The young couple from the farm fights back

After taking a shower, Jiang Li went to the kitchen to take out the steamed mugwort from the pot and put it in the wooden shed for fumigation and sterilization.

Zhou Chunfeng felt much better. Looking at Jiang Li's thin and busy figure, running back and forth between the woodshed and the kitchen, he seemed to be doing nothing and felt very embarrassed.

He stood up, holding the child in his arms, and took the two older children back to the wooden shed, letting the third boy, who had just finished taking a bath, play on the kang.

Jiang Li was very busy and there was no drilling work going on near the wooden shed.

There was a river not far away. She first carried two loads of water to fill the kitchen water tank, and then took the family's clothes to the river to wash.

Zhou Chunfeng knew Jiang Li too well. If he went outside to help in the current situation, he would only be scolded and sent back to the house.

I simply lay back on the kang, closed my eyes and rested, so that my body could recover as quickly as possible. Before I knew it, I fell into a deep sleep.

"Brother~, brother~"

The sun was setting as Jiang Li hung the last piece of clothing on the wooden rack beside the shed. Hearing a sound, he turned around and saw Lin, accompanied by the second and third sons, coming to the door again.

It seems that this is to return the things to their eldest wife.

Lin's face looked very bad, and she tried her best to endure it, with her jawline tense.

The second son Zhou Yuncai and the third son Zhou Yunfu did not pay attention to Jiang Li at first, or rather, the Jiang family in the past was not worthy of being taken seriously by the Zhou family.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Li picked up the empty wooden basin and seemingly accidentally poured the water in the basin toward the door.

The second and third sons were caught off guard and their trouser legs were splashed wet. Lin stomped her heels and took two steps back.

Zhou Laosan was furious and pointed at Jiang Li and shouted, "Hey~, Jiang, you—you did it on purpose!"

"Sister-in-law, you may be dissatisfied with us brothers, but mother is at least our elder. How can you be so rude?" The speaker was Zhou Laoer, whose attitude was much better than Zhou Laosan's. He used extremely honest words to imply that Jiang Li was disrespectful to his elders.

Jiang Li shrugged nonchalantly: "Oh, what a coincidence, I didn't mean it."

Lin had never seen a woman as shameless as Jiang: "Jiang, are you trying to turn the tables?"

Jiang Li pressed the corners of his mouth in amusement, his chest trembling a little, "It's none of your business whether it's a riot or not. Why, aren't you here to return the money and land to our eldest wife?"

The third son, Zhou Yunfu, was the most intelligent of the Zhous. He had been cherished by Old Man Zhou since childhood, and even sent to a private school for a few years. Later, Old Man Zhou fell seriously ill, and Lin stopped providing the third son with tuition, so he could not continue his studies.

Seeing Jiang's change, a dark light flashed in his eyes. "Jiang, my second brother and I have heard from mother and younger sister about what happened today. My eldest brother is seriously ill. As your uncle, I won't bother with you, but you can't take your anger out on me. After all, no one wants my eldest brother to get sick."

Jiang Li rolled his eyes and said, "Stop talking nonsense. I've made it very clear to your eldest brother about what happened today. Either return the money and the land, or face the authorities."

"You, Jiang—"

"You are not allowed to call my wife by her last name!"

The resentment that Zhou Laosan had just mentioned was cut off by a majestic voice, accompanied by a light cough.

Zhou Chunfeng supported himself on the door frame with one hand and pressed his other hand against his mouth and nose with a fist.

His face was pale and tired, and his eyes were slightly raised, with a cold and chilling look in them.

They have been brothers for more than ten years. Not only has Zhou Laoer never seen Zhou Chunfeng's eyes like this, even Zhou Laosan, who has always been sharp-minded, feels that the boss at this time is different from before.

Jiang Li put down the wooden basin and walked forward. Seeing Zhou Chunfeng's expression, she couldn't help but frown.

This shouldn't be the case. He had clearly felt better after drinking the medicine, but how come he looked even worse after waking up from a sleep?

Jiang Ligu supported his hand and quietly pressed the pulse on his wrist.

