Li Dong suddenly became nervous. He was not very favored in the first place. If this incident affected his already precarious position in front of his parents, it would be more of a loss than a gain.
More importantly, he was originally unwilling to talk about this matter in front of his family. It was all the fault of that ugly woman.
He thought what Yuan Hong'er said just now made sense, but now it seemed that it was all bullshit. He couldn't believe what that stinky bitch said!
"Mom and Dad, that's not the case, I..."
He originally blamed Yuan Hong'er for his mistakes, but before he could speak, his two brothers rushed to say, "Dongzi, don't you know the situation in your wife's brother-in-law's house? We saw a lot of it back then.
What a joke. What kind of money can he make now? It’s because he is afraid of poverty and has never seen money, so he makes such a joke!"
"Yes, if you can use fertile land to grow other things, that's something only fools who are tired of living will do! Those fools from your wife's family want to follow suit, so let them do it, and we'll wait and see the joke.
That’s it.”
"Dongzi, among our brothers, you are the most stupid. It doesn't matter if you are stupid, but you still need to understand some of the most basic principles. Don't listen to others who say that wind is like rain. If this thing can really make money
, why would they be so kind to take our family with them?"
…
The two brothers each said something that made Li Dong feel ashamed. He quickly said: "Big brother and second brother, I understand this truth. I don't want to do it. I just wanted to accompany my wife back to my parents' home today. I heard something new and said
Just for everyone’s enjoyment!”
"It better be this way!"
Old Man Li snorted coldly, his face full of dissatisfaction with his son. How could he still be so stupid at his age?
"Dad, don't worry. I asked a few more questions and found out that Zhao Dagui actually wanted to make money from us. I scolded him and called him shameless! It was about land and money. I
I will definitely not make a decision so easily, so I have already rejected it, but my silly bitch has been deceived so much that she still wants to open up wasteland and grow medicinal materials."
In order not to be scolded by his family, he directly brought the topic to Yuan Hong'er. Old Man Li was even more displeased with the third daughter-in-law, and his disgust was written directly on his face.
"Your wife is really hopeless. Why did you marry such a thing in the first place? It doesn't matter if she can't give birth to a son. She is also very stupid. This kind of person is afraid that even if she does give birth to a son, she will still be a fool.
!I told you not to marry such a woman back home, but you refused to listen. Look at what your life is like now."
Speaking of Yuan Hong'er, Old Man Li would talk about her inability to give birth to a son. Li Dong usually didn't like hearing this kind of thing, but now in order to draw the flames of war to his wife, he even helped.
"Dad, you don't know that I have regretted it all these years. If I had listened to you and married another girl, maybe my son would be able to help work in the fields now, unlike those two girls who have nothing to do.
strength."
Li Dong didn't feel guilty at all when he said this now. Even the eldest and second son of the Li family looked at him in surprise, holding back a smile, feeling that their younger brother was really a fool.
But Old Man Li was very satisfied with his performance, nodded, and continued: "Now that you know you regret it, you must learn a lesson in the future. We are all your family, can we harm you?"
Li Dong nodded repeatedly and said that he understood.
The Li family didn't care about him and continued talking about the topic just now.
Mr. Li's eldest son is sixteen years old this year, and he's old enough to propose marriage. However, he looked at several houses and found no suitable ones. Either they disliked his family for being poor, or they disliked his family for being poor. The Li family is really
Somewhat worried.
"Dad, we can't delay the marriage of my family's Daqiang any longer. He will be getting older in a flash, and by then all the good girls will be taken away by other families. What will happen to our family's Daqiang?"
"Tell me, why is it so difficult to get a wife nowadays? The bride price is five taels of silver. Isn't this to rob someone?"
"Five taels of silver is enough for a year's rations for a big family like ours. If we just use it as a betrothal gift, then won't we have to suffer from the northwest wind this year? We can't give up our whole family just to find a wife.
Starve to death?"
"Yeah, besides, the girl from the Lin family isn't necessarily that good, so we don't have to do it with her!"
"Now, except for the girl from the Lin family, Daqiang doesn't look down on girls from other families! The girl from the Lin family is good-looking, and she can do embroidery well. When she gets married, she can make some embroidery and take it to the street.
Selling it up will be good for our family when the time comes."
…
There was a heated discussion between the eldest and second family members. The eldest brother and the second family all fell in love with the girl from the Lin family. The conditions of the Lin family were much better than theirs, and they also loved the girl very much. Although they asked for a lot of betrothal gifts, they also gave a lot of dowry.
, in this comparison, there is actually no loss at all, and you can even make a fortune.
However, this good thing that makes a fortune can only be from Dafang. After all, she is Dafang's daughter-in-law. In the Li family's view, the dowry of a grandson's daughter-in-law is generally not confiscated, even if she brings a lot of dowry.
It is only used by Da Qiang and his wife, and has nothing to do with the second and third bedrooms.
The people in the third house have no right to speak up and fight for themselves, but the people in the second house are different. The couple in the second house are not stupid, and they have three sons. The second wife’s status is quite high in the family, so when she encounters this
If something is unfair, you have to stand up and fight for it.
The Li family has not been divided yet, and now all the money of the whole family is in the hands of Mrs. Li. It is estimated that it is only three or four taels, not even five taels. If the betrothal gift money is really five taels, maybe it will be paid.
Borrow one or two taels from outside.
When the time comes, the eldest son will earn money from his daughter-in-law’s dowry, but the other families will have to help the eldest son pay off his debts and even go hungry. Why?
Seeing that the second room and the second room were about to quarrel, Mr. and Mrs. Lu were also anxious. Logically speaking, the matter of their grandson getting married was no longer their responsibility, and the parents should be left to worry about their children.
But the family is not divided, and each household does not have much money. It is not enough to marry a daughter-in-law.
The most important point is that the eldest grandson's marriage really can't be delayed any longer. If it continues to be delayed, he won't be able to find a good family.
Li Dong saw everyone arguing like this, something suddenly flashed through his mind, and he took the initiative to interrupt everyone, saying: "I think the second sister-in-law is right, that girl from the Lin family is not necessarily that good, and the bride price is too expensive, why?"
It's not even cost-effective. I do know a nice girl who is good-looking and has a lot of skills. She can make money much faster than we imagined. If we can marry that girl into our family, I guess we won't have to work in the fields.
