"You stew at night, make up for the fourth child, don't have a family to celebrate the New Year, how much will you get fat, but why did I see the fourth child lose weight again?"

If you say that you stew meat for others, the Zhao family will be reluctant, but she can stew for her most beloved little son, she is really ruthless.

Hearing this, he immediately responded: "Okay, there is still a piece of meat at home, I will let the eldest daughter-in-law stew it for him later!" ”

Ye Zhengxing, who was next to him, heard this, but he was still calm, and said to the two: "Mother, father, the school will start in a few days, I will go back to the house first?" ”

"Okay, let's go." Zhao's face was full of kindness.

When her son left, she immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "Eldest daughter-in-law, eldest daughter-in-law? ”

Ma Shi heard the sound and entered the house: "Mother, what's the matter?" ”

"You go, stew that meat, remember to refine the oil first, add sauerkraut...... Forget it, I'll do it. ”

Halfway through Zhao's words, he changed his mind again, got off the kang, put on his shoes and walked out of the house.

A flash of surprise flashed in Ma's eyes, and he hurriedly followed: "Mother, didn't you eat meat at home a few days ago?" It's not a big day today, why are you stewing meat again? ”

There is only one piece of meat left at home, or the second brother and sister sent it before, if you eat it like this, next time you want to eat meat, I don't know when it will be.

Zhao's footsteps didn't stop, and he came to the stove room slowly: "Why isn't it a big day?" This year, the fourth child was praised by Mr. ”

"Look how much he's lost weight these days? If he doesn't make up for it, how can his body stand it? ”

When Ma heard this, he immediately stopped talking, rolled his eyes, didn't know what he thought, and didn't leave, just stood in the stove room, watching Zhao busy with his work, and helping a little from time to time.

After working for a while, Zhao finally stewed the meat and saw Ma not far away.

said with a straight face: "I can remember how many slices of meat I cut, don't want to eat it secretly!" Give me a good look at the fire, and call me well! ”

"Yes, mother!"

Xing Shi answered, and seeing that Zhao seemed to be preparing to go out, he hurriedly stepped forward.

mentioned the matter of her daughter again: "Mother, she will get married in a few months, and she has been learning embroidery since a few days ago." ”

"I'm almost done now, I told you yesterday that I want to go to the town to buy some good silk threads, as well as red silk, and I want to embroider my own wedding dress, mother, you see?"

Taking advantage of her mother's good mood now, if she doesn't seize the opportunity, she won't know when she will be able to bring up this matter next time.

Zhao's footsteps paused, his brows furrowed, embroidering a wedding dress?

Speaking of which, the family can barely be called a big family, and if the granddaughter goes over in a smooth red cloth dress, it is a little unsightly.

With a pain in her heart, she turned her face and asked, "How much silver do you want?" ”

Ma's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said: "Mother, it doesn't take too much, you can give twenty taels of silver!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao, who looked kind just now, turned black with a black face, and pointed at her and scolded: "Twenty taels is not much? ”

"Could it be that the red silk is made of silver? I'm not old yet! I'll give you 400 wen, which is enough for you! "Let's look for books

When she said four hundred wen, she felt that her heart was dripping blood, if it weren't for the fact that the Duan family sent so much silver, she would have given one hundred wen at most!

Of course, Ma Shi knew that she wanted a lot, but she couldn't help it, if she didn't take this opportunity to ask for more, would it be possible to let her daughter marry her with ten taels of silver?

The Duan family sent a hundred taels of silver!

Hurriedly took a few steps forward and said: "Mother, it's not just red silk, that family is a big family, when Yue'er gets married, if you bring a pair of silver bracelets over, it's really a little unsightly." ”

"Mother, you have worked hard to raise Yue'er for so many years, and the two golden hairpins should be regarded as Yue'er's filial piety to you, but we also have to take into account the face of the Duan family."

"If you don't bring the golden hairpin, we can always make some more silver jewelry, I think about giving Yue'er some silver hairpins, silver bracelets, silver collars or something, things look more, and you and the Duan family are also ..... on their faces."

Zhao Shi kept a straight face, staring at his daughter-in-law with small eyes, and before she could finish speaking, he interrupted her sharply: "Those two golden hairpins are mine, and there is no need for her to be filial!" ”

"What's the matter, do you think I give too little, a pair of silver bracelets is not enough? Do you want to? You want to think! You go to the village to take a look, which family marries a granddaughter to give such a large number of dowries? ”

"At most, it's just a small silver hairpin, a box, hum, girls are all money-losing goods, how can you think about your mother's family when you marry in?"

"Am I not good-looking? Do I still have face? I've been thrown away by the two of you a long time ago! As for the Duan family? ”

"People are big families, and they don't care about this little thing! Just give 400 wen, no more! Do you love it or not? ”

Ma was unwilling, but he couldn't think of any good reason for a while, so he could only retreat: "Mother, the number four is not good." ”

"Besides, the red silk in the town is not cheap, the wedding dress that Yue'er has to make is complicated, and the cloth of four hundred wen is not enough."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao had not yet spoken, and the movement was heard in the third house.

Li, who happened to walk to the door, interjected a lot: "Four hundred wen is not enough?" I remember that a while ago, who in the village pulled the red silk cloth, and it cost less than 400 yuan. ”

As soon as Zhao heard this, he immediately said, "Don't you think the four are not good?" Then I'll give you three hundred and eighty wen, okay, you don't have to say anything more about this, give me a good look at the fire! ”

The words fell, and without waiting for Ma to say anything, he strode out of the stove room, until he walked into the house, his face was not good-looking.

Ye Fang on the kang saw her like this, and asked out loud, "What's wrong with you?" Li Langzhong said, let you be less angry, do you still want to take medicine? ”

Zhao seemed to remember the taste of the bitter medicine, his whole face wrinkled together, and he took off his shoes and sat on the kang.

He replied angrily: "You think I want to be angry?" If you're not the eldest daughter-in-law, you know how to get money from me! ”

"Tell me, is there less dowry I let the moon girl bring over? Hmph, if she is not satisfied, she will know that she is making trouble every day! ”

Ye Fang frowned when he heard this, if the Duan family didn't send many dowry gifts, it would be a lot for them to let their granddaughter bring these over.

Can..... Compared with the hundred taels of silver, this dowry is indeed less, and it is no wonder that the eldest daughter-in-law wants to make trouble.

"There are a lot of things sent by people, you can let Yue Yatou bring some more, and our family can also make a good impression in front of the Duan family."

"The boss is in the county seat, and he can still walk around with the Duan family, in case something happens to the boss, they can also help, you are like this now, won't you cut off the back road?"

Zhao waved his hand and said angrily: "Still helping?" Are you a good girl of the month? ”

"I've seen through it now, this month's girl, like the second child, is also a white-eyed wolf....."
