Their family was already very poor, and among the 15 taels of silver, five taels of silver were borrowed from Aunt Wang's house next door, and they originally planned to return the money to her after the wheat harvest.Fortunately, it's not time to harvest the wheat, and I owe Doctor Yu a lot of money for medicinal materials.

Their family has not had enough food for four days in a row. Every day, they only eat rice soup with wild vegetables. They can eat enough food. They can only be half-starved every day. It is still a few days before the wheat harvest. I don’t know if their family can eat until the time of the wheat harvest.

In the kitchen, smoke billowed.

Qian held the small bowl with a gap in one hand, and picked up a spoon in the other hand to fill a bowl of rice soup from the big pot. The sparse rice soup didn't have a small gap. After filling it, he put it on the chopping board.Then he shouted into the house: "Shu'er, come to the kitchen."

Seeing Yuan Shu coming out of the house slowly, Qian was washing the vegetables in his hands, looked at the rice soup on the chopping board, and said, "Shu'er, take this bowl of rice soup and feed it to her, I will wash the dishes It can be burned as soon as it is finished, and we can have lunch later.

Just after feeding the medicine, Yuan Shu's stomach was full of anger and there was nowhere to vent her anger. Seeing that Qian Shi asked her to serve that woman again, she refused to kill her this time, and she directly refused: "I No, I want to go to you." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

"Stop!" Qian yelled towards Yuan Shu's back.

Hearing this, Yuan Shu immediately stopped in her tracks, with a thud in her heart, she suddenly had a bad premonition, and as expected, what her mother said later made her unable to resist.

"Hey—you're so courageous, aren't you! Your wings are hard, aren't you! You dare to talk back to your mother, don't you! Is it easy for your mother, a widow, to bring you and your brother up? Don't you think? Your mother is useless, she has no ability to lead you to a happy life..."

"Stop!" Yuan Shu turned around and rolled her eyes, her mother knew this trick, she knew that she was afraid of softness but not hard, so her mother's trick didn't work for her.Who told their father to leave early? It was her mother who worked so hard to bring them up!

"Go, can't I go?" Yuan Shu stomped her feet, vented her dissatisfaction, picked up the small bowl on the chopping board, and walked into the house angrily.

Looking at the back of Yuan Shu going away, Qian sighed heavily.She knew that Yuan Shu felt aggrieved after taking care of the new daughter-in-law on the bed these days, but how could she feel better in her heart!

A few days ago, she saw that the old Zhao family bought a new daughter-in-law for her son Zhao Wu from the town. Zhao's house was kept clean.The old Zhao family was of course happy to have bought such a good daughter-in-law. Aunt Liu, the daughter-in-law of the old Zhao family, would tell everyone how good her daughter-in-law is, fearing that others would not know.

No one in the village knows the situation of the old Zhao's family. Their family is considered poor in the village. Everyone knows in their hearts that if the family of a serious girl doesn't like Zhao Wu at all, or Zhao Wu is over 23 years old. Wu will not delay until now and has not yet married a wife. You must know that the marriages in the village are early. For men like Zhao Wu's age, their children have already run all over the hillside.

Speaking of the money for buying a daughter-in-law, it was saved by the old Zhao family by tightening their belts. If there was not enough money, they asked other people to make up a little bit, and this was enough to buy a daughter-in-law from the town for 16 taels of silver. .
