Parents are busy farming

Chapter 328 Liu Chengcai regrets

"But, that is my dowry. If you want to blame me, I blame you for not preparing a dowry for your sister-in-law!" The little daughter-in-law did not dare to speak loudly, but her words were heartbreaking.

"Do you think this is human language? Can't you tell the priorities?" Zhang Wang's voice became louder.

In the room, Zhang Chunyue vaguely heard her stepmother's quarrel outside, and stood up.

Liu Chengcai also heard the sound and ran over from the carpentry room.

Mrs. Zhang Wang saw him, walked up to him, pointed at his nose and asked, "Let me ask you, how much money did your sister-in-law spend on your wedding?"

Liu Chengcai was a little confused by this meaningless question, "Ten...ten taels of silver."

Zhang Wang immediately asked: "Do you know how much money your brother spent on his marriage?"

Of course Liu Chengcai knew it, and it was because he knew it that he felt guilty towards his elder brother and sister-in-law.

He nodded.

Mrs. Zhang Wang asked again: "How does your sister-in-law treat you?"

Liu Chengcai nodded quickly, "Of course, my sister-in-law is very good to me..."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she asked again: "Your sister-in-law cannot leave the house during her confinement period. She wants to use your family's gong bucket, but your wife says it is her dowry. What should you do?"

Only then did Liu Chengcai realize that there was something about his wife involved, and he quickly said: "My mother-in-law, please wait, I will find a solution."

After saying that, he ran to the wooden house and took out a new Gongtong to Mrs. Zhang Wang.

It was custom-made by someone who was marrying a girl, and now it is being used for emergency purposes.

Mrs. Zhang Wang was satisfied and quickly took it into the house.

After Zhang Chunyue got up, she hid behind the door curtain and heard the whole content of their conversation. When she saw her stepmother coming with the bucket, she quickly lay down on the bed.

Because I was walking so fast, I felt a little dizzy.

As soon as she lay down, Zhang Wang came through the door.

Put Gongtong down and help Zhang Chunyue get up for convenience.

Zhang Chunyue, after finishing the recuperation, the toilet bucket was full of lochia.

Mrs. Zhang Wang looked at Zhang Chunyue and said, "You put on the menstrual belt, and I will massage it for you. It will be good for your health if the lochia is drained away."

Zhang Chunyue listened and did as she was told.

The little daughter-in-law has not dared to go out since Mrs. Zhang Wang left the hut.

She didn't come out until Mrs. Zhang Wang entered the house.

Seeing Liu Chengcai, she quickly explained: "Those are our personal belongings. I..."

Liu Chengcai didn't blame her this time, he just said: "It's okay, my brother and I didn't think well. When he comes back, we will make up for what my sister-in-law needs."

The implication is that the two brothers helped Zhang Chunyue complete the dowry.

When the young daughter-in-law heard this, her face immediately showed displeasure, and she muttered in a low voice: "The dowry was prepared by her mother's family for the girl. My sister-in-law didn't ask her to go to her mother's family to ask for it! You prepare it, it's not something you take from the father-in-law." Are you subsidizing your sister-in-law?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Chengcai immediately pulled her out and came to the field. Only when he saw that there was no one around did he let go of her hand.

He said to her with a cold face: "After my mother died, my family was basically destitute. It was my mother who forced my brother to sell an acre of land before she died and asked him to use the money to marry a daughter-in-law. After my mother's funeral, There are only five taels of silver left."

The younger daughter-in-law didn't want to hear those things at all, but Liu Chengcai didn't stop.

"My brother's betrothal gift to my sister-in-law was only five taels of silver. My sister-in-law didn't bring anything back, but she did bring back some ginger cotton. My sister-in-law used the cotton cloth to exchange for a lot of linen to make clothes and shoes for me and my eldest brother. Make cotton-padded clothes. Before I hired you, we didn’t know that my sister-in-law still had a minimum deposit of three taels of silver."

The little daughter-in-law opened her mouth wide after hearing this.

‘Three taels of silver, you can give the girl three taels of silver at the bottom of the box, which shows that her family attaches great importance to her, but why not prepare other dowry? ’

Liu Chengcai then asked: "My sister-in-law took out the money from her bank account and borrowed five taels of silver from her brother Gao Yi to get enough for your family's betrothal gift. Do you think it is right for my eldest brother and I to prepare a dowry for my sister-in-law?" of."

The young daughter-in-law pursed her lips and said: "A sister-in-law is like a mother. She said it for you, which is what she should do! What's more, who told her family to keep her as an old girl!"

Liu Chengcai found that no matter how he talked to her, he couldn't make sense. For the first time, he considered whether he was a confused person and shouldn't have fallen in love with her in the first place.

"I don't care if she is an old girl or not. I said marriage. My sister-in-law has been a big help. You also said that a sister-in-law is like a mother. If you can't be filial to her, then I will consider sending you back to your parents' family. We can't keep people without conscience in our family. .”

After Liu Chengcai finished speaking, he didn't care about his tearful little wife and walked home on his own.

Mrs. Zhang pressed Zhang Chunyue's belly for a while. After she changed the menstrual belt, the little girl woke up.

Mrs. Zhang Wang quickly changed the little girl's diaper and asked Zhang Chunyue to feed the child. Because there was no milk, the little girl was so hungry that she started to cry.

Zhang Wang had no choice but to give the little girl a few drops of warm water.

Zhang Chunyue was so distressed that she shed tears.

"Chuxi, I don't want to cry out of your eyes during confinement! When your man comes back, I will quickly cook you some millet porridge. Drink more, and the milk will come soon."

After Mrs. Zhang Wang finished speaking, she took out the toilet, the menstrual belt, and the child's diaper.

Start washing and scrubbing.

In my heart, I looked down upon Zhang Chunyue, my sister-in-law. Although I was my stepmother and had kept her for two more years, I never thought of making her angry when she was in confinement.

Women know best how difficult it is for women, plus she has taken care of her children for them all these years.

'She still has to talk about this matter in front of the Liu brothers, otherwise Gao Yi will find out when he comes back that he will make her sister angry in front of her, and that brat will probably blame himself. ’

When Liu Jiancai came back, everyone immediately saw the millet on Liu Jiancai's shoulders and the two pig feet in his hand.

"Brother, I bought so much millet! There are also pig's feet, how much does it cost?" said the little daughter-in-law.

Liu Jiancai's face flashed with embarrassment, and he explained: "I met the fifth girl of the Ye family in Lujia Village. She knew that she was buying millet for your sister-in-law to improve her health, so she specially took me to a store she knew well and only paid the cost price."

Originally, he wanted to take out the brown sugar, but seeing his sister-in-law's attitude, he quickly took his hand back.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang Wang showed off and said: "Ye Wu? Well, that's a generous and warm-hearted girl. His father is already the most important person in our village, and he and Gao Yi even built a caravan!"

Liu Chengcai quickly answered: "Brother Gao Yi has been gone for a long time, he should be back soon, right?"

Mrs. Zhang Wang knew nothing about Zhang Gaoyi’s whereabouts, but it didn’t stop her from showing off!

"Alas! It's hard to make money! I heard that their caravan doesn't make much money, and I don't know when he can pay off Ye Wu's debt!"

Just saying this, can you put the smile on your face away?

"Okay! The millet is here. I'll cook it for Chunyue quickly. The little girl will cry from hunger if she can't get any milk!" Mrs. Zhang Wang said as she got up, took the cloth bag and pig's feet and went to the kitchen.
