Chapter 28 Partiality



Erlang dared to argue with Wang, but he didn't dare to get angry at his grandmother, so he remained silent and did not answer.

But the silence at this moment is more like a tacit agreement, but the person is just afraid to say it out loud.

Old Yang did not force him, but continued to ask him:

"Are you angry that your fourth aunt orders your mother around?"

This time, Erlang couldn't help himself and said two words angrily:

“Yes, she still curses my mother every day, and my mother always cries when she comes home!

If she wants legs, I can compensate her!"

Old Madam Yang glared at her second daughter-in-law, but did not say anything to her immediately. Instead, she continued to ask Erlang:

"You think your mother is wronged, but have you ever thought about whether your fourth aunt is wronged because her leg was broken by your mother for no reason and she will be a cripple in the future?"

Jiro was stunned for a moment and muttered:

"I'll compensate her!"

"What compensation do you have for her? Can you afford it?" Old Mrs. Yang raised her voice.

"You keep saying you'll compensate her, but will compensating her with a leg make her better? Will it make her stop limping?"

Erlang opened his mouth and said, "Well, what does she want? To order my mother around for the rest of her life?"

"Who said I would order her around for the rest of her life? Did I say that? Or did your fourth aunt say that?" Old Mrs. Yang asked him indifferently.

Erlang subconsciously looked at Xiao Yangshi, turned his head halfway and said:

"No one."

But in my heart I remembered my mother holding Fubao and crying, mumbling:

"I didn't do it on purpose. She's scolded me, punished me, and still wants me to serve her for the rest of my life. How can I take care of my Fubao then?

Fubao, are you missing your mother? I am sorry for you. I don’t have time to take care of you. You are being treated like a slave and being ordered around all day long…

She just wants her legs, I can just give them back to her, even if I have to crawl, I will come back to see my baby as soon as possible..."

Jilang's head went blank for a moment, and the words he had heard kept turning around in his mind, but he didn't say a word.

Old Yang sighed inwardly, but continued to speak to him slowly:

“No matter who said it, there is no such thing, and no one has asked your mother to serve him for a lifetime.

But shouldn't she be punished for doing such a thing? Since she did something wrong, she should just accept it obediently, not to mention being ordered around and scolded, or even beaten.

Besides, the whole family is watching, and you kids can see it coming in and out, so did your fourth aunt really go too far? Did she insist on this matter? Did she keep bringing it up? "

Jilang thought about it and it seemed... that there was no such thing...

It is true that Fourth Aunt would ask for water, then complain it was too hot, then complain it was cold, then ask Mother to help her to the toilet, then complain that Mother didn't help her well... But it didn't happen endlessly. Most of the time, she would ask Mother to get out and didn't want to see her.

But when his mother came home and cried, Fubao also cried, and the two were always unhappy. He had more and more work to do, and had to wash diapers all day long, so he...

Erlang lowered his head, not knowing what to say or what to think.

Wang wiped away her tears silently and turned her head away. Xingzi and Niu Wa quietly grabbed her hands.

Old Yang didn't notice this, but continued to talk to Erlang:

"Erlang, you have to make your own judgment on right and wrong.

Besides, even if there is anything, you can tell it. You can talk to me or your grandfather. If it makes sense, we will take care of it for you.

This is a matter between adults. You shouldn't yell at your fourth aunt, you shouldn't vent your anger on your sisters who are a few years younger than you, you shouldn't call them money-losing girls, and you shouldn't fight with them.

Yes, but I value my sons and grandsons more."

Old Yang admitted it openly and told him earnestly:

“But this doesn’t mean I don’t love my granddaughter!

If there are any at home, I can treat everyone equally, but if not, I will give priority to you boys.

But you don't give anything?

Erlang, you enjoy better treatment than girls or even your own mother, which means you must shoulder your due responsibilities.

At least as an older brother you should protect your sisters, not just one sister, but all of them in the family.

