Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 71: Outsmarting Aunt

Then, she walked towards her main house, shaking her big and thick waist like a bucket.

The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren cleaned for an hour and finally put the house in order.

All the furniture is arranged just as it was when my parents were still alive.

An Yue picked up the rough cloth she used to wash her face, brushed off the dust on her body, and then patted An Nian.

After my grandpa Jiang Wuwen finished cleaning up, he sat down on a low stool in the room, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and slowly wrapped it up.

After An Yue brushed the dust off An Nian's body, she patted her grandfather again.

Since entering the An family yard, my grandfather Jiang Wuwen has become silent and solemn.

At this time, An Chengde walked into the room slowly, carrying a pot of water and two teacups, and said, "Brother Jiang, have a drink of hot water!"

Grandfather Jiang Wuwen nodded at him and said "hmm".

An Yue held An Nian's hand and said, "Grandfather, you take a rest in the house first. Yue Yue will take Nian Nian to the vegetable garden to take a look."

Grandfather nodded to An Yue, then turned back and continued smoking his pipe.

The brother and sister walked quickly out of the house and went out into the yard.

When I arrived at the vegetable garden, I saw that the ground was full of vegetables.

An Nian was also a little surprised when he saw it, and asked, "Sister, is this land ours?"

An Yue didn't say anything, just nodded.

An Yue looked at the dividing line again. It had been dug up into a mess. How could there be any dividing line at all?

An Yue was furious and ran towards home.

An Nian couldn't keep up and shouted, "Sister, wait for Nian Nian."

An Yue had no choice but to turn back and go home holding An Nian's hand.

The brother and sister went to the yard.

When I walked into the house, I saw my grandfather An Chengde still sitting in the room.

An Yue looked at An Chengde coldly and asked, "Grandfather, who grows the vegetables in my family's field?"

An Chengde said calmly, "That was planted by your aunt."

An Yue took An Nian's hand and walked towards her uncle's mother's house.

An Yue and An Nian walked to the west end of the yard and saw their aunt-in-law grinding rice with an old woman sitting next to her.

According to the original owner's memory, the woman's name was Qian.

An Yue said obediently: "Granny Qian is fine!"

Qian smiled and praised An Yue, "Good, good, the little girl is very polite."

Qian is the big mouth in Baili Village. Anything that happens in someone's family will spread throughout the village in minutes.

Of course, her big mouth is not for nothing, she is a famous matchmaker.

An Yue thought, since you, Zhang, dare to occupy my vegetable garden, don't blame me for being rude.

She asked her aunt Zhang righteously, "Aunt, are you the one who planted the vegetables in Yueyue's field?"

Zhang turned around and saw that it was Anyun and she was instantly shocked.

But he quickly adjusted himself, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Yueyue, Niannian, why did you two come back?"

An Yue looked at her with a fake smile and didn't respond to her.

Seeing that An Yue was not going to answer, she said awkwardly, "Uh... Auntie, I think your piece of land is empty anyway. If it stays empty for a long time, weeds will grow on it!"

"So... I thought of growing some vegetables there. This can also be considered as helping you two siblings take care of the vegetable garden."

An Yue nodded and said, "That's right, auntie! You've worked so hard, auntie!"

An Yue thought, if you want to play the emotional card, then I will accompany you to the end.

She began to squeeze out tears, covering her face and crying, saying, "Auntie knows that my sister and I have lost our parents, and she loves us very much, so she helped us grow these vegetables. Yueyue is very touched!"

Zhang felt something was not right and wanted to say something, but seeing Qian standing beside her, she had to swallow the words back.

Qian shook her head, looked at the siblings and sighed, "Alas...they are two pitiful children."

She turned to Zhang and said, "How could Tianshun and his wife have such a bad fate? They passed away without leaving behind these two grown children. It's really pitiful!"

Although Zhang realized that An Yue's words were not right, she could do nothing about it.

With Qian in front of her, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and smile, "Haha... That's right! How pitiful!"

An Yue guessed that Qian came here to propose marriage to Zhang's son, An Yue's cousin. She probably didn't dare to make a fuss in front of the matchmaker.

An Yue asked in tears: "Aunt, thank you for your hard work in growing vegetables for us, but...just in a few days, you won't chop down all the vegetables in the field, right?"

Zhang was very passive, so she had to grit her teeth and fake a smile, "How could that be possible! How could my aunt be that kind of person, right?"

"Yes, yes, my aunt is such a virtuous person, she will definitely be a good mother-in-law in the future!"

Qian laughed and said, "Yes! She is a good mother-in-law."

An Yue wiped her tears and said, "Grandma Qian, Auntie, Yueyue will not disturb the conversation between the two elders."

An Yue bowed respectfully, then took An Nian's hand and walked towards her home.

When the brother and sister returned home, their grandfather An Chengde had already left, leaving their maternal grandfather sitting alone in the room.

An Yue vaguely learned from the original owner's memory that her mother used to like to hoard salt. In this regard, An Yue and her had some coincidences.

According to her recollection, she usually put the excess salt in a salt shaker and placed it in a secret compartment behind the stove.

An Yue followed her memory to look for it, and she actually found it.

Since we have salt at home, we might as well let my aunt-in-law suffer the loss this time.

An Yue said: "Grandfather, let's go and cut the vegetables from the field."

Grandfather was very surprised and asked, "Yueyue, where are the vegetables in the field?"

"My aunt secretly occupied our vegetable plot and planted vegetables there. She even dug up the boundary line that was drawn when the land was divided."

After saying that, An Yue found two hoes from her home and gave them to her grandfather. An Yue put on the backpack, and the three of them walked towards the vegetable field.

Although the boundary line was dug by them, the demarcation line can still be seen clearly at a glance.

An Yue and her grandfather only need to dig out the previous dividing line again.

An Nian was chopping vegetables with a sickle.

While swinging the hoe, An Yue said to An Nian, "Niannian, just pick up the big vegetables and chop them. Be careful not to chop your hands."

An Yue continued, "It's still early now. We can chop the vegetables home and dry them in the sun until the afternoon. Then we can pickle them with salt and put them in jars at home. When we come back after the New Year, we'll have pickled vegetables to eat."

An Nian understood what she meant and nodded with a smile, saying, "Okay! I'll do whatever my sister says."

Grandfather waved his hoe and dug the ground, saying, "Yueyue, Grandfather is still worried about you coming back. This family is not easy to deal with."
