Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity
Chapter 321: Heartfelt words
"Old Four, what do you think about this?" Grandpa Sheng said again, "I want to give this matter to the person while I am still alive..."
"Dad, you shouldn't ask me about this..." Sheng Xuan stood up, "Dad, I can't say anything about this. Dad, Mom, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I still have a lot of things to do at home."
Sheng Hao came here with Sheng Xuan. Now that Sheng Xuan had stood up, he naturally stood up as well and followed Sheng Xuan to leave together.
Sheng Xuan wanted to leave, and Old Master Sheng had no right to stop him, so he said to Sheng Hao, "Old Four, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
"Fourth brother, you have had a good relationship with your third brother since childhood. Please help persuade him about this matter. We are brothers. I have already explained the truth. Please help your father to persuade him..."
Before Sheng Hao could reply, footsteps were heard outside the door. It turned out to be Sheng Kai who hurried back from outside. "Didn't they say that the third brother was coming? Where is he..."
"Didn't you meet the third brother on the way back just now?" Grandpa Sheng asked without curiosity.
Sheng Kai smiled and said, "I heard that Dad is going to find a wife for my eldest brother again..."
The old man admitted it reluctantly. He knew in his heart that the reason why Sheng Kai could come back so quickly was that someone must have eavesdropped on their conversation and informed the second son. And this person must be Shen.
Even if Shen hadn't tipped off, the idea of arranging a wife for Sheng Nuo could not be hidden from the second son. So, although Mr. Sheng privately didn't want Sheng Kai to know about this so early, he also knew that it would be meaningless if he denied it now.
It doesn't make sense that the eldest son was not told about his wife, and the third and fourth sons were asked to help, but the second son was kept in the dark.
"Dad, how much money do we have left? Is it enough to find a wife for my eldest brother?" Sheng Kai sat down in front of old man Sheng and asked with a grin.
"You don't have to worry about this matter..." Old Master Sheng didn't respond to Sheng Kai's words at all and didn't want to reveal the family's financial situation to him.
"Dad, this is a big deal for our family. I am also a member of our family. How can I not worry about it?" Sheng Kai said.
"What else can you do besides messing around, wandering around, and making noises with your mouth wide open all day long?" said Mr. Sheng.
"Dad, if our family has enough money, why can't I help my eldest brother find a wife?" Sheng Kai continued, "When my eldest brother gets married, will the third family pay for it?"
Mr. Sheng didn't want to bother with the money issue mentioned by the second son, so he said, "Don't worry about it."
When Sheng Kai came back at this time, he naturally knew that the money for the eldest brother to marry would be paid by the old man. He just said that on purpose.
"Dad, I just came in and saw your expression. Is it because the third son doesn't want to pay for the money?" Sheng Kai said, "Dad, since you have money in your hand, you can find a wife for Xiaoyuan. Pang Xiu'e ran away, and Xiaoyuan is still single... Our family is rich now, so hurry up and find a wife for Xiaoyuan..."
"You were the one who arranged for Pang Xiu'e to marry him. Look what she has done to our family." Sheng Kai said to Grandpa Sheng, "Dad, Xiaoyuan is your grandson. You can't just want your son and ignore your grandson."
Old Master Sheng lowered his head and ignored Sheng Kai's words for a long time. The reason why he didn't want Sheng Kai to know that he was going to talk to the eldest son about finding a wife was because he was afraid that the second son would ask him for it. The money he had in his hand was barely enough to find a wife for the eldest son, and that was for someone with worse conditions...
Of course, if Sheng Xuan is willing to help, that would be another matter.
But what Sheng Kai said made sense. Xiaoyuan is not young anymore and is still single without any children. If this is delayed, I'm afraid he won't be able to find a suitable one.
"Second brother, Xiaoyuan is my grandson, and I am concerned about him. Nowadays, our family is not very rich. How much money can we save in a year? How much money do I have in my hand?"
"You see your eldest brother in this situation every day. Don't you feel bad for him? You all have someone who understands you, but your eldest brother is all alone. As his brother, can you bear to see this?" Grandpa Sheng played the emotional card.
"Dad, my eldest brother has already married two wives." Compared with Sheng Xuan and Sheng Hao, Sheng Kai spoke without any scruples. He was not moved by the old man's emotional card and said directly, "He has not lost out in this life. Besides, how can he be alone? People in our yard are not human beings. Besides, he has Xiao Hong and his wife by his side. He already has a successor, so what's the point of talking about a wife or not..."
"Dad, you can't be too partial. You also said that our family is not a wealthy family now. We can't save much money in a year. All our family savings are used to marry my eldest brother. What about Xiaoyuan? How long does Xiaoyuan have to wait before you can save enough money for him to marry a wife?"
"Besides, if you find a wife for Xiaoyuan first, you will have a grandson next year, but you don't even have a great-grandson. If you don't see your great-grandson, can you close your eyes when you die?"
"Dad, I don't want to argue with you about this, but the facts are right in front of us. No matter what, we need to find a wife for Xiaoyuan first. Besides, with my eldest brother, no girl from a good family would be willing to marry him unless you spend a lot of money. Even if you marry him, you should marry someone with children. In that case, he must be thinking about asking our family to help raise his children. Our family can't even afford to eat, so how can we raise a child for others for free?"
"Dad, you can't be so partial!" Sheng Kai really got into a fuss with Grandpa Sheng this time.
After hearing this, Mr. Sheng felt a little guilty, but he still hardened his heart and said, "Second brother, it's not that Dad is partial to us, it's just that our family has little money. We have to plan carefully..."
"Even if Xiaoyuan wants to marry, our family will have to choose carefully. Besides, the money we have now is not enough for Xiaoyuan to marry. We can't let Xiaoyuan down. Let him wait a little bit... Wait until next year, wait until next year, and we will find a wife for Xiaoyuan. As for the money, I will find a way by then."
"Your eldest brother doesn't have high requirements for a wife. He just wants a companion. The money we have should be enough..."
