Chapter Seventy-Nine: It's Ridiculous

Father Song heard that he actually married a courtyard, and he felt happy for Song Qi from the bottom of his heart, after all, this is his brother's biological child, and he and Aunt Song raised it single-handedly, how can there be no feelings? If Song Qi really met a good person, Father Song would naturally be happy. It's just such a big thing, and I can't help but understand it carefully.

"Is that family local? What is the last name? What is the girl's conduct, does she respect the old man and is knowledgeable? Daddy Song asked several good questions in a row.

Aunt Song said impatiently: "I naturally know about these things, the girl is my daughter-in-law and not yours, what do you care so much?" ”

Father Song said with a straight face: "My sister-in-law came to discuss with me, am I not even allowed to understand the basic situation?" ”

"I told you, the girl is not local, her father is a businessman, in the early years, he dragged his family to Longtou Town to do business, and bought a large yard in the town, and now her father is going back to his hometown, but the girl is reluctant to this place, after all, she has lived here since she was a child, and she wants to settle down all the time." After saying a lot in one breath, Aunt Song took a sip of water and said triumphantly: "It just so happened that the girl fell in love with my son, so her father decided to marry her to my son, and the younger couple will live in Longtou Town after that." ”

Father Song frowned and said, "Is her house far away from Longtou Town?" "If it's too far away, how can a rich businessman's father leave the girl in the family here?

Aunt Song snorted twice, "Why do you care so much?" I also know all the questions you asked, so don't ask questions, just one word, are you willing to help your nephew make up the bride price? ”

A wealthy merchant who can marry a yard has to ask for more bride price? Father Song didn't dare to admit first, and said, "I don't know how much silver my sister-in-law wants me to give?" ”

Aunt Song stretched out two fingers, "Two hundred taels." ”

"What!" Father Song stood up suddenly, and Gu Liuxi and Song Yu in the room also widened their eyes in surprise.

Two hundred taels, even if they can get more than ten taels per month according to their current income, excluding the capital, not counting natural disasters**, it will take nearly two years to make it up, if they encounter any places that need to spend a lot of money, these two years are not enough. In the past, the Song family didn't eat or drink, and it took a lot of teenagers to earn so much.

Aunt Song doesn't know the suffering of the world, and her mouth is two hundred taels, who can afford this?

"That girl is marrying a courtyard, what is two hundred taels?" Seeing that Father Song's face was pale, Aunt Song was full of disgust for this poor ghost, and said with a pout: "I went to see it with Qi'er, the courtyard is very big, and it costs a thousand taels of silver to buy it, but now it only costs two hundred taels, and Qi'er can get a suite and a daughter-in-law, isn't it cost-effective?" ”

In fact, Aunt Song thinks more long-term, the rich businessman only has the girl as a child, and after he is a hundred years old, won't all the properties in the family belong to Song Qi? So Aunt Song just dislikes that girl, who is thin and weak, can't give birth, and won't show it.

As long as the girl's rich businessman father dies, the girl will have nothing to rely on, Song Qi has money and a house, how many concubines can he not marry? If the girl dares to stop them, they can find an excuse to divorce them, and the delicate and gentle girl can't do anything about them.

Aunt Song's wishful thinking is crackling, and she will definitely not let this family business be yellow. If she let the girl's fat sheep run away, she would definitely hate Father Song for the rest of her life.

Father Song's hands trembled, he lit a dry cigarette and smoked several puffs, and then said after a long time: "My sister-in-law knows the situation in my family, my wife wants to take medicine, and the stone also has a strange disease, and I have not seen any improvement in seeking medical treatment everywhere, and I have given them some money to treat the disease, so let alone two hundred taels, I can't take out twenty taels." ”

Aunt Song knew that he would say this, and said with a sneer: "Naturally, I didn't expect you to take out the silver, but I can give you two choices, just make your own decision." ”

"Sister-in-law, please speak." Daddy Song said with a sigh of relief.

Aunt Song looked at the old houses, her eyes rolling, "Our family Qi'er is the eldest grandson of your old Song family, is this true?" ”

"Qi'er is the eldest grandson, yes."

Aunt Song pretended to lament, "Since the death of my father-in-law, these ancestral old houses are all lived in by your family, and we have never touched them, if you can't come up with the silver, then sell the old house." ”

"Ridiculous!" Father Song smashed his fist on the stone table, his fist was clenched to death, and the green tendons on his head were exposed.

Hearing Aunt Song's words, Song Yu was also very angry, and Gu Liuxi, who was standing beside him, was taken aback by him.

Could it be that this old house has some special significance, so it can't be sold?

Gu Liuxi didn't know that for the ancients, the ancestral house was the root, and if the house was sold, the root would be lost, so how could he have the face to meet the ancestors under the ground after death?

Many businessmen wander away from home, and even if they may not come back in the future, this old house will not be moved.

But Aunt Song actually wanted to sell the ancestral house of the Song family, how could Father Song and Song Yu agree?

Aunt Song said: "I also know that you don't want to sell the house, but if you think about it carefully, as soon as you sell the old house, you can exchange it back for a big mansion in a blink of an eye, isn't it cost-effective?" ”

Father Song shook his head, "I can promise you everything else, but the old house can't." He still remembers when he was a child, he and his parents and brothers repaired the house brick by brick, this is their roots, how can they sell it to others?

It was the little grandson who was waiting for money to save his life, and Father Song didn't dare to fight the idea of the old house, and now Aunt Song is selling it, how to make it?

Aunt Song sighed: "When your eldest brother was alive, he often told me that the old foundation was an ancestral heirloom, and this house was built by your ancestors themselves, and it was renovated and strengthened every year, and it could not be sold easily. ”

Father Song said in a deep voice: "If the second method is feasible, I will definitely help my sister-in-law do it." After all, it is a lifelong event for his nephew, and Father Song doesn't want to delay people because of himself.

Aunt Song glanced into the house, and saw that Gu Liuxi and Song Yudu were hiding in the stove house and eavesdropping, so she raised her voice and said, "I've heard that your daughter-in-law is from a big family in the city, and the family has money, since you can't afford the silver, this is only two hundred taels, and she can always get a thousand gold, right?" ”

At this time, not only Father Song and Song Yu, but even Gu Liuxi was stunned.

Let the new daughter-in-law help the brother-in-law pay for the marriage, what kind of reason is this? How long is Aunt Song's brain circuit, so that she can even say such things?
