Mother Jiang looked at the fearless young girl in front of her, and it was difficult to see her as the same person as the obedient little girl in her memory.
It is said that women have undergone a transformation, and this change is too great.
"Xiaoya, when this person comes into the world, he should be filial to his elders..."
Chu Yunli didn't plan to work today. After making the bed, she was ready to rest. No matter how many things she had to do, she would talk about it tomorrow. She also had dinner and had nothing to do. She grabbed Jiang's mother and dragged her out.
Mother Jiang screamed: "Come quickly, my granddaughter is going to beat her elders..."
While they were talking, the grandfather and grandson had already arrived in the alley. Chu Yunli pushed her away fiercely, and without saying much to her, he walked towards the direction of Jiang's house.
The two sisters-in-law were supposed to be busy at their respective places of work at this time, but because something happened at home in the past two days, they took leave of absence. When they saw Chu Yunli entering the door, they both looked surprised.
Li was curious: "Xiaoya, what's the matter?"
Chu Yunli said rudely: "Take care of your mother-in-law. She has always regarded her son as a treasure. Now if she wants the younger generation to respect her, she should look for her own son. If she is thick-skinned, she can look for her daughter who has been mistreated. No matter how hard she tries, she can't find her.
She is shameless when it comes to my granddaughter, do you want any shame?"
Of course they want to lose face.
The reason why they did not work today is that the sisters-in-law wanted to get rid of their mother-in-law completely, but the men in the family did not agree. They simply did not work to express their dissatisfaction.
Jiang's mother chased her back and heard these words when she reached the door: "Xiaoya, don't go too far."
Chu Yunli turned around and said, "It's the same thing. If you make me miserable, we all shouldn't think about it."
Mother Jiang: "..." She just heard that Xiaoya bought the original Lin family yard and was curious about where the money came from, so she just said a few more words.
"Xiaoya, what did I say wrong? If you have money, you should be filial to your parents!"
Chu Yunli sneered: "I don't have a father. As for my mother...she prefers her younger brothers and sisters. From now on, let her younger brothers and sisters respect her. Then again, I don't owe anyone, and no one can bring bad luck to me."
She turned and left.
Behind her, my grandmother looked at the neighbors who were looking over at her from outside the yard, and she felt angry again in her heart.
Mrs. Zhou said rudely: "Xiaoya has money, that's her business. It doesn't matter what they want to spend on it. It's none of your business to talk too much when you have time. Why don't you clean up the house?"
"When people call you grandma, do you really think you are a serious elder?" Ms. Li said with a mocking look on her face: "What a joke! These people are all mutual. How many benefits have you given Xiaoya since you were a child? Why do you have the nerve to ask others?
Want money?"
Mother Jiang was scolded by her two daughters-in-law, and her face turned red with anger: "You can't live so selfishly. We are all a family, and you have to take care of yourself."
Li sneered again: "It's good that I can take care of myself. I don't have the time to care about others. You are the same. There are more than ten people in the family, old and young, and you can't take care of them. You go to mind other people's business. No wonder they dislike you."
It's ugly, you have never paid much attention to my eldest sister, you have never cared about whether my eldest sister is doing well or not, and now you are going to complain for her... you just want money."
Mother Jiang choked.
She does have this idea. Her daughter is in trouble. If Xiaoya is willing to help, Huixin will not forget to honor her as her own mother after she has money on hand.
"Who doesn't want money? You guys are trying to kick me out every day. After all, you want to save money."
"I want to save money!" Ms. Li said plausibly: "But I don't use outsiders to try. Go to the street and ask, who is willing to serve a mother-in-law like you who even sells her own daughter?"
Zhou nodded: "Yes!"
"You're right." Mother Jiang put her hands on her hips and cursed: "I can barely tolerate the fact that the third child and my wife don't care about me. You are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, and you must provide for me until the end of your life!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Li immediately became happy: "That's right, sister-in-law, don't forget it. All the money my mother asked for helped you fill the hole. I admit that our husband and wife did get some benefits, but compared with you
, it’s just a drop in the bucket. No matter how you calculate it, it’s not our turn to honor your mother.”
She waved her hand: "Ignore those two men, let's divide the family."
It is said that parents do not separate their families when they are together. The two sisters have had this idea for a long time. In the past, they just did not dare to mention it due to old rules.
"How dare you!" Mother Jiang was furious.
The sisters-in-law pretended that she did not exist and began to plan to separate the family.
In fact, there is nothing to divide. The Jiang family has no land. The most valuable thing is the yard. The two brothers share half of it. The rest... food is bought and eaten. Basically, there is no fire in the house. That is to say, Jiang's mother occasionally
Make something to eat.
So, in less than half an hour, the two sisters had already divided the ownership of the house. They even took out the pots and pans in the kitchen and divided them equally. The remaining half bag of rice was divided between each of them.
There were a lot of leftovers from Mrs. Li's job and there was no need to cook. She took the unused things she was assigned directly back to her parents' house. Mrs. Zhou didn't take them away, but she didn't leave anything in the kitchen either.
Instead, he moved into the house where the couple lived.
Mother Jiang watched helplessly as her two daughters-in-law split up the family, leaving nothing but a room for her.
It was getting dark, and Mother Jiang felt cold all over her body.
The next morning, Chu Yunli divided the snacks into about ten portions and went out to give them to neighbors. The last portion was delivered to the Lin family next door.
