She had never seen anything like this in most of her life, and the methods the brigade used to deal with her were completely ineffective.

If it were her eldest daughter-in-law, she could just go hungry for a few meals; her eldest son would only protect her.

If the second son's family dares to let her go hungry, she will cause unrest in the whole family, and no one will be able to eat.

She can't compete with me in terms of family background, she can't compete with me in terms of insults, and she can't compete with me in terms of shamelessness. I really can't live like this anymore.

If I had known it would turn out this way, I would have begged her, but she wouldn't have married me. If all else failed, I could have given the marriage to my youngest son.

With such a capable wife, a good family background, and sons, the youngest son can live a carefree life without having to worry about anything.

Judging from how protective she was of her second son, no matter how strong she was, she was still a man who loved his wife. She regretted it.

Ignoring her distorted face, Suti pulled Wei Baichuan to the brigade headquarters.

When Wei Changgen in the brigade headquarters saw Su Ti's figure, he shuddered. It wasn't enough for him to show off at home, so he had come all the way here.

If she reveals what happened at home, he'll lose all face.

"Old Party Secretary, I'd like to borrow your bicycle to go to the commune to buy some things," Wei Baichuan said to the old Party Secretary sitting there, without even looking at his father.

"Borrowing a bicycle? Okay, be careful not to break it." The old Party Secretary was taken aback. Why didn't he tell his father, the brigade leader, about this?

The brigade leader is in charge of all matters in the brigade, although there are a few squad leaders and branch secretaries in their brigade headquarters.

But he was the brigade leader's son. In the past, the entire Wei family would ride him around without saying a word.

"Okay." Wei Baichuan took the keys and went to get the car.

The bicycle was a second-hand item bought by the brigade through frugal living; it was a treasure of the brigade.

They wiped it several times a day. Except when the brigade leader went to a meeting in the commune, anyone who needed it could borrow it.

However, not many people in the brigade could ride a bicycle, and everyone was afraid of damaging this precious thing. The bicycle had almost become Wei Baidao's personal property.

Wei Changgen watched as the two of them ignored him and rode away on their bicycles, and saw the puzzled looks from the other people in the brigade headquarters.

He was so angry that his chest ached. Everyone says that you should marry a virtuous wife, but look at the second son's wife, she's practically out of control.

"You were really great just now." Su Ti sat in the back seat, thinking about how angry his father-in-law, the brigade leader, was. It felt so satisfying.

“He made you angry.” Wei Baichuan knew that even if nothing had happened, his father would still scold him if he spoke to him properly.

Why is he the captain and has to set an example? Everyone wants to borrow from him, but who should we lend to?

He could use him to promote his good reputation, but he couldn't bear to part with the rest of his family.

Since his wife had been wronged this time, he no longer wanted to save face for him.

"How about we buy a bicycle?" Suti thought for a moment. Her family had sent her a bicycle ticket, and she had about seven hundred yuan in total.

These three years should be enough to live on. Once these three years are over, there will be more opportunities to make money.

"Let's talk about it after we separate the family." Wei Baichuan was thinking that his wife wanted a bicycle, and he needed to find a way to earn money for it.

Furthermore, they haven't separated yet. If they buy now, there will be trouble when they separate, and they might not be able to take anything with them.

He didn't want his wife to risk her life to fight them for a chance to survive; she had only been married into his family for a few days.

He felt terrible after suffering so much injustice. Since his parents didn't care about him at all, he wouldn't care about them anymore either.

Aside from providing for my retirement, let's just be strangers from now on.

"Okay." Suti leaned against him, feeling exceptionally at ease.

When the two arrived at the commune, they went straight to the post office.

Now, phone calls, telegrams, and letters are all made through the post office.

However, telephones are generally not used by anyone. They are not only very expensive, but even if you can dial from one side, you may not be able to receive the call from the other side.

Suti thought for a moment. Her grandparents were all very busy people, and even if she called them, they might not be able to answer.

I decided to call my mom instead. She's usually in the office unless she has to take time off.

"Dududu," Suti was a little nervous. She didn't know what to say to her mother, after all, they had been separated for a lifetime.

Also, because her family had been manipulated their whole lives, she owed them far too much.

"Serving the people, this is the Shanghai Textile Department." The familiar voice rang out, and Su Ti opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

"Is it Nannan?" Perhaps it was the bond between mother and daughter, but Guo Xuqing's voice was filled with excitement.

"It's me, Mom. Are you all alright?" Suti's voice was hoarse.

"You little ingrate, you finally called your mother! Do you know how worried your family was?"

"Everything's fine at home. How are you doing over there? Why did you suddenly decide to call? Did something happen?"

"Don't be afraid. No matter what happens, tell your mom. Mom is here for you."

Once Guo Xuqing confirmed that the person opposite him was his daughter, he had a lot to say.

She had been working in the countryside for a year, and apart from writing letters home, she hadn't received a single phone call from her daughter. She knew her daughter was a simple and honest person.

I was afraid she would be mistreated in the countryside, so every time she wrote back, it was just a few words.

Until a little over a month ago, he suddenly wrote back saying he was getting married and wanted a dowry, without saying anything else.

Her family was extremely worried. They didn't know anything about the man's family and were even more concerned about their daughter living with them.

Her husband said that since they were married, they should live well together, and no matter what, his family could afford to support them.

But I tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, sighing and groaning.

A lot of people are watching their position, hoping they'll do something wrong so they can bring them down.

Many times she wanted to disregard everything and bring her daughter back, even if it meant giving up her job.

But she knew she couldn't. She needed to set an example, because her family's current life was a gift from the country.

It was killed by her parents and piled up with the blood of her brothers.

They must abide by the country's policies; if they don't, others will be even more dissatisfied.

She just couldn't bear to leave her daughter and wished she could take her place in the countryside to suffer, but she had no choice but to send more money and things to her so that she wouldn't suffer any hardship.

"Mom, I'm fine. I just had a falling out with Su Nianyou. She took all the things I had brought to the countryside, and I'm starving every day."

"I only realized it when she changed our dowry during our wedding. She also secretly signed me up for the rural assignment."

“She also took more than 400 yuan from me. I got back a few dozen yuan, but she still owes me 330 yuan. She said she sent it to her aunt.”

"Through these experiences, I've come to my senses. I was so foolish before. I will take better care of myself from now on, so don't worry."

"Also, I got married. My partner is very good to me. I brought him along this time. We'll go back to see you during the Chinese New Year."

Suti explained her situation in a few words, knowing what they were worried about. Nothing could reassure them more than the fact that she was doing well.

She also told all about Su Nianyou, regardless of whether it was true or not, so that Su Nianyou would have no way out in the future.
