Wu Zhiqiu: "That's not normal. He has a child now, and Dong Yun doesn't work. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a large sum of money all of a sudden?"
Mancang snorted softly, "Even if I die of poverty, I won't go after my parents. If we don't buy land in the village now and my parents are relocated, I will worry about it. I feel that I am not worthy of being a human being."
Wu Zhiqiu smiled. They had lived a good life in their previous life, and Mancang and the others had lived an average life too. When they were relocated, the old man asked them to go back and discuss it, but Mancang did not go back.
Mantun provides the old couple with support in their old age, so the house and land should belong to Mantun, regardless of their value.
"People are different. It doesn't matter if you care about it. It's up to us whether we give it or not."
"The more you think about it, the less you give it to me. I'm just old, and I have this family fortune. Can't I spend it myself? If I give it all to them, what am I earning this for? We'll spend it tomorrow and spend it to death." Mancang was very angry.
Wu Zhiqiu laughed and said, "How can I spend my money even if I die?"
Mancang laughed. If he didn't go whoring or gamble, why would he spend his money like that? "Do you think there's any trouble at Mantun's house?"
"You haven't even come to cry at your own grave, and yet you have the heart to cry at a mass grave?" Wu Zhiqiu said calmly.
"Hehe, aren't I a genius? None of those daughters-in-law are easy to deal with," Mancang laughed.
Wu Zhiqiu was speechless. "Your daughter-in-law is a fuel-efficient lamp. She laughs at half a catty and makes fun of eight ounces."
"Our family is different. The second and third children can't think about ours. The second child is like me. He won't think about his parents whether he has something or not. The third child is rich now and has dignity. We just don't let him suffer any loss.
The second and third brothers can still help us deal with the eldest brother and his wife. Hehe, the situation is under control, and it's almost the same as a full-scale counterattack. I don't know if they can withstand it."
When Mancang thought about it this way, he was no longer angry, and even felt a little gloating.
Wu Zhiqiu... "You are still analyzing it, but no matter how powerful Liu Cuihua is, she can't beat four daughters-in-law."
"Yeah, our family is pretty good. If my mom takes action, no one else will be able to stop her. I guess my mom can't do anything about it."
There was a layer of ash at the bottom of their own pot, but the couple lay on the kang and worried about others.
At this moment, the old man and the old lady were also sitting on the kang and talking about these things.
The old man puffed on his pipe.
The old lady said, "The eldest brother said that the village is going to be relocated. If it really is going to be relocated, what are we going to do with the second brother?"
The old man said: "Just give us what's ours, what else can we do? If the second son takes care of us in our old age, then all of it will be his. Now that we have been living in the city for these years, the eldest son has been taking care of us. We certainly can't give all the things in the house to the second son, even if they are worthless."
"The food-ration land is still being discussed. Our land is worth whatever price we want. If the house is not tidied, the second son's family will have many children and there will be trouble. If we get involved, there will be even more trouble." The old lady was also old and didn't want to cause trouble.
"Whether we want them or not, they will make a fuss. The house was built with Xiaobai's money. It was built for the sake of the old family. It's good enough that the eldest son doesn't give up. We can give it all to them. The second son has lived well in the past few years and is not dying. Let's not worry about them. Let them make a fuss if they want. We will pretend not to see it." The old man tapped his pipe.
"A tiger cannot stand up to a pack of wolves, and the second daughter-in-law cannot fight four hands with her two fists. The four daughters-in-law are not easy to deal with, and they all want to fight. I'm afraid the second daughter-in-law can't stand it." The old lady felt quite sympathetic towards Liu Cuihua.
The old man said: "What's there to argue about? Why argue with them? Whose money is it? Who has the final say? You haven't even reached the stage of old age yet, but you've already given up your family fortune and moved in with your son. In the future, you'll be despised like a stray dog. Isn't that like a firecracker going up the mountain, a country bumpkin?"
