Wonderful doctor and pretty peasant girl

Chapter 256 Big Brother's Sincerity

Qiu Mingyuan's questioning made Qiu Li's old face lose face, but she just thought so, the money earned by this son can only be used by her!

In an instant, Qiu Li's eyes slanted towards him: "Isn't it? Do you think you grew up drinking the northwest wind? After raising you for more than ten years, the money spent and the food you eat are still less?"

Did this mother settle accounts with him?

Over ten years?
He's been pretty much supporting himself since he was five years old!
Since the family relationship is just a piece of paper, if you don't expose the parents, you really think he is a stupid son!

Qiu Mingyuan stared at Qiu Lishi: "Mother, you are not just my son, right? I should use the money I earn back home. With so many brothers, all the money they earn should be used by you, right? Why can you marry them? Daughter-in-law, but never thought of starting a family for me? Could it be that I did something to you by marrying a daughter-in-law?"

Qiu Li was so enraged by the questioning: "It's not that you never married a wife, they only married one, why are you jealous?"

He is jealous of other brothers marrying wives?

Qiu Mingyuan wanted to laugh: "I married a daughter-in-law before, but my mother married it to me? There are so many brothers, whose wife was married to my mother? If there is one, I will accept it!"

At this time, Qiu Lao Si muttered in a low voice: "Second brother, what does this mean? Our brother didn't spend his money to marry a wife, did he?"

Qiu Mingyuan cast a cold glance at Qiu Lao Si: "Didn't I spend my money? Then where did this big house come from? Who gave the money to buy the fertile land at home? Tell me about it! I'll be a kiss and you jump one by one Wake up, isn't it because I'm afraid that I'll use the family's money to marry a daughter-in-law, which will make you spend less money?"

One sentence hit everyone's minds, and the faces of the people in the room suddenly looked ugly.

And it was the person involved who punctured it himself. Needless to say, this embarrassment, even old man Qiu was silent...

The Qiu family used to have only five acres of land, and the family lived a precarious life, let alone living in such a big yard.

Such a big yard was bought for 60 taels of silver back then, but now it is probably impossible to buy it for 80 taels of silver.

What's more, the family now has [-] mu of fertile land and [-] mu of land. Even if there are many more people in the family, no one has ever been hungry in the past five years.

Especially in the past year, after Qiu Mingyuan came back, all the silver he got from hunting was handed over to Qiu Li, and from time to time, he brought back game that was not worth the money to make tooth sacrifices. These days are the days of the small landlord's house. .

It was suddenly said by the person involved, and finally some of the crowd blushed.

Since their second son came back, some people saw that their family's life was getting better, some were envious, some were jealous, and some laughed.

It's one thing to be envied by others, but old man Qiu still doesn't want to spend 50 taels of silver from his family to marry him a wife.

50 taels of silver, my youngest son can still study for a few years.

The youngest son is the smartest among the sons, if he can pass the exam a few more years, how much face will he have in the clan?
Xiucai's father, there are not many in the Qiu clan.

Old man Qiu thought, the second son would not have a great future anyway, and now for the sake of the younger son, he could only be wronged.

"A Yuan, you are a child of my Qiu family. It is your duty to bring back the money and buy land for your parents. We are not saying that you have committed any crime to us by marrying a wife, but the dowry that this girl asked for was too much." There are too many, let your mother find another one for you."

After all, it is still a matter of money.

Sure enough, in the face of interests, family affection is worth nothing.

Qiu Mingyuan looked at Old Man Qiu coldly and asked in a low voice, "What does dad mean is that he won't let his son marry Mrs. Chen?"

Old man Qiu was a little annoyed: "Didn't Dad explain it to you? You got some money back, but there are so many people in the family who need to eat, drink, and use it. How can you get this money? Who said that you are not allowed to marry Mrs. Chen?" gone?"

It's not that there is no silver, but that if there is silver, it will not be given to him.

There was no emotion in Qiu Mingyuan's eyes: "Father means that it's not that I'm not allowed to marry Mrs. Chen, but because the family can't afford money, right? If I earn money by myself, won't you object?"

The old man Qiu was startled, and Qiu Li wanted to open his mouth, but Qiu Mingchun stopped him: "Second brother, if you really like Chen, then marry him."

Qiu Li frowned: "Boss, what nonsense are you talking about? He married Chen's daughter, and you got 50 taels of silver?"

Qiu Mingchun looked guilty: "Second brother, although elder brother won't be able to give you 50 taels of silver for a while, you can borrow it first, and elder brother will pay it back with you."

As soon as Qiu Mingchun finished speaking, everyone reacted differently.

Qiu Mingyuan looked at him with long and distant eyes, as if he wanted to find out the truth from the big brother's face.

Qiu Li's face showed anger, and he was about to scold him immediately.

Among the brothers of the Qiu family, Qiu Laowu looked contemptuous, Qiu Laosi looked surprised, Qiu Laosan looked indifferent, and only Qiu Laoda looked guilty.

"Brother, are you telling the truth?"

Others watched the development of the situation with the mentality of watching a drama. Upon hearing this question, Qiu Chen became anxious: "Father, what are you talking about? Are you capable of helping your second brother repay the 50 taels of silver debt? Knowing that both Mao and Ermao go to school, they will take the examination of scholars in the future, and they will ask for a lot of money. Second brother, you know your elder brother's ability, he has more than he wants but not enough power."

Qiu Mingyuan really laughed!

It's really different if there are scholars in the family. Even this illiterate sister-in-law knows how to speak!

Qiu Mingchun also thought about whether his son would be able to study, and whether they would be able to be admitted as scholars in the future.

The clansmen in the village have children who are admitted to the scholar's degree, and even their parents and fathers are also honored. Qiu Mingchun is not envious.

It's just that he felt guilty all the time, so he couldn't think about the future.

"My son, I know that I am not very capable, but I will pay back my strength. Back then, my second brother took my military service and survived a narrow escape. He suffered for me. Now he is old and his appearance has suffered. If he can find a girl he wants to marry, I will definitely help him."

Qiu Chen was really anxious: "Pay it back, you are just a person who can only plan for food every day, and you have to bear such a heavy debt. Do you think you are the reincarnation of the God of Wealth? There are three sons and one daughter, how much money does it cost to raise them!"

Although the situation was true, Qiu Mingchun felt that what he said as a man should count.

Now that Mrs. Qiu Chen is chattering here and totally ignoring him, Qiu Mingchun became irritable: "Okay! I know I'm not capable, but this is my second brother, my own brother, and I have three. Son, he doesn't have any sons, can I not help? I am the master of a man's family, why bother you a woman's family!"
