Chapter 401 You’ve been living a good life for too long and can’t tell good from bad!

“What’s wrong with me giving birth to two daughters? It’s because you, the Zuo family, have done too many immoral things and are destined to be childless!”

“A kind person is often bullied, and a kind horse is often ridden. It’s because our Jiang family is too easy to talk to that you don’t take us Xia He seriously. You beat her and scold her whenever you want!”

“If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked too! There is no good person in your Zuo family! And give birth to sons? Your family can’t afford it! You will be extinct!”

“How dare you mention confinement? I gave birth to two children and didn’t even get to eat a bite of meat. You ate your two eggs and you still have the nerve to talk about it!”

"Oh! Zuo Fengyou, you are such a good-for-nothing! Is five dollars worth quarreling with Xia He? Is that a lot for Xia He? That's fine with you! If you were like our Xiao Wu, who made enough money to buy his wife a luxurious home, would you still care about three or five dollars?"

"If you can't afford the tuition, don't go to school! What's the point of two girls going to school? Our Xiao Liu can help a lot at home if she doesn't go to school!"

"..."

After hearing this, Lin Wanxia turned her head and asked the fourth sister-in-law, "Xiao Liu doesn't go to school?"

The fourth sister-in-law nodded, "Yes! My father-in-law and mother-in-law think that girls will get married sooner or later, and there is no point in going to school, so they didn't let Xiao Liu go. Alas! My father-in-law is a good person in other aspects, but his thinking is too old-fashioned."

"But I saw Xiaoqi didn't go to school either!" So Lin Wanxia always thought it was because of the winter vacation.

"Xiaoqi didn't want to go to school, but his father-in-law forced him to go. If he didn't go, he would whip him. He didn't go to school recently because you guys came back." The fourth sister-in-law looked around and saw that everyone was busy arguing and persuading each other and no one paid attention to them. "I'll tell you a secret, you must not let your parents-in-law know. In fact, Xiaoqi didn't go to school at all."

"Huh?"

"According to reason, Xiaoqi should be in the third grade this year, but he didn't go to school before finishing the first grade because he thought school was boring. He took the tuition money from the family and didn't go to school at all. He spent all the money."

"If he doesn't go to school, what does he do during the school time?"

"Who knows? Maybe he's playing in other villages. During the busy farming season, he would secretly run off to help others and earn money. Alas! Your fourth brother secretly told him several times, but it was no use. However, although Xiaoqi is naughty, he is not a bad person. Several times when our little girl was sick, it was Xiaoqi who gave her money."

"Is the family short of money? Even if the eldest brother doesn't send money back, Jiang Sinian still sends money back every month, right?" Although Lin Wanxia didn't care about Jiang Sinian's money, she knew that Jiang Sinian sent money home.

He used to send ten yuan, but later when the family was no longer short of money, he sent two cents home.

He sent twenty yuan to his parents-in-law and ten yuan to his fourth brother and his wife.

Considering the income of Jiang Sinian and Lin Wanxia, ​​thirty yuan was not much.

Lin Wanxia also asked Jiang Sinian: "Why don't you send more?"

Jiang Sinian's answer was: "It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality. It's easy for me to give them money, but it's also easy for them to rely on me. You know my job is a high-risk job. If I die, some of the bad habits they have developed from me will be difficult to change.

If I stay safe and healthy, there's nothing wrong with a long-term relationship. I can also spend the money I save on the right things, such as building a house for them or buying big items."

In fact, when Jiang Sinian came back this time, he wanted to build a house for his family.

It's just that Lin Wanxia built a greenhouse in advance, so it's not appropriate to bring it up now.

Sometimes letting your family know how much money you have will destroy family harmony.

However, even if the money is a trickle, it is enough for the Jiang family to live a comfortable life in the village.

For example, most families in the village only have a net income of 300 to 400 yuan a year.

"When the production team was changed to subcontracting land to households, our family owed the production team a lot of money. Later, we asked for a cow. Since Xiaowu sent money home, we have paid it back little by little. Of course, it's not that the family has no money at all. It's just that some of the money we think should be spent is not necessary for the elders to spend. Our mother is still the one who manages the money in our family.

For example, our little girl had diarrhea and became dehydrated, but my mother-in-law said that diarrhea was just a symptom and we didn't need to worry about it. Later, we stayed in the hospital for a week. My mother-in-law said that I was making a fuss and refused to pay. Fortunately, I saved the ten yuan you gave me every month and used it to save my life at the critical moment."

"Why didn't you come to us for such a big deal?" Lin Wanxia frowned, "The child's life is more important."

"I know you are quite relaxed now. But we can't ask you for money all the time, right? Besides, even if we are thick-skinned enough, my parents-in-law won't allow it. Especially our father, who always says that it is hard enough for Xiaowu to be a soldier, so we don't need to cause trouble for him all the time."

Lin Wanxia nodded, and she became more determined in her heart. To help those who deserve to be helped in the Jiang family, we must not simply give money directly.

It is a waste for those without backbone to give, and people with backbone cannot give.

If you want to help, help from the root.

If you don't want to help, just eat melon seeds and watch the fun.

Of course, sometimes watching the fun can easily get you into trouble.

Those who quarreled didn't know who started the war on Lin Wanxia.

"What's so great about having a little dragon girl? Even the fifth child can make soy sauce, but they didn't come to help you. With the character of you Jiang family, the little dragon girl doesn't even bother to be a member of your family."

"Don't say she is a little dragon girl. Even if she is the Sea Dragon King, she is still a member of our Jiang family and will be included in our Jiang family tree! What does she have to do with you?"

Lin Wanxia was hesitating whether to step forward to express her attitude, and someone got angry and started fighting.

Facts have proved that when women fight, men can't persuade them to stop.

In the end, the neighbors heard the noise and came over to separate them.

Lin Wanxia felt distressed and amused when she saw Jiang Sinian with two scratches on his face. She pouted and complained, "I didn't even want to scratch you! How dare they scratch you."

Jiang Sinian: "..."

"From now on, you can only scratch yourself."

Lin Wanxia: "..."

Lin Wanxia was so angry that she pressed Jiang Sinian's face hard, "You scratched it lightly."

***

Fighting is only temporary, and when it comes to marriage, of course, you can't make a conclusion so quickly.

The third sister went back to the Jiang family crying.

When Jiang's father heard that the third sister said she wanted a divorce, he threw the dry pipe in his hand at her.

The third sister, who had no external injuries in the fight with the Zuo family, suddenly had a cut on her forehead.

"You've been living a good life for too long, and you can't tell good from bad!" Jiang's father pointed at the third sister and scolded, "You are already 33 years old, and you will soon be 34 years old. How can

you do such a ridiculous thing as a mother of two children?" Jiang's mother protected her daughter: "It is obviously the Zuo family who is not a human being and bullies our Xia He. Why do you want to punish Xia He? As the head of the family, you don't even support the daughter. The daughter has come back aggrieved, and you still blame her?!"
