Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

"Or we can live in the farm on the ranch." Xiao Wen said.

Xiaolan didn't say anything, as if Xiaowen had just made the decision. In fact, this matter was decided when Xiaolan and the others came to the old Sheng family. The farmers and land on the ranch are under the management of Xiaolan's family. Let Sheng Kai and Shen move out of the old house, not just for Cui. In fact, Xiaolan and Xiaowen want to keep them under control. To prevent Sheng Kai from doing all kinds of unruly behaviors in the future, such as hanging out with the gangsters on the street, wandering around visiting neighbors all day, etc. The operation is much better in the ranch than in Shengjia Village.

Sheng Kai seemed to have not expected Xiao Wen to make such an arrangement. He asked in surprise, "Go to the ranch? Is it the only way to go to the ranch?"

Xiaowen stared at him but didn't say anything.

"If we go to the ranch, let me think about it carefully." Sheng Kai couldn't guess Xiaowen's thoughts, so he called Shen over to discuss it together.

Saying that he discussed it with Shen was just an excuse made by Sheng Kai. All the important matters in the family were decided by Sheng Kai.

The ranch belongs to Sheng Xuan, but it is quite far from here. However, I heard that it is quite rich, and the residents of the farm on that ranch all rely on Sheng Xuan for their livelihood. Sheng Xuan is now wealthy and doesn't go to that ranch often... If he moves there, as Sheng Xuan's second brother, he can be considered half the owner of the ranch... In front of those farmers, he can also be half a head taller than them. At that time, if he orders them to do something, can they not listen? If he wants to eat meat and drink wine, can they not give it to him?

Sheng Kai was getting happier and happier as he thought about it. These were just the superficial things he could think of. After all was over, the benefits would definitely be far more than these. "In my heart, I really don't want to leave our village, but since Xiao Wen has spoken, as his uncle, I must give him the face. Let's go to the ranch."

Xiao Lan saw that Sheng Kai's mouth was almost stretched to his ears, and she thought about it and knew what Sheng Kai was happy about. Let him be happy as he thinks he is, because when he gets to the ranch, he will have no say over anything.

Xiao Wen didn't care about Sheng Kai's pride at all, and said, "Then it's settled."

When Cui heard this, she wished Sheng Kai would move out immediately, "Hurry up and move out today!"

Sheng Kai didn't pay any attention to Cui Shi at all, and directly said to Xiao Wen, "Then where will I live when I go to the ranch?"

"You don't have to worry about this. There will be a house for you to live in when you get there." The purpose of letting Sheng Kai and Shen move to the ranch was to allow the people on the farm to look after them, but Xiao Wen naturally couldn't tell him the truth.

"Hey, Xiaowen, you are going to give your second uncle a house to live in..." Sheng Kai said with a smile, "No, no, how can your second uncle want your house? Keep your house for him first, and I will live in it in the future... Now," Sheng Kai turned his head and looked at Cui, "Old lady, the house in this yard is left to me by my father. If you don't let me live in it now, I can't lose the house! In the future, I have to live in the house my father left for me!"

Everyone in the old house didn't understand what Sheng Kai meant. Everyone was puzzled. Didn't he agree to go to the ranch just now? Why did he say he wanted to live in the old house now? Everyone looked at him involuntarily, waiting for him to explain everything to them.

Sheng Kai did not disappoint everyone and said directly, "I'm going to tear down the house that belongs to me in the yard, and I'm going to build a house on the ranch that is exactly the same as this one! It will be just like living in the house my father left for me."

Xiaowen offered him a house to live in, but he refused it and insisted on going through so much trouble to tear down the house. Thinking of Sheng Kai's laziness and his intention in doing so, he realized that he was doing it on purpose to irritate Cui Shi. He gave her the house just to make things difficult for her.

Cui Shi also understood what he meant, and then she glared at Sheng Kai angrily, "Let him tear it down, including the house and the garden, as well as his pigpen and chicken coop. Take them all away, don't leave even a blade of grass behind!"

Cui and Sheng Kai both deeply dislike each other, and the two have reached the point where they are incompatible.

"Since you said so, I will definitely not leave a single blade of grass for you." Sheng Kai said directly.

