Chapter 68
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she shuddered all over.
She yelled at the outside, “Mrs. Yang, you can’t give birth to a son! Why are you coming to my house in the middle of the night!”
Mai Miao’s mother was now refreshed and didn’t care about what Mrs. Lu said. She pushed the door open and said with a smile, “Don’t be so harsh. We still have to be relatives.”
“Bullshit! My family doesn’t have a daughter who is married off in place of a daughter, and your family doesn’t have a son. What kind of relatives are you talking about? You’re not sleeping in the middle of the night and come here to talk about dreams. Did you eat poisonous mushrooms?!”
Mrs. Lu saw her old enemy, who had framed her so much last time, and her eyes were about to burst into fire.
“You don’t want your only daughter to marry into my family, do you? Are you assured under my control?”
The angrier she got; the happier Mai Miao’s mother was now. “I’m not assured.”
“I’m not going to let my old daughter marry out. Although my family doesn’t have a son, your family does. My Mai Miao has taken a fancy to Lao Liu.” Mai Miao’s mother looked at Lao Liu.
She was smiling and satisfied no matter how she looked at him. She only had one daughter, so she had to pick a good one. She had observed all the young men in the village. The sixth son of the Lu family was about the same age as her daughter, had an interesting personality, and was not the kind of sly person who worked hard. He had no shortcomings and was a perfect match for her daughter. The only shortcoming was that he was the son of the Lu family.
For a moment, neither the old man nor the old lady Lu understood what she meant.
“If you don’t plan to let Mai Miao marry out, why did you bring her here?”
Shen Wu and Xu Yin knew what was going on. They looked at each other. They didn’t expect that this would not only be an opportunity for them to split up, but also for the sixth son of Lu.
They looked at each other and then looked at Mai Miao’s mother.
Mai Miao’s mother took out a small cloth bag, and then a stack of money, and put it on the table, “I know your family is short of money now. Here is fifty yuan.”
A neat stack of large and small bills.
This time, Old Lady Lu was even more confused. “
You are a chicken that doesn’t lay eggs. Why are you trying to be kind to me now…” “I am kind to others, but I am not kind to you.” Mai Miao’s mother said, “My Mai Miao likes Lu Feng. I will discuss it with her father. Since they are of similar age, it is not impossible. Lu Feng will marry into our family. You can regard this money as a betrothal gift.”
Old Man Lu thought he had heard it wrong. Seeing that she was serious, he frowned and said, “It is impossible. My son can’t marry into our family. Don’t think about it anymore. Take your money away.” Old
Lady Lu stood up and said, “What are you dreaming about!”
“I think you really ate poisonous mushrooms!”
She said and hit Mai Miao’s mother.
Lu Laoliu didn’t expect Mai Miao’s mother to come. Thinking about what she told Mai Miao, she must have told her when she went back. She took out so much money. Lu
Laoliu watched her mother beat the person away.
That was his wife and his food!!!
“Mom, don’t do it!” Lu Feng was in front.
Towards her own son, especially her youngest son who is now at home, Old Mrs. Lu still has some rationality. She frowned and said, “Get out of the way!”
“No, your mother beat her, why are you stopping her?”
Lu Feng blushed, “Mom, I like Mai Miao too.”
“Fifth brother is getting married, and I want to get married too.”
Old Mrs. Lu was confused. She stopped and pointed at Mai Miao’s mother and looked at her son, “Didn’t you hear what she said?”
“I heard it.” Lu Laoliu said.
Now Old Man Lu couldn’t hold it in any longer, “She asked you to marry into the Yang family, are you willing? Are you still a man?”
Lu Feng looked at his father, “I am willing!”
“I like wheat seedlings, and wheat seedlings can fill me up!”
Lu Laoliu said as he argued with his father, “Dad, I’m a man, but I can’t eat enough! If you want to find a wife for my fifth brother, the family will have even less money, and we won’t be able to eat even more.”
