After the rooster crowed, Aunt Yang also lifted the quilt and prepared to get up.
"Are you going to town with the young wife of the Niu family today?" Old Yang asked in a sleepy voice behind him.
"Yes, what's the matter?" Aunt Yang, who was sitting on the bed and getting dressed, turned around and asked in confusion after hearing Old Yang's question.
"Nothing! I'm just asking you to be careful and be careful not to lose her, and her only root." Old Yang muttered.
"Tsk, I know it! You treat me as a three-year-old kid who doesn't understand anything. You should sleep for a while, anyway, you don't have to go to the fields today." Aunt Yang covered Old Yang with the quilt and muttered.
"Okay, okay, you should go out quickly!" Old Yang pulled the quilt covering his body and said with his eyes closed.
"Okay, okay, I'll go out." Aunt Yang got dressed, got out of bed, opened the door, and went out. At this time, the sky was still dim.
"Mom, you're up too!" In the kitchen, Aunt Yang's second daughter-in-law was already busy.
"Well, how long have you been up?" Aunt Yang asked casually after taking over the work from the second daughter-in-law.
"Not long, I just boiled some water." The second daughter-in-law ran to the kitchen to light the fire because her work was taken over by her mother-in-law.
Old Yang and Aunt Yang had three sons in total. There was originally a little daughter, but she died of a high fever when she was five years old. The doctor said at the time that even if she was saved, she would be a fool, but parents would not dislike even fools. It was a pity that the money was spent and the person was still gone.
After losing this daughter, Aunt Yang also fell ill. Fortunately, the three sons were already grown up at that time, and the family could help. Later, when the eldest son was able to get married, Aunt Yang was not pregnant. She gave up the desire for a daughter. She only hoped that the three sons would give her a granddaughter in the future, but it was a pity that so far, Aunt Yang's family has always been in a state of excess yang and yin deficiency.
The eldest, Yang Cheng, married Fang Shi, who is two years younger than Yang Cheng. The couple currently has three children, all sons. The eldest son is ten years old, the second son is eight years old, and the youngest son is five years old. Now Fang ShiShi is pregnant again, and it has been five months. The couple also hopes to have a daughter this time. Their sons are really too naughty and give people a headache.
The second son, Yang Zhong, married Liu Shi, who is the same age as him. There are also three children, and all of them are sons. The eldest son is nine years old, the second son is seven years old, and the youngest son is six years old. The second son and his wife don’t want to have any more children at present, for fear of giving birth to sons.
When they married Liu Shi, some people in the village laughed at Aunt Yang, saying that it might be difficult for her second son to have a son after marrying Liu Shi. After all, Liu’s mother gave birth to five daughters before giving birth to a son, and she sealed her belly after giving birth to that son and never got pregnant again.
Moreover, of Liu's two married sisters, the eldest sister gave birth to a son after giving birth to three daughters, and the second sister has only given birth to two daughters and has not been pregnant yet, and her in-laws are already dissatisfied. The second sister had a hard time in her in-laws' house.
As for Liu Shi, it is unknown if it's because her Yang family is too prosperous. Since she married, she has given birth to three sons in a row. Aunt Yang originally thought that she could get a sweet and soft granddaughter. After all, the Liu family has the gene to give birth to daughters, but who knows that she will be disappointed in the end.
The third child, Yang Wei, married Zhao Shi, who is Aunt Yang's distant niece, and the couple is two years apart. There are currently two sons under his niece: the eldest son is five years old, and the youngest son has just turned two years old.
The old house will be divided for the eldest son, and as for the homesteads of the second and youngest sons, Old Yang has already prepared them. When it is divided in the future, a few more taels of silver will be given to the two families as money for building houses. As for her and Old Yang, they live with the eldest son.
In the families with many sons in the village, the elderly basically live with the eldest son after the division. Few elderly people live with their other sons. This shows that the eldest son of his family is not filial, which makes the elderly not want to live with them, and it will bring some trouble to the children of that family when they are married in the future.
Among the three sons, the eldest son has a steady personality and can take care of this family just like his wife.
The second brother has the most correct ideas. As long as he makes up his mind, he will definitely do it. Of course, those ideas he makes are all under the condition of not destroying the relationship between brothers. For example, although Liu Shi, whom he wanted to marry, asked for five taels of silver, he paid two taels of it himself, just to be like his eldest brother. His temperament is just right for his wife's soft personality.
The third brother is a bit honest, which is just right for his slightly spoiled wife.
Under the leadership of Old Yang, the three brothers are very diligent and do things quickly, and the relationship between the three is also strong.
"Mom, second sister-in-law, good morning. Have you prepared breakfast?" Zhao Shi yawned and walked in from outside.
"Good morning, sister-in-law," Liu Shi replied with a smile.
"Mom, are you going to town today?" Zhao Shi asked Aunt Yang next to her.
"Yes! What's the matter, are you going to? If you want to go, wash your face and brush your teeth quickly. Otherwise, I won't wait for you if it's late." Aunt Yang glanced at her and said.
"Second sister-in-law, are you going?" Zhao Shi did not answer Aunt Yang but asked Liu Shi.
"No, I don't have anything to buy either," Liu Shi replied softly.
"Then I won't go either. There's no one to accompany me, and it's boring to go," Zhao Shi replied immediately when she heard that Liu Shi was not going.
"Your mother is not a human being?! How can you despise me for being old?" Aunt Yang couldn't help but roll her eyes at her after hearing this and said unhappily.
"Haha, mother, I didn't mean that." Zhao Shi didn't get angry after being scolded and said with a smile next to Aunt Yang.
"Go, go, go, go away quickly, don't block me from working." Aunt Yang gently pushed Zhao Shi next to her and scolded them with a smile.
Liu Shi has been watching the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law getting along with each other with a smile. In fact, she is quite envious, but she just can't do it.
Yuyu: I don't know how these people do it but no matter how nice my parents-in-law are, I don't think I can live permanently in the same house with them and siblings-in-law. It's just too social for me.
