When Qiao Guangming talked about his sister who had long been adopted by his third uncle, a proud smile appeared on his face.
This sister, whom he had never cared for, became a topic of conversation for Qiao Guangming to show off in front of his wife.
Seeing her husband's proud smile, Chen Xiaozhen wanted to poke his lungs and ask Qiao Guangming if he could get a share of Qiao Baozhu's earnings.
But she didn't say it because there was no need.
"Well, she's pretty good."
Qiao Guangming got his wife's approval and felt like continuing to talk. He happily moved closer to his wife, with a hint of excitement in his voice.
"Don't think that Qiao Xifeng is praising Zhao Haiyang so much. Let me tell you, her life is not as good as ours."
"Just let her brag at her parents' house for a few days. When Zhao Haiyang comes back, she will suffer the consequences."
It turned out that Qiao Guangming had seen the injustice his wife had suffered in the past few days, but he just didn't have the courage to argue with Qiao Xifeng. Seeing Qiao Xifeng yelling at him, he didn't dare to get angry or say anything.
Qiao Guangming knew the grievances in his wife's heart, and also understood the deep meaning of Chen Xiaozhen's words just now.
But he was too cowardly to make even the slightest resistance. He could only comfort himself and indulge himself in silence like an Ah Q.
Chen Xiaozhen looked at her husband's cowardly appearance and held back the tears in her eyes drop by drop.
"You still want to see her suffer? In the two years since I married you, I can't see anything else, but I can see that your mother's heart is with her."
"Whenever Qiao Xifeng suffers a little, your mother feels as if she is cutting her own flesh. Do you think we can just sit there and watch the drama while her own daughter suffers? Humph, you never know. All the anger will be directed at us."
Chen Xiaozhen secretly hated her husband for being as stupid as a donkey and her parents-in-law for favoring her younger brother-in-law Qiao Feilong.
She is the precious daughter of her parents-in-law. Even if she falls, her parents will protect her. Unlike them, they are not loved by their parents and are despised everywhere in this family.
Qiao Guangming smacked his head and thought about what his wife said, then slapped his forehead in sudden realization: "You're right! If she lives well, we won't benefit from it. If she gets into trouble, we'll have to suffer the consequences."
Last time, Qiao Xifeng spread superstitious ideas in the village and was punished by the committee to sweep toilets and carry manure.
If she made a mistake, the whole family would be embarrassed and she should have been scolded by her parents.
But after Qiao Xifeng shed a few tears and said a few nonsense, her parents were no longer angry but felt sorry for her.
My parents didn't dare to retaliate against the people in the committee, so they took their anger out on themselves.
Qiao Guangming felt angry when he thought about the time when he had to collect firewood for Qiao Xifeng who went to work and his wife had to help Qiao Xifeng wash clothes.
"What should we do then? No one will treat her?"
Qiao Guangming looked at his wife blankly.
"Guangming, how did you treat Sanya when you were a child? If you two have a good relationship, why don't we try to curry favor with her?"
Chen Xiaozhen rolled her eyes and spoke out the idea she had already thought of.
"Sanya?"
Qiao Guangming blurted out without thinking: "I have never hit her, and I have never bullied her."
As he said this, Qiao Guangming lowered his head in shame. As the eldest brother, he knew what kind of life San Ya lived at home.
But he himself could not protect himself. Although he was a son, he was stupid and inferior to Weiguo from his uncle's family in every way.
His parents were already angry when they saw him, and he didn't dare to take the initiative to get close to them.
"Just as long as you haven't bullied her."
Chen Xiaozhen was very happy when she heard that her husband had no conflicts with Qiao Baozhu.
"I'll have the paper box pasted up soon. Let's go to the site office together tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Qiao Guangming didn't understand what his wife meant. They were talking about San Ya, so why did they have to go to the field office again?
Chen Xiaozhen automatically blocked her husband's blank look and didn't explain it to him in detail. If she said too much, his peanut-sized brain wouldn't be able to figure it out.
"If you want to separate and live on your own, you can only rely on her."
Chen Xiaozhen couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart when she thought about what she overheard between her mother-in-law and sister-in-law last night.
Maybe she could use this incident to take credit for it from Qiao Baozhu. Who knows.
