Wu Zhiqiu felt sad. If this happened in her family, the eldest and the third child would probably have a huge quarrel. It was better for her younger brother and his wife to educate their children.
The third brother wanted to say that he could also give away his job, but was stopped by Li Mancang's eyes. He said that he would wait until the matter with Dong Ge was settled, and that job would not be lost.
The third brother can only close his own hole.
Li Xingye's task was given to Li Xingyuan. Liu Cuihua wiped the tears from her eyes. She was happy that the children were so friendly. She patted her eldest daughter-in-law Fenglan's hand, fearing that her daughter-in-law would be unhappy. She thought Xinghu was a good man and his wife was not bad either. They did such a big thing by themselves. Xiulan did not show any displeasure.
Xiulan smiled at her mother-in-law to show that she was not unhappy.
"Uncle, let Xingyuan live with me when the time comes. It's just me and Manman living at home, and I'm a little scared. It's just right for him to keep me company! He can also help me with some physical work when he's free!" Fenglan also spoke with a smile.
"Fenglan, thank you!" Li Mantun did not refuse. Fenglan was helping them, and he appreciated it. He would always remember the kindness of his elder brother and his family!
"Xingye, Fenglan, thank you so much, Auntie!" Liu Cuihua burst into tears again.
"It's New Year's Day, don't be so rude. We are a family, why should we thank each other? Just help take care of your eldest brother's land!" the old lady said.
Liu Cuihua wiped her eyes quickly and said, "Mom, of course, even without this job, we will help big brother to plant the land! Big brother and sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about the work in the field, just leave it to us, you can go to work in the city with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about the family!"
Liu Cuihua took on a lot of responsibility
Li Mantun also nodded. He meant the same thing. He had discussed it with Liu Cuihua after buying the land. His elder brother and his friends would provide the seeds and fertilizers, and they would provide the labor. They would guarantee to bring the land back home in full by the end of the year!
"How can I let you guys work on all those old fields? I'll come back and plant them when the time comes. If I can't plant them all, I'll hire some people to do it," Li Mancang said hurriedly.
"Why hire someone? We have so many laborers at home. It would be ridiculous to hire someone! Brother, you don't need to worry about the land. You haven't planted it in so many years. You don't know how to plant it. Leave it to the family and don't worry! Just wait for the harvest in autumn!" Liu Cuihua looked disapproving. Why do we need to hire someone? His family is full of strong laborers!
"Let's talk about it later. It's still early!" Wu Zhiqiu felt warm in his heart and pulled the excited Liu Cuihua to sit down.
"What are you talking about? I said you don't have to worry about it, so you don't have to worry about it!" Liu Cuihua took her sister-in-law's hand. In the past, she always looked down on her eldest brother's family for being stingy and often gave him the cold shoulder.
Now she regrets it very much. In the past, her eldest brother's family was really poor, and she had no sympathy at all. Her heart was as narrow as a needle. Now her eldest brother's family has just recovered a little in recent years, and seeing the help she has given to his family, she feels ashamed. She must make up for her past mistakes no matter what!
This reunion dinner was truly a happy one, and everyone was happy from the bottom of their hearts.
After dinner, we cleaned up the table and put some melon seeds and candies on the kang for everyone to eat. The children cheered and looked forward to this day all year long. With candies and whips in their pockets, they went out to play with their friends.
The women cannot sit idle either, they knead the dough, chop the stuffing, and prepare to make dumplings.
The old lady took out five coins from her pocket and said, "Let's see who can eat it next year! Whoever eats it will definitely make a fortune next year!"
Chunni took the coin, scalded it with boiling water, and soaked it in strong liquor.
"Grandma, I will definitely be able to eat it in the new year!" The third brother stared at the coins with shining eyes. He will definitely get rich in the new year!
