Chapter 138 I Shouldn't Have Saved You
Wang knew what her mother-in-law meant. She was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable after giving away the things.
She smiled and explained, "Mom, I understand. My sister-in-law is a good person, and I hope to be closer to her."
"That's right, mother, can that workshop really use us?"
This is what Wang is most concerned about now.
Zheng said, "You heard what Ju'er said just now. Get up early tomorrow morning, eat breakfast, and go there early. I guess many people know about this and there will probably be a queue. It's better to give it a try than to give it nothing at all."
"Maybe he'll go to jail. If he really makes a lot of money, I can even send my grandson to school, or even just learn to read."
Wang said happily, "Yes, that's right. Brother Zhou from our village went to town to become the owner of a cloth shop because he could read and write."
The monthly salary of two taels of silver is well-known in the nearby villages.
It’s because you can read and do accounting. Even if you don’t pass the imperial examination, reading is still useful.
It’s just that most families cannot afford to support scholars.
But if they could really work in the workshop, based on the wages, the family would be able to send their son to school.
The more Wang thought about it, the hotter she felt.
If the family conditions are good, the daughter can marry into a good family.
They had no appetite for dinner that night as they were thinking about this matter alone.
The whole family knew the news and were all excited.
I can't sleep at night.
It's not just the Zheng family that's like this, many families are like this.
When I got the news, I felt excited and nervous.
I hope everyone can work in that sauce-flavor workshop.
…
But on the other side
When Shen Shaojing returned home, it was already dark.
Shen Chengzhou and Cui were both stunned when they saw their fourth son coming back.
Seeing that her son looked unhappy, Cui asked hurriedly, "Shao Jing, is there something wrong with your sister? Didn't you say you were staying there for the time being?"
Cui was still worried about her daughter.
Shen Chengzhou also put down his chopsticks and said, “You haven’t eaten yet, sit down and eat first, and talk while you eat.”
As he spoke, Shen Chengzhou went to get the bowls and chopsticks.
Xuanxuan obediently called him Fourth Uncle,
Shen Shaojing looked at his nephew, and his sullen expression eased a little.
But his face was still very bad, and he said: "Dad and Mom, I can't eat anymore. My second brother and his wife have already made me angry enough."
On the way back, Shen Shaojing became angrier and angrier the more he thought about it.
I was so angry that I almost smoked.
But he still remembered what his sister told him.
He put down the backpack and said, "This is what my sister asked me to bring you."
Cui Shi didn't care about the things, her eyes darkened and she said, "What did your second brother and his wife do to make you so angry?"
"No, you were originally at your sister's place, so there was no way you would have run into your second brother and his wife. Did they go to look for your sister?"
Cui now remembered one thing, that is, the second son and his wife had asked them to come forward so that Yueyao could help them.
He also talked about the third and fourth brothers, saying that they were all brothers and there was no reason to only care about the third and fourth brothers and ignore them.
She was so angry that she chased the man out with a broom.
Why didn't she realize that the second son's wife was such a person before?
Shen Shaojing said angrily: "Dad and Mom, what do you think my second brother is thinking? How can he allow his second sister-in-law to go to my sister's house and make trouble?"
"My second brother and his wife think that it's better for my sister to hire them than to hire others to do the work. Although my sister didn't say much, the villagers said that the tone of my second brother and his wife's words made it seem like they wanted to make decisions for my sister's family."
"Why don't they consider my sister's position? My sister is married, and they are acting like brother and sister-in-law. How can they let my sister live a good life? What will my brother-in-law and Aunt Meng think of my sister?"
"Mrs. Meng and Madam Mei are so good. If this happened to someone else, wouldn't it be harming their own sister if the brother and sister-in-law from my mother's family acted like this?"
Shen Shaojing had dealt with many people outside before, and knew that it was not easy for women in this world.
Even though my sister is spoiled by her parents at home, once she gets married, she will become a member of her husband's family and will be subject to certain restrictions.
My sister’s in-laws are good and treat her well.
There are also some families who torture their daughters-in-law to death.
"Even if my second brother and his wife have selfish motives, they can talk to my younger sister privately. They only think about themselves and ignore my younger sister's reputation and feelings."
"If everyone in Liuhe Village didn't know my sister was good and sided with her, what would have happened to my sister's reputation in the village if my second brother and his wife hadn't made such a fuss?"
In Shen Shaojing's eyes and heart, his sister is good in every way.
No one else can harm my sister.
What's more, he was furious at what his second brother and sister-in-law did.
He doesn't care whether it's his second brother or his sister-in-law. If he makes his sister unhappy, he will just go up and take action.
If I had been there at the time, I would definitely have taken action.
He doesn't care about his own reputation, but he just can't let his sister suffer any injustice.
"Dad and Mom, my sister is very busy on weekdays. It's not easy for her to make a little money, so my second brother and his wife are just trying to get some money."
"What are you talking about? It's better to use your own family than to use others. He also told my sister that those villagers who stood in their way should be taught a lesson by my sister. My sister shouldn't use them."
"My second brother also said that when he was little, he couldn't bear to give his food to his younger sister."
Cui was so angry that she almost cursed, "Bullshit."
"At that time, the food your father and I earned was enough for everyone to eat. Why would he save food? What he ate was also earned by us. How could he have the nerve to say such things?"
Cui never used to swear.
Shen Chengzhou clenched his fists.
"I really shouldn't have saved them in the first place."
When the eldest and second sons were clamoring to separate the family property, they said such unpleasant things to their parents and slandered their reputation behind their backs, but Shen Chengzhou did not say such words.
But now that it involves his daughter, Shen Chengzhou feels he can't tolerate it.
My daughter has been the baby of the family since she was young, and even they are reluctant to say a harsh word to her.
Not to mention that when my daughter was little, she didn't come back for such a long time because of some things, so she didn't want her family to ruin her life.
Even if someone else has wronged the daughter, the second son and his wife should not make trouble.
Cui said, "I never thought that my initial kindness would lead to such a mess."
"Back then, in times of hardship, we didn't eat anything ourselves and used the food we saved to feed them. It would have been fine if they didn't know how to be grateful, but they did this to us."
Cui would never say such harsh words before, but now she is forced into a corner.
I'm so angry.
In the past few years, the second son's wife has made her angry a lot. It would be a lie to say that she is not angry.
In a village, you can see people everywhere.
She, as a parent, raised her son, but now he blames her. She thinks she has not done anything to make her son embarrassed or unhappy, so how could this happen?
"Back then, the second brother fell in love with his wife, and they wanted a betrothal gift of two taels of silver. No family in the surrounding villages would ask for that much, but they dared to ask for it. The second brother thought that since we have the money, we should pay for it."
"Okay, I'll give you two taels of silver. What has the second son's wife paid for coming to this family?"
"She was in confinement and wanted to eat well and not work, so I took care of her. Song Mao was young, so I helped take care of him. Do I have any complaints?"
"If they want to divide the family property, let them do it. If they want good land, give them land. If they want money, give them money. Even after all this, they are still not satisfied."
