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

Back then, Fang Yin and Fang Tong were both of marriageable age, but Fang Yin was a fool, so it didn't matter whether he was allowed to marry or not.

But Fang Tong can't do that. He's not stupid and makes all kinds of noise.

At that time, a group of people came to the village to escape famine. The girl in that family was beautiful. Fang Tong fell in love with her at first sight and wanted to marry her.

Since his family disagreed, he kept knocking on Fang Jin and Old Man Fang's doors in the middle of the night, saying that he couldn't bear to see them sleeping with their wives in their arms.

This went on so many times that the two of them were so angry that they didn't get a good night's sleep for nearly half a month.

I can't hit him, and I can't listen to him even if I scold him.

The only way is to discuss marriage.

At that time, Fang Jin was going to take the examination for a Tongsheng degree, and all the money was reserved for him. There was no money left for the betrothal gift. Finally, after consultation between the two families, they wrote an IOU.

It's considered as a betrothal gift.

The family didn't want the money, they just wanted to leave a note for their daughter so that she would have something to rely on and not be bullied.

After getting married, the third son's wife never asked for the money, and the matter was gradually forgotten.

Who would have thought that Fang Tong would suddenly bring this up today?

Seeing that Fang Tong was determined to achieve his goal, Old Man Fang and Fang Jin, father and son, looked at each other in bewilderment.

After all, they were still afraid that the third child would do something out of line, so the father and son went to a corner and discussed for a long time in whispers.

"San'er, calm down."

I don't know what the two of them discussed, but when they came back, the anger on Mr. Fang's face had subsided a lot. "Don't say those nonsense about Dad being partial. When you got married, your family really couldn't afford the money, but it's not that I didn't pay for you."

"The eldest son's wife is the daughter of a scholar, so the bride price is a bit high. In our village, the bride price for a normal marriage is three taels."

"You can take three taels of the ten taels of silver as your betrothal gift."

When he said this, Mr. Fang felt like his heart was bleeding.

That’s three taels of silver!

If the eldest son had not persuaded him not to provoke the third son, as they would be in the wrong if the situation got out of hand, he would not have given in no matter what.

"My eldest sister-in-law is the daughter of a scholar. Don't forget that my wife can also read and write."

Although my father-in-law's family had fled famine at that time, they were quite dignified.

Fang Jin couldn't help but say, "That family doesn't even have household registration documents. They're just refugees. Third brother, I advise you to quit while you're ahead and stop making trouble!"

"Brother, are you taking advantage of me? When you married me, you saved every penny to support your education. Now that I'm your wife, you're giving me the gift as a gift to show your filial piety? Do you really think I'm easy to bully..."

"San'er!"

A woman's cry interrupted him.

Old Mrs. Fang, who had been staying in the house, slowly walked out.

More than half of the woman's hair was white, and her body was a little hunched. She looked at Fang Tong, and there was a bit of complexity in her pair of vicissitudes of life eyes, and more of it was pleading.

"I beg you, my mother. Our family is really short of money. Sanwaer, you grew up under my watch. For the sake of me giving birth to you, please stop making trouble, okay?"

As he spoke, his voice trembled slightly.

When he met those eyes, Fang Tong felt a little depressed.

He actually knew it in his heart.

The Fang family members are all vengeful people, and he cannot marry into the family without giving any benefits to the family.

But his mother also forced him to...

Fang Tong let out a breath of frustration.

"to make."

When he was a child, he always fought with others. When he came home, his father beat him and his elder brother scolded him. Only his mother would mend his torn clothes in the moonlight.

Perhaps it was this little bit of maternal love that made him have unnecessary expectations.

He took out six taels of silver from his pocket and said, "Big brother spent ten taels to marry his wife. I only have four taels left now as the betrothal gift you owed me."

"If Dad and Big Brother think it's too little, then let's go talk to the elders now."

This was the biggest concession he could make.

Fang Tong was very calm when he said this.

But there is a sense of calm madness.

Fang Jin had no doubt that if they showed any dissatisfaction, Fang Tong would immediately run out to find the clan elders.

By then, the news that he had exchanged his daughter for a bride and the Fang family had exchanged their son for money would spread throughout the village.

Before Mr. Fang could say anything, Fang Jin took the money first and said, "Okay."

He gritted his teeth and said, "I've given you the money. From now on, third brother, don't say that dad is partial to me."

Old Master Fang snorted coldly, not wanting to look at the third son anymore, and strode into the house, followed closely by Old Lady Fang.

In the yard, his nephews and nieces all looked at him with unfriendly expressions.

Fang Tong didn't care about their attitude. He took his daughter's hand and walked into the house to pack his luggage.

He stood at the door with her arms folded. Whenever the father and daughter's hands touched something, her eyes would follow them intently, for fear that they would take away something valuable.

Fang Nanzhi felt a little uncomfortable and made faces at her aunt.

Turning around, the little girl pulled her father's hand.

"Dad, I will stay with you. You will always be my family."

Fang Tong was stunned for a moment, then realized his daughter was trying to comfort him. He patted her head and said, "Okay, and don't think too much, kid. Dad has wanted to leave for a long time."

There's actually nothing much to pack.

The father and daughter each had a quilt, two pieces of patched clothes, and the hair ornaments that Fang Tong had bought for his daughter over the years.

There is nothing superfluous at all.

The large square copper baskets were not even full.

Fang Nanzhi's small basket was not used at all. She carried it in and carried it out the same way.

Until we walked out of the door, no one from the Fang family came out to see us off.

The weather is hot, but people's hearts are cold.

The vague thread in Fang Tong's heart was completely broken the moment he stepped out of the door.

The roads in Mushan Village are dirt roads, and most of the houses in the village are thatched. The more sophisticated ones will build a fence outside the house, or build a mud wall with a mixture of mud and straw.

Although it was hot at noon, there were a few big trees on the road casting shade, so it was not too unbearable.

There were two or three old ladies sitting under the shade of the tree, fanning themselves.

I have to say, news spreads quickly in such a small place.

Seeing the father and daughter, the eyes of the maids lit up, "Oh, Mr. Fang."

"I heard you married into the Qin family? Are you moving your things there?"

Hearing the words "marry into the wife's family", Fang Tong did not feel ashamed and responded happily, even asking in return: "Yes, what's the matter, Aunt Liu, your son also wants to marry into the wife's family?"

Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment, then became anxious, "That's not true, don't talk nonsense!"

"Third brother, you are too pessimistic. Your eldest brother will study hard and become a high-ranking official in the future, and you will not be able to benefit from it."

Another old woman came to talk about the good things.

Fang Laosan was too lazy to pay attention. After the heavy rain, every household suffered a poor harvest. Although they had some old grain to eat, it would not last long.

Successful families all try to find ways to make money and buy food.

Only people with nothing to do come here to gossip.

Even under such circumstances, the news that Fang Tong brought his child to marry into his wife's family quickly spread throughout the village.

Qin family.

Qin Yan sat in a wheelchair, with a hint of sarcasm and anger in his eyes.

[I really don't know what happened, but I actually sent the reward!]

[Hehe, liar, get out of my mind. ]

Yes, he believed in the system again, but this time he completed the task but didn't get the reward.
