Chapter 188 The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law needs to be resolved
"Oh, Xiaomei, you're back?" Wang Lan's voice suddenly changed, and she looked at the villagers around her with trepidation in her heart.
Before she could finish her thoughts, the door of the cab opened and Ma Qijun looked at Wang Lan with a gloomy face.
"Qi...Qijun? You're back, when did you come back?" Wang Lan pulled the corners of her mouth, thinking about a lot of things, and suddenly came back to her senses and smiled happily:
"Come home quickly, you are finally back."
Then she pulled her son into the house and said, "You haven't eaten yet, wait a minute, I'll make it for you."
Aunt Wu, who was chatting at the door, swarmed over.
——Xiao Mei, I heard that you have done very well in school in the city and were even reported in the newspaper.
——Of course, if my youngest son was half as successful as you, I would sell everything I had to send him to school. Unfortunately, he is not as ambitious as you.
Ye Xiaomei heard the discussion just now clearly. His expression changed very quickly, but Ye Xiaomei also understood.
These people would like to push the wall down and have everyone push it down. They will smile to those who are doing well, but will say mean things behind their backs. They can't stand others doing well and love to laugh at others.
"Auntie, I feel a little embarrassed about what you said. Have you eaten dinner? If not, why don't you come to my house and eat something?"
Ye Xiaomei greeted them politely, saying that there was no need to be intimate with these people.
Aunt Wu quickly pushed Ye Xiaomei and said, "You, the little top scholar, have to study hard with a big belly. You should go eat quickly. We have already eaten."
"Okay, I'll go eat first." Ye Xiaomei was not hungry at all.
She was late for lunch at the Military General Hospital until after 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and she ate too much. Now she is burping and her food smells like meat.
"Qijun, you haven't forgotten what I told you on the phone, right? I didn't realize Xiaomei was so disobedient before she was pregnant. Now she doesn't listen to a single word I say as a mother. Just tell me what you think."
"What are you considering?" Ma Qijun added firewood to the fire and said coldly, "You were not like this before."
"Have you forgotten what I asked you to consider? You want to piss me off to death."
Ye Xiaomei heard it clearly: "Mom, you asked Brother Ma to consider divorcing me. To be honest, Mom, I have never seen a mother-in-law like you who actually hopes your son will get divorced."
Ma Qijun raised his eyebrows and asked himself, he didn't take it seriously at the time and had forgotten it completely. After being reminded by his wife, Ma Qijun stood up:
"Mom, don't worry about the divorce. It's impossible."
Ye Xiaomei's heart trembled. The man's angular face was full of determination. She knew that this man would never leave her.
"Am I worrying about nothing?" Wang Lan was holding a spatula. The bottom of the pot was already smoking, but she didn't care. She looked at her always filial son with disbelief in her eyes:
"I was so mad at you, my good daughter-in-law. Wasn't I also worried about her health at the beginning? Well, you two are mad at me together, right?"
Ye Xiaomei saw through Wang Lan's thoughts at a glance, and she said slowly:
"Mom, you're not worried about me. At first you were just concerned about the two grandchildren in my belly. Later, when I told you it was a girl, you started asking us to divorce. To put it bluntly, you just felt that your daughter-in-law didn't listen to you in the village, and you couldn't hold your head up. In the final analysis, you just wanted to maintain your worthless face."
Although the voice was not loud, Ma Qijun also found that the woman was right. There was one thing about his mother that had not changed from beginning to end, and that was her strength and her love of face.
"You..." Wang Lan was so angry that her face turned red and she threw the spatula in her hand and turned away:
"If you want to eat, go make it yourself. I won't serve you anymore."
With a bang, Ye Xiaomei discovered that she had knocked a hole in the bottom of the pot, and the flames underneath were coming out.
Ye Xiaomei let out a sigh of relief. She had been feeling very frustrated during this period. If she hadn't shifted her attention to studying and selling dumplings, she would have returned and had a good talk with Wang Lan a long time ago.
Now that she had said it all in one breath, she felt much more relieved, but... Ye Xiaomei looked at the man. Would he think that she was a shrew? After all, Wang Lan was his biological mother.
"Xiao Mei." Ma Qijun put his hands on her shoulders and looked at her: "If you really don't want to live with our mother, then build a wall around the yard."
Anyway, the old house is opposite the new house, with a spacious yard in between. Even if a wall is built, the yards on both sides will not appear small.
"Aren't you angry that I spoke to our mother like that?" Ye Xiaomei was touched. She didn't dare to breathe or speak loudly in the past because there was no one to protect her.
"You are right. Why are you so angry?"
As soon as Ma Qijun said this, Wang Lan rushed back with great momentum.
It would be more accurate to say that she did not go far at all, but was just listening outside. Now, the couple have teamed up to split up the family business:
"You said it yourself. Don't let me take care of you during the confinement period after giving birth." It just so happened that she was too lazy to take care of him. If she gave birth to a pair of girls, she wouldn't know how many people would laugh at her. Could she really pretend to be happy and go to the funeral?
"You don't have to serve me anymore. You can just enjoy your retirement and go wherever you want." Ma Qijun said calmly.
"I really want some quiet time." Wang Lan said, put her hands on her hips and turned away.
"Mom, wait a minute." Ma Qijun suddenly remembered something important.
"What's the matter? I won't be involved in your mess anymore, so as to avoid causing trouble."
"If I remember correctly, all of Dad's salary goes to you. You have to return my passbook to me. Xiaomei needs to go to school and buy a meal card."
Ye Xiaomei was secretly happy, and her heart felt warm as if the sun had risen. In her eyes, couples in the mountains were always men who were superior to women, and beating their wives was a skill that men could show off to the whole village.
She really didn't expect that Ma Qijun would protect her so well.
"What?" Wang Lan's eyes widened. She couldn't believe that the son she raised would say such a thing. She glanced at Ye Xiaomei. Needless to say, she was the one who instigated this.
"Okay, really, you're planning to break up with me, your mother, right?"
Ye Xiaomei's heart sank. Was this a big deal? She looked at the man worriedly.
"Mom, please don't be unreasonable. I didn't say that. I married my wife to support her. I can't bring her home just to have children."
Ma Qijun frowned. This was obviously a bit ridiculous and too fussy.
"Yes, you are right no matter what you say. Okay, I will return the passbook to you, but those people from the Ye family are absolutely not allowed to live on my Ma family's land."
Who is afraid of whom? If the relationship breaks out, who knows who will suffer the loss? I wonder where you'll put your whole family.
Ye Xiaomei's pupils shrank. Wang Lan's vengeful character was just as the villagers said. When she was young, no one dared to offend her.
What should she do? She had to think of a solution.