After a while, Jiang Li understood and suppressed his thoughts.

Jiang Li had studied medicine for many years, but this was the first time he had ever taken a pulse. The so-called pulse reading was the rapid movement of six breaths.

In addition to the plague Zhou Chunfeng contracted, there was another unknown disease hidden in his body.

Fortunately, Jiang Li pressed down with his fingertips and captured the direction of the pulse.

It turns out to be spleen deficiency!

Seeing this, Zhou Laoer said in a concerned tone: "Big, big brother, what are you doing——"

I told them that the eldest brother just caught a cold, it didn't look like that.

Zhou Laosan wanted to speak, but pursed his lips. When he looked at his mother Lin, who also wanted to speak but was holding her breath, his words got stuck in his throat.

Today, I heard my mother and younger sister talk about the eldest wife's affairs. Although they were not aware of the documents for the division of the family property, even if there were any, Zhou Laosan believed that the eldest wife had already taken the five taels of silver and moved out of the Zhou family's old house, and the matter was settled.

Who would go back and ask for more after dividing the property?

Jiang Li supported Zhou Chunfeng and said slowly, "Come in."

"Ah."

Zhou Chunfeng's submissive attitude surprised the second and third brothers.

Once upon a time, the boss had been nice to Jiang.

Zhou Chunfeng glanced at the visitor calmly and said, "If you are here to return something, come in."

"Otherwise, get out~"

Zhou Chunfeng's last word in a bad tone made Zhou Laosan extremely angry.

Zhou Laoer was stunned for a moment, but he stopped his mother from cursing in time and persuaded her, "Mom, please calm down. Big brother is not feeling well right now, so he is upset. It was not intentional to offend you."

"Chi~"

Lin curled her lips, obviously dissatisfied with the second son's attitude of playing peacemaker, but she had to consider the purpose of their trip.

Jiang Li helped Zhou Chunfeng sit at a small square table at the entrance. Neither of the two benches was in good condition, and Zhou Chunfeng swayed twice as soon as he sat down.

Jiang Li straightened up and first looked at the three children who were lying on the kang in all directions and sleeping soundly.

He retracted his gaze and glared at the mother and her two children in front of the door: "If you have something to say, please talk about it. If you want to quarrel, please go back."

Zhou Laosan's face darkened. After all, he was only a seventeen-year-old boy, at the peak of his youthful vigor.

Zhou Lao Er pulled his arm and said with a smile, "Brother, sister-in-law~"

Zhou Chunfeng raised his eyelids and looked at Zhou Laoer who was speaking.

"My third brother and I came here right now. We heard about the documents that my eldest brother and his wife mentioned about dividing the family. We are all family. If there is anything, we can solve it behind closed doors. It's not good to really take it to the government and make a fool of our Zhou family."

Jiang Li sneered faintly and glanced at Lin with a cold gaze: "Why, you still don't want to return the separation fee you embezzled from our eldest wife?"

"Jiang—. Sister-in-law." Zhou Laosan spoke indignantly, then reluctantly changed his tone when he saw Zhou Chunfeng's dark eyes. "What you said is so mean. You said that the old man left behind the documents for the division of the family. Why didn't you and your eldest brother mention it two years ago, but bring it up now? Why don't you think about it? The family has already been divided. How can we go back and ask for it? If this gets out, everyone will lose face."

"It's a good thing that the eldest wife got five taels of silver. You and your eldest brother should have settled down and lived a good life. Look, if you cared about your eldest brother, how could he be so seriously ill? At this critical moment, why didn't you send your eldest brother to the town to find a doctor, but instead you were thinking about our Zhou family's stuff."

Zhou Laosan is worthy of being a man who has been to school. When it comes to eloquence and the art of yin and yang, no one in the Zhou family can match him.

Think about how many times the eldest wife had been squeezed out before, and they thought Zhou Laosan was on their side and admired him so much~

Laughing to death~

Snapped! ! !

Does Jiang Li seem like such an easy-going person?

It must not be.

The crisp sound of a slap hit Zhou Laosan's face and shocked the hearts of Lin's mother and two children.
