"Oh dear, what happened?"
Wang Ailing immediately saw the commotion starting in the house across the street. She immediately shouted.
His shout drew a lot of attention from the neighbors. They saw that Old Li's family was fighting again.
Everyone rushed over to ask what had happened.
"Ye Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you all day? Let Yangzi go right now."
Liu Juan didn't expect the two to actually fight. She thought that Ye Xiaoxiao was about to give birth at any time, so there was no way she would cause any more trouble.
Even if I had to suffer some indignity, I had to endure it myself. I never expected Ye Xiaoxiao to be so ruthless.
"Get out of my way. Call my father out. I want things to get cleared up today. If this isn't cleared up today, I'm getting a divorce. I won't have this child anymore. I'll fight to the death and make sure your Li family can't find wives in the future."
"What on earth is going on now?"
Li Jianguo was already upset when he heard his wife say that she needed to eat eggs during her postpartum period, and then he saw them arguing again.
"Dad, I'm just asking you, is it okay for me to eat five eggs a day and three old hens a month during my postpartum confinement?"
If this matter isn't resolved today, we'll be splitting up and moving out.
Ye Xiaoxiao held onto Li Chenyang's hand tightly, refusing to let go. No matter how hard Li Chenyang tried, he couldn't pull her away. He experienced his wife's immense strength once again.
"you……"
Li Jianguo wanted to relocate the people, but where would he get the money to build houses for them?
Thinking of this, she still glared at Liu Juan.
"Stop joking around. You're pregnant, are you going to kill the chicken for me if I give you the eggs?"
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, your dad has already agreed to it, so don't make a fuss with them."
Grandma Zhang came over. She was the most senior person here; even Li Jianguo called her "Auntie."
“Jianguo, your family should stop bullying your daughter-in-law.”
"No, Aunt Zhang, I really didn't bully her. It's just that she's always causing trouble!" Liu Juan quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
“If she hadn’t been bullied, why would her daughter-in-law act like this?” Wang Ailing loved watching a spectacle, especially Liu Juan’s.
“Dad, when we got married, you said you would separate us from the family this year, but now we don’t have a penny to our name. I don’t care, we have to get a share of the family income from now on.”
Ye Xiaoxiao just wants money and a division of the family property.
Li Jianguo said that, but no matter what, the priority was to use the money to get his third son a wife.
If we work for another year, it would be good to let the eldest and third sons be separated.
But you need to have something in your hands. How can you divide things if you have nothing?
"Xiaoxiao, if you wait another six months, you'll definitely break up in another six months."
We'll build you two more rooms then, you have nothing now, so even if you get distributed housing, where will you go?"
Li Jianguo thought he should let his daughter-in-law give birth to the child first. Once she was busy taking care of the baby, what could she possibly cause trouble for?
"I don't believe it. This is just another attempt to fool people. We need to get a straight answer today. Even if we can't divide it up, we need to get a share that belongs to our family."
This is going to be used for my third son's wedding, then for my fourth son's wedding, and it's dragging me on like this. When will it ever end?
Seeing that Li Chenyang was still trying to pry his hand off, Ye Xiaoxiao slapped Li Chenyang on the back, the sound loud and clear.
"Every family goes through this, Xiaoxiao, don't do this, let it go."
Seeing the commotion at her eldest brother's house, with so many people watching, her second aunt, Sun Xiuxiu, was also worried for them.
Li Chenyang was beaten again. He never knew he was so afraid of pain. His wife had hit him before.
But it didn't hurt this much before, so why are you hitting him so hard now? His back is burning.
"Ye Xiaoxiao, don't go too far. We really don't have any extra money to give away right now."
You know how the younger ones are; you older ones should also take some responsibility.
She really abandoned her own brother.
Li Jianguo was unwilling. They didn't have much income to begin with, and given their current circumstances, even if they managed to get a wife for their third son during the New Year...
Work for another two years so that the fourth son can get married.
The fifth child is still young this year, so the family can afford to wait a few more years before dividing the family property.
"No need, I don't want you to take care of us, Dad. I want what belongs to us to be divided up. When the time comes, we will separate the family and build the house ourselves."
What's wrong with that? I think it's fair. Can't we rely on ourselves?
[Host, you'll miss out on a lot of rewards if you split up too early!] The system reminded Ye Xiaoxiao.
[Don't worry about it, this family won't get a share, no matter how much I make a scene. But I'll try to fight for it.]
Ye Xiaoxiao knew she couldn't separate the family, but she was determined to make a scene. If she didn't, her mother-in-law, Liu Juan, would dare to mistreat her during her postpartum period.
"It's not that your father doesn't agree, it's just that there's no other way."
Xiaoxiao, give us some more time, two years at most. By then, Dad will have built houses for you and the third child.
Wouldn't it be better to have a place to live then?
Even Wang Ailing, who loves watching the drama unfold, spoke up to advise Ye Xiaoxiao.
“Xiaoxiao, your parents have it tough too. You have a lot of children, and one or two of them will be growing up and getting married soon. Everyone only has so little income. Listen to your aunt, wait two more years.”
In fact, every family is in a similar situation; everyone has several sons.
Some are getting married, some are getting married; daughters are a little better off, but having many sons is really tough.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, there's nothing we can do about it. Wait two more years, and then your dad and the others will build you a house."
"It's not too late to separate later. Look at you now, you could give birth at any time. Don't get angry anymore, it's bad for your health."
Grandma Zhang took tiny, quick steps to Ye Xiaoxiao's side.
Only then did Ye Xiaoxiao's tears come out.
"Grandma Zhang, it's not that I'm making a fuss, it's just that I'm about to give birth."
I asked my mom for a few eggs to eat during my postpartum period, but she refused. What can I do?
They're just taking advantage of the fact that my family lives far away and that I'm all alone. She refused, so I offered to teach Li Chenyang.
If they're too busy, I'll have Li Chenyang make it for me. Even then, my mom will give me the cold shoulder, so it'll be easier for me.
As Ye Xiaoxiao spoke, she grabbed Li Chenyang's face and slapped him across the face.
Everyone watching felt a jolt of surprise; the blow had instantly turned their faces red and swollen. The blow had been delivered with real force.
"Ah, Ye Xiaoxiao, stop hitting me! Don't you know it hurts when you hit me?!"
Li Chenyang was already feeling a little soft-hearted when he saw his wife crying, but unexpectedly he was slapped again.
He was on the back a moment ago, but now it's directly on his face. All the brothers he grew up with, gathered around the door, are laughing at him.
"Why would I hit you if it doesn't hurt? Are you even a man? I'm asking you this: I don't want to trouble my mother-in-law during my postpartum period. The child is yours, are you going to take care of it or not?"
