Chapter 104 After getting married, you should have a child of your own as soon as possible, even if
"Auntie, although our village is said to be blessed with outstanding people and beautiful scenery, and you really admire it, you can't just open your mouth and take a bite! If everyone did what you did, we'd eat all the soil in our village, and how would we grow crops then!"
Tong Jiahui held a pig feed spoon, a sarcastic smile on her face, and didn't speak loudly, but everyone could hear her clearly.
"Pfft! Hahaha! That's right, you've got to pay us for eating the dirt from our village!"
"Haha, cultured people really know how to talk! Sister-in-law Liu, you're not really interested in your brother-in-law, are you?"
"It's no use even if he likes her. She's so dark and ugly, her brother-in-law definitely wouldn't like her!"
"Haha, arranged marriages aren't common anymore, so you, as the elder sister-in-law, really have no say in this!"
Everyone was talking about it. Liu Fengyu didn't expect that the villagers wouldn't be criticizing Tong Jiahui, but instead would be pointing the gun at his wife. These words made him extremely uncomfortable! Tong Jiahui's trick of framing someone was really ruthless!
"You two, you must be Liu Fengyi's second brother and sister-in-law, right?" Tong Jiahui turned her head and spoke to Liu Fengnian and his wife with a smile.
"Ah? Ah, yes, yes, I'm his second brother, and this is his second sister-in-law!" Liu Fengnian was a little worried that this woman might attack him. As a grown man, he could only hide and couldn't fight back against a woman.
Tong Yuheng: Tch! You think you can actually beat me?
"Brother Liu, Sister-in-law Liu, my relationship with Liu Fengyi isn't finalized yet. I need to see how he behaves before making a decision. If you disagree, don't talk to me, go talk to your brothers! I have no intention of marrying into your family."
Our house has just been renovated. The front door faces south. If you're friendly, come in and sit down. If you don't like us, go your own way. Let's not bother each other, okay?
"Um, you mean..." Liu Fengnian didn't understand. What did that mean? Was it inviting them to his home, or telling them to get lost?
"Brother, why don't we go back?" Liu Ersao knew that although her sister-in-law was always making a fuss, it was ultimately her brother who made the decision.
Liu Fengyu patted the dirt off his clothes and realized that this woman was not someone to be trifled with. Only then did he remember what his third brother meant when he said: "Don't say I didn't warn you when you get beaten up."
Not only is she a widow, but she's also a shrew! Such a formidable woman, not only can they not control her, but even the third brother can't control her!
Forget it, forget it, I won't be able to benefit from the third brother's family anymore!
Liu Fengyi was also afraid that his elder brother and sister-in-law would cause trouble for Tong Jiahui, so after finishing his work in the morning, he rode his bicycle over without even having lunch.
She arrived just in time; her elder brother and sister-in-law had already finished eating dirt and were being laughed at by the villagers of Chenjiatun. Tong Jiahui stood aside, watching the spectacle as if it had nothing to do with her.
"Jiahui, are you alright?" In his eyes, his wife was still the same gentle and quiet wife. He had never seen her swear or fight before. He had only heard about it, and it was far less shocking than seeing it in person.
"Oh, it's nothing. Your brother and sister-in-law came to our village, and as soon as they entered, they started cursing, saying I was a shameless vixen who seduced you. Now that you're here, tell everyone how I managed to seduce you!"
Tong Jiahui saw that he was a little angry. She didn't expect that this person had such awful relatives. She didn't want to deal with these people.
"No, no, I insisted on marrying you no matter what. Look, I've already gotten the letter of introduction! If you hadn't insisted on waiting until autumn, I would have gone to get our marriage certificate tomorrow!"
"Third brother, this is your first time getting married. Shouldn't we discuss the specifics? Shouldn't the elders in the family be involved or something? This is too hasty!"
"Big brother, don't worry about this. I'll go back and discuss it with my second uncle. We'll ask him to be a witness. We're also planning to ask the village secretary to help with the arrangements. I've already spoken to him!" Liu Fengyi didn't want to talk to his older brother at all. His second brother was alright; if he behaved well, they could treat each other like relatives.
"So, are you marrying into the family? What will your children's surname be?" The second son was still concerned about his younger brother.
"What era are we living in? Why bother with all that? Whatever the child's surname is, isn't he still my child?"
Liu Fengyi had already decided that if he had any children in the future, they would have to take the surname Liu. After all, the original owner of this body was an old man who had never been married, so he should at least leave him an heir.
"Sigh, then we'll just leave it at that!" Liu Fengyu saw that he couldn't control it, so he simply gave up. If the third brother really wanted to sever ties with them, their family would get nothing in return.
"That won't do! If you marry into the Tong family, they have to give us a bride price!" Sister-in-law Liu jumped up again!
"Alright, Liu Fengyi, I'll give you three hundred yuan as a bride price. How much dowry will you bring?"
Tong Jiahui isn't a young woman, so she's embarrassed to talk about these things. Besides, this body belongs to her brother Lin Sheng, so he'll always side with her.
"All the allowances I received during my military service over the years went to my family, and most of my salary also went to my family. Over the years, my four nephews and nieces have needed to eat, wear, and go to school, so I estimate that my brother and sister-in-law don't have much money left..." Liu Fengyi said with a troubled expression.
"That's right, we're broke! In your situation, why would you need a dowry?" Sister-in-law Liu seemed to have a point.
"I paid for the house I built. Why don't we tear it down, bring all the usable materials over, get a plot of land in Chenjiatun, and build a new house? That way we won't have to rent from the village anymore!" Liu Fengyi said.
"What did you say? You want to demolish the house! Are you crazy? If you demolish the house, where will our family live?" Sister-in-law Liu exclaimed angrily.
"Shut up! Let's go, let's get out of here!" He turned back to Liu Fengyi and said, "When are you having your wedding? We'll come for the feast!"
Liu Fengyu grabbed his wife and left. If they stayed any longer, they'd anger his third brother, who might actually dare to demolish the house. The key point was that his third brother had paid for all the materials, labor, and meals when the house was built—everyone in the village knew that. If he wanted to demolish the house he'd paid for, who could do anything about it?
The second son lived in an old, dilapidated house, which was repaired by the third son. They were indeed living comfortably because of the third son.
Now that the third brother is refusing to care for them, it's probably because they didn't take good care of him when he was sick, which has hurt him. Thinking back to the time he even considered unplugging his lifeline, I'm a little hesitant and don't dare to really offend the third brother.
The eldest son and his wife left, but the second son and his wife remained standing there. They called Liu Fengyi over and said to him, "Third son, aren't you perfectly healthy? After you get married, you should have a child of your own as soon as possible, even if it's a daughter. You'll still have to rely on your own child for old age..."
"Okay, second brother, I understand. I'll still pay for both kids' schooling, just make sure Xiaoxia doesn't drop out. Xiaoli from your eldest brother's family wants to go to school, I'll also pay the tuition, just tell him."
