”Gui Hua, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”

”Father of the child, have you ever thought that after this year, Autumn Fragrance will be ten years old?”

When Liu Sanguan heard her firm and resolute tone, he felt that something was off.

”I'll go and talk to mom tomorrow.”

”If she doesn't agree, what will you do? I, Zhang Guihua, know that my family is poor, and after marrying into your family, I've never complained at all. Mother said that I would do whatever she wants, and I've been in your family for nine years already. But little sister-in-law, look at her, she doesn't look like a peasant girl, her fingers aren't stained by the spring water, and that's fine too. Father and mother are pained by her age, and her body isn't that good, so I'll admit it, and do more, so she won't die. But look at her cotton dress, it costs at least a hundred pieces of gold to make a set for her every year, and what about them? ”Ever since I was born, I have never made a new set of clothes.”

More accurately, it was Zhang Guihua who had removed Liu Sangui's torn clothes, sewing for Liu Qiuxiang to wear, Liu Dao Xiang could not even pick up Liu Qiuxiang's clothes, while Liu Dao Xiang could not, she had already patched up a lot of clothes, was it for Liu Chunxiang who was preparing to wear or not.

Liu Sanguan thought about it and felt a lump in his throat. He also wanted his wife and children to live a good life, but other than going to work, he had no other skills.

”But all the money in the family is in mother's hands, not to mention that Fourth Brother wants to study. Since we're married, I will marry him in the future.”

These words caused Zhang Gui Hua to be dissatisfied, her mind was only thinking about Liu Dao Xiang's words. Thinking back to how she had been married for all these years, Liu San Gui had always put filial piety before anything, so towards Liu Qi's request, he had never refused.

”Liu Sanguan, do you still have any of our mothers in your heart?”

Zhang Guihua had been enduring for many years, but she had never thought too much about it. She only thought that she should work hard to make her mother-in-law happy, so that her child could feel better.

But she was wrong now, she had been wrong from the start.

Mrs Liu Qi was a very selfish and heartless person. She wouldn't change her mind just for the sake of Zhang Guihua and Liu Sangui working hard. On the contrary, she had always taken it for granted that the couple would work hard.

”What are you saying? Why don't I care less about you guys? If not, after you and Dao Xiang have suffered, I will go and beg mother to give me some white rice.”

”Hmph, isn't that what you should get? Haven't you worked with me in this house enough all these years? Even if we go to the landlord's house to sell the living contract, we can raise our child better. ”

”Stop talking, it's not like you don't know. Our mother really doesn't like the landlords in the town. She said that they have never seen such a great fortune before.”

Zhang Guihua was so angry by him that she punched him in the chest and cried, ”Then what do you think we should do? Even if we have to work in this house for the rest of our lives, don't expect Qiu Xiang and the others to get a good dowry. Do you want your own daughters to live miserable lives like me?”

If it wasn't for the fact that her dowry wasn't dignified enough, how could she not have stood up straight in front of her mother-in-law and her two sister-in-law?

She had made it clear that she did not want her daughters to repeat her hopeless days.

”I know what you're thinking. Father and mother would never agree to a branch family.” Liu Sangui felt that his mouth was filled with a bitter taste that was even more bitter than the yellow lotus.

”Humph, then tell me, Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, how did they get along so well? Also, why haven't they gotten their money back yet? Furthermore, Eldest Uncle even sent someone to bring home a carriage of rice grain each year. Could it be that he wouldn't be able to raise his own wife and children? Second Uncle was the same as well. Fourth Uncle had used money to study, which one of them didn't depend on the output of the fields to earn money to repair? Has second uncle ever had a copperplate before? ”
