Seeing that Old Lady Wang and Old Lady Song were fighting, the other members of the Zhao family were also woken up.
Old Mrs. Wang is over sixty years old, while Old Mrs. Song is only fifty-three. She is stronger than Old Mrs. Wang, and Old Mrs. Wang is losing ground.
"Come and save me if you have talent."
Zhao Youcai endured the pain in his body and prepared to leave when he heard Old Lady Song shouting:
"Come and see, Zhao Youcai beat up his mother-in-law."
Zhao Youcai quickly raised his hands and loudly defended himself: "I didn't hit you, I didn't even touch you."
If the news of beating his mother-in-law gets out, his already shaky job will be even more difficult.
He looked at Zhao Xingjia and Zhao Xingye standing beside him and said, "Go and save your grandma."
Zhao Xingjia didn't want to get involved in this mess: "My workplace is far away, and Mom said yesterday that she won't let me ride my bike anymore. I have to leave now."
Zhao Xingye was very angry when he saw the second son running away, but he had just started working. What if he offended Old Lady Song and Old Lady Song made trouble for him at work? After all, she was not his biological grandmother and did not love him at all.
"I'll go call for help."
The neighbors gathered around, but no one came forward to stop the fight. The main reason was that Old Lady Wang had been a bad person in the compound before. She would make trouble even when she was not right, and would be even more unforgiving when she was right.
If I start a fight now, what if Old Lady Wang starts blackmailing me?
A few years ago, Aunt Li kindly helped Old Lady Wang collect clothes on a rainy day. Old Lady Wang insisted that Aunt Li had taken two dollars from her clothes and asked Aunt Li to compensate her. If she didn't, she would make a scene at Aunt Li's house.
In the end, Uncle Li couldn't bear it anymore and gave the money to Old Lady Wang.
Aunt Li then became sworn enemies with Old Lady Wang, and she complained about her grievances everywhere.
Finally, it was Sister Sun, an officer from the Street Office, who came and stopped the two.
Old Lady Wang came up to Sister Sun crying and showed her her wounds:
"This bitch beat me up for half an hour. Look at how she slapped me in the face and pinched me. I've lost so much hair. I need to go to the hospital and ask her to compensate me."
While Old Lady Wang was talking, Old Lady Song took out a hemp rope from her pocket, took a stool, and started to put it on the beam.
Just as Sister Sun was about to say that Old Lady Song was wrong to hit someone, she heard Ma Xiulan yell:
"mom!"
She turned around and saw that Old Lady Song was standing on a stool and starting to tie the hemp rope. Ma Xiulan was holding Old Lady Song's thigh to stop her, so she also quickly hugged Old Lady Song's thigh:
"Auntie, please don't be upset. Let's discuss it properly."
Old Lady Song just refused to come down, her hands kept moving, her voice was mournful:
"My daughter married into the Zhao family and has been raising the whole family by herself. It's tiring and hard work, but this old hag pretended to be paralyzed for ten years and asked my daughter to take care of her.
I came over to comfort my daughter, but I didn't expect to see this old hag hitting her. How could I, as a mother, bear to see my daughter being beaten by her mother-in-law right in front of me?"
I saw that Old Mrs. Song was about to stretch her neck inside.
Sister Sun was anxious: "This is your daughter's mother-in-law's fault. I asked her to apologize to you. Please don't do anything stupid, okay?"
Old Mrs. Wang didn't expect that after being beaten to the point of being almost broken, she still had to apologize to her damn stepmother Ma Xiu Lan.
"I did nothing wrong, why should I apologize?"
Old Mrs. Song tied the hemp rope with tears in her eyes:
"Her attitude makes my heart ache. Either my daughter gets a divorce, or Old Lady Wang compensates me ten dollars."
The reason why Old Lady Song brought up the condition of divorce now was because on the way here, Zhao Xingmin, that girl, told her privately that if she supported Ma Xiulan and got a divorce, she would give her ten yuan after she received her salary.
Now Old Mrs. Song wants to make some of the ten dollars as well.
If they don't divorce, compensation is fine, since she won't suffer any loss anyway.
When Zhao Youcai heard about divorce, he quickly winked at Old Lady Wang and told her that they couldn't get divorced. If they did, Ma Xiu Lan would join forces with Director He of the factory to deduct his salary.
Old Lady Wang was unhappy when she heard this: "She just wants to cheat money. She is just Ma Xiulan's stepmother, not because she loves Ma Xiulan."
She had already found out everything before marrying Ma Xiu Lan.
He is not loved by his biological father and is not cared for by his stepmother. He grew up in hardship and hardship. He is good at taking care of his younger siblings, is efficient at work, and has a dull temperament. He meets her standards of a good-for-nothing, so she is willing to force her daughters to pay a high price for him to be brought home.
Old Mrs. Song cried aggrievedly: "Isn't my stepmother my mother? I don't feel sorry for my own daughter, but do you? Didn't your child borrow money for his wedding from my family?"
It is definitely impossible for Old Mrs. Song to lend money to Ma Xiu Lan. It was Ma Xiu Lan's younger brother Ma Mingqiang who borrowed the money.
But outsiders didn't know and thought that Old Lady Song was angry about her daughter.
Seeing that Old Lady Song tried to kick off the stool, Sister Sun and Ma Xiu Lan each hugged Old Lady Wang's thigh.
Sister Sun turned her head and looked at Mrs. Wang: "Don't add fuel to the fire. Apologize and give the money to your in-laws."
"Hurry up, or someone will die and you will all be held responsible."
Zhao Youcai poked Old Lady Wang. If Old Lady Song hanged herself in his house, it would definitely affect his work.
Old Mrs. Wang took out the handkerchief wrapped in money from the pocket inside her clothes with a frustrated look. After opening it layer by layer, she revealed more than ten yuan.
Aunt Li said sarcastically, "You made your mother-in-law so angry that she hanged herself. Ten dollars in compensation is not enough!"
As he said that, he snatched the money and stuffed it into Old Lady Song's hand.
Old Mrs. Song didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise. This old sister is such a good person.
Seeing this, Sister Sun didn't say anything and helped the person down first.
Seeing that Old Lady Song had calmed down, Sister Sun began to criticize and educate her, saying that harmony is the most important thing in a family, and that being able to become relatives is fate, and they should not fight or be depressed.
