Seeing the fourth brother and the boy from the Zhu family coming over, they smiled and asked them to eat more.
"No need, my sister-in-law made some steamed buns for lunch, and my brother Yi and I have already eaten them."
Zhu Liyan felt relieved when he saw the Fang family members who were not depressed. He smiled and said that he had finished eating.
"Mom and Dad, Linlin went to the commune this morning and bought you a lot of things, including the steamed buns she made at noon. If you can't finish them, you can heat them up in the evening and eat them."
Fang Mingyi took out the things in the backpack and said, "I also told the captain this morning that he would come to build a thatched hut in the evening."
"But Dad, you and the eldest, second, and third brothers in the thatched hut should dig a more secret cellar to hide all the good things before someone comes."
"Okay, we'll start after the thatched house is built." Fang Yuanshan nodded in agreement.
"Also, the team leader said this morning that Mr. Chen has informed the county and the commune that no one will come to trouble our family in the future. But there will be new educated youth coming here recently, so we still have to be on guard." Fang Mingyi put the empty backpack on his back and said
"I understand. We should remember those who have helped our family, and repay them when we have the chance."
After listening to his eldest son's words, Fang Yuanshan took note of them in his heart and waited for the opportunity to return to Kyoto in the future to repay this great favor.
The Fang brothers all agreed one by one.
"Then I'll go back first if I don't have anything else. There will be a lot of people around soon, and it won't be good if people see me."
After Fang Mingyi said this, he called Zhu Liyan back to the educated youth point.
But after giving it much thought, he felt that living so far away and running back and forth was not a solution, so he returned home and discussed with his wife about building a house near the cowshed.
"That's too ostentatious. People in the team will complain. It's not good for my parents." Li Lin frowned and said, "Besides, we didn't even think about building a house when we got married. It's obvious that my parents are building a house right after they get here. We can't do that."
"Okay then." After hearing what his wife said, Fang Mingyi felt that it wouldn't work, so he sighed and went back to lie down on the kang.
Li Lin asked him to do this, and sat aside with a frown and said: "Mingyi, I know you are worried about your family, but new educated youth are coming soon, and we don't know who they are."
"So you should be more restrained. Before doing anything, you should consider me and our two children."
"I'm sorry, I ignored your feelings since my parents came here." Fang Mingyi looked at his wife's frowning brows and felt distressed. He soon realized what he had done wrong and apologized sincerely.
"I will also help you take care of our parents, but we are married now. I just hope that you will consider our little family first before taking care of the family."
After saying this, Li Lin added: "You take a rest for a while, I'll go see the children." Then she went to the next room.
Fang Mingyi looked at his wife who had left and really realized that he was wrong.
It was his fault that he ignored his daughter-in-law the moment his family came over.
When I decided to build a house, it was also out of my own selfish motives.
Now his wife's words woke him up and made him realize his mistake.
So in the future, before doing anything, I must first think about my family, and then consider whether to do it or not.
After Li Lin went to the next room, she looked at the two sleeping children, thought about nothing, took off her shoes and went to sleep on the kang.
When I woke up, Fang Mingyi had already gone to work and the two children were playing on the ground floor.
This made her lie down for a while before she sat up, took out her textbook, called the two children over, and taught them how to read.
