"They are just girls and they are not married yet. Why should they move? They will make people laugh at them." Xu Xinguo had other thoughts.
The eldest daughter is already twelve years old. She will be able to get married in a few years and then I can earn some dowry. Besides, the three daughters don’t have as much food and clothing as the son. They help with housework and can earn work points in the fields. Wouldn’t it be unprofitable to drive them out?
Hu Xiaoying asked, "Do you think face is more important or money is more important?"
She was not from Yonghe County, but came here with her family to escape famine. During the famine, her family sold her to Xu Xinguo in exchange for half a bag of sweet potatoes.
Because she is a girl, she has never been welcomed at home since she was a child. Her parents always say that she is a money-loser and does not deserve to eat well and dress well. The son is the pillar of the family. She has always believed this.
After marrying Xu Xingguo, she gave birth to three daughters in a row. Her mother-in-law often scolded her for being useless. It was not until she gave birth to her son Jinbao that her treatment improved. She then felt that sons were treasures and daughters were weeds.
In her opinion, she treated her three daughters well, much better than when she was a girl. It was her three daughters who had no conscience, and it was all her fault.
"It will cost at least fifty dollars to cure these injuries and illnesses. Please pool your money together." Li Xiyue saw that Hu Xiaoying was wavering and quickly added some firewood.
When he heard that it would cost fifty yuan, Xu Xinguo did not hesitate and immediately agreed to let his three daughters move out.
"I don't have any money. Since these damn girls are moving out, they are not allowed to take anything from the house. Get out of here now." Hu Xiaoying said viciously.
Su Fengying said, "That won't do. You beat the child like this, so you have to pay for his medical expenses. Also, you have to give the children the house. Otherwise, where are they going to live in this heavy snow?"
"Yes!" Grandma Wang agreed.
Hu Xiaoying didn't care. "You wish! It was the damn girl who wanted to move. You are not allowed to take even a single needle or thread from the house."
"You have to pay for the medical expenses, the house, and the things in the house." Li Xiyue looked at Hu Xiaoying, "Otherwise, I will report you to the police and have them arrest you and put you in jail!"
