"I was so stupid not to have discovered your mother's black heart." The old lady was still very angry. She said one thing to your face and another behind your back. It was really... infuriating.
“She told me she would do nothing from now on and be treated like a king. When your grandpa and the others come back, she will say that she is going to cook and that I am taking a break. What is she trying to do? She is forcing me to work for her from now on, and all the good reputation will be hers. Dream on! Since they don’t believe me, I’m not going to serve them anymore.”
The old lady wiped away her tears and continued eating; she had finally managed to say it.
The four younger children didn't dare to say a word, while Mo Yan continued eating.
"Mom, we'll start making dried tofu tomorrow."
The old lady: "!!!!" She didn't even try to comfort me!
“When we go to the market, let’s sell tofu together. What do you think of this business? Since my sister-in-law is pregnant, let’s not call it ‘Yu Ma Tofu Shop’ anymore. What do you think?”
The old lady's surname was Yu.
The old lady's eyes widened. "Yu Ma's Tofu Shop?"
This...this...
Why did Mo Yan do this to her? She doesn't even know what to say anymore.
The tofu shop with her name on it.
I get so excited just thinking about it.
"Okay, I'll do anything for you." As long as it's Yu Ma's tofu shop, I'll do anything for her.
"Look at what you're saying, you get a share of the profits, you're working for yourself."
Mo Yan couldn't stop laughing; how could this old lady be so funny?
The old lady was naturally excited. Before, everyone knew that she was Aunt Tao, but no one knew that her surname was actually Yu, and that she was Yu San Niang.
We had just finished eating when someone came over.
When Mo Yan went outside, she saw that the woman was crying as she came over, followed by many other people.
“I know, I made my mother-in-law angry. Even if I’m pregnant, I have to kneel and kowtow three times to get her to come back. I can’t let her stay here with Mo Yan forever.”
People around asked, "Why did you make your mother-in-law angry?"
“I didn’t listen to my mother-in-law. I… I should have gone to work in the fields, I should have gone up the mountain to chop firewood…”
Those around were speechless. This Aunt Tao was going too far, making her kneel and kowtow three times while she was pregnant, and even making her go to the fields and up the mountain.
The old lady was about to rush out when she heard this, but Mo Yan stopped her. "I'll do it."
Mo Yan walked straight out and looked at her sister-in-law in front of her.
"Sister-in-law, what did you just say? What did Mother-in-law ask you to do?"
"I..." The sister-in-law didn't expect Mo Yan to speak up. She had been thinking that her mother-in-law was always seen as domineering in the eyes of the villagers, and they wouldn't believe her. But now her mother-in-law wasn't coming out.
“I didn’t say anything. My mother-in-law said that everything I did was my duty.”
The eldest sister-in-law lowered her head and stopped speaking, which others saw as a sign of her grievance.
"Sister-in-law, although your mouth is for talking, it's not for spouting nonsense. I don't know what my mother-in-law said, but I know she came over crying her eyes out."
She's such a proud person, would she cry if she hadn't been wronged?
Mo Yan looked at her sister-in-law and said, "Also, you mentioned chopping firewood, right? I remember the whole yard was full of firewood. What, are you preparing for next year?"
"Going to work in the fields? We haven't even started yet, have we? What are you going to do, dig? I've never seen you dig before. Why do you want to do everything now that you're pregnant? You've never been this obedient before."
The eldest sister-in-law was speechless after being spoken to, and she was somewhat frustrated, wondering why Mo Yan had done this.
"Finally, my mother-in-law will live with my family from now on."
