Of course, who doesn’t want all the children in the family to be like the Jiang family boy?
But people need to know their own limitations. She and He Liehu are not good people. They still expect Xiaoliu and other boys to produce any good results. She should thank heaven and all the gods for blessing Xiaoliu if he can pass the exam.
Besides, there are more than just Xiaoliu in the family. The eldest and second sons are about to start their own families. Where will they live? The family must build a house, and neither one costs money.
It's already a great favor to Xiaoliu by letting him study for two more years than his brothers. If I only favor the younger one in the future, and the younger one fails to achieve anything, he will become estranged from his two older sons. Who will I rely on when I'm old?
Hunter He is over thirty years old and still unwilling to go into the mountains. How can she count on him?
She hasn't been sincere to the girls in her family, but she still expects them to come back and stay with her after they get married?
You wish! She is not that kind of person!
When the girls got married, she had to plot against them. It would be good enough if they didn't become enemies. She even expected them to come back to her parents' home to help? She was dreaming.
Moreover, with the pearls and jade of immortality before them, the maids, big and small, all earned their food through labor. After they got married and repaid the kindness of giving birth, they would be able to leave this family for good.
When it came to Sister He's marriage, Mrs. He was overwhelmed by the choices and finally chose the two families that offered the highest bride price.
The excuse is that you can live your own life and make your own choices, and as your mother, I have thought enough about you.
The highest betrothal gift was eighty taels of silver, for a concubine to be the eighteenth in the family of a nobleman. Originally, a nobleman could not afford such a high price for a concubine, as the traffickers had all the girls they wanted.
But He Shi was able to give birth and raise all the children. Yuanwailang had everything except a son.
Sister He is good-looking and looks healthy. She is not the skinny type who looks like she can't have a son.
The family of Carpenter Zhou gave the smallest amount of betrothal gift, forty taels of silver.
Carpenter Zhou had three wives before, but all of them died in childbirth, so now girls from all over the country don't dare to marry him.
But he just wanted to marry a virgin girl, so he paid a high price.
If Zhou's family was not a carpenter and her second son was not an apprentice to a carpenter, she would not have considered Carpenter Zhou.
After all, the betrothal gift from Yuanwailang's family is twice as much.
It's a sky-high price in this village. Even if all the girls were sold to that dirty place, they wouldn't be worth this price.
However, these two families also made it clear that if the bride price is high, they will cut off all contact with the woman's family and avoid contact as much as possible.
It’s not a loss to raise a girl and recover so much blood at one time.
Sister He chose Carpenter Zhou, and the life of the Yuanwailang family seemed glamorous, but who knew if she could give birth to a son. The previous seventeen concubines and the original wife had all failed to give birth to a son. She did not think that she was the favorite of God, the only one with the good fortune to give birth to a son.
Carpenter Zhou is not a good choice either, but he is not a short man pulling out an awl, he has a good skill.
He married three wives and was still able to offer forty taels of betrothal gift. His family was really well off.
After marrying into the Zhou family, she will be the legal wife and will not lack money to spend, which is great.
The night before Sister He's wedding, Changsheng brought her a bowl of water as usual.
In her previous life, Sister He did not marry Carpenter Zhou, but married a scholar. She relied on the He family's prosperity to show off her power in front of her husband's family and brought disaster to the whole family.
In this life, the carpenter Zhou that He chose was a man with a violent tendency. The previous women were often beaten and had miscarriages. The reason for their difficult labor was also because they were beaten before delivery.
He would give a high dowry to each of his wives, just to find the family who sold his daughter, so that if anything happened in the future, he would have an explanation and reduce trouble.
Changsheng felt that Sister He and Carpenter Zhou were a good match, and it could be considered as getting rid of a threat to women.
At the beginning, Sister He and Carpenter Zhou were in a sweet relationship for about a month.
Although Carpenter Zhou was seven or eight years older than Sister He, he was older and more caring. He also gave the family money to Sister He to manage. The couple almost closed the door every day to cultivate their relationship, and the neighbors laughed at them.
The unexpected incident happened when Carpenter Zhou had just completed a big order and received a payment. He was in a good mood and bought two kilograms of wine.
Sister He saw this and tactfully prepared a table full of delicious food. The two of them were in a very good relationship and drank wine with each other.
When Carpenter Zhou first started drinking, he was quite normal, especially when his new wife accompanied him to drink the wedding wine. It was such a great feeling.
You know, when he was newly married, he was afraid that he couldn't control himself, so he only drank water. Now that he finally got to drink some wine, his emotions were quite good.
After drinking, the two went to bed. Everything was fine at first, but suddenly, Carpenter Zhou started punching and kicking Sister He.
"You little whore, I told you to cheat and be restless..." Sister He was confused. What was going on?
By the time Sister He realized what was happening, there was no good flesh left on her body. She was really obsessed with Carpenter Zhou.
Sister He used all her strength to push Carpenter Zhou away. She thought that she would not be able to push him away due to the huge difference in strength between men and women. However, Carpenter Zhou was like a paper man and was knocked to the ground.
Carpenter Zhou could tolerate his wife's resistance? Of course not. He got up and continued to beat her.
If I don't beat him up today, he'll be cheating on me every day! Just like his widow mother.
Sister He suddenly realized that she had awakened the powerful gene. With the example of Changsheng and A Niang in her family, she was extremely confident that she was also a descendant of the He family, so there was no reason why she didn't have such excellent genes!
Sooner or later, it will always be stimulated at the critical moment.
She had seen her mother beating her father at home. At first, it was done without any rules. Later, she saw that her mother only liked to use the whip as a tool and avoided the face. Her father seemed to enjoy it very much afterwards.
