Other than providing food for his family, Liu Wanggui only provided around fifty kilograms of rice or fifty kilograms of grain. The cost of writing on thirty mu of land was huge.

In fact, Liu Qi had silver coins on hand. Even if the thirty mu of land was enough for her family to spend and the ten mu of ramie, after paying taxes, it would still be worth nine taels of silver. Adding to that, she could always find three to four taels of silver a year.

”You got pregnant again?” ”Mother, in the past, only Childrens studied, but now we have Bao`er as well. Fortunately, he is still young and the expenses are slightly lower, but son has to make many plans for Zhu'er's dowry.”

”Why can't I feed him? Even if you don't have a big belly, it's just a matter of doing some housework and eating some bran. It's just a matter of adding two spoonfuls of water. ”

Liu Sangui had never fought with Liu Qi before, so he was used to being honest. Therefore, obedient children were always trash in battle.

These words were like adding oil to a fire. Liu Qi slapped his hand on the brick bed and said angrily, ”Why, are mother's words useless? You think that your mother is too old to control her? ”

”Mom, that's not what we meant.” Liu Sanguan was extremely anxious in his heart. He wanted to say that his wife was very diligent, but Liu Qi wouldn't give him the chance to explain.

”Why doesn't that mean? It means that Chun Xiang still needs to drink his milk, doesn't that mean there's still Qiu Xiang and Dao Xiang? Qiu Xiang helped the assistant, and Chun Xiang was brought along by Dao Xiang. ”

Liu Qi didn't even give Liu Dafu a chance to speak before making this decision. Seeing that Liu Sanguan was unconvinced, she said, ”What, it's only a few money losers, are you not happy about this? Aren't you letting Gui Hua take care of her body? Furthermore, Qiu Xiang was already 10 years old and Dao Xiang was 8 years old, how could he not help with things at home? Which family in the village didn't come over like this? They were paying for money on both sides of the road, and they didn't want them to do any more work for their family before going out? You still want to live here for free? ”

”Mother, why did they live here for nothing? Isn't my son always carrying the burden of the family? ” Liu Sanguan's thoughts changed. He felt that after taking care of thirty acres of land every year, he still had to take care of ten mu of dry land. No matter what, he could support her three daughters: ”Furthermore, Qiu Xiang and Dao Xiang have always been helping them with things.”

”Hmph, if you hadn't married a money loser, how would you have ended up like this? The big one is not big, and the small one is still in the cradle. The family has dozens of mouths, which one of them doesn't want to eat it? If her family didn't dig up the gift, I wouldn't be so angry, you really are an unfilial child, raising you to this age is a waste. ”

When Mrs Liu Qi saw that Liu Sangui was getting angrier and angrier, she turned her attention back to Zhang Guihua's wedding gift.

In the past, as a rich person in the village, Liu Qi was able to come up with more gifts, but the Zhang family was really poor, and that gift was even cheaper than buying a girl. She held the thought that the Zhang family had no one to bully, and it just so happened that she could use this gift to bully Zhang Guihua, as compared to her daughter-in-law from the other two families, Zhang Guihua was indeed lacking in confidence after marrying into their family.

As he spoke of the betrothal gift, Liu Sangui was instantly defeated. He didn't know what to say.

It was just that when he thought about how Liu Zhisheng not studying had caused his family to have a difficult year ahead of them, he couldn't help but feel angry.

Without waiting for him to refute anything, Liu Dafu yawned and sloppily placed the dry straw in his hands on the brick bed, then said: ”Alright, it's getting late, you guys go back to your rooms earlier. Ol 'Three, your family's work is more difficult, if Sheng'er and Ol' Four manage to become Elementary Scholars, not only will the two of them not have to give food, they can also reduce the taxes on their family's land by half.

Liu Sanguan was not convinced, but his parents had already said so. Moreover, with only his son at home, it wasn't their place to do things. How could they ask another couple to do it?

Liu Rengui was very satisfied with the result: ”That's right, Old Third, it's been hard on you all, when Childrens becomes powerful in the future, she will not forget about you third uncle, furthermore, Zhu'er has been spoiled bad by her grandmother, if she really comes back to help, my brother-in-law's family will probably come here with a Pig Slaughtering Knife.”

He dared to say those words because all of the Sun family's sister-in-law's sons and daughters were brought along. However, there were a lot of them at home, and they began to cherish their daughters once again. Therefore, every time Liu Zhuer returned to the village, the Sun family would send someone to bring the Sun family over to stay for a short while.

Liu Sanguan clearly knew that this matter was not good, but he couldn't think of a way to stop it, so he held his breath and returned to the West Side Room.
