Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

The next day, when Chen Lang got up, he found the house very quiet.

The kitchen was locked again, and the houses where Old Man Chen, Chen Sanlang and others lived were also padlocked.

It seems that my performance yesterday made my family very angry. They all left home early in the morning and didn't even leave breakfast for me.

However, it is not necessary to eat breakfast at home. The reason why Chen Lang eats breakfast at home every day is simply because he doesn't want to let them get away with it. He hands over more than ten or twenty copper coins every day, so he has to eat something in return.

In addition, Qian's cooking skills were quite poor. The steamed buns she made were almost harder than stone and were very rough to bite.

If there is no food at home, then go to the county town to eat.

But before going, you have to bring your wife and children with you.

After traveling through time for so long, he only took his wife and children to visit the county town once. This is definitely a dereliction of duty as a husband!

Even the last time I went to the county town, I just bought a few things in the shops, which couldn't be called shopping at all.

I will make up for this regret today!

Chen Lang changed into clean clothes, put on the shoes made by his wife, and walked towards Shanghe Village happily.

Li Xiuzhi didn't expect Chen Lang to come so early today. She was stunned when she saw him.

Guoguo, who was washing her face, threw away her handkerchief on the spot when she saw Chen Lang, flew into Chen Lang's arms, and kept acting coquettishly.

Zhao Chunhua came out of the kitchen to greet Li Xiuzhi for dinner. Seeing Chen Lang at the gate, she was also stunned for a moment and said, "Brother-in-law, didn't you go fishing today?"

Chen Lang picked up Doudou and said with a smile, "Let's take a day off today. I plan to take Xiuzhi and Guoguo to visit the county town."

Zhao Chunhua said, "Let's eat first. It will take an hour and a half to get there."

"Okay, I'll trouble you, sister-in-law." Chen Lang said, "Why don't you see Xiaohu?"

"Oh, there was a funeral in Xiahe Village, so he rushed over early in the morning," Zhao Chunhua explained.

While eating breakfast, Li Xiuzhi suddenly said, "Erlang, I'll go back with you today."

Chen Lang paused for a moment as he picked up the food and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Xiuzhi hesitated to speak.

Zhao Chunhua was impatient and said, "Let me speak for my sister. Someone in the village was gossiping yesterday, saying that my sister came to live with us just to avoid work and leave all the housework to her mother-in-law. She's an unfilial daughter-in-law."

"I'm embellishing it a bit. Actually, those who spread the gossip were saying really bad things."

Hearing this, Chen Lang felt even more fortunate that he had refuted the rumors in the village yesterday.

The gossip has spread to the next village. If it is not refuted, it will probably spread directly to the county town in a few days.

Zhao Chunhua continued, "Actually, I want to say that there's absolutely no need for me to pay attention to this gossip. First of all, everyone in our village knows exactly who I am, and the person who spread the gossip was severely reprimanded on the spot. Secondly, this gossip must have been spread by your family, just to force me to go back. If I really go back, who knows how much torture I'll face."

"My brother-in-law has to go out and earn money, so he can't be by my side all the time. I'm not good at arguing with people, so I just have to swallow my anger. If this goes on for a long time, I'll get sick even if I'm not sick at all."

Li Xiuzhi hurriedly said, "Chunhua, don't say that."

"As a daughter-in-law, I've been away from home for a long time and haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a daughter-in-law. It's definitely my fault, and it's normal for my family to have opinions."

Zhao Chunhua immediately retorted, "Bullshit! Are you the only daughter-in-law in the Chen family? Isn't the third son's wife a daughter-in-law? I've met that Qian woman twice. She's got a sharp, mean face. If I were to say, these gossips are most likely spread by her."

"She just wants you to go back and do housework and farm work so she can have some free time! Sister, listen to me, you just live here. If she dares to come to your house and ask for you, I'll scold her to death!"

Chen Lang didn’t know much about Zhao Chunhua before, but now it seems that this sister-in-law is very reliable and is really protective of the people she cares about.

Chen Lang said, "Actually, it's OK for Xiuzhi to go back, because I'm going to split up the family soon."

"When the time comes, Qian will be the only one to handle the Chen family's housework and farm work. It will have nothing to do with Xiuzhi."

Zhao Chunhua said in surprise, "Brother-in-law? Are you serious? If you split up while my parents are still alive, how are you going to stay in the village in the future?"

I used to think Chen Lang had grown up and woke up, but then he did this.

As long as parents are still together, the family will not be divided. Even children understand this truth. How could Chen Lang, as a scholar, not understand it?

Moreover, when it comes to dividing the family property, no matter whether it is proposed by the parents or the children, the children are always the ones who get hurt in public opinion, because most neighbors will think that the children are unfilial and that is why the family property needs to be divided.

There is only one situation in which the family can be divided, that is when the children are abandoned by their parents without having done anything wrong.

But this situation is too rare, especially in this era where whatever parents do is right. If children are abandoned, it must be the children's fault, and the parents are not wrong.

Chen Lang said, "Don't worry. I've prepared a perfect plan. Even if we split up, no one will say a word against me. Instead, the entire Chen family will be labeled as cruel and vicious."

Zhao Chunhua's eyes widened. "Is this true?"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "Just wait and see what happens."

After breakfast, Li Xiuzhi packed her luggage and said goodbye to Li Xiaohu and his family.

Li Lanlan cried loudly in Zhao Chunhua's arms, and kept shouting, "Sister Guoguo, don't go. I can't bear to leave you."

Guoguo was not that sad at first, because she could go home and be with her father. But Lanlan's crying made her sad too.

So the two little people hugged each other and cried in the yard, crying so hard that their hearts were broken and they couldn't bear to part.

The sadness in the adults' hearts was washed away by the tears of the two little ones.

In the end, Li Xiuzhi ran out holding Guoguo, and Zhao Chunhua picked up Lanlan and ran into the house.

Chen Lang told Li Xiaohu's father-in-law and mother-in-law to take care of themselves, then turned around and chased after his wife.

There was no boat at the pier at this point, so the family of three could only walk along the official road to the county town to see if they could find a ride on the way.

After walking on the official road for a while, Chen Lang saw that there was no one around, so he took Guoguo from Li Xiuzhi's arms, and then held Li Xiuzhi's hand very naturally.

The movements are as smooth as brocade satin!

Li Xiuzhi was a little embarrassed at first, but she had no intention of pulling her hand back. Instead, after walking a dozen steps, she took the initiative to hold Chen Lang's hand.

Feeling the warmth of Chen Lang's palm, Li Xiuzhi's heart was like a rippling lake, with ripples layered and endless.

At this moment, it doesn’t matter whether there is a demon possessing you or you are a prodigal son returning home.

Li Xiuzhi only knew that she really fell in love with the man in front of her.

At the same time, I also understand that the feeling of liking someone is so wonderful!
