Chapter 549 Don't Give Us Half of It
"With these eight taels of silver, even if we do nothing, we can have food and drink for three years!" she said.
Yang Huaming nodded.
"He'er is eight years old and Ju'er is six. In three years, when one is eleven and the other is nine, they can both be considered in-laws."
"Let's make an appointment first. During the holidays, we can just sit at home and wait to receive gifts!" He was planning.
Ms. Liu was also very excited.
"You are still the fourth child who knows how to plan!"
She smacked her lips and said, "Further back, when He'er Ju'er gets married, we'll give you two more dowry gifts."
"By then, the third girl will have grown up, and it will be time to talk about her husband's family."
"Oh my, I used to think that my daughter was a loser, but now it seems that she is still a cash cow!"
The couple looked forward to the future and both smiled and narrowed their eyes.
Suddenly, Ms. Liu said: "Our parents are really picky. They wouldn't even give us half of the dozen or so chickens and ducks in the backyard."
"I haven't even eaten half of the chicken since my confinement. I'm so greedy!"
Yang Huaming smiled and glanced sideways at Mr. Liu: "What's the rush? In the past, it was difficult to break up the family, and there was no place to eat after stealing."
"Now that we are separated, hey, not even one of those chickens in the backyard can escape from my grasp!" he said.
"By the way, remember to send a message to your parents' family tomorrow, saying that we are separating, and ask them to send a separation gift as soon as possible!"
Yang Huaming ordered.
Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at him: "Do you need to say that? I will take my three girls back to Liujia Village tomorrow morning."
"Not only do I have to tell my parents, but I also have to tell my brothers, sisters-in-law, and brothers-in-law."
"Hey, last time they said the third girl was a daughter and didn't give her a full-moon gift. This time the family separation is a big deal and they can't escape this gift!"
The next day, just after dawn, there was a commotion in the front yard of Lao Yang's house.
Everyone is busy opening warehouses to distribute grain
Yang Hualin brought all the ox carts and carriages from his father-in-law's house.
I also found a few shop assistants, who were busy loading the weighed rice and grains and sundries into trucks and transporting them to the town.
Yang Huaan is not idle either.
I moved all my share of the big house to Yang Yongzhi's house in the front yard and locked the door.
Yang Huazhou also took his share, and then entrusted Bao Suyun to Sun's care while he went to the town to settle down first.
Yang Huaming's legs and feet are weak and he cannot move.
So he temporarily stored the share in the fourth room in the warehouse.
There is still a portion left in the warehouse, which is the ration for Lao Yangtou and Tan.
The plan is to eat it after the autumn harvest.
The rush of business in the dark and dark caused most of the village to come over to watch the fun.
Old Yangtou locked himself in the room.
Mr. Tan distributed them in the warehouse.
I was busy until dark and finally stopped.
…
At night, brothers Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou came to the east room.
"Dad, we have asked Chang Geng and Daniu to come over tomorrow and build a small pot stand for you."
Yang Huazhou Road.
Old Yangtou said nothing.
Mrs. Tan glared at Yang Huazhou angrily: "I don't want your fake kindness."
Yang Huazhou remained silent.
Yang Huazhong took out a bowl with hot chopped green onion and egg pancakes in it.
"Dad, Mom, you haven't eaten anything all day, so please eat two pancakes to satisfy your hunger!"
Yang Huazhong said.
Tan snorted and turned away.
Old Yang glanced at the pancake and nodded to Yang Huazhong: "Lao San, if you are interested, just leave the pancake here. I will bring you a bowl when you finish eating."
Yang Huazhong forced a smile and said, "It's okay."
The two brothers left the house and returned to the backyard.
Yang Huazhou has already found a temporary rental house in an alley next to Tianxiang Building.
Everything was moved in today.
The next step is to wait for Bao Suyun to feel better and be able to ride a carriage, and then take him to the town.
