Yuan Junyao shook her head in amusement, ignored him, and happily started eating the candied haws.

Yuan Shisheng said seriously, "Okay, we've eaten and played, it's time to go home."

The main reason was that he was afraid that Yuan Junyao would spend money again.

Yuan Junyao shook her head and said, "No, I haven't bought anything yet."

Yuan Shisheng glared again and said unhappily, "What do you want to buy now? It's already cost you over a hundred coins, and you still want to spend more? You only earned five hundred coins in total, not five hundred taels! People working outside only make a few coins a day."

Yuan Junyao said seriously, "I'm not wasting money. Can't I buy some rice, flour, grain, and oil? Can't I cut a piece of pork and make braised pork at home tonight?"

I am a daughter who is married off and I don’t know when I can return to my husband’s family. Just consider it as my payment for food expenses, okay?

Yuan Shisheng was speechless after being criticized, and his face even turned black with anger.

But the last time Yuan Junyao came back to complain, he said something like a daughter who is married off is like spilled water.

So now he is shooting himself in the foot.

But he was doing it for her own good. Even if he had money, he shouldn't spend it like that. If he had some money, his life wouldn't be so difficult.

Yuan Junyao knew in her heart that Yuan Shisheng would definitely feel uncomfortable if she said this.

From Yuan Shisheng's perspective, he was indeed doing it for his own good.

But sometimes Yuan Shisheng's words are really harsh.

There is obviously a generation gap between them, and their values ​​and ideas are different, so she doesn't bother with him.

They are both right from each other's perspective, but we cannot demand others to do the same as we have, as that would be too much to ask.

Yuan Junyao didn't want to argue with Yuan Shi, so she took everyone to the rice and flour shop.

Yuan Shisheng sighed and followed silently.

This daughter has completely changed after one month of marriage.

His mind is becoming more and more abnormal. Why does he spend so much money to treat these kids to meat buns? It's so much money. It makes him feel heartbroken.

Ninety cents can buy several pounds of meat.

In the past, she would never have been willing to spend money like this, and she would have carefully kept every penny.

As for what Yuan Junyao said about having divine help in her dream, he didn't take it seriously at all. He just thought that Yuan Junyao was mentally ill and talking nonsense.

After arriving at the rice and flour shop, Yuan Junyao asked about the price of rice and directly bought four kilograms of rice for three hundred coins.

She had more than a hundred coins left, so she went to buy two pounds of pork and one pound of beef, which cost twenty coins a pound.

Yuan Shisheng followed behind her. It really ached his heart to see her spending money like this. All the money he earned today was spent.

And it happened in front of so many children, in public, and his daughter was married, so he really couldn't hit or scold her. He could only watch with his hands on his chest.

No matter what he said, no one listened and kept arguing with him, leaving him speechless.

"Okay, I've bought the things."

Yuan Junyao was carrying rice in her left hand and pork and beef in her right hand, thinking that she would be exhausted if she walked back.

At this time, Yuan Shisheng took the rice from her hand, and his tone was filled with anger that was difficult to conceal.

"I'll get it. Now you can go home. You've spent all your money."

Yuan Junyao frowned and said, "How can we carry so many things? I'll go rent two ox carts and go back."

Yuan Shisheng was really angry now and shouted angrily, "You are not allowed to go!"

Yuan Junyao was speechless. If she wasn't afraid of scaring him to death, she really wanted to take out the forty taels and buy more things.

She was so busy eating that she was wearing old clothes and her shoes were torn. The soles of her shoes were almost worn out, and the stones on the road hurt her feet.

Yuan Junhe whispered, "Dad, sister, don't be angry, let me get the things, I have the strength!"

He originally wanted to take the rice from Yuan Shisheng's hand, but Yuan Shisheng refused to give it to him, so he could only take the meat from Yuan Junyao's hand.

Yuan Junyao didn't give it to him and turned away angrily.

Just walk back. This old-fashioned dad is so annoying.

Yuan Shisheng called all the children to go back together. No one dared to speak anymore. Everyone could see that Yuan Shisheng was very angry.

Yuan Junyao's shoes were really broken. Her feet hurt even more as she walked back, and she was almost limping halfway.

The sensible younger brothers were very considerate and quickly took everything from her hands.

Yuan Shisheng asked coldly with a stern face, "What's wrong with your foot?"

Yuan Junyao paused, lifted her foot and looked at the sole of her shoe, then said in a cold voice, "The sole is broken."

Yuan Shisheng took a look and saw that the soles of his shoes were indeed broken. His feet were red and broken from walking all the way.

He could see that these shoes were the ones Yuan Junyao had worn for many years before she got married.

"Why are you wearing worn-out shoes? Where are your shoes? Didn't your mother make you two pairs of shoes when you got married?"

Yuan Junyao said calmly, "My mother-in-law took it away and told me to keep it for me. She also took the clothes, bracelets and earrings she made for me."

Yuan Shisheng almost fainted from anger and accused him again, "Then why didn't you buy yourself a pair of shoes just now?"

Yuan Junyao glared at him.

"Why won't you let me rent a carriage? A pair of hemp shoes costs one cent, a pair of straw sandals costs seven or eight cents, and a pair of good embroidered shoes costs twenty cents. That's a lot of labor costs. I could make two pairs myself."

She said that on purpose. It's certainly not like she wouldn't buy shoes for herself, and it's even more impossible for her to make them herself.

She had originally intended to buy shoes, but then forgot about it. After buying these things, she no longer had enough money to buy shoes, but she had enough to rent an ox cart.

Yuan Shisheng didn't say anything. With a dark face, he threw the rice in his hand to his son and squatted down in front of Yuan Junyao.

"No matter how expensive it is, you have to buy a pair of shoes. Who told you to buy these useless things?"

Yuan Junyao almost died of anger again.

"How can these things be considered useless? Can't we eat them when we take them home? I just want everyone to have a good meal."

When Yuan Shisheng saw that she didn't come up, he immediately stood up and turned around to glare at her.

"Rice costs 75 yuan per pound, and brown rice is only 5 yuan. How long will 300 yuan of brown rice last us?"

Yuan Junyao was really speechless. It seemed that she had to find a reason to earn a few dozen taels of silver to show them as soon as possible, otherwise she would be nagged to death.

She had never met such a person in modern times. Even an old man in his seventies or eighties would not be like him.

But she knew that Yuan Shisheng was not a bad person and was doing it for her own good, but she was still very angry. It was really difficult to communicate with such pedantic and stubborn parents.

She was too lazy to pay attention to him and just limped back.

Yuan Shisheng stared at her limping, the veins on his forehead throbbing. He took three or two steps forward, grabbed her hand and pulled it behind her back.

"Why are you trying so hard? You're suffering for nothing. You think it's others who are in pain."

Yuan Junyao laughed angrily.

"It's all your fault. The injury is on my foot, but the pain is on your body."

Yuan Shisheng was speechless.
