Chapter 204 Mom, are you angry and embarrassed?
The reason why the letter of accusation a few years ago did not cause any waves was all thanks to Secretary Zhang.
If he hadn't taken into consideration the fact that Zhou Yong was promoted by him, and with Xu Jianmin's mediation, the matter would not have ended in such a big fuss.
After hearing what Zhao Min said, Zhou Ling felt uneasy.
"Who on earth is so wicked as to repeatedly pick on Big Brother?"
Zhao Min shook his head: "I asked my sister-in-law this question, and she didn't know who was mad at my brother..."
The couple started chatting about this topic, and Cui Shufen came to her daughter's house.
Zhao Min knew very well that he was not liked by Cui Shufen, so he nodded to his mother-in-law as a greeting, and then he carried the child back to the house.
Zhou Ling, who was washing clothes in the outer room, stood up and lifted up her apron to wipe her hands: "Mom, why are you here?"
Cui Shufen rarely comes to Zhou Ling's house. In her words, she feels upset whenever she sees her son-in-law Zhao Min.
"Why am I here? It's because of you. I've been going to the Li family for several days. Are you worried that you won't get into trouble?"
Zhou Ling looked at Cui Shufen, whose face was neither a face nor a nose, and felt upset after hearing what she said.
"Mom, how does my going to the Li family bother you?"
Zhou Ling understood what Cui Shufen meant, but she had her own ideas. Besides, she was already married. As a mother, what right did she have to interfere in her daughter's life?
"You damn girl, I'm saying this for your own good. Do you want to be called in for a talk?"
Zhou Ling didn't bother to look at her mother. She slowly sat down and continued to wash clothes: "Mom, let's talk, what's the big deal? My eldest brother didn't do those things, what's there to be afraid of?"
Cui Shufen did not understand the meaning of her daughter's words, nor did she analyze them. She just said, "What's so scary about that? You'll know how scary it is when your house is searched."
House search?
Zhou Ling looked up at her mother and said, "Mom, this is New China. Do you think it's ancient times? You're still confiscating our property? Why don't you just say you're going to exterminate all nine generations of our clan?"
Cui Shufen looked at her daughter's nonchalant expression and became extremely angry.
"I warn you, don't go to the Li family in the future, so as to avoid your eldest brother getting into trouble and getting you involved..."
Zhou Ling paused while washing clothes, she slowly raised her head and looked at Cui Shufen: "Mom, no matter what, he is my eldest brother. Now my eldest brother is in trouble and I can't help him in other ways. Is it wrong to just go and take a look?
I understand what you mean, you want me to draw a line between me and my elder brother, but I tell you, I can’t do it…”
When she was in marital trouble, it was Zhou Yong who helped her regardless of past grudges, and Zhou Ling will always remember this.
Now that Zhou Yong is in trouble, putting aside the relationship between brother and sister, even if they are friends, they should visit his home and maintain a superficial relationship.
But when the matter came to Cui Shufen, she immediately drew a line between herself and her eldest son, and even forbade the three brothers Zhou Gang, Zhou Qiang and Zhou Tao to visit the Li family.
In Cui Shufen's words, they didn't benefit from Zhou Yong's success, and he treated them like enemies. It's not their fault that he's in trouble now, so there's no need for their family to get involved.
"You silly girl, why can't you tell good from bad? Mom is doing this for your own good. Do you want to sacrifice yourself before you are willing to..."
Without waiting for her mother to finish her words, Zhou Ling threw the clothes she was washing into the basin, splashing water everywhere, and Cui Shufen stopped talking abruptly.
"What do you mean, damn girl?"
Zhou Ling stood up slowly, and said expressionlessly: "Mom, when I was a child, you told me that Zhou Yong was my biological brother, and no matter what occasion I met my brother, I had to act very intimately!
I did as I was told, but I still couldn't get a smile from my elder brother. Then I asked you why, and you said it was because my elder brother was young and didn't understand your good intentions.
As I grew older, your expectations of my elder brother gradually fell through, and then you started saying in front of us that my elder brother was an ungrateful person. At that time, I didn't know how to distinguish right from wrong, and I thought you were right, and I hated my elder brother in my heart.
But gradually I discovered that some things were not the case at all.
The reason why my eldest brother doesn't associate with us is entirely your fault.
In front of others, you always tell others about your sorrows and pains, saying how good you are to my elder brother and how much we respect him. Don't you know that you are just trying to win everyone's sympathy?
Behind other people’s backs, you treated my elder brother with a different face, calling him an ungrateful ungrateful person, and even said that if you had known my elder brother was like this, you would rather strangle him to death than let him grow up…”
As soon as she said this, Cui Shufen slapped her daughter in the face with an angry look on her face.
In an instant——
Five bright red finger marks appeared on Zhou Ling's left cheek, which showed how hard Cui Shufen slapped her.
"Mom, are you angry and embarrassed?"
Zhou Ling covered her left cheek and looked at Cui Shufen with a half-smile, her eyes filled with sadness that was hard to conceal.
Cui Shufen was furious. She raised her shaking arm and pointed at Zhou Ling: "How dare you say that to me, you loser? I want to know who gave you the courage..."
Money-losing stuff?
Zhou Ling put down her hands that were covering her face and smiled: "Mom, I am a money-loser, so what are you?"
As a woman, Cui Shufen called Zhou Ling a money-loser, but has she ever thought that she is also a money-loser?
Cui Shufen looked around angrily, turned around, picked up a fire poker and wanted to hit Zhou Ling.
Unexpectedly, the fire poker that Cui Shufen swung over was caught by Zhou Ling.
"You damn girl, you still dare to resist?"
Zhou Ling said without any emotion: "Do you still think I'm not married? You can hit me if you want, you can scold me if you want, I tell you, this kind of thing will never happen again.
If you dare to hit me today, I will go to the Public Security Brigade to sue you. If the Public Security Brigade doesn’t care, I will go to the police station…”
Cui Shufen stared at her daughter and her heart trembled when she heard her cold words.
She keenly realized that Zhou Ling was not joking, and this realization instantly made her heart feel as painful as if it was cut by a knife.
"Zhou Ling, I'm your biological mother, how could you do this to me?"
Zhou Ling snatched the fire stick from Cui Shufen's hand: "How dare you say such things? If you treated me as your daughter, why would you withhold all my betrothal money? You call it the betrothal money to repay your kindness in raising me..."
Because Cui Shufen withheld all the betrothal money, Zhou Ling didn't even have new clothes to wear on the day she married Zhao Min.
After marrying into the Zhao family, Zhou Ling was often ridiculed and mocked by several sisters-in-law because of this incident. In the end, Zhao Min fell out with his family, and the couple separated from the Zhao family and lived on their own.
When they just separated, they had nothing and the couple could only work hard. When Zhou Ling was seven or eight months pregnant, she still followed Zhao Min to collect mountain products in the mountains!
On the day she gave birth, she was working with everyone else in the harvest harvest, and the baby was almost born in the field.
And the culprit behind all this is none other than her biological mother Cui Shufen.
Even so, Zhou Ling never said a bad word about her parents, either in front of others or behind their backs. As a result, she still never got any good response from Cui Shufen.
