Yuanshi didn't know what this meant, and rubbed his hands and said, "Mom, eight taels of silver are too much. Who has so much money to marry a wife? I saved some of it, but only one or two taels of silver are all secretly crushed by my second brother when he had time to go to the mountains to buy wild game and sell it for money. The more he had to be confiscated. After saving for so many years, it was just that little."

Yuan's wife began to wipe her tears, "Chunhua, our old Yuan family is pointing at you. You are married well. Your sister is having difficulty eating. She is often beaten by men. Her nose is not a nose, her eyes are not an eye, and she can't count on it. At that time, when she told the old Xu family that she was married, the matchmaker said that she liked your sister. I specially arranged for you to marry her first and live a good life. The old Xu family is well-off, your man loves you, and the children are obedient. But which mother-in-law often tries to you, but which mother-in-law doesn't mess with you? I'm looking for such a good life for you. You can't forget the root cause. Your eldest nephew is the first among our grandsons of the old Yuan family. At the age of eighteen, you can't even say a daughter-in-law. Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Mom, I know. I always remember my mother's good things. I have always taken care of my eldest nephew's affairs in my heart. Last time I promised you that I can help you think of a solution for my eldest nephew's wedding betrothal gift. But, this is really too much for eight taels of silver. If there are three or four taels of silver, I ask my head to think of a way. Maybe I can get it. Eight taels of silver is really not enough..." Yuan said anxiously.

Mrs. Yuan stopped wiping her tears and looked at her with bright eyes, "Then tell me the truth, how many do you have in total now?"

Yuanshi opened the box at the corner of the kang and pulled the bottom layer by layer.

Finally, I took out a small bag of money, all of which were broken copper coins, and a large handful of them.

"It's really just over a thousand articles. Mom, I've saved it all by one article. Please count..."

After a quick scan, Mrs. Yuan found that it was full of money and not even a piece of silver.

More than a thousand citations are just one or two taels of silver.

A trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes, "What should I do? I want eight taels! Chunhua, think of another way. You should be a aunt in your eldest nephew's marriage."

"But, there's really that much. After a few days of free time, I'll ask the head to go up the mountain to hunt and try my luck."

Seeing that Yuan Shi still didn't let go, he couldn't wait, "Chunhua, isn't your family selling loquat paste and loquat sprinkles in the town now? Your mother-in-law sold a few hundred yuan in the town yesterday. It is said that there are still people who sell it to the county town. What can you do if you make money like this? Chunhua, your nephew is eighteen years old, so I can't wait anymore. Waiting for the old girl of your Xu family first, it's time. Now you have finally had a suitable good girl. You can't just let go!"

Yuanshi explained, "Mom, loquat paste is made by my sister herself, and it has nothing to do with us. When the money is sold, my mother-in-law saved it for her as a dowry, and she is not even worthy of the husband's family. She really has no share of us. However, my sister said that she would give us the salary every day. At that time, the loquat paste business will end. We will see if we can share some wages or something. I will probably not be much. We will send it to you at that time. Mom, consider my situation. Even if you force me to death, I really can't afford eight silver."

A coughing sound was heard over there.

This is because the mother and daughter have too much time to talk.

Yuan Madam didn't dare to say more and threw a sentence, "You are a piece of meat that fell from my mother's body. How could I not understand you? Otherwise, my mother would let you come to Lao Xu's house to live a good life? However, your eldest nephew is the root of Lao Yuan's family. As a eldest aunt, you can't take out eight liang, and you must not lose five liang. I will go to your sister's side to think of a way. If you marry well, you will have to make a big fortune anyway. Can you agree?" She acted like if you didn't agree, and she wouldn't leave here today.

The thin and thin woman who bent over and carried her back looked fierce and pitiful.

The coughing sound outside was getting more and more frequent. Yuan gritted his teeth and agreed.

"I try my best, mom."

"That's good, I'll go back first."

***

Xu Jiaojiao drank a cup of loquat dew on the bed, and the sweet and sour taste diluted her sleepiness.

I saw Xu Zhang standing at the window and coughing hard.

"Mom, you feel uncomfortable in your throat. You can also drink some loquat dew to keep it effective."

Xu Zhang kept staring at the outside of the window, the side of the second room where the second room was located, "If you don't drink, my mother's voice is very good. Why is this waste? I just can't see that Yuan's wife. There is nothing good about it when I come to the door. Look, she won't leave if she doesn't take anything back."

Xu Jiaojiao chuckled, "Mom, there is nothing to talk to the mother and daughter, and there is no rule for not letting the in-laws come to see their daughter. Mom, okay, are you tired? Otherwise, take a break, I spent so much time with me last night. I got up early this morning and I got up again, so don't get tired of my health."

In an attempt to bring back Xu Zhang's attention.

Xu Zhang is tall, has a large skeleton and is thin, but he has a spirit of spirit, which is more full than that of an adult man.

She is very interested in the care of her old daughter.

The deep lines on the corners of his mouth couldn't help but relax a little, "Mom is fine, she is in good health. Back then, when she was pregnant with you, she could still do work. She cut corn and turned the ground, and she was no slower than the young wives. She was not as precious as you. If you have a good rest, she would be happy."

Looking back, seeing that there was still no movement in the room, Xu Zhang coughed twice impatiently.

"There are so many things at home, and the fruits are piled up in the mountains. Yuanshi is so good. She hid in the house and hid until now. She still doesn't come out. She won't come out again. She won't kick the door and see what shameful things they are doing!"

As he said that, he was about to walk outside the house. Xu Jiaojiao quickly got up from the bed and grabbed Xu Zhang.

"Mom, don't, don't..."

Xu Zhang scolded, "That old guy probably depends on our family selling fruits these two days and want to come to the house to fight Qiufeng. Let me tell you, Jiaojiao, what kind of good family is their Lao Yuan family? They are just a dilapidated man, and they give all men to their ancestors. Women are cows and horses to support men, and even their married daughters are not spared. Look at the old guy's waist, back, and what they carry... they are all made by herself. In the family, men go to the ground. She gives men to the ground and plow the land by herself. In her early years, she pulls the plow and plow the land like a cow and horse. When she pulls it, she pulls her waist and back into that way! It's all worth it!"

Just as they were cursing, the door was opened in the wing room, and Yuan and Mrs. Yuan came out.
