Zhang Fengying always felt sad and guilty.
Jiang Henian squatted not far away with his back to the others and eavesdropped. When he heard Zhang Fengying and He Zhensheng asking He Jinshan to move back to the He family, he felt a pang in his heart.
She held the wheat motionless, her ears standing straight up.
He Jinshan saw it out of the corner of his eye, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he deliberately waited for a while before speaking.
"I've applied to the team leader and will live in the thatched house at the foot of the mountain from now on."
"That's impossible! What are you doing living in that shabby place? There's not even a stove."
He Zhensheng frowned in disagreement. "Don't worry about your second sister-in-law. The utility room next to the west room has been cleaned up and can be lived in for the time being. When this work is done, we will build another room in the west room before winter comes, and it will be for you and your wife to live in."
He looked at He Shoucheng, who had been silent the whole time, and said, "Second brother, do you have any objections?"
"Now that my third brother is back, of course he wants to live at home." He Shoucheng nodded repeatedly, then looked hesitant. "However, Lijuan is going to give birth in the spring."
"My west room is already small, and there's not enough space for three children. My mother and grandmother also suggested adding another room. If we build two rooms at once, I'm afraid the family will be stretched..."
He glanced at He Jinshan, who showed no reaction, and made up his mind. He glanced at his motionless right leg and said what he had prepared long ago.

Old Mrs. He was originally heartbroken to see her little grandson, whom she hadn't seen for ten years, become like this. When she heard He Shoucheng mention the cancellation of the engagement, she became angry again.
Grandma He's family was a big landlord in the next town. When the criticism and denunciation campaign was at its worst a few years ago, all the houses, fields and property of her family were gone, and the family was almost destroyed. Only three people from her eldest brother's family were left, and they lived a hard life with their heads down and the minimum work points.
Because she had married decades ago, Old Lady He was not affected, but since then she has attached great importance to money and held it tightly in her hands, only giving a little to her second grandson He Shoucheng.
The Jiang family's cancellation of the engagement not only made her extremely angry due to the rumors, but more importantly, it was because of the shameless Jiang family!
Not only did he miss 80 yuan of betrothal gifts, he even kept the remaining 100 yuan and pretended to be dead and didn't return it!
