Chapter 46: Sister-in-law (Part 2) Now the sister-in-law wants to drive her away,...

The Qi family is a big family.

The clan concept is similar to that in rural areas.

The family also produced a war hero like Qi Guozhong, so all the neighbors around liked to flatter them.

It seemed as if the medal was earned by them and the honor was also earned by them.

As for widowed women and fatherless children, what do they have to do with them?

She's just a jinx that brings bad luck to her husband, so it's better to get rid of her as soon as possible.

He's just a sickly child who could die at any moment. It would only bring bad luck if he stayed at home.

Selfish people are so ridiculous. When there is an honor, they will fight for it and wear it for themselves. As for the sacrifice behind the honor, they will blame it and put the hat of being unlucky for their husbands on the miserable woman.

However, reality dealt them a heavy blow.

The widowed woman lost her husband, but her husband's comrades-in-arms were willing to help her.

The pension will be returned smoothly.

We also asked someone to arrange accommodation for them and provide them with proper resettlement.

As for work, the organization would not treat the hero's widow unfairly and arranged her to work in the police station.

Not only is it close to home, it is also stable and respectable. Most importantly, the identity of a police officer carries a deterrent effect. Ordinary scoundrels really don't dare to bully this mother and son again.

Later, as the days passed, the sickly child did not die, even though he fell ill and took medicine every few days. It seemed as if someone was guarding him and preventing him from dying.

Later, I got married, had children, and my health improved greatly.

One thing after another caught the Qi family members by surprise and overwhelmed them.

The most bizarre thing is that the sickly man’s wife is actually Chief Yao’s biological daughter.

Unfortunately, they did so many bad things in their early years that it was useless to mend the situation. They could no longer hold on to this thigh.

After returning, they couldn't help but blame each other.

This guy said it was your idea to drive them away.

The one who said it was you who made the decision and left them no way out.

Most selfish people are like this, blaming each other and clearing themselves.

Just like now, when they learned that Tang Fengyuan had remarried, the whole family became excited again.

Sister-in-law Qi Baozhu was filled with resentment: "It's all my fault that Big Brother didn't listen. I told you long ago that I could introduce a man from the Qi family to my sister-in-law to remarry. That way, she would still be a member of our Qi family, and my nephew wouldn't be wronged by marrying his uncle. If Big Brother had listened, we would have had Commander Yao's support long ago."

Eldest sister-in-law Yu Xiulan rolled her eyes. "I don't think so. If she really remarries my younger brother-in-law, who knows what others will say. If people suspect adultery, where will our Qi family's reputation be?"

"Why, is your face so valuable?" Qi Baozhu hadn't had a good life after her marriage. Now that she's divorced and back in her parents' home, she's been bullied everywhere. She took advantage of Tang Fengyuan's remarriage to poke a wry smile at her brothers and sisters-in-law. She was very rude and sarcastic, saying, "If it were really that valuable, why wouldn't Director Zhou from the supply and marketing cooperative give you face? Instead of attacking your third sister-in-law, I think you should quickly find a way to help Changlin plug the hole in the supply and marketing cooperative."

Yu Xiulan couldn't stand people saying bad things about her son. She pointed at her sister-in-law and yelled, "No matter how bad my son is, it's not your place to tell him what to do! You're a woman who was kicked out by your husband's family, yet you're staying at your parents' house, eating and drinking for free, and you're even acting like a big shot, right? Get out of here!"

Qi Baozhu sneered, "What do you mean by staying at your mother's house? My mother's house isn't my home. Don't get me wrong. My last name is Qi, and what about you? Your last name is Yu, so you're an outsider, right?"

Yu Xiulan couldn't stand hearing such words the most. Ever since she got married, her parents' family treated her as an outsider, and her in-laws' family also treated her as an outsider.

At the beginning, she and Qi Guoping almost couldn't get along, and she wanted to go back to her parents' home to piss Qi Guoping off, but she never expected that her brother and sister-in-law wouldn't even let her in.

Unlike the men in the Qi family, no matter how bad the situation was, they would let their divorced sister come back.

But why?

Why is her parents' home not her parents' home, but Qi Baozhu's parents can pamper her and let Qi Baozhu ride on her head and shit on her?

He was so angry that he started fighting.

