Chapter 140: Two-in-one slap in the face, please vote for me~(1/2)

 As for the fact that Lao Mei’s family had money but didn’t give it to Mei Dahu, Mei Berry and the others didn’t know about it at first.

After all, Mei Dahu didn’t say anything either.

But after her uncle failed to borrow money from their family and left, her father and third uncle analyzed it together.

First of all, it is attitude.

If they don't want their eldest son to participate in the corvee, Lao Mei's family will have to find a way even if they don't have money.

Even if no solution was found in the end, at least Mei Dahu's name would have to be reported later, instead of reporting Mei Dahu's name when there were still a few days to prepare.

Even Mei Dahu can think of borrowing money everywhere, so if he really doesn't want Mei Dahu to participate in the corvee, why does the matter of borrowing money require Mei Dahu to appear?

I'm afraid that if it weren't for Mrs. Zhang, she might be able to boss things around and rely on her old man to sell her old man to come to Mei Dahu to ask for money.

And now that Mei Dahu has come out to borrow it himself, it can be seen that the situation at Lao Mei's house is not that simple.

It is even possible that Mei Dahu had conflicts over this, leading him to borrow money himself.

Judging from the past situation, Meiyang's autumn repairs are about to be handed in, and it is impossible for Lao Mei's family to be unprepared.

Therefore, the most likely conflict is that Lao Mei's family has money, but they don't want to spend it for Mei Dahu.

That's why Meiberry dared to say this.

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Zhang, who came to take a peek at the excitement, instantly lost her guard.

She stood directly at the end of the crowd and cursed at Mei Berry: "You damn girl, what are you talking about?!"

"ah!?"

Mei Bei was dumbfounded. When she turned around from her mother's arms, she saw Mrs. Zhang standing at the back of the crowd with an angry look on her face.

She never expected that her grandma Zhang would hear these words!

Although Mei Mei was panicked at the time, she pointed her hand towards Granny Ge very honestly and opened her mouth: "Mistress, I'm not talking nonsense, Granny Ge said it all. I just followed her words!"

Mrs. Gerard: "What?"

Before Granny Ge understood what was going on, she heard Mei You also add: "Yes, grandma, don't accuse my sister wrongly. Granny Ge said that uncle has no money, all the money is with you."

Listening to what Mei You said, Mrs. Zhang looked at the people around her, and some people nodded secretly, which was regarded as acquiescence that what Mei You said was true.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang didn't understand anything. She immediately turned around and shouted at Mrs. Ge with concentrated anger: "Ge Shufen! What grudges do I have with you? What grudges do I have with you? You want to ruin my reputation outside like this!"

"Where is the grudge or grudge? Isn't what I said the truth?"

Although Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she jumped on the spot and looked like she was going to rush forward to fight with her immediately, but Mrs. Ge also understood that she had already said what she said, so she might as well fight to the end!

"Obviously you are biased. You will have money to educate your younger son, but you will have no money to support your older son in doing labor. Don't you just dream that one day your younger son will win the exam and become an official lady? You are the one Snobbish!”

"Bah! You damn old woman, don't talk nonsense!"

"Am I talking nonsense? It's because you are partial, otherwise the second and third sons would split up now. Who wouldn't know in this village?

Before the family was separated, you worked hard to exploit the two brothers. After the family was separated, you still wanted to get benefits from them. When you failed to get the benefits, you said all kinds of bad things about them!

If everyone doesn’t say anything, you just treat people as fools! People have to believe whatever you say, huh?!"

After saying that, Mrs. Ge glanced around and asked the people around her: "Am I right?! Could it be that some of you are really stupid and believed her words?"

Mrs. Ge opened her mouth and started to rant. She was clearly saying something bad about the Meiberry and Meiyou families before, but now she turned around and everything became her fault again.

Mayberry almost died laughing.

[Congratulations to the host, the punch-in scene "cleared the reputation (70%)", a total of 50 kilograms of dried noodles and 20 kilograms of rice noodles will be awarded. All rewards have been distributed to the system space, please check the host in time.]

Mayberry: Huh??

She was watching two old ladies having a verbal spat, and this task had only been completed so far?!

Originally, everyone in Lao Mei's family could only talk a few words in private, at least they wouldn't bring it up casually in front of the person involved, but Mrs. Ge didn't want to.

She was going to tell all the embarrassing things about Lao Mei's family in front of so many people in Cun Ming!

At this time, Mrs. Zhang's blood was so full that she didn't care about anything else. She started scolding her directly: "Ge Shufen, what kind of good person do you think you are?

How old is your youngest son this year? He is nineteen years old, and his daughter-in-law has only been married for two years and she still has a son!

