Chapter 390 -390: Ruckus
Hang up the phone! Liu Baoguo cheerfully strolled back home with his hands clasped behind his back.
Not only were Wang Yan and Bai Yue living well outside, but his own daughter was also benefiting from the light of Bai Xiao and the others. Now, his own daughter was said to be doing well in the city too. Without the help of Bai Xiao and Bai Yue, a young girl like her, unfamiliar with life in such a place, would never have been able to set up a business.
His daughter had said in her heart that she was making clothes there, and he believed it.
His own daughter was a good hand at making clothes in the village—not to mention the fit of the clothes she made or the fine stitching, which was much better than that of the average old woman.
Now, the days of the Bai Family were getting better and better.
Liu Baoguo couldn’t help but hum a little tune.
All along the road, the villagers greeted him, all with beaming smiles.
He was just about to go home and talk with his wife about this.
But then someone came rushing over in a panic, dragging Liu Baoguo with them.
“Village chief, village chief, something’s happened at Bai Jianguo’s home. You better get there quickly, or there might be a loss of life.”
Liu Baoguo felt sick to his stomach.
All year round, Bai Jianguo’s family was never short of trouble, and he, as the village chief, also got a headache every time he saw Bai Jianguo. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
After the New Year, the Bai Family had to scrounge and borrow from all over to finally marry Wu Xiaoyue into their family. The two families had quite a falling out over the bride price, and the mother from the Wu Family had her eyes set on money. In short, without receiving a satisfactory amount for the bride price and dowry, the daughter would rather die than marry.
In the end, it was the Bai Family who compromised. Bai Zhuang was making threats of life and death at home every day, and Bai Jianguo was helpless, so they ended up borrowing money to make the wedding happen for the young couple.
The problem was, Wu Xiaoyue was no pushover. As soon as she entered the door, she started making a fuss about splitting the family. She was unwilling to be tied to the big family and had her own plans in mind. She wanted to persuade Bai Zhuang to go out and work with her, hearing that a couple could earn a good sum working for others each month.
Without splitting the family, any money they earned would still have to be handed over to her in-laws, and Wu Xiaoyue was certainly not about to agree to that.
Bai Zhuang was a man who listened to his wife and naturally agreed to everything, resulting in quite a commotion between the two and Bai Jianguo’s couple.
Unfortunately, after all Wu Xiaoyue’s fuss, she realized that the house and land didn’t belong to Bai Jianguo’s family. If they really made a scene about splitting the family, they might end up leaving with nothing, not even a place to set foot.
She did think about dragging Bai Zhuang back to her parents’ home, but Bai Zhuang had his pride, and there was no way he would live under the same roof as his in-laws.
So the commotion ended up being fruitless.
The couple couldn’t really just leave with nothing.
Wu Xiaoyue thought it over and decided she couldn’t make too much of a scene for now. She figured she would first give birth to a child. Once the child was born and could be left with her in-laws, she and her husband could go out to work and save up money for a few years, enough to build a tiled house and then live separately with the child.
If she caused too much trouble now, who would take care of the child?
Her parents back home spoke sweet words—she was their only daughter, and they doted on her.
But if she really let her mother take care of the child, with her mother’s eye for money, who knows how much she would demand from them.
It was better to leave the child with her in-laws. After all, it was a child of the Bai Family. They wouldn’t possibly throw the child out, would they?
This way, the couple could work and make money with a little more peace of mind.
But having already made a scene twice in the village, that was causing quite a ruckus.
That’s why Wu Xiaoyue had not been making a fuss lately because she was already five months pregnant.
Now, she was being treated like a sacred Buddha at the Bai Family’s home.
