I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm

Just as Zhou bent down to work, Zhao Li heard the noise and came over, "Mom..."

"Li'er? Is it really you? Why are you back?" Zhou turned around in surprise.

"Little sister..."

"sister."

Zhao Qian and Zhao Gong stood aside in embarrassment, looking at Zhao Li awkwardly.

Zhao Li didn't care about the embarrassment of her family. She saw that her mother and her elder brother and younger brother were all fine, but she didn't see Liu and Zhao Guoer. She asked anxiously, "Where are my elder sister-in-law and younger sister? Where is Cheng'er? Is there anything wrong with the family?"

"It's okay, it's okay. Everyone in the family is fine. Your sister-in-law took Cheng Ge'er and Guo'er to your grandmother Luo's house." Zhou clapped her hands and came over. "By the way, why are you back at this time?"

As soon as Zhou came over, Zhao Li grabbed her arm and buried her head in the crook of her neck. It was great that everyone in the family was fine.

Zhou patted Zhao Li's back with amusement and said angrily, "You kid, you're already married, but why do you still love to act like a spoiled brat in front of your mother? Aren't you ashamed?"

Zhao Li held back her tears and retorted: "Just because you're married, you're no longer a child in front of your mother?"

"Yes, yes, you will always be my child! Hehe..." Seeing her daughter acting so childishly, Zhou's heart softened all of a sudden, "Why are you still crying?"

Zhao Li secretly wiped away her tears: "I didn't cry, I was just worried about home, Mom, I missed you so much."

Zhou touched her daughter's nose and said gently, "Mother misses you, too."

Zhao Qian and Zhao Gong: “…” We are still here!

"Mom, take your sister to the main room to talk. It's a mess here. I'll go light a charcoal pot for you to warm up."

Only one corner of the main room collapsed, and the snow on the roof has been cleared, so it is relatively safe for now.

"Well," Zhou nodded: "Let's go to the main hall and rest for a while."

"it is good."

"By the way, where are Brother and Sister Qiulan?" Zhao Li suddenly remembered the two people who came back with her, and she immediately ran to the yard.

"Hey~" Zhou followed Zhao Li out and saw Boss Ye standing in the snow with a ox cart, frowning and looking anxiously towards the door.

Ye Qiulan kept pacing back and forth. When she saw Zhao Li and the others coming out, she hurried over to greet them, "Li'er, Auntie, is everyone at home okay?"

Zhao Li shook her head and said in a relaxed tone: "It's okay, the roof just collapsed."

Zhou was quite familiar with Ye Qiulan and Ye Lao Da. Ye Qiulan had always accompanied Zhao Li when she returned to her parents' home before, and Ye Lao Da had delivered charcoal to the family.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh. If you don't mind, go into the main room and take a rest."

"I'm glad you're okay. Big brother, let's go inside and talk." Ye Qiulan said to Ye Laoda behind her.

"I'll tie up the cow and come right away." Boss Ye also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, turned around, found a tree to tie the cow to, and then followed him into the main room.

Zhou briefly told them about the roof collapse this morning. Fortunately, no one in the family was hurt, but the house needed to be repaired if it wanted to be habitable.

Boss Ye listened to Zhou's words, then hesitantly spoke: "Aunt, why don't you move to my house and live there for a while. When the frost stops next year, I'll hire a few people to come and fix up the house, and you can move back when it's done."

"This..." Zhou was stunned and subconsciously wanted to refuse. Zhao Li shook Zhou's arm and said expectantly: "Mom, just listen to your eldest brother. There is an empty room at home for you to live in."

Zhou patted Zhao Li's hand and whispered, "Child, how can your mother's family live in your in-laws' house? This is inappropriate."

"What in-laws' house? That house was originally built by Ze'er for my sister-in-law, and we all live in my sister-in-law's house." Boss Ye scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Ah?" Zhou looked at Boss Ye in surprise. Does the eldest brother of the Ye family know what he is talking about?

Ye Qiulan smiled and said, "That's true. We are all benefiting from Li'er."

Zhao Qian lit a charcoal basin and came in: "Come and warm your hands first. I'll ask Gong Ge'er to boil some water."

"Stop busying yourself, we are not outsiders." Ye Laoda said: "You sit down too, I want to discuss something with you."

Zhao Qian: "What's wrong?"

Boss Ye mentioned to him that they should move to the Ye family first. Seeing Zhao Qian hesitate, Boss Ye asked, "Where are you going to stay tonight? If you are the only one, how can you make it there? Don't you think about the elderly and children?"

Zhao Qian: "...Mom, what do you think?"

"Oh! How about we move back to your grandma's place first..." Zhou was also hesitant. She was thinking about this when she was cleaning the house just now. No one in the rural area has an extra house for them to live in. If it really doesn't work, they can only go back and live there for a while.

Zhao Li pouted her lips, and the word "unhappiness" was clearly written on her face, "No, I know Second Aunt's temper very well. Aren't you asking for trouble by going there?"

Zhou: “…”

In the end, I decided to listen to Zhao Li. Rather than going to Old Zhao's house and getting rejected, it's better not to go.

While they were discussing things, Zhao Gong boiled some hot water and poured a bowl of hot water for everyone to drink.

Zhao Qian felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about going to the Ye family, but what else could he do? He couldn't let his mother and son suffer together, could he? At worst, he could just work harder and do more work for the Ye family.

Zhao Gong also felt uncomfortable. His attitude towards Ye Ze was not good. He didn't know how the old lady of the Ye family would look at them when they went to the Ye family. ⊙︿⊙

Ye Laoda said: "Then don't rest, let's pack up quickly, the days are short in winter, and it will be dark soon."

Boss Ye was also a person who couldn't sit still, so he just cleaned up with them. Zhao Qian quickly followed: "Brother Ye, you take a rest, we can do it ourselves."

Boss Ye: "Why are you being polite? Stop wasting time."

The main problem was that Zhao Qian and Liu's rooms collapsed the most severely. Without clearing away the debris on the floor, it would be impossible to enter the room.

The snow outside gradually stopped, but the sky was still very gloomy and the air was so cold that water almost turned into ice. However, the few people who were busy with their work did not feel too cold.

Zhao Li and Ye Qiulan helped Zhou pack her things, including bedding and clothes, and then the rice, flour, oil, salt, pots and pans in the kitchen.
