Lin Dahu looked at this scene and hesitated to speak, but in the end he said nothing.
Ye Chuqiu knew what he was thinking, so he asked: "Dahu, do you also think that mother has gone too far? There is nothing wrong with lending them the wooden house, right?"
"No." Lin Dahu shook his head, but his expression revealed his inner thoughts.
"My mother's code of conduct is that it's okay to be kind and do good deeds, but don't kidnap others."
Ye Chuqiu said: "If you are kind and want to help someone, you can help, but don't affect the people around you, such as your second aunt, she wants to help these people, I have no right to blame her, but if she wants to help these people
If someone complains that I didn’t lend her a house, that’s wrong. Borrowing my house is a matter of affection and not borrowing it is a duty. The wooden house I worked so hard to build is not for the purpose of lending it to them.”
"Mom is right." Lin Dahu nodded.
Ye Chuqiu continued: "And those are a few rich and powerful men. They said they came here to escape famine. Since they are fleeing famine, they must be short of food and clothing. But they are lucky enough to have rosy faces. Don't you think it's strange? I am
I heard that when there is no food left, some people will change their eggs and eat.
We have women and children at home, and if something happens, it will be too late to regret it."
Lin Dahu thought for a moment, understood Ye Chuqiu's thoughts, and immediately said: "Mom, let me remind my second uncle that after all, my cousin-in-law just gave birth to a baby. If something happens, it will be troublesome.
"
"You go ahead."
Ye Chuqiu nodded and looked at Zhao Hehua again, "These people are here. Watch Qiao'er closely these days. Let's just walk around in our own room and don't visit everywhere."
"Mom, my daughter-in-law knows."
Zhao Hehua nodded repeatedly. She was not someone who liked to go out and do household chores. She preferred to stay at home, doing housework and taking care of her children.
"That's all my mother said. Just make sure you know what's going on. Today is a happy day for our family. Let's go and have a rest early."
Ye Chuqiu said to them and went back to the room.
Finally living in a new house and having her own room, Ye Chuqiu was a little excited, and she decorated her room with great interest.
She hung up the newly bought mosquito net and hung sachets at the four corners of the bed. Then she took out the mercury mirror she signed in the system and placed it on her dressing table.
The furniture in her house is all brand new. She asked Huang Yougui to help make it by craftsmen. The bed is a canopy bed with exquisite carvings of dragons and phoenixes.
Dressing tables, cabinets, boxes, desks, etc. are all available.
The house was a suite, and inside was her bedroom. The curtains were lifted, and a table was set up against the wall in the outside room with teapots and cups. She could also entertain some female guests here in the future.
The outside room still seemed a bit empty. Ye Chuqiu found a jar, took out the roses signed in by the system, and inserted a few flowers inside. Suddenly, the room became more elegant.
"Not bad, not bad. After struggling for so long, I finally have a family."
Lying on the bed at night with a soft pillow on her head, Ye Chuqiu also had a smile on her face. Although she could not be where she is today without the help of the system, it was also inseparable from her own efforts.
From now on, she would be in this room, practicing martial arts, studying, having nothing to do, planting flowers and hunting, wouldn't it be nice?
In the next few days, Ye Chuqiu stayed at home and taught the four tigers how to read and practiced martial arts with the five phoenixes. Such unfocused days passed very quickly.
In a blink of an eye, the first snow of winter fell.
Li Youmei came to Ye Chuqiu again to complain.
"Sister-in-law, you have to help me."
"What can I help you with?"
As Ye Chuqiu spoke, she wrapped a straw wrap around an osmanthus tree in the yard. This osmanthus tree was about the width of a bowl. She bought it from a family in the village and transplanted it uprooted. It cost her two hundred yuan.
She likes money very much, and the people in the village are also very happy.
"Oh, it's not my cousins. They stay here and don't want to leave. There has just been a heavy snow and the price of food has increased. Our family already has no money, so we need more mouths.
, If this continues, instead of dying on the way to escape, we will die in Lin'an Village." Li Youmei looked sad.
"Then just drive them away."
Ye Chuqiu finally wrapped the straw clothes around the tree trunk. She took a few steps back and looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction.
"Sister-in-law, he is my cousin after all. I can't say this. Can you think of a way to let them go?" Li Youmei looked at Ye Chuqiu for help.
Ye Chuqiu glanced at her and said, "Second younger brother and sister, that's your relative. You want me to be the villain? Aren't you always shy-skinned? Just speak up."
"Sister-in-law."
When Li Youmei heard this, her tone was filled with pleading. She looked around and saw that Wu Ming and the others were not coming this way, so she said: "My cousin and those people are just a bunch of hooligans. I don't dare to speak at all.
As soon as I told them to drive them away, they still demolished my house."
"Then if I ask, aren't they coming to demolish my house?"
Ye Chuqiu turned to look at her, "Your mud house is worthless. Mine cost two hundred taels of silver. Wouldn't it be a pity if it was destroyed?"
"Sister-in-law, you are very capable, please help me." Li Youmei pleaded: "As long as you help me this time, I will accept your favor."
"Yumei, tell me, how many times have I helped you on your way to escape from famine? But how many times have you received my love? This time when Wu Ming and his gang came to live in your house, I specially asked them to
Hu has warned you in the past and asked you to be careful, but in the end you even scolded my big tiger and said he didn’t need to worry about it.
Now, they are planning to occupy the magpie's nest, why do you have the nerve to come and tell me this?"
Ye Chuqiu said, no longer paying attention to her, and walked back home.
Li Youmei looked at Ye Chuqiu's back and was about to follow her, but at this moment, Wu Ming came over and shouted to her from a distance, "Cousin, what are you doing here in the cold weather?"
"Cousin, I'm borrowing food from my sister-in-law's house."
Li Youmei was afraid of him for some reason and didn't dare to let him know her true purpose.
"Have you borrowed it?" Wu Ming came over and asked.
"No, my sister-in-law said she has many children and doesn't have any food to lend me." Li Youmei turned her head and looked at Wu Ming, "Cousin, look at how expensive food is now, and our family has no food. What do you say next?
What should we do? Otherwise, you will find another place?"
"Cousin, where did you ask your brother to go in this snowy day?"
Wu Ming glanced at her and said with a smile: "We are brothers and sisters. When I helped you deal with Lin Er before, you didn't say you wanted to drive your brother away."
"But I can't let our whole family starve to death here, right?" Li Youmei said helplessly.
"How could you starve to death? Let's do this. Brother, let's find a way for you. Let's go back and talk." Wu Ming rolled his eyes, and he didn't know what weird idea he had thought of.