The aunt and sister-in-law soon became like two unevolved monkeys, screaming, "You pull my hair, I grab your chest."

He would be ruthless to the place where a woman was most insulted, and he would not let her go either, and the insults he made were extremely unpleasant.

When Qi Changlin came back, he saw the ugly scene of two crazy women competing in hair pulling and fighting.

He was too lazy to stop the fight because he was used to it.

He just walked straight past the two of them and went to the kitchen.

I opened the lid of the pot and saw that there was no rice?

He was so angry that he immediately complained: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you trying to starve me to death?"

Yu Xiulan stopped immediately. There was nothing she could do. Her son was her life. It was her fault. She was busy arguing with her sister-in-law and let her precious son starve.

Apologize quickly and cook quickly.

Qi Baozhu stood in the yard with a sneer on her face, straightening her hair and clothes.

She thought it was ridiculous that two women with no grudge against each other became mortal enemies once they were trapped in this strange marriage cycle.

A few casual sarcastic remarks can escalate into a blood feud.

It's really unreasonable.

However, although she realized that something was wrong, she could not break out of the established thinking circle and could not find the crux of the problem.

I'm just glad that my brother from my mother's side is more humane than Yu Xiulan's family, that's all.

After all the quarrels and fights, her anger subsided when the warm breeze of late spring blew.

He turned around and went back to his room to think about things.

She is a divorced woman and there is no room for her in her parents' home, so she has to squeeze in with her niece.

Fortunately, she didn't have children, so she didn't have to bring a burden home. She also had a job, so she didn't have to eat for free. After get off work, she could help her sister-in-law take care of the children and provide free labor. Otherwise, I'm afraid this family would not have room for her.

She picked up a dressing mirror and looked at the wound on her face.

Yu Xiulan, that crazy woman, scratched the skin on her right cheek. Fortunately, it wasn't on her face, so she could cover it by untying her hair.

It's a pity that she is not as pretty as the third sister-in-law. The third sister-in-law is forty-three years old and there are still men willing to stay with her. What about her? She is only thirty-seven years old and has become a dish of daylily that no one wants.

Suddenly I admire my third sister-in-law a little. How did she do it?

No, it just so happens that she has a day off today, so she will go to her third sister-in-law for advice.

It would not be appropriate to go to the door empty-handed, and since her third sister-in-law had remarried, she bought some gifts as a token of her appreciation.

She rode her bike out and went to the state-owned supermarket in the south of the city to buy a can of malted milk, two bags of brown sugar, and chose a tweed jacket that she liked very much, which was bright red and festive.

She knew that her third sister-in-law would not accept it, so she would have to wear it herself in the end.

But this way, it is much more legitimate than if she bought it directly for herself, so that her sisters-in-law won't criticize her again.

Qi Baozhu seldom comes here. The last time Chief Yao came back to recognize his relatives, she followed the crowd and remembered the locations of the eight alleys.

However, she didn't know where her third sister-in-law's new husband lived.

So I went to the courtyard and said hello to my nephew and his wife first.

However, Qi Changxiao and Yao Zhizhi were not at home.

The couple took advantage of the beautiful spring weather, one painting by the lake and the other writing a novel by the lake. They also bought a blanket, spread it on the grass, and made a fence around it with reeds.

When the child's uncle was cooking, the child was brought over and crawled around under the noses of his parents.

The range is limited to the fence to prevent the kid from rushing into the lake.

The ten-month-old fat pig was like a deep-water torpedo, crawling around on the blanket using his hands and feet, sometimes knocking the fence sideways and sometimes knocking it sideways.

Yao Zhizhi was worried, so she simply sat in and stood guard on the side closer to the lake.

The little pig changed its target. It climbed to the other end, picked a small yellow wild flower, and buried its head in its mother's arms. Then it looked around on the grass near its mother, plucked a handful of weeds, and looked anxiously at its father outside the fence, making humming sounds in its mouth, trying to attract its father's attention.

Unfortunately, my father needed to concentrate fully on painting, so I ignored him for a long time.

The silly boy got angry and burst into tears. He ran to his mother and complained: "Baba, Baba."

Yao Zhizhi was making an outline and didn't pay much attention to it. She just habitually put her left arm around the silly boy and let him rest in his arms for a while.

However, after she lowered her head and wrote only two words, she realized something.

