Although they were angry, Jin Xiaoye and Jin Xiaoshu still waited until after dinner before going to the Jin family.
On the way there, Jin Xiaoye said to Li Qingzhi and Fang Jinniang, "You can go to the new house to boil some water and drink some tea. You don't have to follow us."
The so-called new houses are the two new houses built by Jin Xiaoshu.
Jin Xiaoye and Jin Xiaoshu are determined to make a scene, and it would be best if Li Qingzhi and Fang Jinniang do not interfere in this matter.
Well, they all have the surname Jin, and even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. In fact, no matter how big the quarrel is, the same thing will happen in the end.
But if Fang Jinniang and Li Qingzhi went, their grandmother might hate them.
Then there are their parents. They are used to being soft-hearted and may not want to divide the family business. If they see their daughter-in-law interfering, they might feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, then we'll wait for you at the new house." Li Qingzhi said, holding Li Damao and Li Ermao's hands.
There were no mobile phones, computers or televisions in those days, and the two children were very bored at home. When they learned that they were going out, they wanted to follow them.
Li Qingzhi and Fang Jinniang brought their two children into Jin Xiaoshu's newly built house.
It's quite cold today. Boiling some water to drink will warm you up. The unburned charcoal can be put into the stove and used for heating.
When Fang Jinniang lit the fire to boil water, the sound of quarreling came from next door.
Before Jin Xiaoye and Jin Xiaoshu went back, the atmosphere in the Jin family had actually become very bad - the village chief followed Jin Dajiang to the Jin family and told the Jin family that they were going to sacrifice another person.
"Don't we already have one person in our family? Why do we need another one?" Aunt Jin was unhappy when she heard this.
"Dajiang is over the age limit and cannot be included," said the village chief.
"Why not just let it go? Aren't there enough people who do this? Didn't Jin Biantou at the village let his underage nephew go in place of his son?" said Aunt Jin.
The man that Jin Biantou's sister married fell ill ten years ago. He didn't want to die, so he sold the family's land to pay for his medical treatment. In the end, he died and lost all his land.
Jin Biantou's sister had to take her son back to her parents' home. Later, she remarried, but her son stayed in Jin Biantou's home.
Jin Biantou did not drive his nephew away and gave him food to eat, but he was not very kind to him. This time when the government recruited laborers, he let his nephew, who was only sixteen years old, go in place of his son.
The village chief also knew about this, so he said, "You guys have to send another person anyway! The county magistrate asked Dajiang to help in the kitchen, and now our village has one less laborer."
The village chief briefly recounted what happened during the day and planned to use Li Qingzhi and County Magistrate Gou to pressure the Jin family.
This made Aunt Jin even angrier: "Okay, it seems that it was Li Qingzhi who did this. How did we offend him? Why would he want to hurt us like this?"
Li Qingzhi was definitely targeting them on purpose!
Just as they were arguing, Jin Xiaoye came with Jin Xiaoshu. As soon as Jin Xiaoye arrived, he said, "I was just wondering how my father had offended you. He's so old, and you actually let him build the pier!"
Build a wharf! Although we are only digging mud these days, we will move stones in a few days!
"He wanted to do it, and no one forced him with a knife!"
"If you don't want to go, just pay the money. Why are you bullying my father?" "How can we not pay? We pay one tael to the government every month!"
