When Shi Jiang heard Sister-in-law Shi's question, he rolled his eyelids and sneered at her.
"How do I know if it tastes good or not? Anyway, I don't get to share the food! It's not me who eats it anyway. I don't care whether it tastes good or not. It has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, he directly picked up the hoe that he had just held when he entered the kitchen, turned around and walked out.
"Hey...why are you like this? If you don't want to do it, you should have said it earlier!"
Shi Er's sister-in-law was furious, but there was nothing she could do about Shi Jiang.
I can only hope that the brown rice porridge cooked like this will be delicious.
...it tastes as good as shit.
Shi Laosan picked up the bowl of brown rice porridge served by Sister-in-law Shi. As soon as he took it into his mouth, he spat out the mouthful of brown rice porridge with a pop.
"Second sister-in-law, what the hell are you making? Is it for people to eat? Why does it smell like sour water when I drink it?"
After Shi Laosan finished squirting, he angrily threw the bowl in his hand on the table, stood up, and angrily questioned Shi Ersao.
Mrs. Shi also took a small sip of the rice porridge, spit out the rice porridge she had just eaten and spat it out to the side. Together with Shi Laosan, they stared at the second sister-in-law Shi.
"Zhang Zhaodi, what did you do? Didn't you let Shi Jiang do it? Why didn't you let her do it?"
The second sister-in-law, Zhang Zhaodi, had a face full of grievances.
"Mom, Third Uncle, this is what Shi Jiang made! She said it was not for her to eat anyway, and she didn't care if it tasted good or not. She just poured the ladle of brown rice and pickle dumplings into the pot and cooked it in one pot.
I didn’t know it would taste so bad!”
"Prodigal thing, your mother said yesterday, how did you do it yesterday?"
When the old man looked at the wasted food in front of him, black smoke almost appeared on his face that was originally black with anger.
After taking two puffs of dry cigarette, he pointed at Shi Laosan and asked.
Originally, he didn't want to get too involved in the marriage of his granddaughters. After all, in this kind of matter, it would be enough for the old lady to come forward, and it was not his turn as the head of the family to say anything.
Now, Shi Jiang did such a waste of food today. As the head of the family, he could not tolerate such a wasteful thing to stay at home and an eyesore.
After Shi Laosan took some money from his mother's hand last night, he ran to Xu Laowu's house, called a group of people, and gambled all night. He had no time to talk to Xu Laowu.
Of course, what my mother asked me to do was not done.
But how could Shi Laosan dare to tell the truth to his own father and mother like this, so he could only reply hesitantly.
"You also know that Shi Jiang doesn't even want the sick son of the Xiao family, not to mention that Xu Laowu has an eldest brother who is a worker in the county! But don't worry, I will definitely be able to convince him to marry him willingly.
Shi Jiang. It’s just that I don’t have half a dime on me. Even if I want to have a relationship with the other party, I can’t."
Speaking of this, Shi Laosan rubbed his fingers at Mrs. Shi and Mr. Shi.
The old man looked at it, took another puff of dry cigarette, and then asked the old woman to take the money with a sullen face.
In front of the other two sons and Old Man Shi, the old lady couldn't find out that the third son had taken two dollars from her yesterday, so she could only give the third son Shi a hard look, and then
He took off a bunch of keys from his waistband and went back to the main house to get a dollar.
"Mom, what can you do with such a small amount of money?"
Shi Laosan only gave him such a dollar when he saw his own mother, and he immediately refused.
"If you love me, don't let me down. It just allows me to save money."
This time, Mrs. Shi didn't follow Shi Laosan's example. She stretched out her hand directly to take back the dollar she had just put on the table.
When he saw the old lady Shi actually reaching out for the money, Shi Laosan immediately grabbed the dollar on the table with his hands and feet.
But he muttered: "Forget it, just one piece, I'll go and ask again tonight."
The old lady rolled her eyes at him and said angrily.
"I'm telling you, this is the last time. If it works, that's fine. If it doesn't, let's make other plans earlier."
The old lady Shi was very open-minded. If she couldn't marry into the Xiao family and get a generous betrothal gift, she would marry Xu Laowu. She would take the opportunity to get a relative who was a migrant worker in the city, and then she could get some benefits.
If Xu Laowu couldn't do it, it would be as simple as marrying Shi Jiang to someone willing to pay a high price early. If she couldn't find one in her village, she wouldn't believe it, and she wouldn't believe it if she couldn't find someone in the neighboring village who could give such a generous gift.
As for whether they are good or not, that is not something she should worry about.
However, it was obvious that Shi Laosan finally took it to heart because of what Mrs. Shi said.
After work, Shi Laosan didn't even return home. He went directly to Xu Laowu and told him about marrying Shi Jiang to him.
"Shi Laosan, are you not drunk? Are you serious about marrying your eldest daughter to me?"
Xu Laowu touched the area where he had diarrhea, and when he thought of Shi Jiang's shriveled washboard figure, he felt a little disgusted.
How can this be considered a woman?
When it comes to women, you have to be like the poor widow in the village, with fronts and backs, big where it should be and small where it should be, that is a real woman.
"Hey, of course it's true. No matter how good my daughter is, she's still a young lady, isn't she?"
When Shi Lao San saw Xu Lao Wu's disgusting tone, he immediately said anxiously.
When Xu Laowu heard this, his expression paused slightly.
Shi Laosan seems to be right, at least that girl Shi Jiang is still a young girl.
"Shi Laosan, if others don't know you, how can I not know you? Tell me, how much do you want to sell your daughter for?"
I have to say that Xu Laowu knows very well what kind of person Shi Laosan is."
When Shi Laosan heard what Xu Laowu said, he didn't mind. He sniffed and whispered.
"As long as your family gives you one hundred yuan, my daughter will become a member of your Xu family."
"Bah, Shi Laosan, are you trying to rob her? That girl of yours is worth a hundred yuan without any trouble. Do you want a hundred yuan of ghost coins?"
After saying that, Xu Laowu spat at Shi Laosan's feet with a look of disgust on his face.
This attitude almost made Shi Laosan so angry that he jumped off his feet.
But although Xu Laowu was thin, he was much bigger than Shi Laosan.
Shi Laosan pressed the air into his stomach and said unhappily.
"You don't have to say that. If a hundred doesn't work, just give me the number. You can't let me give you a good daughter for nothing, right?"
Xu Laowu glanced up and down at Shi Laosan, then changed his mind and stretched out a hand.
"Fifty, at most fifty, love or not."
Shi Laosan stared at Xu Laowu's hand, gritted his teeth, nodded and agreed.
"Okay, fifty is fifty, but the money must be given first. As soon as you get the money, you can take the person with you."
Hearing what Shi Laosan said, Xu Laowu was immediately happy.
"Okay, I will go to the county town to get the money from my elder brother tomorrow. This matter is settled like that!"
