An Hongdou also noticed the atmosphere at the moment, but she also understood that what Lin Cuihua said made sense.
So, An Hongdou took the initiative to break the deadlock, "Mom, brother, I think what sister-in-law said makes sense. I will get up early tomorrow and go to work with you."
"How can that be possible!" Mrs. An objected subconsciously, "You've already got the marriage certificate, and now all you need is a house to live in. You're getting older, and you can't stay at home for many days. How can I let you go to work at this time? We are such a big family, how can we just lack a few work points?"
Whoever gives birth to a child will love him or her dearly. Old lady An only has this one daughter in her life, and she is the apple of her eye.
She also supports her daughter's desire to lose weight, and going out for a run is something her daughter wants to do, and it's up to her whether she gets work points or not.
But she felt uncomfortable when she was forced to work.
Besides, going to work is different from running. If you are tired of running, you can take a rest, but once you get to work in the fields, no one cares whether you are tired or not. Everyone works the same way.
Lin Cuihua was originally a little nervous, afraid that her words would anger everyone, but when Old Lady An said this, the anger in her heart was instantly aroused again.
"Mom, what you said is so irrational. I've never seen a family that gives money and effort to build a house for their married daughter when their own son still has no place to live." When Lin Cuihua said this, she instantly remembered the grievances of the past few days and couldn't stop crying. "The fourth child hasn't married yet. He is still your son. As the eldest sister-in-law, I can't stop my younger brother-in-law from getting married. But our family is so poor. Building a house for the sister-in-law would empty the family. Where is mom going to get the money for the fourth child to get married? It will have to be deducted from our food rations. Seeing that Changzheng and Changyue are getting older and older, we don't know when we can have our own house. What's the point of living like this?"
An Hongbing blamed her for being petty and unwilling to buy things for her sister-in-law, but who could understand the pain in her heart?
Not to mention Lin Cuihua, even the two daughters-in-law, Li Xiaomi and Wang Dahua, fell silent when the matter of building a house was mentioned.
When An Honglin saw that there was going to be another quarrel at home, he felt helpless and had a headache.
He took a look at his sister whom he had loved since childhood. He couldn't bear to let An Hongdou get married without even a place to live.
After thinking about it, An Honglin made up his mind and said, "Leave the money to my younger sister to build a house. I won't get married."
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't get married, you will be single for the rest of your life? What will you do when you get old? Will you have to live alone?" Even An Hongbing, the eldest brother, disagreed.
However, the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Cuihua became increasingly unfriendly.
No one else has so many things to do, but she is never satisfied. Even the troubles of her second and third brother's sisters-in-law are caused by her.
For the first time, An Hongbing felt displeased with his wife.
He knew that his family was poor, and he could still earn money even without it.
When it comes to housing issues, they are not the only family in the village.
Everyone has gone through this. With many brothers and sisters and a lot of children in the family, every family has to live in a crowded environment!
Mrs. An was also feeling very uncomfortable.
It is true that she loves her daughter and younger son, but she also does not want to cause discord between her eldest son and his wife because of her favoritism.
Just when she didn't know what to do, An Hongdou said, "You don't have to worry about me. Those who should get married should get married, and those who should make money should make money. I won't take advantage of my family, nor will I use the family's money."
"Hongdou..." Old Mrs. An felt extremely distressed.
An Hongdou held her hand and quietly squeezed it. "Mom, don't worry. Why do you think I went into the mountains yesterday? Although those wild boars were not saved, your daughter has this skill. How can you be afraid that she will be hungry and have no place to live?"
After An Hongdou said this, Lin Cuihua's whole face turned red instantly.
All this made her seem like she was the only one who was stingy.
As for Li Xiaomi, she is like a transparent person. She is usually quiet. The eldest brother is the one in charge, and the third brother is the one who is noisy, but it doesn't prevent her from taking the lead.
On the other hand, Wang Dahua doesn't have so many little thoughts.
When she heard what An Hongdou said, her whole face was almost wrinkled with smile, "Yes, my little sister has this skill, and we can eat meat every day in the future." As she spoke, her voice became much lower, "We can also secretly take the leftover meat to the town to exchange for money, so we don't have to worry about not having money to build a house!"
"No, that won't work." Old Lady An was the first to object. "There's everything in the mountains. You're just a little girl. Even if you were lucky yesterday and got something out, you're not allowed to go into the mountains again."
Their family is not yet at the point where people are starving to death, so there is really no need to risk their lives.
An Hongdou smiled and tried to comfort Old Lady An, "Mom, don't worry, your daughter is not stupid, I will definitely not put myself in any danger."
"That won't work either." Mrs. An was really worried.
"Then how about this? From now on I will just stay outside the mountain and not go deep into the mountains, okay?" An Hongdou acted coquettishly. Although her strong body made her coquettish look weird, old lady An really fell for it.
After instructing her not to go into the mountains again, she finally agreed after An Hongdou's repeated requests.
"Alright, alright, let's go eat. Your second uncle said that everyone in the village has received meat. This is a happy event that you won't see until the New Year. Today, we will give the whole village a day off at noon. Let's have a good rest at home and have a good meal before going back to work in the afternoon."
At the command from Old Lady An, everyone cheered and went to eat.
Lin Cuihua looked at the dispersed crowd, then glanced at her husband who ignored her, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Other families only got pork, but the An family got an extra sheep.
After breakfast, the men talked about their work in the fields in the yard, while the women began to prepare lunch.
Old Mrs. An cut a piece of pork to prepare the vermicelli. After thinking for a while, she took four lamb trotters and a piece of mutton and told her daughters-in-law how to cook them.
Everyone says Wang Dahua is silly, but sometimes, no one can match her cleverness.
Just like now, Wang Dahua said to Mrs. An in a flattering way: "Mom, this meat was brought back by my younger sister. My younger sister and Shen Zhiqing have already obtained the marriage certificate and are already a family. We can't just eat the meat and ignore them, right? You see, how about making an extra bowl and letting my younger sister send it to Shen Zhiqing, so that they can take the opportunity to cultivate their relationship, right?"
Mrs. An immediately looked at Wang Dahua with approval, "You are right."
