1968: At the beginning, the beautiful sister-in-law came to borrow food! Chapter 037

“Oh, my son!”

“Why did you have to die so young!”

“You married this jinx, and you became disabled right after you brought her home.”

“Now you don’t even have a child. I wonder if that jinx will even leave you an heir!”

“Good people don’t live long. Why couldn’t that smelly old hag die in my son’s place!”

The next morning, Li Yunfeng woke up to the sound of wailing coming from next door.

“Sigh!”

People just disappear like that, huh? It seems I need to start enjoying life more promptly!

As Uncle Benshan would say, the most painful thing for a person is to be alive and not have spent all their money.

“Husband, are you up?”

“It’s time to eat.”

“Oh, right, husband, other families who aren’t working are now eating two meals a day.”

“One meal around nine in the morning, and another around three or four in the afternoon.”

“Should we switch to two meals a day too?”

“I see we don’t have much grain left.”

Li Yunfeng had just opened his eyes when Natasha’s voice drifted over.

“No need, we’ll still have three meals a day. I’ll go to the black market tonight and buy some grain!”

With so many supplies on hand, Li Yunfeng had to get rid of them quickly.

Otherwise, the pork would spoil over time.

Next time, he couldn’t kill them all at once. He should just kill the chieftain directly.

For the rest, he’d kill one whenever he needed it. But it didn’t matter this time.

When the pork was about to go bad, Li Yunfeng could exchange it for other supplies with the villagers.

He could just say he hunted some prey and exchanged it for pork.

That way, he’d get practical benefits, and the villagers would also benefit.

“Husband, we want to go out and see later!”

During the meal, both women were full of curiosity, planning to go out and see.

Their customs were different from here; they had never witnessed a funeral procession before.

“Go ahead and watch!”

“I’ll be busy for a while.”

After eating his fill, Li Yunfeng opened the door and went to the cliff behind the house.

Then he took out a shovel and started working.

The temperature here was extremely low, especially in December, dropping to over thirty degrees below zero.

The ground behind the house was already frozen solid.

So Li Yunfeng had to burn some straw there first.

This would not only thaw the ground but also turn the straw into plant ash.

Which would help increase the fertility of the soil.

“Whoosh!”

Once the firewood started burning, Li Yunfeng began digging around the hot spring.

Li Yunfeng planned to build a hundred-square-meter greenhouse on his two hundred square meters of land.

He would cover both the left and right sides of the greenhouse, so no one could see what was going on inside.

Then he would dig a hot spring pool in front of the cliff.

He could then soak in the hot spring there and enjoy the scenery in front.

The scenery in this place was quite good!

“Brother Yunfeng?”

“What are you busy with?”

Li Yunfeng was busy working when the voices of Donkey and the others drifted over.

Li Yunfeng turned around and saw that the guys were already standing behind him.

“Hey, I’m just trying out building a greenhouse first!”

“If it works, then next year, our whole village can build greenhouses.”

“And then we’ll build terraced fields, and our harvest will get better!”

Li Yunfeng explained to them with a smile.

“So this is how you build a greenhouse!”

“Alright, we brothers don’t have anything else to do, we’ll help you out!”

“We were originally thinking of going to help Old Zhao’s family.”

“But they didn’t appreciate it at all. Old Mrs. Zhao was still cursing there.”

“What kind of people are they? You can even help wrong!”

“Wouldn’t it be better to go hunting and then come back for a drink instead?”

Donkey curled his lips and said, feeling speechless. He was truly fed up with Old Mrs. Zhao.

At this time, there were many shrewish women in the countryside.

But how to put it, someone like Old Mrs. Zhao was truly rare.

It is said that debts die with the person, and everyone came with good intentions to help.

Not only did she not express gratitude, but she also spoke sarcastically and ridiculed people.

Who would help them in the future? Not to mention the people from Group Five, even the people from their own Group Two didn’t want to deal with them.

It was just that their family had more men, otherwise, their family might have been beaten up badly!

A group of seven people, holding tools, began to work.

First, they dug a one-meter deep hot spring pool near the edge of the cliff.

They could take baths there later.

Then, they dug a twenty-centimeter wide trench around the two greenhouses for the hot spring water to flow through.

This would allow the hot spring to surround the entire area where the greenhouses were located.

Only then could the temperature inside the greenhouses be raised!

After that, they would dig two more pools in the very center of the greenhouse.

Then they would use wood to support a large shed and cover it with plastic sheeting.

As for planting inside, that would have to wait for a while, until the temperature inside rose and the ground completely thawed.

Only then would Li Yunfeng start planting!

On the other side, while Li Yunfeng and the others were building the greenhouse.

At this moment, Shuhua and Shufen were standing at the entrance of Old Zhao’s house, looking at the mourning hall.

Shuhua wanted to go and see Zhao Jianguo, after all, they had lived together for a long time.

If it weren’t for the fear of being driven out for not having a child, she wouldn’t have asked Li Yunfeng to “borrow a seed.”

Now that her husband was gone, and Li Yunfeng was so capable and willing to help her.

It didn’t matter whether she returned to Old Zhao’s house or not. Moreover, this house would still be hers in the future. She could bring her sister to live in it, even if everything in the house was taken.

She could buy some more things, and Li Yunfeng wouldn’t let her starve or freeze.

But her wicked mother-in-law was cursing her by name there.

This made her lose all desire to go to the mourning hall. She would just stand here for a while, take a look, and that would be enough.

This way, the villagers wouldn’t say anything, after all, it was her mother-in-law who was being unreasonable and cursing loudly.

Who could endure that?

“You’re Sister Shuhua, right?”

While Shuhua and Shufen were looking at the mourning hall.

Natasha and Sophia walked over.

“Let’s go, let’s go home first, don’t look anymore.”

“Your wicked mother-in-law is still cursing there.”

“You won’t have anything to do with them anymore.”

“We are family now!”

That night, when Li Yunfeng brought them back, they stayed with Shuhua.

The two sisters also knew about Li Yunfeng and Shuhua’s relationship.

Originally, while Zhao Jianguo was alive, what Li Yunfeng and she did was immoral.

But now, although it was still immoral, people wouldn’t say much.

After all, Shuhua had to survive, right?