You should protect them in front of outsiders, love them at home, and after they get married, you should also care about whether they are bullied by their in-laws. If so, you should go and argue with them and stand up for them. When they can't make ends meet, take them home and give them some support. When you are able, you should even buy dowries for them and send them to get married again.

No matter which family they come from, you have the same roots and the same ancestors. You were born in the same family and grew up in the same family, so you are brothers and sisters!

The good treatment you get is taken from those girls, the girls who lose money as you call them, but it doesn't mean you deserve it!

You live better than them because you have two taels of extra flesh under your crotch, but it’s not entirely because of that two taels of flesh!

If you can't shoulder the responsibility of a boy, a brother, you are nothing!"

"And you two," Old Yang said to Rabbit and Apricot, "you are not wrong!"

When everyone heard this, they looked at Old Lady Yang in surprise. Even Erlang, whose head was buzzing, raised his head woodenly.

Old Yang laughed:

"Why are you so surprised?

It is wrong for a sister to hit her brother, but it is right and good to hit the brother who says that they are the girls who pay for their crimes, and who uses them to spread evil spirits!

If you are scolded and you hold it in, then you are not my, Yang Manchun’s granddaughter!

Only a good granddaughter would fight back bravely on the spot. Even if one does not make a living, one must fight for one's dignity. What's the point of living if one does not fight for anything?

Erlang, don’t you think I’m partial to you boys? Well, I’ll be partial to the girls today.

"My eldest daughter-in-law, go cut a piece of meat and fry it for the girls at home. The boys will watch, just like they usually watch you. You can also have a taste of it, and think about how you should treat the girls at home in the future!"

As he spoke, he thought: "Niu Wa should also be with the sisters. Today my little grandson protected the sisters, right? He is more decent than your brother.

But you also have to know that you can't help them and will only get hurt yourself. You shouldn't rush over at this time. You should be like your second sister and come to find an adult immediately.

There is no shame in seeking out someone more powerful when you cannot protect yourself and the person you want to protect.

Those who say it's shameful are just making up nonsense from kids who hit others or participated in a fight and are afraid of being punished or scolded.

Children’s problems should be solved by themselves, and it depends on what the problem is. If there is a risk of getting hurt, an adult should be called in.

By the way, Erlang, don’t eat dinner today. Think carefully with an empty stomach.”

A Yuan looked at his grandmother with sparkling eyes and convinced everyone in no time. He felt that she was the most powerful person he had ever met!

Although she didn't think about power protection or anything like that when she complained, it was just because she felt that the three of them together could not beat the second brother who was so tall, and she was afraid of being beaten. But when her grandmother said that, it seemed like she had done something very smart!

The country daughter-in-law who became a mother-in-law has her own reasons. Of course, there are some reasons that she doesn't talk about, but it is obvious that old Mrs. Yang is not that kind of person.

At dinner, Tuzi, Yuan, Xingzi and Niu Wa shared a whole plate of fried meat. Old Mrs. Yang told them that they didn't have to share the meat with anyone today and they could enjoy a special treatment.

Xingzi was eating with great concentration, and Yuan was also eating with particular relish, but she felt that she had not done anything, so she didn't eat much.

As for the rabbit, she cried almost the entire meal. While crying, she stuffed big mouthfuls of meat into her mouth with a happy smile on her face.

The boys in the family all felt confused. Suddenly they were not loved anymore. But the food didn’t go into anyone else’s mouth, so everyone could only drool and say “Eat, eat.” We won’t be greedy anymore after you finish eating.

It was not until several days later that they found out from Erlang's mouth how they had lost that meal of meat.

Little Yang was scolded again, because old Yang felt that her daughter-in-law had changed and became more and more left-wing, so she scolded her particularly harshly this time and even resorted to violence.

Because Li couldn't take on the responsibilities, as the eldest sister-in-law, she took the lead in taking care of the household affairs and was given a lot of work.

But the matter was finally resolved peacefully.
