It was almost dark when Su Yang returned from the county town.

Su Mingliang was waiting at the village entrance early, watching Su Yang being brought back in a high-end-looking car.

Yuan Ji sat in the driver's seat and had no intention of getting out of the car. He just greeted Su Mingliang and drove away from their sight.

Although it was not the first time he saw this car, Su Mingliang still felt very envious.

Su Mingliang didn't know how much the car cost, but he recognized the car logo, which was the same as the one driven by Boss Yang's eldest son.

I heard that it costs more than one million to get some kind of insurance!

"Xiao Wu" bought such a good car, so he shouldn't buy a bad house for his father-in-law, right?

Thinking of this, Su Mingliang couldn't wait to ask, "Sanya, which residential complexes did you look at this afternoon? Have you decided on a house yet?"

"Mr. Wu has looked at two newly developed residential complexes in recent years, but he hasn't made a decision yet and doesn't seem very satisfied with either."

Su Mingliang nodded in understanding, "You have to choose carefully, a house is a big deal."

When passing by Su Ziyu's house on his way home, Su Yang saw Su Ziyu sitting at the door picking vegetables.

When Su Ziyu saw her, he smiled and waved at her.

Su Yang was concerned about Su Mingliang's appearance and did not act very familiar. He just nodded slightly in response and walked away without looking back.

After they walked away, Su Yang heard Su Mingliang muttering, "What a little girl, that old man Su Changhe treats her like a treasure."

"Pooh!"

Su Yang's eyes darkened, and his disgust and hatred for Su Mingliang increased a bit.

……

Today is already Saturday. Su Chenghai called Su Ziyu when he drove out from Ancheng. It would probably be almost lunchtime when he arrived in the village.

Su Chenghai didn't plan to stay overnight in the village today, so he would drive back in the afternoon.

Fortunately, the poultry raised at home have been processed, so Su Changhe and his team can set off at any time. As for the vegetables in the fields that have not yet grown, they can be left for the neighbors to pick and eat later.

After dinner, Su Ziyu, wearing long sleeves and long pants, followed his grandfather to pick plums behind the house.

Their family only had one plum tree, which was Su Ziyu's favorite boneless plum. When ripe, it would crack open with a hard squeeze and then easily break into two halves.

Because the two elderly people took good care of it, the plum tree grew very well, and the fruit was crisp and delicious, with only a slightly sour taste.

In Ancheng, the price of boneless plums is at least ten yuan. They can pick at least dozens of kilograms of plums from this tree, so it would be a waste to leave them alone.

So when Su Changhe got up early in the morning, he didn't do morning exercises, but directly asked Su Ziyu to pick plums.

The grandfather and grandson took a small bucket with a hook and a large backpack. The bucket could be hung on a tree branch, filled with things, and then lowered with a rope.

When he arrived under the tree, Su Changhe did not hesitate at all and made a gesture to climb up the tree.

Su Ziyu quickly pulled him back, and didn't say he was worried about Su Changhe climbing so high. He just said excitedly, "Grandpa, I'll go, I'll go. I haven't climbed a tree in a long time, and I want to go up and take a look."

Su Changhe hesitated for a moment. If the person following him was Su Zihao, he would have chased Su Zihao up the tree to work without Su Zihao saying anything.

But since the person who said this was his well-behaved and lovely granddaughter, Su Changhe felt a little uneasy.

The tree is so tall that it is easy to scratch the skin if you are not careful. Su Changhe is reluctant to let his granddaughter do such work.

However, Su Ziyu was so good at acting cute that she managed to persuade Su Changhe to relent. "You can go up if you want, but don't climb too high. If you can't pick the fruits from the top, forget it. I'll go up and pick them later."

"Row!"

Su Ziyu responded obediently, but whether he would do as he was told after going up was not certain.

Su Ziyu tied the rope on the bucket around his waist and began to climb up the tree by climbing the trunk.

This plum tree looked to be at least five or six meters tall, and its forked branches were quite thick, fully capable of bearing Su Ziyu's weight.

Although Su Ziyu hadn't climbed a tree for some years, he was not unfamiliar with it. He found the right footing and stepped on it steadily, looking quite at ease.

She didn't feel scared. After finding a suitable foothold, she hung the bucket on a branch with a hook and looked around.

She spotted a big plum, picked it, rubbed it on her clothes, and then pinched it.

With a crisp "crack" sound, the plum cracked open. Su Ziyu broke the plum into two halves and threw the half without the core into his mouth.

