Chapter 604 Mother-in-Law's Sorrow

It was rare to see Ms. Li's shy look. Bai Yunxi held back her laughter and reached out to pinch her cheeks, which were full of collagen. "It looks good. This dress matches you very well."

Young people exude youthful vitality from the inside out and look good in whatever they wear.

"The second sister-in-law is more beautiful than the bride." Bai Anjing came over and stayed up all night to embroider two peony flowers for her. She is still dozing off.

The family sent Ms. Li to the gate, watched the bullock cart slowly leave, and then turned to go home.

Just a moment after entering the door, Mrs. Song Wang came to the door, "Yunxi, I heard that you bought the slope land on the other side of the river again?"

"Did it spread so fast?" Bai Yunxi let people into the room and let out a surprised sound.

"Yesterday someone saw a government official measuring the slope, and it spread all over the place."

Mrs. Song Wang sat down opposite her,

"Everyone is familiar with that piece of broken land. It's full of sand and gravel. It's useless to plant anything. Aren't you afraid of wasting it?"

Listening to Mrs. Song's worried look, Bai Yunxi pushed a plate of melon seeds in front of her and chuckled.

"To tell you the truth, this time I bought the sloping land not to open up wasteland to grow food, but to build a duck farm."

Hearing Baiyunxi's plan, Song Wang was stunned, "Duck farm?"

"That's right, when you grow up, you can sell ducks and duck eggs to make a living for your family. What else will I do as a family?"

Baiyunxi cracked a melon seed and looked at Mrs. Song's surprised eyes.

"That's my plan. I haven't even written it yet. Just know it and don't tell anyone."

Bai Yunxi looked at her and sighed helplessly,

"If you have scholars in your family, you should always plan ahead."

"That's true. My family is exempt from taxes because of Jie Geer, but the expenses will be more in the future, and the head of the family and I are also worried."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Song Wang looked at Baiyun River,

"My good sister, do you think my family is suitable for something to do? Can you give me some advice for my sister-in-law? To be honest, in the past, Brother Jie always took some jobs copying books for people in the town bookstore. Now he has become a scholar. The price of copying books is also much higher, but I always copy books for others, and I am afraid that it will delay their studies. "

"Although Jie Geer said there would be no delay, I always feel that he just wants to comfort me and lighten my burden."

Listening to Mrs. Song's distressed tone, Bai Yunxi thought for a moment.

"If we have scholars in our family, we cannot easily go into business. However, breeding is still within the scope of agriculture. There are not many varieties of poultry and livestock. As for what to raise, you have to discuss it with your family."

Mrs. Song Wang nodded,

"You're right. You really need to think about it carefully. I still need to discuss this matter with my boss and my wife, so as not to say I'm partial."

She was afraid that her son-in-law would complain if her bowl of water was dishonest.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Song Wang looked at Du Shi and Xiao Jingzi who were busy in the yard, and secretly moved closer to Baiyun Xi.

"Sister, tell me sister-in-law, how do you manage to have so many children and still be happy with them?"

Listening to Mrs. Song's inquiry, Bai Yunxi looked at her teasingly.

"Sister-in-law, such a rich and intelligent person, will also encounter difficulties?"

"Oh, please stop teasing me. My daughter-in-law is not as obedient and obedient as you two. Every time the couple murmurs, the boss's face stays gloomy all day long. It makes me want to slap the sole of his shoe. "

Mrs. Song waved her hands, very irritated.

"Sometimes, I wonder, what are you doing with so many children? All of them are debt collectors and don't make people worry."

Bai Yunxi also agrees with this. In this era of lack of food and clothing, raising children is really troublesome.

Even so, I still can't bear to be born, because everyone believes in the saying that more children bring more blessings.

Moreover, the conditions here are backward, not all the children born can be raised, and many of them die young. Therefore, whether wealthy people or poor people, the idea of ​​having children is the same.

"There are many children in the family, so neglect is inevitable, but I just remember one thing: treat my daughter-in-law first. For example, when the seasons change, and I need to buy clothes for the family, I prepare them first for my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law. We all came here when we were young, who doesn't like it? New clothes to wear?”

Speaking of this, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of Xiaosi's complaints.

"As for the son, a spring and autumn shirt will be enough for him every year. For boys, there is no need to wear fancy clothes, just some clothes will be fine."

Song Wang: "..."

Shouldn't we dress the man tightly first? After all, when a man goes out, he needs to be more particular. Women take care of the housework, so there is no need to dress too well.

Listening to Mrs. Song's thoughts, Baiyunxi curled her lips.

"I used to stick to my son first, but the family was not so harmonious. Now I stick to my daughter-in-law and daughter, and my sons have nothing to complain about."

"……is this okay?"

Mrs. Song smacked her lips and turned to look at Du and Xiaojing who were busy in the yard. Although they were wearing old clothes, they had silver ornaments hanging on their buns and ears. It looked like they were newly bought. .

As for the eldest nephews of the Bai family, their clothes are 60% to 70% new every time they see them.

He didn't pay attention before, but now after hearing what Bai Yunxi said, Song Wang couldn't help but feel happy.

"You still have a smart mind. I'll give it a try later. You don't know that although my eldest daughter-in-law has always been humble and submissive, I know she is dissatisfied. Even the boss complains occasionally. , saying that my bowl of water was not fair and I treated him badly."

"Once or twice, I gave him a good scolding the day before yesterday. Brother Jie was selected as a scholar, so he didn't have to pay taxes on the land, and all he saved was food rations. Besides, if the boss didn't have talent in studying, it wouldn't be Brother Jie's turn. Son."

Listening to Song Wang's complaints, Bai Yunxi was stunned. When they first moved to the shack, they had seen Song Kun a few times. It was obvious from the man's eyes that he was not a real person. He did not look like a big brother. He was a bit like Bai Anchen, the bear cub.

To make Song Wang feel irritated, the couple must have been making trouble a lot on weekdays.

"The balance between brothers really needs to be taken seriously. Just make it clear and let them choose. If he feels that he is losing out by paying all the time, it is also a solution to separate them and live separately."

Bai Yunxi looked at Song Wangshi's surprised eyes,

"Think about your two younger brothers-in-law. The same goes for your eldest son. If he feels that he is losing out by supporting his younger brother's education, once he feels resentful, it is easy to make a feud. Instead of tearing each other apart and being neither brothers nor brothers, it is better to deal with it as soon as the signs are found."

Song Wangshi was silent for a moment,

"In fact, I don't mind separating the children. We are all daughters-in-law. We all like to live our own lives behind closed doors and let the elders interfere less."

"But if I separate the eldest couple and live separately, it will definitely affect their reputation...Besides, he and Jie Ge'er are brothers, and they are closer than my two younger brothers-in-law."

No matter how far Jie Ge'er can go, as long as the family is not separated, the eldest couple will benefit.
