Back to 78: My Leisurely Country Life

Chapter 53



He Ming's words broke through the inner defenses that He Liang's wife had built for him.

He had brotherly love in his heart, but it was only because of his wife's constant instigation that things slowly changed over time.

Now that he felt his brother's tolerance again, He Liang was shaken.

At least he regretted making things like this at this moment.

""Grandma, you heard me. This is what the eldest brother said. We didn't force him!"

Yu Li spoke first. She pinched He Liang's waist tightly and kept increasing the force to urge him to speak and make things final.

Unfortunately, He Liang had regretted it at this time.

Seeing this, Grandma He said to He Ming:"The house belongs to you."

Yu Li was furious when she heard it.

How could this be true?

Although the house was a tiled house, it had four rooms after all, and it also had a pigsty.

It was too much of a loss to give it all to the eldest brother. Even if she didn't plan to live in this house, their family had to have a share of the property rights!

"If you want a house, you can use it for your old age. Will you work in the fields in the future? Don't expect your dad to do everything. Don't expect your eldest brother and his wife to help you after the family is divided."

This time, Mrs. He shouted directly at Yu Li.

This sentence made Yu Li speechless.

If Wu Shuhua is a real city girl who has never done farm work since she was a child, then Yu Li is a village girl who has not been willing to do farm work since she was a child.

Although she can collect pig grass and do housework, you can't expect her to work in the fields.

In He Aiguo's family, the only ones who really work in the summer are He Aiguo, He Ming and He Liang.

But He Liang's work is also unsatisfactory.

Yu Li usually only takes care of fruits and vegetables or collects pig grass. She even does laundry and cooking with her mother-in-law Liu Juan. Anyway, they all choose relatively"easy" work. It is impossible for her to work in the fields and farm for her old age.

And Yu Li is not willing to work in her old age.

"The old man will stay at home to live in retirement, and the land will be divided equally. Aiguo, you pay for Xiaoliang to build a two-room house with a kitchen."

Grandma He finally finalized the plan.

Hearing this, Yu Li became anxious again, and said angrily:"Grandma, you can't be so partial. We have two children. How can one room be enough? How are they going to get married in the future!"

Grandma He said calmly:"Where your children will live after getting married is your own business. It is enough for the two children to live in one room now. When the family is divided in the future, they will be responsible for themselves. Your father is only responsible for your family now. It will not be his or my responsibility to worry about it in the future."

Yu Li's face turned red when she heard this.

This is the great-grandson of your He family. How can you say such a thing?

But He Liang said at this time:"Shut up! Let's leave it at that."

Things can't be salvaged, but at least he can prevent his eldest brother from suffering.

He Jianguo sighed:"When we renovate the house later, I'll let Xiaoyong help. It's also a token of my goodwill as the second uncle. Xiaoliang will live a good life in the future."

He Yong, who had been watching the joke silently from behind, was stunned.

He never liked his second sister-in-law, and his relationship with his second brother was a little distant.

Now his old father is so good that he makes the decision for him directly, and he hasn't even expressed his opinion yet!

"Dad, there are only two men in our family, how can we have time! How about we provide some food? Second brother’s family needs help after all."

He Yong didn't want to help!

If he works diligently, that's what he should do. If he works slowly, he will be gossiped about and it will be thankless. He doesn't want anything from his second brother's family, so he doesn't want this.

He Jianguo turned his head and glared at his son, then turned to his eldest brother He Aiguo and said,"We will send some food too, so let's build a house for Xiaoliang as soon as possible."

He Yongjun also said,"I asked Qiangwaer not to go up the mountain recently, so use the horse to transport things. Go back and borrow a donkey cart to pull it."

He Qiang had no objection, the mare was doing the work, not him.

He was famous for being idle, and even if he was asked to help, he had the nerve to not work hard.

Anyway, he didn't need to worry about his reputation.

At this time, the bad reputation he had left behind turned out to be a good thing...

He Qiang said generously:"If the second brother repairs the house, I will definitely support him. I will bring the horse to help and try to repair the house as soon as possible!"

Yu Li rolled her eyes.

She cared about the mare. She felt it was better if He Qiang didn't come to help, because there would be one less person wasting food! How could she not know what kind of person He Qiang was?

Even if he had been diligent recently, he was just willing to start supporting the family!

It's not like she didn't see that He Qiang would just lie down and wait for food and drink after returning home every day.

It's better to expect him to eat two less bowls of rice than to expect him to help.

""Qiangwaer, I may need your help to prepare grass for your horse. After all, I will be busy cooking for people and may not have time to prepare food for your horse. Otherwise, you don't have to help?"

Yu Li was being clever again.

Everyone saw through Yu Li's little thoughts and secretly despised her.

But He Qiang didn't care. He simply said,"How about this, fix it every day when you pull things, and I will take the horse to the mountain to eat grass after pulling."

Yu Li was proud in her heart, which saved her a lot of horse feed expenses!

He Liang was a little embarrassed by his wife's behavior. He opened his mouth and finally said,"Xiaoyong, Qiangwaer, as a brother, I want to say thank you first." He Yong didn't say anything. He didn't care about this thank you. Can it be eaten?

He Qiang didn't care.

He smiled and said,"If you can help, do your best!

It's all my duty.

" He Ming also whispered at this time:"Xiao Liang, while you are repairing the house, I will help you in the fields.

After the repair, you will have to rely on yourself.

" This sentence almost broke He Liang's defense.

He almost burst into tears.

He Liang's eyes were red, and he remained silent until the end of the show.

Yu Li went back to the house first, no longer wanting to act.

The others sent Old Lady He out.

It was already dark, and He Ming and others escorted Old Lady He home with candles.

They didn't dare to let the old lady fall, as it could easily cause a big accident.

After sending the old lady home, He Qiang looked at the sky and cursed in his heart.

It was dusk when he went out, and now it's completely dark!

I 'm afraid my wife will fall asleep while waiting!

It's rare for Xiao Hua to take the initiative this time, but now everything is messed up.

Tomorrow, Xiao Hua may not admit it.

Thinking that his rare opportunity to unlock the achievement was wasted like this, He Qiang felt heartbroken and almost couldn't breathe.

""It's been a while since we brothers have gathered together, right?"

He Ming suddenly said.

He Qiang's face froze.

He was still thinking about going back to wake Xiao Hua up. It was still early, and there was still hope if he woke him up.

If he was any later, he would definitely get scolded.

""Let's chat together. It's been a long time since we've been together."

He Liang said in a complicated tone.

He Ming sighed and said,"It's been a few years. It seems that we haven't played together since we got married."

He Yong was quite respectful to He Ming and agreed,"Yeah, the last time was when Qiangwaer got married."

He Liang suddenly said to the three of them,"As a brother, I want to apologize to you today. My wife really went too far."

The apology came unexpectedly, and the brothers fell into silence.
