"Ahem... But you know the third son's wife, she didn't put forward any other conditions or make things difficult for us. She only said one thing, which is that she doesn't want to work in the fields after marriage. You know she can't do that kind of work."
To be honest, she was still worried about letting her do it, and An Li also didn't want to work for a whole year and then compensate the brigade with food at the end of the year.
"Mom, why? They are all your daughters-in-law, why do you treat them differently? The second son's wife and I are destined to be maids, while the third son's wife is destined to be a lady. She won't even do any work after she gets married. You are too partial." The eldest son's wife was unhappy.
When the fourth son got married, she was unhappy because the betrothal gift was much more than what hers and the second son's family received. Now the third son's wife doesn't even want to do any work. Was she just married in for show?
"It's not your turn to speak in this family. Why? Just because my third son earns a lot, you've taken advantage of him. So what's wrong with his wife doing less work?"
"Is it that your son didn't spend the 10 yuan that the third brother sent, or is it that he didn't use the various coupons? Now you're telling me why. Why should the third brother take advantage of you?"
It would have been better if the eldest son's wife didn't say anything. She still felt a little guilty, otherwise she wouldn't have taken the ten dollars given by her son.
But when the eldest son's wife argued with her, An Li instantly got angry. She was the one who had the least right to say this. Did they really think that she was old and blind and knew nothing? Most of the housework was done by the second son's family, and she was just being lazy and slacking off.
I can't find her when I'm working, but she's the only one who can do the job for two people at a meal.
If she hadn't turned a blind eye to it because she gave her a grandson, she would have dealt with her long ago.
"Then...then she can't just do nothing, right? Second son's wife, tell me what's going on!"
Mrs. An tried to find the second son's wife to protest together.
"Sister-in-law, it doesn't matter who does more or less work." She didn't dare to say anything. She had no son to support her, so she had no confidence to speak. She just wanted to do more work so that her parents-in-law would not be angry with her.
"You are the only good person!" Mrs. An rolled her eyes in anger. What a fool! Wouldn't it be better to have more people share the housework?
Seeing this, Brother An quickly pulled his wife over and said, "What are you talking about? My sister-in-law is from the city, so it's normal for her to be uncomfortable with the job. Besides, my third brother is still supporting her, and she doesn't rely on the land to make a living. Why are you comparing yourself with her? Why don't you compare her family conditions?"
"Okay, An Jianguo, you despise me now, right? My family was not well off, but you insisted on marrying me. Now I have given birth to a son and a daughter for you, and you say this to us!" Mrs. An was not one to suffer a loss, and she immediately started yelling at Brother An.
"I...I didn't mean that!" Brother An scratched his head anxiously.
"What are you yelling about! You're the only one with a loud voice!" An Li yelled, and the room suddenly became quiet.
An Jianjun was afraid that his two sisters-in-law would complain, so he suggested to An Li that they give them an extra ten yuan each month.
He immediately said, "My two brothers and sisters-in-law, and my fourth brother, please tell my fourth brother's wife that I will give them an extra ten yuan a month. That way, I will give them a total of ten yuan a month, plus some coupons. I hope you won't ask too much of her."
"If she doesn't work in the fields to earn work points, I can support her. As for the housework, I'll ask my eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law to take care of it." Although he had never met Feng Jiaojiao, he could tell something from her reaction yesterday.
Feng Jiaojiao looked like a spoiled girl at home. Her skin was pink and translucent, and her hands were incredibly soft. She didn't look like someone who had ever worked before, so he had to make arrangements in advance.
An Li knew that too much is as bad as too little. "How about this, from now on, I'll take out some of this ten yuan and give two yuan a month to the eldest and second daughters-in-law, each. Don't count on the third daughter-in-law to do this little work around the house."
When Mrs. An heard that the third son gave the family ten yuan a month and that she also had two yuan in pocket money, she was immediately happy. "Oh, we're all family, why are you saying these polite words? Third son, don't worry. From now on, I'll take care of all the housework. I promise not to tire your wife."
As for why the fourth daughter-in-law was not mentioned, she is now breastfeeding her child and does not work in the fields.
Not to mention the second son's wife, she earns two more dollars a month, which means she saves more than twenty dollars a year. Of course she is very happy.
"Okay, now that we have reached an agreement, let's get ready." An Li saw that his eldest daughter-in-law was greedy for money, and he knew that this matter was temporarily over.
