Madam Xu's real name is Guan Jinghua.
She was beautiful when she was young, and when she reached marriageable age, many men came to her house to seek her hand in marriage.
The Xu family is not the one with the best conditions.
But Guan Yu was so worried about his daughter that he chose and chose again, and finally decided to give her to the young and ambitious Xu Jueping.
Guan Jinghua herself is also very satisfied with this husband.
In her opinion, Xu Jueping is good-looking, ambitious and goal-oriented. As a weak-willed person in a family, having her alone is enough.
So, the two of them got married naturally.
In the second year after her marriage, she gave birth to her eldest son Xu Qing. A few years later, she gave birth to her daughter Xu Mei.
The days of having children around her were truly blissful. Even though there were some problems in her marriage, Guan Jinghua felt that her decision was the right one.
Xiaomei is really a caring and understanding little cotton-padded jacket.
She seemed to know how to love her mother naturally. Every time her grandmother was angry, she would stand firmly on her mother's side.
She loved to rest her chin on Guan Jinghua's knees and look at her without blinking. When she was sad about her son being raised by her mother-in-law, she would use her little hands to wipe her tears.
"Mom, why are you crying? Is it because Dad didn't send you money?" she asked in a baby voice.
"No, your father's allowance arrives on time every month." Guan Jinghua hugged her. "Mom can't bear to leave your brother, and she loves you too."
Xu Mei was too young to understand her mother's heartache, she just stubbornly wiped her tears.
Looking at her cute little face tightly wrapped around her, like a little adult, Guan Jinghua gradually wiped away her tears.
She doesn't just have a son, she also has a daughter. Even if her mother-in-law doesn't like daughters, she can still teach her well.
Feelings are cultivated.
Gradually, Guan Jinghua loved her daughter more and more, even more than her own son.
She spent a lot of time thinking about the style of clothes. Even the most gray fabric could be turned into a beautiful skirt in her hands.
With these clothes, Xu Mei has been the envy of the girls in the courtyard since she was a child.
Whether the mother-in-law and husband are dissatisfied or angry, the daughter and herself have their own pure land.
Later, when the war ended, her mother-in-law passed away suddenly. Xu Qing even stayed in the same room with her deceased grandmother for an entire afternoon.
Xu Jueping came back. He comforted his wife and daughter and took his son to live with him.
Looking at her silent eldest son, Guan Jinghua was filled with guilt. From then on, she almost always responded to her son's requests.
However, since they were children, the relationship between the brother and sister was not very close. She was often distressed by this, but she had no way to express it.
In this family, she has had a very clear self-positioning since she married into it.
That is to listen to Xu Jueping.
She did whatever Xu Jueping said.
Xu Jueping has the advantages of being a responsible family man, but he also has a strong sense of chauvinism. Living under the same roof with him, even a good-tempered person like Guan Jinghua is often driven to tears by him.
Every time Xu Mei saw such intimacy, she felt both distressed and angry.
"Dad is so mean," she frowned, "He doesn't respect you at all."
"Xiaomei, keep your voice down."
Guan Jinghua was shocked. "Your dad is just like that. Mom's fine. Everyone goes through this the same way."
Her own father, mother, brother and sister-in-law were all like this, so Guan Jinghua never felt that there was anything wrong.
"Mom, it's not true." A smile flickered in Xu Mei's eyes, which resembled hers. "The book says that in modern society, men and women are equal, and husbands should love and tolerate their wives."
Guan Jinghua knew that her daughter had recently taken to reading in bookstores. She looked very cheerful and happy every time she read.
"Those are just miscellaneous books," Guan Jinghua said worriedly, "You're still an unmarried girl, so don't say such things."
Xu Mei curled her lips, but ultimately didn't argue with her. It seemed that she was not convinced.
Turning her head, she still plunged into the ocean of books. She borrowed four or five books every week and not only finished reading them, but also wrote many notes on them.
