The couple were extremely anxious at this time.
Speaking of this, it was because the production team did not allow everyone to raise chickens casually. Now, a family was not allowed to raise more than three chickens. So Li Afen raised the three open chickens outside, and secretly raised eight "black" chickens in Xia Linsheng's room.
Thinking that no one lives in this house anyway, it would be uncomfortable to leave it empty. I told Yu Sui about it but she refused to build a greenhouse. So, couldn't they just use straw to separate it and raise chickens?
As for the fact that raising chickens in the new house would ruin the house and annoy her son and daughter-in-law, Li Afen had never considered it at all.
Anyway, it wasn't her room that was destroyed, and it wasn't her who was upset. In fact, deep down, she just wanted to do something to upset Xia Linsheng and Yu Sui!
Who made Xia Lin give birth to that unfilial son? She has to send less money to them once they get married. So what's wrong with her raising a few chickens to supplement their income?
At that time, Li Afen had a good plan. She would just keep him. Xia Linsheng would not be back for a year or two anyway. Normally, he would write a letter in advance when he came back. So she could just hide him when the time came.
Even if Xia Linsheng or Yu Sui found out, at most they would just pretend to be weak and kill a chicken for them to vent their anger. Wouldn't that mean they could still make a net profit of seven? It was a good deal no matter how they calculated it, which gave them the idea to boldly raise chickens.
I have raised chickens for more than half a year without any problems. Now they are ready to be eaten but suddenly they are gone. What happened?
Yu Sui's anger made Li Afen feel overwhelmed. She was worried about the disappearance of the eight chickens, and she couldn't help but raise her voice:
"Why are you arguing? This house is empty, and you won't let us live in it. What's wrong with us raising a few chickens? Chickens lay eggs, which also means you'll have many children and good fortune in the future. Isn't that great? Why are you, a new daughter-in-law, arguing with me? I'm telling you the truth, we're not doing anything rash. I separated the middle of the house with straw and old furniture. It doesn't affect you at all. Why are you so stingy? It's really unreasonable!"
Yu Sui's goal has been achieved.
I originally thought that, after all, she was Xia Linsheng's elder. She had returned from the north, so out of courtesy, she had to come and bring some gifts to the two elders of the Xia family, and be polite to them to complete the etiquette. But when I saw the room was messed up like that, I really didn't even want to show courtesy to these two people. The thought of giving them gifts made me even angrier.
Now that we've had such a quarrel, there's no need to give any gifts.
very nice.
Yu Sui turned and left: "Okay, I'm stingy and unreasonable, then I'll go out and ask the reasonable people in your village if there are other families like you who raise chickens in their son and daughter-in-law's room!"
Yu Sui said this just as an excuse to leave.
But Li Afen was extremely anxious.
If people knew that their family secretly raised so many chickens, the production team might criticize her.
Li Afen could only swallow her anger and stop her: "No, no, no, oh daughter-in-law, no, no, we don't have chickens, look, there are... no chickens in this room!"
When Li Afen said the last few words, she was about to cry. In the current situation, she could only erase the fact that the chicken existed. After all, from the current perspective, it would be a greater loss to offend her daughter-in-law.
However, this old guy Xia Xiangdong is really a person who is not able to do anything right and always makes things worse. He always hides behind everything. Now that he found that the chicken was missing, he was looking for it everywhere.
When Yu Sui was talking just now, he went behind the bed, thinking only of the chickens that would be killed and eaten soon. He had no idea what Yu Sui was saying or what Li Afen was mumbling. He only cared about his own anxiety and rushed out from behind the bed and shouted:
"No, not even afterward. It's strange. There were some this morning, but now there's not even any chicken. Who could have stolen it?"
Yu Sui glared at Li Afen and said: I want you to make up a story for me.
Li Afen was really angry, anxious and aggrieved. She pushed Xia Xiangdong hard and yelled:
"No! We don't raise chickens! We've never raised chickens here. Look for yourself, this house is completely empty. There's not a single piece of chicken droppings. Does it look like we've ever raised chickens here?"
Xia Xiangdong was stunned by Li Afen's sudden words. He scratched his head and asked, "Why isn't there anything? Didn't you feed it this morning?"
"I didn't feed them! I didn't! We didn't raise any chickens! Are you dreaming? How dare you ask me about raising chickens when you only know how to eat? No, we don't raise any chickens!"
The chickens were gone, but the daughter-in-law was still there, so Li Afen had no choice but to deny that she had ever raised chickens.
But Xia Xiangdong didn't want to. The chicken was gone... How come the broken rice bucket here was gone too? He had hidden ten yuan in it!
Xia Xiangdong didn't understand at all and was even angrier than Li Afen. He pointed at the spot where the broken bucket was and yelled:
"You don't have chickens? If you don't have chickens, why did you bring all that junk in here? Where did you take this broken rice bucket? Don't tell me the chickens were stolen. You were the one who fed them in the morning, and you're the one who comes in and out every day. If the chickens are missing, you must have sold them secretly! You spendthrift woman, did you sell them again to support your parents? Take them out!"
I can't help it, I absolutely can't help it.
Previously, she had hoped that this damn man could help cover up the fact that they were raising chickens, but now this bastard was pushing all the problems onto her. Li Afen couldn't suppress her anger and immediately started swearing at Xia Xiangdong:
"You blame me again, blame me for everything, it's none of my business, I don't know! I came back with you, how would I know where he went, don't even mention that rotten rice bucket, why didn't you look for the rice bucket? Oh, I know, did you hide the money Xia Linsheng sent back in the rice bucket? Are you a human being? Are you a human being?"
Li Afen said the last sentence, and when she saw Xia Xiangdong's evasive eyes, she immediately knew that she had guessed right.
Good boy! Li Afen was completely defeated and pounced on Xia Xiangdong to tickle him.
"You're admitting it by not saying anything! Why the hell did I marry an old man like you? I see my money getting less and less, and you keep hiding it. Doesn't the whole family have anything to eat or drink? Do you want to support your youngest son? And you, on the other hand, only know how to buy cigarettes for yourself..."
Yu Sui, standing by, said, "...?" There was money hidden in the rice bucket I just sold? Tsk tsk, what a loss.
However, if we don't leave now, when will we leave?
Yu Sui threw down a few words and turned away: "I've never seen such a rude in-law like you. You treat your son and daughter-in-law's new house like this. Then why should I come to see you? I'm leaving and I won't come again."
In order not to give Li Afen the chance to chase her, Yu Sui walked quickly, went to the corridor outside, picked up the bag she brought and left.
