Chapter 47 I haven't started looking yet
"You—" Zhang realized she had been tricked and became angry: "We are not outsiders!"
"Then tell me how much silver your family has."
"dream!"
Stupid, so stupid that I can't describe it.
Uncle Liang could no longer bear it and scolded, becoming a little angry and embarrassed: "Shut up! Xu, are you determined to alienate us? If you need anything in the future, don't ask us for help."
Zhang hummed proudly: "That's right!"
When her husband glared at her, she was so scared that she shrank her neck and pursed her lips tightly.
Xu Zhichun thought to himself, even if I beg you, you won’t be able to help me.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others; a blacksmith must be strong himself.
This has been the case throughout history.
But it was difficult for her to say that now.
Saying anything would only add fuel to the fire; they would probably become angry and the situation would only get worse. She didn't need to waste her time and energy on getting entangled with them.
Xu Zhichun lowered his head and said nothing.
Uncle Liang finally felt better and smiled coldly, "Think about it carefully. Don't be so short-sighted. Take a long-term view and think more about the future. Bring us those potatoes. We won't bother you anymore!"
Xu Zhichun entered the room and without waiting for Zhang and Bai to follow her in, she came out from the door with two bags, each weighing five pounds, which had been prepared long ago.
Even though Bai was very cunning, she looked a little angry: It turned out that he was on guard against them.
Bai was so proud that she wanted to leave without accepting the five pounds of potatoes, but she finally accepted them. Liang Lizheng said they were good things, so why didn't she want them?
There's no need to mess with good things.
Zhang couldn't help herself and said to Xu Zhichun, "Give me two sweet potatoes. I'll take them back and try them."
Everyone in the village who had tasted it said it was incredibly delicious, soft, sweet, and fragrant, and not only was it a good snack, it was also filling. The heartfelt exclamations and praises they gave each time when they spoke of it tickled my fancy—how could it be so unbelievable? He must be bragging!
Zhang really wanted to taste it.
Although Bai didn't say anything, she was still curious and wanted to know, so she couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen.
If Xu Zhichun promised to give it to Zhang, could he not give it to her?
Xu Zhichun was shocked, heartbroken, and incredulous: "Aunt, that's for seeding!"
You actually said you wanted to taste it? Isn't that a waste of good things? Don't you have any regrets?
Zhang seemed to be such an ignorant person, actually saying such a thing. She was embarrassed and angry: "Stingy, I won't pull it over!"
It must be a lie!
Zhang and the others finally left, and there was finally peace and quiet.
Liang Mingxuan said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about the future, don't think too far ahead. I'll take care of it. I won't let you down."
Since his sister-in-law is protecting him now, he will naturally be able to protect her in the future.
Therefore, the sister-in-law does not have to compromise for the long term or for the "what if" that may never happen.
Xu Zhichun felt warm inside, nodded gently and smiled softly, "I know, I know, our Mingxuan is the best! But you don't have to feel too stressed, sister-in-law knows what's going on. We have the village head and the others, so there's nothing your uncles can do."
If you take a step back, you will take all the steps back. If you are unwilling to take all the steps back, sooner or later you will fall out. By then, won’t the previous steps back be in vain?
It’s better to block it at the source.
Xu Zhichun had a clear understanding of this account and would not make any mistakes.
"Let's make dinner and eat. I'm hungry."
"Um."
Steamed egg custard, fried pork slices, and stir-fried cabbage with vinegar. The uncle and sister-in-law did not delay anything. The food was served on the table, steaming hot and fragrant, soothing the stomach and making people feel much more comfortable.
"Sister-in-law."
When they were almost at the door of their house, Bai slowed down and called out to Zhang with a smile.
Zhang stopped and asked, "Hmm?"
Mrs. Bai smiled, leaned close to her and whispered, "I wonder if sister-in-law has found someone for Mrs. Xu? Where is it? Can you tell me about it?"
Zhang was stunned.
Ah, this——
To be honest, she has been so busy lately that she has forgotten about this matter and hasn't even started yet.
Mrs. Bai guessed about half of what she had thought from her reaction, frowning in dissatisfaction, "Hasn't sister-in-law found a suitable family yet? Then sister-in-law, you better hurry up. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. Look at that Xu, she's cunning and treacherous, she won't settle down, and she's also good at currying favor with the head of the village. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed."
Zhang disagreed: "Isn't she doing all this just to live a good life? What could be better and more promising than remarrying? Don't worry about this matter, I know what's going on!"
How many farts do you have!
By the time you realize it, the daylily will be cold.
Bai wanted to curse, but she couldn't because Zhang had to do it.
"Sister-in-law, don't you want the sweet potatoes? This credit should have belonged to our Liang family. The villagers should have remembered our kindness. Now all the money has gone to her. Are you willing to accept this, sister-in-law?"
Zhang gritted her teeth, of course she was unwilling to accept this.
She dreamed of trying sweet potatoes to see if they were as exaggerated as those lazy women said. But Xu Zhichun wouldn't even give her two.
mean!
"You're right. We should marry her off sooner rather than later. The sweet potatoes will then belong to our family."
She can taste as much as she wants.
Didn't the village head say that not a single sweet potato vine or potato could leave the village? And of course, Xu couldn't take them with her if she remarried.
Bai secretly rolled her eyes: All she does is eat, eat, eat, and think about these little things.
"Sister-in-law is right. I'll be waiting for your good news."
"Hmph, don't worry!"
Bai was really worried, but she couldn't make it too obvious, so she just smiled and left.
When Zhang returned home, her daughter-in-law Mao had already prepared dinner.
But looking at the potatoes she had just gotten, she wanted to taste them.
Although there are no sweet potatoes, potatoes will do.
She would feel uncomfortable if she didn't taste it.
I heard that these potatoes can be eaten as a meal and used in cooking, so I peeled them, cut them into small pieces and cooked them.
For fear that it was not cooked enough, I added a large ladle of water and cooked it until it was mushy.
But potatoes are such a good thing, even if they are cooked into a mush, they are still delicious.
The whole family's taste buds were conquered by potatoes.
"It's so delicious! Potatoes are so delicious, I can't imagine how delicious the sweet potatoes must be!"
"Mom, let's make these potatoes again tomorrow. I haven't had enough yet."
"Me too, I still want to eat."
Mrs. Zhang and Uncle Liang were already feeling distressed.
"What are you eating?! This is for seeding! If you eat it all, I wonder what you'll eat in the future! If I had known it was so delicious, I shouldn't have cooked it."
Zhang felt very distressed. Even if she had to cook, she should just cook one for herself and her husband to share.
Mao and others were very disappointed and felt extremely regretful.
The next day, Mao secretly ran to Xu Zhichun's house and wanted to ask her for more. When she was asking, Zeng Xiaoyan and her husband happened to come. Hearing this, Zeng Xiaoyan scolded her without saying a word: Her father-in-law has said that no one is allowed to use this matter to bother Sister Zhichun again. Do their family not respect her father-in-law or what?
Mao was so frightened that she left in a hurry.
Zhang had been planning to ask, but now she couldn't go. Otherwise, that old man, Liang Lizheng, would definitely get angry and curse.
Zhang was so angry that she scolded Mao: She is the only one who is proactive!
