Her mother was so upset that she almost lost her temper, but Lu Xiaofang didn't care.
Why did Luo Jun, an illiterate peasant from the countryside, follow her to the city? He was working in a shop, earning about 30 yuan a month, almost as much as her husband did in the factory.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. So now she came and insisted that Zhang Yulan give her an explanation.
Zhang Yulan's eyes were filled with disappointment. She said coldly, "You are lazy and don't know the difference between grains. You don't know how much you are capable of.
If you come, you will only hold everyone back. Just close the shop early and bring trouble to your in-laws, but don't come and bring trouble to me.
Do you really think I dare not hit you? If you don't say anything, then just pretend that I don't exist as your mother. I don't expect you to take care of me in my old age. I have two sons, so there is no shortage of people who can break pots.
Don't hang around in front of me. I get annoyed when I see you. Go and serve your mother-in-law. She is your real mother. She is counting on you and Feng Chen.
Your mother is now well-off, so why would I need a daughter like you? Aren’t my nephews and nieces more filial than you?
In front of everyone, it can be said that no face was given at all.
Lu Xiaomin's face turned pale and blue. She gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "Zhang Yulan, you can't stand me? Then why did you give birth to me? You might as well drown me.
I won't come again, just wait for your regret, and you'll have to beg me someday."
After she finished speaking, she turned and ran. Lu Xiaofang shouted, "Xiao Min, you...!"
Lu Xiaomin didn't give her a chance to speak, but Zhang Yulan got angry instead.
Lu Jiandang had a gloomy face. They say that a good son is born under the stick, and he thought Lu Xiaomin deserved a beating.
He roared angrily, "If you come again, I'll break your legs."
No matter how important children are, can they be more important than your spouse? He supported Zhang Yulan and said earnestly, "Old Zhang, don't think about it. Let your anger out. Don't keep it in your heart. If you keep it in your heart, something bad will happen. What do you want me to do?
You are the big boss now, and she is just jealous. She says the grapes are sour because she can't eat them. She deliberately provokes you and wants to make you sick. That heartless person is not afraid of being struck by lightning.
She deserves to have a miserable life in her husband's family. She is so selfish, who can confide in her? "
Zhang Yulan took a deep breath, calmed herself, and said calmly, "I'm not angry. I'll go back and pack my luggage first. I don't have time to argue with her. She's just incompetent and furious. She can't bear to see me having a good life."
It is said that people in the village hate those who have more and laugh at those who don’t. My family is the same. I want you to live a good life, but I am also afraid that you will live too well.
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s talk about the near future. Do you think Lu Xiaomin wants to see Lu Xiaofang living a good life?
She had been able to keep her composure before, but when she heard that Lu Xiaofang had gone into the city, she couldn't sit still anymore.
In the past, she felt that she was a cultured person, superior to others, and she married a city man who ate commercial grain.
All her children were registered as city residents, but what about Lu Xiaofang? She hadn't finished her studies when she married a man who lived in the mountains and had several brothers.
The large population and the lack of food are in stark contrast to her, yet she is still complacent about it.
Now that her position has changed, she is broken down. It's because she is afraid that Lu Xiaofang will step on her head and bully her. How can a person be so narrow-minded?
Before leaving, Zhang Yulan was still admonishing, "Next time she comes, you should use a broom to beat her out. Don't let her get close to the kitchen. She has bad intentions. Who knows what bad ideas she has in mind?"
If I put pesticides in there and harmed my customers, my reputation would be ruined and I would have to go back to my hometown to farm.
Lu Xiaofang knew the seriousness of the matter, and she said seriously: "Mom, don't worry, I won't let her get close to the kitchen."
Zhang Yulan patted her shoulder and said, "Good girl, I'll go back now. You're such an irritating girl."
It's impossible to say that I'm not sad. After all, she carried me for ten months and gave birth to me.
Lu Xiaomin is the one who hurts her the most.
Lu Xiaofang comforted: "Mom, don't take Xiaomin's words to heart. She is furious and speaks without thinking. Wait until she calms down and let her apologize to you. She is really too rude and is getting worse as she gets older."
It wasn’t like this before. After moving to the city, he became a different person. How could he talk to his parents like this?
Zhang Yulan had a blank expression on her face. "Don't mention her to me. There's nothing much to say. If I can't figure it out, I'll be in trouble in the future."
After saying that, she strode away. When Lu Xiaomin returned home, Feng Yuan was sitting there waiting for food.
Seeing that she had nothing in her hands, his face immediately darkened and he said rudely, "What's wrong with you? I asked you to go and play Bobo Chicken, but where is the Bobo Chicken you played? Did they chase you out?"
Aren't you her daughter? You can't even say a nice word. How could my brother fall for someone as stupid as you? "
Feng Yuan wore a light white plaid blouse with a headband in her hair. At home, she looked like a complete bohemian.
When she stands, Lu Xiaomin cannot sit. She is the nanny of the family.
Feng's mother said sarcastically, "She's married into my Feng family, and she's still planning for your Lu family. If you give her a few strings, she won't die of poverty, right? Why did she move to the city? She's still so stingy."
As for the job, what did your mother say? Isn't she going to the provincial capital? I'll give you this shop and let Xiaoyuan help you out. I'll pay her 180-200 yuan."
It's easy to say, it's only one or two hundred yuan. Now the salary of a first-level worker is only eighty or ninety yuan.
She saw that the Lu family's business was so prosperous, so she asked for help. She thought her daughter was capable, so how could she fail the exam?
Do you still have to rely on marrying a man to cross the class barrier?
Isn't this a typical example of having high aspirations but a fragile life? If you don't have the right tools, you're still trying to make porcelain.
Lu Xiaomin lowered her head and whispered, "I don't have a job, and my mother doesn't let me get involved in the store."
Hearing this, the two people in the room looked at her. Even Feng Chen, who was eating noodles, couldn't help but curse, "You are such a loser! Can't you even ask for help? It's all your fault for being so outspoken and saying harsh things that you offended people."
Now, your parents are unwilling to go with you, and we have no food to eat. You are really the sinner of this family. The whole family spends only my salary.
I don't even have money to go out drinking and playing cards with my brothers. Others marry wives so that they can help themselves. I am so unlucky if I marry you. Are you unlucky for me?
Or, you didn't take what I said to heart, and you were pretending to obey us but secretly disobeying us, fearing that we would take advantage of your Lu family. You are an ungrateful person who can never be tamed. I think we should just get a divorce and leave the house with nothing.
It also saves me from being an eyesore at home. You're in your twenties, and you don't even bother to dress up. You're just like a fifty or sixty-year-old woman with a yellow face. The sight of you makes me sick."
Hearing these hurtful words, Lu Xiaomin's eyes turned red and she almost couldn't help crying.
She wiped her eyes and said pitifully, "Hubby, it's not like that. Let me explain."