So these two nights, Bao Suyun had to share a bed with Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Huazhou, on the other hand, went to stay with Luo Fengtang.
"Qing'er, my fifth uncle will have to waste half a day tomorrow. He will set up a cooking table for your grandma in the morning and then go to the restaurant in the afternoon."
Before Yang Huazhou left at night, he told Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing smiled slightly: "Well, tomorrow Tang Yazi and I will go to the restaurant to take care of things, so Uncle Wu can stay at home and do his work."
…
Five days later.
After finishing the private dishes in the supreme member's private room yesterday, Yang Ruoqing rarely took a nap at home today.
Early in the morning, I heard Mrs. Tan scolding at the door.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up, just as Mrs. Sun entered the room.
"Hey, I was just about to wake you up for breakfast. Are you awake now?" Mrs. Sun said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded.
"Mom, what are you scolding me for?" She raised her chin towards the door of the house.
Mrs. Sun was startled for a moment, then shook her head: "I don't know if it's true or not this time, but you said you're missing an old hen."
"ah?"
Yang Ruoqing was also surprised.
In the past five days since the separation of Old Yang's family, Old Yang's mental state has been extremely depressed.
I stayed in the house smoking dry cigarettes all day without coming out. The house was as smoky and scorching as a brick cave dwelling.
Tan, on the other hand, was always swearing in and out of his mouth.
After a while, he scolded the kitchen for burning two bowls.
After a while, he scolded someone for picking up eggs in the backyard.
…
"They only have so many chickens and ducks. It's obvious which one is missing."
Yang Ruoqing said as she got dressed and got out of bed.
After washing up and leaving the house, Ms. Tan still stood in front of the chicken coop across the yard and cursed.
Seeing Mrs. Sun and Yang Ruoqing coming out, Mrs. Tan cast doubtful eyes on them.
"There is an old hen missing, have you seen it?" asked Tan.
Mrs. Sun said: "Mom, we didn't see you!"
"Really?" Mrs. Tan looked at Mrs. Sun, as if looking at a thief.
"You and your family live in this backyard. If there is such a big old hen missing from the chicken coop, how can you miss it?" She put on a questioning posture.
Sun was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Tan was suspicious of her.
Mr. Sun was open-minded, but when faced with doubts like Mr. Tan's, he couldn't defend himself.
Yang Ruoqing came over.
"Mistress, do you suspect that we stole your chicken?"
She got straight to the point.
Mrs. Tan remained silent and her scrutinizing eyes fell on Yang Ruoqing again.
Yang Ruoqing twitched her lips: "I won't tell you what kind of people my parents are, but you also know."
"Our restaurant buys dozens of chickens and ducks every day, but I'm not even hungry for that old hen of yours."
"I'd better go elsewhere to find your chicken. If I get there too late, I might end up eating it in my stomach and then pooping it out!"
After saying these words, Yang Ruoqing dragged Sun into the kitchen.
Mr. Tan stood alone in the yard and rolled his eyes.
Then, she stomped toward the front yard.
"Bang bang bang..."
The door of Yang Huaming's house was banged loudly.
Yang Huaming's shouting came from the room: "Who is it? Are you going to let me sleep?"
Mrs. Tan said angrily: "It's your mother, open the door. I have something to do with you!"
In the room, the curtain was lifted, Yang Huaming poked his head out, and saw a figure standing outside the crack of the door.
He quickly pushed Mrs. Liu who was sleeping like a dead pig in the bed.
He whispered: "Wake up quickly, mother is coming to our house!"
Liu Shixiao opened her eyes, "Huh?"
Yang Huaming asked again: "Have you hidden the old hen you got last night?"
Mrs. Liu came to her senses and said: "I tied the wings and covered the chicken's mouth and hid it in a hole behind the chamber pot in the corner!"
Yang Huaming breathed a sigh of relief.
Get up and get out of bed to open the door.
As soon as the door was opened a crack, Mrs. Tan squeezed in from the outside.
Chapter completed!
