Ye Xuanhan moved his lips, wanting to say a few words to help Jiang Wang, but he was afraid that Wei's mother would get angry and kick them both out.
So he stood aside and waited for Wei's mother to speak.
The other person's expression kept changing, from pain at first to excitement, and then to calm.
Wei's mother remained silent, and Jiang Wang's back was stiff, as if he had already anticipated that Wei's mother might beat or scold him.
After a while, Wei's mother sighed and said, "Alas, this is not your fault. It's my son's fate."
Jiang Wang and Ye Hanhan looked at Wei's mother with an expression of disbelief on their faces.
"I know exactly what kind of person my son is," said Wei's mother. "He was timid and cowardly since he was young. He became brave after joining the army. He is quite like his father. It's a pity that his father died early and didn't see how outstanding our son is."
Mother Wei cried as she spoke, as if she had a lot of unspeakable pain in her heart that she couldn't vent.
Ye Hanhan stepped forward, supported Wei's mother, who was unable to stand, and sat her on a chair nearby.
...
...
"Aunt Wei, take care of yourself."
A mother loses her child without any expectation.
Ye Han couldn't imagine how painful this was.
It is impossible to soothe the pain in Wei's mother's heart.
All she and Jiang Wang could do was to let her live the rest of her life in peace and take care of this kind mother on behalf of Wei Xing.
Mother Wei wiped away her tears and said, "Oh, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go find my daughter. She has been working in the fields for a while and is wearing thinner clothes than me..."
Ye Han nodded, and then asked: "Aunt, put on some more clothes to avoid getting cold."
"My clothes were torn apart by my eldest daughter-in-law, who said they were to make clothes for the children. I..." As she spoke, Mother Wei began to choke up again, her lips began to tremble, and her face was full of bitterness.
"Aunt, please sit here first," Ye Han stood up and pulled Jiang Wang's arm, "Let's go discuss this with your eldest daughter-in-law."
After saying that, Ye Hanhan and Jiang Wang went to the kitchen.
Chen Lihua, who was cooking, reluctantly put the firewood into the stove and cursed: "You old fool, if you dare to eat a bite later, I will see what I will do--"
Ye Hanhan frowned when he heard Chen Lihua's curse, then went into the kitchen and shouted, "Sister-in-law, stop working. We won't stay at your house for lunch."
Chen Lihua was so scared that the firewood in her hand fell to the ground. She raised her head to check the expressions of Ye Xuanhan and Jiang Wang. She felt relieved only after making sure that the two of them did not look strange.
These two people are here to kill the old woman. If they hear me scolding her, they will definitely stand up for her.
So he put on a fake smile and said, "No, comrades, please stay and have a quick meal. I've already done half of it."
"Sister-in-law, we are planning to take Aunt Wei out for a while," Ye Han said. "I saw that she was wearing thin clothes, so I wanted to ask you for some clothes for her."
When Chen Lihua heard that Ye Hanhan wanted to borrow clothes for Wei's mother, her expression twisted for a moment, but soon returned to normal, "Look at what you said, my mother-in-law is really something, she is so polite in her own home, she doesn't even know to go to my room to get a piece of clothing."
At the same time, she secretly cursed Ye Xuanhan for meddling in her affairs. If it weren't for the money they gave her, she would have turned against them long ago.
Since she didn't get the money, Chen Lihua naturally didn't dare to be cold to Ye Hanhan.
"Sister-in-law, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go talk to Aunt Wei and ask her to go to your room and pick out some clothes."
Ye Xuanhan saw that Chen Lihua was reluctant, so he directly told Wei's mother to choose the clothes herself.
Chen Lihua wanted to say that she would go get it for Wei's mother, but was stopped by Ye Hanhan, with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Okay...then you tell her."
At this time, Jiang Wang said, "Sister-in-law, we will be back with Aunt Wei around 4pm. Will the rest of your family be home?"
After hearing what Jiang Wang said, Chen Lihua seemed to smell a benefit, and immediately said with a smile: "Yes, yes, my husband and the second son just came back from the city today, and the second son's family also just came home."
Jiang Wang nodded, "That's good."
Ye Xuanhan and Jiang Wang returned to the main room.
"Aunt Wei, your eldest daughter-in-law has agreed to let you wear her clothes. Hurry and change. Let's go now."
"This...is not good."
"What's wrong with that? She's your daughter-in-law, and she should respect you."
Ye Xuanhan wanted to cure Chen Lihua, so he followed Wei's mother to the room where Chen Lihua lived.
People in the village are not very particular and there are no wardrobes specifically for clothes.
Chen Lihua's clothes were stacked in a wooden box, and at first glance there were only a few pieces.
Seeing that Wei's mother wanted to take the top piece of old clothes, Ye Han stopped her and said, "Aunt Wei, it's very cold outside, you'd better wear something thicker." Then he took out a thick piece of clothing from the bottom of the box.
"Let's take this one," Ye Han put the clothes on Wei's mother, "It fits perfectly."
Mother Wei was a little worried. "This is a new dress made by my daughter-in-law. I can't..."
Ye Hanhan frowned, "Aunt Wei, wear what you need to wear. Don't be tolerant, otherwise your daughter-in-law will always bully you."
A good man is often bullied, and a good horse is often ridden.
Ye Xuanhan knew this truth very well.
Aunt Wei is too kind, which is why her daughter-in-law bullies her, and her two sons don't care about it.
In the end, Aunt Wei couldn't persuade Ye Xuanhan and put on the clothes.
Ye Hanhan remembered that Aunt Wei said her daughter was also wearing thin clothes and must be freezing working in the fields.
So she picked and chose from the wooden box and found a slightly inferior thick piece of clothing, "Aunt Wei, this is for your daughter. We will go to the field to find her later."
Aunt Wei knew that Ye Xuanhan meant well and said nothing more.
Anyway, whether I wear my daughter-in-law's clothes or not, I will be scolded by her.
It would be better to just throw away the jar and not care about anything.
When Ye Hanhan and Jiang Wang took Wei's mother out, Chen Lihua, who was cooking in the kitchen, glanced outside and saw that Wei's mother was wearing clothes from the bottom of her closet. She was so angry that she almost couldn't help but go out and curse.
But then he thought that Ye Xuanhan and Jiang Wang had not yet taken out the money, so he had to suppress his anger.
Chen Lihua thought, "I'll deal with this old lady after everyone leaves and see if she dares to get ahead of me again."
Following Wei's mother's footsteps, Ye Han and Jiang Wang came to the field.
Wei's mother just waved her hand, and a girl who was working in the fields ran up to the three of them.
"Xiu Xiu," Mother Wei put a thick cotton jacket on Wei Xiu, "put on the clothes that I brought you from home."
