The people in this village are unreliable.

Fortunately, there is always a way out. Changsheng got married and the Yue family is a good family. Shen Lianchuan finally felt better.

"I'll discuss this with Changshengnai later." said Sixth Grandpa.

Sixth Grandpa knew a little about Shen Wu's thoughts, and he also knew that people were worried about Changsheng's wife staying in the village.

Although today's matter ended with borrowing money, who knows if the villagers have other intentions?

If he really didn't treat patients and lived in the village, it would be unacceptable for everyone in the village to complain.

Therefore, he did not reject Shen Wu's proposal.

The Shen family was discussing leaving Taohua Village, while the Gu and Tian families were in a commotion.

As soon as Lou returned home with her child, her mother-in-law snatched away the silver. She begged her mother-in-law to leave her some, but old Ma refused to leave her a single cent.

When the sisters-in-law saw that the mother-in-law had taken the silver, they swarmed into her room, all clamoring to find wives for their sons.

Old Ma's nineteen grandchildren gathered outside the door, staring at the people in the house.

Gu Laotian was sitting on the doorstep, a bamboo pipe in his mouth.

There was a fierce quarrel in the room behind him.

"I am the eldest in my family, but also the eldest grandson, so I have to be the first to marry. If my older brother doesn't marry, how can my younger brother marry? There is no such precedent in the entire Taohua Village!" Little Ma looked at her mother-in-law eagerly.

The third sister was not to be outdone, and immediately grabbed Ma's pulse, "Second sister-in-law, it is true that your eldest son is the eldest grandson, but he is too old, he is almost thirty, which girl would be willing to marry him?

You want to find a wife for the eldest brother, how much money will it cost? The money for him to find a wife is enough for the younger brothers to find two wives. "

When Mrs. Ma heard this, she thought it made sense.

It would be best if you could marry the most wives with the least amount of money.

Seeing that what the third sister-in-law said was interesting, the fourth brother's wife immediately agreed, "Third sister-in-law is right. My sister-in-law from my mother's family said that my niece is about the same age as the third brother. It only costs six taels of silver to marry my niece from my mother's family."

The third son's family sneered, "What kind of girl wants six taels of silver? My sister-in-law said that she would marry my niece to my eighth son for four taels of silver. Mom, this is more cost-effective than marrying off the eldest son!"

"Yes, mother, go ask around. A man who is almost thirty years old and wants to marry a wife will usually want a lot of money. You should consider the situation in our family."

The third and fourth sons saw that Mrs. Ma hadn't spoken for a long time and thought that she was still on the side of her niece, so they joined forces to persuade the mother-in-law without thinking.

Little Ma was anxious and kept talking about the order of seniority.

What she was talking about was also a problem, and the sisters-in-law were arguing over it.

Mrs. Lou sat in the broken mud house and looked into the eyes of her already mentally retarded daughter.

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard old Ma’s shouting from the front.

"Lou, it's getting dark, hurry up and cook. Nothing colorful!"

When Mrs. Lou heard Mrs. Ma calling her to cook, she subconsciously stood up and went out.

As soon as she left, Xiaocao, who had been sitting quietly beside the bed, also stood up and went out.

When Mrs. Lou saw her daughter following her, she didn't say anything. She took her daughter silently into Mrs. Ma's room to get food.

When the three sisters-in-law saw Lou enter the house, they subconsciously stopped arguing and waited for Lou to take the food and leave.

Perhaps Mrs. Ma was in a good mood because she got the money today, so she didn't scold Mrs. Lou, and she even gave her two more handfuls of brown rice.

Even though they grabbed two more handfuls, for a family of more than twenty people, these two handfuls of rice were not enough for everyone to eat as much as they wanted. At most, they only made the porridge cooked by Lou a little thicker.

After Lou left Ma's room, the sisters-in-law continued to argue about whose son should get married first.

Xiao Ma loved her eldest son very much and was determined to find a wife for him.

She gave birth to the eldest son and grandson as soon as she entered the family, so she was more honored in front of her mother-in-law than the others. In addition, her mother-in-law was her aunt, so Xiao Ma always felt that she was better than her sisters-in-law.

She was not like her other three sisters-in-law. After she gave birth to a daughter, she did not receive a favorable response from her mother-in-law for several years.

For this reason, Xiao Ma was glad that she had a son when she first entered the family. Based on her understanding of her aunt, if she had given birth to a daughter as her first child after entering the family, she would probably have been treated the same as her sisters-in-law.

Therefore, Xiao Ma liked her eldest son from the bottom of her heart, who had brought her face for more than 20 years.

In order to find a wife for her eldest son, Xiao Ma was also trying her best. The quarrel was so intense that they were almost about to roll up their sleeves and fight.

In the kitchen, Lou listened to the noise in the east room in front, staring at the vegetable porridge in the pot with gloomy eyes.

She stared at it for a long time, her eyes glancing intentionally or unintentionally at the broken bowl under the cupboard.

Mrs. Lou stirred the vegetable porridge in the pot twice with a long-handled spoon.

……

Old Mrs. Ma calculated the money in the family for a long time and finally came up with a number that she was quite satisfied with.

"Okay, stop arguing. When it comes to marrying a daughter-in-law, marry each wife, except the eldest wife."

"What?" Xiao Ma looked at her mother-in-law in disbelief, as if asking if there was so much silver in the family?

The other two also couldn't hide their surprise on their faces.

This normally stingy person has also started plucking feathers? How unbelievable!

really.

"Third and fourth brothers, you are finding wives for your sons, you can't let me, the mother-in-law, do everything!

You must have picked up some gold beans in the west of the village some time ago. How about this, you take out the money you have, and if it's not enough, I'll give you some more and marry a new wife for each of your two families. What do you think?"

The third and fourth brothers looked at each other.

"Mom, I gave you all the gold beans I picked up some time ago. How can I have any silver now?" The third brother refused to admit it.

The fourth wife also had a bitter face, "Mom! What kind of person am I? How could you not know? How could I hide the silver?"

"Okay, stop crying. You all know how much money we have at home. If you are not willing to give it to me, I will find a wife for the eldest brother."

"No, mother-in-law. If we let my eldest brother marry alone, our little fortune will be completely wiped out!"

Things are back to square one.

It was not until Mrs. Ma got angry that the two daughters-in-law handed over their private property.

Little Ma and her mother-in-law have always been as close as mother and daughter. Even if she hides some private money, old Ma would not care.

Finally, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law unanimously decided that no matter how old they were, they would first marry the child of the third room who was of the right age. Those who were too old or younger would have to wait!

When Mrs. Lou heard the voice in front of her finally stopped, her eyes swept towards the broken bowl under the cupboard again.

She walked to the cupboard as if possessed, squatted down, and took out the broken bowl from under the cupboard.

When Mrs. Lou put the broken bowl back under the cupboard, her hands were shaking.

Well, she would give her mother-in-law and the others another chance. If they left some way out for her and her daughter, she would leave everyone a way out.

Mrs. Lou took a deep breath and hunched over as she walked towards her mother-in-law's room in front.
