Chapter 284 Go and settle accounts with Li Hongyan



Chen Xiaoying had good intentions. When she returned to the county town, she lay alone in bed at night and began to think about Kou Yajuan.

Fortunately, he met a smart woman, otherwise, this matter would not have passed so easily. At the very least, it would have been a spectacle for others to watch. In a few years, even if Li Hongwei was old, people would still laugh at her.

"What a piece of shit." Thinking of her eldest daughter Li Hongyan, Chen Xiaoying couldn't help gritting her teeth.

She has such a cruel heart. If Kou Yajuan really succeeds, she will alienate the eldest son and his wife, force them to divorce, and make Kou Yajuan her eldest daughter-in-law. Then the whole family will not be well off.

What exactly does Li Hongyan want? If the eldest brother's family can't make a living, what benefit will she get?

After thinking about it over and over again, Chen Xiaoying still couldn't figure it out.

I fell asleep in a daze and woke up the next day to the sound of my granddaughters talking.

Chen Xiaoying enrolled all her grandchildren in summer classes. While the adults were busy at the restaurant, the children went to classes.

"Mom, I also want to sleep at home like my eldest sister. I don't want to go to school." This is the voice of Li Yujie from the third child's family.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your eldest sister got into college, so she can sleep in at home. When you also get into college in the future, you can sleep in as late as you want during the summer vacation." This was the voice of Zhao Xueyan, the third son's wife.

After Li Yutong applied for the college, she had nothing to do. She slept until she woke up naturally every day, then went to every store and also walked around the food factory to check out the situation.

After going through the most intense study period in high school, it was time for her to relax.

When all the noisy noises in the house disappeared and the whole house became quiet, Chen Xiaoying no longer wanted to sleep.

She is used to getting up early.

After washing her face, she thought about it and decided to go find Li Hongyan. She just couldn't swallow this humiliation.

She combed her hair neatly and was about to go out when Li Yutong's door opened: "Grandma, where are you going?"

Li Yutong was always sensitive. When she opened the door and saw her grandmother looking for someone to settle a score, she knew what was going on: "Are you going to look for my aunt?"

Chen Xiaoying did not hide it from her: "Your aunt has gone too far. I can't pretend I know nothing."

Pretending to know nothing was tantamount to ignoring the fact that the eldest brother and his wife were schemed against by her, which made Li Hongyan feel that she could do even more excessive things in the future, and she would not pay any price anyway.

"Grandma, then... I'll go with you." Li Yutong was worried about her grandma going alone. She was so old, what if she got too emotional and something happened? What would she do?

"Okay, let's go together." The granddaughter is young and smart. If there is anything she can't think of, she can remind her from the side.

When riding bicycles all the way to Zhaojia Village, Chen Xiaoying said, "Xiaoyu, why don't we buy a motorcycle someday? Motorcycles run faster."

Li Yutong said as she rode her bicycle, "Grandma, it's not a good thing for you to ride a motorcycle too fast. Let's buy a car after a while."

"What, a car? Will I ever be able to ride in a car in my lifetime?" Chen Xiaoying couldn't help laughing.

In her opinion, those who ride in cars are big bosses and rich people. Who is she? She is just an old country woman who can ride in a car. She spends all the money she earns.

Li Yutong smiled and said, "Grandma, you are not a big boss yet. A car costs 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, and we can afford it. Grandma, how about we take the driving test together?"

She turned 18 last year, but due to her heavy study schedule, she didn't have time to take the driving test. Now that it's summer vacation, it's just right.

Chen Xiaoying was a little scared: "I'm carsick..."

"Grandma, I heard that people who get carsick don't get carsick when driving." Li Yutong said, "Why don't you try it while I learn in a few days?"

The grandparents and grandson decided to get a driver's license and buy a car after they learned how to drive.

By the time the grandparents and grandchildren arrived at Zhaojia Village, almost an hour had passed. At this time, most people in the village were harvesting in the autumn, either cutting wheat in the fields or drying the harvested wheat in the threshing floor.

The drying yard of Zhaojia Village was full of people. Tractors were pulling stone rollers, compacting and rolling the dried and flattened wheat straw. Even though everyone was covered in dust, they were all doing their job and looked happy.

Chen Xiaoying thought of the harvesters of later generations. Such large machines would run in the fields, return the straw to the fields, and harvest the wheat grains directly on the edge of the fields. No manual operation was required, unless people wanted to sell the wheat at a higher price. In that case, they would choose to take the wheat home and dry it before selling it.

At that time, there were no dirt roads like this. Most of them were concrete roads. With a high temperature of over 30 degrees, the wheat could be completely dried in just two days. Large grain trucks came to the village to collect grain. That kind of machine had a tube inserted into the wheat pile. By pushing the switch, the wheat could be sucked into the truck bed. With advanced technology, people's lives became much more relaxed.

"Auntie, come and see Hongyan." People in Zhaojia Village who knew Chen Xiaoying began to greet her.

Chen Xiaoying also smiled: "Yes, I have something to talk to her about."

When she heard Li Hongyan's name, her face looked unhappy. People around her who remembered the various conflicts between Li Hongyan and her parents couldn't help but exchange glances.

There are no secrets in the village, especially rare and unusual things. People want to spread the news from one end of the village to the other end so that they can appear to be more informed than others.

Li Hongyan is the first capable person in Zhaojia Village.

This is not a compliment, but a real sarcasm. She is not good at growing crops, nor does she understand any other techniques. The title of the most capable person is just a sarcasm for Li Hongyan's tendency to show off that she is smarter than others. It is just a mockery of others towards her.

Li Hongyan herself did not think this was a mockery, she thought it was other people's jealousy of her.

"Hongyan is at home. She just loaded her family's food onto a tricycle and took it back." Someone from Zhaojia Village said.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Chen Xiaoying said hello and took Li Yutong there.

When the grandfather and grandson arrived at Li Hongyan's door, they did not see the big red iron gate of later generations, but a wooden door made of two broken wooden boards nailed together. The locks were made of iron wire twisted together, the kind that can protect against gentlemen but not villains.

They are all poor people anyway, so if a thief goes in, he will come out empty-handed.

In the yard, Chen Xiaoying saw Zhao Faliang and Li Hongyan carrying whole bags of wheat and moving them into the house. Their two grandsons, Zhao Pengbo and Zhao Pengle, who were also grown men, were pushing the wheat in the bed of the tricycle to the side of the vehicle so that Zhao Faliang could come over and unload the wheat onto the ground.

"Grandma, why are you here? And Xiaoyu is here." Zhao Pengle saw Chen Xiaoying and Li Yutong first and greeted them with a smile.

Zhao Pengle is honest and has a round face, and he looks even more adorable when he smiles.

Zhao Pengbo, who was standing by, turned around and looked over, with a complicated expression on his face. He also called out dryly, "Grandma."

After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to work with a sullen look.

When he met his grandmother who had loved him since he was a child, he was not as enthusiastic as Zhao Pengle.
