Chapter 39: The Best (1/2)



"Ah, it's so expensive! We don't have that kind of luck," Old Lady Zhao said with a forced smile. "By the way, why did mother suddenly come here with my sister-in-law and nephews? We haven't even told you why. You keep talking about all this nonsense."

Old Lady Liu was stunned and said, "What I just said is a serious matter. This matter of marriage is a serious matter of the utmost importance."

"It's a pity that our eldest and second pillars already have lovers, right?"

Old Mrs. Zhao has learned her lesson this time.

Dazhuzi and Erzhuzi nodded quickly, yes, yes...

"Hey, there's nothing like the ones at home here..."

"Our Zhuzi loves the outside, right?"

“Yes, yes, yes…”

"Chunxi, you risked your lives to build this tile house, how could you let outsiders take advantage of it?"

"Why do you call it a bargain for outsiders? Whoever enters this door in the future will be a member of our Zhao family, right?"

"This cousin is like a half-daughter, a close relationship."

"I don't like this. If Zhuzi likes it, I'll accept it even if he brings back a sow. If Zhuzi doesn't like it, we don't want a fairy either."

The two sides went back and forth, arguing bitterly. Old Mrs. Liu and her two daughters-in-law saw that the Zhao family was not willing to listen.

Old Lady Liu finally lost her temper and said directly, "Chunxi, you are my daughter. Let's not talk nonsense anymore. I came here this time, first, to see if you are doing well, second, I plan to let Xi'er marry in and take care of you for me, and third, I have always liked Taohua. I heard that Taohua was divorced, so I came here in a hurry. I plan to let her marry to Shanghe Village to keep me company. Don't worry, she is my own granddaughter, how can I treat her badly?"

After these words were spoken, everyone in the Zhao family gnashed their teeth.

Old Mrs. Zhao originally wanted to save some face, but now she really can't bear it anymore.

"Mom, this is the Zhao family. It's not your turn to be the boss."

Old Mrs. Zhao's temper reached its peak. "First, whether I'm living a good life or not, you know it now. It's ridiculous. I went over mountains and rivers to borrow money and food, and you didn't even give me a sip of water to drink. What did you say? You said you'd never give birth to me. You kept saying I should pay you back. I accept it. After all, I was your child. You didn't give birth to Zhuzi and Taohua. They all have the surname Zhao, and they have nothing to do with the surname Liu. It's their own decision to marry. Don't talk about parents' orders and matchmaker's words. Your methods of manipulating people are not fair."

Said 䗽.

Zhao Taohua almost clapped her hands.

"you……"

Old Lady Liu slammed the table in anger and stood up. Just as she was about to speak, Old Lady Zhao interrupted, "Are you trying to say that I've become too cocky? Yes, I've become too cocky and can't be softened. If I were to be softened even a little, I'd starve to death."

"Sister, it's been so many years, do you still remember this? We all don't remember it," said the eldest daughter-in-law Gao Shiyu.

Old Mrs. Zhao's eyes were red. "That's right. Don't you remember? It was you who suffered from hunger and cold. Your stomachs were ruptured with hunger. It was not easy to go back to your parents' home. Your sister-in-law's nose is not a nose, and her eyes are not eyes. Whoever is sad will remember it. And you still want to marry your daughter to my family? You are so sincere."

Liu Xier's face changed.

Gao was embarrassed.

The atmosphere became tense after a few exchanges. Seeing that Old Lady Zhao had successfully pushed the tower and had developed an indestructible body, Zhao Taohua withdrew.

"Mom, I'm going to the kitchen to cook first, you two can chat."

"I'll go help."

Zhang Shiyu.

"Aunt, we are guests here, how can I ask you for help?" Zhao Taohua forced Zhang to sit on the stool and went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Old Man Zhao had already hidden the rice, flour, grain and oil and replaced them with the brown rice and wild vegetables he had always had.

"Dad, you've scored really high," Zhao Taohua praised.
