92 Chapter 91, Compensate the Price Difference

Zhang Kun didn’t refuse this time. He really should leave. He still had to go to work the next morning!

He was the only chef in the canteen. If he didn’t go to work, the group of people in the unit wouldn’t be able to eat.

Zhang Kun went home and tidied up. He rode his bicycle and left the Li family home.

Li Yong could stay at home for another two days. There don’t have many jobs in the restaurant during this time. The boss would rather they didn’t go to work!

If there were too many people, they would be idle, and they would have to pay their salaries.

As for Li Miao, after the wheat harvest, she went to the county town for two days. She also went to a lot of places, but she still couldn’t find a job.

The county town was only so big. After searching for two days, Li Miao finally went home.

Li Xu also had a lot of time. The children were on vacation.

It didn’t matter whether she went back or not. Anyway, the stall had been paid, and others couldn’t take it away. She could go back whenever she wanted.

At night, Li Zhiming was afraid that someone would steal the steel pipe, so he rolled up his bedding and slept on the ground.

Li Yong was also afraid that something would really happen, so he followed him.

It was hot in the summer, and there were many mosquitoes in the field. Li Yong didn’t sleep well for almost the entire night.

The next morning, Li Yong’s entire body was listless.

Ji Yuanyuan looked at the mosquito bites on Li Yong’s arm and said with some heartache, “Second Uncle, you and Grandfather should put a mosquito net tonight. Otherwise, you won’t be able to sleep well, and you won’t have the energy to work during the day.”

Li Yong nodded and looked at Liu Guihua, “Mom, you should bring the mosquito net over tonight, dad and I will use a bamboo pole to set up a shelf, It’ll make do.”

“Didn’t you take mosquito repellant? Didn’t you use it?” Liu Guihua asked with some puzzlement.

Li Yong sighed, “Mosquito repellant is only useful at home. What can it do in the field? It’s the same as not using it.”

Li Zhiming’s body was better. He was used to being bitten in the field. His skin was rough and his flesh was thick, so he was fine.

Li Yong rolled up his sleeves, “Let’s get started, we’ll be fine once we finish.”

Ji Yuanyuan was wrapped up tightly today. She was wearing a long-sleeved trousers and a bamboo hat on his head.

Even on herface, Li Xu had wrapped a silk scarf around her.

If the two boys got tanned, so be it. If a little girl got tanned, what would she do in the future?

When she woke up this morning, she took a look. Her daughter seemed to be showing signs of getting tanned.

That was why Li Xu quickly armed Ji Yuanyuan fully.

Although the three children could not exert their strength, they could still give them things to save the adults from running around.

This things, once you were familiar with them, you could do them proficiently. The Li family worked in the field for another two days before the frame of the greenhouse was set up.

That morning, Li Yong measured it and rode his bicycle to the county to buy some thin film.

Li Zhiming and the others weren’t idle either. They went to the mountain to get some wood and planned to build a small wooden shed on the ground.

In the future, Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua planned to sleep here.

The family was busy when suddenly, a sharp voice came, “Yo, so busy!”

Ji Yuanyuan turned around and saw a middle-aged woman in her forties standing on the ground, looking at them with a mean face.

Liu Guihua was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, “Oh, it’s Yufang’s mother, why are you here today?”

Ji Yuanyuan stood beside Li Xu and looked at this woman without batting an eyelid.

From the looks of it, this was not a good person. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Seeing that your Li Lei is about to return, what do you thinking about the matter between him and Yufang?” Yufang’s mother slanted her eyes and kept looking at the greenhouse on the ground.

Ji Yuanyuan immediately understood that this woman was his first uncle’s future mother-in-law.

She secretly lit a candle in her heart for her uncle. It seemed that his future life would not be easy.

She did not know what her future aunt would be like, but she must not be like her mother.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuanyuan raised her head again.

Liu Guihua was not good with words, to begin with, so when she heard Yufang’s mother’s words, she was even more stunned.

A moment later, she said in a somewhat fawning manner, “This... when Xiao Lei comes back, let’s find a good day and let them go get the marriage certificate. You don’t have to worry about the wedding. We promise to make it a grand occasion...”

The last time Li Lei came back, he had stayed at home for a month. After successfully setting up the marriage with Liang Yufang, they arranged a betrothal. They had given the woman 600 Yuan as a betrothal gift.

Now, they were just waiting for Li Lei to come back and get married to Liang Yufang. After that, they would have a marriage.

When Yufang’s mother heard Liu Guihua’s words, she immediately raised her eyebrows, “Of course, you guys are in charge of the wedding. I’ve never heard of a lady’s family in charge of the wedding. Our Yufang has already waited for your Li Lei for three years. Only our family’s Yufang is easy to talk to. Which lady can wait for three years?”

Liu Guihua quickly said, “Yes, yes, yes. We all know that Yufang is good. When Yufang marries over, I guarantee that I will treat her like my own daughter.”

Li Xu and Li Miao stood together. The sisters’ expressions were not very good.

But they had no choice. Who asked their family to marry someone else’s daughter? Now, they could only be respectful to her. Otherwise, what would they do if they did not marry?

Yufang’s mother opened her mouth as if she wanted to refute. However, she quickly swallowed her words. Her eyes looked at the shed in the ground and then at Li Xu and Li Miao.

A moment later, she then said, “Our Yufang has been waiting for Your Li Lei for three years. In the blink of an eye, she has turned from a 20-year-old girl to a 23-year-old girl. In the past three years, the price of goods has increased by several times. Go out and ask around, which girl nowadays doesn’t have a betrothal gift of 3,500 yuan? Your Old Li family has really taken advantage of our Yufang...”

As Yufang’s mother said this, her mouth twitched, “Look at your house. The greenhouse is already up. I’ve heard from others that this greenhouse costs at least 3,000 to 5,000 yuan. How about this? I won’t ask for much, your family will pay another thousand Yuan to compensate for the price difference. When Li Lei comes back, I’ll get Yufang to go and get the certificate with him immediately.”

Ji Yuanyuan’s eyes widened when he heard this. He could not help but say, “Grandma, why do you say that like you’re selling things?”

She looked at Li Xu, “Right, Mom? That’s what we say when we’re selling vegetables!”

Good heavens, she really had never heard of a betrothal gift that needed to be compensated in price difference.

...

It was really a small knife that opened her eyes.

When Li Xu heard her daughter say this, although she felt a little relieved, she still said, “You don’t understand the matters of adults, go play with Big Brother.”

When Yufang’s mother heard this, she immediately glared at Ji Yuanyuan and said, “How can a little brat like you have the right to speak here?”

When Li Miao saw Yufang’s mother glaring angrily, as if she wanted to eat Ji Yuanyuan up, she immediately stood in front of Ji Yuanyuan, “Aunt, you speak as if our family has taken advantage of you. It wasn’t my Brother who made your Yufang wait. Back then, before my Brother left, he wanted to go with your Yufang to get married. At that time, your family wasn’t willing.”
