If we rely solely on Fu Yibo's family background, all the housework will fall on the original owner.
Bei's mother loves her daughter, so she naturally considers all these things carefully to prevent her daughter from suffering after getting married.
On the third day after Bei Yutang got married, her mother-in-law, Mrs. Lin, drove the two maids and two servants that Bei Yutang brought back to the Bei family on the grounds that the family had no money to pay them.
Even if the original owner wanted to stop it, her mother-in-law was adamant. She didn't want to disobey her mother-in-law right after arriving, so she had no choice but to send the two maids and two old women back to the Bei family.
From that day on, her mother-in-law began to let her do all the housework. Bei Yutang had never done these things before. She would either break the dishes or burn the food. In short, she couldn't do anything well.
Every time she didn't do it well, Lin would stand by and mock her with disgust, saying things like "Look at you, you can't even do such a small thing", "This is how you serve your husband".
"How can you be so stupid? You can't do this or that, and yet you still need an old woman like me to wait on you?", "Look at this world, there's no such thing as a mother-in-law waiting on her daughter-in-law. Even if I were to tell you the truth, it wouldn't happen."
"Who did our Fu family ancestors offend to deserve to marry someone like you?" "My life has been so hard. I raised my son and thought I'd have a easier time once he got married. I never thought I'd have to serve him."
The original owner had never seen such a woman before. She was embarrassed and angry by what Lin said, but she could not do anything as rude as her.
The original owner had been ridiculed by Lin Shi several times and had considered quitting her job and returning to her parents' home. However, she remembered that when she got married, her father had made it clear to her that he no longer had a daughter.
Bei Yutang felt ashamed to go back, but with Fu Yibo's gentle comfort, she gave up the idea and forced herself to hold it back.
Seeing that she didn't dare to resist her, Lin treated her even more harshly.
Every time Bei Yutang was wronged, Fu Yibo would coax her and ask her to give in to her mother, saying that her mother had raised her with great difficulty. Although her mother was a little harsh in her words, she had a good heart and asked the original owner to reflect on the Lin family.
The original owner tolerated Lin step by step for Fu Yibo's sake, and gradually Lin's behavior became more and more excessive.
When the original owner was about to give up and wanted to go back to her parents' home, Fu Yibo changed his previous impatient attitude, began to care about her, and even took her out for an outing.
However, during this outing, they encountered a villain. The original owner was molested by the villain and was beaten away by Fu Yi Bo when he was doing something indecent.
Not only did Fu Yibo not mind that she was dirty, he was also so kind to her, which made the original owner both touched and guilty towards Fu Yibo, and felt that she had let him down.
Therefore, from that day on, no matter how harshly Lin treated her, she endured it silently.
Under Lin's care, in half a year, the originally plump owner had become very thin. More importantly, the long-term oppression by Lin made her character become more and more cowardly.
She kept giving in, but Lin kept getting more and more demanding.
Six months after their marriage, Lin constantly complained about her infertility, saying she was a hen that couldn't lay eggs. She'd repeat this phrase two or three times every day when she saw her. Eventually, even the original owner began to doubt herself, wondering if her inability to conceive was the cause of her mother-in-law's dislike and her husband's gradual alienation.
