Wang Erbing expressed his confusion. "Mom, given our family's financial situation, you don't think we can be picky, do you? As long as a person's moral character is good, what else is there to be picky about?"

"Am I being picky?"

"Isn't it?"

“…”

The mother and son parted on bad terms.

In the afternoon, Xie Ailian was strongly dissatisfied with the affair between Wang Erbing and Chen Meiru, and the whole village knew about it.

Chen Meiru went to Wang Erbing to ask about the situation. Wang Erbing explained and asked her if she knew that Niu Dahahua had come to propose marriage to his brother.

"I know." Chen Meiru answered truthfully and asked him, "What do you think about this?"

"...I don't think so. Don't you and my elder brother have a crush on each other?"

"Yes! But your mother doesn't agree."

"Does your mother agree?"

"My mother can't be my master now."

“…”

Having said that, I still have to ask.

So, Chen Meiru found an opportunity and asked Shi Guixiang.

Shi Guixiang gritted her teeth and said, "If I don't agree, will I keep you at home as an old maid and support you?"

"I haven't eaten anything for free these years. I earned work points." Chen Meiru also had a bad face.

"That means you won't be able to get married, and people will laugh at you. It will also affect your brother's marriage."

"Who can I blame?"

In the past two years, the mother and daughter have been at loggerheads and can't talk to each other properly.

However, the main reason why Chen Meiru became the "old maid" in the village was because she was angry with Shi Guixiang.

As long as Shi Guixiang thinks it is good, she will not agree to it.

One of the reasons for looking for Wang Erbing was that he felt Shi Guixiang would definitely be laughed at.

They despised her for being poor and made her marry a fool. After they had only seen each other and hadn't even settled down, they forced her to work and curry favor with him, making her suffer the cold shoulder, being laughed at and looked down upon...

Anyway, she will marry anyone, at least Wang Erbing is not a bad person.

"Where's the betrothal gift?" Chen Meiru was about to leave angrily but turned back.

"How much do they afford as a betrothal gift..."

"That's perfect. I'll take whatever gift money you ask for."

Upon hearing this, Shi Guixiang spat out a mouthful of blood. What an ungrateful person!

"Don't even think about it! I raised you up and I didn't even accept any betrothal gifts. Am I really raising a money-loser?" At most I'll ask for less betrothal gifts, but you can take it all away? No way!

In the surrounding area, the average betrothal gift is about ten yuan, and the mother and daughter "friendly negotiated" and came up with six yuan.

Shi Guixiang kept calling her a "money-loser" and a "ungrateful person", but she couldn't really beat her to death.

It's like the plague god is sending it away.

Although Shi Guixiang is in charge at home, her daughter-in-law is not easy to deal with, and she has a young son who has not yet been married.

He only paid six yuan for the betrothal gift and married a man with no mental illness or physical defects, which shocked all the women and old ladies in the village.

Xie Ailian was not only disgusted, but also suffocated. The development of the matter was simply inexplicable. However, the six-yuan betrothal gift made her feel a little delicately balanced.

At least, I don’t have to borrow money from anyone to marry her.

The second son’s marriage has been settled, and the next one is the third son. As for the fourth son, it’s still early.

At the end of the following year, Wang Dahai's family welcomed double happiness.

First, the third brother’s marriage was arranged.

Then the eldest daughter-in-law, He Ximei, gave birth to another son.

At the beginning of the next spring, there were many happy events. First, Chen Meiru became pregnant, then the third daughter-in-law Shi Haiyan also became pregnant, and the second daughter Wang Erju also got married.

During this period, Xie Ailian walked with a breeze.

Perfect performance, full of pride.

With only the fourth child left, the old couple’s mission is accomplished.

However, the fourth child is only in his teens, so there is still a long way to go.
