In this case, she didn't need to be polite. "Yanyan is different from my sister-in-law. After she married into the family, she became a member of the family. Unlike my sister-in-law, although she married into the Su family, her heart is still in her parents' home. Didn't you want my son-in-law to take the food from your parents' home a few days ago, but I didn't agree?"

"If you want to hold a grudge, just hold it against me. I was thinking that we are all members of the Su family. Even if you ask your son-in-law, you should ask our Su family members first. Your eldest uncle and third uncle are all closer to you than your mother's family, so you should ask them first."

When Uncle Su heard that Aunt Su had not learned her lesson and was meddling in her mother's family affairs behind his back, he became furious and wanted to teach her a lesson without any hesitation.

Grandma Su also looked at her eldest daughter-in-law gloomily. It seemed that she really had a short memory.

Aunt Su was panicked and was about to beg for mercy when Grandpa Su spoke.

"Okay, stop arguing."

He said to Su's mother, "This is our first time visiting our in-laws' house, so we should bring a generous gift. You can take the old hen, the second daughter-in-law."

Mother Su quickly responded: "Hey, I'll listen to Dad."

Then Grandpa Su turned his gaze to Uncle Su, "Let's go to the He family today to take care of the food issue, and we'll deal with the rest when we come back."

Then he stood up and said, "Okay, it's getting late, and you guys are carrying things and walking slowly, so let's get going quickly."

Uncle Su glared at Aunt Su hatefully, but he also knew that the most important thing today was to transport the grain to the county.

He stopped arguing with Aunt Su, responded to Grandpa Su, picked up the torch, carried the burden on his own, and went out first.

Father Su also picked up the burden and followed.

He waved the whip in the air, and the old cow slowly followed him.

The remaining Su Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang looked at each other, then picked up their loads and hurried over.

Su's mother walked at the end, carrying a basket on her back and holding an old hen in her hands.

A few people hurried on their journey under the moonlight, and when they could see the road clearly at dawn, they extinguished the torches.

The road was actually not empty, as many people were gathering from all directions carrying things on their backs and shoulders.

Because she had come to the county last year to find out about her son-in-law's character, she was not unfamiliar with the place where her daughter lived now.

So after entering the county town, she led the way.

Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, as soon as Su's mother walked into the street, she spotted her daughter from the crowd.

She waved and yelled, “Yanyan!”

Su Yan saw Su's father and mother from a distance and ran over to take the things from Su's mother: "Mom, let me take it. You must be tired on the way. Let's go to the house and rest first."

He An also reached out to his father-in-law to take the carrying pole: "Dad, go into the house and have a drink of water first."

Su's mother dodged Su Yan's hand and refused to let her take it. She also refused on behalf of Su's father: "We are not tired, we can just take it ourselves. Ah An, let your father choose. He picks these things at home every day, so what's so tiring about it?"

Father Su took a silent look and said nothing to expose his wife.

It takes more than half an hour to travel from the village to the county by ox cart. They were carrying things here today and it took them only now to arrive.

We stopped several times along the way.

But his wife has always been very capable, so he didn't dare to say anything.

He Anke would not take his mother-in-law's polite words seriously. Without waiting for his father-in-law to refuse, he directly took his father-in-law's shoulder pole and jumped up, "Dad has been carrying it all the way, I'll do it now."

Seeing his positive attitude, Su's mother did not refuse and looked at her son-in-law with a smile.

He has good conditions, is handsome, and knows the rules.

Oh, her daughter is so lucky!

He An then called out to Uncle Su and Su Dalang, Su Erlang and Su Sanlang who were following behind him: "Uncle, eldest brother, second brother and third brother, Yanyan has prepared tea for you early in the morning, please come in and have some tea."

As he said this, he carried the load and led the way in front, while Su Yan followed behind holding Su's mother's hand.

The others followed suit.

After leading people into the house, He An first asked people to put the grain in the front yard and unload the ox cart and put it in the yard first.

The cows were tied under the date trees, and hay and water were brought to feed them.

Su Yan found a few stools for people to sit on, and went into the house to pour tea.

I can’t stand drinking hot tea in this weather, but drinking cold water directly is not good either.

So Su Yan boiled water early, soaked tea leaves in it and let it cool down, waiting for people to come so that they can drink it directly to cool down.

Mr. and Mrs. Su were really thirsty, so they sat down, took the tea and drank it up in gulps.

After they had drunk enough, they started chatting again.

Su Yan hadn't seen her parents for a long time, so she asked about their family's recent situation.

Mother Su said, "Don't worry, everything is fine at home. God has blessed us with good crops this year, and the harvest is good. We received a letter a few days ago saying that our son-in-law had harvested crops. That night, your grandfather was so happy that he ate two big bowls of rice!"

Su Yan was happy for her parents when she heard this: "I calculated that you were supposed to come, but I haven't seen you yet. I was thinking of asking someone to send you a message."

Mother Su waved her hands. "Hey, it's nothing. It's just that your second aunt's grandson got married in the village, and we had to go to help. That delayed us for two days. Otherwise, we would have come a long time ago."

He looked around again and saw the wooden boxes containing grain. He said in disbelief, "You really opened a grain store? Oh, we couldn't believe it when the message came back that day."

"What grain store? You can see that we only sell these three things. It's just a small shop."

Su's mother disagreed with him. "Why can't you call it a grain store? You've just started this business. After two years, when the business is good, you can slowly add other things. I don't understand business, but I think it's like building a house. You have to lay a solid foundation and then take your time."

He An nodded in agreement, "Yes, Yanyan and I think so too. We are still young, so we can take it one step at a time. We are not afraid of taking a long time."

Mother Su clapped her hands: "That's right, as long as you two work hard, nothing can't be accomplished."

He An nodded in agreement.

Father Su heard them finish talking before interrupting and asking, "Where are you going to store the food? I don't think it can be stored here, but it won't work if it's outside. The food won't be able to withstand the wind and rain."

He An explained, "The old grain at home is all full, so we can only put two or three stone of new grain in there. The rest will be taken to my grandfather later. He has room for it. I told him in advance."

Su's mother said, "I said we were going to visit our in-laws later. Great, let's go together."

Seeing that everyone had rested for a while, Father Su raised his hand and directed Su Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang: "You go and pick up the food, and we'll push the cart over for the rest."

Su Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang had no objection either. They walked forward, picked up their loads and stood up and left.

He An went to the yard to push the cart, and Su's father and uncle Su helped to push it.

Su's mother carried the backpack and the basket and went out. Su Yan locked the door and followed her mother, taking the basket from her.
