After the separation, I took my whole family to eat delicious food and drink spicy

Soon, Li Fang arrived with the village chief. Seeing the village chief, the villagers made way for him. The village chief followed Li Fang into Li Xiaoxiao's yard. Seeing Su still sitting on the ground howling, he asked directly, "What happened?"

Seeing the village chief coming, Li Xiaoxiao immediately said, "Grandpa Village Chief, you have to make the decision for us. We went to the town with great difficulty to buy some meat. Fang'er and Lin'er are growing, so they must eat some meat. I don't know how my grandma got to know that we bought meat, and she came to snatch it away. Woohoo, we already gave grandma pension money when we separated the family. Why should we give her the meat we bought with the money we worked so hard to earn? It would be better if we didn't separate the family at all." Li Xiaoxiao accused the Su family in tears. What a joke. Who can't act?

After hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, the villagers at the door seemed to think that Su had indeed gone too far. The village chief looked at Li Xiaoxiao's pitiful expression, and after hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, he also felt that this was the truth, "Su, since you have already separated, then each of you should live your own lives. The Bai family gave you the meat they bought as a favor, and not giving it to you was also their duty. You are a person in your forties, and you have the nerve to snatch food from a child. Look at how thin Li Fang and Li Linlin are, and you, as a grandmother, don't feel sorry for them."

Seeing that the village chief was also on Li Xiaoxiao's side, Su Shi immediately became angry. "I feel sorry for them, but who will feel sorry for me? After all, I am their grandmother. Isn't it their duty to respect me? And Li Xiaoxiao, as a junior, actually pointed a stick at me. Is that what's right?"

The village chief almost laughed out loud after hearing Su's shameless words. He hadn't expected Su to be so shameless. The villagers at the gate were also shocked by Su's roguery. Those who had initially supported Su began to sympathize with Li Xiaoxiao's family, thinking that it was Li Xiaoxiao's misfortune to have such an unreasonable woman.

"Su, if you keep on being so unreasonable, don't blame me for opening the ancestral hall." The village chief said with considerable authority. He intended to intimidate Su, so that she wouldn't cause trouble for him every now and then. Therefore, his words were a bit harsh. He only hoped that Su wouldn't cause trouble for Li Xiaoxiao's family again. Seeing the pitiful state of Li Xiaoxiao's family, the village chief thought he would help them if he could. This old woman Su was also someone who needed to be dealt with.

When Su heard about the ancestral hall opening, she was so frightened that she immediately stood up from the ground, patted the dust off her clothes, and ran home. It's no wonder Su was so scared. In ancient times, opening an ancestral hall was a major event, usually indicating that serious violations of clan rules or morals had occurred within the family, requiring public trial and punishment.

Su knew this very well. Although she was usually shrewd and mean, she had to curb her arrogance when faced with the family authority and the severe punishment she might suffer.

The village chief looked at Su's fleeing figure and shook his head gently, feeling both helpless and relieved. He turned to Li Xiaoxiao's family and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to prevent this kind of unreasonable behavior from happening again. But you should also remember that a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. Be tolerant when you can, and don't be too picky, lest you damage the relationship. And Xiaoxiao, don't ever again use a stick against your elders. It's disrespectful to them."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoxiao quickly wiped away her tears and looked at the village chief with gratitude: "Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief, we will remember this. In fact, we just want to live a peaceful life and don't want to cause any trouble. It's just that my grandmother... Alas, I hope we can live in peace in the future."

Li Fang and Li Linlin also stood by. Although they were still young, they could feel the difficulties at home. They held their parents' hands tightly, their eyes full of determination and support.

Seeing this, the village chief nodded with satisfaction, gave a few more instructions, and left. The villagers also dispersed, but many of them cast sympathetic glances at Li Xiaoxiao's family before leaving, and some even whispered about the Su family's faults and spoke up for Li Xiaoxiao's family.

After everyone left, Li Xiaoxiao, who disapproved of Bai Shi, said, "Xiaoxiao, you were too impulsive today."

"Mom, I just wanted to scare my grandma. You know, my grandma is soft-hearted and afraid of hard things. If we tell her to lie down, she will only get worse."

"Xiaoxiao, mother is doing this for your own good. If others see you hitting your breasts with a stick, who knows what kind of gossip will spread, which will be bad for your future marriage." Bai explained.

"Don't worry, Mom. I'm not worried about that. Right now, I just want to make more money so you can live a good life. We can talk about other things later."

"Mom, sister, and younger sister, don't worry, I will grow up quickly and take care of you." Li Fang patted his chest and promised.

Seeing Li Fang acting like a little adult, Li Xiaoxiao found it a little funny. She reached out and pinched Li Fang's face, "Then sister will wait for Fang'er to grow up quickly."

"Yeah." Li Fang responded.

"Mom, let's get some water to water the vegetables in the garden before it gets dark."

"Okay, Mom will go get the bucket."

There is a public pond not far from the backyard. It is usually used for water for nearby villagers to irrigate the crops and vegetables in the fields. This is still beneficial, at least it makes it more convenient to water the vegetable fields.

The mother and daughter went to the backyard. Bai and Li Xiaoxiao went to fetch water together, while Li Fang and Li Linlin helped pull out the weeds. Bucket after bucket, the mother and daughter went back and forth several times, finally watering the entire vegetable patch thoroughly.

The sun set in the west, and a brilliant sunset glow appeared on the horizon. Li Xiaoxiao straightened up, patted his waist, and looked at the moist vegetable patch with satisfaction.

"I'm so tired, but fortunately I've finished watering the vegetables." Bai said while panting.

"Mom, thank you for your hard work! I estimate that in about ten days, those cabbages will be ready to eat. When these vegetables are ripe, they will definitely grow very well." Li Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"Well, I can take some to the market and sell them, and exchange them for some silver." Bai's eyes were full of anticipation.

"By the way, Mom, I have an idea. We can grow more vegetables, and then after we sell all the dried bamboo shoots and get the money, we can catch some chicks to raise. This way, we can not only sell vegetables, but also eggs." Li Xiaoxiao said excitedly.

"This is a good idea, but where do we get so much time and energy?" Mrs. Bai was a little worried.

"Hey, I can help! I'm grown up now and can share some of the housework." Li Fang volunteered.

"I can also help feed the chickens!" Li Linlin shouted, raising her hand.

Bai looked at the sensible children and felt warm in her heart. "Okay, let's give it a try."

The family sat together, discussing future plans, and laughter echoed in the courtyard.
