Chapter 18: The Bride Price Conflict

Lu Qinzhou, who was originally helping to pick vegetables in the hall, hurriedly put down the leaves in his hand after hearing the familiar shout.

The shoes ran away, turned around and ran out the door.

When Lin Yuxi, who was outside the fence, saw Lu Qinzhou, his face changed instantly, and his gaze bypassed the other backs that fell on him in the room.

"Aunt Wang, are you at home?"

Wang Xiaohua, who was picking vegetables in the courtyard, thought that Lin Haoxi was here to find her son, so she didn't go out in a hurry.

When I heard the shouts outside the hospital again, I realized that the other party had come to look for me on purpose.

She put down her work, quickly got up and walked out.

"Lin Zhiqing, you're looking for me."

Wang Xiaohua was happy when she saw Lin Xiaoxi, quickly wiped her hand on her apron, and opened the fence with a smile.

"Yes, I'd like to borrow a crockpot from you."

Lin Xiaoxi smiled when she saw Wang Xiaohua come out, and hugged her arm affectionately, not disgusted with the smell of sweat on her body at all.

Lu Qinzhou stood in the courtyard and rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking that he had seen it wrong.

When did Lin Zhiqing have such a good relationship with his mother?

Lin Haoxi didn't care what Lu Qinzhou's expression was at this time, and followed Wang Xiaohua to the cellar.

Wang Xiaohua was worried that the cellar was too dark, and Lin Xiaoxi would be scared when she went down, so she just asked her to wait on it, and turned around and walked down the cellar by herself.

Lin Xianxi, who was waiting by the cellar, looked boredly at the courtyard of Qinzhou, thinking about what needed to be purchased.

Lu Qinzhou's family is so poor that the whole yard is empty, and there is not even a single chicken.

Other families will have at least one or two, and at most five of them.

Except for the empty courtyard, the bungalows were very simple, without even doors, and the sleeping rooms were covered by a curtain.

There was nothing in the hall except a table and a few stools.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel sad.

The Lu family is kind to her, no matter how this kindness, she must repay it to the Lu family in this life.

It's just that the current situation has to solve the problem of her own living expenses and the inheritance left by her parents

She could only receive it after she got married, and she now goes to the countryside with all the money and food stamps she had saved in the city.

When I lived in the Lin family before, I was encouraged by Lin Ruochu.

She spent lavishly, and she had already used up the money she took to the countryside.

Before going to the countryside, the uncle had mentioned it to her, and if she encountered difficulties, she could mention it to him.

However, she didn't call her uncle, just because, in her previous life, she accidentally learned that her uncle and Song Guochao were in the same group.

Even her going to the countryside was secretly arranged by her uncle, in order to monopolize the inheritance.

This time she must not fall into a passive situation again, and she can earn money herself.

While Lin Haoxi was concentrating on observing the situation of the Lu family, Lu Qinzhou was standing next to him with a sad face and a very heavy mood.

was mainly worried that Lin Zhiqing would find out that there was nothing in his family, and finally decided not to marry.

Although he was ready for Lin Zhiqing to regret it in the end, when he saw her really appear at home.

I still feel very uncomfortable, and it seems that I have to hurry up when it comes to making money.

Thinking of this, he turned and walked quickly into the hall.

Lin Haoxi didn't know what Lu Qinzhou was thinking, and watched him leave quickly in confusion, annoyed and angry in his heart.

This straight man, won't his brain turn?

Lu Qinzhou, who entered the hall, found the eldest brother who was busy picking vegetables, and took his hand to the corner.

"Big brother, will you go to town the day after tomorrow?"

Lu Jiaqing thought for a while and nodded, "Go, didn't your sister-in-law quarrel with her mother, go buy her something delicious." ”

"Okay, then call me along." Lu Qinzhou hurriedly expressed his position after hearing that his eldest brother planned to go to the town.

Lu Jiaqing was a little puzzled when he heard that his younger brother was also going to town, and asked rhetorically.

"What are you doing in town?"

