Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

When Cui Laoer heard this number, his heart trembled.

The two taels of silver he brought back this time should be enough to make up for it.

Yu kindly said, "The price of grain has increased recently. A pound of fine grain has risen to 25 wen."

Feng would not let herself suffer a loss, so the 200 kilograms of grain she exchanged were all fine grains.

“25 wen?!!”

One catty is 25 wen, so two hundred catties is... five taels of silver!

Five taels can buy another three acres of land!

"Since we've split up, your mother and I can't interfere in your affairs. Go home and figure it out."

Old Man Cui looked at his confused second son, not knowing what to say.

You have to live your own life. If you keep controlling others, you will end up making enemies. What's more, the second son is only interested in being good to Feng and won't listen to anyone.

Erlang kept his children under his own supervision, and as for the second brother and his wife, he let them do whatever they wanted.

Cui Laoer hung his head, no longer having the momentum he had just now. He turned around and walked back.

I don’t have the mood to care whether the children stay or go.

I had originally planned to harvest the crops in the fields when I came back this time. Together with the two taels of silver I earned this time, it would be enough to last until the beginning of next spring, and then I would go out to sea after sowing in the spring.

I didn't expect the house to become such a mess.

If the land cannot be redeemed, it will be a problem how to live in the future.

Feng was anxious: "His father, Silang and Xiaowu still have four acres of land!"

Cui Lao Er paused and looked at Feng in confusion.

Four acres of land would cost at least five taels of silver. Mrs. Feng was so poor that she had to sell her land for grain. How could her two children have the money to buy four acres of land?

"Really? I'm not lying," Feng said aggrievedly. "It's these four acres of land that caused all this trouble. They have the land, so they don't listen to me. They didn't even leave any chestnuts for me when the village distributed them. I'm almost being driven to death by them."

Xiao Wu clenched his fists: "You are talking nonsense. It was you who kicked us out."

"You're still being stubborn! Where's Erlang? Is this how you manage them?" Cui Laoer shouted angrily, "If I don't come back, are you going to starve your mother to death?"

There was only disappointment on Erlang's face.

"They also stole my newly made quilt. I couldn't bear to use it." Feng muttered softly.

Cui Lao Er was so angry that he slapped Er Lang and said, "You are rebelling."

Boss Cui quickly stopped him: "Second brother, why are you hitting the child? If you have something to say, please talk to him."

"Brother, please let go. I am teaching my own child a lesson, so don't worry about it."

Even though Yu had a good temper, she was still a little unhappy: "Second brother, you can't say that. Erlang and the others took the quilt, but they also gave your wife three pounds of food. Besides, why didn't you ask why they took it?"

With Boss Cui beside her, Yu felt more confident when speaking.

And since the children moved back to the old house, she gradually realized that she had wronged them before. These children have good character, unlike Feng.

Old man Cui ate two big crabs in the evening, and there is still a lingering taste of seafood in his mouth.

It’s such a great atmosphere for the whole family to gather around a big table and eat crabs happily.

Look at the smoky and chaotic scene before you.

An old face is getting darker and darker.

"What's going on? I heard the noise from your house from far away."

The village head walked in with a frown on his face. When he saw Cui Lao Da and Cui Lao Er, who had not returned home for a long time, he immediately smiled.

"So it's you two guys who are back. No wonder you didn't go to the fields to catch locusts. When did you come back?"

Old man Cui forced a smile. After all, it was a family scandal and he didn't want others to see it.

"Just got back and was chatting. I'll go now."

The village head noticed that the atmosphere was not right, but he did not point it out.

Every family has its troubles.

"I specially left the gong for your family. Hurry up, or others will be anxious waiting."

Old Man Cui called out to the others: "Let's go to the fields. Boss, help your wife too."