Lin Jia'an opened the door, saw the plate in her hand, and took it: "Have you had breakfast? I made porridge with chicken soup and will bring it to you later."
Chu Yunli did not refuse: "I'm still busy over there, and a few young sisters-in-law said they would come and help me. Don't cook at noon. I want to treat them to dinner anyway. I'll cook a little more and it will be enough for you.
"
The two were talking at the door. Mother Lin in the room understood her son's words and became anxious. She stretched her neck and saw the slender girl standing at the door through the window. She didn't see her face, but only looked at her face.
When I stand, I feel very elegant.
Can I have a girl with such a temperament?
When her son came in, Mother Lin saw the snacks in his hand, looked at the smile on his lips, and asked tentatively: "Is that person outside the next door neighbor?"
Lin Jia'an nodded.
Seeing that there was no trace of sadness in his face, Mother Lin felt quite complicated: "Jia'an, our mother and son are both sick, and our family is poor. Girls may not like her. Don't pay too much attention to her attitude. I'm afraid you will be sad."
.”
"Don't be sad! I offered to send her porridge, but she didn't refuse." Lin Jia'an smiled and said: "They also said that we should not cook at noon, and she would ask someone to cook more for us.
"
Mother Lin felt as if she was in a dream, and pinched herself hard. The pain hit her, and she became more rational: "This girl... doesn't know how to interact with people very well?"
"She understands." Lin Jia'an blinked: "Your son is good-looking, and she likes it. I will bring her to see you later."
Mother Lin had a look of surprise on her face, and she opened her mouth for a long time before she lowered her voice: "They say cabbage will be eaten by pigs, but you are still a sick pig, how can she like it?"
Lin Jia'an: "..." She is her mother, that's right!
He came here because the mother and son would die of illness and were killed by others at the end of this month.
In the final analysis, I want the side courtyard where they live.
The Lin family's ancestral house has three square corners, but there is an extra corner in the last corner, while the Luo family in the back is missing a corner.
Ever since Grandpa Lin Jia'an's generation, the Luo family has wanted to make up for that corner. Originally, there was nothing that couldn't be discussed. For the Lin family, this area is the woodshed and thatch. But the Luo family is unreasonable, and it has to be that the Lin family has more money.
This part of the house was taken by force and should have belonged to their home.
If you want to get it for free, the Lin family will definitely not do it!
So, Grandpa Lin was pushed by someone when he was visiting a temple fair, and he broke several bones. Because he was old and his bones were not easy to grow, he just collapsed on the bed. He had been lying there for many years, and he usually had to
Drinking medicine almost emptied the Lin family's financial resources. Not long after he left, Lin's father got into another lawsuit when he went out to work. He was a day laborer who helped people build houses. One of the people working together was hit by a piece of wood next to him.
Headache and bleeding.
Although he saved his life, the cost of the medicine was very high, and he was said to be a useless person, demanding compensation from the Lin family, otherwise he would be sued in court.
Lin's father had no choice but to sell the main house and live in the woodshed.
As for why we live here...if we cut out this corner, the Lin family's house is square and square, and can be sold for a good price.
Later, Lin's father fell from the roof and died on the spot. Only mother and son were left to depend on each other. However, since last year, mother and son fell ill successively, and then became more and more seriously ill.
It was also before the Lin family left that the old man from the Luo family came to look at the house and told the truth.
From the time Grandpa Lin fell down, it was the Luo family who was responsible. Later, the day laborer who was beaten to a bloody head was actually the one who took advantage of the Luo family and pulled the wood he had placed on his head. Father Lin pulled the wood over his head from the roof.
It fell down because someone deliberately pulled out a corrugated corrugation and covered it with tiles. Lin's father stepped on it without knowing it, and then returned to the west. The mother and son fell ill because they had been burning medicinal materials on the wall of the two houses all year round.
, causing the mother and son to become seriously ill and die.
It's okay if you don't know. How can Lin Jia'an be willing to know that his whole family died unexpectedly?
The money Chu Yunli had on hand was a lot of money for the people living in this alley. She asked for help and was very practical in cooking. She stewed a large pot of braised pork. After eating, she gave several
The neighbor's sister-in-law each shared a small pot.
In just half a day, people in the alley said that Xiaoya was kind and generous, and that she must have been forced to cut off contact with the Jiang family.
Chu Yunli earned a good reputation for herself without any effort. After seeing off several sisters-in-law, she knocked on the door next door with a meal.
Lin Jia'an turned sideways: "Come in and sit."
Mother Lin had been ill for a long time. She had vaguely heard about the Jiang family before. She had seen Xiaoya when she was a child. In her memory, she was a thin girl with a sallow complexion and dry hair. After seeing Chu Yunli, she sighed: "You are the same as when you were a child.
Nothing like it at all.”
It is said that love comes from the heart, and this is true. Xiaoya's face was full of sorrow before, and her delicate facial features could only be regarded as averagely beautiful.
Now that Chu Yunli has come, she is so white that she is not a queen, but she is still a beauty. Anyway, Mother Lin has lived half her life and has never seen a girl with better appearance and temperament than her.
She knew what her son was thinking, so naturally she couldn't treat him like an ordinary neighbor: "Xiaoya, your craftsmanship is really good. The meat looks delicious at first sight."
After taking a bite, her eyes lit up. It tasted even better than the braised pork she had eaten at the inner city banquet when she was young. The enthusiasm suddenly turned into a hundred percent, and she held Chu Yunli's hand tightly.