"Tomorrow I'll go to the mountains to find some herbs, and tomorrow I'll go to the town to sell them." Lu Qinzhou didn't dare to tell the truth, so he could only hide it under the guise of selling herbs.

How could Lu Jiaqing not understand his younger brother, and slapped him on the back and warned.

"Just your little bit of fancy intestines, can my eldest brother know?" After finishing speaking, he looked left and right to approach Lu Qinzhou and whispered.

"A few days ago, I saw a small black pig on the back, not big, if it was caught and sent to the black market, it could be exchanged for some money."

Lu Qinzhou no longer hid his mind when he heard that his heart was exposed, pursed his lips, and nodded, "I know, I have already laid a trap yesterday, and I will go and see it tomorrow." ”

Lu Jiaqing laughed happily when he heard it, it takes a lot of money to get married, presumably this kid is afraid of affecting the family.

wants to secretly save enough money for the bride price and banquets, his younger brother has been sensible since he was a child.

Just as the two were secretly hiding in the corner and whispering, Huang Yingying, who was still working, couldn't stand it anymore, picked up the dish and smashed it at Lu Jiaqing.

"When we meet every day, what is there to talk about, don't you cook? Who do you expect to do? ”

After Lu Jiaqing and Lu Qinzhou found out that Huang Yingying was angry, they immediately stopped chatting, obediently picked up the vegetable leaves on the ground and walked to the table.

Lu Qinzhou knew that his sister-in-law was because in the morning, his mother promised Lin Zhiqing to give her the best bride price and banquet.

This made his sister-in-law unhappy, and he embarrassedly put the dishes back in the basket and whispered.

"Sister-in-law, I will make up for it when I make money in the future."

Huang Yingying's anger disappeared instantly when she heard Lu Qinzhou's words, but she still looked unforgiving.

"Yo, Brother Qinzhou, do you know what I'm talking about? What are you going to make up for me? ”

"Make up for your ghost, Huang Yingying warns you, don't fight Qinzhou's idea, otherwise, don't blame me for being polite."

Lu Qinzhou was just about to reply when he heard Wang Xiaohua rushing in with a clay pot, pointing at Huang Yingying and scolding loudly.

Huang Yingying's dissipated anger became agitated again because of Wang Xiaohua's appearance, and she muttered aggrievedly.

"Mom, I have the idea of beating Qinzhou, it was he who said that he wanted to compensate me, and I didn't say it, not to mention that they are all your daughters-in-law, you can't just favor Lin Zhiqing regardless of whether our family lives or dies."

When Wang Xiaohua heard her eldest daughter-in-law's complaint, her heart was half cold, and she retorted angrily.

"Eccentric Qinzhou? Think about it yourself, it's been five years since you got married, have you ever cooked once? How much work do you earn in a year?

Is it not clear in the distraction? Every time the brigade sends down rice, grain, oil and pork, you say that you want to take a copy back to your parents' house, I have a word

Isn't it? Last time, your father lost his gambling money, and the creditor found the door, and you said that you wanted life-saving money, even if there was no return, I would pay it back

It's taken out to save your life, but the time when there is some delicious food and drink at home is a disadvantage to you. ”

Huang Yingying listened to her mother-in-law's accusation, looked back at Lu Jiaqing weakly, and turned around to hide behind him.

She also knew that her mother-in-law had always been a bowl of water on weekdays, but she was still not convinced, and the bride price that Lin Haoxi married was higher than her.

Lin Haoxi already has a large inheritance to inherit, so it still needs so much money, so it is better to leave it for them to have children in the future.

Lu Jiaqing, who found that his mother was completely angry, hurriedly stepped forward, showed a flattering expression, and explained with a smile.

"Mom, don't be angry, Yingying doesn't mean that, she's anxious, what to say, don't be weird with her."

Lin Yuxi, who was standing outside the door, looked at everything that happened in the house embarrassedly, she was still the official daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

There was no way to go in to relieve the emotions of the two, so they could only stand outside the door and wait quietly for Wang Xiaohua to take out the crockpot after taking care of the housework.
