Reborn as a Landlord-Chapter 597 - 307 Decision_2

Lady Zhang said this and pushed Lian Shouxin.

Lian Shouxin felt helpless; this was the so-called ’being caught between a rock and a hard place.’ It was because Lady Zhang had previously been endlessly tolerant that he hadn’t tasted this situation earlier.

"Her mother was indeed excessive today," Lian Shouxin straightened his attitude and said, "Let’s try to keep our distance in the future. After autumn, we can build a house behind and move out to live there."

Lady Zhou was unreasonable and had no consideration for others’ feelings. Lady Zhang only complained in front of him, but when facing Lady Zhou, she showed no disrespect, and afterward, she still sent the best dishes to Lady Zhou. Her actions left no room for anyone to find fault.

In comparison, Lian Shouxin’s heart entirely leaned towards his wife and children.

Tenant farmers generally have a deep love for their hometown, land, and family, so moving is a significant matter for them. Lian Shouxin’s decision to move was not an impulsive one; it was just that today’s incident with Lady Zhou had solidified his determination to move.

"Alright, let’s move then," Lady Zhang pondered for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Lian Manman, Lian Zhizhi, Wu Lang, and Xiao Qi naturally had no objections.

Moving would have to wait for the house to be built after autumn; for now, they still had many concerns to attend to.

"Today I got to enjoy some good fortune, all thanks to Manman. With her bustling around inside and out, I and Zhizhi can sit down peacefully to eat," Lady Zhang looked at Lian Manman with a smile and continued, "Jiaxing’s mother and Matchmaker Wang kept praising our Manman. Matchmaker Wang even wanted to ask me for Manman’s birth details..."

At this point, Lady Zhang couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Lian Zhizhi had just secured a good marriage proposal, and the much younger Lian Manman was already being considered; how could she as a mother not be happy?

"Mom, you didn’t give it to her, did you?" Lian Manman was startled. She was still young and didn’t want to be betrothed and married off so soon. "Mom, I’m still young; you can’t bear to send me off to another family so early."

"No, I didn’t give it," Lady Zhang saw Lian Manman’s anxiousness and laughed, "I also said that our Manman is still young; there’s no rush for this matter."

"That’s right," Lian Manman secretly wiped the sweat from her brow. After all, she had exerted herself today all for the sake of Lian Zhizhi.

"Manman, I’ll make you another pair of new shoes. What pattern do you want?" Lian Zhizhi asked Lian Manman in a soft voice.

"Just one pair? I want two pairs," Lian Manman immediately said.

"Okay, two pairs it is," Lian Zhizhi laughed.

While the family was chatting happily, Lian Yeye hurriedly came in from outside.

"Uncle, Auntie, there’s a fight happening at our place," Lian Yeye said to Lian Shouxin and Lady Zhang.

"What? What happened?" Lian Shouxin immediately sat upright and asked.

Lian Manman called Lian Yeye to her side to tell the story slowly.

"... Grandpa and Grandma have started fighting," Lian Yeye said.

Only through Lian Yeye’s words did everyone learn that Old Master Lian had returned home, took a short nap, and upon waking up, had immediately started quarreling with Lady Zhou, naturally, over the way Lady Zhou had given Lian Zhizhi a hard time.

"My Grandpa started by scolding her a few times. Grandma, whether out of guilt or something else, didn’t say a word at first. Grandpa had drunk quite a bit, so as he kept on scolding, things got more intense. Grandma wouldn’t have it anymore and started shouting back. They were still at it when I left. If not for people holding them back, they might’ve come to blows," Lian Yeye narrated.

Lian Shouxin looked at Lady Zhang, and from his expression, it was clear he was still worried about Old Master Lian and Lady Zhou.

"Dad, Mom, you two shouldn’t go back. If you do, it’ll just be to get yelled at; Grandma will definitely drag you two into it. How about this, I’ll go back and have a look," Lian Manman said, "Mom, didn’t you say you needed to send some food to my second and third uncles since they couldn’t get off work in the mountains and missed the meal? I’ll take it over now... and if I can, I’ll try to calm things down a bit."

"Alright then," Lady Zhang portioned out almost half a basin of leftover dishes, and Lian Manman, carrying it, headed towards the old house with Lian Yeye.

Arguments were common in the Lian Family, but today was a special day, and with Old Master Lian and Lady Zhou’s particularly fierce quarrel, it had attracted a group of children looking for entertainment and two idle daughters-in-law at the Lian Family’s front gate.

"Oh, Manman, are you bringing some dishes over?" The two daughters-in-law saw Lian Manman carrying the dishes and greeted her with a smile, "Those are some fine dishes."

"At noon, we had food for my sister’s engagement but my second and third uncles couldn’t get off work from the mountains and missed it. I’m delivering some over for them to have tonight," Lian Manman replied with a smile, "Spring Life Sister-in-law, Da Li Sister-in-law, since you’re free, why don’t you come in and sit for a while?"

"No, we’ve got some things to do, just passing by, passing by," the two daughters-in-law hurried off with embarrassed smiles.

Lian Manman then glared at the children, who scattered in all directions.

Lian Manman and Lian Yeye walked into the yard; from the front gate, they could already hear Old Master Lian and Lady Zhou’s voices, which became clearer as they approached the courtyard.

Upon entering the Upper Room, Lady Chiang came forward and took the basin from Lian Manman’s hands.

The door curtain to the eastern room was hanging, and from the doorway, Old Master Lian and Lady Zhou could be seen sitting on the kang bed, each occupying one side, locked in a shouting match.

"You, at your advanced age, are living a worthless life... What you did today, it was utterly inhumane," Old Master Lian pointed at Lady Zhou and scolded.
