Ma Dexiang was scolded by Liang Shengdi and stood there motionless, feeling lucky that the shop had just closed...
"No, Mom, this matter... I really don't know, and those children didn't say anything..." So, it's not that he is thinking about having a son, but that his daughter is not close to her father when she grows up!
"What do you want them to say? Don't I know what kind of person you are? Don't you know what kind of person your mother is?"
"The little ones have to go to school and have to scrape together the money, and the older ones want to get married and want to swallow the bride price? What the hell are they talking about?"
Liang Shengdi often plays bad and often fights with others, but to be honest, she is not really angry very often, and most of the time she is angry when she needs to. But today she is really angry,
"Do you think a daughter is no longer close to her father after she grows up? Why haven't I seen Shuying and Guoqing no longer close to each other? When Yulan's father was around, she didn't seem to be no longer close to him. It's me who didn't pay much attention to her, so she can't be close to him. I take responsibility for this!"
"You two said you didn't want to have any more children, and you haven't even done anything yet. And you're talking about going out to work odd jobs to earn money for the children's tuition? Oh, you've already earned the tuition, and you're saying you're going to pay?
Now, if I stand before your desk and say I support you becoming the village Party secretary, shouldn't you be grateful to me? Just kowtow to me!"
Ma Dexiang: ...
"Did you know that Wu Ni and the others were planning to use all the money they earned from raising chickens and ducks to build a house for Dani? How old are they? They have to earn money to support themselves and their sisters in school, and also build a house for their sisters?"
"Sanni is right! With your level of accomplishment, they might as well set up their own household and split it out! They can also avoid having to look at your mother's old face twice!"
"Mom! I really don't know!" Ma Dexiang got anxious again when he said this. "Dani never came back to tell me. If she had asked, I would have lent her some money!"
"borrow?"
"Give it to her! Give it to her! She's my eldest daughter! My first child, and the one I hold the most! How could I not love her!"
"You fart!"
"If you really loved her, you wouldn't have let her marry into the Wang family so easily!"
"I didn't take care of Yulan much in the beginning. Her grandma and her dad took care of her, but I still know what it means to love a child!"
"Her grandmother tightened her belt to send her and Guoqing to primary school, saying that if they knew a few words, they would have something to eat even if they had no land to farm!"
"When she was marrying into your family, her father went through so much trouble to choose yours! Why? Because you have fewer people in your family! Fewer mouths to feed! So you can have more food to eat!"
"She was stupid enough to give birth to so many children for you, so I can't do anything about it. But at least she will have a good life in the beginning!"
"Your family is so good! After hearing that the Wang family has five sons, you excitedly married him off. Five sons!! That means there are five daughters-in-law! There are so many children down there! You can marry him if you give me food!"
Ma Dexiang was spitted in the face by Liang Shengdi, but he didn't dare to get angry. He wiped his face awkwardly and defended himself in a low voice.
"Well...men are the breadwinners and women are the homemakers...a girl's marriage...is usually handled by the women in the family...mainly my mom..."
"Your mother, your mother is your mother again! You MB!" Liang Shengdi was furious and banged on the table.
"Ma Dexiang, you're a worthless wimp! All you hear is your mother talking all day long! As the village party secretary, isn't it your mother who also talks when you're in charge of all the big and small matters in the village?"
Ma Dexiang was startled and quickly waved his hands, "No, no, Mom! You can't say such nonsense!"
"How could I talk nonsense! How could I talk nonsense!" Liang Shengdi's voice became louder and louder, almost shouting.
"Don't keep blaming your mother for your own failures! If you keep blaming your mother for everything, I'll stand in the village square and ask everyone if this village secretary is even competent enough!"
"Oh, my god! I really didn't...! I was wrong! It's my fault! This is all my fault! Seriously!"
Ma Dexiang almost knelt down to his mother-in-law. It was not easy for him to be the village party secretary! What did he say? He was just a grandson!
"Mom! Listen to me! It's no use talking about the past now, but I really didn't know that Dani and Wang Yong were going to build a house." Seeing that Liang Shengdi was about to explode again, he quickly stretched out his hand, "But!"
"But! Now I know!"
"I'll go back tonight and get some money together. I should be able to scrape together four or five hundred. I'll have Yulan give it to Dani then... Well, she really didn't have much money when she got married, so this can be considered a dowry subsidy..."
Liang Shengdi snorted coldly, "Four or five hundred can only cover the roof of half a house..."
"My family really doesn't have that much money..." Ma Dexiang was about to cry, "You know, the money earned by the girls in our family is in their own hands. After Yulan gave birth to Jiuni, even my mother didn't allow her to ask them for money!
You are right, they do pay for their own tuition and dowry, but if they want to buy cloth or meat, it also costs money!
The village secretary's salary is the same as the village security director's and accountant's, which is about forty bucks a month. That's all the family expenses! As for me, I just became the village secretary, and there's not much extra money to earn. It's really not easy to save four or five hundred over the years!"
This is because he thought that his next few children were all very capable and would not need much money in the next few years, so he wanted to spend all his family savings. If Liang Shengdi forced him again, he would really have no choice but to sell blood.
Liang Shengdi rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Don't act like I'm oppressing you like a landlord! I'm just here to remind you, as a father, what you should do!"
"Yes, yes, I know. You're doing this for our own good..." Ma Dexiang nodded like a quail in front of his mother-in-law. "Yulan and I also know that we've wronged Dani by letting her get married. Isn't Erni doing well?"
"Did you find a husband for Erni?" Liang Shengdi's anger, which had just calmed down, flared up again. "Do you think I don't know that it was Dani who helped find them? You know you two are unreliable! Oh my God! How could they have ended up with parents like you..."
Ma Dexiang just reached out and slapped himself in the face. What should he say? Seeing that the scolding was almost over, he still wanted to say a few more words. What a sick person!
…
Liang Shengdi came out of the village committee and went back to work in her own fields. When she passed by the Ma family's fields, Lin Yulan happened to come up from below. Seeing Liang Shengdi, she smiled and called out, "Mom, go to the fields~"
"Idiot!" Liang Shengdi rolled her eyes and walked past her.
Lin Yulan: ??? No, what happened to her?
