After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Widow Qin:! ?

Qin Yan:!!

The usually calm mother and son both opened their mouths in surprise.

Facing the two people's surprised gazes, Fang Tong was not ashamed at all. He looked at Widow Qin and tried his best to promote himself.

"Don't be so hasty to reject me. You and your mother should think carefully. We need to take a long-term view. There are many benefits to me marrying into your family."

"First of all, more men in the family means more pillars of support."

Widow Qin suddenly felt a little sad. Over the years, her family had been harassed by the bachelors in the village. Fortunately, her son had grown up and those people had restrained themselves. But with her son's broken leg, those malicious glances came back.

"Secondly, I'm bringing my daughter into the family, not marrying her. This is equivalent to my father and I severing our ties with the Fang family. From now on, we'll be a true family, and you two won't have to worry about being wiped out."

This is true.

At this time, it is extremely shameful for a man to marry into a woman's family, which is basically equivalent to severing ties with his original family.

The third son of the Fang family is a ruthless person.

Qin Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and re-evaluated the man in front of him.

Fang Nanzhi was still waiting for his father to tell him the third benefit, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't get it.

The little girl imitated her father's tone and said, shaking her head, "The third one is, my father is handsome, he is the best father, and you will definitely not lose out if I let him marry into your family."

Fang Tong looked at his daughter, his eyes filled with love and touching. "Yes! This is the fourth one. My daughter is well-behaved, cute and smart. You won't lose out by having another daughter!"

The father and daughter even blew each other's praises.

Widow Qin was so confused that she didn't know what to say, and the situation became awkward.

A barely perceptible smile flashed across Qin Yan's eyes, then disappeared in a flash.

Widow Qin didn't react. Before she could say anything, Fang Tong continued, "I'm not lying. It's a famine right now, so it's not a big deal. When people get desperately hungry, even people from the same village won't be reliable. And your family has some financial problems, and everyone in the village knows about it."

First, Qin Yan's father was a scholar who taught for more than ten years and left a lot of wealth to the family.

The second is the money Qin Yan saved from hunting in recent years.

The Qin family is considered a wealthy family.

Now, Widow Qin hesitated.

She had also heard that in troubled times, there were many cases of people exchanging their own children for food.

Moreover, his son is now in a wheelchair, and he doesn't have any strong labor in the family. But he has money, so isn't he a fat sheep?

Widow Qin gritted her teeth and said, "I answer..."

"Mother." Qin Yan finally spoke, "We can't handle this casually."

Be careful not to let a wolf into the house.

The young man raised his eyes and looked directly at Fang Tong, "Uncle Fang, let's talk alone."

The two quickly went to the backyard to talk.

In the front room, only two people, one big and one small, were left staring at each other.

There was no point in just staring there. Widow Qin thought for a moment, stood up, and soon came back with a bowl of washed wild apricots.

"Girl, these apricots have been washed, try them." Widow Qin held her face with one hand and looked at her with a smile.

Although wild apricots are small, they are all ripe.

There are not many apricots that have ripened at this time. It can be seen that each one was specially selected by Widow Qin.

Fang Nanzhi didn't hesitate to pick one up with her little hand and put it in her mouth.

The flesh was sweet with a light fragrance, but the skin was sour, and Fang Nanzhi's face wrinkled with sourness.

"Hahaha." The more Widow Qin looked at the little girl, the cuter she found her. "The skin is a little sour, spit it out and put it aside."

Fang Nanzhi nodded obediently, peeled the skin and ate the remaining half, then did not take any more. Instead, she rummaged through her arms, took out a yellow object, and handed it to Widow Qin.

"Here, auntie, this is for you."

This is the bread she just took out from the system.

There were twenty small bags of bread in a big bag, and she specifically asked the system to help remove the packaging.

Widow Qin looked at the bread in her hand. Hmm, it looked like a bad steamed bun.

The woman didn't pay much attention and put the things in a bowl in the cupboard.

After a short period of getting along, Widow Qin had some understanding of Fang Nanzhi.

The little girl is well-educated and she likes her very much.

On the other hand, the atmosphere in the backyard cottage was not so good.

Qin Yan directly exposed the truth: "Uncle Fang, the benefits you just mentioned seem to indicate that my family has taken advantage of you. But in reality, Uncle Fang, your situation in the Fang family is also worrying, isn't it?"

This was a bit offensive, but Fang Tong didn't get angry. He replied, "Yes."

Hey, this kid is pretty smart.

Seeing that he was still honest, Qin Yan continued, "Then after you marry into the family, both parties will gain what they want."

Fang Tong smiled.

"Qin kid, I don't agree with what you said." Fang Tong sat down and said seriously, "After marrying into the family, the two families become one family, not a business."

family?

Qin Yan was skeptical about these three words.

In the silence, Fang Tong spoke first, "I know that I, Fang Lao San, have a bad reputation in the village, but when it comes to my wife and children, you can ask around. No one in the surrounding area can find fault with me."

Qin Yan thought of the rumors he had heard over the years about Fang Tong spoiling his daughter, and his heart was slightly shaken.

Four years ago, a village kid stole some candy from Fang Nanzhi, so Fang Tong put a sack on the kid's father and beat him for a month straight, forcing him to come and apologize and give him a bag of candy as compensation.

Two years ago, a little girl fell while digging wild vegetables and knocked out a tooth. Fang Tong found the small stone that tripped her, polished it into a stepping stone, and used it to pave the doorway, stepping on it every day to vent his anger.

People who are good to children can't be bad, but Qin Yan is unwilling to take the risk. He doesn't want to put his family's life and future in the hands of others.

But what Fang Tong had just said in the front room was right. In a famine, their family was a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

Right now, there is no better choice.

Fang Tong didn't say anything else. He waited quietly for the boy to think.

After a while, Qin Yan looked at him with a cold voice.

"If you want to marry into my family, I have two conditions."

"First, I will be the head of the household for two years and in charge of the family's finances. This requires written consent from the village elders."

"Second, I want a divorce letter for my mother."

As a son, he can make this divorce agreement effective if his mother is not doing well.

As for the money, he could accept a 50/50 split between the two parties as a reward for Fang Tong protecting them and their son.

Fang Tong once again marveled at the cleverness of the Qin family boy.

He knew very well that Qin Yan proposed these two conditions for Widow Qin.

"Okay, I promise you."

This is a promise unique to men and boys.

The two returned to the front room, and before they entered, they heard the laughter of the little girl and the woman coming from inside the room.

The boy's brows relaxed slightly.

Perhaps, this gamble may not be lost.

Widow Qin noticed the movement and turned around to meet her son's gaze.

Qin Yan nodded imperceptibly.

The two sides naturally began to discuss the next steps.

"Mom, let's not have a wedding banquet. Let's find the village chief and the elders to witness it tomorrow." Qin Yan turned his head and looked at the man. "As for the betrothal gift, it's still the agreed ten taels."

Fang Tong still smiled and said, "Okay, I'll follow your arrangement. But you don't have to give the money to the Fang family, just give it to me."

After that, the two of them briefly finalized some small details. After that, Qin Yan looked at his mother and said, "Mom, do you have anything to add?"
