Chapter 68

Old Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Cai looked at each other, and both saw the devastation in each other's eyes.

Although Mrs. Cai looks much older than her actual age because she worries too much, Old Mrs. Bai is plump and strong because she enjoys life all day long!

However, it cannot be denied that Old Mrs. Bai is actually more than ten years older than Cai's mother!

One is sixty and the other is fifty.

How can a daughter-in-law be older than her mother-in-law?

If I marry her, who will serve whom?

Besides, Old Mrs. Bai is so old, how can she continue the Cai family’s lineage?

Cai's mother waved her hands repeatedly, "Who wants to spend money to marry an old woman? I won't even take it if you give me money. I'm looking for a bride for my son, not for me!"

Although Mrs. Cai's disdain made Old Lady Bai lose face, she did not forget that the most important thing was to marry Bai Ying off, so she quickly composed herself and started to criticize Zhou Li.

"What do you, an educated youth from outside, know? The girls here are all matched up by their families. She has to marry whatever family I recommend!" Old Mrs. Bai said with a very confident look.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ying looked surprised.

"Looking for a master" is their local dialect, which means looking for a husband's family or in-laws' family.

From childhood to adulthood, Old Lady Bai has said this to every one of her granddaughters. Perhaps others will gradually get used to it, but Bai Ying has always been disgusted by this word.

What is a master? Master?

Any independent person would not like to find a master to ride on her head and pee and shit on her. She would only be her own master!

"Grandma, feudal ideas are unacceptable!"

Bai Ying decisively counterattacked, "This is no longer the era of blind marriages, arranged by parents' orders and matchmakers' words. As the great leader said, everything will change. The decaying forces will give way to the new, smaller forces. The small forces will eventually become the larger forces, because the majority of people demand change. Only constant change can truly remain unchanged. Grandma, your awareness is not good enough. You need to reform yourself."

Bai Ying quoted a teacher's quotation, which was truly red and professional.

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone present applauded her.

The director of public security even glanced at Old Lady Bai and said coldly, "Ms. Bai Liu, do you want the brigade to hold a meeting to criticize you?"

"..."

Old Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Cai, two old ladies who came from the feudal era, were so angry that they almost fainted.

At this time, Bai Maozhong and Bai Hongbing, who had already started work, were finally called back. Together with them came Secretary Liu, the team leader and other cadres.

Secretary Liu defined the situation: "Dare to come to our brigade to cause trouble? Where are the militia? Quickly drive them away and don't let them come again!"

Upon hearing this, several militiamen immediately got ready to throw Cai's mother and Cai Dabao out of the village.

"Don't, don't come here!"

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Cai's mother said unwillingly, "How dare you! If you dare to touch me, I will report you to the commune revolutionary committee! I spent the betrothal money! What's wrong with taking my daughter-in-law away? I'm right even if I bring the matter to the revolutionary committee!"

Secretary Liu wasn't frightened. "This is a new society. If the woman doesn't want to, the marriage won't count."

"Then, then give me back my money! Give me back my money and I'll leave!"

Cai's mother rolled her eyes and continued, she had a lot of calculations in her mind, that Old Mrs. Bai was definitely not going to be able to come up with the money given her condition, and in the end she would still have to marry her granddaughter to her Bao Ge'er.
