Chapter 292: Bullying the Fewer with the Many

That’s right, Yin Gan called all the relatives of his group of brothers.

Isn’t it just a competition of numbers?

Yin Gan works under An Zhenbang in charge of the battlefield management. Every day he comes into contact with the strongest laborers. Of course, it is not okay for these people to show up, as fighting can easily land him in jail.

But most of these strong laborers are family members, and all the aunts and uncles will come together as a group.

I heard that the eldest brother is worried because his mother-in-law is blocked at the door and scolded by two old women. How can this be tolerated?

No matter whether they are married or not, or whether she is a real mother-in-law or not, at least Yin Gan and Xiang Lili have a good relationship and it is impossible for it to break up halfway.

These people simply arranged a shift, and each person called his relatives and friends to go to the doorstep to support the event one day.

These people are basically retired and have nothing to do at home, so they usually do odd jobs.

They are bored at home taking care of their children, so they think it's fun to go to their parents' house and scold them, just to kill time.

Zhang Jidi did not treat people badly. As long as they came to help, he would provide them with plenty of melon seeds, candies, meals, and a continuous supply of water. This was much more generous than what he did to Xiang Yaoyao.

Some people even curse once and never forget it, and take the initiative to sign up for the next person's family and friends group...

Whoever wins the scolding by his relatives and friends among this group of brothers will be proud. They don’t ask Yin Gan to look at them with favor, but just hope that they will remember to call their brothers when they have work to do.

Xiang Lidang also called on people from the coal factory to help, but there were not so many people.

After all, Yin Gan manages a lot of odd jobs, and these people are very motivated to work, but the people in the coal factory have to go to work and have no time.

If Xiang Mianmian had come a day earlier, she would have seen the spectacular scene of the two sides quarreling with each other.

Xiang Yaoyao was also affected in the past few days. She was called a mistress, had an affair, should be drowned, was a whore and so on. She was so angry that she fell ill again.

These are all nice things to hear. How poisonous are the aunties' mouths? If they really start to curse, the whole process cannot be broadcast, it's all beep, beep, beep - muted.

In addition, the Xiang family has a large number of people and powerful forces, so no one is willing to argue no matter how high the price is.

Zhang Jidi was tired of arguing these days, so he simply took a day off at home. Unexpectedly, Xiang Mianmian came home at that time, and the mother and daughter got together on a weekday.

When Xiang Mianmian heard this, she looked at Zhang Jidi's face hesitantly: "Mom, Old Lady Xiang is sick, what did Dad say?"

When his uncle Xiang Hongwen passed away, Xiang Hongqi returned home to attend the funeral.

She was so soft-hearted that she brought back Xiang Yaoyao, the troublemaker, for fear that he also had a yearning for his own mother, causing discord between the couple.

While Zhang Ji was cooking for her, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, your father won't even give you money this time."

This was really beyond Zhang Jidi's expectations.

When the family was divided, Mrs. Xiang insisted on taking 20 yuan in alimony, and no one could persuade her.

After much consideration, Xiang Hongqi finally gave it to him.

Zhang Jidi knew that this man always had a soft spot for his own mother, and he tolerated the old lady's various weird behaviors time and time again.

Now that no money is given, we can only wait for people to die and look at the tombstone. How can Zhang Jidi not be happy?

Xiang Mianmian exclaimed, his face full of question marks.

Zhang Jidi explained to her, "Your father is willing to pay for the support of Old Lady Xiang, which means he still has feelings for your mother. What else could be the reason for not paying?"

Xiang Mianmian suddenly realized: "Because I have no feelings for Old Lady Xiang anymore!"

As the saying goes, where there is love, there is money.

This sentence applies anywhere. Xiang Hongqi is willing to give so much money, which shows that he is always grateful to his mother for raising him.

However, the twenty years of daily care and support had exhausted Xiang Hongqi's last bit of kindness.

During the three years of famine, when people were starving, not a single person from home sent a message to inquire about the situation. Anyone would be heartbroken.

Well, twenty years of support is enough to repay twenty years of raising me. That’s fair.

Zhang Jidi nodded with satisfaction: "When I was young, I also hated your father for being so stupid. He had to send money to Old Lady Xiang even though we had to eat coarse food. But now, I don't hate him anymore."

She looked out the window, brushing aside the pain she had felt.

When my family first arrived in the county town, we were in great financial difficulty. We had to rent a house, provide food, clothing and other necessities for our five children, and pay 20 yuan in support.

Things didn't get better until the day before Xiang Mianmian was born, when the factory allocated housing to them.

When she grew up a little, the five children, from Xiang Liguo to Xiang Lili, all had incredibly successful jobs, and the family became well-off.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jidi glanced at his little daughter, his eyes full of nostalgia for the past.

Xiang Mianmian, who was unaware of the situation, felt confused by her mother's gaze, so she decided to lower her head and read a book.

After all, there is a main quest waiting for her. Although she is a little confused about the quest reward, Xiang Mianmian still wants to give it a try.

Who would miss the opportunity for the motherland to take off?

The mother and daughter had a simple meal of egg noodles, and only had a proper meal in the evening when everyone in the family got home from get off work.

Four people made four dishes and one soup, all of which were meat dishes.

Zhang Ji was the first to pick up food for Xiang Mianmian, as enthusiastically as if she was on a business trip for twenty years instead of twenty days.

Xiang Mianmian, who was being fed, had no time to eat and could only shout to her mother to eat slower.

Finally, there was really no other way, so the first time Zhang Ji reached out to pick up some food, she quickly took the bowl away, which reduced her mother's desire to feed him.

It is a rare sight to be able to allow Xiang Mianmian to avoid being fed.

This little fat boy always eats up all the food when he eats. He is not polite at all and is not picky about food. He is the type of child that the chef loves most.

Xiang Lili watched with great interest.