I quickly put down my pen and paper, picked up the little fat ball, and asked in disbelief, "What are you shouting about?"

"Baba, Baba." Little Star felt aggrieved, but Baba ignored her, sobbing.

Yao Zhizhi was so happy that she kissed his little paws fiercely, then stood up and shouted, "Changxiao, your son is calling you daddy!"

Qi Changxiao didn't hear anything, he just knew his wife was calling him. He subconsciously looked back and saw his son dancing and jumping over the fence less than one meter high, trying to jump into his arms.

He quickly put down his paintbrush, came over and hugged her. When he heard the sweet and sweet baby voice in his ears, he finally understood why his wife was so happy.

His eyes lit up instantly.

He lifted the boy up high and said, "Shout it again!"

"Baba, baba!" The silly boy was still holding the dogtail grass and showing it to his father like a treasure.

Qi Changxiao was so happy that he quickly carried him to the blanket to listen to more sounds.

That’s great! This silly boy could call mom last month, and he also learned to call uncle three days ago. Unfortunately, his pronunciation was not standard, and he called him Diudiu.

Now, it is finally his turn as a father to be happy.

After kissing his son, he couldn't help but kiss his wife.

Thank you, my wife, for giving birth to such a well-behaved and lovely son. He is recovering from his illness faster.

If you are happy every day in your life and in a good mood, you will naturally be less sick.

I was so happy that I couldn't help but kiss the mother and son again and again.

When Qi Baozhu came over, what she saw was such a loving and happy picture of the world.

My eyes are bleeding with envy.

Third sister-in-law is so lucky. Her son found such a wife with a prominent background, and she is also being pursued by a loving man three years younger than her.

I have grandchildren and my career is stable. Although I may not get promoted, at least I have dignity and respect.

That’s great.

It was so good that it made her jealous and unbalanced, and she couldn't help but break this harmonious tranquility.

He shouted, "Chang Xiao, I heard your mother is getting married, I came to give her a gift."

Qi Changxiao was feeling happy, but when he suddenly heard this disgusting voice, the smile on his face froze instantly.

After standing up and taking a look, he rudely ordered them to leave: "No need, take your things."

Qi Baozhu smiled and said, "Changxiao, you shouldn't be so angry all the time. It's not good for your health. I'm happy for your mother too. She's already old, and maybe she can give you a brother or sister. How wonderful."

Why does this sound so harsh?

Yao Zhizhi also stood up and frowned at the young lady with ill intentions.

Wow, it’s so lively. As soon as this woman came, a lot of alarms in Guayuan lit up.

Yao Zhizhi tugged at Qi Changxiao's arm and whispered, "What color are her two stripes?"

"They are all negative values." Qi Changxiao's answer was irrelevant to the question, but Yao Zhizhi understood.

That is to say, this woman is indeed not a good person and is about to have bad luck recently.

Yao Zhizhi was too lazy to get involved with this kind of person, so she just casually watched the keywords of the melon-eating show and was shocked.

Look, what are they——

To fill in the gaps, to use public power for personal gain, to sneak into Chencang, to steal chickens and dogs...

A lot.

Yao Zhizhi was amused. This girl seemed to be an elementary school teacher, so she was just a scoundrel who was filling in the gap?

Abuse of public power for personal gain, oh, it might mean that she has some shameful dealings with students or their parents.

As for sneaking into Chencang and stealing chickens and dogs, one can refer to an abnormal relationship between a man and a woman, or doing something bad secretly, while the other refers to a specific and detailed act of theft.

Stealing something from school?

What is there to steal in school these days?

Yao Zhizhi thought about it and it seemed that there were some, such as chalk, which she could steal and take home to write and draw for her children.

For example, you can take your exercise books home to save some money.

In addition, students these days generally spend half a day in class and half a day working, so there must be some tools for productive labor in the school.

Wow, if you steal it and sell it to others, you can really make a lot of money.

It is simply a profit without any investment, and the only one who suffers is the country.

Yao Zhizhi suddenly felt a little nauseous.

How can such a person have the nerve to brag everywhere that he has a martyr brother? He is so shameless.

Yao Zhizhi sneered and said, "It's none of your business whether my wife is angry or not, right? As for whether my mother-in-law will have another child, it has nothing to do with you either. If you have time to meddle in other people's business, why don't you return the stolen things to the school first? Otherwise, if the higher-ups investigate one day, you might end up in jail."

