The young educated youth is the king of melon eating
Chapter 552: It's time to start a new life
Five dollars was the maximum she could give to Zhang Yuan for his wedding. After including all the miscellaneous extras, it was more than five dollars, at least seven or eight dollars!
The pocket money that I had saved with great difficulty over the past two years was gone in an instant.
The sisters also wanted to keep their brother's posthumous child, but they could not ignore their own family conditions. In the past few years since she got married, her mother-in-law has been the head of the family, and she has very little money at her disposal.
Although the remaining sisters separated from the family, their lives were not much better than hers. There were three or four mouths to feed in the family, and the children were still young, which was the time to spend money.
My parents usually give me what I should give during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, but this time they really can’t afford it.
If it was three or five dollars, Grandma Zhang Hui might consider helping out in an emergency, but if they didn't return it, that would be fine, and she didn't have to ask for it back. But the old couple asked for at least ten dollars, and if it was anything less, they would make a fuss.
There is more than one daughter-in-law in their family, Zhang Hui. If she were to be given to the Zhang family, the other two daughters-in-law would be waiting to cause trouble. The most important thing for a big family is that the people’s hearts must not be scattered.
So I can't give it, I really can't give ten dollars. If I give it to the Zhang family, I have to give it to the other two families. Don't say it's a loan. No one is a fool.
If you want to take, take out thirty and give ten dollars to each of the three sons. Otherwise, don't give anything to anyone. They are all daughters-in-law, they work and eat the same, so naturally they must be treated equally so that they can live together.
If a bowl of water is not held evenly, the two daughters-in-law will smash her bowl.
After ten days of hard work, I managed to collect nearly twenty dollars in total, five of which were secretly given by the second daughter's old lady, just to ask them to stop making trouble.
Her family has been feeling uneasy these days. The two daughters-in-law are watching her very closely, and the family is apparently becoming unstable.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang, who couldn't get the money together, went to the door pitifully with twenty yuan. As expected, they were pointed at and scolded. There was no way to reduce the money this way.
What can twenty yuan do? If you want to save the life of Zhang's eldest grandson, you need fifty yuan, not a penny less! !
You want to buy his daughter's life for just twenty dollars?
dream!
.
There is really no other way!
The old couple of the Zhang family gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, and were ready to hang themselves at the door of their daughter's house with a rope, not caring at all that this would make their daughter lose her life.
The Zhang couple used the hanging rope to go from house to house and made a scene, and they didn't care about anything and forced their four daughters to collect 50 yuan before they let them go.
As a daughter, she could not bear to see her parents hanged at the door of her house, and the old couple understood this point.
If you don’t want to give it to me, fine, then I should not be a human being anymore. Since he can’t even protect his eldest grandson, no one can live a good life!
Eventually the money was received but the relationship was almost broken. The four daughters were criticized in their respective villages and could no longer speak with dignity in their husband's family.
The second child, Zhang Hui, suffered particularly badly. When the old man and his wife refused to pay, they became furious and shouted at the door, saying that five dollars was enough for everything and that they were being treated like beggars.
This incident not only made Zhang Hui unable to hold her head up among her sisters-in-law, but also made her mother-in-law disliked by her two daughters-in-law. A good family was almost broken up.
Even if the family doesn't split up, we can never go back to the way we were before, with the whole family united as one.
In the end, the money was given, but the second daughter never returned to her parents' home since then.
Speaking of this, the second old woman remembered Shen Lu's way of judging people by appearance just now.
"You wouldn't believe it if you met the Zhang family. Old man Zhang has a very honest face, the kind that won't fart even if you hit him with three sticks. If you saw him, you would never believe that he could do such a thing..."
Every time when talking about the things done by the old couple of the Zhang family, the second old lady couldn't help but curse them. It was unlucky to be their daughter. Not to mention that she didn't support her daughter, how could there be anyone who didn't want her daughter to live a good life!
People's good lives have been messed up!
Favoring sons over daughters is not so easy. The girls in the Zhang family are all filial, otherwise how could the sisters raise money for their younger brother’s wedding!
Now, everyone is heartbroken. The old couple of the Zhang family are gone, and the coffin was bought with the money exchanged by the daughters. She said that we shouldn’t care about it. It’s better for them to die like this. There will be no harm if they die!
Shen Lu naturally heard the little emotion in the second old lady's words. She didn't know that Liu Yun was such a person. Isn't the first impression of a person based on his or her appearance?
It takes time to understand a person, she was wrong...
Now I can only change the subject abruptly and flatter him secretly.
"There is such a thing. I really misjudged it. I have been in the village for such a long time, and I have never heard that she has a child."
The subtext is 'I am still young, and you still have to be my aunt to judge people', and the second old nanny found it very useful to hear.
Shen Lu thought about it and realized she had never heard of it. If there was a child, Ermao's family would definitely not fail to mention it. Could it be that the child was raised in her mother's home?
The second old maid said "tu" in the direction of Liu Yun. No one in the Liu family keeps their word. They are a greedy family!
After finally collecting fifty yuan, old man Zhang and his wife hurriedly took the money to Liu's house to pick up the person. There couldn't be any mishap with their eldest grandson.
As a result, when the Liu family saw that they could raise fifty yuan, they wanted to get a bigger one.
Liu Yun has an older brother and two younger brothers. His older brother is married and has children, and his younger brothers will also be married in two years. The money that will cost is really huge.
How could they let go of such a good opportunity?
I thought that getting 20 yuan from the Zhang family was already a lot of money, but I didn't expect that this family was like cotton. It looked light but was actually soaked in water. If you squeezed it, there would still be...
The Liu family collected fifty yuan and then asked for another fifty yuan. The fifty yuan that was originally supposed to be used to raise the child was now given to Liu Yun, as a little compensation for the death of her husband during their wedding.
The new fifty dollars is for the child...
This family was really going too far. Liu Yun's mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, couldn't help but retort a few words. The next day, the Liu family secretly took Liu Yun to beat the child.
On the surface, it was because the Zhang family was not doing a good job, but in fact it was because someone arranged a new marriage for Liu Yun, and the bride price offered by that family was not low.
As soon as the Liu family saw Zhang Yuan's parents acting like that, they knew they really couldn't raise the money. It was a one-time deal, so why bother? They would definitely kick the Zhang family out and look for someone else's money.
By the time Old Man Zhang and his friend got the news, Liu Yun was already lying on the kang to recuperate after giving birth. The old couple went to their house to make a scene, but the Liu family kicked them out, saying that their Liu Yun couldn't stay a widow for the rest of her life.
In this case, Old Man Zhang and his wife started asking for money again. The Liu family said that it was compensation for Liu Yun and had nothing to do with the child. When the old couple heard such shameless words, they were so angry that they almost fainted.
