Blessed Peasant Woman of Time Traveling

Chapter 15

Ding Xiang probably guessed what was going on, and she said with a smile on purpose: "Second Uncle, you don't mean that my parents went to Li Kiln to pull bricks back home in the morning, did they? This is my family's business, so what should I do with the villagers , what's the trouble with them? Besides, why isn't it proper for me to build a house?"

Mrs. Chen jumped up and pulled Meng Qing aside. She put her hands on her hips and spit and said, "Everyone in the village is watching your house, and you don't want to listen to what they say. Where did your family come from?" The money to build the house must be paid by some animal. No wonder Haitang has been unwilling to say who it is. She just wants to extort money from others, right? You can forget about extorting money, but why didn’t you tell me when we separated yesterday morning? As long as the family has not been separated, the money belongs to everyone, you should take it out and share it equally, and you must not keep it privately, if you don’t believe me, you can ask Grandpa Meng, he said the same!"

Meng Gui and He Shi looked at each other in panic, they really didn't expect this.

Qi and Meng Xing also looked angry. After hearing Chen's words, Meng Xing answered, "You know, I usually hand over the money I get for catching a pheasant or a fish to sell. Big brother and sister-in-law are fine. Hide the money privately, and immediately build a new house when the family is divided, isn't that too wicked?"

Meng Gui and He Shi blushed at being scolded, and couldn't find a word to deal with it for a while. Could it be that they really did something wrong?They didn't think much about it at all. At that time, they just felt that they had money and couldn't reveal it.

Seeing that her parents seemed to be cowardly, Zikui suddenly raised her hoe, raised it high above her head, and said fiercely: "Second uncle, second aunt, third uncle and third aunt, what are you doing, are you trying to steal my family's money? The money they gave my eldest sister has nothing to do with you, who is so wicked, if you dare to grab this money, I will fight you hard!"

Qi smirked, straightened up and said: "Come on, come on and fight hard! I said earlier that the third girl is uneducated. Look, if you are so rude to the elders, is it possible that you still want to fight us? We are here to reason with your family, what does it look like for you to be violent at every turn!"

Immediately, Mrs. He came over and snatched Zikui's hoe, and said angrily, "Zuikui, don't mess around."

Ding Xiang is quite knowledgeable, the more rude a person is, the more he says he is being reasonable, the more vicious a person wants to take advantage of, the more he says others are uneducated.

Ding Xiang saw that her parents might really give in, but she refused.But head-to-head is not enough. A family can't deal with so many people, not to mention that Mrs. Chen also emphasized that Grandfather Meng said so. It seems that this matter has been discussed in the village.

Ding Xiang stepped forward and said calmly: "Okay, everyone, stop arguing. Since the family was divided yesterday morning, my family got the money that was paid to my sister last night. It has nothing to do with it. What's the matter?" Very noisy."

After hearing this, Chen's pupils dilated immediately, and she rushed to Ding Xiang's body, looked at Ding Xiang closely and said: "You girl, you must be lying, how could such a coincidence happen!"

Ding Xiang spread her hands, "You don't believe who is to blame? You should know that my father went out last night, he just went to ask for money. You can say you don't know, but many people in the village must have heard the movement. My father walks heavily. There are a few watchdogs barking at home, if you don’t believe me, you can just ask and find out. My family has to open up wasteland, so don’t stand in the way, even if Grandfather Meng comes, it’s my family’s responsibility.”

Seeing that the money seemed to be out of reach, Mrs. Chen was so anxious that she wanted to cry, and shouted: "Let's go, let's talk to our parents, and go to Grandpa Meng!"

Meng Qing, Meng Xing, and the Qi family had no choice but to follow along. Standing here and arguing would cost nothing, and the money was hidden somewhere.The most important thing now is to find their parents, Father Meng, Wu Shi, and grandfather Meng, and ask them to come forward and ask for money.

Ding Xiang looked at the backs of the four of them leaving, not knowing what it was like.The second uncle and the third uncle usually look pretty good. When they separated, they didn't argue with each other in a friendly manner, and suppressed their own women to prevent them from messing around. Although they have objections to the Haitang matter, they are generally for the sake of this family. it is good.

But when it came to money, everyone changed their faces, and even bluntly said that the eldest brother and sister-in-law are dishonest and wicked. How can these two big men speak so viciously?Fortunately, the second uncle has studied for a year, but he doesn't look like a scholar at all.Perhaps they really thought that the money should be divided equally, thinking that Meng Gui and He had hidden the money.Even so, brothers have to talk and discuss carefully, why bother to be at war, it is still too poor to talk about money.

As for Mrs. Chen, she is a powerful character, but on the bright side, she is not a very capable person, her brain is not clever enough, and her heart is not very bad, but she is afraid of losing money.

This Mrs. Qi is a badass, she usually doesn't talk much, and loves to mingle behind Mrs. Chen, and Mrs. Chen treats her as a confidant sister-in-law.In fact, Mrs. Qi has a poisonous heart, her words are like a knife trying to gouge out someone's heart, and it is probably not much better to do things secretly.

