Otherwise, the old man’s fortune would be wasted by a few naughty kids.
Until now, not only has he achieved nothing, but he is also always thinking about the things in her hands.
She didn't even think about it. The old man had been dead for several years, and she hadn't been up the mountain in the following years due to poor health. Plus the family's expenses over the years, how much could she save?
Of the few dollars I have left, the fourth son is still unmarried. By the time the fourth son gets married, I guess there will be nothing left.
Fortunately, Chen Xiangzhi paid for building a house for his daughter, otherwise, she would have thought of asking his second uncle to borrow some money to help.
Thinking of this, Mrs. An suddenly reacted and hurriedly asked An Hongdou, "Hongdou, tell me the truth, was it Chen Xiangzhi who paid the money? Or did you pay it yourself?"
I don't know what happened these days, this girl relied on her great strength to actually dare to go into the mountains. Now, she has even established a relationship with Er Gouzi and is going directly to the black market.
Old Mrs. An was full of sorrow.
I'm happy that my daughter is capable, but I'm also worried that she's too bold and might end up hurting herself.
"That money was really paid by Chen Xiangzhi, but I also made a small profit today, I'll give it to mom." An Hongdou didn't say how much she earned because she didn't plan to hand it all over.
In the end, she was judging others by her own mean standards.
Old lady An actually stopped her and said, "Don't go and take it. I don't want your money. You will have to live on your own after you get married. I don't ask you how much money you make, but I just want you to not go into the mountains again or go to the black market. Our family is not yet at the point where we can't have enough food. There's no need to gamble with your safety!"
Even when the old man got this connection, there were too many children in the family to feed, and then one by one they got married and had children, so there were really a lot of places to spend money.
Otherwise, she couldn't let him take the risk.
When asked not to go into the mountains, An Hongdou said perfunctorily: "Mom, don't worry, I know my limits and will never put myself in danger. Besides, isn't it okay for me not to go into the mountains in the future? I can still get something outside the mountains."
In fact, with her wood-related abilities, she can easily control the entire mountain.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady An knew that she could not persuade this stubborn girl.
"You have been a disobedient child since childhood. Mom doesn't have any other requirements. You...just have to be careful." Mrs. An said helplessly.
An Hongdou reached out and hugged her, and asked tentatively, "Mom, I went to the black market to find Er Gouzi to cooperate with me, but I didn't bring my brothers with me. Will you blame me?"
Although, she had her own considerations in mind.
Mrs. An was more open-minded. "Why should I blame you? If one of your brothers was capable, your father might not have died so early!"
Although he died of illness, it was ultimately due to overwork that harmed his body.
If you think about it carefully, you can't blame the son for being incompetent.
After thinking for a while, Mrs. An continued, "Actually, your brothers are all good, but they married the wrong wives. Your eldest sister-in-law is always making trouble, as if the whole world owes her money. And your second sister-in-law, although she is quiet, is actually more thoughtful than anyone else. Although she doesn't take the lead in family affairs, she often makes trouble behind the scenes. Your third sister-in-law is also a big mouth and can't hide anything. You are right not to let your family know. No matter how good your brothers are, they are family with their wives and children after all. They sleep in the same bed all day long, and it is impossible for them to keep quiet. You should keep your affairs well hidden, and don't let anyone in the family know. When cooperating with outsiders, you only need to talk about interests, but when cooperating with family members, you can't avoid talking about feelings. But things often become complicated when talking about feelings. At that time, who gets more and who gets less, who contributes more and who contributes less, it will all be a problem!"
An Hongdou didn't expect that Mrs. An could see things so clearly. At the same time, she felt warm in her heart, "Mom, you are so kind."
This sentence absolutely comes from the heart.
Mrs. An smiled and said, "Mom doesn't want to see you and your sister quarrel over money in the future. If you really feel bad about it, when you are living a good life in the future, you can help them more if you see them having a hard time."
The next morning, everyone in the family went to work again.
An Hongdou originally wanted to go into the mountain again to deliver the things she had promised to the old lady, and also make some money on the black market.
Even though she told Er Gouzi that she didn't care about money, in fact, she had been poor since she was a child, and she hated the feeling of being poor the most.
But before she could do so, she saw her second uncle's grandson coming over and calling her, "Aunt Hongdou, my grandfather wants you to come over."
"Oh, I see." An Hongdou replied.
The plan to go up the mountain was cancelled, and An Hongdou went to Andelai's house.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Andelai sitting in the yard, smoking a pipe, making the surroundings full of smoke.
"Second Uncle, what do you want me to do?" An Hongdou picked up a bench and sat in front of him, a little further away to ensure that the smoke would not reach her.
Andelai put down the old pipe in his hand. I don't know if it was caused by smoking, but he coughed twice. Then he said: "Hongdou, you are an adult now that you are married. Do you have any plans for your future life?"
An Hongdou was a little confused and shook her head honestly, "I haven't thought about it yet."
In fact, she had thought about it a thousand times.
She has special abilities and martial arts, so naturally, it is most suitable for her to live in the mountains and make a fortune quietly.
But she didn't dare say this in front of her uncle, who was the team leader.
An Hongdou's words made An Delai feel upset. He said unhappily, "You may as well start thinking about it. You are already an adult. As the saying goes, a married woman is like spilled water. It's not good to always let your mother and your brothers support you, right?"
Andelai also has a daughter who is the same age as An Hongdou, but she has been working and earning work points with An Hongdou for a long time.
He felt terrible having a niece like An Hongdou who was lazy and greedy.
But he couldn't resist the pampering of his elder brother and sister-in-law, and as an uncle he had nothing to say.
But there are many rumors in the village now. They say that An Hongdou is so lazy that she has not done any work even after getting the marriage certificate. It is possible that if she has children in the future, they will have to rely on her parents' support to live.
These words really gave him a headache, so he went to find An Hongdou to give her a lesson.
After hearing what An Delai said, An Hongdou finally understood, "Second Uncle, if you want me to go to work, just tell me directly. You're beating around the bush like this. I can't even react."
Now that we are in this era, we can’t help but follow the crowd.
She also didn't think about continuing to be lazy and do nothing. It's just that she has been busy these days and hasn't freed up her hands yet!
