If someone asked Mrs. Meng which was easier, going to heaven or asking her daughters-in-law for a penny, she would definitely choose the former without hesitation.

All sons are enemies. When they grow up, they will be raised by others. This is the most profound feeling that Meng had after the family split up.

It's a pity that she didn't give birth to a daughter. Fortunately, when she was young, she was very proud of herself, thinking that she would have a boy all her life, and a boy again and again! At that time, she would walk out with her back straight.

stupid!

Now she thinks she was really stupid!

What's the use of having a son? They're all the kind of people who forget their mothers after marrying a wife! This wife isn't even married yet, but he's already getting mad at her for a few bucks, glaring at her like he wants to eat her.

Meng became even angrier and refused to take the money!

Who knew if Lao Liu had ever handed over all the reward money he'd been saving behind her back for the past few years? She'd only tried to trick him that day, but she'd managed to get twenty taels of silver! He'd said it was an advance on his wages, but she hadn't been watching him. Whether it was an advance or just some secret savings, only Lao Liu knew.

Rolling her eyes, Meng said sternly, "I don't have any money! I have two lives, but take mine and your father's!"

"father!"

Lao Liu looked at Lao Dingtou with resentment.

Meng's neck shrank, but the next second she heard Old Ding say, "Even Dad can't conjure up money, your mother has the final say." She raised her head again. She was the finance minister of this family. Although there were only three of them in the family, with Old Ding's support, she won with an absolute advantage of two votes!

"You can't kiss me like that!" Lao Liu couldn't bear it anymore, he took off the big red flower on his chest and threw it to the ground.

"I was scared to death. If you didn't get married, your father and I would be so worried that we couldn't even eat." Meng stretched her legs and straightened her chest.

"Am I really my parents' biological child? Why do you treat me so badly? Of the six of my brothers, only I have to pay for my brides, and now when it comes to the wedding, you refuse to give back the money you spent. What's the reason for this? Huh?"

After the sixth brother's roar, the eldest brother and several people from the clan who came to welcome the bride rushed in and asked what happened. Some said to call the head of the village, and some said to call the clan leader. When Meng heard this, she immediately used her trump card and beat her chest and stamped her feet and howled.

He cursed the sixth brother for not even marrying his wife yet, and he couldn't wait to force his mother to death.

The sixth brother was anxious. What Meng said would ruin Tian Xiaoyu's reputation. If it got out, people would not say anything bad about her, nor would they say anything bad about him, the sixth brother. They would only say something bad about Xiaoyu, saying that she had caused unrest in her husband's family before she even got married.

It would be fine if he didn't marry her, but how will such an innocent girl get married in the future after her mother made such a fuss?

Lao Liu stamped his foot and said, "There's no need to cry or make a fuss. Since you two elders don't treat me as their son, I'm going to find the village head to be a witness. From now on, I'll sever my ties with you two elders and let each of us live in peace!"

He turned around and tried to find the village head, but Fang held him back. "You can break off the engagement any day, but not today. If you break off the engagement today, you'll only solidify the girl's reputation. You're pushing her into a desperate situation!"

With difficulties everywhere, Lao Liu squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and started howling at the top of his lungs.

Howling louder than his mother!

"Mom, Sixth Uncle is crying." After Meng started to cry, Sanniu dragged Erniu back to report the news, "Grandma made my Sixth Uncle cry. I heard that you refused to give him the silver."

Jian Ning hurried to wake Ding Youtian. "Something's happened. Sixth Brother is crying over there, and they won't give him any money. Do they need to give more money for the wedding? A few taels of silver is enough for a wedding in the countryside. I listened to you and gave them twenty taels, but now they've put the money in their pockets and won't take it out. At this critical moment, they're still waiting over there. Brother Ma and his family went there yesterday. What should we do?"

"Don't panic, let me think about it." Ding Youtian said as he put on his clothes, "Yes, most likely they want to pay the entrance fee. It won't be much, six hundred or eight hundred coins is a token of appreciation. I'll go find the clan leader, and you count out eight hundred coins for me. Hurry up."

Without wasting a second, Jian Ning immediately opened the money box and took out a hundred coins. "Take them all. There are several children over there, and the bride and groom need to be given some wedding money. Ask the clan leader to hand this hundred coins to Lao Liu. Go quickly."

Erniu and Sanniu also went with Ding Youtian.

Although Lao Liu finally married his wife, he also harbored resentment towards his parents. After the people who had made a fuss in the bridal chamber dispersed that night, he packed up his things and was about to take Xiaoyu back to the county town.

Xiaoyu had heard what happened early that morning. She said, "If I leave now, I'll be known as a bad daughter-in-law in this village. I know you're feeling aggrieved, but please be patient for a few days. We have a long way to go. After all, they are your parents who gave birth to you. Without them, you wouldn't exist. In any case, let's stay at home for two days. It won't be too late to go back home after three days."

"If you don't want to come back to this house in the future, we should try to come back less often, only come back for a few days during the holidays. My grandma always said that people must learn to be more open-minded. When your heart is open, your path will be wider."

"Your grandmother said that very well."

With Xiaoyu's comfort, Lao Liu gradually calmed down.

Lao Liu and Xiaoyu stayed at home for two days. Xiaoyu got up early for two days in a row, washed her hands, prepared three meals a day, and took apart and washed the bedding on Meng and Lao Dingtou's beds. She was busy at home for two days, cleaning Lao Dingtou and Meng's rooms and the yard.

Like Tian, ​​she had a kind face and round eyes. Even when she was not smiling, she looked amiable. Even Meng could not find any fault with her. The neighbors also said that Lao Liu was very lucky. He must have found such a good wife with a lantern.

On the third day, Xiaoyu got up early as usual and prepared breakfast. After breakfast, she took Laoliu to say goodbye to Lao Dingtou and Meng, and bowed to them respectfully.

For a moment, a warm feeling flowed through Meng's heart. She now felt that her son was unreliable and regretted not being able to give birth to a daughter. The idea of ​​giving Xiaoyu a hundred dollars flashed through her mind.

Whether it was to win over her or for some other reason, she intuitively felt that it would do no harm to have a good relationship with her daughter-in-law.

But in the end, she couldn't bear to do so and gave herself a way out. Who knows whether this girl from the Tian family is sincere or not? She will just have to wait and see.

Laoliu and Xiaoyu came out of the house, saying that they were going to say goodbye to their aunt Tian. Tian worked for Jian Ning, so the two naturally went straight to Jian Ning.

"Fourth sister-in-law! Fourth brother." Lao Liu walked into the house and knelt down, kowtowed three times to Jian Ning and Ding Youtian. He knew that the hundred-dollar bill sent by the clan leader was taken by his fourth brother and sister-in-law. "Xiao Liu will not say anything. From now on, if my brother and sister-in-law have any instructions, Xiao Liu will frown..."

"Shut up!"

Ding Youtian shouted at him before he could finish.
