"Husband," Sister-in-law Huang tried to continue pleading for her son, "Dashan..."
Huang Shi ignored her, carried his son into the room, and then pulled her out the door.
“It’s all because we’ve been too good to him that he’s become more and more unruly. Let’s leave him alone for now and let him experience some hardship so he’ll know when to back down.”
"real?"
"Um."
Where do we go now?
"I'm worried about Dad, I'll go look for him again."
"Where can we find someone?" Sister Huang was still very worried about her son. "If he goes too far, there will be no one to take care of him in the mountains."
"It's good that no one's taking care of him," Huang Shi said impatiently. "We've taken too good care of him, which is why he's become like this. He's not self-disciplined and yet he blames this and that. Who owes him anything?"
"How can you say that?" Sister-in-law Huang said unhappily. "If it weren't for that vixen seducing him, he wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
"They only agreed; they didn't force him to do it!"
"you……"
Sister-in-law Huang was so angry that her chest ached, but she didn't know how to refute him.
Although I don't want to admit it, it really takes two to tango.
Immediately, she blushed, turned her head away, and stopped talking to people.
Huang Shi didn't care. He already knew his wife's personality and didn't have any hope. He just kept his head down and kept going.
The further I walked, the more familiar the road became.
"Master," Sister-in-law Huang asked incredulously, "are you going to find those people from the second wife's family again?"
"You have a problem with that?"
Huang Shi's voice was muffled; worried about his father, he didn't really want to talk to his wife.
"You've already forgotten how you kicked our family out last time? Are you just asking to be treated like this?"
“We don’t know where Dad is right now,” he said, suppressing his frustration as he patiently explained, knowing his wife was upset. “The only thing we can do is go there and ask. They’ll definitely know.”
This is the difference between having power and not having it.
They couldn't get the information they asked even after talking themselves hoarse, but these people could get it from others with just a wave of their hand, and countless others would rush to report it.
“But,” Sister-in-law Huang said reluctantly, “those people have long since stopped taking us seriously. Going there is no use; they certainly won’t tell us where Dad is.”
“It’s alright,” Huang Shi shook his head, “As long as Dad is safe.”
As long as no one is hurt, everything else is secondary; we can take our time to find them.
Moreover, it's not a good time to bring them back now.
“Then there’s even less need,” Sister-in-law Huang offered her opinion. “Dad is a grown man, he’s sure nothing will happen to him. We’ll just be wasting our time going there. There’s no need to offer ourselves up to be trampled on.”
"No, they're not that kind of people. Besides, they still have their mother."
Last time, they didn't say anything at first, it was just their own family...
Thinking about this, Huang Shi felt extremely depressed. What had he become all these years?
He failed to educate his son, discipline his wife, and show no respect to his parents. All the money he has now comes from charity. He has failed in every aspect of his life.
"Husband," Sister-in-law Huang disagreed, "how can you not understand? They've changed a long time ago. Whether it's Mother or Yaya, after they've become rich and powerful, they don't want to acknowledge us poor relatives anymore."
"If you don't acknowledge it, why were you allowed in last time?"
"That was their way of humiliating us," Sister-in-law Huang said, still indignant as she recalled the incident. "So what if they have a few stinking coins? They don't even care about blood ties. All those years of taking care of them have been wasted on them. It's all for nothing..."
“Shut up,” Huang Shi couldn’t stand it anymore. “Can’t you have any conscience when you say that?”
“Where did they not have a conscience?” Sister-in-law Huang protested. “Didn’t they kick us out? Didn’t they look down on our Dachuan? The thought of them treating us like flies makes me uncomfortable.”
"Otherwise what? How are you supposed to treat them?" Huang Shi was amused by her words. "Treat them like Bodhisattvas?"
“No,” Sister-in-law Huang heard the dissatisfaction in her husband’s tone and quickly shook her head, “I just feel that they don’t treat us like family.”
"Are you sure?" Huang Shi sneered. "Take a look at the clothes you're wearing. Have you forgotten who gave you the fabric?"
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Huang was stunned.
"It used to be really good, but now..." It's really disheartening.
Sister-in-law Huang didn't dare say the second half of the sentence, feeling that her husband would laugh at her if she did.
She could vaguely sense from his words that her husband was very dissatisfied with her.
This made her feel very uncomfortable, but it also made her subconsciously become more compliant.
“You know what happened before,” Huang Shi shook his head, “We all made our own way. They did nothing wrong to us. If they did, it was us who wronged them. Don’t say such hurtful things anymore.”
“How is that mean?” Sister-in-law Huang said dismissively. “Which part of it isn’t the truth? If they had any regard for blood ties, they wouldn’t have chased me away time and time again, let alone abandoned our mountain home.”
Mrs. Huang still feels ashamed to this day after being humiliated and kicked out every time.
She lived most of her life in luxury after getting married, and everyone treated her with respect. However, she suffered repeated setbacks and was always chased away by her own siblings.
"Why don't you think about what you've done?" Huang Shi felt his wife was being unreasonable. "You can even curse people to their faces, how do you expect others to treat you well? To provide you with the best food and drink, and have maids and servants wait on you?"
To start daydreaming in broad daylight, what kind of wonderful things are you thinking about?
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Huang was speechless for a long time, unable to explain herself.
Finally, he stammered in defense, "Dashan is still a child. Why should we, as elders, argue with a child?"
puff!
Huang Shi couldn't help but laugh.
Then, he looked at his wife with a strange expression. "Twenty-four years old and still called a child? Aren't Huang Chuan and the others babies? Shouldn't you, as the elder, be more understanding?"
These words left Sister-in-law Huang speechless.
Then, she was furious and embarrassed, saying, "Honey, Dashan is your son, why do you always side with outsiders?"
No matter how good the children from the second wife are, they are not her biological children. A nephew is a nephew; there is always a difference between them.
“I didn’t,” Huang Shi sighed, “I was just stating the facts, to tell you not to always take things for granted.”
Taking benefits for granted, being harsh for granted, and believing oneself to be righteous for granted...
He rarely discussed these trivial matters with his wife before, and never knew that when women became unreasonable, they could be so stubborn and terrifying.
They always arrogantly believe that others are at fault, and then attack and insult them in every way.
Ultimately, it was simply that we failed to grant her her wish and comply with her desires.
“How am I being unreasonable?” Sister-in-law Huang felt wronged. “On the contrary, you always side with outsiders. They think everything they say smells good, but it’s wrong for my son and me to even breathe.”
