Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 912: The uncle is still thoughtful
What's the big deal about being two or three years older? A girl who is three years older than you is a treasure. But it's not because the girl is two or three years older than Xiaohe, nor is it because the girl is not good.

Li thought that not only the child's father, but she too had already taken a fancy to Baoya, but her in-laws might not like Xiaohe. Xiaohe's marriage would depend on what his uncle and uncle said.

She subconsciously glanced at her third uncle who was chatting with her eldest son and youngest son not far away. Fortunately, it seemed that the third uncle was not paying attention to them at all.

"That's what I mean, but it's not easy for our family to marry into her family. The Zhao family is now competing with their in-laws, the Wang family, so we can't afford to get involved in this mess."

Zhou Sishun pressed his daughter's arm.

Zhou Banxia nodded in understanding. This was what her father said to her mother, but in reality it should not be much different from what her father said.

Judging from the fact that Mr. Zhao bypassed Mr. Zhao San and wanted to supply Mr. Zhao Si with pancreas from her, it can be imagined that Mr. Zhao is very ambitious.

This is not about trying to steal power from Mr. Zhao Sanye, it's purely about breaking the old rules so that Mr. Zhao Siye doesn't have to pay protection fees to the Wang family like Mr. Zhao Sanye did.

"It's hard to get involved. Dajiang is married anyway, so it's not too late for Xiaohe to get married. Why didn't my eldest sister come? Did she go back to her husband's house, or is my eldest brother-in-law not back yet?"

"Your eldest brother-in-law and I took the children back to my husband's house. Your eldest brother-in-law came back early today. They wanted to come to your place together, but your father asked them to go back first.

We came back yesterday. Not to mention the wedding cakes and other things, your aunt also prepared gifts for your eldest sister's parents-in-law, so your father wanted your eldest sister to go back earlier.

It just so happened that your eldest brother-in-law came back before dark, so your father asked him to take your eldest sister and the child back to avoid gossip from people at your eldest sister's in-laws' side.

Yes, San Ya, your mother and your father are not at home these days. Have your elder sister and mother-in-law come to visit your elder sister? Your elder brother-in-law has entered the government to work. What did they say?"

At first glance, they seemed like two different questions, but Zhou Banxia still understood that her mother was just like her father. She didn't hide anything from him if she wanted to know something.

She first told her parents that during the time they were not at home, not only her eldest sister and her mother-in-law, but also her sisters-in-law often came to see how her eldest sister was doing during her pregnancy.

For example, her eldest sister-in-law from her eldest sister's husband's family, in addition to accompanying her mother-in-law to visit her eldest sister, she also came to bring her eldest sister sour apricots pickled from her mother's home.

"... Overall, it's pretty good. We get along just like this. No matter how impatient my eldest sister is, we can't argue. It's just that Uncle Li came to visit my eldest brother-in-law.

Brother Liulang said that it was Dajiang who set the path for his elder brother-in-law. Uncle Li probably didn't believe it, but he said it very well, meaning that he would not let the family hold his elder brother-in-law back.

At that time, Uncle Li came with my brother-in-law's eldest brother, who was very particular when he came. He caught two old hens from somewhere and brought them to our house at this time of year."

The father and son were entertained by Brother Liu Lang. When Uncle Li and his father heard that their eldest sister and brother-in-law were not in the workshop in front, they wanted to put down their things and go back.

No matter how hard Gu Dachang and his men tried to stop them, they couldn't stop them. It was Brother Liu who got ahead and insisted on bringing Uncle Li and his father here to eat before sending a carriage to take them back."

"My son-in-law is really thoughtful." Li praised and said her guess, "I guess it was you, Aunt Li, who planned to raise him before the New Year and send him to you after your confinement.

Just because you helped your eldest brother-in-law, she asked you, Uncle Li, to send it as a thank-you gift. Your Aunt Li is not a bad person, but when the daughter-in-law and the daughter quarrel, she will stand on the daughter's side.

Her daughter is not as sensible as you, and I guess she knows she is in the wrong, so she doesn't care if her daughters-in-law quarrel, as long as they don't fight under her nose. "Normal.

Human nature.

As long as a mother is not selfish and overly patriarchal, how could she not be partial to her own daughter between her daughter and daughter-in-law?

"That's right, son. Look at your brother-in-law. Before you came back, he often came to our house to help, and your Aunt Li never said anything unpleasant.

It's good for a mother-in-law to be like this. After all, your elder sister-in-law is married and can go back to her parents' home for a few days a year. Besides, your elder sister has a bad temper.

I am not the mother who says that my eldest daughter is bad. If you can't afford to offend her, you can just avoid her. But your eldest sister is different. She took it too seriously. Fortunately, your brother-in-law stood on her side. "

Zhou Banxia shook her head slowly. She had almost finished her walk to digest her food tonight, so she stopped and sat down on a chair beside her with the help of her father.

Before she could make an excuse for her elder sister, her father spoke up, "If you can avoid the first day, how can you avoid the fifteenth? How can I avoid someone who is deliberately trying to make things difficult for my daughter?
Your mother doesn't understand. When your eldest sister got married, your father was worried that your brother-in-law had many brothers and sisters, and that your eldest sister was impatient and couldn't coax people, so she was bullied.

So dad didn't even leave out any of the betrothal gift and let your eldest sister take it all. Your eldest sister's parents-in-law are okay, but your eldest sister and sister-in-law are not human.

Your eldest sister and her husband live in harmony with each other. Whenever she returns to her parents' home, she refuses to see your eldest sister being well. She always says gossip and instigates discord between your eldest sister and her sisters-in-law.

Let's stop and talk. If your elder sister can tolerate this, she is no longer my daughter. She is a good daughter of mine and I don't want her to marry into a rich family. Why is she hiding?"

that is!

If her father hadn't liked the eldest sister's wife's character, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she married off her eldest daughter to a lower status. Why did he endure it? What the hell, he really treated her as an old lady!
Her mother did tolerate her sister-in-law, but so what? Her two daughters were secretly sold, one died and one was injured. How could the life of that fickle sister-in-law be enough to pay for it?

Zhou Banxia couldn't help but glance at her mother. Not wanting to chat with her anymore, she immediately turned to look at her father, "Dad, that wild man's family has lost everything."

Zhou Sishun was stunned when he heard this. Then he realized who his daughter was talking about. He nodded to show that he knew and asked, "Is it related to County Magistrate Huang?"

"Almost. Do you remember the Qian family, the relative of County Magistrate Huang? I, the wild man, exchanged the land that was originally under the name of Mr. Bai for that Qian family.

When the Qian Mansion was sealed, it was too late for his family to make changes. Even if they were willing to be fined by the county government to take back their land, even the town headman did not dare to intervene.

Of course, no one dared to intervene at that time. What if Brother Qian wanted to reassess the land taxes in the entire county instead of just paying a fine?

After all, not everyone is like our family. Not only do we pay all taxes, but we don't even have any hidden households. Most people are afraid of angering Senior Brother Qian, and Senior Brother Qian will take it seriously.

Another thing is that his wife didn't have a dowry, and she didn't seem willing to raise money to redeem her husband's family's land, so only one tenth of their land is left.

Originally, Brother Liulang wanted to buy those fields, but I saw that the wild man’s wife showed no signs of wanting to divorce, so I told Brother Liulang not to buy them.

I'm your own father, how could I not know that even if Brother Liulang bought him, you wouldn't want him. Why bother with this? This isn't the way to make people afraid, right?"
