Xu Haiguo, who had been pushed aside by his elder brother's family, almost lost his temper when he saw the large and small bags that his brother's family had placed on the floor.
It seems this family failed to steal from us and kill us; now they've come to our door with their belongings, intending to seize them by force.
He hadn't wanted to let this family in, but he didn't know what they were up to, so he opened the door.
"Oh dear, our family of four came to the city to look for work, but we don't have a place to stay. Luckily, your house is big enough, so we thought we'd make do with staying here for a while!"
Huang Cuicui seemed oblivious to the dark expressions on her husband's younger brother's and his family of five's faces, and continued talking to herself.
As she spoke, she walked toward an empty sofa next to the living room, leaving mud from her shoes scattered on the floor as she passed.
Her two children didn't even call her name.
He followed her to the other side of the sofa, grabbed the fruit and snacks from the fruit bowl on the coffee table, and lay down on the sofa to show off as if no one else was there.
Fruit peels and snack bags are often left lying around.
In just a short while, the tidy home was ruined by this family.
Xu Zhen seemed oblivious to the impending outburst from his brother's family, and continued confidently.
“Your sister-in-law is right, Xiao Hai. We are brothers by blood, you can’t refuse this small favor!”
As he spoke, he walked straight to the dining table on the other side as if he were at home, picked up the mug on the table, tilted his head back, and drank the water inside in one gulp.
"Hey, why are you using someone else's cup like that!"
Xu Lai was so angry at her so-called uncle's bizarre behavior that she lost her temper.
This mug was specially made by a good friend for her birthday, and it has her photo printed on it.
As soon as boiling water is poured into the cup, her photo will automatically appear on the outside of the cup, which she really likes.
How can she use her private things if an outsider uses them?
Seeing his niece yelling at him, Xu Zhen retorted with some dissatisfaction, "It's just a cup, just wash it!"
Xu Jiangming couldn't bear to see his beloved granddaughter suffer any injustice.
This ungrateful wretch ruined his granddaughter's favorite things in front of the adults in his family, and acted as if it were perfectly normal, which made him even more annoyed.
"Xu Zhen, you're not welcome in our home. You'd better pack your bags and get out!"
Xu Chao, young and hot-blooded, couldn't stand this family any longer. He stood up and tried to throw their luggage out.
But before he could make a move, Song Qiu'e stopped him.
Given this family's character, if Xiao Chao were to throw their luggage out, they would surely cause a huge uproar in her house.
So she coldly replied, "Brother, we don't have any extra rooms for you to stay in!"
There are only four rooms in the house, which is just enough for five people, but it can't accommodate this family that's so dramatic.
Although Xu Haiguo is decisive and efficient in public, he is a very gentle person in front of his family.
He knew what kind of people his elder brother's family was.
I used to think their family was better off than my older brother's, and since my older brother's family lived in the countryside, I didn't have many opportunities to interact with them throughout the year.
Moreover, no matter what, although his older brother wasn't his biological brother, he was still his uncle's child.
So even though he didn't like this family, he still took good care of them.
He didn't even intend to make this family repay the more than 100,000 yuan they had borrowed from home.
This time, however, they really went too far.
After failing to kill his own family, they are now coming to his door to bully his daughter.
Even clay bodhisattvas have a touch of earthiness!
Having spent so many years working on construction sites, he had seen all sorts of people.
You can't use force to deal with this family of scoundrels who are like leeches.
So he adjusted his expression, forced a smile, and said to his elder brother and sister-in-law, "Elder brother and sister-in-law, we really don't have any extra rooms. We can't let your whole family stay in the living room!"
"How about this, you guys go rent a place outside first, and once you've settled down, I'll bring my older brother and Yongqing to work on the construction site together. What do you think?"
The family was about to explode after hearing the first half of Xu Haiguo's sentence, but after hearing the second half, they immediately turned from anger to joy.
Over the years, they have witnessed their younger brother's (uncle's) family buy one house after another in the city and change several cars, each one better than the last.
Isn't all this money earned from construction sites?
As the foreman on the construction site, the younger brother (uncle) could easily make a fortune for the father and son if he was willing to take them along.
Putting aside everything else, I've heard that they can make a lot of money by secretly taking the equipment and steel bars from the construction site out and selling them.
Upon realizing this, Xu Zhen and his family's mood immediately brightened.
Xu Zhen even took out a five-yuan bill from his pocket and stuffed it into his niece's hand.
"Lai Lai, your uncle was really thirsty just now and accidentally used your cup. Here, keep this money and go buy a new one!"
After saying that, he immediately walked to the front door and picked up two pieces of luggage from the ground.
Huang Cuicui, Xu Yongqing, and Xu Qiong quickly picked up the remaining luggage and followed behind Xu Zhen. The family of five walked away happily.
After hearing the elevator doors open and close, Xu Lai and her family looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, we've gotten rid of that ungrateful family!"
Xu Haiguo sighed.
"Well, my dad is still the best. He knows how to use magic to defeat magic!"
Xu Lai gave his father a thumbs up in admiration!
If she tries to confront her uncle's family, they'll make a huge scene and she'll be writing her name backwards!
Xu Haiguo took the lead in closing and locking the door, and then picked up the disinfectant alcohol that was placed in the entryway, spraying it twice on the places the family had touched.
Song Qiu'e also picked up a mop and cleaned the floor they had dirtied.
After the family finished tidying up the living room, Xu Lai led them into the space.
To facilitate management, Xu Haiguo dug a pond of nearly 80 square meters on the far left side of the land near the well and warehouse.
There are only six acres of land in the space, and the land area is limited, so the area occupied by the pond and the poultry and livestock cannot be too large.
Therefore, it was decided to build the chicken, duck, and goose pens, as well as the sheep and rabbit pens, on the far right side of the pond.
The area between the pond and the pens for poultry and livestock was designated as a vegetable garden.
This makes it convenient to water the vegetable garden, and once the seedlings have grown, it's also convenient to feed the excess vegetable leaves to poultry, livestock, fish, shrimp, and crabs.
The manure of poultry and livestock can also fertilize the land.
That's killing three birds with one stone.
