Chapter 386 The ugly words are ahead
Shan Zima stood outside the door and suddenly heard a fierce scream in the room. She pursed her lips and stood for a long time. She heard the creaking sound of the bed board and then slowly went to sleep in that room. .
This room has mud walls and is not soundproofed.
Shanzi’s mother was lying on the bed, and the voices coming from each other came one after another.
The cuckoo cried for half the night, and her voice became hoarse. Shanzi's mother listened to the fifth watch outside, and the crying and squeaking sounds gradually disappeared.

Besides, there was someone here who brought his father-in-law and his family into the city, found a dilapidated inn, and opened a few shops.
It’s just that Mrs. Guo refused to take any silver even to the death. Yougen still had some broken silver on her body, which was bought by his father. He handed over the silver, invited his younger brother and left.
The two of them left the city at the last moment before the city gate closed.
Yougen was silent all the way. Seeing that they were almost home, Yougen said in a muffled voice: "Go and rent a house for your parents to live in tomorrow."
“From now on, do you think I’ll give your parents two taels of silver a year to support them in their old age?”
Zhaodi was startled at first, and then became ecstatic, "It's done, I have roots, I know you will understand me."
She lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes, "I know my parents are a little too much, but I can't help it. They are my parents and brothers, and I can't ignore them."
Yougen said calmly: "As long as you agree, no matter where it is said, it is reasonable for a married daughter to give her parents two taels of silver a year to support them in their old age."
"My second uncle's family is so rich, but he only gives me two taels of silver for a year's pension. You all know this. He is still a son."
Zhaodi nodded vigorously from behind, "I know, I'm grateful to you, and I will do as you say from now on."
Yougen added: "You have already given me this year's money. I will rent the house tomorrow."
"It's just that I have something to say beforehand. In addition to the money for renting a house and the two taels of pension money this year, you can't give your natal family any more money in the future!"
Zhaodi sat in the back and was stunned.
Just then I heard Yougen say: "If I find out, you secretly give the money from the barbecue to your parents to recruit a younger brother. You might as well go with your parents."
Zhaodi panicked, "Yougen, how can you say this? I gave you two sons, who are as big as iron oxen, you-"
Yougen said calmly: "You also know that you have two sons? Tie Niu is so jealous that we want to marry him, and I also want Gangzi to go to school, which costs money!"
"This is why Ping An City is rich. Now I have earned some money from my second uncle's family. Otherwise, my family is still in debt! How can I get two taels of silver?"
“In the past, at home, you secretly subsidized your mother’s family. I knew it, and my mother knew it too. You just wanted to do nothing, and we didn’t say anything.”
Zhaodi lowered her head in embarrassment. She thought no one knew about the little tricks she did in the past.
“I’m not that unreasonable person. You have to be filial to your parents. I don’t object. I just have a moderation in everything.”
"Your parents are only in their forties, so they plan to stop working? Your brother is also fifteen, and Tieniu is also fifteen this year. They can both earn money and go home. Why can't your brother work?"
“Your brother is more valuable than my son?”
He was speechless when he recruited his younger brother.
Seeing that they were approaching Zhuangzi, Yougen finally said, "I have made everything clear, and you should also understand. We still have sons to raise, and this is enough for your parents."
"Remember my words, if you dare to give your parents a big deal in private, don't ever come into my Zhou family again!"
