The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 123 Life is not easy, cherish what you have

Soon it was Li Dagou and Li Ergou's turn to divide the food. The four of them were all hardworking and basically got full work points. Even the children earned a cent. Moreover, according to the rules set when the family was divided, Old Lady Li did not take advantage, so both families got a lot of food and money.

When the two families saw the old lady Li waiting nearby with a mean look on her face, they knew that she was waiting for their food and money.

Li Dagou's wife Liu Yulan and Li Ergou's wife Wang Su'e looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.

Liu Yulan turned to the team leader and the accountant and said, "Uncle, please weigh out the grain and money that should be given to my mother-in-law as agreed upon when the family was divided. We want to live a peaceful life and don't want to have any disputes with her."

Since both families said so, and Mrs. Li was waiting here, Shen Yongfu nodded, and the accountant calculated the grain and money that should be divided between the two families, and also calculated how much should be given to Mrs. Li, and directly weighed it out and gave it to both parties.

It was done in front of everyone's eyes, and it was done by the village cadres. It was fair, just, open and transparent. Even if Old Lady Li denied it later, the villagers' spit would drown her.

Both Li Dagou and Li Ergou's families are able to endure hardships. Even if they give some food and money to Old Lady Li, they will not starve to death. There are so many wild fruits and vegetables in the mountains that they can make a living. Both families just want to live a peaceful life.

Old Lady Li took Li Sangou and pushed the food back home. Li Sangou looked at Li Dagou and Li Ergou proudly, as if he was the winner. But he had no idea how happy the two families were after they separated.

When Shen Zhensheng saw this, he said to Xiao Baoer, "Wife, Da Gou and Er Gou are both good people. Unlike Li San Gou, they are down-to-earth and honest. I think we can buy firewood from one of them."

Xiao Baoer nodded and agreed, "Okay, you decide. Just pay them according to the market price. Don't let them suffer a loss."

"My wife is so beautiful and kind, she is really my little angel."

Xiao Baoer secretly pinched his waist and said, "You are the only one who talks sweetly."

Shen Zhensheng whispered in her ear with a playful smile, "Won't you know how sweet it is when you try it tonight? I'll let you taste me tonight."

Xiao Baoer was afraid that there were too many people around him, and if someone accidentally heard his rude words, it would be bad, so he just ignored him. But Shen Zhensheng knew that his wife was not angry, she was just shy.

When Shen's father and mother arrived, Shen Laoer had already borrowed a cart from somewhere else, and he and Shen Zhensheng moved the grain onto the cart.

After seeing that the grain had been moved, Liu Ying said to Shen Laoer, "Head of the household, please send the grain back to our parents. My third brother has a young child, and his wife can't take care of him alone."

When Shen's mother heard Liu Ying's words, she gave her an admiring look. She knew that the second child's wife was sensible and understood the big principles, and was better able to unite her younger brothers and sisters. She was much better than Wang Xiang.

Even if Liu Ying hadn't said it, Shen Laoer would have sent the food back to his parents. Shen's mother went back with him, and Shen's father stayed to help deal with the food allocated to Shen Laoer's family, as the third brother's family had not bought any food yet.

Shen Laoer and his mother sent the grain back, locked it in the house and returned to the threshing ground. It happened that the grain in Shen Laoer's house had already been distributed.

When Shen's mother came back, she brought a stool from home for Xiao Baoer. The third sister's family had to wait until the end to buy food, and it must be tiring for the pregnant woman to stand for such a long time.

In fact, when Shen Zhensheng first went out, he insisted on bringing a stool with him, but Xiao Baoer didn't let him, thinking that it would be good for the child if he walked more.

Shen's mother brought a stool and Shen Zhensheng insisted that she sit down and rest for a while, so she had to sit down even if she didn't want to.

As soon as I sat down, I heard the village chief's wife's sneer, "Bah, what a lawless little bitch, she even ordered her own mother-in-law around. I think she was beaten too lightly."

Xiao Bao'er wasn't angry yet, but Shen Zhensheng couldn't help himself when he heard her talking about his wife. "I think what you said is right, some people are just too harsh on others. They should be dealt with like my wife dealt with Qin Guafu and Li Sufen."

"Who are you talking about, Shen Laosan? How dare you talk to me like that? My man is the village chief," Sun Erying said arrogantly.

Xiao Baoer sat on the stool without getting angry. "I advise you to be humble. This is your first time being a human being, and I won't let you go. Don't let me do it. Being a human being is not easy, so cherish it while you have it."

When Sun Erying saw Shen's mother coming over, he realized that he was no match for her in a fight, so he stopped talking and quickly asked his son to push the food back home.

However, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng decided to take action against the village chief's family. Moreover, the village chief Li Changhe's behavior during the rainstorm had already aroused public anger. It was obviously not suitable for him to continue to be a cadre, so his family could not be allowed to continue to jump around.

After everyone had distributed the grain, there were still a few families left in the threshing ground who did not get enough grain and wanted to buy more grain, but the first few families only bought coarse grains.

Because coarse grains are much cheaper than fine grains, the money used to buy fine grains can be used to buy a lot of coarse grains. Now, for people, what is important is not to eat well, but to eat enough.

When it was Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer's turn, Shen Yongfu asked Shen Zhensheng, "Third brother, how much fine grain and coarse grain does your family need? If your family only buys fine grain, it will cost a lot of money."

In fact, Shen Yongfu was about to tell you that you can buy more coarse grains and less fine grains. As Shen Zhensheng's cousin, he couldn't help but worry more about him. They had just built a brick house, and Zhensheng's family might be in trouble.

However, Shen Zhensheng did not listen to his advice, "Uncle, our family needs all fine grains, we need some sweet potatoes and potatoes. My wife said that the sweet potatoes grown in the village are sweet and she likes to eat them." Then Shen Zhensheng said how many kilograms of white flour, rice, sweet potatoes and potatoes were needed.

Everyone who heard it was surprised. How much money did it cost? Shen Yongfu's heart trembled, and he looked at Xiao Baoer beside him, wanting her to persuade Shen Zhensheng.

Unexpectedly, Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer understood what he meant and laughed, "Uncle, you don't have to look at my wife, this is what we have discussed," Shen Zhensheng took the money out of his pocket, calculated how much money was needed, and then handed it to him.

Shen Yongfu, the accountant, and the people waiting to buy food looked at the couple with envy. How could they just pay so much money? Some families in this village didn't even get so much money today.

Shen Zhensheng added, "My wife and children are weak and need to eat more good food to nourish themselves. I said I would eat coarse grains, but my wife felt sorry for me and disagreed, and insisted that I also eat fine grains.

Look, I have used all the money I received from translation work this month to buy food. Our family now relies on my wife to earn money.”

A group of grown men were very convinced when they heard that Shen Zhensheng was so proud of living off his wife. He had the ability to live off his wife and his wife was willing to support him.

In fact, the couple had agreed to buy so much fine grains, so that the villagers would soon know that they bought fine grains, and it would be easier to tell whether the family had enough fine grains to eat every day.

As for saying that it was bought with the money from Xiao Baoer's translation books, it was also a reason thought up by the couple. After all, everyone in the village knew that she was doing translation work and could earn a lot of money.

However, using this reason was a bit unfair to Shen Zhensheng. Xiao Baoer was originally worried that he would feel disappointed, but now seeing how proud he was, he really didn't feel disappointed at all.
