Chapter 69: My son works hard to earn money to support the family
"Isn't there a reason why I'm targeting her?"
"My son works hard outside to earn money to support the family, but what about her? She just stays at home and does not even help with housework. She spends all day in town shopping for clothes!"
"Look at the families in our village. Which young wife is as wasteful as she is every day? She only knows how to spend money when she opens her eyes every day."
"Jiang Xin's wardrobe is filled with clothes, all new, some even without tags. Even in this state, she still goes to town to buy clothes. Who can stand this?"
"You all saw it. The package she was holding was from the only department store in our town. You all should know how expensive the stuff inside is, right?"
"Jiang Xin has already taken out the clothes she bought and showed them to you. I roughly calculated it. We are not all fools. We can tell the price of her clothes at a glance. I think they are almost 200 yuan. Who can afford this?"
"When I think of my poor son marrying such a daughter-in-law, my heart aches."
"Have pity on my poor son!"
When Mother Fu said these words, there was some sincerity in her words. After all, in her heart, she really thought that Jiang Xin was a spendthrift.
She spends money without blinking an eye. Let me ask you, who dares to buy clothes like Jiang Xin?
More than two hundred yuan!
If all the money was given to her, it would be enough to cover their family expenses for most of half a year.
It must be said that this is the way to spend it if you eat meat every day!
This morning, after Jiang Xin left the house, Fu's mother saw that she was not at home, so she had some evil thoughts.
She took advantage of Jiang Xin's absence and went into Jiang Xin's room and rummaged around. When she opened the closet, she was instantly stunned.
The closet full of new clothes were all top-notch in terms of style, workmanship, and fabrics, and one could tell at a glance that they had cost a lot of money.
In fact, Fu's mother was not very clear about Jiang Xin's family background. She only knew that she was Jiang Wan's distant cousin, a distant relative, but they had no idea how close the relationship was.
After all, in the beginning, Fu Yu married Jiang Xin just to force the issue and to silence the villagers' gossips.
How could they have so much time to get to know Jiang Xin's family?
Moreover, these are all relatives, and their family economic situations are probably similar. If you refer to the conditions of Jiang Wan's family, you can get an idea of the conditions of Jiang Xin's family.
I guess there isn't much money to go around!
Maybe even her family is not as rich as hers!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent his daughter all the way from the provincial capital to the countryside. Maybe she ran away to avoid debt because the family was in huge debt!
When Mrs. Fu thought about it, she instantly felt that Jiang Xin's closet of clothes was particularly annoying.
Not only did she dislike the sight, Fu's mother even had some other evil thoughts. She thought, since Jiang Xin had so many clothes, she could secretly take out a few pieces when Jiang Xin wasn't paying attention, and she shouldn't be able to notice.
It's a bit of a waste to let Jiang Xin wear such nice clothes alone.
On her mother's side, the girls of her brothers and sisters are almost the same age as Jiang Xin.
They are about the same age, and there is no difference in body shape and weight. Jiang Xin's clothes should be able to be worn by her nieces.
As a result, before she could take any action, Jiang Xinren came back.
Jiang Xin was originally still calm and composed, as if to say, "You guys can quarrel, I just want some quiet time."
As a result, she heard that Fu's mother criticized her for spending too much money on clothes.
Jiang Xin was really enlightened. She didn't expect that this could become a reason for Fu's mother to pick on her.
It was really speechless. Jiang Xin didn't indulge Mother Fu. After she finished speaking, she retorted mercilessly:
"What's wrong with me buying clothes? That's my own hobby!"
"The money I spent was all my own money. I didn't spend a penny from your Fu family. You are not my parents, so why do you have the right to control me?"
"If you keep saying that, I'll tear your mouth to pieces. I don't care if you're my elder or not. As long as you make me unhappy, I'll settle the score with you."
Jiang Xin was so angry that she was furious. Her temper flared up and she started to retort directly.
Mother Fu saw this and was surprised that Jiang Xin dared to refute her even at this time.
Mother Fu directly brought out her own twisted logic:
"I'm your mother-in-law, why can't I take care of you?"
"Since you've married my son, I don't care how much money you had in your pocket before you got married. Now, the money in your pocket is half of my son's. When you spend your own money, you are also spending my son's money. Why can't I control it?"
Jiang Xin was shocked. She never thought that Mother Fu could say such shameless words.
Jiang Xin couldn't stand it anymore and exploded:
"I don't bother to pay attention to you, so you really give yourself face, right?"
"Such shameless words can come out of your mouth. Why should my money belong to your son?"
"When I married into your family, I didn't ask for a single cent of dowry. The money in my pocket was all given to me by my parents. How dare you say that my money is yours?"
"I can buy my clothes however I want, you have no right to interfere!"
When Fu's mother saw this, she was about to fight back.
After hearing Fu's mother complain about Jiang Xin's wasteful spending, the people in the village began to talk about it. They were all discussing Jiang Xin, thinking that she was too willing to spend money on clothes.
The situation was becoming increasingly chaotic and was almost out of control.
At this time, at some point, the village chief who had come to the Fu family's yard finally spoke:
"Alright, alright, since there's nothing else to do, let's all go."
"It's so hot, and you're all gathered together. Don't you feel hot? You're from different households. Don't you have anything to do? Go away, go away quickly!"
"If anyone is still here to watch the fun, there is still a lot of work to be done in the production team. Anyone who wants to be captured by me as a soldier can stay here."
Nowadays, what the village chief says in the village still has some deterrent effect.
Besides, each of these villagers still has a lot of farm work to do at home.
At this time, when they heard the village chief say that whoever watched the fun here would be arrested and forced to work as a soldier, they all panicked and ran away quickly, fearing that if they left a little later, they would be arrested and forced to work.
