Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 143: Homecoming

"Yueyue, Niannian, Auntie in the East Room has cleaned it for you!"

After hearing this, the brother and sister smiled and said to Qin in unison: "Thank you, aunt!"

Qin gently patted the siblings' backs and said, "Good children."

Then, she turned to Jiang Wuwen and his son and said, "These two kids are really adored."

When Grandfather Jiang Wuwen heard Qin's praise for An Nian An Yue in person, he responded without hesitation: "Yes, yes, yes, the two children will be with you from now on. I hope you can help take care of them!"

Everyone go into the east room.

As soon as she entered the east room, An Yue discovered that the structure of the village chief's east room was similar to that of the An family, but the village chief's east room was more spacious than that of the An family.

Qin asked the father and son to place the siblings' belongings on the bed frame.

She turned to the An family and said, "There is only one bed in this room right now, and the bed frame is old. You adults should think of a way to sleep on the floor or something."

After hearing this, the eldest aunt-in-law Zhang squeezed forward and asked with dissatisfaction on her face: "Aunt Li, our family..." Before she could finish her words, she was pulled back by her mother-in-law Zhou.

Zhou glanced at Zhang and whispered, "If you can't speak, then don't talk nonsense!"

Zhou left Zhang behind her and walked towards Qin, saying humbly, "Sister-in-law, our master is still strong! This bed should be given to the two little kids."

After hearing what Zhou said, Qin didn't say another word.

She turned around, bent down, put her hands gently on Anyue's shoulders, and said kindly: "Yueyue, you haven't had lunch yet, you must be hungry now, right?"

When An Yue was asked this by Qin, she nodded at Qin, and then shook her head.

But my stomach was not cooperating and it was growling with hunger at this moment.

Qin lovingly helped An Yue tidy up the hair on her cheeks and said softly, "Okay! Yueyue, don't be polite to your aunt! There are a few cooked sweet potatoes in the kitchen. I'll heat them up and bring them to you to fill your stomachs first!"

After Qin finished speaking, she walked out of the east room.

Grandfather and uncle went to the room to spread out straw mats and quilts without saying a word. After Qin left, An Yue hurried forward to help.

Grandfather An Chengde, grandmother Zhou and others stood blankly in the hall of the east room, looking around with frowns on their faces.

An Yue looked at their bewildered expressions and felt inexplicably happy.

After making the bed, the grandfather said to the siblings, "Year after year, month after month, the bed is made. It is getting late now, so we will go back first and come back tomorrow morning."

An Yue pulled her grandfather and uncle into the yard. She whispered something to them. After she finished speaking, the father and son nodded at An Yue with a knowing smile.

Afterwards, the father and son walked out of the gate of the village chief's house and prepared to return to the Jiang family.

My uncle was walking in front, leading the cow, and my grandfather was walking behind. The brother and sister stood at the gate of the yard, watching their grandfather and uncle slowly walk away.

At this time, Qin came out of the main house with the heated sweet potatoes and just happened to see the brother and sister in the yard.

Qin waved to the brother and sister, smiling and calling out, "Nian Nian, Yue Yue, come here quickly."

The brother and sister walked quickly towards Qin, who handed the big bowl in her hand to them and said, "Yueyue, there are only four sweet potatoes. You two should eat some first to fill your stomach. When it's time for dinner, you two can come to our room and have dinner with us."

"Aunt, that won't do. We are already bothering you by living with you, how can we trouble you to provide us with food? That's not right, that's not right." An Yue waved her hand and declined.

Qin pretended to be displeased and continued earnestly, "Yueyue, we will move around in the same yard from now on, so don't be so reserved. Your aunt is happy to live here!"

After hearing what Qin said, An Yue couldn't refuse anymore. She raised her hand, picked up a sweet potato from the bowl, took a light bite and chewed it.

She smiled sweetly at Qin and said, "This sweet potato is sweet and soft, so delicious."

After hearing what his sister said, An Nian also picked up a sweet potato and started eating it.

Seeing that the siblings were no longer restrained, Qin invited them warmly, "Let's go to Auntie's room and sit on the stool to eat."

Everyone in the east room bowed their heads and kept silent. Each of them had his or her own little thoughts in mind, which added up to more than eight hundred.

The east room is divided into three areas: hall, rooms and kitchen.

The kitchen was at the back, and there were no pots, pans, or bowls on the stove, just a bare stove. There was not even a dead leaf under the stove, let alone firewood.

Regarding the room, Qin emphasized that the room belongs to Anyan and Anyue's private area.

The hall is spacious, but it doesn't have a single table or chair, making it look extremely empty.

So, from the current perspective, it is no exaggeration to say that the family is penniless.

Zhang looked around the east room and couldn't help muttering, "This room has nothing in it. It's such a shabby place with bare walls. How are we going to get through tonight?"

Anqing stepped forward to comfort her: "Mom, don't be sad yet. I still have a few silver coins in my hand. I will go to the town to buy some straw mats and quilts in a while."

Zhang nodded to her son with satisfaction, then lowered her head and said sadly, "The money is all in our old house. The fire is still burning now. I don't know if I can find the money anymore. Oh! There are so many things to buy in the future! You two just got married, how can you have money to build a new house?"

Grandmother Zhou looked at Zhang's half-dead appearance and scolded her angrily: "Look at the way you look like a funeral! It makes me angry just looking at you!"

As soon as Zhou started talking, Zhang stopped chattering and the whole room became quiet.

Because the fire disrupted their normal lives, everyone lowered their heads in thought.

Suddenly, the room was silent, so silent that even everyone's breathing could be heard clearly.

Grandfather An Chengde stood at the door with his hands behind his back, facing outside and saying to everyone: "Now that things have come to this, don't hide it anymore. Take out all the money you have!"

Anqing walked up to Meng Xiuer, and Meng Xiuer took out the money on her body and handed it to Anqing.

Anqing held the silver and said to everyone, "This is the only silver we have."

Then, everyone's eyes began to look at An Tiancai and Zhang.

Zhang turned around and took out the silver money she had on her body. She handed it over reluctantly and said, "These are the only few I have on me."

Then, many pairs of eyes turned to Zhou. Zhou crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a guilty look, "Why are you all looking at me?"

An Chengde turned around and walked quickly to Zhou, frowning and glaring at her, and shouted:
