It was already evening when Second Sister Xie followed the large group back to the county town.
Their home is in a tube-shaped building in the unit's staff compound. It is very lively as soon as you enter the compound. Neighbors come to greet them and ask where the couple have been today.
Second Sister Xie responded to them enthusiastically without hiding anything, saying that her younger brother had opened a shop in the city and they were going to the city today to watch the ceremony.
When Xiangyi Luwei opened its store, there were very few shops in the county, so it attracted considerable attention as soon as it opened.
There were also quite a few people discussing this in their family compound.
When Second Sister Xie heard their discussion, she happily said that it was a shop opened by her younger brother and sister-in-law, and she also told everyone to go and support it when they had time.
Being a self-employed person was not something to be proud of at that time. Xie Erjie's parents-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. He, were a little unhappy when they learned that Xie Erjie had bluntly said that her brother and sister-in-law were doing business.
However, thanks to Second Sister Xie's publicity, everyone in the family compound knew that her brother and sister-in-law were in business.
Now I am really surprised to hear that they have expanded their business to the city.
Second Sister Xie is quite popular. No matter what others think, they will praise her in front of her.
Second Sister Xie was very happy to hear everyone praising her brother and sister-in-law, and couldn't help but chat with them for a few more words.
He Feng is an arrogant, flamboyant man who cares about his reputation. Whenever he goes out, he always acts like he is the head of the family.
Ever since he heard what Xie's mother said at the door today, he has been so well-behaved in front of Second Sister Xie that he doesn't seem like himself anymore. He follows Second Sister Xie like a little follower.
At the moment, Second Sister Xie was chatting with someone, and he just followed her obediently without saying a word.
This caused the neighbors to look at him several times.
After chatting for a few words, they went back. Before they even entered the house, the couple heard a weird voice coming from inside the house:
"Wait a minute, the meal will be ready soon. You can't blame grandma for not being able to have dinner so late tonight. It's mainly because of your mother. She insisted on attending the opening of her brother's new store. She didn't even work and didn't care about you! In her heart, her maternal family is the most important. She treats your uncles' children better than you..."
"Grandma, it's not like that. Mom said that my brother and I are her children, and she loves us the most! Grandpa and grandma are her parents, and she loves them too..." Her eldest daughter explained in a very serious tone.
"Your mother says nice things. If she really loves you, she shouldn't have attended your uncle's opening ceremony today. With an uncle who is a self-employed businessman, you will be laughed at in the staff quarters and school..." He's mother muttered.
"Mom!" Sister Xie couldn't stand it any longer. She pushed the door open and asked coldly, "What did you say in front of the child?"
Mother He was not afraid of being caught by Second Sister Xie. She pouted and said, "Is what I said not true? Although you married into our family, you never put our family first! Wen Qi, if you ask me, you have married into our family and are a member of our family, so you should put our family first and have less contact with your parents' family..."
"Mom!" Seeing the expression on Second Sister Xie's face becoming increasingly cold, He Feng hurriedly called for his mother to stop, but it was too late.
"I married into your family, but I wasn't sold into your family!" Second Sister Xie said angrily, "If we really talk about closeness, my parents are my closest relatives! They are the people I should put first. If I have to have less contact with them, it should be with your family!"
"You, what do you mean?" He's mother's face changed.
This was not the first time she had said such things in front of Second Sister Xie. Second Sister Xie would refute her at first, but later on, she refuted less and less. She thought she was afraid of her.
Did I take the wrong medicine today?
Second Sister Xie didn't take the wrong medicine. After that, she rarely refuted He's mother and just became numb.
Because no matter what she said, He's mother just talked about her own things and didn't care what she said. If she argued with her, it would only make people laugh and make the whole family restless.
"I'm telling you, if your family really looks down on my family and continues to belittle my family," Second Sister Xie glanced at her, He's father, and He Feng, and said bluntly, "Then I'm divorcing He Feng!"
She has given up hope. She had never thought about divorce before, but now she thinks that divorce is fine, even if it means hurting her two children...
"you!"
"daughter in law!"
He's father, mother and He Feng were shocked. Before they could say anything, Second Sister Xie continued, "But if we really get divorced, the two children will belong to me!"
After that, she looked at her son and daughter, stretched out her hands to them and said, "Xia Xia Cheng Cheng, let's go. We won't eat at home today. Mom will take you to the restaurant to eat braised pork!"
She took her son and daughter away.
He's father, He's mother, and He Feng: "..."
"She, what does she mean by this?" He's mother trembled with anger.
"Mom, please say less in the future and show more respect to my Yue family!" He Feng pressed his temple helplessly. He was overwhelmed by too many things today and his head was about to explode.
"What do you mean I should say less? I'm not talking nonsense. Isn't what I said true?" He's mother said unconvinced:
"What's so good about her family? They're just a bunch of peasants! If she dies, I don't know how much stuff she'll have to take from our house and bring back to her family!"
At this point, He's mother was disappointed again: "I told you at the beginning not to marry her, not to marry her. She is not a good match. If she marries you, it will definitely bring unrest to the family! But you didn't believe me. Look, you even dared to talk back to me!"
