Chapter 1397 Lazy Wife 14
Other families in the village build houses and transport bricks and tiles back from the main road into the village. Because there is no highway in the village, only small roads, and cars cannot enter, they can only carry them manually, so they have to walk a long distance. Sometimes the amount carried by one's own family is not enough, so they have to ask others for help. Whether it is their own manpower or asking others for help, it costs money, after all, labor is money.

As for the Chen family's house, because it was near the main road, they only took two days to carry the bricks and tiles back home, which was very convenient. The labor saved alone was a lot of money. This made everyone have a deeper understanding of the convenience of building a house next to the main road. So now Linlang's status in the family has become higher and higher. After all, she found a way to make money, and her proposal was so far-sighted. Once a person becomes particularly useful, it is hard not to be respected by others. Even if she gave birth to two girls, no one looked down on her, because everyone said that she could marry them in the future, which was no different from a boy.

During the Chinese New Year, the Chen family was very happy.

Although most families in the village have built large tiled houses, the Chen family is still backward.

But now that the house is built, the Chen family is no longer backward, because, with the intention of adding a second floor in the future, they built a pure red brick and tiled house. In order to save money, many families in the village built mud brick and tiled houses, which are inferior to the pure red brick and tiled house of the Chen family. The walls of the red brick and tiled house can be scraped smoother, and appear brighter.

Moreover, the Chen family has two rooms with cement floors - one in the main room and one in the Linlang room - many families are reluctant to buy cement, after all, cement is quite expensive at that time, so they all don't have cement floors.

So now the Chen family’s house is considered pretty good in the village and is no longer backward.

The family has become better off, and Mrs. Chen and other daughters-in-law are also happy. After all, the family was too poor before, and seeing other relatives and friends living better and better, they felt ashamed to return to their parents' home.

Now that they live in a bright red brick and tile house, their parents-in-law look up to them. They don't feel too poor and inferior when they go back to their parents' home. You know, before, the family was too poor and the children had never had any snacks. When they went back to their parents' home, the children saw snacks and couldn't help but want to eat some, but they would be looked down upon by other children, who thought that their children had never seen the world and that they would snatch snacks as soon as they arrived and were not liked.

Now that their family is rich, they prepared a lot of snacks for the Chinese New Year. The children at home ate their fill, and when she went back to her parents' home, she didn't get jealous when she saw the snacks and scrambled for them like she did in previous years. She is also more popular now.

The families of the daughters-in-law felt the changes in their daughters' families, but they didn't know that the Chen family had found a way to make money. After all, when they were in the village before, they could hide it from their neighbors. Now that they have moved to a sparsely populated main road far away from the village center, they can hide it even more easily. After all, there are not many neighbors around and they are quite far away. Who knows what they are doing?

So the Chen family worked in handicrafts for half a year and made a lot of money, but no one knew about it.

Chen Dasao and the others kept their mouths shut and didn't tell anyone about this. After all, they didn't want others to know about this opportunity to make a fortune, lest those people come to their door and ask them to make money with them, which would be very annoying.

They were afraid that the children would keep their mouths shut, so they set rules for them: no one was allowed to tell anyone about the bead stringing at home. If they didn't tell anyone, they would receive a dollar as a reward when they got home, and they could buy whatever snacks they wanted then.

This was a lot of money, and the children all wanted to earn it, so no one would tell their families about it. So after visiting relatives during the New Year, everyone got one dollar and could buy whatever they wanted to eat in the city or in the small shops on the main road. Yes, they moved to the main road, which was much closer to the small shops and made it much more convenient to buy things.

There were two shops in the village before, but they were three miles away from the Chen family. Now that the Chen family has moved to the main road, it is much closer because there is a shop on the main road about 500 meters away from them.

Not only is the road close, but that store also has more things than the store in their village. I heard that sometimes their village is short of goods and they can't go to the city to buy them, so they buy goods from this store and bring them back to the village.

Since it serves as a small cargo transit station, the things in this store are naturally much more than those in the other two stores in the village, so the children can naturally buy more things.

The Chen family kept their mouths shut and didn't say anything to outsiders, but the two daughters-in-law's family members asked their daughters about Linlang.

"I heard that your third child is super lazy and never does anything at home, is that true?"

At the beginning, Linlang yelled that their family was small and that they only needed to send one person to do the work. Chen's mother got angry after hearing this and couldn't help but talk about how lazy and bad her third daughter-in-law was. Naturally, these words reached the ears of Chen Dasao and Chen Ersao's families.

To be honest, when they heard that Linlang did not do any work and only their daughter and another daughter-in-law were doing the work, the families of Mrs. Chen Dasao and Mrs. Chen Ersao were unhappy. After all, who would want their daughter to be taken advantage of by others?

As a result, both Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen defended Linlang and said, "She is right. Her two children are so young, and they are girls. How much can they eat? It is enough for her family to have one person to do the work. What's more, she is not completely idle. She washes her own clothes, and we don't have to do it. She also cooks occasionally, which is enough."

They couldn't talk nonsense at their parents' house, lest their parents spread what they said. If Linlang heard it, what would she do if she didn't take them to do manual work? It was so much money a month. Under the temptation of so much money, as long as Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen were not stupid, they would not say bad things about Linlang.

But outsiders don't know the situation in their family. They can only be stunned when they see Mrs. Chen defending Linlang, especially Mrs. Chen's parents. They think that Mrs. Chen didn't say this when she went back to her parents' home before. At that time, she said that Zhao Linlang gave birth to two daughters and had a hard time in the Chen family. It was pitiful. But she was lucky because she gave birth to three boys and was very glorious in the Chen family.

But they all knew that when Chen Ersao said that Linlang was pitiful, she was just saying it. In fact, she really enjoyed the feeling of giving birth to many sons and having Zhao Linlang look up to her. When did she become willing to protect Zhao Linlang so sincerely?
Chen Ersao’s family members were puzzled, but Chen Ersao didn’t care whether they understood or not. She was happy as long as she could make a lot of money.

Her family favors boys over girls, and she has never had more than 100 yuan in her hands since she was a child. Now she has more and more money, and it feels great. For this, she is willing to say good things about Linlang.
