Aunt Zhang sneered:
"What are they supposed to eat? Did their parents earn enough for fine grains? Why should they be given that?"
"If they're really good, then we'll give them to them. They're all our own kids. With a mother full of ulterior motives, what kind of good kids can she raise? It's a waste of their money!"
Everyone loves their own child. No matter how good your grandchildren are, they didn't come from your womb. Aunt Zhang doesn't think they are as important as her son!
Not to mention her grandchildren, even her four good-for-nothing sons have broken Aunt Zhang's heart.
Aunt Zhang thought differently from others. She believed that her daughter-in-law's willingness to cause such a commotion at home meant that her son's stance was flawed.
If the son is truly filial, the daughter-in-law would definitely not dare to do so!
Putting everything else aside, just take a firm stance and send your daughter-in-law back to her parents' home; not one of them would be unafraid.
But her four sons just follow their wives around all day long, without any opinions of their own.
Aunt Zhang had already planned it all out. Once Xiao Liu got married, she would divide the family property. Those bastards wouldn't even dream of taking advantage of Xiao Liu and her third daughter again!
As for the old couple, if Xiao Liu's wife is good, then they will belong to Xiao Liu's family. If Xiao Liu's wife is not so good, then they will live on their own!
Hearing Aunt Zhang say this, Zhang Liuzhi was actually quite happy. Who wouldn't want to eat more refined grains, especially since his mother insisted on giving them to him?
Zhang Liuzhi said with a smile:
"Okay, I'll listen to Mom. I'll give all the money to her when I get it!"
Aunt Zhang smiled broadly:
“I’ve saved them all up. Once spring planting is over, I’ll find you a wife.”
"Sixth Brother, let me tell you, you can't find a wife like your four older brothers. They're so frivolous, and if a girl says a few nice words to them, they lose their minds and insist on marrying her no matter what she's like!"
Zhang Liuzhi was quite embarrassed when this was mentioned. Although he and Wang Erlaizi often bantered, he had never actually been in a relationship. When Aunt Zhang brought it up, Zhang Liuzhi's ears turned red, and he said, his face flushed:
"I'll listen to my mother on this matter. I'll marry whoever you fancy!"
Aunt Zhang glared at him and said:
"Nonsense! Who's getting married, you or me? You're the one who has to choose. She's all talk and no action, and her character is questionable. You'd better keep your eyes open!"
"Alright, alright, it's too early to talk about these things now. Let me oversee things for you!"
Aunt Zhang was really worried about her son's judgment, mainly because there were too many failed examples before!
Zhang Liu pointed to this side, where the mother and son were chatting happily; the son was capable and the mother doted on him.
Wang Erlaizi was in trouble. When Wang Da Niang heard what Wang Erlaizi said, she almost knocked her own kang (heated brick bed) down.
She shouted:
"What did you say? Six Fingers is going to work at a food factory for four and a half months, and they're paying him so much? You're saying they've got their eye on Six Fingers? Why didn't they choose you?"
"Tell me, explain it to me in detail!"
Wang Erlai Zitian shamelessly said:
"Maybe they thought I was too handsome and were jealous, so they didn't consider me and chose the not-so-good-looking Six Fingers?"
"Mom, your son looks like you. I'm too handsome, and people are always jealous of me. There's nothing I can do about it!"
Aunt Wang: If there weren't mirrors in the house, I might believe your nonsense...
He thinks he's more handsome than Zhang Liuzhi? Why doesn't this little brat take a piss and look at his own long, narrow face?
Aunt Wang grabbed a broom from the corner of the kang (a heated brick bed) and slammed it down on Wang Erlaizi, cursing:
"You still dare to argue with me? Do you really think I don't know anything just because I wasn't there? With your lazy attitude, how could I not know? You were doing nothing there, while Six Fingers was busy helping the loading and unloading team, so someone else took a liking to you!"
"You bastard, what did I tell you before you left? When you're with Master Zhong, have some sense of propriety, have some sense of propriety! Did you hear me? You forgot as soon as you turned your back. I'll beat you to death today..."
Speaking of this, Wang Erlaizi felt quite aggrieved. He was really quite perceptive; he was the fastest to hand tools to Master Zhong. Even the clever Xiao Baiyang, because of his small stature and short legs, couldn't keep up with his speed.
Zhang Liuzhi went to help out not because he couldn't understand anything, but because he could understand it. Not only could he understand it, but he also listened with great interest and was extremely interested. He really didn't want to go to the loading and unloading team to help out!
If it weren't for the fact that this matter couldn't be kept a secret, and that his mother and Aunt Zhang were best friends, he really wouldn't want to tell his mother.
The main problem is that if he keeps it a secret and his mother finds out, things will get even worse. Right now, it's just a small matter, but if she finds out from Aunt Zhang, his mother might just throw a pestle, a hoe, or a hammer at him!
Zhang Liuzhi is really a menace! Why is he so obviously more diligent? We all went out the same way. Even if he didn't understand, couldn't he just stand by and be a hindrance? He's really ruined his life!
Wang Erlaizi ran outside while yelling for help. His past experiences told him that if he didn't run now, his mother would definitely beat him to a pulp.
Wang Erlaizi ran away, and Wang Da Niang felt bad. It wasn't that she was jealous of Zhang Liuzhi's ability to make money, but mainly that she felt sorry for Master Zhong for sending such a lazybones out!
It's all her fault! How could she trust this lazy bum? If she had known, she should have let Er Laizi's father accompany Master Zhong on his journey!
