Gu Chengyu returned to the inner room again, drank milk and fell asleep. Since the relatives and neighbors outside had arrived, they wanted to stay for a meal. Since everyone had not left, the chattering became lively again.
Seeing that the business was done, Mrs. Wang was about to go to her daughter's room to rest for a while, waiting for the meal of her in-laws. She took Mrs. He back to the room and said some personal words. She closed the door and went to the Kang in the west wing, "You
This silly girl, I don’t even know how to talk to your mother. Look at how much your father-in-law dotes on the second child. Look at the money spent? You and your son-in-law should be more careful! The last one has given birth to so many children.
There is also a medicine jar in it. I have to go to town every two days to get medicine. How many families can afford to go through such trouble? I am worried about you!" Mrs. Wang started nagging as soon as she sat on the kang.
"Mom, how can you blame me for this? Your son-in-law told me last night not to let me do anything else, otherwise I will divorce you and go home. When I go home, you and your brother and sister-in-law will support me?" The same goes for Mr. He.
She felt depressed for a while because her brother was not living up to his expectations and could not find a decent job. Last time, someone saw him going to a wine shop in town to drink and eat meat. When he had no money, he went home to get some. No one knew what kind of business he was doing.
I rarely visit the Gu family when I have nothing to do. I don't care about her when I come. I always want this or that when I come, and I always support my parents' family. My husband-in-law has some objections.
"You heartless person, they say girls are outgoing and forget about their mother when they get married." Seeing that her daughter was also losing her temper, Mrs. Wang got so angry that she stepped forward and slapped her.
"Mom, I know what you are talking about, but our family is not divided. My mother-in-law is in charge of the house and can't earn a penny. She only cares about the younger ones. The older one will marry a wife in a few years.
My son, the second child is like a medicine jar. I drink medicine so easily that my daughter will give her whatever she wants. Now that it’s all right, here comes another small one. I see that my father-in-law is holding it in his hand for fear of dropping it, and holding it in his mouth for fear of it melting.
Now I can't help but feel biased. I don't know when this day will end!" Seeing that my mother was angry, Mr. He immediately changed the subject.
"Hey! I shouldn't have promised you to his family in the first place. This mother-in-law is either kissable or not good enough! I don't know when you can separate the family. If you separate the family, won't you be happier than you are now when you are the master of the family? What's the point?
Are you being taught by your mother-in-law?"
"How can I not know the benefits of dividing the family? But my father-in-law will never agree to it. There are old people at home, how can we separate the family?" Speaking of this, even the He family was worried. Where are the two sons! They will have to live in the future.
After marrying a daughter-in-law, the family house needs to be rebuilt and there is no room for it. With the current situation, how much surplus will the father-in-law have after he is middle school? Also, he is afraid that when the next few are older, the father-in-law will suddenly come to separate the family.
There's really nothing to be gained.
"If we don't separate the family, just wait and work for those little ones! Tell your son-in-law that you still have to think of a way." Mrs. Wang advised her daughter that she couldn't save money if she didn't separate the family. Although she taught her
She hid some private money, but her son-in-law looked unhappy every time he came back. Was it because he didn't have any money on hand? Another thing came to mind.
"I heard that when your brother-in-law was about to give birth a few days ago, a traveling monk came and gave him a piece of jade. What happened? Have you seen that jade? Is it valuable?" Wang was puzzled.
.
Hearing this, Mrs. He immediately became energetic again, "Speaking of this, it's really mysterious. That day my mother-in-law was giving birth to a baby inside, and a monk came and asked for water. My father-in-law asked me to get water and give it to him.
Two wotou, who knew that the monk said that our brother-in-law would have a big future in the future, but I was not there at the time, and his father later learned from me. I forgot what he said, anyway, that’s what he meant. I’ll give it back later.
I bought a piece of jade, saying it was for my brother-in-law, but it turned out that the monk left without drinking any water and without taking it from the nest. I don’t know if it’s true or not. But I showed it to my husband, and he said the jade was not worth anything.
, that’s just a piece of broken jade, only half of it.”
He told his mother about this, and then thought, "Mom, how do you know about this?"
"How do I know? Don't you know that the news has spread throughout the surrounding villages? Who doesn't know that the Gu family has a child who can bring glory to the ancestors? Let me tell you, your mother-in-law is definitely hiring someone to perform in a big show.
What! Think about it, these peasant children are just foraging in the fields, so they can still honor their ancestors. Maybe your mother-in-law has other plans." Mrs. Wang curled her lips, not showing much interest in the worthless jade.
, The daughter is stupid, but the son-in-law is not stupid! If the son-in-law said it is not valuable, then it is probably really not valuable. After saying that, he glanced out the window in the direction of the main room.
"What? What plans does my mother-in-law have?" He was confused.
"My silly daughter, what else can you do to get ahead? Study!" Wang rolled her eyes at her daughter, feeling that she was not as smart as she was.
"Isn't this possible? How dare she think about it? How much money can our family have? One of us needs medicine. How dare she think about that master?" He's eyes widened, feeling incredible.
"What is there that she doesn't dare to think about? What is there that she doesn't dare to think about? That vixen, back then..." Mrs. Wang looked at her daughter and stared at her, and felt that her daughter didn't think about what happened back then.
You know, if you really tell him, Gu Changqing won't be able to spare him.
Mr. He is currently immersed in the matter of sending his brother-in-law to study, and does not care about the last half of Mr. Wang's words. "If she really dares, I will be the first to disagree. Why should Wa'er's father and I do it for
This family has worked so hard, and they just pick up what’s ready-made? Are they still so fussy? They want to drink our blood!"
Just when Mrs. He was extremely excited, Gu Chengyi opened the door and came in. He saw Mrs. Wang outside on the kang, "Mom, where are you? I asked Wa'er's mother to help in the kitchen. Her sister-in-law can't do it alone, so I still
I’m going to entertain guests.”
When Mrs. Wang saw her son-in-law come in, she stopped continuing the topic. This son-in-law was very smart, but he was not as easy to coax as her daughter. Later, she would have to take advantage of her son-in-law's absence to coax her daughter to give her more money. Shan Gen'er was doing business this time.
If you lose money again, you have to make up for it.
"Then you all go quickly! I will lean on the kang for a while. Just call me after dinner." "Mom, I'm going out first." Seeing her husband come in, Mrs. He thought that there were many people today, so if she didn't go and help
Afterwards, the mother-in-law had to check the general ledger. Besides, there were many dishes today, so the kitchen must be delicious. She got up in a hurry and followed the baby's father out.
Gu Chengyi had already seen his mother-in-law and his mother-in-law entering the room. How could the mother-in-law not go home without searching for something? His mother-in-law seemed to be a shrewd person, but she was also a fool internally. His brother-in-law said he wanted to do business, so why didn't he say so?
Losing money? Who knows where the money went? Every time I lost money, the mother-in-law would come to see my daughter, and when she came, she would eat and ask for money. Thinking of this, I looked at my daughter-in-law warningly, hoping that she would not be stupid again.
