Get out of your vicious mother's house, and make a fortune with your husband to become a prince

Mrs. Ding took the two children back to the room to rest.

Liu and Xue Qing sat on the kang. Xue Qing asked Liu, "Mother, do you think Second Madam is different today?"

"Qing'er, do you think so too? I felt uneasy after returning from the old house." He stroked his hair and continued, "Second Aunt and Second Uncle would never look at us in a good face if they didn't have any benefits. I remember when we just arrived in Shilibao, if Second Aunt was nice to me, she would make trouble within two days and ask me for money. Your father would give Second Aunt money as long as she asked."

This was the first time Xue Qing heard her mother-in-law talk about her ignorant father-in-law.

"Your father-in-law is a kind and filial man. Second Aunt keeps asking for money for taking us in. I pawned my most valuable dowry jewelry..."

As she spoke, tears began to fall like beads from a broken string.

Xue Qing frowned, "Dowry is..."

"That dowry is the legacy my mother left me. It is worth a fortune. Your father also gave it to Second Aunt."

After calming down, I spoke to my daughter-in-law for the first time about my husband's unknown fate.

"Eight years ago, your father took most of the family's money and went to the county town with his friends to do business. Who knew that he never came back. I took Dalang and Erlang with me and asked my second uncle to ask someone to look for him, but we couldn't find him."

Although Liu was a little depressed, she was no longer that sad.

"Later, they said he died outside. Two years later, my second aunt came with a matchmaker to ask me to remarry. Fortunately, Dalang and Erlang had grown up, so they drove them out. Seeing that she couldn't afford to offend her two nephews, my second aunt never mentioned the matter again. She only came over occasionally to ask for some food."

Xue Qing held her mother-in-law's hand. Her husband was missing. In that era when women were treated harshly, one can imagine how difficult life was for her mother-in-law.

"Mom, are you afraid that the old woman will ask you to remarry?" Xue Qing felt that the title of old woman was more appropriate at this time.

"Qing'er, I'm afraid they will target you and your sister-in-law."

After all, I am old enough to be a grandmother.

"Mom, don't worry. In the past, you had your eldest brother and second brother to protect you, and now I will protect you." Xue Qing smiled with relief.

"Have you forgotten how I beat Peng Gouzi last time?" he said, raising his fist.

"Qing'er, you have suffered a lot!" Liu had extra tears today, and after she said that she started crying again.

Songjia Village

Lobby of Mr. Song's House

Mr. Song, with his thin body, sat in a chair and drank this year's new tea slowly.

Sitting below was an old woman dressed in red and green. Ever since he announced his intention to get married, the matchmakers who came to his door every day would trample the threshold to pieces.

"Mr. Song, I guarantee you will be satisfied with the matchmaking I'm introducing to you today." Seeing that Mr. Song didn't even raise his eyelids, the old woman pulled her handkerchief awkwardly.

"This woman is from the capital. She is unlucky in marriage and bad in childbearing. She is destined to have many children and good fortune."

Mr. Song finally showed some interest and put down his teacup: "Tell me about it in detail."

When the matchmaker saw that Mr. Song was interested, she boldly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "This lady is in her 30s, with fair skin and tender flesh. Although she has lived here for more than ten years, she still looks like a lady from a wealthy family at first glance."

Looking at the increasingly excited look on Mr. Song's face, he felt somewhat proud. Not only could he earn a large sum of money, but he could also outdo other matchmakers. From now on, he would be the most powerful matchmaker in the surrounding villages. Let's see who dares to look down on him!

Mr. Song’s heart is getting more and more itchy!
