Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Her Own Man Doesn’t Dare Co Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Her Own Man Doesn’t Dare Co They just couldn’t wait and had to co over to check.
“Eldest Aunt Fang, did you co to see Grandma?” Where was Fang Chaoyang unaware of the reason for Eldest Aunt Fang’s visit?
To see if Grandma had died yet?
That would truly disappoint them.
Grandma was still very much alive, and her complexion was getting better and better.
She drank milk powder three tis a day, along with an egg and the rice porridge that was cooked.
Grandma Fang was being well taken care of.
Eldest Aunt Fang forced a smile, “I ca to see Grandma, to see your grandma.”
Her own husband didn’t dare co.
Eldest Aunt Fang seed to have forgotten that it was she who didn’t allow her husband to visit Grandma Fang, fearing that Eldest Uncle Fang would beco soft-hearted and offer to contribute financially.
This ti was no different.
She ca alone to see her mother-in-law.
“Eldest Aunt Fang….” Fang iyun greeted her softly upon seeing her.
And Eldest Aunt Fang saw the mother-in-law sitting in the hall’s chair.
She didn’t look like soone who had been ill for a long ti.
“You ca to see ?”
This voice didn’t sound like it belonged to soone who was ill.
Wasn’t it said that she couldn’t even get out of bed?
Who then, was sitting in that chair?
“Mother, I ca to see you.”
“You ca empty-handed?”
Eldest Aunt Fang’s face struggled to maintain its composure.
Besides the grain provided for elder care each year, she would not give even a single extra grain of rice.
“Mother, it’s good you’re fine; I’ll head back now.” Having seen her, Eldest Aunt Fang no longer wished to stay.
“By the way, Mother, Xiao Yang is not getting any younger; it’s ti he got a wife,” Eldest Aunt Fang said as she was leaving.
She was curious to see which girl would marry Fang Chaoyang, unlike herself, who already had grandchildren.
The Laoer family’s two kids, neither married nor betrothed.
Xiao Yang, this nephew of hers, wasn’t in the best of health; even now, working in the fields, he could barely earn eight cents at most.
Their ho was still so dilapidated, and they had to support an old lady and a sister.
Who would want to marry him?
They even said he went out with Elder Zhao and earned so money.
If he had earned money, wouldn’t he have money for a wife?
Even if he had earned so money, when the old lady last went to the county town for dical treatnt, it probably had been all spent.
“Xiao Yang, although your Eldest Aunt Fang had no good intentions when she visited , she did make a valid point: you’re not getting any younger, and it’s ti you found a wife.”
Having them as a burden prevented Xiao Yang from finding a wife until now.
The house was too poor, too rudintary.
Fang Chaoyang did not claim to have money either.
After all, Grandma wouldn’t believe him.
“Grandma, I’m not in a hurry; I heard that the team leader is going to install electricity, and soon our ho will be bright.”
Now that the wheat was planted, Fang Chaoyang knew his own body; he dared not dig ditches in such cold weather.
At most, he could weave baskets and so other small items at ho.
He planned to take them to sell in the county town before the New Year.
Although he had so regrets about not going to Capital City with Da Li and Xiao He to find Third Brother and make money there, he still had quite a bit of money in hand.
“Installing electricity?”
“Does it cost money?”
Fang Chaoyang thought for a mont, “We need to pay for an electric ter box and the expense of wiring into our rooms.”
He was not very clear on the details, but he knew a bit.
Just as Fang Chaoyang said.
Captain Zhao had been running around for half a month, visiting both the county town and other towns.
They could finally install electricity.
The team leader’s office would cover a part of the cost.
Those who wanted electricity had to pay for their electric ter boxes and wiring costs.
Most families had already paid.
But there were still so who were unwilling to pay.
“Installing electricity together now will be half the price; if you decide to install it later, it will cost several tis more. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you….”
