Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland Chapter 789

Chapter 789: Chapter 790: Someone Comes to Ask for Food_1 Chapter 789: Chapter 790: Someone Comes to Ask for Food_1 Yun's father turned to his wife, “Xiaomen's family has started harvesting already.”

The rice they planted first has reached the harvest stage now.

“Should we go help?”

Yun's mother worried that receiving help from the eldest and the second child's families would lead to idle gossip.

“Let's still go help them out for a few days tomorrow, regardless of what the eldest and second child say, they are busy harvesting.”

Although it was a dry season, the fields still needed to be harvested, and obtaining even a little grain would be the best outcome.

After Yun's father and mother helped Yun Men for five days, their own rice was ready for harvesting, and they started to harvest it.

In the end, they harvested over 700 pounds of rice from this one acre of land.

Both Yun's father and mother were incredibly excited.

Yun Shuang only had six acres, but because they had many people, the work was completed quickly and she helped Yun Men's family again.

In the end, from Yun Men's ten acres of land, they harvested over 5000 pounds of rice and after delivering the obligatory crop share, they were left with a few thousand pounds of rice.

Undeniably, it was a fruitful year.

They were filled with joy.

But, right at this moment, Zhang Jiang's parents showed up asking for grain.

The news infuriated Yun's mother and she headed straight to their house.

“Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, did you two decide to ask for grain on your own or was it your eldest daughter-in-law's idea? All these years, you've been staying with the eldest child's family and helping them out. You didn't even bother to visit or take care of Xiaomen during her confinement period, but as soon as you found out that Zhang Jiang's family has harvested such a huge quantity of grain, you show up asking for some. How could you be so shameless? The partition was made clear back then. Xiaomen, go straight to the village head. After all, he was a witness back then. If all else fails, call your third sister-in-law, she's a lawyer now.”

“Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, we made things clear back then. You insisted on staying with your eldest child's family. Now you show up asking for grain. Isn't that inappropriate? How can you even justify this? When Zhang Jiang was with you, you handed over eggs and grain to your eldest child's family. Zhang Jiang's family didn't have grain to eat for several years and his child became thin as a rake. You all managed to be indifferent. Why have you shown up now?”

Little Zhuzi fixated on Zhang Jiang's parents, with two little ones standing behind him.

Zhang Jiang's parents were taken aback and deflated instantly.

“Liao widow, don't think that I don't know that you're instigating all this. Are you bullying Xiaomen just because she doesn't have a mother? We issued declaration letters about breaking things off back then.” Yun's mother pointed at Zhang Jiang's oldest sister-in-law and began scolding.

“What the… What the…”

Zhang family's village and Qingzhao Village were adjacent and they had already heard about the grain harvesting from the village head of Qingzhao Village.

“Village head, you're here. You must know about the whole situation already. Zhang Jiang's parents suddenly showed up asking for grain. Even though this is part of their maintenance, they haven't behaved like parents all these years. Zhang Jiang's family suffered so much, lived such a difficult life. Remember when something happened to Niuniu a few years ago? We had to go to them begging for help. Do you remember what they said then? Now that Zhang Jiang has managed to harvest some grain this year, they show up.”

“Old Zhang, you severed ties back then. Why are you showing up asking for grain now?”

“Village head, we raised Zhang Jiang for a while. He should give us grain,” Zhang's father said weakly.

Zhang Jiang clenched his fists hard, the veins popping in his face.

If not for his third sister-in-law, they wouldn't even have dared to harvest this much.

The grain seeds, the fertilizers.

“How much?”

“Five hundred pounds.” Zhang's mother barely managed to mutter a figure.

Yun's mother immediately began scolding, “Do you even have any shame? Zhang Jiang is your only son and you want this much. I won't say any more, but now you're staying with your eldest son's family. Do you want Zhang Jiang to provide for that entire family as well? I won't let that happen.”
