"Eldest daughter-in-law, what else are you dissatisfied with?" The old man frowned and looked at his eldest daughter-in-law.
"Dad, since you've already left 560 yuan, including money for the fourth child's wedding, why should we give him a share?"
Two hundred of the eight hundred had to be given to the fourth brother, and the eldest sister-in-law was immediately unhappy.
In this and outside, the fourth brother got double the money from the division of the family property.
More than any of them.
They were the eldest sons in the first wife's family, so they should have gotten the most, but in the end it was the fourth son who got the most.
It's not fair, she disagrees.
"You vicious woman, you want the fourth son to remain single and unable to find a wife, right?"
"You guys have all spent all your money and are getting married. Of course we have to set aside money for the wedding for the fourth child. The betrothal gifts and banquets all require money. When I married you into the family, if I didn't give you betrothal gifts, would you come?"
"Is there any problem with us setting aside the betrothal money, or are you going to give this betrothal money to the fourth child?"
"Logically, we shouldn't be dividing the family now. The fourth child hasn't even started a family yet, but you guys are the ones who are insisting on splitting up the family. Since we're splitting up the family, the fourth child should naturally be included as a share. What's the problem?"
The old lady widened her eyes and stared at her eldest daughter-in-law angrily.
If she doesn't make plans now, where will she get the money when the fourth child gets married and has no money?
These daughters-in-law are more cunning than each other. It's hard to deduct some money from them.
"Then...then you can't leave that much."
"It's not too much at all. My budget for the fourth child's wedding is two hundred yuan, and that's even the lowest estimate. Who knows if there will be another five hundred yuan in betrothal gifts."
Jiang Yuzhu curled her lips, she felt that she was being implied.
"Of these five hundred and sixty yuan, two hundred will be used for the fourth child's wedding, two hundred for Meili's wedding, and the remaining one hundred and sixty is for our retirement. We can't keep a single cent."
"What else do you want? The fourth child is not my son, nor is he your brother. When the family is divided, it's natural to get a share. You still want to take your brother's share for yourself. You are really evil-minded!"
The old lady's face turned pale with anger.
She finally realized that the eldest brother's wife would not be reliable in the future.
"Mom, don't be angry, we have no objection. Of course the fourth brother should get a share. We are four brothers, how can we not have one? You can divide the money as you see fit, we have no objection." The eldest brother stood up.
"Don't mind it, Lao Si. Your sister-in-law has a bad temper. Don't be like her."
The fourth brother lowered his head and said nothing.
Jiang Yuzhu went forward and rummaged through the account book. She saw the last number, which was obviously newly crossed out and the purpose of it was not yet explained.
"Mom, can you explain to us what we did with the last two hundred dollars?"
Jiang Yuzhu didn't care about the money issue. She just didn't want to be fooled by others. If the old man and the old woman wanted to keep more money, that was fine. She had no objection.
But this account still needs to be settled clearly.
"You..." The old lady didn't expect Jiang Yuzhu to look through the account book.
Seeing that her sisters-in-law were bullying her mother, Xu Meili immediately became unhappy. "Third sister-in-law, what else do you want? I don't want to get married, right? I don't want my dowry money, I'll give it all to you, okay?"
"Oh, please don't say that. I don't want your dowry. I don't care even if the old lady gives you a house. But I just want to be clear about it. I don't want to be fooled. Let's settle the accounts clearly. It won't affect the harmony."
Jiang Yuzhu didn't care about Xu Meili and looked at the old lady.
"I...the third child was injured. It doesn't cost any money for so many of us to go there." The old lady didn't expect anyone to look at the account book.
Most people would just know the total amount of money, but it turns out that Jiang Yuzhu was born to be her unlucky star.
"Hey, don't scare me. After all, the money has been spent on us. We are two hundred yuan short. How come I don't know what you bought for Xu Lei?"
"Why do I remember that you didn't even buy a straw for your third son, and you even ate a lot of your third son's fruit in the hospital? Am I mistaken?"
Jiang Yuzhu didn't give the old lady any face.
Don’t even think about giving them these two hundred dollars.
"Since Mom said so, it shouldn't be wrong. That's perfect. My third brother and his wife don't have to share these two hundred yuan. It's just enough to make up for the shortfall."
When the sister-in-law saw this good thing, she immediately said that she would not give the two hundred yuan to Jiang Yuzhu.
It's only eight hundred yuan in total. If one person is missing, they can get sixty or seventy more.
"Mom and Dad, you see, I'm not being petty. I don't understand, and someone wants to figure it out. I don't want to be harassed by debt collectors after the family is divided. It's better for us to talk it out, right?"
"Sister-in-law, as for me, what belongs to me cannot be taken away by anyone, and I don't want a cent more of what doesn't belong to me."
"Mom, I'm sorry." Jiang Yuzhu walked up to the old lady and took out her clothes.
"Are you crazy? What are you doing?" The old lady naturally dodged.
Jiang Yuzhu really felt the money along her sleeve, and with her little hand, she took out two bundles of money.
"Sister-in-law, count it. You're the most educated person here. See if it matches the two hundred yuan?"
Jiang Yuzhu stuffed two bundles of money into Xu Meili's hands.
The old man's face was gloomy, and he scolded, "Why do you do such a thing?"
"I……"
The old lady smacked her lips in embarrassment.
"This... I forgot to put it in. I went to see the third brother and didn't use it." The old lady made an excuse for herself.
Jiang Yuzhu twitched the corner of her mouth, "Hehehe..."
This sneer was particularly clear in the room.
"you!"
The old lady turned away angrily. She couldn't look at the third daughter-in-law because looking at her would easily cause cerebral congestion.
