"Uncle Wang, how many kilograms of pork do you want?"

Which part do you want?

Do you want pork belly or just pure fat?

Tao asked with a smile.

Wang Ergou paused for a moment, then stepped past Wang Shi and the others, and said with a smile, "Tao Yatou, I want two catties of pork belly."

"Second brother, cut two catties of pork belly for Uncle Wang, pick the ones with more fat."

Tao turned her head and said to her second brother.

"Alright, little sister!"

Liu Tiechui's voice was loud, and with one stroke, he cut off a piece of fatty pork belly.

They quickly weighed the rice and strung it together with rice straw.

"Uncle Wang, it's two catties and one tael. I'll charge you for two catties, which is twenty coins per catty, for a total of forty coins."

Here's your pork!

"Thank you, Hammer. Thank you, Peach Girl."

Wang Ergou readily paid forty coins, happily carried the pork, and walked out of the crowd.

Tao'er gave her second brother a thumbs up, "Second brother, your swordsmanship is good, and your arithmetic is good too!"

"Thank you for the compliment, little sister!"

Liu Tiechui was so happy to receive his younger sister's praise that his mouth stretched all the way to his ears.

"Next……"

Someone immediately stepped forward, but was rudely stopped by Wang, "You, Zhang Mazi, wait a moment."

Then he turned his head and pointed at Tao'er, cursing, "You brat, what do you mean?"

Hurry up and cut me five pounds of pork belly, and bring me that pig's hind leg back with you!

What are you dawdling about here for?

With so many people queuing up, what good meat will be left after they've all bought it?

Tao'er calmly said, "Grandma, for the sake of our kinship, I don't mind if you cut in line."

But I don't trust you.

You can have pork, but you'll have to pay first.

Five catties of pork cost one hundred coins.

A pig's hind leg weighs seven or eight jin, I'll say seven jin, and at twenty-five wen per jin, that's one hundred and seventy-five wen.

Including the cost of the pork belly, the total came to 275 coins.

Pay up!

"Give me the money and I'll have my second brother cut you some pork right away."

"What the hell?!"

I'm your grandmother, and you're asking me for money?

You unfilial granddaughter, you ingrate!

All the money you make from selling the wild boars you hunt should be given to me and your grandfather.

Now we're just asking you how many pounds of pork you want, and you're already charging us? Is that reasonable?

So many villagers are watching!

Aren't you afraid of being gossiped about behind your back by your fellow villagers?

Why don't I dare to accept money?

Grandma, don't forget, our eldest branch of the family has already been separated.

From now on, every penny our family earns will have nothing to do with you!

"And it's not a holiday, it's not time to exchange gifts yet, are you getting senile!"

"Oh my..."

Folks, come take a look!

The eldest son is an ingrate, and his children are all ingrates too.

They wouldn't even offer us, their elders, hundreds of kilograms of wild boar meat as a token of their respect.

You guys be the judge...

Feeling ashamed, Liu Laogen quickly tried to pull his wife up, but Wang Shi refused to get up and remained lying on the ground.

The villagers started talking about it.

Some people felt that since they were grandparents, giving them a few pounds of pork wasn't a big deal.

Some felt that since Wang and her family had abused and bullied the eldest son's family in the past, it wasn't a big deal if they didn't give it to them.

Some felt that the Wang family was too greedy and wanted too much.

Some people felt that this was their own fault, since they had sold the little girl Tao when she was just a few years old and she almost died when she came back. They said she deserved it!

Liu Laogen couldn't hold back any longer and stepped forward, saying, "Tao girl, your father promised to give us a few pounds of pork to eat."

The villagers all heard it, you can't go back on your word!

Your grandma also feels sorry for Fatty Bao; that child keeps fussing about wanting to eat meat.

Look at you here, you have hundreds of pounds of wild boar meat, more than you can eat. Share a few pounds with us, that would be your way of showing respect to us, your elders.

We're all family, blood is thicker than water, so let's not go too far!

Liu Laogen was also angry, but he had to hold back. He couldn't resist eating meat!

