Ma Lai's experience serves as a warning to the daughters-in-law of Xiangyang Village: do not make friends casually, be sure not to invite a wolf into the house, and do not provide excessive support to her parents' home.
Deng Xiunü, the eldest daughter-in-law of Zhao Guoming, finally came to her senses and realized that it was a taboo to use money and food from her husband's family to subsidize her own family. It was a blessing in disguise that her husband's family did not drive her away like the Jiang family did.
Fortunately, I woke up early, otherwise I would become the second Malay.
Thinking of the partiality of her own parents, if she brought money and food back to her parents' home, her parents would provide for her and coax her, but if she had no money and no food, they would leave her alone. Last time, she had a falling out with her in-laws and ran back to her parents' home, but her parents wouldn't keep her, wouldn't give her food, wouldn't help her make decisions, and even made her sleep in the woodshed. She had to get up early and do the housework, washing clothes, cooking, and going to the fields.
Her parents favored boys over girls, and they only took advantage of her sisters. She married into the captain's family, and her living conditions were pretty good. Although she didn't have to eat meat every meal, at least she had enough food and clothing. Her other sisters were beaten half to death by their husbands-in-law just because they helped her parents.
Aunt Lu used this opportunity to enlighten her two daughters-in-law, "It's not that you are not allowed to help your parents, but there must be a limit. Ma Laikan is asking for trouble and has ruined her family. The Ma family thinks she is eating for free, so they have found her a new husband, a butcher in Qingshan Village, who sold her for 200 yuan."
The second daughter-in-law, Sun Chunlian, exclaimed, "Ma Laikan's parents are crazy. Qingshan Village is not a good place. The butcher has beaten several daughters-in-law to death. His family is very resentful. I heard that those daughters-in-law were buried in the mounds of earth in the backyard of his house. If they die, they must be his family. How can they be so cruel to send their own daughter to death?"
"Don't worry, mother. I have not had any contact with my parents for a long time. But my sister-in-law should be careful not to be sold out by her parents."
Deng Xiunv felt a chill down her spine and quickly told her mother-in-law, "Mom, I will keep my distance from my parents' family in the future. I will keep all the money I earn for myself now. If I continue to be stubborn, what Ma Lai sees today will be my tomorrow."
Aunt Lu is very satisfied with the performance of her two daughters-in-law. She believes that a harmonious family will last. What worries her most now is Zhao Simei, who is too arrogant and afraid of death to abort the bastard in her belly.
She and her husband will have to worry about it. If nothing else, they can only...
Of course, not all women in Xiangyang Village are enlightened. For example, Mrs. Fu Liu Laixi always believed that Ma Laidi had fallen into such a situation because he was not filial enough to his parents.
Some even think that marrying a butcher for the second time can receive hundreds of dollars in dowry. Apart from being older, she is not under pressure from her parents-in-law, and no one cares what she wants to take back to her parents' home. It is considered that Ma Laijian is marrying above her station. Such good conditions are hard to find even with a lantern. I really don't know why Ma Laijian is so picky. If it were her, she would marry whoever her parents told her to marry. Could it be that her parents would harm her?
With a new baby named Ma coming to look after them, Widow Ma's life became increasingly difficult. In addition, Secretary Ding was dissatisfied with her because of his daughter's marriage to his younger brother.
After accepting the betrothal gift from the butcher, Ma’s parents went straight to Widow Ma’s house to make trouble.
Ma Lai Di naturally refused to go with her parents. "I won't marry. I have severed my relationship with your Ma family. If you force me to marry again, I will just kill myself..."
Gan Qi brought Jiang Chengcai to join in the fun, and said sarcastically, "Come and see me, marriage is a big deal, and the matchmaker's words are what you say. Don't you claim to be the most filial daughter? How can you disobey your parents? Although you are not lucky enough to be with honest brother, I still hope you can be happy. I will help you take good care of your son!"
Ma Lai was furious when he heard this. He pushed his parents aside and rushed to Gan Qi, "Don't be too proud. Gu Wanwan, Zheng Shican, and Liang Xin will not let you go. You think you can become an official's wife by marrying Jiang Chengshi? The Jiang family is in debt. You are just glamorous on the surface."
"Jiang Chengshi, the unfaithful man who didn't want his first wife, will get his comeuppance sooner or later. Why did he get promoted? I'm going to report him to the army. I'm going to bring disgrace to your Jiang family..."
Gan Qi was confident that he could control the situation and pointed at Jiang Chengcai with his chin, "Chengcai, your mother wants to kill you and our Jiang family. Don't be filial to such a person in the future."
Jiang Chengcai is a mother to anyone who feeds him. He obeys Gan Qi's every word. "Gan Qi's mother, you are my real mother. I will only respect you in the future. Ma Lai is not like that. If she dares to bully Gan Qi's mother and the Jiang family, I will hate her for the rest of my life."
Ma Laidi couldn't help but burst into tears, feeling so distressed that he couldn't breathe, "Jiang Chengcai, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Gan Qi is not really good to you. She has been holding a grudge against you for snatching food from you on the train last time. Believe it or not, when she has a child, she will kick you away and take away the love of your father and grandparents."
Jiang Chengcai had been brainwashed by Gan Qi, so he could not listen to Ma Laidi's words. "Aunt Ma, when you were not at the Jiang family, all the delicious food was left to me. No uncle would fight with me, and no grandparents would scold me for eating for free. My mother Gan Qi is very generous. I don't believe she would abandon me. You are obviously jealous of her marrying dad."
Gan Qi looked up with a proud glance. Anyway, she had already successfully married Jiang Chengshi, so she would just pretend for a few days and then come back to teach Jiang Chengcai a lesson. This naughty boy had no chance of joining the army with her.
Ma Lai Di was filled with sadness and despair. The son she had loved for many years had completely cut off her last hope. "Jiang Chengcai, you don't even recognize your biological mother. If that's the case, I, Ma Lai Di, don't want you as my son anymore. I don't care whether you live or die."
Jiang Chengcai turned his head away with red eyes. He did not regret his choice. It was obviously his own mother Ma Laikan who did the wrong. If he wanted to deny it, then he didn't have to. Gan Qiniang had promised that she would always be good to him.
Widow Ma gave her parents a look, and the Ma parents immediately grabbed Ma from both sides to look at him, and wanted to drag him back to the Ma family.
The villagers watched coldly, and no one wanted to get involved in this muddy water. After all, Malay's character was there.
"Secretary Ding, come out here!" Ma Laidi knew that if he was taken home by his parents, there would be no return.
Secretary Ding was already dissatisfied with Ma Laikan, one of the instigators, saying, "It is your parents who make the decision, not my responsibility."
Yu Cuihua thought of her daughter's suffering after marrying into the Ma family, and she wished that Ma Lai-dian would be killed immediately. "You are a second-hand mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and you still have the nerve to be picky. Take the Ma family away quickly. With such a troublesome sister-in-law around, I don't know if she will be seen by my daughter in the future."
Ma Laidi struggled hard, "Secretary Ding, sister, do you really want to kill us all?"
Secretary Ding and Widow Ma's expressions suddenly changed.
Gu Wanwan ate some melon seeds and squeezed out of the crowd, "Wow, it's really lively."
Ma Lai knew that he had nothing, so he just threw everything at it. "Gu Zhiqing, team leader, I have a big secret about Secretary Ding. Do you want to hear it? Yu Cuihua, Yu Cuihua, you have been smart all your life, but in the end you still end up like me!"
Villagers: “……!!”
