Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

Qin's mother was so angry that she was trembling all over.

"What kind of spell did that bandit cast on you that you actually helped him find a mistress?"

"Ningru is no small figure in her family. We're all the same, except for that marriage certificate. Everything else is the same."

"Qin Xueru, what are you thinking? Finding another woman for your man, are you even a normal person?"

"It's not normal. I can't be normal. If the son-in-law you find for me isn't normal, then I can't be normal either."

"Did he hit you?" Hearing this, Qin's mother felt sorry for him again.

"No, don't even mention hitting me, he didn't even raise his voice at me. You can ask Ningru if you don't believe me."

"Then what's wrong with it?"

Qin Xueru found it difficult to speak to her own mother.

"Just tell me, I have such a short temper."

"I... I'll definitely be worn out by him in less than two years if I'm alone." Qin Xueru said, her face turning red.

"Men are all like that when they're young, they'll get used to it in a couple of years."

"I was exhausted before I even had two years left." After saying that, he looked around and saw a string of tied corn cobs hanging outside.

"Ningru, bring in a corncob."

Qin's mother was very experienced. "No need to take it, I understand. This...this is too much like livestock."

"What's even more beastly is that he can start moving around from the moment he gets into bed at night until the early hours of the morning."

Qin's mother was so shocked that her mouth remained agape for a long time.

"Mom, it's true, my sister wasn't exaggerating at all."

"This..." Qin's mother hesitated for a long time, unable to utter a complete sentence.

After hesitating for a while, he blurted out, "He...he's not possessed by a donkey spirit, is he?!"

"Stop being so old-fashioned. Mom, let me put it nicely for you. Dazhuang has a great job now, and he earns a good amount of money. He can support the whole family without any problem, and he can eat fine grains every day, and even have meat every now and then. It's much better than Ningru marrying an ordinary person."

Qin's mother now understood; it turned out that the other person had completely tamed both of her daughters.

She's been through it all, and she knows how important it is for a man to be strong.

Seeing that her mother was silent, Qin Ningru pulled out her last weapon and took out the money that had been sewn into her underwear.

"Here's a hundred yuan, a gift from us to you two. If anyone asks later, just say Ningru has married into the city too. Others can only be envious. Who would bother going to the city to verify that?"

We're content with our simple life, aren't we? You're angry because you're worried Ningru won't be doing well. Are you relieved now? The food is good, and you don't have to work in the fields.

If I have another child in two years, everything will be perfect. Where else can I find such a good thing?

If you really disagree, I'll talk to Yue Ru. She doesn't care about her reputation; I think she'd agree without hesitation.

Qin's mother snatched the money from Qin Ningru's hand: "Cousins ​​can't be as caring as blood sisters. It's not like your Qin family hasn't had its share of these kinds of things before."

"You agree to this."

"What can I do if I disagree? She's already been slept with, she's almost pregnant like you!"

Qin's mother thought for a moment and said, "If we're going to do it, we should do it properly. This afternoon, Ningru will go to your fourth uncle and ask for the marriage introduction letter from Kaifeng. Just say that she has married into the city."

With things settled here, Qin Huairu took out the money as soon as she entered, saying that someone in the city had taken a liking to Yueru.

It went even more smoothly than here.

They say you can guard against anything, but it's hard to guard against a thief within your own family. When a daughter conspires with her parents to deceive them, they're almost always fooled.

The buzz was even stronger; the whole village knew in no time that anyone could get a hundred yuan as a bride price for their daughter.

"Don't be envious, it's just that their daughter is so beautiful, she has everything you could want."

"It's impossible not to be envious; that's a hundred yuan! That's equivalent to a family working hard for half a year, and she even got married and moved to the city..."

This time, the Qin family has gained both face and substance. Needless to say, in this era of limited information, even in the 21st century, such things have happened frequently, perhaps even more often than before.

That evening, Qin Huairu and Qin Ningru received a warm welcome at their respective homes. Those with unmarried daughters in their families even made a special trip to visit them.

The implication was that he also wanted Qin Huairu to find him a husband in the city... and that the bride price could be lower.

The Qin family was bustling with activity, and Niu Dazhuang was also busy in the city.

Before leaving get off work, I secretly went to Su Wan's office again, left a message saying that no one would be home tonight, and then left.

A woman in her late thirties or early thirties is at the age of sexual frustration, which she had previously suppressed. Now that this desire has been unleashed, she longs for nightly revelry. Like a volcano erupting, it's unstoppable.

Su Wan left work ten minutes early again. She rode her bicycle to find her younger sister and bought some snacks to go with her drinks at the alley entrance.

The night before last, the two sisters talked things out, and Su Ting finally understood why her older sister had been running around so diligently.

"No wonder they work in the same company, they're really well-informed," Su Ting teased.

"Why are you so envious? How about I lend you my back scratcher for a couple of days? I guarantee it'll make you feel good!" When chatting with her younger sister, Su Wan is a completely different person from when she's at work.

"My little body can't withstand such a big back scratcher. I want to live a few more days."

The two sisters chatted while making dinner.

"Are you inviting my wild brother-in-law over for a couple of drinks tonight?" Su Ting continued teasingly.

"That won't do. If we keep coming over for drinks every few days, what will the neighbors think? Winter is coming soon, let's prepare winter supplies."

"I never used to care about this, but now I have to take care of everything myself. Sis, can you write me a list and I'll prepare according to it?"

"Do I even need to write this down? I'll tell you, and you still can't remember. Now you can prepare a stove, coal briquettes, buy some cotton paper, replace the paper on the windows, and plug the holes with mud..." Su Wan went on and on.

"Sister, living in a tenement is so troublesome. By the way, shouldn't we tidy up this heated kang bed too?"

"It's only been a few years, and you've already forgotten your roots," Su Ting said. She was the youngest daughter in the family and was the most favored before she got married. She carefully selected her son-in-law and was pampered like a princess after marriage.

In this day and age, she only had one daughter and then stopped having children, ostensibly to maintain a good figure. This shows how much this son-in-law dotes on his wife.

Unfortunately, his breath was too foul, which led to tragedy.

Every action has its own destiny. It's because he usually dotes on his wife and the couple has a good relationship that Su Ting would have broken up with him long ago.

Some people were labeled as rightists and cut off from their families. Sometimes they did so because they were afraid of implicating their families and wrote letters to them. Sometimes it was the women in the family who were afraid of being implicated and brought it up.

Niu Dazhuang didn't have as many concerns as Su Wan. After getting off work, he left his bicycle at home and, seeing the cold kang and stove inside, came over without a second thought.

When Su Wan saw Niu Dazhuang swaggering over, she quickly gave him a wink, but Niu Dazhuang pretended not to see her.

Su Wan was so angry that she stomped her feet.
