But that so-called cousin just now jumped right onto Mother Huo's face.
But Huo's mother didn't say anything, and instead spent a long time explaining to her in a kind and gentle manner.
That's very strange.
When her granddaughter-in-law asked about it, Grandma Huo didn't hide anything and told her all the grudges and grievances between her mother and her cousin.
"You've already met Xiaozhou's older brother. He was born in 1936, a time when China was facing internal and external troubles."
“Your grandfather and father were active in the Sichuan-Guizhou base area at the time. Not long after your mother gave birth in Yanshi, she also started to fight guerrilla warfare with the army.”
“Your older brother was less than a month and a half old at that time. Given the circumstances, your mother couldn’t take him with her, so she had to entrust him to your aunt and uncle.”
"They fought this battle for several years. By the time your parents returned to Beijing, your older brother was already seven years old."

"Once, when their period came suddenly, they didn't have time to run away and lost their child."
“That child is only two months younger than Tingtao and is the only son of the Yang family.”
"Although your cousin and her family had three more children later, they were all girls."
"Because of this, your aunt's in-laws have caused her a lot of trouble."
"Your parents also feel guilty about this, so they have been trying to make it up to your cousin's family all these years."
"Fortunately, the man she found is loyal and righteous. He hasn't uttered a single complaint over the years and treats your older brother as his own son."
Hearing this, Jiang Si couldn't help but sigh.
A human life lies between the two families; for this reason alone, the mother-in-law will always be inferior to her cousin.
