"Excuse me, little dove."
"It's nothing, I just hope that those of us who have suffered together can be fine, that's the best.
Okay, you guys take a rest first.
If you need anything, just ask someone to do it.
But I need to treat my leg early tomorrow morning, so don’t eat or drink.”
Chaoge left, and Zhou Daqiang stared coldly at Liang Chunxiu beside him, his eyes were terrifyingly cold.
He didn't know why this beautiful girl had become like this.
"Why are you staring at me?"
Zhou Daqiang said sarcastically: "Don't you know what's going on?
You spread the news that my sister is pregnant everywhere. What is your intention?
Whether my sister gets married or not is our family's business. You haven't married me yet, so it's not your turn to make decisions, right?"
Hearing this, Liang Chunxiu also got angry immediately: "You are a heartless Zhou Daqiang, you saw the girl smiling, and as soon as she turned around, you treated me like this?
Oh, I have no right to interfere in your family's affairs?
Yes, I am not qualified.
Don't be so heartless. You have become a cripple, and I don't despise you. Why do you still treat me like this?
I am such a slut, and I still take the trouble to take care of you."
"If you don't despise me, then didn't your mother directly increase the betrothal silver from two taels to thirty taels?
Why didn't you say anything when your family was raising the price?
Thirty taels!
Even if it wasn't a year of famine, how could an ordinary citizen casually come up with thirty taels of silver?
I'll tell you the truth, I'd rather be a bachelor and a cripple for the rest of my life than let my father drive himself to the brink of death in order to marry me a greedy wife like you!"
After Zhou Daqiang finished speaking, Liang Chunxiu's original confidence disappeared in an instant.
She slumped back onto the round stool beside her, her eyes red.
"Is that what I want? That's what my mother wants!
Besides, didn’t your father nod and take it out?
You, what's the point of blaming me?
Your family obviously has this much money!"
Zhou Daqiang smiled coldly: "Yes, my father can afford it.
My father was afraid that I would be lame and single for the rest of my life. My father thought about how much I once loved you and he didn’t want to make me sad.
My father can afford it, but did you know that the money was borrowed by my father?
All of them were borrowed by Xiaogezi, and he planned to use them for our family to settle down.
Now, your mother asked for a betrothal gift of thirty taels of silver, regardless of the fact that we were still living in a straw hut. But what did you say?
You didn't say anything! You even encouraged my sister to marry the widower who beat several of his wives to death.
Do you think that after my sister marries that widower, there will be a sum of money as a betrothal gift to our Zhou family?
In the end, that money is also yours?
I tell you, just give up on this idea."
Chaoge put away his wood-related skills, sighed, and left silently.
I thought that lending them money would help them start a new life, but Zhou Dong didn't expect that he would meet such in-laws.
But Zhou Dong didn’t know what he was thinking. The Liang family was asking for such a huge amount of money, so why would he continue to indulge them?
hehe.......
In the evening, Zhu Da arrived and the price of the farm outside the county town was negotiated.
Although it was not the price Chaoge wanted, it was still five hundred taels less.
Chaoge was not a person who would procrastinate, and he immediately signed the purchase agreement with them.
A few days later, when the land deed is issued by the government, she can pay the remaining silver.
The farm of more than one thousand acres was all hers.
In the evening, Yunxuan and Qin brought their children to have dinner together. At the dinner table, Yunxuan suggested finding a new courtyard to open a private school.
Chaoge agreed immediately. He had never thought that the family would be so large before, and now there are more and more of them, which is indeed inconvenient.
"Then you go and choose a yard, and I'll come and see it after you've chosen one.
Get it done as soon as possible, the New Year is coming soon, renovate the yard before the New Year, and arrange everything that needs to be arranged so that we can recruit students when the New Year begins."
"Well, I will finish the yard in the next two days."
After saying that, Yunxuan looked at Mrs. Zhang, whose face was gloomy.
"Mom, why do you have such a sullen face today? What's wrong? Are you unhappy about something?"
Chaoge continued to eat without saying a word. She probably guessed that Mrs. Zhang was still sulking about Yun Qingli.
Hearing Yunxuan's words, Yunchang, who realized it later, couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and looked at Mrs. Zhang: "Yes, when I came back today, I saw that mother's face was ashen. What's wrong with you?
But are you unhappy living in this county town? "
Seeing that everyone at the table, except Chaoge, was staring at her, Mrs. Zhang simply put down her chopsticks and turned to look at Yunxuan and Qin.
"You uncles and aunts, do you know that there is a niece in a town forty miles outside this county town?"
Zou Dayong's home is not in the suburbs of Lingfeng County, but in a small village forty miles away.
It was thanks to Yunxuan's relationship that Zou Dayong was able to find a job as a long-term farmhand, and he worked on the farm for two or three years.
The fixed monthly salary of four hundred coins was already an enviable income compared to the average country family.
Because of this, Zou Dayong, who was able to earn money, felt more and more that Yun Qingli was useless because she did not give him a son, and he treated Yun Qingli and her daughter even worse.
Today, Yun Qingli brought her children to the village from forty miles away to ask Zou Dayong for money.