Qi Baozhu was startled and screamed guiltily, "Don't spit on me. When did I ever steal anything from school?"

Yao Zhizhi smiled and said, "You know whether there was any theft or not. There's no point in yelling at me. After all, the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it. If I were you, I would definitely return the things before the higher-ups noticed."

Qi Baozhu was speechless and turned away angrily. She returned to the courtyard, picked up the gifts she had brought, got on her bicycle cursing, and left without looking back.

Yao Zhizhi stood by the lake, watching the woman's furious expression. Feeling that this wasn't enough, she turned around and asked, "Should we just report her? Send her in, lest she harbor any evil intentions and seek revenge against us."

"Don't show up. I'll find someone to verify it this afternoon." Qi Changxiao still wanted to be safe. After all, her melon source alert only gave keywords, and there might be deviations in reality.

Besides, we have to investigate exactly what was stolen, otherwise how can we call the police?

Yao Zhizhi had no objection. Just as someone in the courtyard called for dinner, she helped put away the drawing board and paints and came back in the afternoon.

Leaving things outside is always unsafe.

*

Qi Baozhu was so angry that she rode her bike in anger, like a gust of wind, and soon reached the north of the city.

Unexpectedly, he saw the sneaky Qi Changlin, so he quickly slowed down and followed him.

What was this guy up to? Perhaps his gambling hole was too big, so he wanted to steal from someone else's yard?

No, she had to remind him that if a fight broke out, the dignity of the entire Qi family would be destroyed.

Just as I was about to shout, I saw him crossing the residential area and rushing to the gate of the closed old high school. He was holding a wrench in his hand and was cutting off the iron chain on the iron gate.

Just cut it and run away without any delay.

Qi Baozhu wanted to follow, but it was too late. A wobbly city bus blocked her view. When the bus drove away, the person was gone.

I had to go home and complain.

Yu Xiulan is a housewife. When she was young, she took care of her children at home. When she was old, she took care of her grandchildren at home.

I'm busy preparing dinner right now.

Seeing Qi Baozhu coming back angrily, she didn't give her a good look. She rolled her eyes, called her a scoundrel, and continued to do her own thing.

Qi Baozhu went back to her room first and put away the gifts she bought to prevent them from being taken away by her brother and sister-in-law's children.

After coming out, she took a comb and combed her wind-torn hair while saying sarcastically, "Sister-in-law, you really have so much free time. Your uncle Changlin just cut the big iron chain at the entrance of the old high school. I don't know what he's doing there, and you don't care about it."

"Come on, are you a good person? How many hoes have you taken from the school? You only buy hoes once a month. Why do other schools not lose things, but your elementary school keeps losing things? Do you really think I don't know?" Yu Xiulan sneered. "I didn't say anything because I was afraid that it would spread and ruin the reputation of the Qi family. You have to know your own business. Stop it now before anyone finds out."

Qi Baozhu was no pushover either, and sarcastically said, "Sister-in-law, you're so funny! When I gave you the sweater, didn't you accept it so neatly? So now you think my money is dirty? Then take off the sweater and don't wear it."

"Well, why didn't you tell me earlier? Who cares about that torn sweater? I'll give it to you. But don't dirty my hands!" Yu Xiulan could never stand provocation. She immediately dropped the radish in her hand and went into the house to change clothes.

After changing, he came out and threw the worn sweater directly on Qi Baozhu's face.

Qi Baozhu sneered, and in front of her, she took it apart and started to wind the ball of yarn: "Yu Xiulan, don't pretend. I know you got a new sweater. Your eldest daughter-in-law gave it to you, right? Tell me the truth, she asked me for the money to buy you a sweater. If you have the guts, take off the one you're wearing. If you don't, you're just being hypocritical and greedy. You have no shame!"

Yu Xiulan was anxious. When her daughter-in-law gave the money, she didn't say it was from Qi Baozhu. She immediately confronted her, "You said it was from you? I said I was a big boss. Hurry up and get out of the Qi family and don't embarrass yourself here!"

"What a joke! You also know that this is the Qi family. What's my last name? Qi! What about you? Your last name is Yu. If anyone wants to leave, you should leave! Before you leave, remember to calculate clearly what you have eaten and used from me over the years, and give it back to me!" Qi Baozhu was annoyed. She put the unopened sweater and the unwound ball of yarn into the basket next to her, took a few steps forward, and started to take off Yu Xiulan's clothes.

