Chapter 90 The temptation of twenty taels of silver
When Bai Banxia and the others returned home, they talked about meeting the elder brother and elder sister-in-law.
"That Zheng Yin's wife is actually the cousin of Da Lang's wife?" Bai Tian was surprised. He didn't know it before.
Bai Banxia nodded and said to the eldest uncle: "Brother Dalang has gained a little weight and said that they are all very good. It will take ten and a half days to come back."
Ms. Li was happy to hear this, "Okay, I have to thank you too, auntie."
"Doctors should treat illnesses and save lives." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
The old man listened curiously and asked about the situation in detail. Bai Banxia answered everything one by one. The old man couldn't help but nod his head and praised his granddaughter for growing up and being capable and doing great things.
"My dear, my daughter-in-law's natal village is very protective. If you bully her, they will come knocking on your door." The old lady said sourly.
"The elder man's wife is hard-working and capable. How can I bully her before I even like her?" Ms. Li said with a smile.
The old lady snorted, "The old man is almost a son-in-law, so I don't know what to be happy about."
What he said was that he was unhappy that Brother Dalang didn’t come home yet.
Bai Banxia took out two cents, walked over and put it in her hand, "Don't you, old lady, miss us these past two days? Come on, I'll buy you candies."
"Huh, I'm saving up to buy some cloth to make new clothes." The old lady looked disgusted, but she still put the coins in her arms.
After returning from the hall, Bai Tian took his daughter and asked in a low voice: "My daughter, why do you give her milk money to buy candies every day? Don't eat her teeth and get cavities."
"Isn't it just a way of saying, can she really buy candies every day?" Bai Banxia pursed her lips and snickered, "Give her some money. If she is in a good mood, she will stop nagging us. Besides, I can't even give her two taels of silver.
Is it to teach her a lesson, why not pay her back?"
"Hey, my daughter, you always say that I have high emotional intelligence. I don't know what emotional intelligence is, but now I think you have high emotional intelligence. How many days can you give her two cents a day and two taels of silver? How many days can you coax her?
I’m so happy and it’s such a good deal!” Bai Tian praised with a smile.
After the father and daughter finished talking, Bai Banxia went to the kitchen to help. The aunt seemed to have something to ask, but she was a little hesitant.
"Auntie, are you worried about Brother Dalang and the others?" Bai Banxia pondered over the old lady's "son-in-law at home" statement, which made her feel uncomfortable.
"Do you think your sister-in-law is pregnant?" Ms. Li asked.
Bai Banxia couldn't help but laugh, "Auntie, you think of me as a god. In that case, we met in a hurry and didn't feel your pulse. How could I tell it at a glance?"
Mrs. Li herself laughed, "Yes, I just want to hold a grandson."
"Children are fate, don't be impatient. Brother Dalang and sister-in-law are both in good health and should be here soon." Bai Banxia consoled her.
Li nodded, "That's good, that's good."
Then Bai Banxia asked about the situation in the village, and Li spoke in a low voice.
"On the day you left, the village chief called a few people to go up the mountain with bamboo crossbows to look for them. They didn't find Liu Da's body, but found his torn clothes. It must be more serious than anything. The village chief took Liu Da's body
When the clothes were sent to the Liu family, the Liu family's mother-in-law cried and scolded Xiaocao, and Liu San also threatened to commit suicide, saying that it was all his fault."
Li said and sighed, "Wolves have been making trouble again in the past two days. Your crossbow really played a big role. The wolves did not dare to approach. They howled for most of the night. It was very scary. Xiaocao was not even in the village.
If the wolf comes to cause trouble at night, it can't be blamed on her."
Bai Banxia nodded, this is the effect he wanted.
At the same time, in the Liu family hall, Mrs. Liu started crying and making trouble again.
"I heard that the Sangmenxing is back again. I'm going to strangle her to death. She was the one who killed my boss. How can I live?"
The eldest daughter-in-law of Liu was crying and pulling her to persuade her. The eldest daughter-in-law of Liu also felt uncomfortable. She became a widow in an instant and her child was still young. What would she do in the future?
Suddenly, the sound of bowls being thrown was heard in the room.
"Shut up!" Liu San shouted loudly, turning over and almost rolling off the bed.
His movement pressed the wound, and blood seeped out from his trouser leg. His wife rushed to help him, but he struggled and jumped to the main room on one leg.
"Have you done enough?" He yelled with red eyes, "You blame Xiaocao for your second brother's death. You have scolded me every day for these years. We saw that dad left early and we all wanted to honor you, so we will let you go.
Went. But look what result you made? If you hadn't forced us to throw the grass up the mountain, would my eldest brother and I have met the wolf?"
"I'm your mother, how could you say that?" Mrs. Liu's mother-in-law shouted in disbelief.
Mrs. Liu finally couldn't help it anymore and let go of her hand, "This family is about to break up. If you do it again, no one will support you in old age. Let's see what your grandson will say about you!"
Liu San struggled to straighten his back, "Although I am lame, there are no other men in the family. I will work hard to support this family in the future, but you should stop trying to make the decision in this family. If you do again, don't blame us for not staying."
feelings."
The houses in the village were not well insulated, and the quarrel between the Liu family spread quickly. Ma Xiaoyu was so excited that she ran to the Bai family to tell Bai Banxia about it.
"Liu San finally woke up. Filial piety is a must, but you can't be foolishly filial, otherwise the Liu family will really be wiped out." Bai Banxia said with emotion.
"Humph, fortunately Liu San is not confused. My grandma is quite confused when I look at her, and my father is also confused." Ma Xiaoyu said angrily.
Bai Banxia held her hand distressedly and applied some hand cream she had just made on the back of her chapped hands.
"What happened to your family?" she asked.
"Do you know what my grandma said? She actually said that the people in our village should not drive away Matchmaker Wang. If you don't want to marry, there will be someone else. It would be great to give my family such a big thing like twenty taels of silver, as long as Wang Han sees it well.
Me." Ma Xiaoyu stomped her feet angrily, "My father actually agreed and said that the village elder was confused. I even wanted to learn from the village elder."
Bai Banxia's heart skipped a beat. She was afraid that Ma Xiaoyu's family would sell Ma Xiaoyu. She didn't expect that the twenty taels of silver that Matchmaker Wang said would make the Ma family tempted. Fortunately, Matchmaker Wang was beaten by her and she didn't dare to come.
Moreover, the village chief also issued a message, calling for beatings once and for all, and asking the villagers to beat Matchmaker Wang out when they see her.
"Keep an eye on the situation at home. If they really get engaged for you, don't object yet. Just pretend you don't know and come to discuss it with me when you find an opportunity." She was afraid that if Ma Xiaoyu made a fuss, Ma Xiaoyu would be in trouble.
The family locked her up.
She has been keeping an eye on Ma Xiaoyu lately, and must not let the Ma family sell Ma Xiaoyu.
The two chatted for a while, and Ma Xiaoyu said it was time to go home and work. Bai Banxia also went to Zhao's house to give Zhao Changsheng's daughter-in-law a follow-up consultation.
"Here's Banxia, we were just looking for you." Mrs. Zhao smiled happily and came up to her as soon as she saw her.
"What's the matter?" Bai Banxia asked.
Mrs. Zhao pulled her and said, "It's about my grandson."
