Chapter 112 Being Praised
Tian Caihong gritted her teeth and bought two pounds of meat from the butcher stall at the entrance of the village.
"Aunt, your family is very rich now. The wealthy Mr. Li from the town has become your son-in-law. You are not short of money.
Auntie, I'll just cut two pounds of meat. Is that enough for us to eat?"
Tian Caihong grinned, "That's enough."
After saying that, she covered her sore mouth, held the meat in her hand, and quickly walked away with her head down.
The butcher threw the knife into the basket and said, "Huh, what's so great about that? It's just climbing up the rich man Li's ladder... I don't even want to talk to these people.
If you have the guts, move to town and don't live here!"
Tian Caihong paused. She wanted to turn back and explain, but her face was burning with pain and it was difficult for her to open her mouth. She had to lower her head and walk forward.
She calculated the family's accounts, and the more she calculated, the colder she felt.
Rich man Li married Zhang Qiuye in a high-profile manner, giving her money and buying land, but in the end, all of it was brought to the Li family by Zhang Qiuye.
She also sold two acres of land at home and spent a lot of money.
Thinking of this, her heart ached, and she cursed Mr. Li in a low voice as she walked, "Rich people are cunning, everyone knows that you gave away silver and land.
But they don’t know that in the end all these things are returned to your family. You deserve to have no son.”
After saying this, she slapped herself in the face again in frustration. This slap was no big deal, not only her face hurt, but her teeth also hurt. "Pooh, pooh, this is really bad luck.
God bless us Qiuye to have a boy, and in the end, all the things of the Li family will belong to my good grandson."
Tian Caihong came in carrying the meat, and Zhang Defu had already gone to bed to catch up on his sleep.
"Bah, I'm so blind to fall for a thing like you. You're just a bully at home and can't even fart when you meet outsiders."
Tian Caihong then felt unsatisfied and started scolding Zhang Juexia again, "You have no conscience. You really think that you have nothing to do with your parents' family after you get married.
When Qiuye becomes rich and becomes the mistress of the Li family, I'll see how you curry favor with us."
Zhang Juexia sneezed frequently at home, and Wang Guilan asked her with concern, "Xia'er, did you catch a cold? I'll take care of you here, go to the front yard and do your work!"
Everyone in the room looked over with concern. Zhang Juexia felt embarrassed by the stares. "I'll go to the front and boil some water for everyone."
As soon as Zhang Juexia left, the room became lively.
"Auntie, your grandson and his wife are truly amazing. They've only been married for a few months, and they've already built such a spacious house."
"That's right. When I followed him in just now, I thought I had entered some wealthy family."
Wang Guilan laughed heartily at the compliment. "If you don't want to make money now, hurry up and do what my grandson and his wife teach you!"
"Yes, making money is more important. Auntie, we are going to praise your grandson's wife again. She is so capable and can make money.
If anyone marries this kind of woman, they will wake up laughing every day!"
"Bei Xiu deserves to be blessed."
"Is Bei Xiu's leg healed?"
"It's cured, it's cured. Xia'er accompanied me to the county town for treatment. Tomorrow, when spring comes, I won't be lame anymore."
"Look how happy I am! I will enjoy happiness in the future!"
Zhang Juexia boiled some water and brought it over. Everyone drank some water and continued working.
"Bei Xiu's wife, I've finished one. Can you come check it out?"
Wang Guilan gestured to her, "This one is called Auntie, your grandfather Jidong's second daughter-in-law Liu Jinhua."
"Hello, auntie."
Zhang Juexia took Liu Jinhua's purse and examined it carefully. "Auntie, please make the stitches a little finer and more dense. This one is barely acceptable!"
Liu Jinhua was overjoyed, "Oh my goodness, I earned thirty coins in just this little time.
I went home and told my boss about it, but he definitely didn't believe me."
"Golden Flower, don't you see outside? It's already past lunchtime. We're just trying to make money and don't want to go home."
Zhang Juexia took out a pen and paper and registered everything.
"My goodness, Bei Xiu's wife can write?"
“I can write some.”
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is truly the first of its kind in our Yejia Village!"
Zhang Juexia couldn't stand praising the army any more, "Aunts, aunts, sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters, why don't we go home and eat first, and come back after dinner."
"Okay, my kids at home are waiting to eat!"
Everyone left in a rush. Zhang Juexia asked Wang Guilan to stay. "Grandma, don't leave. Big brother and Bei Xiu will be back soon. Let's have dinner together."
As soon as the group left, Ye Beishan and Ye Beixiu came back.
Ye Beixiu bought two large bags of steamed buns and asked, "Are you going to open a steamed bun shop?"
“Saves me the trouble of cooking.”
After seeing this, Liu Mingda also complained, "I just ate steamed buns yesterday. If I eat steamed buns again today, won't I become a steamed bun?"
"Doctor Liu, I also brought back a few dishes from Manfu Restaurant. I'll heat them up and eat them later."
When Liu Mingda heard there were delicious dishes, he said, "Please give me another pot of hot wine. Good wine should be paired with good dishes."
"My dear, if you don't like the buns, you can eat the vegetables. When you leave, ask me to bring the buns to the old house for everyone to eat."
Zhang Juexia understood that Ye Beixiu must have heard their conversation yesterday.
She glanced at Ye Beixiu guiltily, and seeing that he didn't seem to be acting strangely, she smiled and put the buns aside. "Grandma, you heard me, these buns are from Beixiu as a gift to you and Grandpa. I'll let Big Brother carry them for you later."
"well."
Wang Guilan smiled with satisfaction.
The dishes at Manfu Restaurant tasted great and looked better than those at home. Wang Guilan grumbled as she ate, "How much money does this cost!"
Ye Beixiu picked up a piece of tender and soft braised pork and placed it in Wang Guilan's bowl. "Grandma, just eat it with confidence. This dish is a gift from Manfu Restaurant."
Wang Guilan didn't believe it. "A gift? How could it be such a good thing? Bei Xiu, you can't even find an excuse to lie."
"Old lady, let's eat quickly and don't pay attention to these trivial matters. No matter whether this dish is given to you or bought, it is still a gift from your grandson."
Ye Beishan also ate with his mouth full of oil, "It's just milk, just eat it without worry, Bei Xiu, you still don't trust it."
After the meal, Zhang Juexia pulled Ye Beixiu aside and asked, "Why did Manager Wan deliver the food?"
"It's all thanks to the canned hawthorns we gave him. He made some money. You don't know, when I passed by Jiufu Restaurant, their business was booming.
He saw me on the street and wanted to treat me to a meal, but when he saw you weren't there, he asked me to bring the food back."
"What did he say?"
"He told us to send some more rabbits over, and he also asked if you had any other food.
Anyway, what he meant was that if we have something delicious in the future, we must not forget him, or even skip him."
