there's no harmony as long as there's no security. people only feel secure when they can meet their basic needs of food, clothing n shelter; plus extras to cover emergencies, education for kids n dowry for marriage.
with d way eldest uncle cater to 2nd n 3rd branches there's already dissent at main branch. for eg. ms xu lived in fear of not having saved enough for her children. she was about to complain when she thought qiao xuan used too much oil something ridiculously petty when u think about it now that they r rich. not to mention everytime ms fang sold a pig both branches popped over n asked for a share of d proceeds. even white flour bought by qiao xuan using her own dowry had to b shared with them.
it was so bad until they don't even have 2 liang to hold shao sanlang's wedding banquet. ms fang had to borrow from qiao xuan b'coz 2nd n 3rd branch said they don't have money. after d incident's over eldest uncle conveniently forgets. when ms zhang kidnapped n asked for ransom money of 100 liang, eldest uncle again stepped up.
did he think where d money came from? did he think it is just 10 liang? bear in mind that 100 liang is 33.33% of qiao xuan's hard-earned dowry, eldest uncle. b'sides he should remember that no nephew's wife supports his uncle's family. that would turn d main branch of shao family into a laughing stock!!!

rubbish! eldest uncle is always holding back shao yunduan for shao liulang to play catch up. its lucky that shao yunduan married qiao xuan n she brought much wealth, stability n harmony to d main branch of shao family. otherwise maybe shao yunduan had to give up studying to cater to shao liulang due to shortage of funds🙄🙄🙄
