Chapter 219: Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Battle 4 If the quarrel continues, our son will never...

Xu Wei shivered suddenly. It was the height of summer, but he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

No wonder Qi Changxiao gave him three addresses and asked him to talk to others and get to know Chu Lingyi again.

No wonder Yao Zhizhi would speak up for Zhou Juan, even though she was one of the people who hated Zhou Juan the most.

No wonder Zhou Juan was so angry that she wanted to divorce him this time. They had been married for so many years and had many quarrels, but Zhou Juan had never said such words.

He was stupid, his brain was full of water, and he was actually deceived by Chu Lingyi's illusion.

No matter how bad Zhou Juan was, she would just quarrel with his mother. If things got out of hand, she would throw things and have a cold war. She didn't do what Chu Lingyi did, and directly fight with her mother-in-law.

Looking at the hair pulling, it was like two baboons who had forgotten how to evolve. The shrill voices, the ferocious facial features, the spit flying from the mutual abuse...

A drop of white saliva splashed over, and Xu Wei subconsciously stepped back, not noticing Zhou Juan standing on the second-floor stairs watching the fun.

He walked around and rushed to the inpatient department.

When he opened the ward door, Zhou Juan was not there. Xu Wei looked at Liu Xiaoyu who was packing her things and asked quickly, "Where's your sister-in-law?"

"Let's go to the outpatient hall in front to see what's going on." Liu Xiaoyu also wanted to go, but her cousin's wife had a lot of things with her since she was hospitalized for a few days, so she had to take the washbasin, kettle and other things with her.

When she looked up, her cousin was standing there like a wooden statue.

In Liu Xiaoyu's impression, her cousin is a representative of smart people. He has good grades and a high degree of education. He is also Mr. Chang's favorite student. Maybe he can produce some scientific research results in the future.

In short, my cousin is the best child in the family, no doubt about it.

And now, her extremely smart cousin looked like he had lost his soul, his eyes were out of focus and he was in a daze.

Liu Xiaoyu was stunned. She quickly put down her work and walked over to help him. "Cousin, what's wrong with you? Did you get a heat stroke? Sit still. I'll call a doctor for you."

Why call a doctor? Xu Wei suspected that he had just been standing in the hall stupidly and might have been seen by Zhou Juan.

But he didn't notice where Zhou Juan was standing at all.

It was all over now. Zhou Juan didn't know how to laugh at him. He was a very proud person, and his face was burning with shame for a moment.

I quickly called Liu Xiaoyu back: "Don't go, pour me a glass of water, I'm thirsty."

Liu Xiaoyu uttered an "oh" and hurried to pour some water, but the water was very hot. She could only ask with concern, "How about you just hold on a little while, and I'll buy you half a watermelon?"

"No need, just like this." Xu Wei took the teacup, and the boiling hot water made his dazed mind recover a little.

He lowered his head, letting the steam hit his face. In his blurred vision, he seemed to see Zhou Juan standing high up, looking down at his embarrassment and helplessness.

He just sat in front of the bed, waiting for the mocking voice to reach his ears.

At that time, Zhou Juan would definitely use the most harsh words to ridicule, mock and laugh at him.

And he will have to bear all this silently because of his foolish behavior.

However, he did not wait for Zhou Juan to come back.

Soon, Liu Xiaoyu ran back and told him: "Sister-in-law is gone. Let me tell you, go back quickly and don't delay your business."

Xu Wei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It’s better that he’s gone.

Wait! Gone?

Xu Wei's reaction was a beat slower. He suddenly raised his head and asked, "Where did she go?"

"I don't know." Liu Xiaoyu looked bewildered. "She can't have gone back to work, right? Didn't the doctor tell her to rest for a few more days?"

Xu Wei didn't know either, so he quickly picked up his things and went back to check.

When I arrived at the staff dormitory, I found the door was still locked. Maybe Zhou Juan hadn't come back yet?

When he unlocked the door and pushed it open, he was dumbfounded.

It was obvious that something was missing from the room. Zhou Juan's clothes and toiletries were gone, as well as her shoes and personal belongings.

Xu Wei opened the three-door cabinet and closed it again, checked it inside and out, and came to only one conclusion - Zhou Juan was really gone.

She doesn't want him anymore.

She means business!

Xu Wei didn't have time to lock the door, leaving Liu Xiaoyu in the house, and turned around and ran away. The bicycle was still downstairs. It was strange. If Zhou Juan wanted to move, why didn't she call someone to help?

Or, while he was at the experimental field...

He quickly got on his bike and went to the publishing house to check it out.

"Zhou Juan isn't here." Yao Zhizhi looked at Xu Wei calmly, "Shouldn't you be taking care of her in the hospital?"

Xu Wei lowered his head dejectedly: "My cousin is taking care of her. She was discharged from the hospital today and I don't know where she went."

Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything and lowered her head to busy herself with her own things.

After Xu Wei left, she sighed silently, wondering if she had known this would happen.

More than an hour later, Zhou Juan came back and returned the key to Yao Zhizhi: "I told that sister-in-law Xie that I've been living with her these days. She wasn't angry and even helped me pack my luggage. Thank you. I've made a copy of the key, and I'm giving it back to you."

Zhou Juan was talking about Shen Qingwan, who claimed to be surnamed Xie. She would be living in San Tiao Hutong these days.

Yao Zhizhi didn't look up, but asked calmly, "Hiding like this isn't a solution. He'll come to the publishing house looking for you. Have you figured out how to deal with it?"