Meng Gui and He Shi no longer had the vigor they had when they were working just now, their expressions were gloomy, and they were digging feebly on the ground that was as hard as a rock.Because it was a big slope, Mrs. He was absent-minded and almost fell down.

Ding Xiang stepped forward and grabbed her, "Mother, don't worry, as long as we insist that we got the money last night, they won't take the money, and our house should be built. No matter who is right, That's what we all say."

He shook his head and said, "Ding Xiang, you don't understand, people's words are terrible, not to mention that the money was indeed brought by the Sun's family the night before the separation, if you are lying, your parents have no confidence."

"Mom, you have to be confident. How do the second aunt and third aunt usually satirize my sister, saying that she recruits wild men and that she is wasting food and raising wild species for eating? Are you not angry? They have never comforted her." Sister, I just used words to gouge my sister's heart. Why should the money given to my sister by my cousin's family be distributed to them? They should be the ones who have no confidence. Such a reason."

Ding Xiang's words really had an effect, He thought of Chen's and Qi's ridicule towards Haitang, and he was full of anger.

Meng Gui also didn't want the new house to be ruined like this. Even if the money was distributed, people would not say that he was good, but would turn around and say that he was dishonest and kept the money privately.As long as he insisted that he went out last night to get money, they would have nothing to say to poke his back.

Meng Gui said in a deep voice: "Just do as Ding Xiang said, hurry up and work."

Seeing that her parents had finally gotten back on her feet, Zikui worked hard and dug up the dust.Near noon, Meng Gui and Mrs. He each carried half a load of stones from the mountain. Although it was only half a load, it was very heavy. These are good stones for laying foundations.

Zikui and Dingxiang carried their parents' hoes, two each.Ding Xiang felt that she was about to die of exhaustion, and her legs felt weak when she walked, but Zi Kui was fine and walked like flying.

Ding Xiang was thinking about what to do to earn money again, hard work is really not her specialty.

Before they got home, they saw people standing in front of their house from a distance.Father Meng and Wu Shi sat at the door with serious faces, Grandfather Meng was by his side, and the people in the second and third rooms were divided into adults and children and stood in two rows.Almost all the people in the village had arrived, some whispered around, and some squatted next to a pile of newly pulled bricks to watch carefully.

Ding Xiang secretly thought, good guy, why did it look like three trials!
Fortunately, Haitang didn't come out, which shows that she hasn't told the truth, and she must be hiding in the room at this time, and she is probably speechless with anger.

Seeing this situation, Meng Gui and Mrs. He panicked a little. They were used to being honest and the villagers praised them as good people. Now they are treated as villains by everyone, how can they calm down.

Ding Xiang was afraid that they would say the wrong thing when they got nervous, so she whispered, "Father and mother, you must do what I tell you, otherwise your bad reputation will be established in the future, and you will never be able to hold your head up again."

These words are a shot in the arm for Meng Gui and He Shi, what they are most afraid of is notoriety.

Meng Gui is still a big man, he returned to his usual look and came to the door of the house, put down his burden, bowed his hands to everyone, and then bowed to his parents, "Father, mother, I don't know what my son did wrong, so that everyone So motivating the crowd?"

Father Meng coughed, "My eldest son, your new house should be something to be celebrated, and your mother and I also feel proud, but why don't you tell your parents and your brother to buy it directly?" How about going home? In Mengling Village, no family has built a new house for many years. It is considered a happy event if a family builds a new house every five years. We've been together for so many years, you can't hide your money."

Immediately afterwards, Grandpa Meng also said with a solemn expression: "Your father is right. No matter how the money came from, as long as it was obtained before the separation of the family, it should be divided equally. This is called a family."

"Father, I brought this money last night after we separated. The reason why I didn't tell everyone is that I didn't want to make too much publicity. I didn't earn this money by my own ability. Didn't I make public with the big guy?" Are you embarrassing yourself?" Although Meng Gui blushed a little when he lied, he managed to hold the scene.

Meng Qing squinted at Meng Gui, "Brother, you have to speak with your conscience, do you dare to swear?"

Meng Gui was startled, he really didn't dare to swear such an oath, he was afraid of being punished by God.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chen rushed to say: "Swearing is useless. So many people swear throughout the year, why haven't I heard of anyone being punished? Let me tell you, you need to find witnesses to confront. Since the elder brother's family has received the money from others , I definitely won’t say which family gave the money. I heard that the elder brother invited Wei Xiaozi and his nephew to build the house last night. Know."

Now Meng Gui really panicked, he seemed to have accidentally said in front of the Wei family uncle and nephew that the money was obtained the night before, isn't this just before the separation of the family?
At this time, Grandpa Meng nodded and said: "Well, this method is feasible. I just want to go to the town to buy some things, and I will go to Weijia Village to invite the uncles and nephews of the Wei family for questioning. Don't worry, I will leave immediately. No one can sneak a message to them in advance, no matter who is right or wrong, I will uphold justice today. Everyone, let's go and make lunch."

Grandpa Meng didn't go back to his house and went straight on the road.The villagers had no choice but to disperse and go home. When the Wei family came in the afternoon, they would watch the fun again.
