When she found something else inside, a red elastic headband and a very delicate and beautiful round fan, Huang immediately exclaimed in excitement.
"Aunt Hui, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! Your mother-in-law is so rich..."
Thinking of the fact that the mother of her daughter's mother-in-law had a close relationship with the man in the government office, Huang said with a look of relief, "Aunt Hui, we really didn't make a mistake this time!"
After saying this, Huang laughed proudly.
Thinking of the fact that the daughter had been engaged when she was young, but the man's family later disliked the Jiang family for being worse and worse, they thought of a way to secretly find the Jiang family and postpone the marriage.
A few years ago, Huang was still wondering if her daughter could find a good family to marry in the future?
Now, although the family that the daughter-in-law married into is of a lower status, according to the current situation, the Gu family is definitely wealthy!
Thinking of the news about the Gu family that she heard from matchmaker Yuan yesterday, Huang hesitated for a moment, and deliberately said to Jiang Huigu in front of her daughters-in-law with a serious face, "Huigu, yesterday, Aunt Yuan came to tell me that the Gu family is now very rich. It is richer than some of the wealthy families in Tongzhen."
Noticing the hesitation on the faces of several daughters-in-law, Huang deliberately exaggerated to give her daughter-in-law face, "My daughter, I heard that the Gu family now has more than 100 mu of fertile land. Those fields are planted with glutinous rice, rapeseed, and soybeans every year. Moreover, the Gu family not only raises 12 fat pigs, but also some ducks. "
Feeling the surprise, hesitation, and envy in the eyes of several daughters-in-law, Huang suddenly said loudly, "Oh, by the way, I also heard that your husband's family has been doing small business. Your father-in-law and his husband are selling buns, pickled cabbage, and tofu in the county town."
"And I also heard that your mother-in-law is a very good cook and has many apprentices. The apprentices have to pay 500 coins every year just to learn the skills!"
Suddenly hearing these words, Jiang Huigu's smart and capable sisters-in-law had to force their smiles on their faces.
So the Gu family is so rich?
If they had known that his family was so rich, they should have asked the matchmaker to find the girls from their mother's family to the Gu family.
How could they let their sister-in-law and the poor Ma family have such a good thing?
When they thought of this, they regretted it in their hearts.
While these people were thinking about their own things, Gu Erzhu, who was driving a donkey cart, was on the road, admonishing his wife Ma Daya.
"Ma Daya, I'm going to say something in advance today. When we get to your mother's house, you have to listen to me in everything. You have to follow my instructions. You can't speak when I don't speak. When you want to speak, you have to get my permission. Otherwise, you'll see how I'll beat you when I get home."
"I tell you, I've always had a bad temper. If you don't listen to me and make me angry, I'll divorce you and let you live with your brothers and sisters from your mother's family for the rest of your life..."
Ma Daya saw him and seemed to be serious. She opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded with a sad heart.
After nodding, she hesitated for a moment, then took out the purse she treasured in her bosom.
"Boss, this is the day before yesterday...my mother gave me as a meeting gift. Can I leave it here with you first?"
Gu Erzhu heard this, pulled a long face, and rudely snatched the purse from her and stuffed it into his chest.
"What do you mean by put it with me first? Let me tell you! All your things are mine, and mine are still mine."
"In our family, I am the pillar, and I have the talent of a housekeeper. Whatever you can do or want to do, you must get my permission. Especially these properties, you have to hand them over to me. Otherwise, do you think you can save money?"
After saying these words, Gu Erzhu immediately thought of his mother in his family who only knew how to eat and enjoy, did not know how to work, and did not know that as a woman, she should abide by the rules of working diligently and be an honest person!
Thinking that his mother was becoming more and more like what his grandfather said, a wasteful old woman who did nothing, Gu Erzhu could not help but vent his anger on Ma Daya.
"Da Ya, although you are a few years older than me, as your husband, you'd better listen to what I say."
"Although I am not well-educated and have never read books, I still understand some truths."
"In our house, you'd better stay away from my mother, and don't learn from her! To be honest, sometimes I really think that my grandfather is right. My mother is not a good person. Look at our place, is there any woman like her? She is so particular about eating. She has to eat oily and salty dishes every day, and glutinous rice every meal. In the evening, she has to eat expensive snacks. ... That's my confused one. "My father is willing to get used to her! Ma Daya, I'm going to say this today. If you give me several sons in the future, you think you can be noble just because of your sons, eat and drink well every day, and do nothing... Haha, it's impossible!"
Ma Daya saw her husband talking about his mother with saliva flying and was particularly excited. She immediately understood that her husband still had a lot of opinions about her mother-in-law.
Thinking of her mother-in-law's gentle face, her soft voice when speaking, and how she always looked at her with loving care, and how she always left a big bowl of porridge for her during meals, Ma Daya hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss,...you are right."
Noticing that Gu Erzhu's face suddenly brightened up, Ma Daya thought to herself, no wonder her father-in-law always liked to say this when talking to her mother-in-law.
However, when she thought of her purpose, Ma Daya suddenly changed the subject and said, "But, boss, I have a question in my heart. I think I have to discuss it with you..."
Gu Erzhu was so flattered by her that he suddenly said angrily in a calm mood, "If you have something to say, say it now!"
Ma Daya quickly said, "Boss, you say,...if the eldest brother and sister-in-law always go around in front of our parents, then after a long time, will our parents think that the eldest brother and sister-in-law are the most filial, and the two of us have become unfilial people?"
"What's more, what the eldest sister-in-law says is especially nice. It's only been a few days, and my sister-in-law has fooled our mother-in-law around. And the eldest brother, he has fooled our father around..."
