Wang Jieba pretended not to understand what Zhu Ergou said, "What kind of idea is that? Of course I hope my own son-in-law gets better."

Wang Jieba kept saying a lot of good things about Zhang San, and the two of them kept chatting there. Some villagers were curious and wanted to stand next to them and eavesdrop.

Zhu Ergou was too embarrassed to ask any more questions.

Wang Jieba walked away proudly. Humph, I can see your little tricks. You want to pick up your daughter Wang Dami for free? Don't even think about it. Without 600 taels of silver, no one should think about marrying your daughter. Humph, you shameless rubbish.

"We are all thousand-year-old foxes. What kind of Liao Zhai tricks are you playing with me?"

When Wang Jieba got home, he was sitting with his legs crossed proudly, drinking tea leisurely, with the most famous Zuixian Cake in town placed next to him.

When Wang Dami came back and saw his father looking so relaxed and at ease, he was filled with envy.

Dad's life was really comfortable, unlike me who had to work hard in the workshop to earn a little money. Many people in the village would fight to get this much money.

That little bit of silver was not enough for me to go to the capital to buy rouge and powder.

Wang Jieba now sees his daughter Wang Dami as a golden hen that lays eggs and is good at making money.

The more Wang Jieba looked at his daughter, the more satisfied he became. He was extremely satisfied.

Wang Dami felt a little scared when his father looked at him.

"Dad, what are you looking at? You look so proud, as if you are sizing up some merchandise. Your eyes are weird, and they don't make me feel comfortable at all."

Wang Jieba finally came to his senses, "Dami, my dear daughter, your mother is really good at giving birth to a good girl like you. Dad's good life in the second half of his life depends on you."

Wang Dami's eyes turned cold.

Zhang San was listening to the conversation between the father and daughter inside and felt uncomfortable.

After working hard for half of my life, I end up making wedding dresses for others.

I hope I can live forever, so that my house will always be mine. If I die early, then the house will belong to Wang Dami.

Zhang San had another bad guess in his mind, wondering if his parents were killed by Wang Dami and his daughter.

But her mother saw with her own eyes that she was pushed by Li Ji and Youshi, but she couldn't be sure about her father.

Zhang San thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

When Zhu Ergou returned home, Aunt Zhu was obviously unhappy, but Zhu Ergou was her son, her beloved baby, and she usually couldn't bear to say a harsh word to him. Although she was unhappy today, she was even more reluctant to do so.

Zhu Ergou was in a bad mood when he came home and saw the cold stove in the house. "Mom, why don't you cook? I'm hungry."

Aunt Zhu said unhappily, "You are hungry, but I am not."

"Mom, don't be like this, I'm really hungry, go and cook."

"Drink the wind."

"Drink the wind, mother, how can you get full by drinking the wind?"

Zhu Ergou laughed wickedly.

"Mom, please go quickly, I'm really hungry."

Although Zhu Ergou seemed angry, he was not angry at all. Zhang San was a useless person now. His mother and father were both dead. He was very happy recently and even ate three more bowls of rice.

The more Aunt Zhu looked at Zhu Ergou, the angrier she got. "Ergou, if you're hungry, go drink the wind. Drink from the east, south, west, and north winds in turn and you'll be full. When I was young, I followed your father. It was hard back then, but I got through it that way and raised you. Look, you've grown so big and strong now."

Zhu Ergou was confused. He didn't make his mother angry today. So what did he do to make her angry?

"Mom, did I do anything to piss you off? You're acting weird today."

"Er Gou, tell me honestly, are you still obsessed with that bitch Wang Dami?"

"Mom, you can't say that about Da Mi. She is not a bitch at all. She is very good. She is good in every way. In my heart, Da Mi is the best woman in the world."

"Look, look, what are you talking about? Everyone in the village knows what kind of rubbish Wang Dami is. Look, how many people in the village like her? Women in the village don't talk to her. You are the only one who can't be shaken off."

"Mom, the women in the village don't talk to her because they are jealous of Da Mi and her beauty. The women in the village are all ugly and can't compare to my Da Mi."

"Shut up, she's not your rice."

Aunt Zhu was really angry. Although Wang Dami was indeed good-looking, women never wanted to hear the truth.

What she doesn't like even more is when the man she cares about says nice things about herself when she hates women and says that she is beautiful and the only one in the village.

Aunt Zhu's resentment grew even stronger after hearing this. "Zhu Ergou, I'm telling you, Wang Dami is a married woman now, so don't even think about hitting on her. You'd better be quiet and honest."

Zhu Ergou looked at his mother and said, "Mom, you are a country woman, what do you know?"

Aunt Zhu didn't think so much now, she just raised her hand and slapped him, slap slap slap.

Zhu Ergou's head was buzzing after being beaten...

"Mom, you are really crazy. I think you really have nothing to do all day. Why don't you go to work in the workshop in town? You can earn some money every day so that I can marry a wife."

Aunt Zhu heard this and said, "Did that Wang Dami instigate you? Don't think I don't know that the brown sugar in the house is gone. Who did you give it to?"

"And last time, a large can of lard was lost from our house. Where did it go? Where did it go?"

Zhu Ergou felt very guilty.

"Mom, I'm doing this for the good of our family. Do you want to live in a big house with blue bricks and tiles?"

When Aunt Zhu heard this, her heart was filled with joy. Her son still felt sorry for her.

"My son, you want to build a big house with blue bricks and tiles, but our family doesn't have that much money. Who wouldn't want to live in such a nice house? I, your mother, like it very much, my son."

When Zhu Ergou heard what his mother said, he thought it was a good idea and that Wang Dami would definitely be his woman.

"Mom, what do you think of Zhang San's big blue brick and tile house?"

"It's good, it's very grand, although it's not as good as the blue brick and tile house at Yuntao's house, but it's better than the one at the village chief's house."

Aunt Zhu really likes Zhang San's big blue brick and tile house from the bottom of her heart.

"My son, no matter how good that house is, it's not ours, so don't think about it anymore."

"You have seen the conditions at home. We have no money and are very poor."

There were only two people in Zhu Ergou's family. Although Aunt Zhu was hardworking, she was just an old woman. She had limited labor and could not do much work in the fields.

Let her go work in the workshop. She is old, and Yuntao doesn't dare to hire an old woman, for fear that something might happen in the workshop and she wouldn't be able to explain it.

Those who work in the workshops in the village are all young people, while the older people do odd jobs at home or work in the fields.

"Mom, what do you think about me marrying Wang Dami?"
