Chapter 7 Give birth to a debt collector
"You said such a good girl, why did you fall in love with such a family?"

"It's not that Liu's mother is greedy for money. It is said that her mother sold Liu for four taels of silver. For four taels of silver, who do you think is worth four taels of silver?"

"Hey, I've heard about what you said. I heard that the son of the Zhang family had dated many daughters but failed to meet him. Finally, when Mrs. Zhang went out to go to the market, the Mrs. Zhang saw the daughter of the Liu family. At that time, I asked someone to inquire about it, and I heard that a lot of money was returned. Later, when I found out about the Liu family, they gave two liang of silver just for the engagement, and a full four liang of silver for the wedding gift. The silver! Ten or so years ago, four taels of silver, that is worth old money."

The woman stretched out four dark and rough fingers, and everyone envied her.

Four taels of silver, everyone here is married with half a catty of pork and a few catties of rice, not to mention four taels of silver, the sum of betrothal gifts for engagement is less than one tael. A steamed bun and a box of steamed buns may be borrowed, and they have to be returned together with work after marriage.

Four taels of silver, in this poor and remote area, is worth the bride price for a village head and a small county head's family to marry a daughter-in-law.

"Hey, I'm so angry. Four taels of silver, I can't even think about it. When my baby's father married me, he cut off half a catty of meat and took a few buns."

"Just because you look like this, you still want other people to spend four taels of silver? You don't even look at the Liu family, who looks like a red-lipped and white-toothed girl. Before she married, she was a handsome girl from ten miles and eight villages. How can you compare with her?"

"No, look at these cubs. Apart from being thinner and tanned, which one is better than the other? They all have thick eyebrows and big eyes. Look at their daughters, don't look like they are fools. , but if someone is well-parented, even if he is a fool, he can sell it for a good price when he grows up."

The man looked at Xiaoxi enviously, why couldn't his daughter be so good-looking?

"No, look at Xiao Xisheng's, how beautiful and juicy it is."

Someone praised by the crowd: "...."

You gossip about you, can you not bring it up on me?

The daughters-in-law continued to envy Liu's good looks and the ability to sell them for a good price. If they were so good-looking, they would have married the village chief's family as concubines to enjoy the blessings.

There is also the irony of yin and yang and strange sarcasm when others praise Liu's family.

"She doesn't look bad, but it's a pity that her life is thinner than paper. Look at the days when she got married. Was that life a human life? I remember it clearly. In the winter, the cold water in the river They are all one foot thick, and Liu's miserable person is still in confinement and has to smash ice to wash her daughter's diapers. Now it's over, the frozen ones can't give birth, but it doesn't matter if they can give birth, anyway, her husband is gone , It’s just that there are some diseases, once the root of the disease is burned in confinement, you will suffer when you are old.”

The other woman nodded repeatedly when she heard this, and some people echoed in a strange way: "No, it's useless to be good-looking, it depends on whether the marriage is good or the children are good. Such a debt collector, this family may go to the Palace of Hades to reunite within two years."

After the woman finished speaking, several echoes followed and laughed.

Grandma Zhang hugged Xiaoxi and frowned angrily, "Lizi his mother, what kind of bastard are you talking about?"

"Hey, Grandma Zhang, don't be angry, I'm just joking, why are you still angry?"
