45 Heart-Poking
Second Uncle and Ms. Niu kept complaining, making Eldest Uncle flush over in embarrassment.
He could not possibly use his daughter-in-law’s dowry to support his brothers.
Ms. Fang sneered and said, “Are you done? Then give it back to me if you find it so little! You are forcing your brother to use his daughter-in-law’s dowry to support you? Do you have any conscience or not?”
Second Uncle was startled.
Ms. Niu pursed her lips. “I think the dowry is just an excuse…”
Ms. Fang got annoyed. “Ms. Niu, do you want me to make a list of what you have forced me to pay all this while? Do we have any savings? We have used all the savings to support you. As a result, we aren’t able to afford anything! You are a healthy family and you have fields too. Still, you want my daughter-in-law to support you? Shame on you!”
Whenever they brought something home, the second and the third section would want to have a portion of that.
The second and third section of the family knew pretty well how the first section of the family was doing.
Ms. Fang pulled away Eldest Uncle. “What are you doing here? How dare you try to calculate my daughter-in-law’s dowry! I will keep my eyes on that!”
Eldest Uncle was pulled away by Ms. Fang.
Ms. Niu and Second Uncle exchanged a look between themselves and did not dare to run after them.
Eldest Uncle sighed and felt confused.
Obviously, he had been poked in the heart by his brother and sister-in-law.
“That was four kgs of excellent flour!”
And they were complaining about the amount and forcing him to lecture his daughter-in-law!
Ms. Fang felt quite happy about this, but she was annoyed too. So she tried to restrain herself…
She pretended not to have seen anything, but asked Eldest Uncle to come along to visit the third section of the family.
Eldest Uncle started to panic. He did not want to join her anymore.
He felt very messy in his heart and could not stand the stimulation. What if his third brother and wife were like this too? He would definitely collapse!
But Ms. Fang did not want him to retreat at this moment. She forced him to come along, after all.
Eldest Uncle had to follow up…
Sure enough, his third brother and wife did the same thing.
They were not as sharp-tongued as the second brother and his wife, yet they were basically expressing the same thing.
They thought that they had got too little flour…
Moreover, Ms. Ma asked him to get Ms. Qiao to apologize to her…
Eldest Uncle felt so heart-broken.
He said nothing. He did not even know how he made out of the third section.
Everyone found that their father was not in the right mood at breakfast.
They exchanged a look between themselves and did not dare to say a thing.
Ms. Fang threw a hint at everyone, so they felt assured.
After breakfast, Eldest Uncle took his two sons to the field for farmwork, and Ms. Fang, and Taotao were taking care of the infants and making lunch at home. Ms. Xu, on the other hand, was plowing the field.
Shao Xiaoqi decided to have a tour around Wangqing Mountains. Otherwise he would have joined his father and brothers too.
Shao Yunduan was different. He was devoted to work and sometimes helped with the farmwork in the field, when the season was busy.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Taotao wanted to join Shao Xiaoqi for the tour, so did Shao Yunduan.
Ms. Fang was aware that her sons knew what they should and shouldn’t do, so she asked them to take good care of Qiao Xuan and said nothing more.
Wangqing Mountains was a bit far away from Shaoding Village, and it took them three hours to arrive there.
It was a beautiful place with ancient woods growing into the mountains. The temperature was two or three degrees lower than that in the village, and it was an enormous mountain.
It was a good place to set up traps for large beasts, not for small animals like roosters or rabbits, because there were many beasts living in the mountains, and the small ones were eaten up by those big ones.
