The two sisters-in-law, who had always had a good relationship, started arguing for the first time.
"Second sister-in-law, what right do you have to stop my son from going to school? My mother-in-law hasn't even said anything yet! And you're already trying to make the decision?"
Li directly attacked the issue, implying that He wanted to bypass the old Wang family's housekeeper.
"I didn't mean that at all. My eldest child is already struggling to go to school, so where would we get the money to support another one?"
Old Mrs. Wang was having a headache from the two arguing. Of course, she wanted Liu Dalang to go to school too, but where would she get so much money? She loved both of her grandsons and didn't know which one to help.
Liu Erlin and Liu Sanzhu also returned from outside. They heard the noise inside the house, came in and asked what was going on.
The two brothers, who were just laughing and joking, immediately turned hostile and both felt that their wives were right.
"Second brother, my wife is right. Who knows if your eldest son can pass the exam? What if my eldest son goes and studies even better!"
"Third brother, my eldest son has been studying for so long. He's so smart, he'll definitely pass the imperial examination. If your eldest son goes and doesn't do well, wouldn't that be a waste of money?"
As a result, the two brothers joined in, and the argument escalated even further.
"Shut up, both of you!" Liu Yuanshan couldn't sleep because of the noise. He heard his two sons arguing, and it was all because they didn't have any money. If they had money, the problem would be solved.
He then thought of his eldest son's family. Now his eldest son had built such a big house and had reportedly acquired a lot of things. He must still have money on hand.
"Stop arguing, second and third brothers, why don't you two go to your eldest brother's house and borrow some money? It's a good thing that the children want to study, let your eldest brother help you."
Hearing their father speak, the two stopped arguing and turned to walk towards Liu Dashi's new house.
Old Mrs. Wang wanted to follow, but Liu Yuanshan stopped her, saying, "Old woman, what are you going to do? Haven't you lost face enough last time? If the two brothers go, they can say a few nice words and maybe the eldest brother will lend it to you."
“You won’t say anything good, and you might even make things worse. I don’t want to be talked about by the whole village again.”
"Hmph! Fine, I won't go then," Old Wang snorted, but she still didn't dare disobey her husband.
The old man is wicked and craves fame; he's a typical woman who wants to maintain a facade of chastity even when she's a prostitute.
