, so he directly exposed her good plan.

Chen Zhu was slapped in the face, and said a little embarrassedly, "We don't have any at home, but your uncles and aunts grow a lot. You buy from outsiders but not from your family members. You are not, not..."

You are not helping outsiders but not your family members.

"Okay!" As soon as Cao's father heard what his wife was up to, he interrupted him.

Chen Zhu shut up, glared at Si'er, and didn't dare to say anything.

"Village chief, Lord Li Zheng, since you are able to come to my place today, I cannot make things difficult for you. Let's put it this way, if I need more vegetables, I will collect them with other villagers in the village when the time comes." Cao Xiangnan was relieved when he saw that it was almost done.

He originally planned to collect vegetables in the village later, fearing that Chen Hong's vegetables would not be enough for him, and it would take some time to plant them again. It's just that now these people came to his door and made such a fuss, he felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't block the road now.

"That's good, that's good, we are all family, just ask when it's time to harvest, there are many people in the village who grow vegetables..." The village chief said something else later, and his words were full of sighs.

Cao Xiangnan sent everyone who came to his place out. The village chief and Li Zheng walked in front, and Cao's father and mother walked behind. Chen Zhu glanced at his fourth son. He wanted to open the door and ask him for money, but it was not easy to open the door now, so he had to give up.

The village chief and Li Zheng went out, taking the people outside with them, and saw a large group of people leaving in a mighty manner. Chen
