Chapter 146: Live a good life together



Just as he was thinking this, Gu Erzhu, who was following closely behind him, spoke out what was in his heart.

"Dad, although what my eldest brother said is right, as sons we should really love mom and be filial to her. But, the money we worked so hard to earn is really hard to spend..."

Hearing his second son say this, Gu Yanzhang patiently asked, "Erzhu, then tell me now what you really think?"

Gu Erzhu replied seriously, "Dad, I really think there is no need to buy these snacks. The snacks in the city are very expensive. How can ordinary people afford them? Except for those very wealthy families who eat snacks every two or three days, ordinary people only buy a little bit during festivals. They don't buy them for themselves, but use them to show favors."

"Dad, don't think that just because my eldest brother and I have married, our life at home will be easy. Grandpa has told me many times that our family still needs to make preparations for the third and fourth brothers! After all, in a few years, they will be fifteen or sixteen years old. If a man doesn't get married at this age, he will be a bachelor after this period.

" After saying this, Gu Erzhu continued to talk nonstop, "Dad, let me tell you, we have two daughters in our family! When the fifth and sixth sisters get married, we have to prepare a dowry for them, right? Otherwise, what if they get bullied by the men after they marry into the man's family?"

Gu Yanzhang frowned subconsciously when he heard his son say this. He

actually knew in his heart that the future marriages of the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth sons would cost a lot of money.

However, he just bought a few kilograms of snacks for his wife and wanted to have a good life for a few days. It was not a big mistake.

Gu Dazhu, who was standing by, noticed that the old man's face changed color, his lips were tightly pursed, and his brows were wrinkled. He thought about it and suddenly opened his mouth and began to smooth things over.

"Second brother, it's too early to talk about these things!"

"No matter what, our family's life is getting better and better. In the future, our life will definitely be more and more prosperous. Look at the wife I married, her family used to be a famous family. How could a family like hers like people like us in the past? A few years ago, I was still worried whether our family could survive, but now, I have found such a good wife..."

"Second brother, the world is ever-changing. Don't worry too much..."

Gu Erzhu felt particularly upset when he heard his eldest brother say this.

After seeing his wife embarrass him yesterday, he realized that he was not as smart as his eldest brother in marrying a wife.

Look at the eldest brother's face, he is really showing off, and it is written all over his face that he has taken advantage of him.

Gu Erzhu tossed and turned in bed last night and could not fall asleep. He thought about it seriously and felt that his eldest brother had indeed taken advantage of a lot by marrying a daughter-in-law like that. At least the money he paid for the bride price was recovered.

Moreover, in terms of face, he had raised a lot.

When he was choosing a wife, it seemed that he really had never thought of marrying a woman like Jiang.

He thought that if Jiang married him, he would not be able to resist.

He had carefully inquired about Jiang, Ma, and seven or eight other girls, and had also looked at them face to face.

He picked and chose, and finally found Ma, who seemed to be obedient, sensible, hardworking and down-to-earth.

When he saw Ma, he instinctively felt that this woman was easy to control, obedient, and not so famous.

Because when he first met her, Ma was beaten by her parents and brothers...

Thinking of the reason why he married that woman in the first place, Gu Erzhu frowned quickly and said to Gu Dazhu in a bad mood, "Brother, please don't talk about marrying a wife, okay?" After saying

this angrily, he couldn't help but complain to his father, "Dad, I really didn't expect that the Ma family would be so unrefined!"

"If I had known the situation in their family was like that, I would not have married her. I have to go back to her parents' home the day after tomorrow, and I don't know how they will open their mouths. After all, their family is so poor! If I take that woman back to her parents' home, those people will definitely shamelessly ask me to borrow money or food or something..."

Gu Yanzhang heard this and immediately retorted to him.

"Didn't you choose this daughter-in-law yourself?"

"I reminded you at that time to take a good look at her and ask more about her, but you said no, no, you thought the one with the surname Ma was okay. Moreover, you also said that marrying a wife is just like that, you just cover yourself with the quilt..."

After saying these words, Gu Yanzhang's anger grew more and more intense.

"Erzhu, don't talk about all these nonsense now. Since you have married your wife, you should treat her seriously and don't think about those nonsense."

"Husband and wife should live together. That girl is also a miserable person. You should treat her well, don't hit her, and don't scold her..."

Hearing his father say this, Gu Erzhu, who had been unbalanced in his heart for a long time, curled his lips secretly.

His wife's face is not bad.

At first, he just thought she was a little dark.

After they were officially married and slept in the same bed, he found that Ma actually had a particularly obvious flaw, that is, she had lost several teeth.

Her teeth were also particularly uneven.

It can be said that his wife would be ugly as long as she opened her mouth.

Much worse than the wife that his elder brother married! !

Thinking of his elder brother's wife's teeth, which were not as dark and yellow as his wife's, Gu Erzhu suddenly took a deep breath and nodded helplessly, "Dad, I remember everything you said..."

Feeling that after he married his elder brother, his elder brother began to target him again and again, and there was always a hint of hostility in his words, Gu Erzhu, who was not stupid at heart, could not help but look at his elder brother seriously.

He wondered in his heart, what was wrong with him.

Before he could figure it out, the three of them, along with the donkey cart, returned home unknowingly.

After arriving home, Gu Yanzhang immediately gave all the snacks and fruits he bought to Chen Xuanxuan.

"Wife, wife, are you asleep? I bought you some things, take a look?"

Hearing her husband's happy voice, Chen Xuanxuan, who was already asleep at this time, got out of bed.
