Chapter 73 Men become bad when they have money
"What are you talking about, you old man?" Li glared at him, the shameless old man, it's hard to say what he meant.
"Then why are you pulling me?"
For the sake of my daughter, I have no time to argue with him. "Xiaohua said something this afternoon, I want to discuss it with you."
"Hua'er? What's wrong with her?" She didn't say anything was wrong at noon!
Li told him what happened in the afternoon.
"The daughter of the Xia family, the widow? No, no, the eldest son is a respectable man now, how can he marry a widow. There are many teenage girls who want to marry into the family, why should he settle for a widow? It will be so embarrassing if people spread the news."
Lee...
I feel sick to my stomach, this damn old man, what concubine? I'm going to marry into the family, marry into the family!!!
Don't you see what kind of character his eldest son has? Is he not worthy of her? If he didn't have some money, who would be blind enough to look down on him? He is also worthy of a virgin girl? Pah!
"His first wife was a sickly woman. I heard that she couldn't even walk and didn't have the strength to have a wedding. She was still a young girl, but she was called a widow. Even so, she still observed mourning for her husband's family for three years. What a righteous person! And, old man, our Xiaohua's sister-in-law, you want her to be a concubine? Is Xiaohua still a human being? What do you think?"
The old man's head hit the threshold, is he sick?
"What else can I do if I don't want to be your concubine? Will your wife agree to divorce Wang?" Old man Lin didn't understand what his wife meant.
"Marry a concubine and make her your principal wife. Don't some wealthy men in the city marry two principal wives? Dashan is so rich now, if he marries two, people will only praise him for his good fortune."
"Marry two? Is that possible?" Why did he feel it was unreliable?
"Yes, think about it. Xia is the daughter of the Xia family. We are related by marriage. If she marries Dashan, how can she not help her elder brother? If her elder brother is doing well, can Xiaohua not enjoy the good life with him? If Xiaohua is doing well, can she not help Dachuan and the others? Can everyone be well? Dashan is hard-hearted. He would rather give money to others than to his own brothers. You can't count on him. Besides, Xia is in good health. If she goes over there, she can be guaranteed to have two children in three years. Isn't she better than Wang, the wife who doesn't lay eggs and is crooked?"
That's right, Wang only has her poor natal family in her heart, and she doesn't care about the Lin family or her father-in-law. She finds this daughter-in-law annoying no matter how she looks at her.
"Will Dashan agree?" He knew that his son loved Wang very much.
"What man doesn't want something new? Even a blind man would choose Wang, the old pickled vegetable bangzi, over Xia, the lively one. Besides, it's not like Wang is being divorced, it's just that there's one more person to serve Dashan. This is a good thing, it will help Wang share the hard work, and by having a son, she will be worthy of Dashan and her ancestors. Dashan will definitely not refuse. It's such a great thing, why would he disagree? What do you think?"
Li said it with certainty. Men become bad when they have money. Who doesn't like to have three wives and four concubines and be surrounded by beautiful women? No matter how righteous Lin Dashan pretended to be, she didn't believe that he didn't want to do it deep down? It was just that no one helped him to speak up.
Old man Lin agreed with this. There is no cat that doesn't want to steal some fish. If the old woman helped him find a girl, he would be reluctant to refuse.
"The Xia family is also willing?"
"I am willing, Xiaohua is sincere. Xia once saw Dashan from afar in the city, and she has taken a fancy to him! A widow rarely goes out. You see, this fate must be brought together by God."
After thinking it over again and again, Old Man Lin also felt that this was feasible. This time, he was only thinking about the eldest son's descendants and wanted the best for him. He had considered all aspects carefully and was very dedicated, so the eldest son could not find fault with it.
Thinking of how touched Lin Dashan would be tomorrow, Old Man Lin raised his chin slightly with a hint of pride.
Look at what a father he is, who can say no to him!
"Tomorrow, ask Lao Er to ask him to come over. As for the oil skin, Xiaohua wants to buy it from Dashan. It's not like he won't pay, so there must be no problem. It's okay to sell it to others, but not to your own family? That doesn't make sense."
This will definitely succeed, Old Man Lin didn't hesitate at all.
It snowed heavily outside all night, but the people in the house didn't notice it at all. They wrapped themselves in warm quilts and slept well all night.
The next day, the sky was covered with snow, and the air was cold.
"Brother, it's snowing too hard today. Let's take a day off and go sell goods tomorrow."
Lin Dahai pulled his cotton-padded jacket closer, put his hands in his sleeves, and huddled by the stove.
Looking at the snow outside that is above my calves, who would come out to buy snacks in such heavy snow?
"Okay, take a day off." Lin Dachuan didn't want to go out either. Selling goods in winter was really a torture. The cold wind chilled him to the bone, and his hands and feet were covered with frostbite.
"Second brother, second brother, go to the farm and ask your eldest brother to come over. Your father wants to see him for something."
Lin Dachuan just wanted to hide in bed...
"Mom, I'll go have breakfast later."
"Go now, your father is in a hurry."
Mrs. Li couldn't wait because her little Hua was still waiting.
Seeing his mother's anxious look, Lin Dachuan had no choice but to get up and harness the ox cart.
As soon as he went out, he took a sip of the cold wind and said, "Shh, it's so cold!" He couldn't help shrinking his neck and stamping his frozen feet. When he had more money next year, he would buy a cape and a pair of leather boots.
"Da Ya, San Ya, come quickly, let's make a snowman!"
Lin Xiaomi, wearing a pink cape and deerskin boots, was very excited to see the snow. Emma, she could finally make a snowman. In the past, she was frozen to death every year. Apart from hiding in bed, she had no mood to play in the snow. This year, she finally had a warm winter.
Sure enough, people will pursue the spiritual world only when their material needs are met.
Wang was also wearing a thick cotton coat and skirt. She was a little worried and warned him, "Don't play for too long. It's cold outside."
"understood!"
"Guan's, go make a bowl of ginger soup for Xiaomi."
"Yes."
Guan touched the thick winter clothes on her body. Thanks to the master's blessing this year, they, the servants, all had new cotton-padded jackets and no longer had to suffer from the cold.
"Madam, the second master is here. He said he needs to go to the old house and will come back for breakfast."
"understood."
Wang was puzzled, what was so urgent that even breakfast was not allowed!
