Chapter 21: Quarrel



But Chen Yan went to lie down on the bed after arriving home. Seeing this, Chen Lao Da was shocked, thinking that something had happened to his mother-in-law. He hurried over to ask her, "What happened?"

Chen Yan turned her back to him and did not answer.

Boss Chen nudged her and asked tentatively, "How about we go to your house?"

Chen Yan's heart moved. If she couldn't marry Liang Cheng, she could still marry someone else. As long as she could go back, why wouldn't she want to? Thinking of this, she turned over and looked at Chen Lao with tears in her eyes, "Really?"

After saying this, Chen Laoda felt a pang of regret. Although his father was the team leader, he was a very upright person and never took more than he deserved, so his family was better off than the poorest. This trip to Beijing would cost a lot of money. Moreover, he had a secret thought in his mind: he was afraid that Chen Yan would leave and never come back. This kind of thing had happened in the village before. He knew that Chen Yan disliked him a little.

Seeing this, Chen Yan turned her back and said, "I knew you were worried about the fare. Well, my mother is fine, I just miss home." After saying that, she began to sob.

When she started crying, Chen Lao Da immediately felt distressed. Outside, two children heard their mother crying, and they ran in and started crying too.

In the kitchen, Chen Miao glanced outside, then looked up and said to her mother, "Mom, my sister-in-law is crying."

Wang Xiu, Chen Miao's mother, said without even looking up, "Ignore her. Let her make a fuss. Once she's upset enough, he'll give up and find me a wife who can give me grandchildren."

Chen Miao said dissatisfiedly: "Grandson, grandson, Mom, you are favoring boys over girls!"

Wang Xiu stirred the porridge. "So what if I favor boys over girls? Your brothers earn full work points every day carrying loads in the fields. How many work points do you get? Without your brothers, would you not have to work in the fields?"

Chen Miao pursed her lips. She would not go to the fields. Just when she was feeling upset, she heard Chen Yan crying again. She knocked on the fire tongs and said, "Cry, cry, cry, all you know is crying. It's so noisy."

After hearing this, Wang Xiu glared at her, said "watch the pot" and went out.

Boss Chen was coaxing Chen Yan, saying that he would accompany her back to Beijing.

Wang Xiu was furious when she heard this. She rushed in and slapped Chen Lao Da on the back, cursing, "Why are you going back? You have money to take a bus for such a long distance, why don't you go back alone? You do nothing all day and just goad your husband into spending money."

After hearing this, Chen Yan's guilt immediately disappeared, and she became even more determined to go back.

So, she wiped away her tears, pushed the two children away and said, "Mom, I know I didn't give you a grandson, and you've always been dissatisfied with me. You've often urged the child's father to divorce me. Today, I'll take advantage of your wishes. As long as you ask Dad to issue me a visit certificate, I will agree to a divorce."

Wang Xiu also said stubbornly: "Divorce if you want to. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You've wanted to leave for a long time, but you're just using me as a cover."

After hearing this, Chen Dayou said anxiously, "I don't agree. Yanyan, don't be angry, my mother didn't mean that." After that, he pulled Wang Xiu out and said, "Mom, if you really think of me as your son, then don't make things worse, okay? Is it my little sister who instigated you again? I'll go and tell her right away."

Chen Miao was unhappy after hearing this and immediately ran out and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? When did I ever instigate Mother? You two were crying so loudly in the room, and I wasn't the only one who heard it. Fourth Brother heard it too."

Chen Laosi was originally squatting at the gate of the courtyard to enjoy the cool air, but when he heard Chen Miao mention him, he ran away.

Chen Yan sneered, then looked down and saw the frightened eyes of the two children, and then she looked away. Don't blame her, she couldn't help it, because they were born into such a family.

Wang Xiu also said: "If you don't want to live like this, don't live like this. It's like this every day. I'm not even dead yet, but you're already crying. You can't even say it, Boss Chen, I raised you in vain. You even gave up your mother for a woman."

Boss Chen said helplessly: "Mom, that's not what I meant. I just hope that I can solve the problem between Yanyan and I by myself, and you don't interfere."

"Okay, you're capable. I won't get involved. Don't eat the food I cook and don't ask me for money." Wang Xiu walked towards the kitchen.

"Mom, that's not what I meant." Boss Chen said, holding his head.

Wang Xiu put her hands on her hips and said, "What do you mean? If I ask you to divorce that woman, are you willing?"

Boss Chen knew his mother was unreasonable, but he had no idea she was this unreasonable. He angrily said, "Mom, I won't agree to a divorce. It's okay if you don't give me the money. Just let me keep the money the team gave me. That's my own money, and I have the right to make my own decisions."

Wang Xiu was so angry that he fell backwards and cursed, "Are you going to separate from me? If you want to, I'll go with your second brother and see how the villagers scold you."

Boss Chen also replied stubbornly: "You can scold me, it's better than losing my family because of you."

Chen Miao now realized the seriousness of the situation and regretted instigating her mother to cause a scene. Chen Yan was affectionate, but she also had to save face. Her second sister-in-law wasn't so easy to deal with; she was a complete shrew. If her parents followed her second brother, she would be in dire straits.

"Mom, mom, please say less. Brother, you too. Mom is angry, why are you poking her lungs?" Chen Miao said loudly.

Boss Chen didn't even look at her. "Get out of my way. You're everywhere. Your second sister-in-law is right. You're lazy and always stirring up trouble. Look how idle you are. If you don't go to work tomorrow, you won't have any food."

Chen Miao immediately stamped her feet and said, "Mom, look at my brother. Why does he want me to work? My sister-in-law doesn't work either."

Boss Chen: "I am willing to support your sister-in-law."

Wang Xiu also said: "I am willing to support my daughter. My daughter is going to marry in the city. What if she gets tanned?"
