Chen Dachun waved his hand and patted Chen Xiaobei's shoulder gently, "I told you before that I don't want rent. If you say anything else, you will treat me like an outsider."

Well, Chen Xiaobei gave up at this point.

"Okay, Brother Dachun, if you need any help in the future, just ask. By the way, I will also visit your house when I arrive in the county."

When I came back from the fields, the sun was already setting, and Cui Hongyu had already started cooking dinner.

Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming back, Chen Qiaoer jumped up to greet him again, "Brother, brother, sister-in-law said that we will eat vegetables grown by ourselves tonight."

Chen Xiaobei looked at Cui Hongyu in surprise. Are the vegetables in the field ready so quickly?

Cui Hongyu stepped forward, looking a little embarrassed, "Husband, I have been waiting for you for a long time, so I made the decision without authorization. I thought that since we want to sell it in the county, we have to taste it first to see if it tastes good and whether it is poisonous. Otherwise we wouldn’t be able to sell this dish at ease.”

Chen Xiaobei laughed after hearing this.

"This is normal. What's the point of making the decision without permission? Remember, you can make the decision on all the big and small matters in the family from now on. You don't need to ask my opinion."

"Yes, your opinion is my opinion."

After hearing what Chen Xiaobei said, Cui Hongyu's eyes widened in disbelief. She quickly realized what she was doing, shaking her head like a rattle and shaking her hands in front of her.

"No, no, my husband has the final say in everything. I..."

Chen Xiaobei stepped forward, took her hand, and said emotionally, "Hongyu, you and I are husband and wife. We have to discuss anything, so your opinion is my opinion."

Cui Hongyu's face turned redder.

Seeing the red face like the red apples in autumn, Chen Xiaobei couldn't hold back and immediately took Cui Hongyu into his arms and gave him a peck on the face.

Now Chen Qiaoer next to her was happy, clapped her hands, and shouted loudly, "Shame, shame, diu diu diu, brother and sister-in-law are married."

After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei left Cui Hongyu and turned to catch Chen Qiaoer, "You little girl, let's see if I don't spank you."

Chen Qiaoer screamed in fright, ran around the big locust tree twice, and threw herself into Cui Hongyu's arms.

When Cui Hongyu saw this scene, his heart felt warm and his face was filled with a happy smile.

Chen Xiaobei was completely different from the legend. Now she was completely relieved. This was a man worthy of being entrusted to her for life.

After comforting Chen Qiaoer, she turned around and went into the kitchen. After a burst of fragrant aroma, a hot plate of fried vegetables came out of the oven. Cui Hongyu added lard and it tasted naturally delicious.

While eating, Chen Xiaobei smiled and joked with Cui Hongyu, "Don't worry now, this dish is edible and not poisonous."

Cui Hongyu nodded in agreement, with a happy smile on his face again.

Frankly speaking, after marrying into Chen Xiaobei's family, the standard of food she ate was no worse than at home, or even better.

Just like lard, she couldn't eat it every time at home.

However, Chen Xiaobei was still not satisfied with this standard. Cui Hongyu's behavior of trying the dishes tonight reminded him.

He just went to the county town every day to sell medicinal materials.

Although I also went back to buy food.

But what are they? Rice, bread, lard, bones, I just didn’t think about buying vegetables.

If we catch fish in the morning, we will eat fish at home. If we don’t catch fish, we will eat a few slices of pickles. I feel a little sorry for Cui Hongyu.

Thinking of this, he secretly made up his mind to sell vegetables by himself tomorrow and discuss with Lao Wu to replace some vegetables that he didn't have, so as to ensure that Hong Yu and Qiao'er could have food for every meal.

Early the next morning, Chen Xiaobei got up before dawn.

He rushed to the river with the umbrella net to try his luck. If he was lucky enough to catch two fish, he could also increase his income.

Even if you get a few small fish, Hongyu and Qiaoer can have a tooth-fighting ceremony.

His luck was obviously very good today. After a while, he caught a big fish. This fish was really big, one and a half feet long.

Chen Xiaobei was secretly happy when he saw this fish. The large water bag he ordered finally came in handy.

Until the sun came out, Chen Xiaobei caught two more fish, one was nearly a foot long and the other was half a foot long.

Chen Xiaobei ran home, took a large water bag, rushed to the river and filled it with water, and carefully put two big fish in. As for the half-foot-long fish, he simply used an umbrella. Take the net home.

Chen Qiaoer became excited when she saw there was fish to eat, jumping up and down.

Cui Hongyu frowned and waved his hands repeatedly, "Husband, since I have a water bag to bring live fish over, even if it is smaller, maybe the restaurant will accept it."

But Chen Xiaobei shook his head firmly, "No, I won't sell it even if I take it. I want to keep this fish for my wife to eat."

Facing this naked show of love, Cui Hongyu obviously didn't adapt, and his face turned red.

Looking at the red apple, Chen Xiaobei really couldn't hold himself back.

In his previous life, he was a Dios.

But he also has seven emotions and six desires. I once studied under a teacher in that light or dark hut.

But now I have a talent but I can't use it.

Yes, the culprit is Chen Qiaoer, this drag girl.

After looking at Chen Qiaoer, Chen Xiaobei shook his head helplessly.

I'm afraid I will have to endure it for a few more days before the house is reinforced.

Today's trip to the county town seemed relaxed and happy. Chen Xiaobei leaned leisurely on the donkey cart.

A large water bag is hung on the donkey's back to ensure that the water does not spill out. As for the Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, you have to keep them in front of you.

He left leisurely, but the whole Hetou Village exploded.

"Look at Chen Xiaobei, who is ignorant and has no skills, so he can marry a good wife!"

"Who says it's not true? Cui Hongyu brought a lot of things as a dowry, and that light silk satin pulled a carriage."

"Yes, look, Chen Xiaobei also bought a donkey cart now."

"We only have three donkey carts in our village, tsk tsk."

Listening to the villagers' discussions, the head of the village, Chen Anbang, felt uncomfortable.

He said with a sullen face, "Chen Xiaobei, a prodigal, will sooner or later ruin all Hong Yu's dowry."

After saying these few words, he was not satisfied, and he cursed a few more. Seeing that he was unhappy, the villagers did not dare to say more, so they had to disperse.

At this time, an uninvited guest also arrived at the entrance of the village.

This is a young man who looks a little lean.

A member of the village protection team on duty at the entrance of the village, named Chen Daqiang, immediately shouted, "Who are you and what are you doing in our Hetou Village?"

The young man laughed along and hugged Chen Daqiang, "Brother, I'm here to visit relatives. Chen Yutian is my uncle."

When he heard that he was Chen Yutian's nephew, Chen Daqiang smiled and said, "Ah, you go in, follow the tree in front and turn in."

At this time, Chen Daqiang did not realize that an event that could change the pattern of Hetou Village was about to happen.
