Ma Xiu Lan became excited thinking about how much trouble her stepmother would cause Zhao Youcai if she gave her some money.
"Xingmin, go now, ride your bike, and pick up your grandmother and your youngest cousin. Tell them we'll treat them to delicious food and drinks."
Zhao Xingjia was unhappy: "That's my bicycle."
Ma Xiulan made the decision: "I bought it, I'm not giving it to you now."
This was the only bicycle in our family. At that time, my second son was weak and had fainted several times from heatstroke while walking to work in the summer. I felt sorry for him, so I bought him a bicycle for 60 yuan in the second-hand market.
Zhao Xingjia was worried when he thought about the long distance without a bicycle. He complained: "You gave it to me, and I can't take it back."
Of course, when Ma Xiulan was preparing for the divorce settlement, she took away all the things she had bought with her own money.
When Zhao Youcai saw Zhao Xingmin really get up and leave, he quickly scolded him, "Third brother, you are not allowed to go!"
As he was about to pull Zhao Xingmin, he was pushed away by Ma Xiu Lan's elbow.
Zhao Xingmin left quickly.
Zhao Youcai was pushed by Ma Xiu Lan to go to the kitchen to clean up. Zhao Youcai was worried about Ma Xiu Lan's current appearance and the stepmother and nephew who were about to come.
Then he was awakened by Ma Xiulan with a stick.
"Don't you turn off the stove after cooking? You watched the stove go out, wasting honeycomb coal."
Zhao Youcai endured for so long: "I will fight you, you shrew."
Ma Xiulan picked up the kitchen knife and said fearlessly, "Come on, let's see who survives to the end!"
Zhao Youcai retreated in fear and hid in a corner.
Ma Xiulan is crazy, so she should just agree to the divorce.
But thinking that after paying 1,800 yuan, he would have more than 3,000 yuan, he gritted his teeth and held on a little longer.
At least wait until I get here.
- Zhao Youfu's home -
Old Mrs. Wang originally thought that her daughters would all come over at noon as soon as they heard Zhao Youfu calling, so that they could all rush back to the compound. However, she did not expect that the three daughters would not arrive until sunset.
Her face was unhappy: "Your mother has been bullied to death. Are you here so late to attend the funeral?"
Sister Zhao quickly handed the egg cake in her hand to Old Lady Wang:
"How could that be possible? I just want to see my three grandchildren and they can't leave. The rest of the family is out for something today."
Zhao Erjie and Zhao Sanjie hurriedly followed the eldest brother's steps and handed over the things they bought for Old Lady Wang.
When they were young, they took care of Zhao Youcai. At that time, they were young and able to work, and their children were also young.
He helped Zhao Youcai pay the betrothal money for marrying two wives and the money for finding a job.
Unexpectedly, after taking care of Zhao Youcai, another brother, Zhao Youfu, who was younger than their children, came.
If they took care of Zhao Youfu, their own children would be short of food and clothing. The children were too young to speak and started to make trouble when they were in their teens. Now the children are in their twenties and they all have strong opinions about their support for their younger brother.
Every time Old Lady Wang asked them to come, they would be scolded by their children when they got home.
So when Zhao Youfu came to report the news, after they inquired around, they all wanted to come later.
I wish the other sisters had resolved this matter earlier.
Everyone had the same idea and eventually came to a consensus.
Zhao Youfu asked the sisters for a few dollars and continued playing cards. He won and lost, and finally owed dozens of dollars. He came back only when he was too sleepy.
Old Mrs. Wang instructed her daughter and Zhao Youfu to pack her things and return to the machinery factory compound.
Zhao Youfu stared at the pillow that Old Lady Wang was holding in her arms:
"Mom, you've only been here for two days, and you're leaving now. I can't bear to see you go. Please stay a few more days."
Old Lady Wang laughed so hard she couldn't stop:
"You're the only one who doesn't find me annoying. But I feel bad for you two young people. I'll let your sister-in-law take care of me when I get home."
The main reason is that Zhao Youfu has been married for such a long time but still has no children, which is a concern for Old Lady Wang.
She wanted to see her youngest son, but she was afraid that staying would delay the couple from having children.
Zhao Youfu pulled Old Lady Wang's arm and said, "No, I just want Mom to stay with me for a while longer."
The three daughters also began to persuade Mrs. Wang that she could enjoy the blessing of her youngest son.
Wang Qiuju didn't want Old Lady Wang to stay, but since her husband had asked, there must be a reason, especially since her three elder sisters-in-law were there too.
So they tried to keep him.
Seeing that everyone was so filial, Old Lady Wang agreed.
He told his three daughters, "Then you three go find Ma Xiulan and ask her to come and take me back personally and kowtow to me and apologize."
Zhao Yindi and her two sisters quickly agreed. Mom would never give up if she couldn't do what she asked.
They also knew that Old Lady Wang was pretending to be paralyzed, but Old Lady Wang was happy about it and didn't let them say anything. Now, even if Ma Xiu Lan found out, Old Lady Wang was her mother-in-law, and Ma Xiu Lan couldn't beat her and would drive her away.
Zhao Yindi and her two sisters walked towards the Zhao family angrily.
When the three sisters arrived at Zhao's house, they were stunned. Zhao Youcai was wearing an apron and cooking dinner, and Ma Xiu Lan was sitting in the living room eating melon seeds.
Several children sat in a row, making firewood boxes in a row.
The second brother and his wife had dark faces, the fourth brother frowned, his wife looked around, and the fifth brother Xingfeng's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and his hands were motionless.
Zhao Xingfeng didn't expect that his mother not only didn't coax him to eat, but also called him to get up and work.
When Zhao Youcai saw his three sisters, it was like seeing a savior.
"Eldest sister, second sister, third sister!"
After saying this, tears began to flow unconsciously.
In the impression of the Zhao sisters, Zhao Youcai never cried from childhood to adulthood, except when he divorced Li Shulan. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot of injustice.
