"We'll see when the time comes!"

Speaking of his mother, Ning Haitao frowned. He had experienced his mother's stubbornness before.

"That's the only way."

Liu Shufang was helpless. She had been through it from her previous life, and her mother-in-law had experienced it before, so it was understandable for her to be cautious and prudent.

What troubled her was that she knew the way to make money, but she couldn't show it because of the resistance.

When he came, Ning Haitao carried around forty to fifty catties on his back, which made it much easier for him to return. His miscellaneous belongings added together didn't weigh much.

When he returned to the village, it was already 2 in the afternoon. It was so hot that he was covered in sweat. Hai Tao's face was sunburned even darker.

Every day at this time, most of the villagers would be taking a nap at home or squatting in groups of twos and threes under the shade of the trees to talk about the mountain.

The moment they entered the village, the people who were chatting under the big tree at the village entrance saw Li Guizhen, who was also the creditor of the Ning Family.

The man, Yu Deshui and Ning Haitao's father, was a loyal brother. After the incident with Hai Tao's father, he took out all the money in the family, and when Hai Tao got married, he contributed generously to the family. From beginning to end, the Ning family owed the family almost 200 yuan, which was considered a huge amount at the time.

Li Guizhen was very dissatisfied with her husband's actions, but after having given birth to two girls, she was already three times inferior in front of a man. Since she did not have the courage to become a family member, she decided to vent her anger on the Ning family.

At this moment, squatting under the big tree and chatting with someone was about the Ning Family changing their marriage. His mouth was curled up and his face was filled with disdain.

"Do you know? There's something different about changing the engagement. Ning Haitao's sister is going to marry the bride's brother, what do you think about this generation? "

"Exactly! This is the first time I've heard of it, and only Zhang Sanhua can think of one. "

Wang Hongxia's mother was also a woman with a long tongue. She looked down on the Ning Family and was extremely poor, making it hard for her to turn things around in her lifetime.

"Hai Tao is indeed a talented man. He's just a poor family. If not, he'd be a good match for your daughter."

Li Guizhen knew about the matter between Ning Haitao and Wang Hongxia, and also knew that Wang Hongxia had married a citizen. She shouldn't have said these words to Wang Family's daughter, as she had a bad reputation.

Wang Hongxia's mother rolled her eyes at Li Guizhen, but she didn't like to mention it the most. Her daughter didn't even have eyes, and seeing Ning Haitao, she felt like she lost her soul.

She scolded her for a while, but Wang Hongxia threw her ponytail and lay down on the brick bed crying, making her angry.

Right now, Li Guizhen was talking about other teapots too. She looked unhappy, but her voice sounded cold.

"Aunt Yu, you can't speak carelessly about this. My daughter married into the city. That's an iron-clad woman."

"Yes, yes. Your daughter is so amazing."

Li Guizhen pouted. Who didn't know that the Wang family loved to get rich because they were poor?

"Look, he's here just like that. Isn't that the son of the Ning family? The one beside him is his new wife. She's pretty, not as bad as your daughter. "

Second Aunt Li and Wang Hongxia's mother were at loggerheads. When she raised her eyes, she saw Ning Haitao walking down the mountain holding her daughter-in-law's hand. It looked like they loved each other.

"She? Can you compare to my daughter? "

Wang Hongxia's mother had also seen it. In terms of appearance, Liu Shufang was not any less than her daughter. In fact, her gentle temperament was even more striking than hers.

"What's going on? Carrying a basket? "

Li Guizhen's thoughts were different from theirs. She was thinking about her own family's money, which was more than two hundred yuan. She had accumulated that money through her teeth, but the Ning family had spent all of it on her.

"Of course, going over the mountain is within the county. They must have gone to buy something."

Second Aunt Li didn't think too much about it. She was actually one of the quiet creditors. However, her family's days were good, so she wasn't in a hurry to get the money.

"This side owes us money, which side should we enjoy?"

Li Guizhen narrowed her eyes. Under the mottled shade of the tree, her face was frighteningly gloomy.

"But what do you mean! "Forget it, since I've already borrowed it, why should I blame him for spending it?"

Second Aunt Li did not think much of what Li Guizhen said. Which family didn't save money through their teeth?

He hadn't spent any money, so why would he spend so much for someone else? It would be strange if he was happy.

"No, I have to go and take a look. I need money."

Li Guizhen could not hold it in anymore, so she took a few steps forward to welcome Ning Haitao. Although she wasn't tall, her walking speed was like a gust of wind.

She hurried over to Ning Haitao and asked indifferently before he could even open his mouth.

"Oh, isn't this Hai Tao? Where did you go? "

"Aunt, I brought my wife to the county. Shufang, this is Aunt Yu."

Ning Haitao saw that Li Guizhen had a headache. She had to pay the bill twice at home, and the words she said were not nice. Every time she left, her mother would wipe away tears.

Liu Shufang could tell by his words and how unkind he was. Anger could still be seen in her eyes, as if he was looking for trouble.

Although he was thinking this in his heart, a smile still hung on his face: "Hello, Auntie Yu."

Her voice was clear and melodious, full of courtesy.

"Mm, in the end, she's still a new wife. She's pretty, but she's not like us old ladies. It's as if we've all withered away like radishes."

Her tone of voice was strange, filled with jealousy.

Li Guizhen did not look good. Not to mention that she was almost forty now, she had never looked good even when she was at the age of nineteen.

When she was married to Yu Di Shui, her face was full of pimples, and her body was even darker. On the night of the bridal ceremony, Yu Di Shui didn't touch her, but there was a clear look in his eyes.

Therefore, she was jealous that someone else was prettier than her. She didn't want to see other men being nice to their wife. That way, she would feel wronged living her life.

Today, not only was Liu Shufang beautiful, but Ning Haitao clearly doted on her. He carried two baskets on his back and couldn't bear to let his wife suffer any hardship.

"How can that be? Aunty is joking, I'm not a good person."

Liu Shufang said humbly, thinking to get rid of this woman as soon as possible. The sun was so hot that it was hard to breathe, and she was also tired from walking on the mountain path. She wanted to go home quickly and take a bath to cool herself.

"Hai Tao, Mother is still waiting for us!" Aunt, when you have time, take a seat at home. "

Then, she wanted to pull Ning Hai Tao away, but Li Gui Zhen didn't even seem to want to give way. She gloomily looked at the basket on Ning Hai Tao's back, thinking that Ning Hai had said something bad.
