Chapter 60 There's trouble
"Wife, did I see my cousin from my aunt's family at the farm today?" Gu Yan sighed.
"Cousin? How many children does my aunt have? Why would her cousin come to the village?" Li Wanqing had a good impression of Gu's aunt.
But she had never seen any of their children.
"My aunt married in Chenjiazhuang, which is more than ten miles away from here. My uncle's name is Chen Dagen, and they have three children, two sons and one daughter.
The eldest son is Chen Dazhuang, the second son is Chen Erzhuang, and the third is a daughter named Chen Lanzi.
The one working at the farm today is Dazhuang. By the way, Dazhuang has already married. I think her name is Chuntao." Gu Yan introduced the situation of Gu's younger sister's family.
"I saw my aunt-in-law when we got married. It seemed that my uncle-in-law and their three children all bought it?" Li Wanqing thought about it carefully.
"Well, my uncle and the others didn't go." Gu Yan said.
"Are your family and your aunt's family not getting along? Otherwise, why didn't your uncle go to your wedding?" Li Wanqing immediately thought that there was a conflict between the two families.
“There’s no conflict, but maybe my uncle thinks we’re all hunters in the mountains and have no future, so his relationship with our family has been distant over the years.
But he has a good relationship with his second uncle and others in town.
They are just relatives, daughter-in-law, you don't need to worry too much. "Gu Yan is not close to anyone in his family, so he doesn't care about his aunt or uncle.
"Okay, I understand." Li Wanqing was very satisfied with Gu Yan's attitude.
Some people may think that Gu Yan is alone, but in Li Wanqing's opinion, this kind of Gu Yan is the best.
Li Wanqing was also impatient to deal with all the aunts and uncles.
"My uncle-in-law is a man who never gets up early unless there is something to gain. I guess my aunt-in-law should be here tomorrow.
"Alas, I hate trouble, do you believe it? If my aunt knows, it means my father will know soon." Gu Yan lay on the kang with his back and sighed.
"Puff!" Li Wanqing couldn't help but burst out laughing. "What? Are you afraid your father will ask your second brother to come to the farm?"
"It's not just my second brother. Just wait and see. Knowing that we have bought the farm, my parents, my aunt and the others, and my second uncle will all want to take advantage of us.
I'm just a nuisance. No one has ever helped me when I was in trouble. Why should I let them take advantage of me now?
Call me selfish or vindictive, but I don't want to have any conflicts of interest with them," Gu Yan said.
"I think what you did is very good. They say repay evil with kindness, but I just don't think that's right.
Others have wronged me, and I'm lucky enough not to retaliate if I have the ability. Why should I repay evil with kindness?
This person has always believed in "If you respect me one foot, I will respect you ten feet. If you bully me once, I will remember you forever." Li Wanqing turned over and said to Gu Yan.
"How about we be made for each other?" Gu Yan had long discovered that he and Li Wanqing had very similar ideas.
Both of them are people who may not repay a favor, but will definitely seek revenge.
To put it bluntly, they are all a bit selfish.
"Tsk, stop talking about useless things. What are you going to do now?" Li Wanqing said.
"No big deal. I told Dazhuang that this is your dowry. I will say the same thing no matter who comes." Gu Yan said.
Gu Yan's words were not a lie. The money used to buy the farm was indeed earned by Li Wanqing from selling medicinal herbs.
The title deed to the farm was indeed written in Li Wanqing's name.
"Why are you so mean? If you say that, won't they all come to bother me?" Li Wanqing hit Gu Yan.
“No, no matter who comes, I will tell them that this farm is so small and cannot support so many people.
If they want to come and work like everyone else, that's fine, but if they want to be the boss, I have plenty of them." Gu Yan said.
Li Wanqing always felt that things would not go so smoothly, but she didn't say anything.
It’s too early to say anything now, let’s wait and see.
She didn't say anything, so Gu Yan continued, "Fortunately, they don't know that we have another farm in Qingshui Town, and the farm in Qingshui Town is twice as big as this one.
This farm is small, only fifty acres of land, so even if we hire people, we won’t need many.”
Li Wanqing also agreed with this. Although they were not afraid of Gu Chongshan and others causing trouble, the saying still applies: less trouble is worse than more.
The two chatted casually and slowly fell asleep.
Originally, Gu Yan wanted to go to Qingshui Town the next day, but now he had to wait for Gu Xiaogu to come, so he didn't go.
However, he went to the town as soon as he got up in the morning and bought a lot of pork from the pork shop. Not only pork, he also went to several pork stalls and bought offal from several pigs.
Ever since he had eaten Li Wanqing's braised pig offal, Gu Yan had been thinking about it, but he was always busy and had no time.
While I have some time today, I'll satisfy my craving.
"Why buy so much meat? This must be four or five pigs, right?
"The same goes for pig offal. Have you bought up all the pig offal in town?" Li Wanqing said, looking at the high pile of meat on the carriage.
"I bought pork from five pigs. Didn't you say you wanted to smoke some bacon and sausages? So I bought some extra.
I bought too much pig offal without paying attention. When the owners of the pork stalls saw that I was buying pig offal, they all rushed to sell it to me.
And they were very cheap, so I couldn't control myself and bought them all.
But wife, I'll wash these pig offal myself, so you don't have to get involved. You just need to help me stew them, hehe." At the end, Gu Yan scratched his head and laughed foolishly.
There was nothing Li Wanqing didn't understand: "You're craving braised meat, right? Come on, let's go wash the pig's offal now, and I'll braise it for you when we come back."
There were no outsiders in the yard. Li Wanqing quickly put all the pork into the space and went to the river with Gu Yan to wash the pig offal.
There was a lot of offal from more than a dozen pigs. Gu Yan and Li Wanqing still had half of it to wash when Gu Xiaogu arrived.
Gu Xiaogu came with her children, including her daughter-in-law Chuntao.
They first arrived at the house where Li Wanqing and her family lived, but no one was at home.
"Mom, there's no one at home and the door is locked." Chen Lanzi ran into the yard first and then ran back.
"Cousin, I hope you haven't gone to the fields. I'll go check it out." Chen Dazhuang said.
"Your cousin went to the fields, so your cousin-in-law should be there too, right? They wouldn't have left, right?" said Aunt Gu.
"Oh, that's really possible. They didn't know we were coming today?" Chen Lanzi slapped her forehead in annoyance.
"What should we do now? Should we go back?" Chen Erzhuang asked reluctantly.
"Why don't I go ask the village head?" said Chen Dazhuang.
"What are you doing? You can't just come in here." Chunxia had just gone to feed the chickens. When she saw someone entering the yard, she immediately ran over to ask.