Xiaolan and her family did not eat lunch at the old house, but went home directly. Shengkai and Cui had agreed in the morning to come to the house in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Sheng Hao also went to the old house, saying that he wanted to help out. Although Sheng Hao worked in a tofu workshop, he still informed Sheng Xuan about this matter, and Sheng Xuan did not stop him. After all, it was a big deal for farmers to demolish or build houses, not to mention brothers, even villagers would go to help.

After lunch, Su Ye came to report to Sheng Xuan that the helpers from the old house had arrived and were about to tear down the house, waiting for Sheng Xuan's order. Demolition and construction are both big things, and they all have their own rules. Sheng Xuan went to the old house, and when he saw that everyone had started working, he came back.

Xiao Lan did not go over. She was looking at the account book at home. Zhang was doing needlework nearby. The mother and daughter chatted casually, "...The house over there was demolished, and the wall in the garden at the back was also demolished. It's good to demolish it. This way the yard will be bigger, just right for growing some vegetables..."

After a while, Xiao Ye came. It turned out that Xiao Ye went to the old house with Sheng Hao. Sheng Hao went there to help, while Xiao Ye went there to join in the fun. "Sister Xiaolan, let me tell you something. The old lady wants to keep Xiao Cao," Xiao Ye said as she sat on the end of the kang and took the bowl of tea handed over by the little girl. She took a sip and said.

"Old lady, do you want to keep Xiaocao?" After hearing Xiaoye's words, Zhang stopped the work at hand and asked.

Since the people from the old house came back from Hejian County, Xiaocao has been following Cui. Because Chunhua left, Cui lacked someone to use at will. Although Xu was the granddaughter-in-law, she was too smart and had her own ideas, so Cui couldn't completely control her. Xiaocao was an obedient and not very smart child. Cui was used to ordering her around over the years, so she couldn't leave Xiaocao.

Sheng Kai also saw this, and he was going to the ranch now, on the one hand to piss off the old lady, and on the other hand, Xiao Cao was growing better and better, and it was not troublesome to keep her by his side, and he could soon exchange her for a large betrothal gift. Moreover, if Xiao Cao went to the ranch, she could light the fire and cook for them, and serve them, so Sheng Kai made a little calculation in his mind and decided to take Xiao Cao with him.

"Will Xiaocao's father agree?" Xiaolan also asked.

"He didn't agree. He's arguing with the old lady right now." Xiao Ye said. Then Xiao Ye told the mother and daughter about the negotiation between Sheng Kai and the old lady.

In the old house, Sheng Kai and his helpers were tearing down the house. Sheng Hao, Sheng Nuo, and Sheng Hong were also helping. The difference was that Sheng Hao was on the roof, while Sheng Nuo and Sheng Hong were just helping with some work underground. Sheng Kai was also on the roof at this time. The noise of tearing down the house was already quite loud. Sheng Kai was deliberately talking and laughing loudly, and he threw the tiles on the roof to the ground, which made the noise even louder.

Cui was originally sitting cross-legged on the kang, watching through the window as they were robbing the house, but Sheng Kai was making too much noise, so Cui got off the kang, walked to the door, leaned against the door frame, and watched them work. Cui didn't say anything, just watched.

The farmers were honest and kind-hearted. When they saw Cui's unhappy face, an old farmer said to his companions, "Let's all be more diligent. The old man is old and he thinks we are making too much noise."

Therefore, everyone slowed down their movements, and those who came to help were all young and strong men. When facing an old woman like Cui, everyone was willing to give in. The reason why everyone was willing to do so was partly because of Cui's identity and age, and partly because everyone had noticed something was wrong with Sheng Kai. In Shengjia Village, it was no secret that Sheng Kai and Cui didn't get along. Everyone came to help out with good intentions, and naturally didn't want to see Cui and Sheng Kai quarreling again because of this.

Sheng Kai looked at the actions of these helpers. Although he was not happy in his heart, he had to restrain his actions. In front of everyone, he did not dare to be so presumptuous to Cui as he was in private. Even though everyone knew that Cui was not good and that he had been wronged, in this era, filial piety was a heavy burden. In addition, Cui was old, so everyone would definitely sympathize with and favor Cui. Although Sheng Kai was a scoundrel, he was not a fool. He certainly knew that being outside was different from being at home, so he did not dare to make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
