"Dad, what are you doing?"
Hitting someone with a shoe is very taboo, and Li Guowei was hit on the head before he could even say anything, so how could he be in a good mood? He glared angrily at Xie Ming, believing that Xie Ming had spoken ill of him.
"Second Brother! Just tell us what you want when you come back. If any of us brothers have something, you can take it. If not, we'll sell our blood to raise the money for you!"
The fourth brother, Li Guoxing, was a sharp-tongued person. He couldn't stand his older brother's tendency to take leftovers and would immediately start criticizing him. In his eyes, his older brother was a troublemaker.
"You have no right to speak, so sit down!"
He shoved the fourth brother and tried to squeeze next to Li Liangcai.
Aunt Jin came in from the kitchen carrying a basket of mixed grain buns. When she saw her good son, she said sarcastically, "Oh! My son-in-law who moved in with his wife's family is back. This time he brought a few pieces of yarn to see his old mother!"

"No, it's not even clear whose surname that child will have after it's born. The chickens I raise are for the proper daughters-in-law of the Li family." Aunt Jin didn't want to argue, but she felt so aggrieved!
A perfectly good son fell in love with the only girl in the next village, and they agreed that if she married into the family and had children, one of them would be given to their family.
They brought the bride home with all the dowry and wedding banquet money, and then, after the wedding, the other family abducted their son.
At first, she didn't quite understand, but after her son went to work in the next village every few days, she finally figured out what was going on.
That family wants both a bride price for their daughter and a dowry for their son-in-law. If I'm not mistaken, they should have already decided on the surname of the child the baby is carrying!
