After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

Since Lan Yujuan agreed to put her brother-in-law's name on the property certificate, the whole family's attitude towards her has softened considerably.

As evening approached, the sun gradually set.

Lan Yujuan sat in the yard with her daughter, weaving a small flower basket with the thin willow twigs they had found.

Tian Xiuhua deliberately passed by her several times.

"Oh dear, it's getting late, time to make dinner!"

"The chickens and ducks are all back in their coops, and the pigs in the pigsty need to be fed, but I only have two hands. Who will cook for me?"

Normally, Lan Yujuan would have already taken off the baby carrier and carried her daughter on her back.

But today, she acted as if she hadn't heard anything and just sat there without moving.

When I felt hungry, I went inside to get some fruit and snacks that I had eaten during the Lunar New Year to tide me over.

Tian Xiuhua called her back and forth several times, but seeing that she didn't react, she finally gave up.

After hurriedly feeding the pigs, I rushed to the kitchen to cook!

Tian Xiuhua herself knew that, judging from Lan Yujuan's attitude, she definitely wouldn't go hungry.

But the two men in the house still need to eat, and if they get too hungry, she won't be able to handle it.

Lan Yujuan sat in the front yard weaving small baskets, which quickly attracted the children from the neighborhood.

The adults who were responsible for looking after the children also gradually arrived and soon gathered in the front yard of the Liu family's house, starting to chat idly.

Liu Mei and her husband both work in big cities and rarely return to their hometown, so the villagers are especially hospitable to her!

"Liu Mei, you two must have made quite a bit of money in the city over the years, right?"

Another neighbor, Liu Meiling, rolled up her sleeves, revealing a large gold bracelet, and asked questions while eating sunflower seeds.

"Go ask the factory if they're still hiring. I'll get my husband to work there with you guys for a couple of years!"

Liu Meiling wore a complete winter bodycon dress, red-soled high heels, and had her hair styled in big waves. She was fully made up and accessorized with jewelry, looking like a Christmas tree.

The small amount of gold jewelry that Liu Meiling wore alone stung the hearts of many married women in the village.

Liu Mei looked up, glanced at the large gold bracelet on Liu Meiling's wrist, and replied with a smile, "Sister Meiling, you're joking. How much money can you make working in a factory tightening screws?"

"No one can compare to your man. He's smart, good at business, and you're destined to enjoy a life of luxury!"

Lan Yujuan sat beside her, listening silently with a faint smile.

No wonder Liu Meiling always stands out in a crowd. The man she married does have a good reputation in the village; he dotes on his wife and can earn money.

If there's any flaw in her man, it's that he's too ordinary-looking.

Liu Meiling, who has always loved beauty, rarely goes out with her husband.

Unexpectedly, Liu Meiling dropped a bombshell, saying with a half-smile:

"Liu Mei, we're from the same village, so don't keep it from me!"

"I heard you're planning to buy a house in the city after the New Year. You two are quietly making a fortune!"

Upon hearing this, the others all gasped in shock.

"My God!"

"Liu Mei, you two earn so much money outside?"

Liu Mei quickly laughed and said, "Don't listen to Liu Meiling's nonsense, how could she have earned that much?"

"Over the years, my husband and I have indeed saved some money for our child, but it's definitely not enough to buy a house."

"So, I went home and discussed it with my parents, and then asked my older sister for some money. It's barely enough for a down payment!"

"When it comes to making big money, we have to look to Yujuan's husband, who's the top student in our village, right?"

After Liu Mei finished speaking, she winked at Lan Yujuan discreetly, successfully diverting the conflict.

If we're really talking about gossip, who in the whole Xiahe Village has more gossip than the Liu family lately?

Liu Meiling, always eager for a good show, immediately perked up and asked with great interest:

"Hey, Yujuan! Your husband's been working in Beijing for years now, hasn't he? How much money have you saved? When are you planning to buy a house in the county?"

Li Mei, who was standing next to her, immediately said, "Xiaoman is all grown up now, and the learning environment in the city is much better! You really need to plan ahead for this!"

Lan Yujuan had just finished weaving the last little basket. After distributing it to the children waiting beside her, she rubbed her wrist and smiled:

"He sends five thousand yuan home every month without fail, and my mother-in-law helps him save it."

"If I calculate it carefully, I should have saved around 200,000 yuan!"

"We do plan to buy a house. We'll go to the county town to look at houses after the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."

"My mother-in-law was discussing buying a house with me during the day, saying the sooner the better!"

"Let's put his younger brother's name on the property certificate first, so that it will be more respectable when discussing marriage with the woman."

After Lan Yujuan finished speaking, all the women present fell silent.

Even Liu Meiling, who was eating sunflower seeds, was instantly petrified after hearing this...

"Are you kidding me?"

"The eldest son pays for the house, but the property deed is in the second son's name?"
