Chapter 50: All Eyes on Her Money Bag

Uncle Guai drove the ox cart and sent the people directly to the door. He had eaten two big meat buns from Shen Meng today, and now he had endless energy. Not only did he help to carry the children down one by one, he also delivered the things bought on the cart to the main room.

"Zhenping's wife, I'll go back now. Haha, if you go to the county town again next time, call me!"

Shen Meng hurriedly grabbed a handful of candy from the bag and stuffed it into Uncle Guai's hand.

"Uncle Guai, take it home and play with the child. I won't have to trouble you next time. Jinghao is going to give birth in a few months. If I go to the county town then, I will have to trouble you again."

"Oh my, how can I take so many? Just give me two." With so many candies, he felt a little embarrassed no matter how thick-skinned he was.

"Just take it. You've been tired all day. Go back and rest early!"

Uncle Guai happily stuffed the candies into his pocket, said goodbye to the children and Xie Jinghao before driving the ox cart away. After Shen Meng packed up her things, she asked Lu Mingyang to take his younger brothers and sisters to wash their hands, and then ran out to play with them.

"Hello Jing, I'll take you back. Don't let anything unpleasant come out and you won't be able to handle it."

"It's okay, sister-in-law. I thought about it for a long time last night and I think you are right. I have to stand up, even if not for myself, but for Xiaogang and the baby in my belly. You are also tired all day, take a rest!"

Shen Meng glanced at her for a few seconds, then packed up the things and medicine given to her, packaged them, and placed them on her shoulder.

"Xiaogang, go home with your mother. Come to our house for dinner tomorrow. Auntie will stew pig's trotters for you."

"Wow~ OK, thank you, auntie, you are so nice."

Xiaogang has been with his older brothers and sisters for a long time. Like Xiaokai, he learned some words from Lu Mingliang to please others. His little mouth is as sweet as honey and he always says them.

"You have such a sweet mouth. I'll ask your brother Mingyang to bring you something delicious tonight."

Xie Jinghao smiled and took Xiaogang's hand and brought the child back home.

The atmosphere in the Lu family was bad and very awkward. When Xie Jinghao entered the yard, everyone in the family looked at her.

In fact, she was also a little puzzled. It was only the afternoon, why didn't the Zhou family go to work again? Aren't they worried that they wouldn't get much when the grain and meat were distributed at the end of the year?

Wu Xianglan felt a little guilty and embarrassed when she looked at her. Normally, she always acted like a sister-in-law, and the relationship between the two of them was not bad. But yesterday, she made her so angry that she had a miscarriage. She was just greedy and didn't really mean to harm Xie Jinghao.

After a moment of hesitation, he smiled stiffly and said, "Jinghao, you went to the hospital. What did the doctor say? Why did you bring back such a big bag of medicine? Is it serious?"

She is a mother herself. If something really happened to Xie Jinghao's child because of her, she would have nightmares every day!
Xie Jinghao blinked for a moment, pursed his lips, and looked at her a little sadly. "The doctor said the baby is injured. I'm afraid I'll have to go to the hospital for a caesarean section when it's born. I'm still in pain, so I'll go back to the room first."

Wu Xianglan looked at Xie Jinghao's back with a pale face. At this time, Lu Jiahe snorted coldly.

"Wu Xianglan, let me tell you, if something happens to my sister-in-law's child and Jiasheng makes a fuss, I will not side with you."

Wu Xianglan did not dare to retort. She turned her head and glanced at Zhou Jiaojiao as if for help, but the latter did not even look at her and acted as if it had nothing to do with her.

Lu Jiahe cursed at Wu Xianglan. He had already taught her a lesson last night. This woman always brought shame to him. If the woman was disobedient, he could just beat her up, but no matter what, he could not hurt the relationship between him and his brother.

He was very anxious. He had not worked all day and had lost all his work points for the day. By the end of the year, his share of food would definitely be much less, so he was a little worried.

"Mom, if my eldest brother wants to divide the family, then so be it. We've already given her the food and money last time. Just go to her house and tell her. We already have our own kitchen and meals, so what's the difference with dividing the family? But you can't give the private plot to Shen Meng. That woman is a lazy bum. Can she grow crops well?"

Liu Sanjin's heart was bleeding. If the family was divided, her family would have a lot less income. Not only would the gifts from the village cadres and county leaders during the holidays be sent to the first wife, but she would also not be able to get the money sent by the army. From now on, she would have to rely on Zhenping's three yuan pension every month. Life would be very tight then. How could she feel at ease!
"Mother, Jiaxuan's matter is urgent. The salary of a commune official is seven yuan a month. It's a lucrative job. Many people with connections are eyeing it. If he can't get the job this time, I don't know how long he will have to wait in the future. Mother, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the branch family are still your sons and daughters-in-law. If there is any problem at home, can they just give up their responsibilities?"

Lu Jiaxuan had been whispering with Liu Sanjin in the room early in the morning about the powerful relationship. He was also very nervous. If his mother was unwilling to divide the family, then his dream of becoming an official would be shattered.

"Mom, there is still a lot of time, and we brothers will be able to honor you."

Seeing that the fourth brother and his wife had been urging his mother to split the family property, Lu Jiahe thought for a while and then followed suit.

"Mom, it's not easy for the fourth child to have such a good opportunity. You should divide the family. I still say that the private plot cannot be divided. If you want to divide it, you have to subsidize our second and third rooms. You can't let the first room and the fourth child get all the benefits!"

Lu Jiahe has never cared about these things. But today, no one knows what happened, he seemed very anxious.

Liu Sanjin had already decided to divide the family business, but he didn't expect that at this moment, his second son, who only knew how to work, would ask for benefits from him.

"Second brother, what did you say?"

"Mom, don't look at me like that. I am the only one who does manual labor at home. I am not as skilled as the third child, not as educated as the fourth child, and certainly not as capable as my eldest brother. I just want to work and earn regular work points, so that I can have something to eat. But mom, if you live with the eldest child or the fourth child, then won't our second room starve to death? If you can give me a little, it's ok to let Xianglan make a new pair of shoes for the child, okay?"

Wu Xianglan's eyes lit up, and all her resentment towards Lu Jiahe disappeared without a trace at this moment. Although this man was not considerate, he was a man of few plans and he still cared about his wife and children.

After Lu Jiahe brought up the idea, the main hall fell silent. The Lu family's money has always been in Liu Sanjin's hands. Now that the old house is to be divided up, everyone in the family is eyeing her purse. How can she not be angry!