Good guy, the corvee is so hard and tiring. Even if you let your younger son go for two consecutive years, you are reluctant to let your older son go!

You are the biased and poisonous woman! I even knew I would have done it with my son instead!"

Oh~ It’s just that the sons exchanged do not include Mei Dahu and Mei Yang.

Meiberry listened and complained silently in her heart.

"Ah, what? Do you also admit that hard labor is hard? It was difficult for me to give birth to the eldest son. The eldest son has always been in poor health. Otherwise, how could I be willing to let the youngest go?

Let me tell you, as long as my family has money, the youngest of my family will not go there! Unlike you, any money you have is reserved for the fourth child, and you don’t care about the lives of the other sons!"

Mrs. Zhang, who was being sprayed by Mrs. Ge, turned red in the face, but she became even more fierce when she saw this. The two ladies were quarreling back and forth.

Whose idea and dirty things are all shaken out.

Upon seeing this, Mei Berry quietly moved to Mei You's side and asked in a low voice: "Sister, you called me for my milk?"

"No, I'm not interested in causing trouble for myself."

Mei You denies it, how can she be so free that she has to look for her breasts to come to her house?

"Oh, so my breasts are quite...what a coincidence?"

Mrs. Ge and her grandma seemed to be in the middle of a burden. There was no need for the Mayberry family to say anything at the moment, and Meiyou didn't need to pay much attention. The two families silently watched the two old ladies in the center of the crowd fight each other.

Meiberry couldn't help but think that the main force checking in this time would be neither his own family nor the heroine's family, but her breasts, right?

Just like how to clear up your reputation, who would have known that it was Mrs. Gerard who did the most?

This is suddenly 70%!

"I can't help it. I only have so little money at home, and the palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh. If their two families hadn't split up this year and had so much money taken away from the family, how could I be in such a difficult situation now?!"

One moment, Mei Berry thought it was dog biting dog, but the next moment, she was able to blame the two families.

"Hey~ Mom, what you said is that there is no difference in money between families. Why don't you just point out a hole and let us two lie in it? You can bury it~"

Seeing that Zhang suddenly turned around and wanted to pick up soft persimmons, Mei You asked her to find out whether she was pinching soft persimmons.

"If we don't separate our families, I am afraid that the corvee will fall on my father or my second uncle again this year. You will be so happy then. You will have money and your uncle will not have to suffer, right?"

These words simply spoke to Zhang's heart.

On the one hand, she thought there was nothing wrong with her idea, but she could hear the irony in Mei You's words.

There seemed to be many people around who looked at him with disdain upon hearing this.

This denial of what she thought was a very correct view made Ms. Zhang very angry. She shouted loudly as if she wanted to prove that she was right:

"So what?!

Your father and the others were fine in the past two years, so what’s wrong with participating again?! After saving so much money, what’s the problem with providing for the fourth child’s education?

When the fourth child becomes prosperous, all of you brothers will benefit from it!

You two are not good at it, you just want to gain glory and are not willing to put in any effort, so you are selfish!"

After hearing this, everyone present with normal views frowned.

But Mei Bei still saw it, and a few secretly nodded in support of Zhang's statement!

Ma Dan, a quarrel witnessed the diversity of species.

"Nai, after all, you and your uncle are the same family now, and you are unwilling to pay for your elder brother's labor service.

If your own family doesn’t agree with something, what do we, the outsiders who have separated from each other, count?”

Mei Youcai ignored Zhang's hysteria and just insisted on one thing. She was not willing to pay for it. Now that it was exposed and lost face, who should be blamed?

"Yes, our family didn't spend more than one tael to build this house from beginning to end. After paying off the corvee, we only had one tael in hand, so it was useless to lend it to my eldest brother."

This time, Mr. Miao gave an accurate estimate of the cost of building a house.

"That is to say, our family only has a few dozen dollars left for food, which is not even enough for our three younger siblings~"

Wei Meili's tone was slow and leisurely, which was completely different from Zhang's words, which seemed to be on fire and babbled about a hundred words a minute.

"If we borrow it all, can you make up for the rest, milk, for uncle?"

Meiyou asked immediately.

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth and hesitated for a moment.

Now, when Wei Meili saw this, she simply gave her mother-in-law another decisive blow:

"If I were a mother, I would first pay the corvee for my eldest brother, and then let him go out and continue working to make money.

The corvee fee is five cents a day, and the eldest brother's work must be more than five cents a day.

At that time, two months until the autumn harvest will be another income, and it will be enough for Shu You, the fourth uncle, to make up for it.

Even if it's not enough, it's not impossible to borrow it from our two companies when the time comes.

After all, after two months, our two families have found work and harvested the autumn harvest. We are richer now than when we had just finished the corvee.
To be continued...
