Chapter 55: What more can a husband ask for when he has such a wife?

"Li Huan, stop, it's still daytime, and you can't be laughed at."

"I will blow the head off whoever dares to make a joke. We are a serious couple."

Li Huan said the harshest words, but he had already stood up. You don't have to listen to other people's words, but you must listen to your wife's words.

"Let's go see your mother, no, our mother."

Cheng Qiao picked up the cotton sweater and pants, as well as the pair of rubber shoes he bought last time, and walked to the living room. Li's mother and Li Le were happily cracking melon seeds. Today was her first day as a mother-in-law, but

Gotta have a good time.

"Mom, Lele, this is for you."

Li Le jumped up and took the clothes from Cheng Qiao's hands. When he saw they were cotton sweaters and pants, tears instantly wet his eyes. Thinking that today was the wedding day of his second brother and second sister-in-law, it was unlucky to shed tears. He quickly raised his head and forced the

I held back my tears.

"This is yours, this is my mother's."

Cheng Qiao pretended not to notice, and gave a set of maroon cotton sweaters and trousers to Li's mother, and a set of rubber red cotton sweaters and trousers to Li Le.

"Daughter, your money didn't come from the strong wind. How can you be so lavish? Let's collect more firewood now. Then we can burn the kang and it won't be cold."

Mother Li said this, but her hands kept groping for the cotton sweaters and pants. They were so soft, they must be very comfortable to wear.

"Mom, please try on these rubber shoes to see if they fit properly."

"Oh, you girl, you are really crazy. Why did you buy such expensive shoes? They were wasted."

"Mom, I will plant rice next spring. With these shoes, your feet will not step in the water. Try it now."

"Hey, let me try..."

Mother Li's tears, which she had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore. They fell to the ground drop by drop, and were absorbed cleanly by the mud in a blink of an eye.

"Exactly, the size is just right, how do you know what size my feet are."

Mother Li's unintentional words made Li Huan glance at Cheng Qiao. Yes, he didn't even know what size his mother's feet were, so how could Cheng Qiao know?

"This is not easy. I can see it at a glance. Li Huan wears shoes of size 40, Lele wears shoes of size 33, and I wear shoes of size 36."

"Second sister-in-law, you are so awesome, I can't tell you."

Li Le smiled and slapped a rainbow fart.

"Mom, Lele, you guys can take a good bath later, put on new clothes, and have a comfortable sleep. Tomorrow our whole family will go to the mountains to collect firewood, okay?"

"Okay, I listen to my second sister-in-law, I'll boil water later."

Li Le agreed immediately. She wanted to put on those soft cotton sweaters and trousers so much. She had never known how cotton sweaters and trousers felt when she grew so big.

"I'm going to find someone to dig a well tomorrow. Be careful. You're not allowed to go into the mountains, you know?"

Li Huan said seriously that if he didn't find someone to dig a well, he would not be willing to leave Cheng Qiao.

"Okay, you two go back to the house, we will leave this place to you."

Mother Li waved her hand and wanted to drive the two of them to the new house. Cheng Qiao lowered her head shyly, but Li Huan shook her head, looked at Mother Li and said:

"Mom, let me tell you something. Starting from tomorrow, I will leave the house to my daughter-in-law, and Lele will help my daughter-in-law."

Mother Li's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that her son had a wife and had forgotten his mother? She wanted to ask clearly, but Cheng Qiao was nearby and she was embarrassed to ask.

"Second brother, will the second sister-in-law be the head of the house starting from tomorrow? Will the money and food in the family be given to the second sister-in-law?"

When Li Le heard what Li Huan said, he quickly raised his head, opened his eyes wide, looked at Li Huan and asked.

"No need. The money you and your mother earn, as well as the money your elder brother gives you, should be kept by yourself. The family will leave it to me and my wife. It's time for you to go to school, and it's time for my mother to enjoy happiness."

Mother Li finally understood what Li Huan meant, and a big stone fell in her heart. As long as her son did not dislike her as an old woman, otherwise her eldest son was not married yet, and Li Le was not married yet, so she had nothing in her hand.

Money is not enough.

"Going to school, but this semester is almost over."

"Then it's spring. Your second sister-in-law has already bought you books and notebooks. When winter comes, I will learn culture from your second sister-in-law every day."

"I……"

"Lele, according to your second sister-in-law and second brother, there is a huge difference between a girl who can read and a girl who can't read. Do you know that?"

Mother Li did not expect that on the first day Cheng Qiao got married, she would ask Li Le to study. This was a good thing. How could she not support it, but Li Le, a silly girl, seemed not to be happy.

"Mom, does our family still have money for me to go to school?"

"have"

Cheng Qiao and Li's mother said in unison. Li Huan felt warm in his heart and hugged Cheng Qiao's slim waist in front of his mother and sister. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for.

"Mom, when I finish the house over there, we will move there, and you and Lele will sleep in the new house."

"That won't work. Let's keep it for your elder brother."

"I don't know when brother will come back. You and Lele should go to bed first, otherwise it will be too cold in winter. Don't freeze."

Mother Li smiled and nodded in agreement. Every winter, Lele squeezed tightly into her arms, but the two of them were still shivering from the cold. Even if they burned the kang, it was useless. There was really air leakage everywhere in the house.

.

"The lunch meal is finished. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare the evening meal. Lele, please help me get some firewood."

Li's mother wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Li Huan. He took Li's mother into the new house and took out five or six pieces of cloth from the cabinet: "Mom, please help Lele and Cheng Qiao make some sets of clothes, and you

I also have to make two sets.”

Mother Li looked at the fabrics of various colors, all of which were khaki fabrics for coats, and nodded to accept them. She knew what her son was doing, so she returned to her room without asking anything.

Cheng Qiao turned around and went to the kitchen, found a few empty earthenware jars and asked Li Le to clean them. Then these earthenware jars could be filled with rice, flour and oil.

Glancing around, he saw that there was no one around. A piece of fat pork appeared on the stove. Cheng Qiao quickly washed the pork, cut it into pieces, put it into a large pot, added water, and prepared to boil the lard.

Mother Li smelled the aroma of lard in the room, and quickly came out, grabbed the spatula from Cheng Qiao's hand, and drove Cheng Qiao out of the kitchen. How could a new daughter-in-law cook on the first day she entered the house?

Cheng Qiao quietly stuck out her tongue. She just put more than ten kilograms of rice, flour, pork and bacon in the kitchen. She didn't believe that her mother-in-law would ignore the good things and not cook them. After all, today was the day for her and Li Huan to get married.

day.

Sure enough, there was meat for dinner, as well as white flour steamed buns and a pot of rice porridge. The four of them sat at the dinner table and ate happily. As soon as they finished eating, a large group of young people came to have a wedding ceremony.

After Li Le and Li's mother cleared the dining table, they set up a large pot and boiled water, then returned to their room, thinking that after the wedding ceremony was over, they could lock the door, take a shower, and go to bed.

Just a burst of noise came over and attracted Li's mother and Li Le who were about to make clothes.
