Chapter 123 Patriarchal Liu Lan

It was just a small kindness. Who would have thought that along the way, everyone in the third room of the Yu family would keep the goodness of Yu Luo and his family in their hearts.

After that, there was no need for Yu Haojie to take any part in the firewood. Brothers Yu Yongcai took care of it.

But here, Mrs. Chen looked at the fish sent by Yu Liang and his son with a look of disgust!

"Your baskets are all wet, so you caught so many broken fish? These fish are so small? How can you eat them?!"

Facing Chen's anger, Yu Liang smiled fawningly and didn't know how to explain it.

They netted a lot of fish, but they were all small. The largest one was only three fingers wide, and most were more than one finger wide.

He also couldn't understand why, even though Yu Yongcai and Yu Haojie could catch something weighing one or two kilograms, they couldn't.

"Auntie, there are only so many, and there are many of us. We only want half of it, and the largest one three fingers wide will be given to you. You..."

"What?!

You have the nerve to ask for half of it? Didn’t you say that you would catch it for your uncle to replenish his body? What do you mean by this? You can’t be duplicitous?!"

"Mom, it's almost over. They don't have food. It would be a good thing to catch some fish to replenish the children's health. It's okay to pack up the fish early and make a pot of fish soup for everyone to drink."

Yu Zhengqing lay on the haystack to rest. He didn't want to worry about these trivial matters, but his mother's voice was really noisy. He was tired after a day, more tired than anyone else. Now he just wanted to have some peace of mind.

"I'll go clean it up. Mom will be able to drink fish soup soon."

Seeing this, the discerning Lan quickly took the basket and went to work.

Although she had never handled these small fishes and couldn't stand the smell of them, in order to avoid being abandoned by her husband's family as a concubine in the future, she had to live humble and please at all times.

Mrs. Chen finally gave up when she saw that Yu Zhengqing had spoken.

Yu Liang took Yu Shanhai back in embarrassment. He thought he could get some benefits from Dafang, but it seemed that her sister-in-law was still as bitter and mean as ever.

No, they can't place their hopes on Dafang in the future. If his eldest brother hadn't been sick, it would still be possible, but now that his eldest brother is like this, with a sister-in-law like Chen here, let alone relying on them to survive.

Having arrived in a wild land, it would be a good thing if the Chen family didn't exploit them in turn.

"Hey, why is there such a big one?"

Returning to his resting place, Yu Liang looked surprised when he saw the female family members handling the fish.

Obviously they have never caught such a big fish before. This fish weighs at least three kilograms. Where did it come from?

Could it be that my honest eldest son had the idea and hid such a big one without me even knowing about it?

"Dad, it was sent by Yongcai's wife. They caught a lot of them. Thinking that Xiaoju was still pregnant and had a group of children, they gave us a big one."

Yu Shanhe, the second eldest son of the second wife, happily helped several female relatives to clean up the small fish. Even though he was tired and cold, he thought that he would be able to drink a sip of fish soup and eat a bite of fish later, which would keep him busy.

"I see. It seems that we have to bear the brunt of our grandson's wife's debt to be able to eat this big fish. Let's bake the big fish and use the small fish to make soup."

The reason why Wang Ying gave a big fish to his second wife was entirely for the sake of his granddaughter-in-law Huang Xiaoju.

Huang Xiaoju is pregnant, and she is Wang Ying's niece, otherwise Wang Ying would not be so kind.

As he said that, Yu Liang looked at his second daughter-in-law, Zhang Fen, "Go and get close to Yu Haojie. I see that you two should be about the same age. Let's get along well and lend them a clay pot, and the whole family will be together."

It’s also nice to have a sip of hot soup.”

"Ah? I'll go...will people buy my account?"

"Why don't you pay for useless things? They are all women. We just chatted for a few words and we started talking together. Isn't it just a matter of borrowing a clay pot? It's not like I asked them for it!"

Looking at his hopeless little daughter-in-law, Yu Liang felt disgusted for a while and lowered his voice with dissatisfaction.

Zhang Fen thought about how Yu Junjie saved her son Xiaogang. She hadn't even thanked him properly yet, and even asked her to borrow something. She was really speechless.

"Brothers and sisters, I think it's better not to borrow a clay pot. Clay pots cost firewood, and I don't know when I will be able to eat the steaming fish soup. I saw they have a big iron pot. Go and borrow the big iron pot for them.

."

Hearing what his sister-in-law Liu Lan said, Zhang Fen looked even more embarrassed.

"Let's go together. Although it's really hard to say it, our family also needs to eat something nutritious. Besides, they saved Xiaogang, so I just want to thank them properly."

After saying this, Yu Shanhe stood up and looked at his wife who looked embarrassed.

Here, as soon as Yu Luo's braised fish was cooked, Yu Shanhe and his wife came towards them.

Yu Shanhe is thirty years old this year, a few years younger than Yu Junjie. He also has his twelve-year-old son Yu Xiaogang with him.

As soon as the family of three came up, Yu Xiaogang knelt down in front of Yu Junjie with a "pop" sound and kowtowed heavily!

This move frightened Ye Jiamei so much that her hands and feet became numb, and she hurriedly pulled him up without waiting for Yu Xiaogang to continue knocking him down.

"Second brother and second sister-in-law, this is what Xiaogang should do. Without the second brother to step forward, our husband and wife would probably have cried to death by now."

"The child must be frightened, so don't torment the child. There will be many dangers on the road ahead, so you should be prepared in advance.

I see that your family has the largest population. It would be best if you can save some game on the road, some mountain products. Otherwise, where will you find food when you get to the icy and snowy north?

Do you really expect those official servants to live on two black-faced steamed buns a day? Commander Wu has said that when we arrive in Pingyang, we will be replaced by other official servants to take over. Those official servants are specially responsible for escorting exiled criminals from various places to the wilderness.

They are definitely not as easy to talk to as Commander Wu and others. With the good times now, you have to make plans for yourself in advance."

Seeing that the whole family was sincere, Ye Jiamei couldn't help but give a few reminders.

After spending two days together, she finally figured out that among the two families in the family, the family of five in Yushanhe was the most irritated. They also had powerful parents-in-law, and they couldn't make the decision. Moreover, their parents-in-law even tried to fawn over them.

Mr. Chen is completely digging his own grave.

It would be a good thing if Chen didn't take the opportunity to squeeze their labor force. If she wanted to take a bite out of Chen's mouth, it would be equivalent to killing her.
