The last family disliked Li Zhaodi for being too thin and small, so they bought a girl from another family.
Besides feeling sorry for that girl, Zhen Wanwan couldn't help but feel fortunate that she hadn't been transported into a family that favored sons over daughters. Fortunately, her family members all cared for her.
Old Mrs. Li retorted angrily, "Wang, how dare you be so shameless? Don't you even take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? Are you trying to kill us?!"
The second son of the Zhen family was already unhappy that his mother-in-law wanted to sell his sister-in-law to buy grain, and now he even wanted to borrow their grain!
Because of his filial piety, he couldn't directly confront her, but his face turned red with anger, and he found his wife increasingly unpleasant to look at.
Wang Cuihua was secretly anxious, fearing that her mother-in-law would soften her heart and take the grain, which would then benefit her second son's wife's family.
Although Grandpa Zhen didn't say anything, he stood silently at the back without offering any opinion, clearly supporting Grandma Li.
The family members had different thoughts, but their final decision was the same: not to lend!
Li Wangshi didn't expect Old Lady Li to speak so harshly. She felt both embarrassed and angry, but unfortunately, there was no more food left in the house.
Her dear son hasn't eaten yet today!
“Mother-in-law, please don’t be angry. I’m not asking for food for nothing. Don’t worry, when we get there, I will definitely repay you double! My Guangzong will not forget his sister’s family when he becomes successful.”
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Li spat and said with a half-smile, "Who the hell cares about your little brat!"
"You...you...whoosh..."
Wang's most precious son was her youngest son. When she heard Old Lady Li looking down on Li Guangzong, she was so angry that she jumped up and down. She pointed at Old Lady Li tremblingly and couldn't speak for a long time.
Li Zhenzhen felt sorry for her mother. Seeing her mother like this, she complained to her mother-in-law, wondering why she was unwilling to share some of the grain with her mother's family.
Grandma Li said disdainfully, "If you're going to leave, then leave quickly. Don't block our way from eating."
Since the two families fell out, the Zhen family has had little contact with the Li family, with only Zhen Fu and his wife occasionally going to help out.
After being rejected, Wang was too ashamed to stay. She sneered, "Don't ever kneel down and beg my family for food again!"
"Pah!"
Zhen Wanwan was so angry she laughed; the Li family was really shameless.
After everyone left, Zhen's family quickly finished their dinner, but Li Zhenzhen was absentmindedly looking in the direction of her parents' home.
Zhen Wanwan expressed her helplessness, saying that her second sister-in-law was just too clueless!
Nowadays, which family with grain would not keep it for themselves but instead lend it to others while going hungry?
Li Zhenzhen finally couldn't hold back and knelt down with tears in her eyes, pleading, "Father, Mother, please help my family."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zhen sighed and remained silent. In matters concerning his daughter-in-law, it was always Grandma Li who made the decisions.
Old Mrs. Li was furious. Before the marriage, her second daughter-in-law always pleased her and spoke in a pleasing manner.
The main reason was that they shared the same surname, were from the same family five hundred years ago, and the second son liked her, which is why he agreed to take her back.
Who knew she had this kind of personality!
"Second son's wife, have you thought this through? Since you're kneeling here today begging us to send the life-saving food to your family, it means you don't want to be a daughter-in-law of the Zhen family anymore."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenzhen cried even harder, as if she had suffered a great injustice, and dared not continue to beg Old Lady Li.
Old Mrs. Li didn't give her time to consider, and turned to her second son: "Second son, you've seen it too, your wife is wholeheartedly devoted to her own family and doesn't treat our Zhen family as her own. Now she's asking us to lend her family grain."
"They just want to lend our lives to the Li family!"
Old Mrs. Li's words were serious, but they were also undeniable facts, and Li Zhenzhen wavered for a moment.
How should she choose between her parents' family and her husband's family?
The second son of the Zhen family had already lost all hope when his mother-in-law came to borrow grain. His disappointment in his wife had been growing, and he had long since given up on her.
Because he nodded in agreement with what Grandma Li said.
Li Zhenzhen was shocked by Li Lao Er's reaction and couldn't help but feel a deep sadness.
She misplaced her trust!
Waaaaah~
Why is she so unlucky? Her husband doesn't love her, and her mother-in-law is domineering and doesn't care about family ties at all.
She didn't want to divorce the second son of the Zhen family, and she never thought about leaving the Zhen family.
After marriage, all the women she knew envied her, so how could she bear to leave?
Li Zhenzhen felt more and more aggrieved. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zhen Wanwan sitting lazily on the ground, leaning against something that looked like a pillow.
She couldn't help but feel resentful. In the end, the reason why Old Lady Li didn't value her was because she wasn't her biological daughter!
Why is Zhen Wanwan so unfaithful and acts like nothing's wrong, staying at home all the time?
The Zhen family suddenly has an extra mouth to feed, and she can't even help her family back home!
"Waaaaah~ Mother, I will never divorce the second son! I'd rather die in the Zhen family!"
"Sigh, as long as you live a good life with your second son, I won't make things difficult for you. You should keep quiet about your family's affairs from now on."
Hearing her firm words, Old Lady Li felt somewhat relieved.
The second son's wife was biased towards Lao Zhen's family.
However, considering the Li family's situation, she hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
“If they really reach a dead end, we will not abandon your parents.”
Old Mrs. Li got angry again halfway through her sentence.
"When we left Lijia Village to escape the famine, we picked wild vegetables whenever we saw them on the way. The men who could hunt went hunting, just to support everyone to survive until the end."
"But how did your Li family do it? Your mother was tired and would lie down whenever she wanted to rest. The whole family relied on your sisters picking wild vegetables to survive, and the grain they saved for seed was used to cook porridge for your brothers."
"Tell me, is this something a human would do?"
Li Zhenzhen was only focused on wiping away her tears, and it was unclear whether she had listened to anything.
It's been half a month since Zhen Wanwan arrived here, and she's been living in a daze, not thinking about making any effort each day, just letting herself go.
While traveling, she would ride in a donkey cart and tell stories to several children, becoming the undisputed queen of the kids, who all adored her.
So now, apart from Li Zhenzhen, everyone in the Zhen family likes her.
Little did she know that she had inadvertently offended her second sister-in-law again.
Zhen Wanwan is in a rather awkward situation right now; her status as the sister-in-law makes it difficult for her to interfere in her family's affairs.
But……
If she were truly a married woman, she could simply wash her hands of her family's affairs.
But now she is pregnant out of wedlock, but she hasn't married yet, so the Zhen family is still her family, and she can't just abandon them.
As the younger sister-in-law, she was very self-aware.
She avoids interfering in her sister-in-law's affairs as much as possible, and she won't whisper anything in Old Lady Li's ear.
She didn't want to get herself into trouble for no reason.
After this incident, Zhen's family went to bed and rest after dinner.
Night falls quickly.
Zhen Wanwan couldn't sleep because of the rubbing on the ground; she had a rare bout of insomnia.
She tossed and turned, her eyelids drooping, just as she was about to fall asleep.
An accident occurred.
