Chapter 38 I feel relieved after becoming a shrew
"Rutang, do you think it's a bit too much for us to do this?"
Hao Mei asked her daughter while she was packing.
"What's too much? I didn't tell a single lie." Rutang followed her mother to clean up. It was not difficult to hear from her cheerful voice that she was in a very good mood at the moment.
With the whole village as witness, Rutang directed all the pressure of public opinion onto the Chen family and occupied the moral high ground.
Under pressure from the situation, the village chief had no choice but to agree to issue a divorce letter of introduction to Ru Tangniang and Chen Fu. It has to be opened, Yu Yaoyang is guarding there.
The village chief had serious doubts. If he didn't agree, Yu Yaoyang would still give him a pair of couplets. Who wouldn't be afraid?
Rutang also aroused the mood of the crowd. Although Yu Yaoyang was the funny guy throughout the whole process, he performed several duties at the same time, including but not limited to thug, bodyguard, background music accompaniment, and artistic role - making up dirty rumors and reciting couplets, which was also artistic.
Rutang didn't speak very often, but every word she said was to the point.
In just a few words, the villagers understood what had happened. It was the Chen family who had gone too far in bullying others. The reason why Hao Mei could not stay in the village was because the Chen family members were yelling at her and her daughter to get out.
The most brilliant thing is that Rutang didn't tell a single lie the whole time. She just skillfully told the truth that was beneficial to her family, including what she said to Sixth Aunt's daughter, "We did say it, but we don't know whether she did it or not." This is a textbook public relations method. After all, she has been a lady for most of her life, and she started from scratch with Yu Yaoyang. What kind of storms has she not seen?
"Rutang, when did you become so eloquent? I remember when you were a kid, you couldn't even speak complete sentences when you quarreled with others, and you trembled when you encountered problems. How come you even dared to confront your uncle today?"
Hao Mei was puzzled.
The daughter just cooperated so well with her future son-in-law, so well that she almost thought she was watching a female version of Yu Yaoyang.
"If you spend twenty years with a man who can curse at people without using any dirty words in a comedian's comedy, you'd run away too." Ru Tang muttered softly.
Those who are close to vermilion will be red, those who are close to ink will be black, and those who are close to the bright sun will be in danger of being destroyed!
"What did you say?" Hao Mei didn't hear clearly.
"I'm telling you, mother, do you feel happy today? Don't worry about right or wrong, I just want to ask you, do you feel happy today?"
"That's really refreshing." Hao Mei nodded. She had been bullied by her husband's family for most of her life. It was always the Chen Fu, Chen Cai, Chen Yun and the old lady of the Chen family who bullied her. She was not good at talking and could not scold back when they bullied her. She could only come back at night and cry secretly.
The daughter and future son-in-law teamed up to show Hao Mei a textbook-level fight, letting her know that it was actually possible to quarrel like this.
"Just be happy. Life is only a few decades long. Tolerating and being frustrated will only make you angry and cause breast hyperplasia. There is no benefit. Others will only think you are cowardly. A great man once said a couplet. The first line is "Tolerate for a while and cause breast hyperplasia", and the second line is "To take a step back and cause ovarian cysts". The horizontal banner reads, "Since I became a shrew, I feel comfortable!"
"Which great man said this?!"
"Your son-in-law."
Yu Yaoyang came in with an aluminum lunch box. He had just returned home to get his lunch and happened to hear these words.
"Don't accuse me, I never said such a thing."
Rutang snorted. He didn’t say it now, but he would say it in a few years.
When Rutang first married him, she was a timid and pitiful little girl. You can tell what she is like by looking at her mother now. When she is wronged, she knows how to hide in her bed and cry.
This made Yu Yaoyang very anxious. She was taught step by step how to confront people and how to swear. She was being taught one-on-one by a veteran street slicker. How could she not be awesome?
He even set rules for her. Don't be afraid of fighting with others. People in the Yu family are never afraid of anything. They have only one principle: they can only win and not lose. Even if they can't beat the opponent, they have to slap him in the face or spit on him, then come back and tell him, and he will fight for her.
If he knew that she was wronged and didn't dare to fight back, that would be a big deal. He would directly press her down on the kang - beep - until she couldn't get off.
"But what Rutang said does make sense. It doesn't matter whether she is a shrew or not. As long as my family is happy and not at a disadvantage, that's all that matters. I just took this opportunity to leave. It's not safe to live in this cramped place."
Yu Yaoyang opened the lunch box as he spoke. Inside were dishes cooked by his mother, all of which he had packed up and brought over.
Xiao Li fully supported her son's obvious behavior of betraying her family. She even snatched the only boiled duck egg from her youngest son and packed it up, saying that it was for her future daughter-in-law.
The silly son is able to help his future mother-in-law with work. This is a blessing he has earned in his previous life. The more work he does, the less Rutang and her mother will dislike Yu Yaoyang, right?
Xiao Li was feeling very happy at home, thinking that there was such a good thing happening, so she quickly kicked her own son out to show off.
It turned out that Xiao Li's idea was correct.
When Hao Mei saw that Yu Yaoyang had brought so much food and would soon ride a tricycle to take her and Rutang into the city, she felt indescribable.
The home she had lived in for decades was gone just like that, but her daughter had found a good home, and she couldn't stay there any longer just for her daughter's sake.
Hao Mei is cowardly, but she is not confused in her heart. Today's incident has caused such a big fuss. If she stays in the village, the Chen family will definitely suppress and bully her and use her to control Rutang. Her daughter is about to get married, and she cannot cause trouble for the child.
Confusion about the future made Hao Mei's tears drop onto the rice. Afraid that her daughter would find out, she lowered her head and ate the rice frantically.
Yu Yaoyang, who was sitting next to him, cleared his throat when he saw this.
"Aunt, I'll give you a poem too!"
"Cough cough!" Hao Mei choked and was scared.
She didn't even have time to cry. She was so frightened that her heart turned pale from morning to night. She had seen her future son-in-law's level of writing small yellow couplets. He was going to burst into laughter!
"Now let's start from the beginning. The long road ahead is as hard as iron! Auntie, your past is tortuous, but your future is definitely bright. Look, you have such a beautiful daughter and such a good son-in-law. What do you have to worry about?"
"Huh~" Rutang and Hao Mei breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Fortunately, this guy didn't say anything inappropriate, and didn't use words like "thirsty old lady" like he did to the old man.
"What's that expression?" Yu Yaoyang looked at Rutang sideways. This little girl, if she wants to laugh, just laugh. Why is she covering her mouth?
"Hahaha!" Rutang really laughed.
When she smiled, Hao Mei smiled too, and the pressure in her heart suddenly eased a lot. After all, with such a daughter and son-in-law, what else did she have to worry about?
"Hurry up and eat. After that we still have to go into the city." Yu Yaoyang livened up the atmosphere and invited everyone to eat, but he saw Rutang touching his chin and looking at him thoughtfully.
"What are you thinking about?" Yu Yaoyang asked, taking a bite of rice.
The next second, Rutang's words made his food spray out of his nostrils. He was so shocked!
