Chapter 346(1/2)

Seeing Yang Ruoqing finish her meal, Sun was very pleased.

She took the bowl and chopsticks and said to Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er, while we were cooking dinner earlier, your mother came over."

"What are you going to do with my milk?"

Yang Ruoqing asked.

Instinctively, a sense of vigilance arose in my heart.

Mrs. Sun looked happy and said, "Guess what?"

Yang Ruoqing smiled bitterly, "Should I come to borrow money?"

This time Yang Huamei poured out a bowl of tea and lost four taels of silver from the old Yang family.

Later, Uncle Wu will give Cai Cai to the Bao family, which is also a betrothal gift.

Wang Shuanzi still stayed in the county hospital to recuperate from his injuries.

Lao Yang's family will still have to pay later.

At this juncture, it is very likely that Mr. Tan came here to borrow money.

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's speculation, Mr. Sun was dumbfounded.

"Your mother caught a rooster for us," said Sun.

"ah"

Yang Ruoqing was stunned.

Are you hallucinating?

Tan unexpectedly

"Your mother said that your father hasn't eaten anything solid since he got sick. Come here and catch a rooster to replenish your father's body," Mrs. Sun continued.

The woman also had a look of emotion on her face.

"Your father and I don't want it, but we have to keep your breasts. Just drop the chicken and run away."

"Hey, your father and I have been thinking about this all night."

"Qing'er, what do you think of this chicken, should we take it or not?" Sun asked Yang Ruoqing for her opinion.

Yang Ruoqing said without hesitation, "I'll take it, I'll definitely take it."

Mrs. Sun said, "That's not good, okay. Your grandparents have had such a big incident happen this time, and they are very tight on money."

Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes.

"If Tang Yazi and I hadn't helped them recover the silver and horses, my father would have had to sell his land to pay for it."

"Compared to losing everything and being in debt, a mere rooster is nothing."

Yang Ruoqing asked.

When Mrs. Sun heard this, she struggled all night and finally made up her mind.

"Okay, tomorrow I will kill the rooster and stew it in a pot. Then I will call Tang Yazi over to eat together."

Sun said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

"Tang Yazi did a great job in this matter. Logically speaking, my grandma gave us chickens, so Tang Yazi should be kind to her," she said.

"No matter what, I'll kill the chicken tomorrow anyway, so it won't be in vain for grandma's efforts."

In the front yard, the lights were still on in Lao Yangtou and Tan's house.

They hadn't slept a wink all night, and neither of them felt sleepy at all.

Old Yang leaned his head on the bed and smoked a cigarette.

Mrs. Tan sat cross-legged on the outside of the bed doing needlework.

"Mother Meier, in addition to food crops and poultry and livestock in the backyard, our family still has a lot of cash."

Old Yangtou asked.

Mr. Tan said without raising his head, "There are not many left, I have five taels of silver left."

Lao Yangtou thought about it for a while and calculated it.

"In two days, I have to go to Bao's house to accept the lottery. The three festival gifts are converted into money. It doesn't look good if I can't give you more than two taels of silver."

"Before the wedding, I have to buy new clothes for my fifth daughter-in-law and buy clothes and shoes for her family. It will cost at least four to five hundred yuan."

"Looking back on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, if there is no wife coming in, it will cost two taels of silver to buy a banquet for the whole village."

"Gifts from relatives and friends should be worth one tael of silver."

"To sum it all up, we need to prepare more than three taels of silver for the fifth time we get married."

"Lao Wang's family has already paid more than two taels of silver to go in."

"When Wang Shuanzi returns to the village later, we have to buy some supplements and visit him."

"If you calculate this, we won't be able to save even half a penny within the year."

After hearing Lao Yangtou's calculation, Mr. Tan no longer had the heart to do any work.

"I've already given my fifth daughter the money to get married, so there won't be any hair left from Mei'er's dowry."

She looked dissatisfied and muttered.

"Anyway, that girl from the Bao family is also an old girl. Everything about the bride price and other things should be kept simple."

"We won't hold a banquet for the whole village, so we can hold a two-table banquet for relatives and friends," she said.

Old Yangtou was unhappy.

"When each of the five sons marries a wife, the whole village will have a banquet."

"Why don't we do anything when we get to Lao Wu's place?"

"I can't believe that when I walk in the village, people will laugh at me," he said.

Mrs. Tan twitched her lips.

“The lining is almost gone, but I still worry about face.”

"I don't care. Of these five taels of silver, I have to leave three taels for my daughter's dowry."

"If you don't have enough money later, you can borrow it from the third child."

"They are now doing tofu business with restaurants in the town and they are rich," said Tan.

Old Yang shook his head.

"It's not possible, it's not possible. When we separated the family, we didn't give anything to the third bedroom."

"I can't bear to ask them for money after only a few months," he said.

"The situation is stronger than the people. I am really in a hurry. I have to open my arms even if I can't."

"Originally, I planned to leave five taels of silver for my daughter to prepare a dowry."

"It's only three taels now, and I feel so uncomfortable. Don't worry about even one cent."

Tan said.

Hearing this, Old Yang's face darkened.

"It's okay if you don't mention that evil obstacle. As soon as you mention her, my anger rises."

"She is the reason why our family is in this situation."

"Forget the dowry, if you bully Wang Shuanzi before entering the house, I'm afraid the marriage will be ruined," Old Yangtou said.

Tan said, "If you blow it, I'll pull it down. A family's adopted daughter will be asked by hundreds of families. I'll find someone better than Wang Shuanzi later."

"You are such a stupid bitch"

Old Yang was angry.

"If something like this happens, it's fine if you don't teach your daughter, but you still have this protective attitude."

"She has been ruined by you. No one from ten miles and eighty villages who knows her character dares to take her."

"If you don't dare to take it, pull it down. I'll stay at home and take care of my daughter."

Mrs. Tan put the dustpan in her hand heavily to the side, pulled the quilt over her head and went to sleep.

Old Yang was sitting alone on the bed, smoking a cigarette and sighing one after another.

Hey, now that I have no choice but to open my mouth with the third room,

After a long nap, I just ate a bowl of poached egg noodles.

Yang Ruoqing was now full of energy and energetic, with no sleepiness at all.

After coaxing Mrs. Sun to go back to her house to rest, Yang Ruoqing got off the ground.