Su Changhe had been closely watching Su Ziyu's movements, and seeing this, he asked cheerfully, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

"good to eat!"

After eating a plum, Su Ziyu quickly picked more and soon filled the bucket.

Su Ziyu took off the hook and found that this small bucket was quite heavy.

She held the rope tightly and lowered the bucket carefully. Su Changhe stood on tiptoe to catch the bucket and transferred the plums one handful at a time into the backpack.

It is not advisable to pour it directly in here, as it will damage the skin of the plum and cause it to rot easily.

Su Ziyu also took this opportunity to rest for a while, standing on the tree and looking into the distance.

As he was looking, Su Ziyu found a tricycle heading west, with several people sitting in the open bed.

Because the distance was quite far, Su Ziyu couldn't see clearly who it was.

However, there were many familiar people following the tricycle, as if there was something exciting to watch.

Su Ziyu was a little curious, so he shouted and waved his arms.

"Grandma Wang, Grandma Wang, where are you guys going?!"

Grandma Wang heard the voice and looked around for a long time before she saw Su Ziyu standing on the tree, who was mostly hidden by the branches and leaves. She waved to Su Ziyu cheerfully and shouted at the top of her voice:

"Someone from the Wang family in Longyan Village next door is coming. Let's follow them and see what's going on."

After Grandma Wang finished speaking, she saw that her companions who were watching the fun had walked a distance away, so she didn't bother to say anything more to Su Ziyu and trotted a few steps to catch up.

Xiaoshan looked in the direction where his grandmother left, then looked in the direction of Su Ziyu, and decisively gave up the idea of ​​following to join in the fun.

It is more important to satisfy his mouth.

……

"Su Mingliang, get out here!"

A furious roar rang out outside the yard, startling everyone in the house.

Su Jinbao was stuffing an egg into his mouth, but he was so frightened that the egg got stuck in his throat and his face turned red.

Li Xiu Lian and Su Ming Liang helped him to calm down and gave him water before he was able to swallow it.

Su Yang sat aside and watched coldly.

Maybe it was because of Yuan Ji's presence, or maybe it was because Su Mingliang had just received 50,000 yuan, but Su Yang's treatment at home had obviously improved in the past two days.

Su Yang accepted it with a clear conscience, ate and drank as usual, and was not polite to them at all.

Hearing some strange noise outside, Su Yang took advantage of the fact that Su Mingliang and the other two were not paying attention, put down his almost finished bowl and chopsticks, and hid upstairs.

"Who's making such a fuss so early in the morning? We, Jinbao, have been in such trouble."

Li Xiulian touched Su Jinbao's chubby face with heartache and grumbled in dissatisfaction.

"I'll go out and take a look!"

Before Su Mingliang walked out of the door, several people with unfriendly faces walked in.

Walking in front was a tall and thin man in his thirties.

The man had dark skin and looked a little haggard.

At this moment, he had a gloomy face, and the violence and sinisterness in his eyes made Su Mingliang's heart skip a beat.

Su Mingliang had never seen this man before, but his intuition told him that this man was not someone to be trifled with.

Following the man walked in was a man with his hands behind his back and a serious face. Su Mingliang knew this man.

"Village Chief Wang, what are you doing?"

Su Mingliang looked at Wang Fugui and guessed the man's identity. He then looked at the people following Wang Fugui and had a bad feeling.

Wang Fugui didn't say anything, but Wang Ligen kicked the small wooden stool at the door away.

"Mr. Su, I heard that you accepted a betrothal gift from a big boss from Kyoto."

"Why, do you want to go back on your word and marry Su Yang to that big boss?"

Wang Fugui stood behind Wang Ligen, calmly maintaining his official authority.

Wang Ligen's mother took a few steps forward, walked up to Wang Ligen, pointed at Su Mingliang's nose and started cursing.

"You damned brother-in-law, you've done so many bad things, be careful if you have children in the future..."

Wang Ligen's mother thought about it and estimated that Su Mingliang would not be able to give birth to a son now, so she changed her words and cursed: "You are too good to give birth to a grandson!"

When Li Xiulian heard this, she immediately started arguing with Wang Ligen's mother.

"You are not immoral? Your Wang family is not immoral?"

"Who don't know what you are planning?"

"Anyway, you haven't even given the betrothal gift yet, and we only agreed verbally. So what if I change my mind?"

"You're still cursing our Jinbao. I think your Wang family is going to be extinct."
