Lin Laosan was heartbroken. His lovely daughter had found a boyfriend, and this boyfriend even had some connection to him.
He didn't want his daughter involved in these things.
But we can't break them up...
He noticed that his daughter, Xiaoyu, seemed to really like that kid…
He channeled his grief and anger into his appetite, and devoured all the porridge and eggs his mother had made in one go.
"Are you a reincarnated starving ghost? In just a short while, you ate your second brother's portion?"
Lin Lao Er, who was just about to come over for breakfast, saw that the plates on the table were indeed empty.
"I can let the porridge go, but you ate two eggs instead of the usual one for each person!"
Grandma Lin was so angry that she kept twisting his ears.
"Oh dear, Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong, I wasn't paying attention."
Lin Lao Er was not good with words, but he had always given way to his younger brother since childhood, so he said, "Mom, I'll just eat a little bit, and you can give the eggs to Lao San."
"Mom, did you hear that? My second brother isn't holding it against me, hehe."
Lin Laosan broke free from his mother and ran outside, giving his second brother a hug as he passed by: "Thanks, second brother."
Lin Lao Er scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
"Mom, I'll just have a steamed bun." He went to the kitchen, grabbed a steamed bun, and went out to work in the fields.
Grandma Lin shook her head. The second son was really honest. She wondered if he had given birth to the third son with all his cunning.
...
"Breaking news! Have you heard?"
"What what?"
Song Meili went to the workroom and came back in a hurry.
Everyone in the office, look over here.
Lin Yu also asked her anxiously, "What big news?"
"Isn't there an old lady named Guo over there in the dried fruit area? Her family is from Dongshan Brigade. Yesterday she went back to visit relatives and said that their brigade leader's youngest son was kicked out of his home!"
Ou Manqing: "Is it Comrade Chen Songbai from that day?"
"Is it Qi Mei?" Lin Yu remembered, it had been a while since that day.
Song Meili nodded: "And this matter is also related to Qi Mei."
...
Since returning home that day, Qi Mei has become much tougher. First, she drove her sister-in-law away, threatening that if she came back to sow discord, she would cause trouble at her husband's family home.
Then she argued with her mother-in-law.
The old woman's insults were so offensive that they attracted gossip from the villagers, so she held a knife to her own neck.
If anyone tries to force her again, she will die in front of them and become a ghost that haunts them day and night.
The villagers were all quite superstitious, and everyone knew she was a woman with a tragic fate, so no one dared to say anything more about her.
Seeing how formidable she was, her mother-in-law dared not bully her anymore.
However, he still declared that she was a member of their family in life and in death, and that he would never allow her to remarry.
Qi Mei never thought about remarrying. She realized that as long as she stood up for herself, no one could bully her.
She doesn't need to rely on anyone at all!
But the old woman was too awful, and she was unwilling to serve her anymore.
Therefore, she only does what she is supposed to do every day. If the old woman doesn't like the food, then she throws it away and doesn't eat it.
She only washes her own clothes.
She calculated everything very clearly, even the food she earned in exchange for work points was for each person to eat separately.
Don't even think about taking advantage of her, old woman.
The villagers might have initially sympathized with the old man, thinking that his daughter-in-law was unfilial.
Qi Mei said, "If any of you feel sorry for her, take her back and raise her. You can also have her food rations."
Who would agree to that?
The old woman is lazy; she refuses to farm.
The brigade took pity on her because she had lost her son, so they gave her the job of feeding the pigs, but she almost let the pigs starve to death!
Anyone who gets involved with her is bound to have bad luck.
Everyone was afraid that Qi Mei would quit and push the old woman onto them, so no one dared to say anything.
So Qi Mei finally began to live an easy life.
She doesn't care what others think of her; even though she had previously compromised, no one had a kind word to say about her.
Instead, people say she's a vixen and a jinx to her husband.
Now things are much better. Everyone in the village is afraid she'll go crazy and start attacking people with a knife, so no one dares to gossip about her anymore.
The old woman wanted to control her, but she had no weaknesses. At worst, she would just die. What was she afraid of?
To be fair, the old woman was sensible enough to know that her daughter-in-law was not someone to be trifled with, so she didn't dare to bully her anymore.
She was even less afraid of her husband's older sister; that woman was only a bully at home and had no status in her husband's family.
She was constantly worried that her husband would take a liking to Qi Mei.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have insisted on marrying Qi Mei off.
Qi Mei felt like throwing up when she found out what her husband was thinking. He was old and ugly, and Qi Mei must be crazy to be with someone like that.
But once you know what your sister-in-law is afraid of, things become much easier.
Qi Mei told her that if she came back to sow discord again, she would go to her in-laws' house for a few days and cause a huge uproar.
The eldest sister-in-law was really frightened, and from that day on, she didn't dare to come back to see her mother again.
The poor old woman thought her daughter was so good to her, but in reality, she was just using her to deal with Qi Mei.
With Qi Mei serving her here, she can act arrogantly and domineeringly when she comes back.
Now that Qi Mei doesn't serve anymore, when she comes back, the old woman still expects her to do the laundry and cook for her. That's why the sister-in-law isn't coming back.
"Tell me, does your daughter really care about you? I heard you used to dote on her a lot, but look at her now, is she filial to you? She's not even as good as my daughter-in-law."
The old woman was left speechless after being scolded by her.
Thinking back to her past, because her son was in poor health, she doted on her daughter so that she would have someone to rely on in the future.
As a result, the pain caused a heartless person to suffer.
