Farming and reading family
Chapter 78 Not Now
The people in the cave didn't say anything else, and watched Chen Ke walk into the rain on the mud.
In fact, Chen Ke had been thinking about it for a long time, thinking about how to remind the head of the village to let the villagers prepare, and it would be best to move to the old village in advance.
But he never thought of a solution.
There is also the matter of my uncle's family. How can I draw a clearer line between myself and his family so that if something really happens, his family will not be implicated.
He thought about it carefully and realized that he was not as good as his third brother, and even worse than his wife in this regard.
It was raining and there were few people on the road in the village. Chen Ke originally wanted to go to his uncle's house to remind his uncle to inspect Yutouba more often, but he ended up at the door of the village head's house.
I thought this matter was directly related to Baotou Village, so I decided to talk to the village head first.
But after walking around, his shoes were soaked and his feet were covered in mud, he still couldn't make up his mind.
Every time this happened, he would recall some things from his previous life, and feel distraught and powerless.
Especially when standing in such rain, I feel like I am enveloped by the misery of my previous life, and even breathing becomes difficult.
At this time, the village head's son Zheng Yicheng opened the door and saw Chen Ke standing at the door: "Chen Ke?"
Chen Ke was startled and stood up quickly.
Zheng Yicheng looked at Chen Ke strangely: "What's the matter with you coming to my house?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Ke fled in panic.
When he returned home, only his wife and several children were left at home.
"What's wrong?" Gao E looked at Chen Ke and felt that he had suffered a great blow.
"It's okay." Chen Ke felt the warmth in the cave and finally felt better. "Where are my sister-in-law and the others?"
"I asked my eldest sister-in-law to go and rest." Gao E felt that something must have happened to Chen Ke. "My mother came up and said that the house was leaking, so she asked my eldest brother and his family to go back and check it out. My second brother and his wife also went back with us."
"Oh." Chen Ke took off his hat and raincoat and hung them on the wall.
"Come and get some toasty." Gao E called out to Chen Ke, "Take off your shoes."
Chen Ke looked down and saw that the hem of his clothes was covered in mud and his shoes were visible through the mud.
There was no one else in the room. Chen Ke took off his shoes and his feet turned white from being soaked by the rain.
"Am I not suitable to wear such clothes?" Chen Ke raised his hands and warmed them over the fire. The firelight reflected on his face, which was still pale.
Gao E knew that Chen Ke had a hidden agenda when he said this, but she didn't know why Chen Ke suddenly brought up such a heavy topic. What was he doing outside?
"It's not about whether it fits or not, but whether it can be worn." Gao E pretended not to understand. "Others want to wear it but can't."
When Chen Ke heard Gao E say this, he looked up at him and said, "If I never get into high school, will you regret marrying me?"
Gao E was silent for a long time, thinking, aren’t those who are reborn very powerful?
How could you ask such a vulnerable question?
On second thought, if someone has lived a miserable life and has never changed his fate, can he expect everything to change after rebirth?
Chen Ke is just an ordinary person, and maybe he is still shrouded in the shadow of his miserable life in the past. It is already a rare thing for him to think about change, so we can't ask for too much.
"I used to regret it, but not now." Gao E said easily.
"Why?" Chen Ke was surprised.
"I used to think that if you became an official, I could become his wife. But if you think about it carefully, wanting to be an official's wife is just wanting to be respected and be a superior person. Before I got married, the tenants in my family respected me very much." Gao E said with a smile.
"So it's not just the wives of officials who are respected." Gao E looked at the fire. "After selling the house, I realized how hard it is to live in poverty. I don't think about it anymore. Now I just want my children to grow up well."
"Besides, the world is never static. Who knows what the world will be like in the future? There is no need for people to stick to one path until the end." Gao E said casually.
Chen Ke listened carefully. This was what he thought after his rebirth, but when he encountered problems, he inexplicably stopped moving forward.
Because he had never dealt with anything like this in his previous life.
"You're right." Chen Ke nodded. "It's me who is superficial."
Gao E laughed: "My husband is a scholar. He knows more than others and has more concerns than others. This is normal."
She was not complimenting Chen Ke, but was trying to induce him, because Chen Ke still had to deal with the flood issue, and she had no credibility at all.
Chen Ke was really flattered. "Before, you said that we should make everyone think it's normal for us not to help my uncle's family. Do you have any ideas?"
Gao E thought for a moment and asked, "If we want to buy back the house at the price we sold it for, will my uncle sell it?"
"Of course not." Chen Ke said reflexively.
"So, is my uncle right?" Gao E looked puzzled.
Chen Ke's eyes rolled around. His uncle was naturally not in the right, which proved that he was taking advantage of the situation.
"When the time comes, you can invite my father and all the prestigious people in the village to the headman's house to discuss this matter properly," Gao E suggested.
Chen Ke nodded: "I'll do it right away."
"Let's talk about it after lunch." Gao E saw that Chen Ke was so anxious and knew that this matter was urgent.
The Chen family’s house had been repaired before, but it couldn’t withstand such heavy rain, and the roof of the house was leaking to some extent.
"It's a pity that my second brother moved to the old village. His house is small on the outside and big on the inside." Chen Jie complained.
Chen Qing was cleaning tiles on the roof: "Don't be distracted."
Chen Jie suddenly thought of his second brother's big house. "My uncle is really a bad person. He only gave my second brother 65 taels for such a nice house..." He paused and said, "Do you think my second brother can buy it back with a little more money now?"
He knew that his second brother had money, and quite a lot of it.
"Don't even think about it." Chen Qing said unhappily.
"Really..." Chen Jie didn't have any temper at all.
At that time, even a penny could make a hero fall, and the family really had no other choice.
In the afternoon, Gao E prepared some food and asked Chen Ke to deliver it to each family, and asked them to come to the headman's house in the evening to be a witness.
Chen Ke was not good at doing this kind of thing, but he still went there anyway.
Fortunately, it was raining, and Chen Ke was a scholar and so polite that everyone agreed to go to the headman's house in the evening to testify, although they didn't know what the testimony was about.
After delivering the things, Gao E asked Chen Ke what he planned to say at that time. Chen Ke gave a general idea and Gao E made some reminders and felt that it was about right.
In fact, all Chen Ke needs to do is to bring this matter up, and then his father-in-law, Chen Jie, and his uncle's family will definitely quarrel.
As far as she knew, the conflict between her father-in-law and her younger uncle had been going on for a long time, and her younger uncle didn't seem to get any advantage from her father-in-law.
Chen Jie doesn't have much respect for his uncle, so his fighting ability must be at its maximum.
At that time, Chen Ke only needs to explain some principles that others cannot understand. He is an educated person, and others will think that it is their problem, not a problem of reason.
"Then I'll go." Chen Ke even tidied up his clothes.
