"I'll call the eldest and second sons over tomorrow to talk about it," the old lady reminded him several times, still worried.
"You're just too naive. They're not children anymore, how can you be so naive? Let's just live our lives in peace."
The old lady gave the old man a look and said, "I agree. If the village has distributed the money, should we give it to them directly or what? We can explain it to them clearly tomorrow."
The old man said: "It depends on how much. If it's less, we can keep it for ourselves. If it's more, we can keep some and the eldest and the second one can each take half of the rest."
"There's no point between the two girls?"
"I'm not dead yet, what's there to divide? Won't all the houses in the city be relocated in the future? Why are you so anxious for them? They have such long-term vision. How much can we two in the village have? The bulk of our income is here."
The old lady thought so too. They were the only two people with food-producing land and houses in the village, and the land was leased by the second son, so he couldn't give much money.
Early the next morning, just as it was getting light, Chunni rode her bicycle back to her parents' home. She had to go early and come back early because the store still had to be open.
When she arrived at the door of her house, she heard people in the yard talking, as if they were having dinner. When Chunni heard her name, she slowed down her pace.
The wall around their house is more than one person high, and the people in the yard cannot see people outside the wall unless they go out.
Chunni stood by the gate, listening to the voices of the yardkeepers.
"Mom and Dad, the food ration land for Chunni and the three children should have belonged to our family." This was the voice of the eldest sister-in-law. Because of Erbao's matter, Chunni now has no contact with the eldest brother's family.
"Chun Ni is living a good life now. She is building a greenhouse and running a farm. Our family has not benefited from it at all. Other girls are always thinking about their family and think about their family for all the good things. Our girl is really like water spilled once she is married." The second sister-in-law also echoed the eldest sister-in-law's words.
"My eldest sister is living well now, but we brothers are not doing so well. Mom and Dad, it would be great if we could live in the city and our children could go to school in the city. I wonder if my eldest sister's food-producing land can be left to our family." The speaker was the fourth brother's wife.
"Although my sister doesn't like us brothers and doesn't consider our parents' face, we are also the roots of the family. She is living so well now, and this little food-producing land can be considered as relief for our family," said the fourth brother with a smile.
Chunni's parents never said a word.
"What if Chunni is not willing? There are ten acres of land for four people to feed themselves. Adding the head fee, it would be at least two hundred thousand." The eldest brother's tone was full of heartache, as if he was taking money out of his pocket.
"This money is a lot for us. Chunni still owns so many lands and mountains. This little money is nothing. Li Xingye's family also has greenhouse farms and other things. Chunni must have made tens of millions now." The second sister-in-law was so envious that her saliva was about to flow.
The family was silent for a moment. Yes, Chunni suddenly became a millionaire.
"We are so rich now, we can't take this little bit from our family. Maybe the eldest sister will give us the land she contracted." The fourth brother said with excitement.
"It will take my eldest sister's family several lifetimes to finish moving Li Xingye's things alone," the fourth brother's wife continued.
The whole family looked at Chunni's parents who had been silent.
"Mom and Dad, Chunni doesn't have a good relationship with us. You can talk to her. She is so rich now. She should take care of us brothers and don't take their food ration land."
"The land and mountains we contracted belong to our village. Without you, my father, would Chunni have been able to contract them? They should have stayed at home."
"Big sister definitely doesn't want the food ration fields, and the leased land is probably not worth it. That's the money the Li family got."
"What's wrong with the Li family taking it? Isn't that our village's land? How could they take it without our father?"
