Old Man Wang was disgusted by the way Old Lady Wang was getting more and more aggressive. He thought about how Old Lady Wang had been doing all these years since they got married, and she was still a stubborn person. Now that he had children and grandchildren, he hated her even more.

Just when Mrs. Wang was feeling proud, Mr. Wang said, "Old woman, over the years, do you think I've been good to you? You've been so arrogant at home, even though you did suffer a lot from your mother when she was around. But which daughter-in-law didn't go through this? Ask yourself, in the whole village, which man is as good to his wife as I am, and so obedient. Do you really think I don't know the nickname they gave me in the village? I just tolerated you, gave in to you, and spoiled you, but you pushed it too far and didn't know what was good for you. It's impossible for Dazhuang to marry Caihua from your brother's family."

"Although I don't know Caihua very well, she has a very bad reputation in her village. I would rather our Dazhuang marry a widow than marry Caihua. You should just give up on this idea."

"Da Zhuang is our grandson, so don't even think about getting involved in this matter."

After saying this, Old Man Wang left.

When Wang Dali saw his parents arguing, he quickly ran over to ask.

"Dad, what's going on between you and mom? You rarely quarreled over the years. Why did you quarrel so badly today?"

"Da Li, Da Zhuang is also my grandson, and your mother's grandson as well. How could your mother be so cruel? She planned to let Da Zhuang marry Cai Hua from her mother's family. You know who Cai Hua is. Such a woman must not enter our family, otherwise our family will suffer misfortune and never have peace."

"Dad, Mom is the one who makes the decision on this matter. We can't change her mind. Xiaomei and I don't agree with this matter. Now we are hiding this matter from Dazhuang. We don't dare to let Dazhuang know at all."

"Let's keep this a secret for now. After all, it hasn't been finalized yet. Otherwise, Da Zhuang will make a fuss once he finds out. The main thing now is what to do with your mother. He wants them to get married because he wants to commit suicide. If they can't live together anymore, let your mother go back to her parents' home to retire."

Wang Dali was shocked when he heard this, "Dad, you are planning to divorce mom, but mom has not violated any of the seven grounds for divorce."

"What if your mother is determined that Dazhuang should marry Caihua? What do you think?"

I, Wang Dali, stammered and couldn't speak.

At this time, Da Zhuang heard it outside the door and pushed it open.

"Grandfather, Dad, I will never marry Cousin Cauliflower. Everyone in the family knows what kind of person Cousin Cauliflower is. Why do you want me to marry her? Besides, what's the benefit of marrying her? There is no benefit at all. The only benefit is that I will become famous. Everyone in the neighborhood knows that I, Wang Dazhuang, am a sucker."

"I don't want that piece of trash. If you want to marry her, go and marry her yourselves. I won't marry her myself. If you really want me to marry her, I'll jump into the river and die." After saying that, Wang Dazhuang turned around and left.

The father and son were stunned. They didn't expect Da Zhuang to have a personality like a girl, who was looking for death whether he came or not.

Let's talk about this later. Let's put it here for later. Anyway, the marriage is impossible.

"Yun Tao, An Niang looked at her hesitantly, wanting to say something. I have found out what you asked me to find out before."

"The cauliflower your mother-in-law mentioned is his brother's granddaughter. The girl is very strong, tall and mighty, and of course she has a huge appetite. She is famous for being a big eater, and her family can't stand her appetite. These are not the main points. The main point is that she has a bad reputation, a bad temper, and is not a virtuous person. I heard that she eloped with a man several years ago, and came back less than half a year later. I don't know if this is true, but there are rumors saying so."

There is no smoke without fire. Since there is this rumor, it is most likely true, but it is hard to say for sure.

"Ann, this thatched house is too small. It's not very convenient for us now. Besides, Da Niu, Er Niu, and San Niu will get married and have children in the future. The house must be built big. I plan to rebuild the house, so I will stop working for the next few days. Can you help me cook? I plan to provide meals, and the daily wage is still 20 cents. The head of your family will come to build the house. I will ask my eldest brother and others to come when the time comes to choose the other people."

When An Niang first heard that they would not be able to work for a while, she felt sad. Two people would be short of 2 coins a day, which would be 40 coins in ten days. Just when she was feeling sad, Yun Tao said that she would cook and build houses. She immediately became happy.

"Yun Tao, leave this matter to me. Although my cooking is not as good as the chefs in the restaurant, the taste of my food is famous in the surrounding area."

"Then it's settled. You don't have to come so early tomorrow morning. Just make lunch."

An Niang left happily, very happy.

"Brother, second brother, third brother, I plan to build a new house tomorrow. I want to build a big brick and tile house. Anyway, sooner or later we will need a big house, so let's just do it in one go. I have already decided on the materials, and they will be delivered in time tomorrow. As for manpower, I have found someone you know in our village, Tiezhu. An Niang cooks, but we still don't have enough manpower. I want to speed up the progress of repairing this house. As for manpower, can you find some more people in your village to build the house? The wage is still 20 cents a day, and I will provide a meal at noon, but not dinner. What do you think?"

"Little sister, are you sure you want to provide meals? Farmers are very big eaters, and it's not easy to feed dozens of people. Besides, you can get 20 cents for working in the village without going to town, which is already a high salary. They can't even laugh, let alone provide meals. Other families won't even provide meals."

"Brother, then it's settled. You've worked hard these past few days, and you'll have to work even harder starting tomorrow. This is the blueprint of a house that I specially asked someone in town to design. Do you understand it?"

"Little sister, don't worry. We understand all of this. Have you forgotten me, your third brother? I'm an expert at building houses. This house you built is so spacious. It must have cost several hundred silver coins. It's not simple. I see there are eight rooms, not including the peach house and the kitchen you mentioned, and the storage room you mentioned. You also marked the area of each room, which is not small. And the shape you requested."

"Don't worry. Since I've decided to build a house, I've definitely prepared the money. You don't have to worry about it. Besides, the three of them will get married in a few years, so it will be easier to talk about marriage when the house is bigger."