Wang jumped up and down, "You brat, your father just said he'd give us pork."

Hurry up and give us the meat, I'm in a hurry to get back!

Tao'er laughed and said, "Grandpa, my father's words don't count!"

The wild boar was hunted by my older brothers and me, and we can give it to whomever we want.

As I just said, anyone who wants to eat pork must pay with money, otherwise there's no point in talking!

If you don't want to spend money, then hurry back and stop getting in my way and interfering with my pork purchase!

Everyone's still queuing up!

"Liu Daniu, you get out here right now! You're ignoring your own parents now that we've separated!"

"And what about the eldest daughter-in-law? Look at the wretch you gave birth to! So unfilial!"

"Do you believe I'll have my fourth brother go to the yamen and sue you for being unfilial and disrespectful to your elders?"

Knowing that her granddaughter wouldn't listen to her at all, Wang started scolding her eldest son and his wife.

Liu Daniu came out and said, "Mother, do whatever you want!"

I don't care, and I'm not afraid!

Anyway, I'm not going to take the imperial examinations.

Furthermore, I didn't hunt this wild boar meat, so I have no right to dispose of it.

Since Peach Girl said you should pay for it, if you want to eat it, you should pay for it!

"Don't blame Tao Yatou. She's the most honest girl. When others treat her well, she treats them even better!"

She will remember if others treat her badly.

Don't forget how you tricked her into selling her to human traffickers.

Liu Daniu's rebuttal was sharp.

"Wang, how dare you say what kind of thing I gave birth to?"

Don't you see what kind of things you've given birth to? They're all useless.

They're either lazy and cunning, or selfish and ungrateful.

Every one of my children is better than you.

Especially Tao'er, she is clever, resourceful, and filial.

I haven't even settled the score with you for selling my daughter yet; I'm only doing it because you're Da Niu's parents.

Otherwise, I would have gone to the yamen to file a complaint long ago!

Zhang Su'e stood up and spoke with composure and dignity.

He then pointed to the pork on the wooden board, "If you want to eat pork, pay up and buy it!"

"you………

Second son's wife, can you see now?

Wang was both shocked and frightened.

"Yes, I can see again, all thanks to my daughter."

She is the lucky star of my family.

Because she came back, our main branch of the family finally started living a good life!

"Old woman, you think you can bully my daughter? No way!"

Wang's face turned pale and then red, but she finally said firmly, "Eldest son, aren't you going to do anything about your wife? Are you just letting her insult your mother?"

Liu Daniu: "What my wife said is true, I have no face to speak!"

I used to be a good-for-nothing!

I don't want to be a coward anymore!

"Boss, is it really necessary to keep bringing up those old, trivial matters?"

I'm your own mother! How can you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?

"And you, you brat! It's just a few pounds of pork, and you're already so lawless and disobedient?"

"Grandma, if God had eyes, He should have struck you down first!"

You keep saying my father is your own son, how can you treat your own son like this?

They only make us work, but don't give us enough to eat, don't give us winter clothes, and won't call a doctor if we get sick!

They even sold their own daughter!

Is this something my own grandmother would do?

Tao'er pressed on relentlessly, questioning her sharply.

"I……

He's the boss, if he doesn't do the work, who will?

Back then, families were poor, and whose children didn't go hungry and cold?

"Who doesn't love their younger child more, while the older one suffers?"

Wang continued to argue her point.

At this point, some people nodded in agreement, agreeing that having too many children always puts the eldest child at a disadvantage.

If there is a scholar in the family, they will be given even more love and care.

"Haha! Grandma, other families aren't like yours."

He was ruthless towards his own son, beating and punishing him!

Actually, there's only one reason for this: my father isn't your and Grandpa's biological son, is he?

I'm asking you!

Who could bring themselves to beat their own son to death?

These words caused an uproar!

Liu Laogen panicked and quickly explained, "Tao Yatou, it's not like that."

Your father is of course our biological father.

Your grandmother is too biased; it's her fault!

We'll pay for this pork!

He was thinking to himself, "How did this brat know?"
