Chapter 111 0111 A Flood Is Coming

"That's it..." Mrs. Chen brushed her hair, "Sister-in-law worked hard for me."

"It's all right, it's all my family, what's the hard work." Mrs. Zhao patted Mrs. Chen's hand, and said with a smile: "Old daughter-in-law, the fabric you gave me last time was very good, is there any more? I want to give it to Mei Xiang. Make clothes."

After speaking, Mrs. Zhao went into the house of the fourth family by herself, took a piece of cloth from the table and hugged it in her arms, and said happily: "The things from the fourth family are better, then I will go back first. Fourth daughter-in-law, remember Ah, Su Li's family is not easy to get along with, so don't talk to them."

Then, Mrs. Zhao happily went back to the house with cloth in her arms, took out the snacks and a tael of silver she had hidden, and muttered to herself: "The fourth family is really stupid, it is easy to take advantage of fools, It’s much better than the old three’s family of poor ghosts.”

Mrs. Chen said nothing, sent Mrs. Zhao away, turned around and closed the door, went into the back room, and said to Mr. Su who was looking at the account book: "Master, mother asked you for money again?"

Fourth Su raised his head, greeted his wife and sat down, said: "Yes, mother said that she was not well and needed to see a doctor. Alas, mother's illness came from giving birth to me, and later I was kidnapped and stolen. Crying day and night, almost blinded by crying, I have been in poor health for these years, but I have no money to see a doctor. Now that I am back, I have some money in my hand, which should be given to my mother to see a doctor."

Mrs. Chen looked at the face of Mrs. Su, her lips moved, but she didn't say anything. She turned her head and touched the pair of children sleeping on the bed, and said softly, "Master, when the weather clears up, we will spend more time in the village Go for a walk. If you settle in Haizi Village in the future, you should get to know the villagers better. And the village head, we haven’t formally called on the village head since we came.”

Elder Su nodded and said, "Last time, I mentioned to my mother about visiting the village head, and my mother said that I would wait until we settled down. I thought about it. We have lived for a while, so we should go out more with the villagers. .It’s still the lady who is thoughtful, the head of a village has a high seniority, we should pay a visit to him.”

Mrs. Chen lowered her head and embroidered with a stretcher: "Isn't it... Xianggong, and your second brother's family. Although they have broken ties with the Su family and set up their own households, after all, blood is thicker than water."

The fourth son Su hesitated for a moment: "But mother said, the people in the second room are dishonest, greedy for money and shameless, so we are not allowed to deal with the second room."

Mrs. Chen smiled softly: "It's just a formality to have a look, and it's not considered a relationship, so as not to let outsiders say that our fourth bedroom has no rules."

Su Lao Si nodded: "My lady is right, I will go when the rain stops."

Only then did Chen lower his head, embroidering with peace of mind.

It rained for seven or eight days at a time, but the sky was not clear yet.

Most of Haizi Village are thatched houses and adobe houses, and every household in this rain leaked, except for the Su family who moved into a new tile-roofed house.

The Su family was even more frightened. When they saw other people in the village, they would show off their brick and tile house, attracting countless envious and jealous eyes.

Mrs. Su was even more proud. With the money scraped from Mr. Su's hand, she lived in the big house that Mr. Su paid for, not to mention how beautiful it was.

The Su family was in a daze, feeling that they were no different from those wealthy households in the city.

Su Li was bored and sat by the window looking at the rain outside. Fortunately, Yuan Bao repaired the roof this year, otherwise the house would have been leaking and uninhabitable.

"A Li, Aunt Wang, Yuan Bao! Are you at home?" Outside the yard, Zhang Mu hurriedly knocked on the door.

"Brother Zhang Mu, what's the matter?" Su Li left the goalkeeper Zhang Mu to welcome him in. Zhang Mu wiped the rain from his face with a solemn expression: "A Li, the river by the village is swollen. I'm listening to the river in the city. Those from the upper reaches said that the river embankment was about to collapse due to the rain, and once the upper embankment collapsed, our village would be flooded!"
