Mo Yuan followed his older sister all the way to the edge of the village, leaving the two children to play on the side.
He then explained his purpose.
"Sister, did Li San hit you again? If it's really unbearable, just divorce him. Our family's life will be better now. You can bring the kids back. We won't starve you three! This can't go on like this!"
"No, no, Xiaoyuan, I'm fine, don't worry. But you, Lin Xue is a good girl, you must cherish her and live a good life with her from now on. I'm so happy to see you grow up and become sensible!"
"Sister, stop defending him. If he changes for the better, the sun will rise in the west. I'm serious, you've seen it for yourself, our family is doing really well now. And in a few days, I'll be taking my second sister Hongxia and the others to set up our stall. As the stall expands, we'll need more people, and hiring help will cost money. You know how impulsive my second sister is, she's not as reliable as you, my eldest sister. Just remember, if things really get tough, bring them both back! Sister, I'll always leave you a way out here. No matter what, there are still children, please don't take any desperate measures!"
As he spoke, Mo Yuan took out another wad of cash and stuffed it into the wad, saying, "Keep this money hidden secretly, and don't let Li San find out!"
Mo Hongying wanted to refuse, but Mo Yuan ran off, saying, "Sister, take it. These past few years have been so difficult, and you still remember that I love rice. You always bring some when you come. This time, consider it your little brother's way of showing respect! Be careful on your journey, there's still a long way to go, hurry up and go! Remember, sister, I need help here. If it gets too much, just come back!"
Mo Yuan wanted to give his elder sister a path with a glimmer of hope, to prevent any further tragedy.
Then, without waiting for her older sister to refuse, she quickly ran home!
When I got home, I saw everyone sitting there eating. Clearly, although the happy occasion made them all happy, they had been busy for several days.
There wasn't even time to eat properly at noon.
After quickly eating a few bites, I got busy preparing various dishes. Seeing that everyone was enjoying their meal...
Mo Yuan also felt hungry, so Lin Xue helped him get a pair of chopsticks, and the family happily sat around the table to eat.
"Dad, how about it? You can have this braised pork! And these meatballs, have some!"
Seeing that Mo Youshan was just dipping his steamed bun in the vegetable soup, Mo Yuan couldn't help but urge him to eat some vegetables!
Unexpectedly, Mo Youshan looked satisfied. "Alright, alright, this is great. Oh, I never dared to dream of this before! Now that I can eat white flour buns, it's already very good!"
Mo Yuan had no choice but to continue to reassure his father, "Dad, don't worry, our family's life will get better and better in the future! Not only will we be able to eat good food, but we'll also build a new house. When that happens, we'll build a few big brick and tile houses, and everyone will live in the new house!"
After saying that, she turned to her elder brother and sister-in-law and said, "Back then, our family was poor, and my brother couldn't find a wife for a long time. It was my sister-in-law who was understanding. Of course, maybe she also liked my brother because he's good-looking! Right, sister-in-law?"
Chen Qiaoyun rolled her eyes at his words, "Are you asking for a beating? You're getting married today, and you still have no manners! Lin Xue, you need to discipline your husband Mo Yuan properly. He deserves a beating for talking like that!"
The room was filled with laughter, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Mo Yuan also said in a serious tone, "I'm not joking anymore. To be honest, my family really wronged my sister-in-law back then. She didn't mind that we were poor, and she didn't ask for any dowry. Of course, we didn't have any! We were really poor. Now that Lin Xue and I are getting married, we've prepared everything, but I feel even more sorry for and indebted to my sister-in-law."
These words made Chen Qiaoyun feel somewhat guilty. The family hadn't separated yet, and she had only been married into the family for two years. To say that she didn't have any thoughts about Mo Yuan's current success would be a lie.
It's clear that after hearing Mo Yuan's words, Chen Qiaoyun suddenly realized that the brothers had a very good relationship, and Mo Yuan would definitely not treat her and her husband unfairly.
As expected, Mo Yuan took out some money, exchanged a glance with Lin Xue, and then put it all on the table.
"Father, Mother, Elder Brother, Elder Sister-in-law, logically speaking, we haven't separated the family yet, so it's not right for me to spend so much of this money myself, but it's all for marrying Lin Xue. Hehe, please bear with me! Lin Xue and I have discussed it, and now that we're married, we don't really need all this money left, so we'll hand it all over to the family. Also, my elder brother will be helping out with that pan-fried dumpling business in a few days, and once you're familiar with it, I'll hand it all over to you, and I won't have to worry about it anymore!"
After hearing this, Chen Qiaoyun dared not say anything more. "No way! You earned this money yourself. The pan-fried bun business looks like it's going to make money. Your brother and I didn't do anything. How can we interfere? At most, we'll help you out. You can just pay us a salary like Gouzi does!"
Mo Yuan knew his sister-in-law meant well, but he didn't plan to do this for the rest of his life. It wouldn't be right to leave the money unearned; this kind of work suited his reliable older brother perfectly.
I'll have other things to do in the future. I just had a brief discussion with Lin Xue inside.
Lin Xue didn't understand anything and said she would listen to Mo Yuan in everything. Anyway, she felt that Mo Yuan was quite decisive, and she would let him make the decisions!
For a moment, Mo Yuan and his elder brother and sister-in-law were at an impasse, until Mo Youshan finally broke it up.
"Alright, stop arguing. Let's do as the third brother says. He's become more sensible lately and is putting his mind to the right things. He must have his reasons for doing this, so let's listen to him. As for the money, it's from the eldest brother's family. Here's a hundred yuan. Buy whatever you want. Consider it compensation. Your mother and I will keep the rest and save it. Mo Yuan is right. Our lives are getting better and better. We'll save it to build a house!"
As for the future, now that you two are married, although we won't separate the family, we should still keep the accounts straight. You two brothers can split the business equally. Whenever Mo Yuan withdraws from the business, it will all belong to the eldest brother. However, if Mo Yuan does anything else and earns any money, it's all his, and he doesn't have to hand it over to the family! What do you think, eldest brother?"
What they said was quite reasonable and well-founded. The eldest brother, Mo Gang, shook his head, and Chen Qiaoyun also waved her hands repeatedly.
"That won't do, we're taking advantage of too much!"
Yu Xiue slammed her hand on the table. "Alright, that's enough. Pack up and go back to your room to rest!"
This family division ceremony, which wasn't really a formal separation ceremony, is finally over.
Everyone felt they had benefited from the situation. Chen Qiaoyun hadn't expected Mo Yuan to be so generous, giving them so much.
She's tried those pan-fried buns; it must be a good business opportunity!
Mo Yuan was actually willing to help them make money, which made them secretly pleased. They hadn't expected that they had agreed to this marriage because they thought Mo Gang was honest and kind.
They didn't ask for anything, but now their suffering has turned into happiness, and they've turned misfortune into blessing!
Things will definitely get better from now on.
Back in her room, Chen Qiaoyun couldn't help but look at Mo Gang with a seductive gaze, finding him even more pleasing to the eye.
Tonight, I'm in a good mood, so I'll put in some effort and take good care of him.
It's about time we had a baby; people are already gossiping!
Then it occurred to me that Mo Yuan and Lin Xue were also having their wedding night tonight.
That's bound to cause a ruckus, I couldn't help but chuckle.
Tonight, sleepless nights are inevitable at home!
