Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 216 - 216 Ideas

216 Ideas

However, if Qiao Xuan had been the only person who got this idea, he would have definitely disciplined her.

He would have told her that she should not have such thoughts when the whole family was together!

However, his wife and sons were all helping her out and he was totally left alone, so there was no chance for him to say anything, nor was there any use in saying anything.

Eldest Uncle felt really heavy-hearted. He felt that the family was slowly scattering…

Ms. Fang knew exactly what he was thinking, when he was silent. She sneered inwardly and pretended as if she had seen nothing.

She had thought that her husband would change himself, but it seemed that moving his heart might not be so easy. He believed firmly that the whole family should be together, and that his two brothers needed to be taken good care of. Hence, she decided not to say anything more.

Her words would not be as important as those said by his own brothers. So, she was going to wait to see what his brothers would do to him. Let him also realize what they were really like!

Just look at what they had done to him when he helped them with seedlings. He only got to eat one dinner at the third section of the family on his first day, and then he came home for three meals in the following days.

His brothers never let him stay for meals!

What was the need to help them!

But it was good that the two sections of the family did such a thing. Even an honest man like Dalang wasn’t so happy about how they behaved. Otherwise Dalang might have offered help to his father, since he was a very soft-hearted person.

Soon it was time for Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni to visit her natal family after the wedding.

Although they disliked Yang Liang and Ms. Tian, and refused to hang out with the couple, yet Ms. Fang would not cut down the return-day gifts and ceremony.

Ms. Fang, according to the rules, prepared the return gifts which included two chickens, two jars of wine, one kg of honey and two mid-sized pieces of meat. All this put together was above the intermediate level of gifting.

But as Yang Xiaoni and Shao Sanlang left the village, she pursed her lips. “I don’t want to return to my home. Those are such precious gifts and I don’t want to give them to my brother and his wife!”

Shao Sanlang patted his legs and laughed. “We have the same idea! I would rather feed the food to the dog!”

His wife had not had a comfortable life before she married him. She was never fed well and was always beaten and punished. She was forced to do a lot of work. He really did not want to give the couple any presents!

Yang Xiaoni thought for a while and grinned. “I think we can keep the honey, which must taste very sweet. It can stay for a long time!”

“Good idea!” Shao Sanlang laughed and added in agreement. “This rice wine seems nice too. What about keeping it as well? We can taste it every now and then. It won’t go bad for quite some time.”

“Good!” Yang Xiaoni nodded. “And… we can kill one chicken and roast it! It will taste great!”

Speaking of roasting food, Yang Xiaoni often stole some taro, corn and beans from home to roast them in the field.

Sometimes she would dig some yams and roast them to feed herself in the wild field.

She had even roasted fish, but she could not process it well enough, so she gave up after one attempt.

That was how she and Shao Sanlang met in the first place.
