Husband, please lend me your virtues

Nowadays, country folk attach great importance to offspring. They fear most that they will not have a son and then have no one to worship them a hundred years later.

"I have children and grandchildren, so I don't need to worry about them. It's your grandmother, whose husband died and whose two sons died before her. She is the one who needs to worry!"

"Even if you find a man from the same village to marry in order to take care of your fifth aunt, your future man may not be willing to let you run to your mother's house all day to take care of this burden, while neglecting your own family affairs."

Mo Zijin just thought what Mo Datou's wife said was funny. A man who would have a problem with her taking care of her grandmother was not within her range of choice for a partner.

And once a woman gets married, according to Mo Datou's wife, she has nothing to do with her parents' family and must devote herself to the man's family.

You must get into the mood quickly, treat your husband's family as your own home, and forget the family that gave birth to and raised you. It is best to treat them as relatives who are neither too close nor too distant.

Mo Zijin believes that he cannot do that, and he cannot agree with the ideas of Mo Datou's wife.

"Captain's wife, I will naturally find a man who is willing to honor my grandmother together. At worst, I will find a man who can feed the whole family and build a house to live near my grandmother."

"But you, since you keep saying that you respect my grandma as an elder, your words and deeds are actually insulting my grandma.

You should be more careful with your words, lest your children and grandchildren get dragged down by you and end up in jail as labor camp inmates."

What she said was true. In the original plot, the families of Mo Datou and Mo Xiaotou, who killed Old Mrs. Mo, were all sent to labor reform by the heroine. None of them could escape.

"You stupid girl, I was trying to talk to you nicely, but you kept saying things that hurt me. If I don't beat you down and make you cry for me, I'm not Liu!"

Just as Mo Datou's wife stretched out her hand to slap Mo Zijin, it was suddenly clamped by a pair of strong and powerful hands.

When Mo Datou's wife looked back and saw that it was an old and prestigious elder in the village, she no longer dared to be so presumptuous.

"What are you doing? You want to hit someone because you can't win an argument?"

Facing the sharp gaze of the elder with a full white beard, Mo Datou's wife withdrew her hand, not daring to take action again. Instead, she stood at a distance from the elder and whispered:

"Uncle, why are you here? Oh, even though you are old, you shouldn't get so close to me and hold my hand. Others will gossip about you."

"You should go home and enjoy your life. Why do you want to get involved in the affairs between us women?"

After Mo Datou's wife distanced herself from her so-called second uncle, she became bolder and accused him of getting involved.

After all, this second uncle has always been biased towards Old Lady Mo's family, and has never been nice to the other two families. You don't need to think about it to know that he is on Old Lady Mo's side this time.

She really didn't want him to get involved in this matter, and use her good reputation in the brigade to help Old Lady Mo suppress them!

"That's enough! Big-Head Wife, there should be a limit to your nonsense. Zijin and my sister-in-law don't want to see the man you introduced. What are you still nagging about?"

"You've said so many mean things! It's true that your two families are closely related to my brother and sister's family by blood, but our Mo family is not without people, and we are so poor that only your family can take care of my brother and sister!"

Mo Datou's wife curled her lips and said, "Second Uncle, your family has a lot of things going on. It's good enough that you can come to visit Fifth Aunt every once in a while."

"Can you bring your fifth aunt to live with you? This is not as simple as having one more person or one more pair of chopsticks!"

Without waiting for the elder to answer him, Mo Datou's wife continued speaking, glancing at the old woman next to her from the corner of her eyes from time to time.

"You are always looking for trouble for your son. In the future, not only will he have to take care of his own parents, but he will also have to support an aunt."

After hearing what Mo Datou's wife said, the old woman came to the elder, took his hand and walked out, fearing that he would make an impulsive decision that would drag down her son.

She only has one son, and she doesn't want him to work hard to support an old man. "Old man, go home. This is someone else's family matter, so don't say anything more."

"The knife at home is blunt. This morning, my eldest son's wife complained that it couldn't even chop a vegetable leaf. Go back and sharpen it!"

"You old woman! Why are you so anxious to sharpen the knife? It's not too late to sharpen it later. Didn't you see that my sister-in-law and the others were bullied by the big-headed wife?"

"Our grandson is clamoring to eat dumplings tonight, and the eldest son's wife even bought some meat. If we don't sharpen this knife, it will be dark!"

"My poor little grandson won't be able to eat dumplings tonight!" The old woman used the elder's most beloved grandson as an excuse and pulled the elder away with just one sentence.

Seeing the elderly couple walking away, Mo Datou's wife was very proud. She walked up to Mo Zijin with her head held high, like a rooster that had won a battle.

"Before Sixth Uncle came, I heard you say that you wanted to find a man who could build a house near your grandma's house?" Mo Datou's wife covered her mouth and giggled.

"A man who feeds his family and feeds them all? What's the difference between that and recruiting a live-in son-in-law?"

"Since ancient times, which man who can be a live-in son-in-law is good? Either he is eyeing the property of the girl's family, or he only wants to rely on the useless person supported by the Yue family!"

"You don't have to worry about that. You don't have to worry about my grandma's retirement. My sister and I will take care of it!"

"Hmph, your kindness has been taken for granted this time. Even if you beg me, I will not care about your marriage anymore. I'll wait and see what promising man you can find in the future who is willing to build a house near your wife's family home."

There aren't many men who can afford to build a new house these days, and they are all popular in the village. Why would he move to this haunted riverside just for Mo Zijin, who has nothing but his face!

"Don't worry, when I find him, I will definitely invite you to the wedding banquet and let you see him."

"Okay, okay! Don't let me see a man who likes to live off women."

Ke Leng followed a few police officers back to the Mojiazhuang Brigade and happened to hear the dispute between Mo Zijin and Mo Datou's wife. He came to Mo Zijin, pushed her behind, and acted as if protecting her.

"Don't be afraid, I'm back."

After comforting Mo Zijin, he said to Mo Datou's wife with a cold face: "You don't have to wait until later, you can see it now. I will build a house next to the old lady's house in a while, and in the future I will be like Zijin and treat the old lady as my own grandmother and be filial to her."

Ke Leng was so calm now and did not take action against Mo Datou's wife because he did not know that Mo Datou's wife came here to steal his girl and was going to introduce Mo Zijin to Chen Laoer.
