Chapter 94 Awesome, so awesome!

"Huh?" Hao Mei never expected Grandma Tie to react like this.

"Grandma Tie, if the authorities take your daughter-in-law's behavior seriously, she'll definitely be locked up in jail."

It was she, as the political commissar, who did ideological work with everyone to help them get along harmoniously.

She worked herself to the bone to maintain harmony in the compound.

It's one thing if others don't understand her, but even Grandma Tie doesn't understand her.

Hao Mei's idealized image of a hero shattered instantly.

Grandma Cui pouted smugly. She never expected that her mother-in-law, who always disliked her, would stand up for her today.

Grandma Tie said calmly, "My daughter-in-law's behavior is just a way of reminiscing about the bitter past and appreciating the sweet present."

The phrase "remembering the bitter past and appreciating the sweet present" means to keep history in mind and never forget the suffering of the past.

Life is so much better now than before.

Sometimes, the courtyard would prepare "bitter memories meals," which were simply steamed buns made from a mixture of wild vegetables, bran, and bean dregs.

Although these foods are coarse and hard to swallow, they serve as a reminder to remember the hardships of the past and to cherish the hard-won happiness we enjoy today.

Grandma Tie's words left Hao Mei speechless once again.

She said, "Well, Grandma Tie, you're busy, I'm leaving now."

Unable to argue with her, Hao Mei decided to seek help—to form an alliance with the victims to fight against Grandma Tie.

Among the victims in the compound, Gao Xiaoman and Zhang Guoqing reacted the most strongly.

That couple—one was pregnant and no one dared to mess with her, and the other was a battalion commander, whom no one dared to offend.

If we try to find other people, we should still have a chance of success.

Hao Mei comforted herself, thinking that since she was paid this salary and made this living, she should serve the people.

You can't back down when things happen. Even if it's a hero like Grandma Iron, she'll still stand her ground.

Hao Mei had already prepared for the worst; the worst that could happen was that she would be dismissed from her post.

Old Mrs. Cui said arrogantly, "Political Commissar Hao, goodbye and don't come back."

Hao Mei was dejected. She had just taken a step when Grandma Tie suddenly changed the subject and said, "Since my daughter-in-law likes to suffer, then she can suffer all this kind of hardship from now on."

Hao Mei: "You...you mean?"

Grandma Cui: Who said she likes to suffer? She'd love to eat gold every day!

Grandma Tie: "From now on, give her rice and flour that have bugs or pebbles in them."

She patted Hao Mei on the shoulder and said, "Remember, she loves to eat, so give her plenty."

Hao Mei was stunned for a while before she realized that Grandma Tie was helping her.

"But... there are no bugs in the grain in the compound at all."

The items were sent by Shen Wanjun's uncle, and she checked them; the quality was quite good.

Grandma Tie smiled mysteriously: "If there are no conditions, we can create them."

Hao Mei was shocked again and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I'll do whatever you say."

Hao Mei felt she could leave, but since Grandma Tie hadn't spoken, she could only stay with her.

Grandma Tie took a sip of tea, and the next second she spat it out—all of it sprayed onto Grandma Cui's face.

"Are you trying to scald me to death? How could I have such a vicious daughter-in-law?"

"Today I'll clean house for my son and beat you to death, you wicked thing!"

Grandma Tie raised her cane and tapped Grandma Cui's head repeatedly.

Grandma Cui clutched her head and screamed, but dared not run or dodge, and could only let her hit her.

Grandma Cui knew better than anyone how formidable Grandma Tie was.

Her mother-in-law wanted to teach her a lesson, but she couldn't outrun an eleven-foot runner.

Instead of making a futile struggle, it's better to just accept it.

Once my mother-in-law calms down, everything will be fine.

Everything happened so fast that Hao Mei hadn't even had time to react.

Old Mrs. Cui's head had been smashed open, and blood was flowing down her forehead.

She knelt on the ground, sobbing, but dared not utter a single word in rebuttal.

Grandma Cui trembled with fear. The terror of being controlled by her mother-in-law for years made her dare not resist in the slightest.

Instinctively, it curled up into a ball, like an old cat whose tail had been stepped on.

A few broken pleas escaped his throat: "Mother...Mother, I was wrong..."

The arrogant and willful Old Lady Cui, who used to be so outspoken and defiant in front of outsiders, was now completely dejected.

He huddled dejectedly in the corner, barely daring to breathe loudly.

Those triangular eyes that were usually wide open were now lowered, and she dared not raise them. Her fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes.

—She looked exactly like a timid wife who had done something wrong and was being scolded.

Hao Mei: Awesome, so awesome!

Finally, someone can handle her!

Grandma Tie got tired of hitting her and raised her hand to Hao Mei, saying, "Political Commissar Hao, I'm sorry you had to see this."

Hao Mei shook her head; she loved watching these kinds of jokes.

If possible, she hopes to watch it every day, and even wants to invite everyone to watch it together.

"She...she's bleeding." As the political commissar, Hao Mei still feigned concern.

Grandma Tie said nonchalantly, "You won't die, don't worry. By the way, about the hardship I just told you about, I meant it."

"Don't worry, I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

Hao Mei went downstairs, excitedly wanting to practice a set of Tai Chi.

The news quickly spread throughout the compound, and that afternoon, adults took the children to search for stones all over the compound.

Some people even specifically seek out insects.

Grandma Tie said that Old Lady Cui likes to endure this kind of hardship.

Shen Wanjun and Song Zhan came to the hospital to visit Dang Xianghong. Dang Xianghong, wearing a mask, pushed the two of them outside.

"Don't come in, be careful not to get infected."

Through the glass door, she shouted, "Hurry up, you're pregnant and weak, this place is full of viruses."

Shen Wanjun said dismissively, "It's just a cold."

Dang Xianghong said, "Colds are contagious. My children are fine. I appreciate your kindness. You can go back home with peace of mind."

Huang Ya appeared wearing a mask. "Sister-in-law, you should go back."

Song Zhan asked, "What happened?"

Huang Ya is usually a very unserious person, but when he gets serious, it's bound to be something big.

Huang Ya said, "We'll talk about it when we get back tonight."

After getting off work, Huang Ya washed her hands several times and changed her clothes before going home.

Song Juan made soy milk for him to drink.

Shen Wanjun kept some of the gifts Shen Kun gave her for her family.

Huang Ya took a sip of soy milk and solemnly said to everyone, "I won't be coming back to live here for a while."

"Oh? But the house isn't finished yet," Song Juan said.

"Where do you sleep?" Shen Wanjun asked.

Song Zhan: "We haven't treated you badly."

Judging from his tone, it sounded like he had suffered some injustice.

"I've been too busy lately. Several kids in the compound have caught colds, and the virus spreads quite quickly."

"Then I should go home and get some sleep. Health is the foundation of everything."

Song Juan said, "You need to sleep well to be able to concentrate better on your work, right?"

She blinked her big eyes and asked, something Huang Ya had often said to her.

Shen Wanjun comforted him, saying, "Dr. Huang's skills are superb; what's a little cold?"

Huang Ya didn't respond; he felt this didn't seem like a common cold.

Even without medication, a common cold will heal within a week.

Some children have been hospitalized for two weeks and still show no signs of recovery.

Several classes in the school were affected, and even the teachers were not spared.

Bai Lu is one of them.
