"You are not our daughter. If I had known I would give birth to such an ungrateful person like you, I should not have raised you and supported your education." Grandma Yan pointed at the door and yelled at Yan Xiaomin, "Get out of here. I don't have a daughter like you. I have a son and daughter-in-law. I don't expect my daughter to take care of me in my old age."

Yan Xiaomin sneered: "You expect your daughter to take care of you in your old age? Isn't that a joke? You certainly can't expect me to take care of you in your old age, and I can't do that.

"You have a brother and sister-in-law at home, what do you expect me to do? It's good enough for me to help you raise a little Tathagata, don't expect anything else."

Yan Fengchai took a puff of his cigarette and flicked off the ash: "Help us train Yan Ru? Do you believe this? You know her personality better than us, right? In all these years, have you and your niece ever come back to visit her once?

If Chuchu hadn't found you, you would never have come back until you died, right? Yan Ru has severed ties with us, and whatever you have to do with her in the future is your business."

"What? She cut off ties with her family?"

Yan Xiaomin didn't know Yan Ru's decision. She went home without telling him and continued to work, eat, and sleep as usual. She thought she was still getting along well with her family, but she didn't expect that they were broken off.

How cruel.

"Now that you have your own daughter, you don't want to raise a daughter anymore?" Yan Xiaomin mocked, "Is it because your own daughter came to you to please you and won your heart? That's why you look down on Xiaoru and drive her out."

Grandpa Yan was furious: "You fart!"

The people around were explaining at once.

"Xiao Min! You are wrong. It's not your parents, brother and sister-in-law who want to drive Yan Ru away. It's her who wants to sever ties with the family."

"Yan Ru is an ungrateful person. She didn't want to pay any money, but she wanted the family to buy her a house full of furniture. If they didn't give her any, she would say your brother and sister-in-law are partial. She cried and made a fuss at home for a long time, and when she saw that she didn't get anything, she said she wanted to cut off ties with the family. It's not your brother and sister-in-law's fault."

"Yes! We were there that day and watched the whole thing. Yan Ru was unreasonable and shameless. Not only did he ask for this and that, but he also refused to pay. No one could stand this."

This man's words were like a slap in the face, slapping Yan Xiaomin hard.

She happens to be the one who wants this and that and won't give a penny.

But she is thick-skinned and remains indifferent no matter what others say.

"Brother! If you can't give me all the furniture in the house, can't you give me two pieces? Is it necessary to break off the relationship?"

Lan Guihua, who was picking vegetables in the field, came in from outside and said, "Your brother said that if you give her a pair of camphorwood boxes and two wooden basins, one large and one small, she won't be happy with them and will want a whole house of furniture. If you don't give them, the engagement will be severed."

"You are just stingy. It's just furniture! You won't die if you give me two more." Yan Xiaomin was generous to others and didn't feel sorry at all.

Yan Fengchai said coldly: "She doesn't want two things, she wants everything. A large wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a bunk bed, a dressing table, a large wooden basin, a small wooden basin, a washbasin stand, a desk, a dining table, and six stools.

How much wood is needed to make so many pieces of furniture? I don’t have only one daughter. Chuchu is also getting married on May Day. I gave her 500 yuan for the furniture.

As for her, she doesn't even give me a cent, but just wants to take advantage of me. I can't afford to give her even if I sell my bones and flesh."

Although my daughter didn't say that the 500 yuan she gave me was for furniture, I couldn't just accept her money for no reason. The money she saved by living frugally could be considered as buying furniture.

"Five hundred yuan, and she only wants five pieces of furniture. A large wardrobe, a bunk bed, a chest of drawers, and a dressing table. She didn't want anything else." Grandma Yan stared at Yan Xiaomin, "Look at Chuchu, then look at Yan Ru, and you, what are you doing without them? Are you keeping them to embarrass yourself?

Your father and I have also severed our relationship with you. We will no longer have any contact with you. Go back home! I will be your officer’s wife. We are peasants and cannot marry you.”

Yan Xiaomin ignored Grandma Yan and looked at Grandpa Yan: "Dad! What do you mean? Do you want me to get out too?"

"Alas!" Grandpa Yan sighed deeply, "Just go! Just pretend that we, your useless parents, don't exist. Ever since you got married, you have ignored us. I know that you don't like the countryside and hate it.

You are a high-ranking city dweller, go back! Don't put your feet on the ground of lowliness and force yourself to come back, there is no need."

"Then where is the bed I want?" Yan Xiaomin asked shamelessly.

Grandma Yan refused outright: "No."

"Why does my niece have it and I don't? You are biased." Yan Xiaomin argued with Grandma Yan, "You have always been biased since I was a child. You always save the delicious food for my brother, saying that he has to work hard. Then why don't you say anything about my studying and using my brain?"

Grandma Yan was so angry that she laughed: "Fortunately I am biased, otherwise I would regret it to death. I gave birth to such an ungrateful person like you, and you married an officer man who even your parents look down on.

You haven't been back for many years, and when you came back you bought a dozen fruit candies. Who are you trying to fool?"

"I bought half a pound and distributed it to others at the entrance of the village." Yan Xiaomin explained with her neck stiff, "Isn't it enough that I left so much for you? Just because I left you less, you won't make a bed for me?"

The people watching the fun didn't know what to say. Yan Xiaomin was too stingy. She came back for a rare visit, and she only bought half a pound of fruit candy?

He also said that he gave it all to them, which was so hilarious.

If you don't want to give it, don't give it. No one is forcing you to give it. What else is there to say after you have given it?

I originally wanted to persuade her parents not to be too picky with their child and that it would be good for her to come back.

After hearing these dirty words, they all left with dark faces, not caring whether she would be kicked out or not.

The carpenters who were working all laughed when they heard this, and whispered to Yan Fengchai, "What kind of fate is this for you? Your adopted daughter is unreasonable, so why is your sister unreasonable too? Are they born of the same mother?"

Yan Fengchai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My sister was spoiled by my parents. At that time, all the girls in the village did not go to school, but she was the only one who went to school.

Because she was pretty, she was chosen by my brother-in-law, who was an officer, and married him. From then on, she stopped contacting her family. She thought we were peasants and that it would be embarrassing for her to go to the military family compound.

"Your own daughter wouldn't be like this, would she?" The carpenter looked at Yan Fengchai with sympathy.

"My daughter won't. She has been well-educated and knows how to respect the elderly and love the young. Her boyfriend is an officer of the same rank as my brother-in-law. She will be an officer's wife in the future and a doctor in a military hospital."

Speaking of Chen Chuchu, the bitter smile on Yan Fengchai's face instantly turned into a sweet smile, and his eyes lit up.

"Her adoptive parents are doctors at the Kyoto Military District Hospital. They don't look down on me, a farmer. My daughter is very beautiful. She looks exactly like my mother-in-law."

As they were chatting, Chen Chuchu walked in with two fish and a bag of herbs in her hands.

"Grandpa! Grandma! Mom and Dad! I'm back. I just passed by the town and saw someone selling fish. They were very fresh, so I bought two. I felt Grandpa's pulse last time and found that his leg and back pain were caused by rheumatism. I picked some herbs and brought them back to make medicinal wine for Grandpa to drink. It can relieve his discomfort."

When she looked up and saw Yan Xiaomin, she was stunned for a moment and ignored her.
