Yang Erbao hung his head, not daring to utter another word after being scolded. Seeing this, Hei Ya understood that Yang Erbao wasn't the one who called the shots in this house.
"Hurry up and apologize to your uncle!"
Yang Erbao had no choice but to apologize, "Uncle, I'm sorry, I misspoke."
The uncle snorted, not even glancing at him, but looking at the old lady, "Get to the point, what exactly happened!"
The old lady had been watching closely the whole time. Now that she saw where the axe was, she ran over, grabbed it, and went to the doorway, where she chopped it down with all her might.
The lock opened instantly.
The eldest sister-in-law was stunned, staring at her mother-in-law in disbelief. "Mother, what are you doing? This is our room!"
The old lady sneered and looked at her with disdain. "Bullshit! This whole house belongs to me. Where is your room? There's no such thing as your room."
The old lady kicked the door open and went straight in. Her sister-in-law tried to stop her, but it was too late; she quickly followed her in.
"Mother, Mother...this is our room, it's not appropriate for you."
The eldest sister-in-law is now really a little flustered. Although her mother-in-law was very domineering before, she would never enter their room.
To put it simply, although we don't know what happened, there were some things in her room that her mother-in-law couldn't see.
The more the daughter-in-law said this, the more the old lady felt that there was something wrong with her daughter-in-law.
Even if it wasn't the daughter-in-law who took it, it was the son who took it. The two of them had been eyeing her money for a long time.
The old lady was filled with regret; she shouldn't have told her son about his secret stash of money.
The reason the old lady told her eldest son was because... she was seriously ill once, and she thought that she had to tell her son everything, otherwise if something really happened, her son wouldn't know.
She didn't want to tell her younger son, so she told her older son instead.
The old lady regretted it; she really regretted it.
I regret it so much.
I should have never told him! Now look what's happened, I have nothing left. It's infuriating!
No, there's no way she could spend all that silver at once. She needs to search this room thoroughly.
The others certainly wouldn't dare go in, after all, it's someone else's room, and if they went in and lost something, they would be responsible. Nobody's stupid, so they just waited at the door.
Even though her sister-in-law went in with her, the old lady didn't care. She searched everywhere and soon found a box containing silver, all small silver ingots, one or two coins each, totaling about ten taels.
This made the old lady even angrier.
She knew her eldest son and his family had some savings, but this much was unacceptable, so the old lady raised her hand and slapped them.
"You slut, you actually encouraged my son to save money on the side."
The older sister-in-law was so badly beaten that she felt dizzy and lightheaded.
"Tell me where the rest of the silver is! Hand it over to me right now."
The eldest sister-in-law covered her face, tears streaming down her face. "Mother, it's all gone, really all gone. This was my dowry."
"Pah!" the old lady spat. "You have no dowry whatsoever! Your family is so poor, how could you possibly give your parents anything? Besides, your parents didn't prepare a dowry for you at all; all they do is come to our house and ask for things!"
This daughter-in-law is not well received by her own family, and the idea that she might have a dowry is utter nonsense!
“Mother, even if it’s not part of the dowry, this money is something we saved up ourselves.”
The eldest sister-in-law realized that this matter was beyond repair. She wiped away her tears and said, "Mother, I don't know what happened that made you suddenly come to my room, search through everything, and finally say that my money is wrong."
You can't do this, can you? You can't bully people like this.
"Does that mean I can't earn some money for you?"
"No!" the old lady roared. In this family, she was the only one in charge. Only things she said were allowed could be done, and things she didn't say were forbidden!
She might let her eldest son save some money on the side to go out for drinks, but that doesn't mean they can save this much.
"Big brother, close the door!"
The old lady looked at her uncle outside and spoke.
The uncle knew something was wrong. Without hesitation, he went over and closed the door before returning to check on them.
They were supposed to be celebrating a happy occasion today, but things went wrong. Everyone was wondering if anything else was going on, so even though they left, they didn't go far. Now they're all listening at the door after hearing the commotion.
Everyone was eager to know what would happen next. Surprisingly, their eldest daughter-in-law was quite capable, managing to save money on her own.
And this old lady, she's having a happy occasion today, and she's already starting to make trouble for her daughter-in-law. Isn't she afraid of upsetting her daughter-in-law?
And wouldn't it be great if they started fighting? They could watch the show, and some people even went looking for Mo Yan, thinking that if another Mo Yan came along, the scene would be really exciting.
Hearing the commotion outside, the little girl in the room wanted to go out and see what was going on. She struggled to stand up and saw... oh, she could still walk, but she had to hop on one foot.
The old lady was very unhappy that her daughter-in-law dared to talk back to her, so she grabbed a stick from the side and was about to hit her.
The eldest sister-in-law was no longer afraid and looked up at the old lady directly. "Mother, we have always been obedient. We do whatever you ask us to do, but your behavior today has really hurt me. That is my room."
You just smashed down the door and went in. You said the whole yard was yours, and that's true, but...
But you forgot one thing, grandson. Your rule has always been that once your son gets married, he can move out and live on his own, and his parents should also help provide a house.
My eldest child is the oldest, and will be responsible for your care in your old age, so this house is ours, isn't it?
Everyone: "!!!!"
Everyone was stunned. They never expected Yang Dabao's wife to be so formidable, capable of saying such things.
That's the truth, but if you say it out loud, it makes people think you're being disrespectful.
"You'll be working for us from now on, so I hope you can respect me a little now. That way, when you need my care in the future, I can do my best to help you, right?"
At this point, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call these words a threat.
It really is almost like a threat.
Are you threatening me? Are you implying that I'll have to rely on you in the future?
The old lady laughed in exasperation, “The only things that can’t be changed in this world are my two sons; everything else can be changed.”
You can go back to your parents' home right now. I'll have my son divorce you and find him a well-behaved and sensible woman. Didn't you see how sensible Hei Ya is?
"People just know how to obey; do you think everyone is like you?"