“What’s wrong with me marrying into the Yang family? The Yang family is in our village, and they give fifty yuan. Not many girls there want fifty yuan.” Lu Laoliu’s eyes turned red, “I don’t want the money. If you still think you still have a son like me, I can help you with anything in the future. If you think you don’t have a son like me anymore, you can use the money for your retirement…”
He then looked at his fifth brother, “You are willing to spend it on my fifth brother and help him find a wife.”
“I don’t count on you, Dad, to find a wife. I will find someone to marry me myself.”
…
Shen Wu originally thought that there was only the task of dividing the family today, but unexpectedly, the highlight was yet to come. Compared with the division of the family, marrying into the family was a trivial matter. Lu Laoliu’s words directly made the old man and the old woman breathless.
The old man held his pipe, his hands trembling with anger, “You are a rebellious son! Rebellious son!”
“I’m sorry to our ancestors!”
Lu Laoliu didn’t know why his brain split, “Dad, you said that the ancestors in our family tree are nonsense, whoever is famous is the descendant!”
Shen Wu couldn’t help it, and grabbed Lu Xuan’s arm with her fingers, laughing so hard that tears came out.
Xu Yin couldn’t hold it back either.
Old Man Lu was so angry that he threw his pipe at Lu Laoliu, “No! I don’t agree! Forget it in this life.”
“Take your money and get out of our house!”
Yang Maimiao’s mother took the money, separated a stack and handed it to Lu Feng, “No matter what, you take this, you are at the age of growing up, don’t starve.”
Lu Feng was stunned and said quickly, “No, I can’t take it.”
“Take it.” Yang Maimiao’s mother stuffed it into his pocket forcefully.
Then he looked at Old Lady Lu and said, “I really like this young man, Lu Feng. What I said today counts. If you ever regret it, you can find Lu Feng and tell Maimiao.”
Maimiao’s mother took the remaining money and went out.
After leaving the Lu family’s door, a figure came up to them, “Mom, how is it?”
“She didn’t agree.”
Yang Maimiao’s tone was a little disappointed, “Ah, hey.”
“It’s normal that she doesn’t agree. I agreed the first time I came. I suspected that old man and old lady Lu were up to no good.” He patted his daughter’s hand and said, “Don’t worry.”
The money she left with Lu Feng was not left in vain.
Yang Maimiao breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere in the Lu family’s house, which was already bad, dropped to freezing point.
No one expected such a thing to happen. They thought that the sixth brother was really bold and actually wanted to marry into the family…
Li Ping looked at everyone and whispered, “Then will we still divide the family?”
“If the sixth brother marries into the family, how much difference will the betrothal gift of fifty yuan be to one hundred and eighty-eight? If the difference is less, will we not divide the family?” After all, her family members are taking advantage.
Shen Wu said, “That’s one hundred and eighty-eight, three fifty’s are not enough.”
Li Ping thought so too and muttered, “Then let’s split up the family.”
Her son is getting married tonight, and the other sons are making a fuss about splitting up the family, and some are even wanting to marry into the Lu family’s family. Old man and old lady Lu seemed to have aged several years in an instant, and they sat there sighing.
Finally, it was Old Man Lu who raised his hand, “It’s getting late, we have to go to work tomorrow morning, let’s all go to bed.”
Before leaving, Lu Xuan said, “Dad, I can pay, but we have to split the family.”
Old Man Lu glared at him angrily, “You really are restless! It’s only been peaceful for a few years!”
“Dad, it’s a good thing to split the family. If something happens, it won’t implicate other people.”
Returning to her room, Shen Wu thought about what happened tonight. The family was not split as she wished, but it seemed that there was progress.
“Third brother, do you think Dad and Mom can agree?”
Lu Xuan wiped his body, looked at the distressed man under the lamp, and his heart softened, “Are you talking about splitting the family or the matter of sixth brother marrying into the family?”