"Let's take it one step at a time. Doesn't he think that woman is good? I'll help him." Zhou Juan was still angry. She touched her wig and said, "Thank you. This wig looks pretty good."

"It's okay, go back and rest." Yao Zhizhi was busy and had no time to chat.

Zhou Juan went out, but she didn't leave. Instead, she returned to her workstation and caught up on the work she had missed in the past few days.

"Zhang Datong, give me back that pile of manuscripts. I'll do it myself." Her only hope now is work.

Even she herself found it unbelievable. Once upon a time, she was the person who was most afraid of work.

Zhang Datong glanced at her pale face and bloodless lips, and unexpectedly, for the first time ever, stuffed two fruit candies into her mouth: "Here, are you suffering from low blood sugar? Hold them in your mouth."

Zhou Juan smiled, said thank you, took the fruit candy, peeled off the colorful candy wrapper, and it was so sweet.

Shanmu and Chu Lingyi had a huge quarrel, which alarmed the police station. Xiao Jin and Lao He came to deal with it.

Xiao Jin felt a headache when he saw the two crazy women, so he simply took a half step behind and pushed Lao He to the front.

Lao He was too lazy to talk nonsense and just took both of them away. He detained them for ten days or half a month and they behaved well.

When they arrived at the police station, Chu's mother was already waiting there. She tearfully spoke nice words and apologized, hoping that the police would show leniency and just give her a verbal education.

Xiao Jin was annoyed and ignored it, leaving it to Lao He to deal with it.

Old He held a cigarette in his mouth and said helplessly, "Sister-in-law, I am also following the rules. If your daughter doesn't make trouble, I have no reason to detain her, right?"

Seeing that he refused to give in, Chu's mother knelt down and said, "My daughter just had a miscarriage. She bleeds a lot every day. It's very inconvenient for her in the detention center. Please, Lao He. I promise, I will keep an eye on her and never let her act recklessly again."

Lao He quickly helped the man up and said, "Alright, get up now. But let me be frank. If I let him go and he starts making trouble again, don't blame me for being rude."

"Thank you, Lao He, thank you." Chu's mother quickly got up and took the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law back home.

When Chu Lingze came home from get off work and heard about the joke his sister had made, his face turned black.

He called Shan Yong aside and scolded him, "What do you do? Can't you give him some advice?"

Shan Yong was already angry. His wife beat the child without even consulting him. It was a good thing that he didn't ask Chu Lingze for an explanation. How could she have the nerve to blame him?

Do you really think he is easy to talk to?

He immediately pushed Chu Lingze away and said, "Brother-in-law, I didn't believe my mother when she said I was stupid before, but now I do. I was quite stupid. I even went around borrowing clothes for the baby at home, worried that it would be cold when the second child was born and there wouldn't be enough clothes. But what about you? You didn't even tell us that you had beaten the child. What did you promise us in the first place? You are really bullying!"

The single mother echoed, "That's right, it's too much! I don't care, you owe me a grandson, and you owe my Ayong a child! We're not leaving! I want to see, with three generations of us here, which blind man dares to flirt with this ungrateful wolf!"

"Yes! We won't leave!" Shan Yong held the child and simply set up a folding bed in the east room. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren slept in the same room to see who could drive them away.

Chu Lingyi was so angry that she was shaking all over. She picked up a bucket of well water and wanted to pour it on Shan Mu, but Chu Lingze snatched it away and chased her out: "Are you crazy? You want to go to the detention center again? Come on, I'll take you there!"

Of course Chu Lingyi didn't want to go. She felt so wronged that she squatted in the yard and cried.

The crying made the whole family upset.

Mother Chu was extremely worried and hurried to the east room to persuade them: "My dear relatives, look at the situation. It's a lose-lose situation. How about this? You should go back and wait until Lingyi recovers before coming back. Otherwise, even if she wants to get pregnant, she won't be able to, and even if she does, she won't be able to keep the baby."

Shan's mother couldn't help but sneer: "Don't use this to put me off. I've given birth to three children, so I know better than you. I didn't force her to get pregnant now, but you want to drive us mother and son away, that's absolutely impossible. Unless you let your daughter go back with us and become the daughter-in-law of our Shan family forever!"

Mother Chu was speechless, she couldn't bear to let him go.

She only has one son and one daughter. How could she bear to see her precious daughters separated from her by thousands of miles?

She could only sigh and go out. She looked at Father Chu and whispered, "How's the work going?"

Father Chu was helpless: "The deputy director of the sugar factory has been promoted, and everyone else has moved. We are currently short of a workshop leader, and I am going to give it a try."

"But... with your length of service, you can be a workshop director. Why are you only allowed to be a team leader?" Chu's mother was anxious. The salary and benefits of the team leader and the director were far apart, and she couldn't swallow this.

Mr. Chu had no choice. He had a good job, but it was ruined by his daughter. Who could he blame?

He could only frown and say, "It's good enough to have one, but you're still so picky. If you keep wasting time, the whole family will starve to death, and our son will never get married. Are you happy?"

Chu's mother fell silent. It was true that she loved her daughter, but she also didn't want to see her son remain single.

It was late at night and the couple had no choice but to go to a friend's house to spend the next night.

Mother Chu tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Father Chu sighed silently, "If you ask me, if it really doesn't work out, let Lingyi go back to northern Shaanxi. At least it won't delay our son's marriage."
