"Your mother said, your mother said, Zhao Tianyu, you are twenty-four years old this year, not four. You are a grown man, don't you have your own thoughts? Do you listen to your mother in everything? Tell me, are you going to ask your mother for the 600 yuan?" Liang Xiaohe interrupted Zhao Tianyu again and asked angrily.
Liang Xiaohe called that person at noon today.
The man also promised Liang Xiaohe that he would help Liang Xiaobao find a job. However, if Liang Xiaohe did not send the money within three days, the matter would be over.
Liang Xiaohe originally thought that she could get the money from her mother-in-law today, so she readily agreed.
Now, Zhao Tianyu has changed his mind.
How could Liang Xiaohe accept this?
"Liang Xiaohe, what are you making a fuss about? Also, that money was not taken for free. We borrowed it from my mother. We have to pay it back in the future." Zhao Tianyu also got angry.
Liang Xiaohe's heart skipped a beat and his mind became a little clearer.
Zhao Tianyu is not a person without temper.
Liang Xiaohe knew that she couldn't go on like this.
"Wow... Tianyu, I'm under so much pressure! We have been married for three years, but I haven't been able to give your Zhao family a child. Do you know what people say about me behind my back? A chicken that doesn't lay eggs! When I lie in bed at night, my heart aches whenever I think about this." Liang Xiaohe's tears came as soon as she spoke.
"Xiao He, don't cry. Matters concerning children are a matter of fate. People can say whatever they want. I have never blamed you." Zhao Tianyu quickly reached out to wipe Liang Xiaohe's tears. His anger had long since disappeared.
"I know you don't blame me. What about your parents? They must have wanted to have a grandchild for a long time. It's all my fault. Sometimes, I wish I could just die. You should find a new wife and have more children for the Zhao family." Liang Xiaohe cried and hit his stomach hard with his fist.
Zhao Tianyu quickly grabbed Liang Xiaohe's hand to stop her from "self-harming".
"Xiaohe, please don't think like that. I don't want anyone else but you." Zhao Tianyu hugged Liang Xiaohe in his arms and said comfortingly.
"Wow!" Liang Xiaohe hugged Zhao Tianyu's waist and cried even louder.
Zhao Tianyu was busy trying to coax Liang Xiaohe.
Liang Xiaohe cried for a while, and then she saw Zhou Tianyu's distressed face, and then she said, "Tianyu, my dad said that the Chinese medicine doctor doesn't live in the neighboring county for a long time. I was also worried that I wouldn't be able to find him if time dragged on. That's why I was a little anxious. You won't blame me, right?"
After Liang Xiaohe finished speaking, he sniffed and looked pitiful.
Sure enough, Zhao Tianyu was fooled: "Doesn't that Chinese medicine doctor live in the neighboring county for a long time? Has your father asked him when he will leave?"
"My dad heard that the Chinese medicine doctor will stay in the neighboring county for two or three days. How about... you go talk to mom again? I'll leave as soon as I get the money tomorrow morning and I should be able to catch up." Liang Xiaohe suggested.
"No, my mother has made up her mind. She will definitely not lend me money before we have the examination." Zhao Tianyu frowned.
"Then...can you borrow some money from your sister first? Don't worry, we will pay it back as soon as we have the money in the future." Liang Xiaohe looked at Zhao Tianyu eagerly and said.
"How could my sister have any money? After getting married, my brother-in-law's money was always taken by his mother, and my sister could not earn much money in the production team all year round." Zhao Tianyu said.
"Your sister has a dowry. I heard that your mother has a dowry box, which is full of valuable things. They were all given to your sister. How could your sister have no money?" Liang Xiaohe was very dissatisfied.
When Zhao Tianyu heard Liang Xiaohe mention the words "dowry box", his mind became a little clearer.
"The dowry my mother gave to my sister was her tailoring skills, not money. I have never heard of any dowry box," said Zhao Tianyu.
The matter of the dowry box is the Zhao family's secret.
No matter how much he liked Liang Xiaohe, Zhao Tianyu could still tell the importance of both.
"I heard your mother and your sister say it with my own ears yesterday at noon, how could it not be true? Zhao Tianyu, you don't treat me as an outsider and that's why you don't want to tell me about the dowry box?" Liang Xiaohe was very unhappy.
"I really have never heard of my mother having a dowry box. If you don't believe me, go ask my mother yourself tomorrow." Zhao Tianyu's face darkened.
"Your Zhao family is really weird. Other families favor sons over daughters, but your family favors daughters over sons. Your mother didn't leave her dowry box to her son as an heirloom, but gave it to her daughter. Your sister is her biological daughter, but you were picked up from outside, right?" Liang Xiaohe muttered.
Seeing that Zhao Tianyu remained silent, Liang Xiaohe continued to instigate: "Your sister is also a traitor. She took so much dowry from her parents' home and often took advantage of them. She brought the children back to her parents' home to eat and drink, and even asked for more before leaving. No matter how rich our family is, we can't stand her taking advantage of us."
“Xiao He, if you are unhappy you can scold me, but don’t talk about my sister.” Zhao Tianyu’s face darkened.
Liang Xiaohe scolded Zhao Tianyu a few times, but Zhao Tianyu pretended not to hear it.
Liang Xiaohe scolded Zhao Zhenzhu, but Zhao Tianyu couldn't stand it.
"Okay, okay, I can't afford to offend your sister. I won't say anything more, okay? I'll go back to my parents' home and ask my mom for money." Liang Xiaohe pulled a long face, waved his hand and went out.
It's a matter of six hundred dollars, and it's urgent.
Since she couldn't get the money from Zhao Tianyu, Liang Xiaohe planned to go back to her parents' home to ask.
After Liang Xiaohe left, Zhao Tianyu felt depressed.
After leaving the room and walking around in the yard with his head down, Zhao Tianyu couldn't help but take out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
"Xiao Yu, why are you smoking? Are you upset?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked.
"Sister, why are you here?" Zhao Tianyu was startled and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground.
"I've been sitting here for more than half an hour. Didn't you see me when you came out of the house?" Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.
Zhao Zhenzhu chased Zhao Tianyu out of Wu Meiyun's room, originally wanting to talk to Zhao Tianyu about something. Unexpectedly, she happened to hear Liang Xiaohe and Zhao Tianyu quarreling.
Zhao Zhenzhu didn't want to eavesdrop.
However, after Zhao Zhenzhu had the space, her mental strength became abnormally strong. Even though Zhao Tianyu and Liang Xiaohe spoke softly, Zhao Zhenzhu could still hear everything clearly.
"Sister, did you... hear what Xiaohe and I were talking about?" Zhao Tianyu asked cautiously.
Seeing Zhao Zhenzhu nod, Zhao Tianyu hurriedly said, "Sister, Xiaohe didn't mean what she said, don't take it to heart."
Zhao Tianyu was afraid that Zhao Zhenzhu would leave her parents' home early after hearing Liang Xiaohe saying bad things about her behind her back.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao He is actually right about one thing. I will give you half of my mother's dowry in a few years..."
Before Zhao Zhenzhu finished speaking, Zhao Tianyu became anxious: "Sister, aren't you slapping me in the face? What your parents gave you is yours. I don't want it."
"Xiao Yu, listen to me. I have thought about this for a long time. This is not a spur of the moment decision today. We are both our mother's children, and you should own half of our mother's things." Zhao Zhenzhu said seriously.
