Chapter 56 Children Reading

Oh my god, the Yin family has lived so long, and even though they have seen cows many times, they all belong to other people's families.

Moreover, cattle are treasures to farmers, and they are generally reluctant to lend them to others for work.

Before she married into the Gu family, the family's land had only been plowed once by oxen. It was because someone owed the family money and they used it to pay off the debt.

The eyes of both adults and children were sparkling, and Gu Feng was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

In their village, only the village chief's family has cattle, and cattle are the only means of transportation, and they have to go to the city every day.

Only when the farming is busy, the cattle will go to the fields to plow the land. The village chief's land is close to theirs. Gu Feng is envious every time the farming is busy.

But it was too expensive to buy one, so he didn't dare ask Li to buy it.

But now he doesn’t even have to ask, he already has one at home, and this year’s busy farming season means he no longer has to envy the village chief’s family!

Thinking of this, Gu Feng and Gu Hai squeezed into the crowd and took a close look at their "baby bump".

They spent a long time at the village gate, and when they led the cow home, the sun was already setting in the west.

"Boss and Second Brother, you will leave one of you at home to repair the cowshed tomorrow, and the children will follow the Second Brother and his wife to cut the grass. It is not easy for the family to buy these things, so you have to take good care of me."

Mrs. Li reached out and touched the cow's head, and the cow gave her a very flattering "moo".

"Okay, then my second brother and I will alternate. I will do it in the morning and he will do it in the afternoon. Haven't we finished the soybeans we harvested last year? We will mix them with grass later to give this precious pimple some extra food!"

Gu Feng had heard from the village chief's son that soybeans should be added to the best forage for cattle.

"Okay, whatever you arrange, I'm only responsible for paying for it."

Li didn't worry about it. She asked Chen to cook and went back to her room to discuss the matter with Mr. Gu.

"I said before that my family had no money, but then I could spend so much money to buy cattle. People are so delicate. What's wrong with walking a little bit?"

When Mrs. Chen saw Mrs. Li leaving, she rolled her eyes at Su Xiaomu.

Su Xiaomu had never expected that Mrs. Chen was so sinister and eccentric.

She and Mrs. Yin looked at each other in confusion, and they didn't understand why they had offended this second sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, what have I done recently to make my second sister-in-law unhappy?"

Could it be that he didn't help her sell the handkerchiefs?

That's not right. Recently, Mrs. Chen has been busy collecting eggs and kneading ice powder seeds. She hasn't embroidered flowers for a long time.

And the latter doesn't earn as much as the former, so she wouldn't fall out with her over such a trivial matter, right?

"I don't know. Could it be that she felt unhappy because you bought this cow?"

Mrs. Yin didn't know what Mrs. Chen was thinking, so she took a broom and swept the floor.

But what she said reminded Su Xiaomu.

Chen Shiguan is a person who cares about others and does not care about others being better than her. Perhaps this time she felt that she was more embarrassed than her in front of Li, and she felt unhappy.

After all, she always felt that she had given birth to two sons to the Gu family, and her status was more than just an ordinary daughter-in-law.

But there's nothing we can do about it. Whoever calls Ms. Li is the god of the Gu family. Why do they all need to please her?

Chen's low pressure remained until meal time. Su Xiaomu pretended that she didn't notice it and ate her meal seriously.

To celebrate buying a cow today, the food was pretty good.

Stewed pork ribs with radish, stir-fried pork belly with chili, she loves them all!

"Xiaomu, you need to eat more. Mom, I see you have lost a lot of weight recently. This is not good. The little girl just needs to be fatter to be lucky."

Mrs. Li gave Su Xiaomu a big piece of pork ribs, and Gu Feng also asked Mrs. Yin to pick up some vegetables for her.

He praised her both internally and externally for her discernment and for buying a good cow.

"The village chief's family has a bull. When our cow gets older, it can be bred with their cow. In a few years, we will have a calf at home again."

He thought that the calf could be sold for money and help the family work, and he felt comfortable in his heart.

Looking at Gu Feng's expression, although Su Xiaomu kept nodding, she really couldn't bear to tell him that there were actually better cattle in the market, but they were so expensive that it made people panic.

"They are capable of breeding. Our cows are so energetic. Everyone in the village who saw them would not praise you for your good taste, Xiaomu."

This talented person is different. He can do well no matter what he does, but we can't compare with him."

Chen's words were full of sourness. She poked at the rice in the bowl impatiently, not having any appetite at all.

"Xiaomu is very capable, and she is very big. Our family is living so well this year thanks to her.

Lao Er's family, there is something that my mother has not told you all this time, that is, I plan to send Ruochen Ruochuan to a private school next month."

If Ms. Li hadn't understood the underlying meaning of Mr. Chen's words, she would have lived in vain for so many years.

She knew her daughter-in-law's temperament and was too lazy to scold her.

"The money for studying Ruochen Ruochuan was earned by Xiaomu and your sister-in-law from opening a shop. If they didn't get up early every day and work late at night to do business, would you still want to see meat on the table?"

Mrs. Li snorted coldly: "Our family used to eat meat several times a year, and I don't need to tell you that you understand.

Even if the children are successful after they are sent to school, they can go to the city to find work after they can recognize a few words, but they don't have to be like your father, who has to serve the land all day long, and he can't even serve a few people.

Here comes the money."

"Mom, we know that the third brother and sister are capable. My wife is just a bit quick to talk. She has no ill intentions towards the third brother and sister."

Gu Hai saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere at the dinner table, so he quickly came out to speak, "Third brother and sister, when the children are studying, I really want to thank you with your sister-in-law."

"Second brother said this and we are at odds. There are so many things to argue about between a family. As long as the children go to school well, it doesn't matter how hard and tired we adults are."

Su Xiaomu replied to her with some embarrassment. Li had never told her about sending her two children to study.

But it's a pity that the two girls in the family don't have the opportunity to go to school.

She lowered her head to dig the rice, but couldn't help but raise her eyes. Gu Ruotong's face had no other expression, but Gu Ruonan's eyes were full of envy for her two younger brothers.

The smiles of Yin Shi and Gu Feng were also a little stiff.

Harmful……

How do you say this?

There is nothing we can do about this. Who knows that the current environment is like this? How can poor families have the money to send girls to study?

The fact that Mrs. Li didn't sell the two girls to other people as child brides early on is because she, as a grandmother, doesn't show any partiality.

Otherwise, if the original owner is sold to pay off the debt like the original owner's father did, the two girls will think that they have no hope at all in this life.

The more she ate, the more uncomfortable she felt, and finally she couldn't help but raised her head and looked at Yin Shidao.

"Otherwise, Ruotong should learn to settle accounts with me from now on. She is smart and has a bright mind, and she is interested in settling accounts. It would be perfect for her to learn this."

"Is it really possible?"

Yin's eyes lit up when she heard this, but then she thought of Li's presence, and she returned to her usual silent expression.
