Mother Liu was choked by her daughter's words and was unable to recover for a long time. Then she suddenly remembered what Liu Zhi had just whispered to her.

She glanced at the large vat in the corner. Now that the evidence was right there, she decided not to pretend anymore.

"Liu Ye, I just heard from Liu Zhi that when she was playing hide-and-seek, she saw that your noodle jar was full of white rice and white flour, and there were eggs and brown sugar in the kitchen cabinet. You are obviously living such a good life, why do you have to cry about your poverty in front of me and your father?"

Liu Ye sneered when he heard this, "What do you mean Liu Ye is playing hide-and-seek? I think you are instigating me, right?"

Mother Liu smiled and said, "I was asking you a question, why are you asking me again?"

Liu Ye now looked down upon her mother more and more, and she rolled her eyes at her mother.

"Mom, I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful. You actually asked Liuzhi to run to the kitchen to secretly help you check our daily diet.

What's wrong with putting two bags of rice and flour in the jar? What's wrong with my aunt buying them from the city to show her filial piety to her parents?

You don't really believe what San Gou said, do you? Do you think we only eat white flour steamed buns and rice every day? "

"Are you saying that San Gou is lying?"

Liu's mother was not stupid either, and it was unlikely that Liu Ye could fool her with just a few words.

"Sangou didn't lie. He is the youngest in the family, so his parents-in-law naturally favor him. And his sister-in-law comes back often, so the rice and flour are basically left for them. We only eat a little when someone comes to visit."

Liu's mother was powerless to refute this explanation.

She curled her lips and said, "I can't interfere in your family affairs. But you can't take less when your brother gets married, otherwise others will laugh at us."

Liu Ye did not say anything else. These days, if there is a happy event in someone's family in the village, if the relationship is ordinary, just give one yuan as a token of your appreciation, and if the relationship is good, you can give at most two yuan.

It's good enough for a close relative to get five dollars, but it would be the best if he could get a big reunion ticket.

As for how much she gets, she has no say on it. It all depends on her parents-in-law. She will never think anything is too little.

As she said, her parents-in-law had already done her the greatest favor by allowing her to stay, and she didn't dare to expect too much.

She could marry Su Haiyang, have enough food and warm clothes every day, and her parents-in-law would treat her no differently from their own relatives.

The family is harmonious, and she feels that this kind of life is happy and stable, and it is her ideal life.

So she didn't dare to act like a demon. If she did, she would be finished.

When Liu's mother saw that Liu Ye stopped talking, she thought that Liu Ye had heard her, so she turned around and went back to the main room.

They sat for a while, and thinking that they had to go to work, Father and Mother Liu stood up and said goodbye.

After the family sent the four of them off to the front door, Mother Liu was still a little worried about the gift money.

Yu Dong shouted to Liu Ye, "Liu Ye, don't let your parents-in-law see you off. Just see us off. We haven't seen each other for such a long time. I have two words to tell you."

When Xu Guixiang heard that the mother and daughter were going to have a private conversation, she and Su Weiguo stopped walking.

"Well, dear, take care. We won't see you off. Let Liu Ye see you off."

Father and Mother Liu nodded goodbye again, and then they walked towards the village.

"Liu Ye, did you listen to what I said to you?" Liu's mother asked again worriedly.

Liu Ye said nothing and continued walking forward silently. She was already very upset at this moment.

When her mother asked her to see them off, she had already guessed their intention.

"Liu Ye, your mother was talking to you, didn't you hear her?" Liu Facai's unhappy voice rang out.

"Mom, didn't I just tell you that as a daughter-in-law, how can I do this? My parents-in-law decide how much I take. I don't have a say in the family."

Mother Liu stopped and poked Liu Ye on the forehead with her hand.

"You are so quiet. When other girls get married, they send gifts to their parents' home every few days. But you are different. After you get married, you can't even see your shadow. If we don't come, do you plan to never go back?"

When Liu's mother saw that Liu Ye still said that, she became very angry.

When they received the 500 yuan betrothal gift from the Su family twice, they were secretly happy.

They felt that raising this daughter was worth it, so they exchanged one daughter for a daughter-in-law.

But once they got the money, they forgot about it and wanted more.

Now that she sees that her daughter is on the same side as her husband's family and doesn't take her parents' family seriously at all, she feels that she has failed to raise this daughter.

It is working time now, and every household is carrying their farm tools and heading towards the village.

Mother Liu's actions attracted several strange looks, and Liu Ye really couldn't help it.

She blushed and retorted, "I remember when my mother was alive, I never saw you bring anything good to her. Oh, by the way, when my uncle got married, you seemed to have brought back fifty cents and took us brothers and sisters out for a big meal."

"You...you you..." Mother Liu pointed at Liu Ye angrily.

"You know what kind of life we ​​lived at that time. We couldn't even afford to eat, so how could we have the money to help your grandmother's family..."

"Liu Ye, what nonsense are you talking about? Now that you're married, you've grown independent and have even learned to talk back." Liu's father also scolded.

Liu Ye was afraid that if she started shouting, people would laugh at her. Her mother was mumbling behind her, so she pretended not to hear and let her talk.

After sending them to the village, Liu Ye stopped and said, "Dad, Mom, you guys go back. I won't send you off. I have to go to work later."

Liu Facai turned his head and said to Liu Ye, "You can't just listen to your parents-in-law about how much gift money your brother takes when he gets married. He is your brother by blood, and even if they don't allow you to take one, you should at least take fifty yuan."

"What? Five...ten?"

Liu Ye was frightened by this number and her mouth opened wide in shock.

Just as she was about to say how dare you open your mouth, Liu Facai didn't even give her a chance to speak.

"You don't have to borrow money from me anymore. This is the only time your brother will get married in his lifetime. If you still want to recognize this family, then bring fifty yuan back to attend the wedding banquet in two days. Otherwise, you'd better not go back. Your mother and I can't afford to lose this man."

Liu Ye looked at her father. She really wanted to ask him if he could give her five dollars now. He opened his mouth and asked others to give him fifty dollars. Would the money just blow in like the wind?

They really think of her as a cash cow, but it's a pity that she can't be their cash cow forever.

Liu Ye wanted to tell them directly that she would not go.

But she knew her father's temper, and he acted like a fool from the beginning.

If there is a commotion in the village, she will be embarrassed.

I endured it again and again, and finally swallowed the words.
