In rural areas, there are no men in the family, and there are no male children who inherit the lineage, and they are all bullied.

The deep-seated ideology of agrarian economics imprisoned all the people of the land and made it difficult for anyone who tried to resist.

"Your grandfather and your father both left early, but they are both martyrs, two generations of martyrs, so those broken-mouthed mothers-in-law dare not talk nonsense."

"Liu'er, you're different. When your father and your father were gone, they both had sons, and the people in the village did not dare to underestimate our family, because they knew that they had sons. ”

"You only have jelly beans."

Let's not mention that Bai Liu has only one daughter, but Song Jiaying is a knowledgeable youth, an outsider, who has no foundation in the Xiangyang Brigade, and died a disgraceful death.

The Bai family and the Huang family from Huang Fenglai are both big local families, but how thick is this friendship?

Huang Fenglai thought a lot, thinking day and night to keep more "love" for Bailiu.

"You take your daughter with you, and there will be a lot of right and wrong in front of the door in the future." She sighed earnestly.

There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and Bai Liu is still a beautiful widow.

It's hard.

Bai Liu pursed his lips and was silent for a long time.

She is not stupid, of course she understands which is more important, but it is even more impossible to change herself for the eyes of the villagers.

Life is too short, and she doesn't believe it's always been so rough.

"Mom, I still have you, I can earn my own money." The solution to the world's problems is only human and financial resources.

Huang Fenglai still didn't give up her previous thoughts, she asked with a serious face: "Tell your mother, do you can't let go of Song Jiaying, or are you worried that Jelly Bean will be wronged in the future." ”

"Anyway, you have to tell me who can make you the most satisfied!"

Bai Liu clearly knew that she and the old mother had different ideas, and she was not satisfied with anyone!

"I can support myself, I don't want any man, and I don't want to serve any outsiders." She said unusually firmly.

She really wanted to say that women have more than one way out of marriage, but she knew that these words were something that Huang Fenglai couldn't understand.

What's more, she has already compromised once.

When she graduated from high school, the college entrance examination was canceled, and when she lived in the eldest sister's house in the city, she happened to be taken by the director of the textile factory, saying that she was willing to marry her and go home as a continuation.

You must know that the bald factory director is in her thirties and has two sons, and she can't marry her if she is crazy.

At the time of danger, Bai Liu and Song Jiaying, who couldn't do farm work in the village, hit it off, and it only took three days for the two to get married.

A rickety little family slowly builds up, and it wasn't until Jelly Bean was born that they learned how to live.

"Mom knows that you can support yourself, but can you do it for Mom," Huang Feng stood up and held Bai Liu's hand tightly, "Just think it's for Mom, try again." ”

She was a widow and knew better than anyone what a widow could do.

As long as there is an opportunity, she can't let her daughter go down her old path.

Bai Liu closed her eyes, she was resolute in her heart, but she didn't want to fight with her mother.

It's better to procrastinate.

"But I have conditions," she said cracklingly, "the other party must be good to Jelly Beans and have their own income, and I won't have any more children if I don't marry my stepmother......"

The Zhou family, which is separated from the Bailiu family by a wall, is also chatting about family life at this time.

"I still have a crush on Bai Liu, and this morning, I saw six people looking for her to make clothes." Aunt Zhou gestured her finger "six", "The cheapest one can earn four yuan eight for six pairs of pants, and our family can't earn a few in a year's work settlement." ”

After a few days, the public grain was handed over, and after the grain and labor were divided, there were more people making clothes, and Bai Liu was always able to earn money.

The more Aunt Zhou thought about it, the more excited she became, and she couldn't wait to marry Bai Liu into the door now.

Zhou Xiucai was not satisfied with his wife's statement, he claimed to be a cultural person, how could he worry about his daughter-in-law's money?

"I don't think so, our family is going to be an official after going south, the girl of the Bai family-" He said and shook his head.

Aunt Zhou was not convinced: "She can make money, others can?" ”

Zhou Xiucai was even more unhappy when he said this, he always felt that his family was different from the people in the village, because he was educated and polite.

"She won't work after she gets married, we live so close, you didn't see that Song Zhiqing washed clothes, I'm afraid she won't be able to serve Xiang Nan and her two children." Zhou Xiucai looks down on men who do housework.

Aunt Zhou thinks differently: "This daughter-in-law has to look at the face of her husband's family, she will definitely be honest and please us Xiangnan after a widow marries Xiangnan, usually the Bai family also helps, she can still earn money, and live close." ”

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Bai Liuhe should be Zhou Xiangnan's daughter-in-law.

The Zhou family does not have many houses, and the whole family lives tightly.

But Bailiu has a house, and it happens to be next door to Zhou's house.

In the future, Bai Liu worked as a tailor in the countryside to earn money, and did not delay doing farm work to take care of the family, so that he could work in the city with peace of mind to the south.

Don't say that Bai Liu is disobedient, when the time comes, how many times will she be taught as a mother-in-law, can she still be honest?

Aunt Zhou muttered: "It's good for Bai Liu, our family is not a family that treats her daughter-in-law harshly, she has a little girl, and she is very beautiful." ”

She couldn't sit still when she said that, and she couldn't wait to go to Bai's house to talk to Huang Feng about her in-laws.

"Sit down!" Zhou Xiucai scolded sharply.

Aunt Zhou sat down reluctantly.

"I said, the little girl of the Bai family is not a person who lives, you look at how much she usually spends on eating and drinking, and let's not want her money, a good man is in charge of his own house."

Zhou Xiucai's words ignited Aunt Zhou's anger.

"You want to save face, why don't you want to think about the situation at home. If you have to send your children to study, you have to send your granddaughter to study, how much money does the family have to make this! ”

The old man in her family is a scholar, and he has admired reading the most in his life.

But she needs money to study, and she needs to say that she can send the boys to study, and the girls can read at home.

Although the conditions of the sons are okay, there are many children in the family and there is no separation, so the annual tuition fee makes her feel distressed.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have planned to find Bai Liu as my daughter-in-law.

"Then you can't ask Bai Liu to be Xiangnan's daughter-in-law, what to do, what to eat is not enough, our Zhou family doesn't want this kind of woman!"

Zhou Xiucai made the final decision.

Bai Liu didn't know what the next door was saying about her, but Huang Fenglai also mentioned Zhou Xiangnan.

"The Zhou family has talked about you several times, I think she has this meaning, and my mother thinks Zhou Xiangnan is okay."

She is looking for a man for her widow's daughter, which is definitely different from when her daughter is a yellow flower girl.

Zhou Xiangnan has a job, and it is still a steel plant, which is a good unit for drought and flood protection.

Although there are two children, the children are still young, and with her to take care of them, the girl does not have to be too busy.

Zhou Xiucai loves to chew words, and the Zhou family is troublesome, but the Zhou family loves face, and they are embarrassed to treat Xiao Liu'er too badly.

"Mom doesn't want to push you into the fire pit, marrying Zhou Xiangnan is your best choice now, and Mom can rest assured."

Huang Fenglai firmly grasped Bai Liu's hand, as if he was trying his best.
