"You can choose not to wrong yourself, but you can't wrong others just for your own sake."
If you're willing to forgo food and drink for the sake of beauty, why don't you become an immortal?
Oh, someone like you would never make it.
Chunxiang felt even more aggrieved. How could her mother say such a thing?
"I'm serious, if you buy any more, I'll burn or cut them up for you. You can try me if you don't believe me."
Chunxiang: "..."
Chunxiang was so angry that she was trembling with rage.
"Mom, what exactly do you want to do? I just don't understand, have you gone crazy today? You weren't like this before."
The original owner was truly out of her mind back then.
"I used to think you had some self-awareness, but now it seems you have nothing at all."
"You two, one of you is shameless, only thinking about taking other people's things, and the other just wants to indulge them."
Mo Yan turned to look at Da Hua and spoke to him.
"Dahua, don't think you're without any problems. Do you know that indulgence is the biggest problem? It's because of your indulgence that she's become more and more arrogant."
Logically speaking, you two are family, and I shouldn't be meddling. But look at the state of your lives. Your combined salaries aren't low, are they? Much higher than your older brother's—you earn nearly twenty yuan, and she earns a little over ten. Thirty-odd yuan a month is considered above average in our county.
You two can't save a single penny, and you always act like you'd do anything for her. The reason you're broke is because you spoil your wife. Do you think that's appropriate?
Starting this month, Dahua, you're not allowed to give him all of your salary to buy clothes. Maybe in other families the wife should manage the money, but not in yours.
Save your salary wisely. You'll have children later, and there will be many expenses. This old woman doesn't have any money and can't help you.
As for your eldest brother, you know very well that he is your brother-in-law. How could you possibly spend his money? Besides, he has his own children and his salary is not as high as yours. How could you possibly lend him a hand?
Don't just talk the talk. You might be embarrassed, you might not want this to happen, but if you really don't want this to happen, can't you show it with your actions? Can't you stop her? Ultimately, isn't it just that you don't want to?
Indulging her is a problem too, okay? Don't think that just letting Chunxiang have her way is okay. To put it bluntly, isn't it just letting her go to other people's houses to ask for things? Some things lose their meaning when you say them too explicitly.
Da Hua also felt a little wronged. He hadn't thought about such a far place, nor had he thought so much about it. He just didn't want to disappoint Chun Xiang.
"Mom, I really didn't mean that. I just hope Chunxiang can be happier. No matter what the truth is, I'll agree with whatever you do. But don't worry, since you've put it this way today, I'll definitely do as you say in the future."
Chunxiang refused. "No, Mom, no..." She grabbed the old lady's hand. "Mom, you can't treat me like this. I'm your own daughter. If you don't love me anymore, who will care about me and take care of me? Aren't you worried that people will bully me?"
Mo Yan shook off her hand and looked at her with utter indifference. "Don't even think about getting a single penny from me or your brother from now on. There's still more than a month, almost two months, before you give birth. If you spend all of your salary for those two months, then you won't have any money to go to the hospital to give birth. You'll just have to give birth at home, and I won't come to take care of you."
"Alright, that's settled then. I'm leaving. I'll come over in a couple of days to check if there are any new clothes in your closet. If there's even one extra item, I'll take care of it."
Mo Yan left their house.
Chunxiang looked at Moyan's retreating figure, feeling extremely distressed. "Dahua, my mom has gone mad. My mom has really gone mad."
She was certain that her mother had really gone mad.
Dahua helped her up and made her lie down on the bed. "Chunxiang, Mom has already made herself very clear. You should think it over carefully. I won't give you this month's salary."
Chunxiang: "???"
"You dare!" Chunxiang glared at him, demanding that he hand it over.
Dahua eventually gave her ten yuan, telling her that this month she only had ten yuan.
When Mo Yan returned home, she found that the bastard wasn't there; only Da Yun was home.
"And him?"
Dayun felt a little uneasy when she saw that her mother-in-law's expression was not good.
"Mom, he went to the alley entrance to buy soy sauce."
Heh, Mo Yan didn't believe a single word of that. "Do you believe it?"
Da Yun smiled awkwardly. To be honest, she didn't really believe it, but it was definitely not a good idea to say it directly.
"I'll deal with him later. There's something I want to tell you."
Dayun immediately tensed up, feeling somewhat uneasy, and gripped her sleeve tightly. "Mom, just tell me what you need."
Mo Yan: "..."
This made Mo Yan a little embarrassed.
"Don't be nervous. I don't have anything for you to do. I just hope you take good care of yourself. Of course, I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing it for my grandchildren. I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow for a thorough check-up to see when you'll give birth. We'll go to the hospital in advance."
Also, those things you prepared, don't give them to Chunxiang. If she comes to ask for them, just tell me, and I'll talk to her. You're her sister-in-law, there's no need to fawn over her; she's practically on top of the world.”
Dayun's eyes widened in disbelief. Could this really be her mother-in-law?
"I'm talking to you, can't you hear me?"
Dayun nodded quickly, "Oh, Mom, I understand. But there's no need to go for a checkup. I don't feel uncomfortable at all. I can just give birth at home from now on. There's no need to waste money on that."
In Da Yun's mind, going to the hospital to give birth is a waste of money. So many people here give birth at home and nothing happens.
Mo Yan's face darkened instantly. "Who's in charge of this family, me or you?"
When Da Yun was looked at like that by Mo Yan, he immediately cowered and said, "Mom, you decide."
"Then stop talking nonsense. Also, here's 5 yuan for you. Go buy whatever you want to eat. Don't give this money to Chunguo or Chunxiang. Keep it for yourself."
Remember, you need to have some money on hand, no matter what. When your child grows up, you'll need to buy him snacks. Otherwise, what will you do when he asks you for snacks?
After saying that, Mo Yan stuffed money into her hand, "I'm going to find that bastard."
Dayun stared at the five yuan in her hand for a long time, unable to come back to her senses. Her nose tingled, tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt a warm feeling in her heart.
Although Mom speaks harshly, she has a kind heart.
Actually, the original owner had a sharp tongue but a heart of steel; this daughter-in-law meant nothing to her!
