Chen Hongxing took matters into her own hands and wiped the pan with a cotton ball dipped in some oil, then fried some sizzling chili pickles, which was considered breakfast for the whole family.
While cleaning the house and waiting for others to come back for dinner, I calmed down a little and finally asked my son about what happened after he was imprisoned in his previous life.
When she learned that her family was nearly destroyed, Chen Hongxing couldn't help but burst into tears and cursed angrily: "I curse them all to be black-hearted and die by the bullet.
They are brothers from the same ancestor, bah!
From now on, I will be their sworn enemies."
Then he patted his son on the shoulder and praised him: "Well done, you have to send all those inhuman things in!"
After learning about how the economy would develop and prosper in later generations, he no longer forbade his eldest son from doing business. Instead, he took the initiative to discuss with Meng Sheng about letting Meng Chao go to the county town to do business.
Who doesn't want to be a city dweller? She doesn't want her eldest son to be like them, working hard in the dirt all his life.
It is one thing not to use the younger son's things to subsidize the older son, but it is another thing to support and guide the brothers.
Meng Sheng responded to everything.
In the end, it was inevitable to talk about Feng Yi's family again.
Meng Sheng thought about it and decided to tell his mother about the rebirth so that she would not hinder his plan to pursue his wife.
Chen Hongxing was numbed by the continuous news and digested it quickly. This time, without the powerful mother halo, she finally realized something.
She stared at her son blankly and asked, "According to what you said, Feng Yijia died many years ago, and then returned to the present with you.
During those years, she..." He didn't dare to say the rest of the words, his eyes darted around, feeling a little panicked.
My God, there are gods, ghosts, immortals and Buddhas in the world, but a few years ago everyone said it was feudal superstition.
Now it’s confirmed.
Tomorrow, oh no, I have to drag my man to visit the graves of my ancestors. I also have to go and see the land temple outside the village that was destroyed earlier and burn some incense.
After Chen Hongxing finished arranging her morning affairs, she was still thinking about whether she and her family had ever done anything disrespectful to ghosts and gods in the past.
Meng Sheng looked at his mother's face, which had turned blue with fear, and felt that he was somewhat unfilial. He comforted her, "The most terrifying thing in the world is people and their hearts.
To put it bluntly, ghosts are just the consciousness of a person who has an obsession and is unwilling to dissipate. They can't do anything.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have to wait until now to take revenge.”
Hearing this, Chen Hongxing calmed herself down and kept her original plan. However, with the sun gradually getting hotter above her head, she regained her composure.
Looking at her son, she asked seriously, "Tell me the truth, are you having feelings for someone?"
Meng Sheng simply nodded: "I want to pursue her and marry her.
Not only because I liked her, but also because we had similar experiences and knew each other well.
We can talk to each other when we get along, and we don’t have to be on guard all the time.”
Seeing his mother remained silent after he finished speaking, Meng Sheng continued: "Now when I look at other girls who are seventeen or eighteen years old, I feel like I am looking at children. They are so childish.
Those who are more calm and steady are all older and married, so they are even less suitable.
If you don't agree to my marrying Feng Yijia, I'll probably have to be single for the rest of my life."
Chen Hongxing felt sad and upset after hearing what she said.
Forget it, forget it. My son has suffered too much. It doesn’t matter if he marries a monster. As long as he is happy, it’s fine.
Anyway, the future will be spent by the young people on their own.
I thought this in my heart, but I didn’t say it clearly: “It’s up to you, do whatever you want!
Just be mindful of the impact and don't let people say bad things about you.
As for your father, don't tell him about this. Find another way to handle it yourself."
The man has always valued his brothers. If he knew about the life-and-death feud between his brother and his son, he would definitely be depressed for a long time.
This was tantamount to a tacit agreement, and a smile spread across Meng Sheng's face.
He replied loudly, "I understand, mother."
The two of them finished talking in the kitchen, and outside Meng Chenglin came back with his two sons carrying bean stalks.
The sweaty father and his two sons suddenly turned pale when they saw Meng Sheng shouting that his stomach hurt and then disappeared.
The youngest, Meng Qiang, came in and yelled, "Second brother, you've been taking a shit all morning and haven't been seen. I thought you fell into the toilet!"
The eldest brother, Meng Chao, followed behind and said dissatisfiedly, "Second brother, you are so sneaky!"
Meng Chenglin put down his shoulder pole and panted as he said, "Second boy, I've left you some work in the fields. Go and do it after breakfast."
Meng Sheng, knowing that he was in the wrong, answered honestly.
Feng Yijia had no idea that Meng Sheng had revealed his true identity in front of his mother because he had carried a basket of corn for her.
After making and eating breakfast, I went to Feng Chunhua's house.
Mengjia Village has a large population and little land, and land is very valuable.
As soon as Feng Yijia let out the news that he wanted to lease out the land, Feng Chunhua went to her mother's house and brought her father with her to discuss leasing the land.
Feng Chunhua's father, Feng Youliang, is Feng Yi's uncle from the next family. Because the older generation divided the property unevenly, the brothers became enemies, and the younger generations also had little contact with each other.
Except for major events like weddings and funerals, people just join in the fun and have a meal together. On other days, they basically ignore each other when they meet.
Feng Yijia didn't have much contact with people when he was alive, but after wandering for decades, people have a good understanding of his character.
He is a down-to-earth person, so there is no need to worry about him defaulting on the rent after she rents out the land and bullying her as an orphan.
He didn't care about the old grudge between the two families that went on for decades and he himself was not aware of it.
Under the witness of the acting village chief Chen Hai, a land lease agreement was quickly signed with the person.
Apart from receiving two to three hundred kilograms of food rations every year, they don't care about anything else.
