Chapter 311 It's all for the good of our children.

Li Banxia did not respond immediately, and Grandma Fang realized something and spoke up to stop her.

"Stop talking, it's the second son's family!"

Grandma Fang tried to stop her, but couldn't.

Erniu's mother was very stubborn, staring at Li Banxia, ​​"Mother-in-law..."

Li Banxia shook her head.

In her hopeful gaze, she said, "I won't."

"What do you mean? You're not going to support us?"

Erniu's mother's expression changed slightly, and her voice unconsciously rose a few decibels, "What if those two lose money in their business and can't support themselves and their child? As their mother, if you don't help them out and lend them a hand, what will they do? What will happen to my Erniu? Didn't she go to your Su family to suffer?!"

"mom……"

Fang Erniu tried to stop her, but Su Laosan pulled her back and whispered, "Since your mother has asked these questions, she definitely wants a definite answer. If you don't let her ask now, our marriage negotiations can't continue..."

"But……"

Fang Erniu exclaimed, "I was just worried that if my mother asked, it would put my aunt in a difficult position. If my aunt doesn't agree, the marriage can't continue."

Su Laosan sighed.

Looking at his own mother and mother-in-law, he said softly, "When two people meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins. Guess who will win, your mother or my mother?"

Fang Erniu glared at him.

“If my mom wins, it means my aunt will have to suffer and back down. I don’t want my aunt to suffer, especially since it’s from my mom! If my aunt wins… given my mom’s temper, our marriage will probably have to be called off.”

Su Laosan gave a soft "hmm," his brows furrowing deeply.

Over there, Li Banxia asked Erniu's mother in a calm voice, "What exactly do you mean by 'subsidizing' and 'helping out'? What constitutes 'helping out'?"

"...What a question you're asking, Mother-in-law. When that child doesn't have money and asks you for it, you have to give it to him, right? And when the child doesn't have time to take care of him, you have to help take care of him, right?"

Erniu's mother was a little angry. Was Li Banxia doing this on purpose?

How did she raise her four sons? Is there even a need to ask that?!

Li Banxia said "oh" and then asked, "How much does my mother-in-law think is appropriate? As for taking care of the child... how should I take care of him?"

"Of course it depends on how many children you have. Raising children is very expensive. You can't just take care of your eldest son and daughter-in-law's two children, can you? In the future, won't the children that Erniu and her husband have also become your grandchildren? What could be more important than your own grandchildren? Don't you think so?"

Li Banxia gave a weak smile.

"You mean I have to give them whatever they ask for, and when they say they're busy, I have to drop everything and help them take care of their kids..."

Erniu's mother gave a satisfied "Ah!"

Li Banxia raised her eyes and glanced lightly at Su Laosan, whose face was even more unpleasant than when he had frowned earlier.

Seeing his biological mother looking at him, he quickly waved his hand, "Mom isn't me, it's me and Erniu. We can take care of them ourselves, and besides, there's Grandma Qiu and Arno..."

Fang Erniu stared blankly at her own mother.

He said, "Mom, what are you saying? My third brother, Su, hasn't asked the family for money since he graduated from university. Auntie has never given him or his wife any money either. They both have salaries and earn their own money. We've never thought of asking Auntie for money. We have a grocery store, and what we earn is enough for the two of us..."

"Fang Erniu, are you stupid?!"

Erniu's mother tapped her daughter's forehead. "Who am I doing this for? It's all for you! Can a grocery store be compared to being a teacher? A teacher's job is secure, the older you get, the more sought-after you are and the higher your salary becomes. If your store doesn't do well and loses money, you won't have money to raise your child. If you don't ask your mother-in-law for money, who will you ask?"

"How could we have run our business so badly?"

Fang Erniu didn't understand why her mother was thinking the worst about things.

"...I haven't seen you give my older brother and sister-in-law any money, have I? My sister-in-law raises all her children herself, hasn't she? How many times have you even visited them?! Mom, you haven't even done things yourself, how can you expect to make things difficult for Auntie..."

Erniu's mother was angered by her daughter's words and glared at her.

"How can that be the same? Our family is from the countryside, and all women in the countryside have gone through this. When I gave birth to you all, I took care of the children, did the housework, and did all the farm work myself. You're different. You married into the city. You don't have land to farm, and if you don't do business to earn money, you'll starve. If you do business, you can't stay home with the children every day. And you want to go out with Su Laosan, so who will take care of the children?"

Erniu's mother sighed and said earnestly, "I was wondering the other day when you said your future mother-in-law wanted to open a health center. She's always running around, what will happen to the children at home? Mother-in-law, haven't you thought about this?"

Li Banxia's lips moved.

Erniu's mother said "Oh", "I know you have a nanny, but a nanny can't take care of many children, right? Your eldest son has two children, and then Erniu has two more, so you still have two sons. When they get married and have children, who will the nanny be working for and who won't she be working for?"

She used to think it was a good thing that Erniu's in-laws had a nanny to take care of the children, but now she sees a lot of trouble. Just thinking about the life Erniu would have to live after marrying into the family makes her feel sorry for Erniu.

This future mother-in-law of hers seems to favor her eldest son and daughter-in-law. She even tries to find ways to subsidize her eldest son's family when it comes to Erniu's wedding.

Who can say for sure how she'll go astray in the future?

Erniu's mother became increasingly upset. She already disliked Su Laosan, and now she couldn't stand Li Banxia either.

Grandma Fang sighed, feeling sorry for her granddaughter and thinking that although what Erniu's mother said was unpleasant to hear, it was indeed a problem that Erniu would have to face after getting married.

However, judging from the mother-in-law's attitude, I'm afraid...

Suspended.

Li Banxia smiled, "So, what do you mean, in-law?"

Erniu's mother held Fang Erniu's hand and sighed heavily.

He said, "It's all for the good of our children. I won't make any excessive demands, just these two: First, you have to give your children whatever money they ask for..."

That sounds impossible!

How much do you want? Is Mr. Su a banker? That's not how you ask for money!

Grandma Fang quickly stopped her, "Second son's wife, listen to what you're saying! Does that make sense? Giving as much as you want? Who gave you the audacity to say that?! Erniu married Su Laosan, not a bank!"

Li Banxia stopped her.

“Grandma, let Erniu’s mother finish speaking. We are getting married, not becoming enemies. I also want to hear if I can do what she says. Grandma, please continue.”

Grandma Fang glared at Erniu's mother, telling her to stop.

Sister-in-law Fang glanced at Brother Fang with concern. Brother Fang sighed, feeling that the harmonious discussions about marriage that had just begun were about to be disrupted by his mother.

Erniu's mother knew that they were all unhappy that she said this, but who else would say it besides her?

The only one who truly loves Erniu is her mother!
