Chapter 165: Lu Chiyu plots against Old Lady Zhou by retreating to advance! Old Lady Zhou and the others reveal their true colors!
"So they are here to ask for Colonel Zhou's pension?" Lu Chiyu asked directly.
"That's right. I heard they want to steal my job. A dozen of them are now causing trouble in the fertilizer plant's staff quarters.
I heard that Mrs. Zhou was crying miserably. Ayu, why don’t you come with us to take a look?”
Lu Chiyu was furious. She threw the tablecloth on the ground and locked the door. "Let's go and meet these people!"
Mrs. Hai: ...She feels a little scared when she sees the aura of her sister A Yu.
More than ten or twenty minutes later, Lu Chiyu and a group of more than a dozen military wives arrived at the fertilizer factory's staff quarters.
From a distance, I could hear an old, harsh female voice wailing, "Murder! Robbers are killing the families of martyrs! If you dare to touch me, I will report you to the investigating agency for killing the families of martyrs."
And you must be this bitch’s mistress, that’s why you’re helping her drive out the old woman. Whoever dares to drive out the old woman will be the bitch’s enemy…”
As soon as Lu Chiyu heard it, he knew that the other party was a tough guy who didn't care about face and only wanted to get benefits.
As expected, as I got closer, I saw the entrance to the family compound. Mrs. Zhou was holding Zhou Ziying and shivering, wiping away tears.
Opposite them, an old lady in her sixties, wearing green homespun and with bound feet, was sitting on the ground throwing a tantrum and rolling around.
Behind her stood two middle-aged couples and a row of seven or eight boys ranging from eighteen or nineteen to six or seven years old.
Four people who were obviously from the fertilizer factory tried to persuade Old Lady Zhou, but were threatened.
Then a crowd of people gathered around to watch the fun.
"Everyone, please judge for yourself. This bitch has only given birth to a money-losing child in over ten or twenty years. She caused my eldest son to be extinct, and now she has killed my eldest son. She took my son's pension and refused to give a penny to me or her husband's brothers. Have you ever seen such a vicious woman?"
Old Mrs. Zhou slapped the ground, scolded several people from the fertilizer factory, and then asked questions to the crowd.
Not to mention that there were actually quite a few people in the crowd who sympathized with Old Mrs. Zhou, and they all pointed fingers at Mrs. Zhou and her daughter.
At that time, everyone still cared about continuing the family line, and having no descendants was the greatest tragedy. Many people complained about the fact that Mrs. Zhou had no descendants in her husband's family and took all of her husband's pension.
Guo Caixia, who was in a bad temper, was about to go up and fight with Old Lady Zhou when she heard this, but Lu Chiyu stopped her in time.
"You are Colonel Zhou's mother, right?"
Old Mrs. Zhou was feeling proud that she was on the winning side of public opinion when she saw a girl as beautiful as a fairy asking her a question with a sweet smile and a crisp voice. She was stunned for a moment.
Lu Chiyu didn't mind the other party's lack of response and continued, "Then, old man, what do you want Sister Zhou to do to satisfy you? Just tell us generously. We will definitely let Sister Zhou satisfy you if we can."
Guo Caixia and the others couldn't help but frown when they heard Lu Chiyu say that, but just as they were about to speak, they saw Lu Chiyu winking at them, telling them not to interfere.
So, relying on her trust in Lu Chiyu, Mrs. Hai secretly made a gesture to ask everyone to stay calm.
When Old Lady Zhou heard what Lu Chiyu said, she was overjoyed: "What you said sounds quite reasonable, but as an old woman, I don't ask for much.
First of all, I heard that my eldest son's pension plus the donation from the military district amounted to 1,500 yuan, and this money was divided between me and his two younger brothers' families, each receiving 500 yuan.
Besides, my eldest son can give the rest of his money to the old woman, and then let this bitch give her job to my eldest grandson."
As soon as Mrs. Zhou said this, there was an uproar at the scene. Even many people who had spoken up for Mrs. Zhou before felt as if they were being strangled.
"In that case, how will Mrs. Zhou and her daughter live in the future?" Lu Chiyu continued to ask with a smile.
Old Lady Zhou waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "Of course, she should be sent back to her parents' home with her lost child. She is also not allowed to take away anything she and her daughter brought from the military area.
Aside from the clothes they are wearing, they can't take anything from our Zhou family!"
The crowd was even more shocked when they heard this.
"But Zhou Ziying is Colonel Zhou's only daughter, a legitimate martyr's orphan. Wouldn't it be a shame for you, old lady, to not give her anything?"
Old Mrs. Zhou was still nonchalant: "What's wrong with that? How can she be called a martyr's orphan when she loses money? Didn't you see that the old woman asked my eldest grandson Baogen to take over this bitch's job? I'm adopting Baogen to the eldest son, and he can pass on the family line to his uncle in the future.
By the way, this bitch can't have a son for nothing, so let her give Baogen ten yuan a month for living expenses, and when Baogen gets married, she will also give him a betrothal gift."
Old Lady Zhou said this, but Zhou Baogen behind her still had some opinions: "Grandma, ten yuan a month is not enough. Ask my aunt to give me at least twenty yuan a month to make it enough for me."
Then Zhou Baogen's parents also spoke one after another.
"And us, my husband and I spent 19 years of hard work to raise Baogen. Now that he has been adopted by my eldest brother, my eldest sister-in-law has to compensate our family."
"That's right, we don't ask for much. Sister-in-law, just give us 1,000 yuan and a bicycle ticket."
At this time, the third branch of the Zhou family was not willing to lag behind, and the couple also spoke up.
"Sister-in-law, we still have our family. You gave money to the second wife, but it doesn't make sense for you to not care about our third wife at all. Our Zhou family only split up when Baogen turned eighteen. We should also get a share of the money for raising Baogen."
"That's right, sister-in-law, please give us three rooms 1,000 yuan and a bicycle ticket."
The crowd became even more shocked after hearing this. What kind of person is this? They don't acknowledge your identity, but turn around and make you work like a slave for the family. Even the landlords in the old society wouldn't dare to do this!
Lu Chiyu was very satisfied to see that the Zhou family had aroused public outrage. This was exactly the effect she wanted.
It is useless to reason with Mrs. Zhou, a martyr's family member who is unreasonable and uses public opinion.
Especially now that many people's thinking is still very feudal, because Mrs. Zhou did not give birth to a son, it might really allow Old Lady Zhou to stand at the commanding heights of public opinion and gain all the benefits.
In this situation, you have to expose her true colors and let everyone see how extreme she is.
Only by making her lose the support of the people first, everything else will be easier to handle. Otherwise, even if they help Aunt Zhou and her daughter keep their pensions and jobs today, they will inevitably be criticized by people around them in the future.
And now the effect is very good. She was just throwing out an idea, and not only Mrs. Zhou, but also all the other members of the Zhou family have revealed their true colors.
Then she pretended to be embarrassed and continued to add fuel to the fire, "But Mrs. Zhou will lose her job in the future. How can she afford to give your family so much money? You will force them to death by doing this."
Old Mrs. Zhou spread her hands again and said disapprovingly, "I don't care about this old woman. I don't care whether she steals or robs. Anyway, these are all owed to our Zhou family by her.
This is the new society now. In the past, women who didn't give birth to a son for their husband's family and even killed their husbands would have to be treated as unlucky! "
Sure enough, at this point, someone in the crowd finally couldn't help but explode!
