Chapter 1118 Stepfather 29
An hour later, the whole village knew that Yuanchun wanted to marry a daughter-in-law.
When I got home from work, Yuanchun was cooking and Cao's mother came over.
Her expression was indifferent, without the enthusiasm and closeness of last time, "Yuanchun, I heard that you don't want to marry me but Huizi, and you want to find a live-in son-in-law, is that true?"
Yuanchun nodded, "Yes, it's true. The Xu family raised me, and I don't want the Xu family's roots to be cut off by my father. I plan to find a live-in son-in-law to pass on the Xu family's incense. My father is in the underworld, so I can give an explanation to the ancestors of the Xu family."
Cao's mother disagreed, "You are not Er Laizi's biological daughter, and you don't have Xu's blood in your body. The child you married into the son-in-law and gave birth to is not the real descendant of the Xu family. Yuanchun, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you are an orphan without any relatives. You are all alone and helpless. Don't be too picky. My Huizi is more than qualified to marry you. But you have lost your innocence and have no relatives. Apart from my Huizi, which man can marry you? Yuanchun, don't be confused. If you agree to this marriage, let's choose a good day and I'll let Huizi come to pick you up."
Yuanchun lowered her head, exuding a timid stubbornness, "I won't marry, I want to marry a son-in-law, I... I just saved people and did good deeds, why should I bear this kind of grievance, Aunt Cao, I will not marry Brother Huizi, you go."
"Girl, why don't you listen?"
Mother Cao scolded with a dark face, "Don't think that my Huizi won't be able to find a wife without you. I'm doing this for your own good. If you miss my Huizi and can't get married in the future, don't blame my Cao family."
"I don't complain."
"You..." Cao's mother pointed at her angrily, "You are so ungrateful."
"Okay, just pretend I didn't come this time. If you hadn't saved Huizi's life, I wouldn't want to marry my son to an orphan daughter-in-law."
Cao's mother left angrily.
Yuanchun raised her eyebrows slightly, but soon lowered her head with a timid expression and continued to cook her meal.
007 saw this scene in the space and jumped up and down on the sofa in anger, "Host, that Cao's mother is not a good mother-in-law. She wanted to trick you into getting a daughter-in-law for free. She only said to let Cao Hui pick you up. Why didn't she mention the betrothal money or the wedding banquet? She let you follow Cao Hui like this. You will be laughed at in the village in the future. She is such a bad person."
"Host, you must persevere. Don't be defeated by rumors and don't agree to be the daughter-in-law of that bad woman."
Yuanchun laughed and said, "Isn't it easy to live alone? Why should I go to Cao's house and work like a slave for others? If I can't get married, I won't get married."
She earned 400 to 500 kilograms of food, which was not enough for her to eat. She still had 50 to 60 work points, food from her private plot, a vegetable garden in the backyard, and this adobe house. She lived a very good life by herself. Why should she go to the Cao family to suffer?
There are three brothers in the Cao family. Cao Hui is the youngest one and the most beloved son by Cao's mother. Therefore, Cao Hui can occasionally take out a cake or a steamed bun to do good deeds.
The eldest and second brothers of the Cao family have both married. Both brothers have five children. The whole family of more than ten people lives in three bungalows.
The layout of the Cao family's house is the same as that of the Xu family's, with east and west rooms and a kitchen in the middle, but the rooms of the Cao family are twice as large, and there is an extra partition wall between the east and west rooms.
