Chapter 884 No Good Words
As soon as these words were spoken, unlike the sons and grandsons who burst into laughter, the three sisters-in-law of the Liu family and Ma Shan, the granddaughter-in-law, had a hard time holding back their laughter.

Old Lady Gu looked at her children and grandchildren who were all laughing, and secretly sighed and shook her head, "You keep laughing. If your father hears you, it would be a rare thing if he doesn't go to the government office and sue you for being unfilial."

"That must be the petition written by my eldest brother." Gu Laosi said, "As for me, second brother and third brother, I am telling the truth at this moment.

If our father didn't still mention that my eldest brother is short of money and Dalang needs something every time he sees me, I would be happy for him to live with me.

To put it bluntly, my parents live with me, so how can you and my third brother let me suffer any loss? Only my eldest brother relies on our father's favoritism and is not afraid at all that our father will abandon him.

My parents live with me, and his family wants us to send things to them? I have done the math for his family. Last year alone, he made a lot of money by providing for his parents.

This is also one of the reasons why I dislike my eldest sister-in-law now. Not to mention your two families, my family is just short of sending fish, meat and vegetables to our mother, so what if she wants to eat a few more bites?
But how much can our mother eat alone, even if we add our father? Isn't it just a bargain for her family? She even said that her second daughter was killed by my husband and me.

To be honest, I have a daughter myself, and my niece has found a good family. Even if I can't get any benefit from my niece, can I still suffer a loss?"

That's true.

Among his four brothers, only the fourth one is very stingy and doesn't want to suffer any loss. But he is not a bad person. At most, he just wants to get no benefit, but he is too lazy to make trouble to act as a matchmaker.

Unlike the boss, like the dog that bites, it doesn’t bark…

"If you ask me, the most unlucky thing about Erniu is her mother. She always talks nonsense about what kind of family her daughter should find, and she still can't change even after her mother scolds her like that.

Now, it is said that my sister-in-law has high standards. Unless you are a wealthy scholar living in the city, don't even think about asking the official to come and ask for her daughter's hand in marriage.

She always thinks she is the smartest. I have never seen a woman more stupid than her. Here she shows off Liu Lang and San Ya, and there she says Liu Lang is not as good as Da Lang.

Xiao Sanyuan is not as good as her son? Do you think everyone is blind? If my brother-in-law and his wife want to marry into her family, can I let my wife find out what the third sister-in-law wants?

I was so angry that she even hit my wife. My mother, as a mother-in-law, never raised a finger against her daughter-in-law, but she bullied everyone!"

The fourth brother is so cunning!
This is said to her, the second sister-in-law. No matter how bad his mother is, she never hit her. But why doesn't she say that your eldest sister-in-law is the thug raised by your mother?
Now it's your wife's turn, and I feel heartache!
Liu originally wanted to wait and hear when Gu Laosi would mention the time he went to see Old Lady Gu and what Old Lady Gu said, but now she was too lazy to listen anymore.

Why not do something else instead of listening to fun?

She simply used the excuse that she had just arrived home and had to take care of household chores, and asked her eldest daughter-in-law Ma Shan to accompany Wang and Fang, while she quietly left the side hall from the ladies' table.

Wang and Fang didn't think much about it.

The second branch is now wealthy and powerful, and Zhou Banxia is about to give birth. As the mother-in-law, Liu has been away for such a long time and naturally has a lot to do when she comes back.

Liu was able to come back and have dinner with her two sisters-in-law first, and she also asked her eldest daughter-in-law to accompany her two sisters-in-law before leaving. Fang felt that this second sister-in-law was very considerate.

Seeing Liu leave, Wang began to move her buttocks and change chairs to sit closer to the screen. She also hurriedly and carefully moved closer to the screen, and waved to Ma Shan.

Ma Shan: I don’t know whether I should say it or not. Actually, the person on the other end can be seen through the screen. As long as I don’t make any noise to interrupt what the other end is saying, there’s no need to be sneaky.

"…If Liu Lang hadn't happened to be with me that day, even if I refused to admit that my wife was bullied by my sister-in-law, my brother-in-law would have taken out his anger on my wife.

When he was still a kid, he said lightly that his sister had never quarreled with anyone since she was little, and if she quarreled, she would be right just because she was the "senior". And my elder brother, when he came back from the city, he said something nice, but I couldn't hear that he was saying something bad about my elder sister-in-law, but he was scolding my husband and I for not respecting our elder sister-in-law.

He thought I was fooling you, but you, now that you have seen clearly what kind of person he is, are still unwilling to listen to his lies. It's because you spoiled him and made him take everything for granted.

If you didn't indulge them, I wouldn't have been forced by the old man to stay away from school. Even if I couldn't become a top scholar, I might have become a scholar.

Why are you looking at me? Am I wrong? I think you are biased just like dad. We are brothers, you are the elder and I am the younger, why don't you feel more sorry for me?"

Being pointed out by the "you you you", Gu Erzhu put down his chopsticks in a helpless smile, "I know, it's my fault, I was stupid enough to spoil dad and the eldest brother, okay?
You're the only one who still has the nerve to complain about your studies. Do I not care about you? Did I tell you to stop listening to your father and just go to school and wait for me to come back?

If you want to blame someone, blame my mother. She can't stand seeing me with even a copper coin. Before our family split up, every time I came back from outside, my mother would catch me—"

Seeing that she was about to be "affected by the war", Mrs. Gu interrupted him hastily, "Come on, stop talking nonsense. The whole family has tightened their belts to support your eldest brother's education."

"Listen!" Gu Erzhu pointed his finger at Gu Laosi in mid-air, "Your mother is only partial to you, the oldest son? The eldest son is the one who is truly favored——"

"Second!"

Gu Erzhu immediately retracted his fingers and covered his forehead with his hands. "I've drunk too much. I can't stand up. Mom, tell me."

"..." Old Lady Gu laughed angrily at this damned boy, "How could I have given birth to such a son? You are so capable, and you did something bad right under my nose!"

"Then if you can only choose one between the eldest and the fourth, who would you choose?"

"…I choose you."

"Hahaha... I'm dying of laughter. If you don't pause for a moment before you pick on me, your son will really believe that you don't understand what he means."

As he spoke, Gu Erzhu placed his hand on Old Lady Gu's shoulder and leaned close to her ear, "Oh my dear mother, I won't tell you, Old Four, just listen.

Ever since my father went to the Zhao family to propose marriage to the eldest brother without telling me, I know better than anyone that not only my father but you also treat the eldest brother as your eye.

Otherwise, how dare my father go to the Zhao family to propose marriage without your consent when my eldest brother and your niece are engaged? Does this mean that you don't even want your mother's family for the sake of your eldest brother?"

"Second!"

"You said."

"Say your mother's head—"

"That's fine, but don't be angry. Just like before, in order to conceal this old incident, guess what Mr. Zhao said to me this time?"

"What else can he say—"

"Too much. I... well, let's not talk about it. The boss also took the gift box produced by San Ya's workshop to Huang County Magistrate before the New Year. I'd better stop while I'm ahead. Don't let me blame you for not saving your life if you die one day."
