The Tao family wanted to have a son, but they gave birth to seven daughters in a row. Their daughters were all at a loss! Tao Sixping sighed helplessly for not having a son's life. However, the Wang family did not think so. Their daughter was also her heart. She had to raise her daughter stronger than the sons of other families, even at the cost of her life. With such a tough mother, the girls of the Tao family were more and more alive...
In March of the spring, the breeze brought warmth. The clear sky was clear without clouds. The blazing sun hung in the sky, shining brightly and shining on the surface of the Nine-dragon River.
At this moment, it was the season of spring farming. All the villagers in the Shanghe Village were busy in the fields. Spring farming was an important season, and only in spring and autumn could there be harvest. The harvest of a year was all here, so all the labor of each family was busy farming.
The Tao family in the village couldn't bear it. The Wang family, who was pregnant for ten months, gave birth to another daughter today. The mother-in-law, the Huang family, didn't even care about the work in the fields and stopped at the gate of the Wang family and shouted abuse.
"Oh my god, what did the Tao family do? They married such a little girl who didn't know how to give birth to a son. She's a lost star. What the hell is going on? How did she end up in the Tao family's house..."
"You're such a good-for-nothing. You've given birth to a good-for-nothing. You're useless. It's really a cheap food to marry you. What's the use of you being so good-looking? You're giving birth to a son..."
"What's the point of keeping such a useless thing at home? Let my son divorce you. Getting my son to marry someone who can give birth to a son is the most important thing..."
"Old woman, why are you cursing? Do you have a sixth daughter-in-law?" Tao Zhenghong, who had just come back from his work, heard a curse when he entered the door. He was quite dissatisfied.
"Oh, old man, don't mention it. He gave birth to another money-losing thing. In addition, there are already seven of them. The Wang family is capable enough to give birth, but they don't have a son. What's the use of giving birth to one? They eat their family's food, but when they grow up, they are someone else's family. Why did they raise them?" Mdm Huang was indignant. The more she said, the angrier she became.
When Tao Zhenghong heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. A family could only give birth to a son to help their family. Young ladies were raised for others, and even seven of them were young ladies. He had nothing to say. No wonder the old woman was so unhappy. Even he himself felt unlucky.
The women of the Zhu and He families, who came back with him, all had a gloating smile on their faces as they listened to the birth of a girl. The Wang family was beautiful and had their own ideas. More importantly, Tao Liuping treated the Wang family well. He was so considerate and obedient that he did whatever they asked him to do. He didn't even speak seriously in daily life. He talked softly with a smile on his face. Compared with their husband Tao Yiping and Tao Erping, he was not like a mother at all. How could they not be envious and jealous?
"What are you doing at the door? Can't you let us in?" Tao Wuping and his wife came back and crowded at the door.
Mrs. Huang glanced at them. Mrs. Zhu and He hurried inside and made way for the door. Since Mrs. Huang was the only one at home, her daughters-in-law were naturally afraid of her. They tried to avoid her eyes, but they failed.
"Why are you still standing here? You don't have to cook quickly. You're just here to watch the fun. You're like a wooden stake without any eyes. Why do you want me to poke you?" Mdm Huang scolded angrily.
The three daughters-in-law of Mrs. Xu, who had just entered the door, did not dare to say a word and went to the kitchen obediently. During this period, Mrs. Xu also asked in a low voice, "What did Sixth Sister-in-law give birth to?"
Madam He hurriedly said, "There's another girl!" She couldn't hide her joy in Ning Xueyan's misfortune.
Even Mdm Zhu had a smile on her face. The Wang family was quite capable of giving birth to seven babies in a row in a few years. Not to mention other things, they did not have much work to do, such as pregnancy, sitting under the moon, and nursing children. They were both daughters-in-law, but she raised them all clean and clean. The rest of them were like sticks of fire.
Although they whispered, Mrs. Huang still heard it. She didn't blame her daughters-in-law for talking nonsense. But when she heard the word "maid", she became angry again.
The Huang family shouted at the top of their lungs, "The woman who killed a thousand knives must have a grudge against us in her last life. She married into our family and harmed our family in this life..."
"Mom, what are you doing? Did her mother give birth to the baby? What is she going to give birth to?" Tao Liuping and his brothers came home together. In a hurry, they had a daughter-in-law and a baby. They rushed to the front of the brothers and hurried back.
Logically speaking, he should accompany a daughter-in-law to give birth to a child. However, as a man, he couldn't help much. Besides, it was busy with farm work now, and his mother was watching over him at home. He didn't have to worry about it since the midwife had invited him.
Seeing that his sixth son had come to ask, Mrs. Huang said angrily, "You have another baby girl. Look at your wife. What's the use of giving birth to a baby girl? You're not young anymore, and you don't even have a good job. I think it's better to divorce her, and then we should marry a man who can give birth to a son."
When Tao Sixping heard that he had another daughter, he showed disappointment on his face. He was 29 this year, and he would be in his prime next year. It was a little unreasonable that he didn't have a son, but it wasn't that he and his wife couldn't have children. He had seven children in a row, but seven of them were all daughters. He didn't know what to say.
"Mother, why do you say that? It's not that her mother can't give birth to a child. Maybe the next child will be her son!" Tao Liu said in a flat voice. He liked the beautiful Wang family very much. Even if he had seven daughters in a row, he had no intention of divorce.
Hearing this, Mdm Huang choked with sobs. It was true that a daughter-in-law didn't want a mother.
"She has already given birth to seven little girls. How many more little girls do you want her to give birth to? How can she raise so many little girls? Besides, she is raised by someone else's family. What else do you think you can do?" Mdm Huang said exasperatedly.
Tao Sixping was not a person who was good at talking. When he heard his mother's aggressive scolding, he was speechless for a moment. He shrank his neck and stepped aside.
Mrs. Huang was already in a bad mood. When she saw that her son was still protecting the Wang family, she felt that the Wang family was not good. "An indecent woman, other than seducing a man to speak up for her, what else can she do? A girl has a nest of her own. She's simply a scourge!"
"Oh, my Tao family is really evil. If we marry such a troublemaker, the whole family will be ruined by her!"
Tao Yiping and his two brothers also came back. From a distance, they heard the curses of the Huang family. When they walked into the courtyard, no one said a word and went straight into the hall.
Tao Liuping looked at his brothers eagerly, but none of them gave him a look. He wanted to enter the house like his brother, but his mother didn't say anything. He didn't dare to move. He just stood where he was, waiting for her to call him tired.
While he was thinking, he noticed the movement of his clothes. He looked down and found that his eldest daughter was looking at him with a pair of black grape-like eyes.
"Dad, what are you cursing?"
"Are you going to pick vegetables in the field? You can carry such a big basket. I don't know if you can come back and call your father..." Tao Liuping said with distress. Although she was a daughter, she was still his child. Of course, he felt sorry for her.
When Lady Huang heard his words, she became angry again.
"She's just a little girl. What's wrong with letting her do some work? You still feel sorry for her. She's not a son. It's useless to treat her like a treasure." Turning his head, he shouted at Xiang Hua'er, "You little girl, you've learned how to coax people at such a young age from your mother. You don't need to learn anything, but you should learn this set. You can't take away the most important parts of this basket. Sure enough, the little girl is not as good as you." Mdm Huang was very angry that her son was partial to his daughter-in-law. He even felt sorry for the little girl who was assigned to do some work. She was just a little girl, could she still be raised like a young lady?
