Chapter 17 No Feelings, Just Talk About Money

However, she knew that this was not a long-term solution.

A thought quickly flashed into her mind, and she couldn't help asking tentatively, "Father, I heard that adopting a child can bring joy. How about we buy someone with good morals to be our brother?"

She quickly explained again, "I will ask Dr. Liu to take good care of my mother's body. You are still young and nice, so I don't believe that I don't have a younger brother. This matter can't be rushed."

Xu's mother, who was still very sad, was amused by her words, "You girl, you actually said some nonsense. If people hear you, you must not laugh at you. You can't say this in front of outsiders from now on."

"The child's father, I think Ning'er's words are quite reasonable, why don't we adopt one. As long as the child is of good character, it doesn't matter if it's not your own."

Father Xu frowned and sighed helplessly.

"Let me think about it again. Let's go, let's eat buns. After working for a long time, I should be hungry. I have to go to the stall tomorrow, and I have to get a lot of things."

Xu Jianing knew in her heart that her father did not agree with her idea.It's just because of face, I don't want to make her mother feel more uncomfortable.

Another day, she will ask Dr. Liu what is going on with her mother.

What they didn't know was that after Mr. Xu went back, there was almost a quarrel about the adoption of the eldest son of the Xu family.

When Mr. Xu told the people in the first room exactly what happened in the second room, Mrs. Xu knew that her wishful thinking was wrong again.

She cursed with some dissatisfaction, "Oh, they have a good idea, let the money my son earns to fill their bottomless pit, don't even think about it. Whoever wants to mention this to me in the future, who am I to worry about?" .”

"Mom, you brought up this matter first. You came back and said that the second uncle and the others got rich and bought a lot of good things. They let me and my second adoptive, and they can help pay for the dowry money in the future."

"I've already said that this trick won't work, I told you not to dream, you still don't believe it, do you believe it now? I'll go to sleep when I'm fine, I'm exhausted."

After leaving this sentence, Xu Linhao, the eldest son of the Xu family's eldest son, left.

Xu Wang said reluctantly, "It's my fault. I didn't make this decision for the good of the family. Your daughter-in-law wants 15 taels of silver as a betrothal gift. The second daughter-in-law wants [-] taels of silver." two."

"These are all money, where do we get so much? The second bedroom has no son, so I came up with this idea."

The second son, Xu Linmu, who had been silent all this time, sneered, "Mother, don't you think you're doing too much? You don't plan to let us really raise the second uncle and the second aunt, and expect others to pay for your son. Is that stupid?"

Both sons scolded her one after another, which made Xu Wang feel particularly uncomfortable.

She burst into tears with grievances, "You two little heartless, your elbows are turning outward. Now you are all saying it's my fault, I'm dead!"

Sitting at the door, Xu Dongwang was irritated by his mother-in-law's voice, "Okay, can't you live this life? Look at you, you don't look like an elder, and you are not afraid of being laughed at when you speak out."

"Stop thinking about the second bedroom in the future. Whether they live well or not has nothing to do with our family. Didn't you understand what the second bedroom meant? And let dad say that shamelessly. Isn't it embarrassing?"

Mrs. Xu thought about what she had inquired about today, so she yelled deliberately, "Second House is now prosperous, so I bought dozens of rice today. That is rice, how many times can we eat it all year round?"

"What? You mean rice? Can Erfang really afford rice?"

Mrs. Xu, who was hiding in the room, quickly jumped out of the room after hearing her mention rice.

"Grandma, I saw it with my own eyes. Second Uncle and the others bought not only rice, but also flour. It cost several taels of silver!"

Xu Lanhua knew what her grandma cared about.

She deliberately sang and talked with her mother, and sure enough, the old lady's face changed, and she pulled up the heels of her shoes and rushed out.

"Mother, what are you doing? Damn girl, what nonsense are you talking about with your mother? Hurry up and chase your grandma back."

Xu Lanhua curled her lips, "I won't go, you have to go by yourself. I'm not wrong, if you don't believe me, you can ask yourself. My mother spent a lot of time..."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mrs. Xu slapped her hard before she finished speaking, "I told you to talk too much, go to sleep quickly."

Only then did Xu Lanhua remember that her mother had told her not to tell the news that she had spent two copper coins to inquire about.

Fortunately, her mother stopped her early, otherwise she almost forgot and said it.

Sticking her tongue out at them, Xu Lanhua hurried back to the room and closed the door.

She didn't sleep, but waited for news from her grandma.She knew that if her grandma was in charge, the second room would have to spend some money no matter what.

But she forgot that the second room has long been different.It's not that easy to get something from them.

When Mrs. Xu walked to the door of the second room out of breath, she found that the door was closed.No matter how hard she knocked on the door, no one inside would open.

She sat at the door and made a fuss, "What crime did I do! My son ignored me and didn't even open the door for me. How can there be such a cruel descendant."

Her crying quickly attracted many people to watch.

Someone who couldn't stand it said, "Why is my aunt coming here to make trouble again? Is there no meat this time? Or is there no food? Does the village head ignore you?"

"Go, go, what do you know? No one cares about you kid. My parents are prosperous and treat me well. Unlike some people, they don't care about me when they get rich."

The old lady said a lot of cursing again, and everyone saw that it was boring, and they didn't bother to watch the fun.

Soon, they all dispersed consciously.Only the old lady was left, sitting at the door and waiting.

I didn't expect to wait until it was very late.

Father Xu and the others came back from the mountains just when Mrs. Xu was almost falling asleep.

The sharp-eyed Xu Jianing saw the old lady Xu guarding the gate from afar.

Afraid that she would find out what was in their basket, Xu Jianing asked her mother and elder sister to stay here, and she accompanied Xu's father back to deal with the old lady.

The old lady who heard the movement stood up from the ground with a bang, and after seeing the person, she said in a bad tone, "Hey, the airs are getting bigger and bigger now, and it's hard to come to see you."

"Why are you here again?"

"What's the matter? You don't even want to call mother now? Let me ask you, do you agree with what your father said? We are doing it for your own good."

Xu's father sneered, "Okay, I don't want him to take care of me until the end of my life, as long as he is willing to pay for our medical treatment, we want this son."

"You're crazy! How much does that cost? We are all a family, don't spend money or not, it hurts feelings."

Xu's father snorted coldly, returning to the family, the relationship is gone, if you don't talk about money, what are you talking about?
