Song just felt a headache.
She wanted to raise a lady from a noble family.
"Mom, try it, this thing doesn't smell fishy at all."
Seeing how deliciously the head of the household ate, she knew it wasn't fishy. The problem was that both the older and younger girls were willing to take off their shoes, roll up their trouser legs and get into the water. What should they do in the future?
"Li Xi, how about I find you an embroiderer and we learn embroidery?"
"I don't want to." The little girl refused. The teacher's elder sister was just imitating Xiu Xi, sitting on the couch all day without getting up.
"Learning piano?"
"I don't want it. I want to go up the mountain with my elder sister to look for medicinal herbs and earn money."
Song was dizzy, "Boss."
"Don't worry about it. We are fine. There's nothing wrong with being more lively. Running and jumping is good for your health."
As long as the family has money and he and Xiaoyu support Li Xi, there will be many people wanting to marry her even if she goes fishing barefoot every day.
Ever since he had money, he has seen clearly that whoever has money has the confidence and whoever has money has a higher status.
"That's right, mom. I think Li Xi has a good personality. At least she won't be bullied. Her childhood is just a few years long. She can have fun as long as she is happy."
What else can she say? That's it.
"Big sister, take me to the mountains to identify herbs next time."
"I, when Li Xi makes money, can you support me?"
"Okay!"
While everyone was having a great time here, Zhao Maiqi was having a very hard time on the other side.
After returning from the Dragon Boat Festival, Ma Dacai felt a surge of anger in his heart. The last time he went back to Dong, the Yue family was very cold to him and it was obvious that they did not take him seriously.
She wanted them to help her find out about Zhao Laosan's affairs, but they kept making excuses. Now that she was living a good life, she looked down on him and didn't want to take care of her daughter.
It's true that a married girl spills her own water. Zhao Maiqi says every day how much her family loves her, but when she needs help, no one can be relied on. Is this what they mean by loving her?
Ma Dacai couldn't sleep because he couldn't make money.
I kicked Zhao Maiqi who was snoring on the kang. I wondered how she could ever fall asleep, she was so heartless.
"What's up, boss?"
"When you go back to your mother's house tomorrow, sit outside your third brother's door. If you don't learn how he makes money, don't come back."
Zhao Maiqi was yawning sleepily. She was basically the only one doing the work in the shop now. She had to cook, wash dishes and clothes when she got home. She was exhausted every day.
"Boss, even our eldest and second brothers couldn't get it, how could we possibly have it?"
"Didn't you say before that he was the closest to you? Wasn't your dowry earned by him carrying goods?"
"Third brother is the one who holds grudges the most. Have you forgotten how we treated him coldly in the past few years?"
"We treated him coldly during the New Year and he gave us the cold shoulder. That's bullshit. I don't care. Go back to your parents' home tomorrow. I've had enough of this hard life now."
Business this year is as bad as it can be. We have to be frugal with the food we eat at home. If things continue like this, the whole family will have nothing to eat.
Zhao Maiqi had no choice but to coax him patiently, "Didn't our mother say that the clan would put pressure on our third brother? We will go back to Dong in a while, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and maybe we will know a way.
You also know that my third brother is a very bad guy who won't listen to any tricks or threats. Now we are just asking for trouble and nothing good can come of it.
The business at home is not going so well, but it’s not just us, everyone is having a hard time this year. I heard that my third brother also helps people build houses at home every day. If he has work, would he still be busy at the construction site every day? ”
Ma Dacai thought about it and it made sense. Zhao Dashu's grandson was idle in the village every day, which meant that he was not having a good living now.
Alas, it’s all my fault for not seizing the opportunity!
He was displeased with Zhao Maiqi no matter how he looked at him, but he couldn't find any fault with him, so he could only say something harsh, "If there's no Mid-Autumn Festival, you'll see!"
Zhao Maiqi: …
