Zhang Meixiang followed behind and shouted, but Chen Feng did not even turn around. Instead, Chen Sipeng scolded her: "What are you shouting for?"
Zhang Meixiang snorted coldly: "I want you to take care of it. Xiao Feng is not the child you are used to."
When they were young, the husband worked outside and the wife worked inside, and they got along very well. But in their old age, they still had constant conflicts when they were together every day. They were not as good as Chen Yun and Liu Qiao, who were together every day and got along better and better.
This is when the daughter's role came into play. Chen Yun gave a few words of advice to both sides. Zhang Meixiang went to the kitchen to cook. Chen Sipeng pulled Chen Yun and Liu Qiao and said, "Don't blame Jiang Jing and Xiao Feng. This is just a fight between the father-in-law and mother-in-law. Jiang Jing was afraid that her mother would be beaten by her father, so she went back to mediate. Xiao Feng told me about this, but I didn't tell your mother because I was afraid that your mother would have some thoughts."
Zhang Meixiang is a good person in other aspects, except that she might make a fuss. If she makes this ugly thing known, the good relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be broken.
Chen Yun was incredulous: "Then this kind of thing doesn't happen often, does it?"
At this point, Chen Sipeng began to look down on this relative-in-law who claimed to be a cultured man. Nowadays, cases of wife beating are much less common in the countryside, but this cultured man showed it to the fullest extent.
"Of course not. He also knows not to hit people in the face. People outside won't tell anything if they can't see it." To be honest, Chen Sipeng was also blaming Liu Lu in his heart. Since she knew Jiang Jing's background, why didn't she tell them clearly in advance? It's just that he is a businessman and a smooth person. Besides, they still need Liao Ping's care for their business in Jiangcheng, so he has to consider his face.
Besides, Jiang Jing, the daughter-in-law, is pretty good at home except for her troublesome parents, so he didn't say much.
Liu Qiao glanced at Chen Yun, and it was obvious that since this was the Jiang family's shame, she should just stay out of it.
When Zhang Meixiang's dish was served, Chen Feng also came back with Jiang Jing. Everyone pretended not to know, even Zhang Meixiang smiled and greeted them. Jiang Jing smiled and apologized, and Chen Yun understood and said, "Come and have dinner, we are all family, don't play those fake tricks."
There was harmony at the table. Liu Qiao was a very worldly-wise person and naturally knew what to say to whom.
Chen Yun wanted to go back to Liu Qiao's place to sleep that night, but her parents forced her to stay: "It's been a long time since anyone has lived in Liu Qiao's house. You will have to spend a long time cleaning it when you go back. There will be nothing there. It would be better to stay at home. We have a car at home. You can drive wherever you want to go tomorrow."
Thinking about it, Chen Yun did not insist.
Zhang Meixiang was well prepared. They had a large room on the second floor with a bathroom and everything. Zirui lived next to them. When Chen Yun came out of the shower, Liu Qiao was not there.
She didn't expect that it was Chen Feng who called him over.
In Chen Feng's mind, although his sister was not bad, she was too emotional and not as thorough as Liu Qiao. He told him about his wife's family, "Jingjing's parents are more shameless than anyone else. Her mother was beaten by her father so badly that she couldn't get out of bed, but she still refused to divorce. When we left, her father was applying medicine to her mother, and she had returned to her old ways. If you say something bad about her father, her mother will start to quarrel with you."
Liu Qiao felt a headache after hearing this: "Then outsiders can't do anything about it."
"Yes, brother-in-law, didn't I come to find you? You know more than me, and you're more powerful. What do you think we should do? If they continue like this, their family won't live well, and my mother will have something to say about Jingjing sooner or later." His mother is also a powerful person. Now that Jiang Jing is the new daughter-in-law and a nice person, she can still tolerate it. If this continues, his mother will explode sooner or later.
If his mother exploded and Jiang Jing was unable to take care of herself, he would also suffer as a result. It would be better for him to take advantage of his brother-in-law's return and ask him for help.
Liu Qiao joked, "What else can we do? Just give him a beating and he will behave himself. If the fists don't land on him, he will just vent his anger on himself."
To be honest, Liu Qiao also looked down on men who beat their wives. He believed that a man who vented his dissatisfaction by beating his wife was nothing more than a coward at best.
Chen Feng thought about it seriously: "Brother-in-law, how can we find someone?"
Liu Qiao tried to stop him, saying, "Don't really hit anyone. Jiang Jing won't blame you if you accidentally get hurt. And your mother-in-law is a husband slave. She just accepts everything that happens to her. Why are you helping her?" At his age, he knew very well what to avoid, just like the last time with Jiang Gui'an. If he hadn't gone there with the intention of making friends that day, he wouldn't have been framed.
The older you get, the lonelier you become. It's not that you have less contact, but you have to automatically avoid things that you think are dangerous. At Liu Qiao's age, in a high position, you will understand what it means to be lonely at the top. Fortunately, Chen Yun has always been with him and never left him, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to make it.
Chen Feng scratched his hair and said, "You're right. I don't understand it either. She was beaten like that, and we said a few words to my father-in-law, but she scolded us instead. If you have the ability, don't call when you're being beaten. Jingjing and I couldn't bear to see her being beaten like that."
Liu Qiao patted his shoulder and said, "The most effective way for you is to persuade your mother-in-law. She is stubborn and no matter how others help her, it will be useless."
Since Liu Qiao couldn't help, Chen Feng felt there was no hope. But making Jiang Jing, a married woman, go back to her parents' home every day and even lie to his mother was not a long-term solution!
Jiang Jing just brought out some foot-washing water and put it under his feet. Seeing his frown, she knew something was wrong: "What did my brother-in-law say?"
Of course she knew that she couldn't do it on her own, and her husband also found out about this incident by accident. If it weren't for her husband, her mother would have been beaten more severely. But the person who lived with her father was still her mother. As the saying goes, distant water cannot quench a nearby fire. She also knew that her mother-in-law had complaints about her, but she would not sit idly by if she was asked to give up saving her mother.
"My brother-in-law can't help, and he's right. No matter what we do, your mother has to figure it out herself, otherwise it will be useless no matter how much we help."
Jiang Jing also sat on the bed and soaked her feet with him. She wiped her face and became a little worried: "Do you think Mom will be angry with me today?" Her elder sister-in-law had finally come back, but she took advantage of the opportunity to run away. It seemed that she was really disrespectful to her. She was afraid that Zhang Meixiang would scold her.
Chen Feng said: "My sister is open-minded and can persuade my mother, but this is not a long-term solution. I still think we should find a way to stop it. Who knows, my mother-in-law might be beaten to death one day?"