Yu Xiulan became anxious, picked up the fire tongs on the wall and poked Qi Baozhu.

The ends of tongs are generally not very sharp, and it is late spring now, and I am wearing a sweater jacket, so if I use it gently, I won't get hurt.

But this kind of thing is very insulting.

Qi Baozhu was so angry that she picked up the mallet she was using to beat clothes and attacked.

It makes her angry just thinking about it. After so many years since her divorce, she has spent money and energy, but all she has received is grievance and humiliation.

There are so many children in each family who eat and use her things. Now that her sister-in-law wants to drive her away, there is no way!

The two women were so angry that they were waving tongs and mallets. You hit me and I'll hit you with the mallet.

They go back and forth like two baboons that have given up on evolving.

Soon several other families were alarmed.

But the wives were all cooking at the moment, so the men and children in the family had to go and persuade them.

Don’t you think about it, will a group of rough guys stop a fight?

Not to mention, the younger generation has no say in this family. Before they even open their mouths, they are rebuked by the elders by saying, "Children, don't meddle in adult matters."

After a long argument, no one was able to persuade the aunt and sister-in-law.

When the other families finished cooking, they came over to take a look and saw, wow, the scene was truly horrific.

Yu Xiulan was beaten black and blue, and Qi Baozhu was not much better off. All the threads on her sweater were torn, the back of her hands were covered in blood, and her pants were punctured.

When the warm wind of late spring blows, the skin inside feels burning with pain.

After all, fire tongs are made of iron. If you use enough force, they can pierce through cloth and cause substantial damage.

She was forced into a corner, so she hit Yu Xiulan's head with a hammer.

Both the aunt and the sister-in-law were injured, but unexpectedly, one of the nieces was frightened and secretly ran out to call the police.

The police arrived just at this moment, and without waiting for the women in the family to mediate, the aunt and sister-in-law were taken away together by the police.

Ordinary family disputes would not be escalated to this extent. The little girl who called the police cried and shouted that her aunt was going to kill her aunt, so the police had to follow the procedure.

What's more, the tragic scene between the aunt and the sister-in-law seemed to make them really want to kill each other.

As soon as the two women were brought to the door, a crowd gathered around them.

Qi Guoping happened to come back from work and quickly stopped them.

Although he has not yet understood the specific situation, he knows that the person cannot be taken away. If the matter gets out of hand, the entire Qi family will lose face.

I could only say something nice: "Comrade, this is a family conflict, there's no need to be so serious, just persuade and educate him."

Others echoed.

"Yeah, just a little family dispute, nothing serious comrade."

Police officer Lao Zhang said sternly: "No, your child said that her aunt wanted to kill her aunt. We are also following the rules. Please let her go."

Before Qi Guoping could say something, Lao Zhang called his colleagues and forcibly took him away.

The whole family was dumbfounded. After thinking it over, they could only go to Tang Fengyuan to plead for mercy. After all, she was also a police officer, and colleagues would usually give her some face.

Qi Guoping's face turned pale. He didn't even bother to eat and hurried to get help.

Tang Fengyuan was accompanying his grandson in the courtyard, while Ning Zhengrong was telling him stories next to him. The old couple loved each other very much and lived a peaceful life.

As for the young couple, they went to the lake to watch the stars.

Yao Weihua was the only one busy in the yard, making toys for his eldest nephew.

Jigsaw, hammer, axe, screwdriver...

Everything you need.

The sound of clanging and banging was as if Lu Ban was reborn.

How could Tang Fengyuan waste such a happy time on that group of people in the north of the city?

When he saw Qi Guoping coming, he ignored him and continued to play with his grandson, pretending that he was deaf.

Qi Guoping became anxious and said a lot of nice things, but Tang Fengyuan refused to say anything and he could do nothing about it.

In the end, I had no choice but to go to the lake to find my nephew and niece-in-law.

My niece's wife's father is Commander Yao. Old Zhang should give her some face, right?

Before he could even open his mouth, his eldest son Qi Changpei rushed over and cried, "Oh no, Dad, Changlin was bitten by a mad dog and is unconscious. Go check on him!"
