Xu Zhichun and Liang Mingxuan looked at each other in shock.
Wasted?
Where is it wasted? Haven’t all the five acres of rice been planted? Next step is to just take care of the fields and wait for two months to check and pull out the weeds, apply manure, water and fertilizer, and then wait for the harvest.
How did Missus Zhang manage to have such an expression of mercy and granting favor?
And that "share a portion" is very amazing. If this field really falls into their hands, who knows how much they will take and how much they will give.
To be honest, in the past two years, the eldest house and the second house has been taking advantage of Liang Minglang's absence. The original owner did not dare to make too much trouble. After discussion, the money Liang Minglang left for Liang Mingxuan's education was handed over to the village chief to keep. Later, the original owner was somewhat overwhelmed by the eldest house and the second house, and couldn't stand it. After selling pigs and harvesting grains, they simply handed over the money to the village chief to keep.
The eldest house and the second house dare not speak out.
As for how much silver was handed over to the village chief, Xu Zhichun's memory was missing, and she couldn't remember it.
Anyway, it seems that there are quite a few. In addition to the money saved, Liang Minglang entered the mountain before leaving, and hunted several wolf skins to sell for money.
Anyway, as long as they tightened their belts to live. As long as there is no major accident, as long as the child goes well in the exam, he doesn't need to repeat the exam for many years, she can support Liang Mingxuan to become an imperial Provincial Examination passer.
Xu Zhichun was about to speak when Missus Bai also came, "Zhichun, are you feeling better? I came to see you!"
Missus Zhang immediately rolled her eyes in disgust.
Xu Zhichun went out to greet her, and said with a smile on her face: "Oh, my second aunt is here, you came to visit, why are you empty-handed!"
Missus Bai: "..."
Xu Zhichun coughed lightly "I'm sorry, Second aunt, I'm not good at speaking."
Missus Bai snorted, her mood getting worse, and she felt that she did it on purpose.
Missus Zhang was sarcastic: "I think Zhichun is right. How can you as an aunt, come to see your injured niece-in-law without bringing anything? Don't you have anything, not even an egg? You should have brought a few."
Missus Bai sneered: "What did my sister-in-law brought? Tell me about it."
Missus Zhang is righteous and confident: "Our two families are different. I have three sons and one daughter, and I also have an eldest grandson. There are so many people in my family. My youngest son is studying in school. The family has a lot of expenses. Where can I get more things? You are different. You only have two sons who does not go to school, and you don't have a big grandson. Can't you even spend a few eggs? You're just stingy!"
Missus Bai is already small minded, and after being shown off and provoked by Missus Zhang. Her facial features were enraged: "If you want to talk, just talk. What do you mean by bringing this up? Why do you need to concern yourself about my family? With Mingxiang, what is the point of him studying? He is two years older than Mingxuan but his studies aren't even as good as Mingxuan. Aren't you embarrassed to compare."
"Shut up! My Mingxiang is doing well in school, much better than Mingxuan! You are not a scholar, what do you know? Just open your mouth to you. When my Mingxiang becomes a high-ranking official in the future, don't even think about getting any benefits!"
Missus Zhang cannot stand others saying that his son was not good at studying, so she glared at Missus Bai who has interrupted.
Xu Zhichun was speechless, you quarrel amongst yourself, why are you pulling my Mingxuan? Is it just because you are protecting your own son.
She was afraid that Mingxuan's being a child would be hurt by Missus Zhang's words, so she patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "Don't listen to Aunt's nonsense. Sister-in-law knows that you are the best."
Liang Mingxuan glanced at the two aunts who were quarreling with each other, nodded, and looked at Xu Zhichun with dark and quiet eyes: "En, I know."
Xu Zhichun was very pleased, "Good."
Xu Zhichun was anxious to stew chicken for lunch. Seeing that the two aunts had no intention of stopping, she had to interrupt: "Ahem, two aunts, if nothing else, why don't you go back to your own house to argue?"
Missus Zhang and Missus Bai turned their heads in unison to glare at Xu Zhichun, both of them feeling exasperated: This damn girl really can't speak! Why is she infuriating!
It was simply speaking the truth, leaving them all at a loss for how to refute it.
Missus Zhang held it in, and finally said angrily: "Okay, I should be leaving now. What I just said is settled!"
Missus Bai was even more anxious: "What is my sister-in-law talking about? I'd like to hear it too."
Missus Zhang sneered: "What does it have to do with you? Why should I tell you?"
Xu Zhichun: "Aunt said she wanted to take care of my paddy fields, but I didn't agree. Aunt, I can take care of it myself, so there is really no need for you to help."
Missus Zhang was furious after arguing with Missus Bai and directed all her anger towards Xu Zhichun: "Shut up! Don't be ungrateful! With your health condition how can you possibly take care of it? That's the best paddy field, don't ruin it! Us farmers' families not taking good care of the fields well is a severe sin. We offered to help sincerely, but you don't appreciate it? What? Do you think we will steal your land? Isn't the land deed safely in your hands? What an ungrateful creature, treating kindness like dirt!"
Xu Zhichun was also annoyed, "No need, it's not necessary! Since it's my field, I have the final say. If anyone of you dares to touch my field, I will go to the village chief's house to cry. Minglang has just left, and you are bullying me and brother in-law. Do you want to force me to death?"
Throwing a tantrum and crying, who can’t do that?
Life is like a play and it depends entirely on acting skills, and she can also perfectly integrate into her surroundings.
Perhaps the act is becoming a bit too real, and the emotions were stilulated. She was a little too excited. Her wound hurt, and her head feels a little dizzy, and her face is a little pale. Xu Zhichun couldn't help but hold her head and groaned, and her body swayed.
Liang Mingxuan hurriedly supported her: "Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Aunt, if something happens to my sister-in-law, I will definitely go to find the village chief uncle."
Only then did Missus Zhang remember that she was injured when she jumped off such a high cliff, and just yesterday she had walked out of the gates of hell. She couldn't help but feel a bit flustered and spat. "Its her own foul temper, what does it have to do with me? Since you don't recognize a good person's heart, then forget it. I can't be bothered to worry about it. Don't come begging me in the future, hmph!"
She hurriedly left while cursing.
Missus Bai was relieved when she saw her leavie, and said with a smirk: "My niece-in-law should rest, I'll go first, if you have any questions, go find us to help."
She left quickly after speaking.
Otherwise? She is not willing to stay and help.
Xu Zhichun is incapable of handling matters like this. The eldest house is too anxious, can’t they wait for a few days? Besides, the eldest house wants to have it all to themselves, there is no way she'll let them.
Liang Mingxuan wanted to help his sister-in-law into the house to sit down and rest. Xu Zhichun smiled and waved her hand: "I just got so angry that I was dizzy. Now it's okay. Let's go prepare and stew chicken. Eat more delicious food to recuperate. You should also make sure you are nourished. Your health is the foundation for studying. Cough. If you are not in good health, it won't be good so make sure you eat more later."
Liang Mingxuan felt warmth in his heart, nodded and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, you must also take good care of your health, don't be angry."
“Okay, okay, don’t be angry, don't be angry.”
The chicken was quickly cut into pieces and ready to be put into the pot.
The chickens raised by farmers get plenty of exercise and eat environmentally friendly diet, resulting them being very lean, with packed meat and no fat under the skin.
If this were in modern times, such chickens would be at least three times more expensive than those found in chicken farms, but Xu Zhichun felt that it was not enough to eat.
"You go to the vegetable garden and pull up a radish and wash it and bring it back, and cut two handfuls of leeks." After sending the child away, she took the chicken from her warehouse and mixed it in.
