"Mom, I...I..."

Su Haibin called me twice but I didn't say anything. Just when Xu Guixiang was getting anxious, he suddenly started grinning foolishly.

"You are such a fool, what are you doing there? If you have anything to say, hurry up and say it. I am waiting to go to bed and I don't have time to waste with you."

Xu Guixiang wiped her feet with a towel and rolled her eyes at Su Haibin.

She was a little puzzled. Her son was always quick-witted. What was wrong with him today?

After Su Haibin finished laughing, he tried hard to adjust his facial expression, trying to make it look as serious as possible.

"Mom, I want to tell you that I..." Su Haibin patted his chest, "I found a daughter-in-law for you."

"What?"

Xu Guixiang was just about to take the foot washing water outside to pour it out, but when she heard Su Haibin's words, she was stunned.

She thought she had heard wrongly, so she stood there holding the foot washing water and asked hurriedly.

"I said I found a daughter-in-law for you, are you happy?" Xu Guixiang's face suddenly showed an exaggerated expression.

Seeing that his mother was surprised by his words, Su Haibin's face flashed with pride.

"You...won't you take it easy? Your brother just got married. Don't you know what's going on in our family? Why are you getting married so quickly?"

Now it was Su Haibin's turn to be stunned. He thought Xu Guixiang would be very happy to hear that he had a girlfriend, and he was ready to listen to her jokingly praising him.

I didn't expect her to react like this. There was even a hint of blame in her tone.

He immediately got anxious, "Mom, why don't I talk about it? I'll be 20 in three months. Isn't it normal to have a girlfriend? How can it be fast? Guys my age will become fathers soon, and you actually think I'm finding a girlfriend too quickly. Are you my new mother?"

Seeing her son getting anxious, Xu Guixiang realized that what she had just said was a little inconsiderate and did not take his feelings into consideration.

"Haibin, I don't mean that. I mean your brother just got married, and all the money for the wedding was paid by your sister. You know the situation in our family. Your father and I can't even come up with 30 yuan even if we empty our pockets.

You must have to spend money to find a wife, right? Why would someone agree to marry you without money? But... we can't afford it, so isn't this just a waste of time?

How about you wait a little longer, wait a year or so, your dad and I will find a way to save some money, then you can look for it?"

Su Haibin then understood why his mother was burdened with money, and he immediately laughed.

"Mom, don't worry about the money. We said we don't want any money. We don't want a penny."

"What? Is there such a thing? Haibin, you don't have a fever, do you?"

Xu Guixiang stared at her son with her eyes wide open, not believing at all what he had just said.

"Mom, look at you. Just now I told you that I found a daughter-in-law for you, and you said you had no money. Now I tell you that she doesn't want money, but you don't believe me."

When Su Haibin said this, he realized that Xu Guixiang was still holding the basin of water for washing feet, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Come on, give me the basin of water, I will pour it for you. Aren't you tired of carrying it like this?"

As Su Haibin spoke, he took the basin of foot-washing water from Xu Guixiang, walked to the yard, and splashed it on the ground with a splash.

He turned around and went back into the house and sat down opposite Xu Guixiang.

"Mom, the daughter-in-law I found for you is an orphan, and she has a younger brother who is about the same age as Sangou..."

"Ah, an orphan? Isn't that very pitiful? Which village is he from?"

"Mom, she is from our town. They live together now. Her mom died of hemorrhage after giving birth to her brother. Her dad left two years ago. Her grandparents are long gone. Now her uncle's family always bullies them.

Recently, a cousin of her uncle's family was getting married. His uncle's house was not big enough for them, so he wanted her to give up one of their rooms.

Their house has three main rooms and a kitchen. In addition to the main room, there are two bedrooms. They and their brother each have one..."

"How can we give them up? They are a brother and sister who just happened to be staying here. Why should we give them up to a stranger? If we don't want to, then we won't." Xu Guixiang was very upset.

"How could anyone bully someone like that? It's too much. They no longer have their parents. It's so pitiful. As a child, the uncle not only doesn't help the siblings live their lives, why does he bully them?"

Isn't there anyone who can take care of things? Let her go and ask the person in charge for justice.

Xu Guixiang is a very sympathetic person. Although her life is not very good, she still can't stand hearing others suffer.

"She looked for one, and at first they took care of it, but her uncle relied on having several sons and acted arrogantly in the town.

He acted arrogantly with the manager, saying that this was their family affair and asked him to mind his own business. The manager was so humiliated that he had nothing to say.

As the saying goes, even an honest official cannot settle family affairs. If he says this is a family affair, there is nothing wrong with that. So now the person in charge can no longer manage it. "

"What should we do? Let them bully us like this. With his uncle's character, the son he gave birth to won't be any good. If we let him live here, it will be difficult to get rid of him.

When that girl's brother grows up, it won't be so easy to get him back. "

"Who said no? So she came to me and said she wanted to get married and asked me to live with her..."

"You're going to be her son-in-law?" Xu Guixiang suddenly exclaimed and shook her head at Su Haibin.

"That won't do, absolutely not. If you do it, people will laugh at your father and me. No matter how poor we are, it will be too embarrassing to tell others if we don't do it. No, no." Xu Guixiang shook her head like a wave drum.

"Mom, you misunderstood. Please listen to me. She didn't let me be her son-in-law. She just let me live in their house for a few years and occupy the house first. When her brother grows up and wants to get married, we will vacate the house for him and then move back."

Li Dani thought about it for a while and felt that it was not appropriate.

"Didn't you say her uncle has several sons? If you go to their house, it will be very troublesome for them. They will definitely come to your house from time to time to cause trouble for you.

You said you were going to let someone bully you and cause you trouble, how are you and your father going to survive?"

After listening to Xu Guixiang's words, Su Haibin fell silent.

He had thought about this problem, but it was impossible. If he faced the father and son alone, he would definitely not be a match for them.

But if he doesn't agree to marry her, the girl will say that she will find a matchmaker to introduce her to a man, and she will get married immediately as long as the man is willing.

No matter what, she must keep the house left by her parents for her brother and never let it fall into the hands of others.
