Chapter 246 Bad Intentions
At around ten o'clock, Father Liu came with a crutch and a shoulder pole, with bedding on one end and a broken pottery basin filled with burning charcoal on the other. Mother Liu followed beside him, carrying some rice and flour in her hands, and they went from the old house to the new house.
Behind them came Uncle Liangzi, Fu Yancheng, Qiu Shaofeng and the men in the village who had helped build the house before. They loaded the other belongings onto a wheelbarrow and pulled them to the new house.
From then on, the house on the other side of the old house was returned to the Liu family, and the two families had no connection with each other from then on.
When they were moving out, Mrs. Liu was about to make a fuss, but Fu Yancheng was standing there in his neat military uniform, and Uncle Liangzi was also there to calm the situation. Old Man Liu was afraid that the fact that Liu Shanliang was not his biological son would be exposed, so he held them back.
Ge Xiulan looked at Liu's mother, who was smiling like a flower, with indignation on her face: "Bah, no matter how well you build a house, if you don't have a son to inherit it, it will still be the first one to die out. What's the point of being so proud?"
In fact, she was very envious and wished that the house was hers.
Su Hongjuan from the third room felt unhappy as she watched the group of people walking away. Before, in this family, the second room was the lowest class, but she didn't expect that they would be the first to leave.
She had a worried look on her face. Yesterday, her eldest daughter Xiaoman came back from her younger sister's place. Not only did the blind date fail, but the boy's sister got the news from somewhere and found out what happened in the Liu family. She even told it in front of her younger sister, making the scene very awkward.
The girl came back crying her heart out. If her husband hadn't held her back, she would have run to the main room and fought with them.
But look at the second branch, they are not affected at all. The girl Chuxue's partner is not only from the city, but also a military officer. How can she feel good about this?
But she couldn't do anything. Just as she was about to go back to her room, Ge Xiulan said rudely, "Why, are you envious of me, Third Sister-in-law?"
Su Hongjuan could no longer suppress her anger: "Yes, I envy her. Why, you don't envy her?"
Seeing her murderous expression, Ge Xiulan said, "You are sick. Why are you yelling at me? It's hard to say whether you are envious or not. Let your little man snatch Chuxue's boyfriend away from you. I guarantee that it won't be long before your family can live in a brick house."
Ge Xiulan naturally said this with the intention of provoking and making fun of herself.
But just as she finished her words, Su Hongjuan rushed over like a cannonball, raised her hand and slapped Ge Xiulan twice: "Are you talking like a human being?
If it weren't for you, would it be so difficult for my daughter to find a partner? What do you think of my Xiaoman? Do you think everyone is as shameless as you? "
When the eldest wife heard the noise and came out, the two sisters-in-law were already fighting each other.
When Liu Ruhua from the eldest room saw that Third Aunt was fighting with her mother, she went over to help and stretched out her hand to hit Su Hongjuan. Xiaoman and the second sister Qiufen from the third room could not just watch, so the two sisters stopped Ruhua and said, "Don't meddle in the adults' business."
Ruhua has been struggling, but Xiaoman and Qiufen also hate the people from the first house. If they were not so unscrupulous in their work, they would not have affected the reputation of their third house. Naturally, they would not show mercy to Ruhua.
The news of the fight between the two sisters-in-law soon spread to the new house, and people started saying all kinds of things: "Didn't Liu Laowu brag about his children and grandchildren being the most filial and his wife being the best under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village? Now he's been slapped in the face."
