Hearing her say that, Huo Changgen felt even more reluctant to do it.
He looked at the brigade leader, then at Li Xiangyun.
"Xiangyun, if it really doesn't work out, let them stay at home for another two months. They can leave after the food is distributed, okay?"
Li Xiangyun was furious. Had this old man been cursed?
Has your brain been spun out of control?
Even though his elder brother said so, he still wanted to keep the man.
Li Xiangyun even wanted to go up and hit him.
Upon hearing her second brother's words, Huo Changlan realized there might be a chance, and immediately said with a wry smile, "Second brother, look at the three of us, mother and daughters, we have nothing. What are we going to do if we move there all at once? That old house leaks here and there, how are we going to live there?"
Yun Ningyan was speechless. Was her father-in-law really not out of his mind?
The captain has already spoken, why would he still want to keep the person here?
Why don't we take this opportunity to get rid of them quickly?
This is a huge burden.
Huo Junshan and his brothers had already packed all the luggage for Huo Changlan and her daughter.
We're just waiting to send them over together.
Huo Changgen was still dawdling, he was also in a bit of a dilemma, the girl was his own sister, and the sister who had saved his life.
He then looked at Li Xiangyun: "Xiangyun, could you please clean up the old house first before letting people move in?"
Li Xiangyun has completely lost her temper this time.
She slammed her hand on the table angrily: "Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, pack up your father's things and send them over too!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the group quickly went to get Huo Changgen's things.
The brigade leader was also very annoyed. She got married just fine, but she even angered her mother to death.
And so, we came back again.
We can't just ignore it; we can't just watch people starve to death.
"Alright! Huo Changgen, stop fooling around! Let's go, let's go together and take your aunt and cousin's things with us. See if there's anything we need to pack, and we'll figure out how to pack it!"
"Changlan, if you stay here any longer, we won't give you any food. If you behave yourself, we might be able to help you out before the food is distributed."
Aunt Guihua was also very annoyed with Huo Changlan. He was a perfectly normal person, but he had to cling to others to survive.
All I do is cause trouble for others every day.
She tugged at the captain's sleeve, her meaning clear: she wanted the mother and her daughters to move out immediately.
None of them were content to stay put.
Regardless of whether she agreed or not, Li Xiangyun had already agreed that the person would move out once the weather warmed up and the New Year was over.
"Huo Changgen, tell me, you want to live in that old house with your sister, right? Boss, you're taking your father's things! Let's go."
"good!"
When Huo Changgen saw that his wife was serious, he panicked. If he moved into the old house, wouldn't the villagers laugh at him to death?
He can't afford to lose face like that.
Seeing that he had packed all his things, he had no choice but to say, "Changlan, why don't you move out? Your second brother can't support the three of you here. Your second brother will definitely send you food in the future!"
Huo Changlan never expected that even her second brother couldn't keep her in the end. If he took his two daughters to the old house, wouldn't they have to do chores, cook, and go to work every day?
Seeing that she was still hesitating, the team leader immediately made the decision: "Let's go! We have to move it today, or we'll become a laughing stock!"
Everyone carried their luggage and followed each other toward the old house.
Huo Changlan didn't dare to cause any more trouble. She didn't dare to make a scene in front of her older brother, because if he got angry, he would definitely ignore her.
Yao Qingqing and Yao Tingting were also furious, but even their mother couldn't do anything about it, so what could they do to stay?
I had no choice but to go to the old house with the others.
A group of people carrying luggage, followed by others, went; almost the entire Huo family went.
The rest of the group followed behind, watching the spectacle unfold.
Seeing that there was something to see, some people followed the Huo family to their old house.
Huo Changlan looked at the old house in front of her, she was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
This old house has been abandoned for many years and now looks dilapidated.
The house was covered in cobwebs, and Huo Changlan didn't want to live there after just looking at it.
This house is really too dilapidated.
"Big brother, second brother, this house is uninhabitable! Look how dilapidated it is!"
Huo Changgen looked at the old house and felt a pang of sadness. It was in this old house that his sister had saved his life.
His mother also passed away in this house.
He opened his mouth as if to speak, but Li Xiangyun, who was beside him, glared at him.
Well, I guess I'll have to help him out more from now on, since I'm the second brother!
The captain said, "You guys do your jobs and clean up this place. You can stay here tonight, and we'll see what needs to be repaired tomorrow. We'll fix it up properly then."
Everyone started working, some sweeping the floor, others cleaning the house.
Yun Ningyan stood with Li Xiangyun, and neither of them moved.
Huo Changlan wanted to try again, because the house really couldn't be lived in: "Second sister-in-law, could you see if we could stay here for the time being, and then move in once the house is repaired?"
Li Xiangyun glanced at her and said, "You wish! At home I serve you every day, but here you all eat your own food!"
Li Xiangyun laughed and called to her sons, "Eldest son, second son, third son, you must clean the house up and make it habitable today. We can't do anything else!"
The brothers started working. Huo Junshan took two people to cut wood first, while the others stayed behind to clean up.
A few people went and cut down some trees, then went and gathered some thatch.
In some places, the roof leaks and needs to be covered with thatch.
The door inside the house is a bit broken and needs to be repaired.
Huo Guodong and Huo Guoliang have already gone to get the tools.
Once the tools were brought in, everyone divided the work clearly, and in just half a day, the house was almost completely repaired.
The kang (heated brick bed) in the house is an old relic and still usable. Repairing the rest of the house is relatively easy.
The kitchen stove also needs to be repaired.
With so many people helping, it was done very quickly.
They went back for lunch and came back in the afternoon, and repaired the house before dark.
The brigade leader and Huo Changgen each delivered half a bag of grain that night.
The brigade leader said, "You can eat this food first. When you run out, go to the brigade headquarters to borrow more. You can pay it back when you earn work points! Work hard from now on, and you won't starve. Otherwise, we won't be able to save you!"
After everyone else left, only Huo Changlan, Yao Qingqing, and Yao Tingting remained in the old house.
Huo Changlan was furious. He had originally planned to eat and drink for free at his second brother's place.
With her older brother showing up this time, she couldn't stay there any longer.
Fortunately, the house has been repaired.
Even if they move out, my second brother can't just abandon them.
"Qingqing, Tingting, let's go gather some firewood first, otherwise we won't have dinner tonight."
Yao Qingqing and Yao Tingting didn't want to go, but their mother had spoken, so they had no choice but to go.
They also have to cook for themselves in the evening.
