Mrs. Feng rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.
Sister Xin said that when they get old, if their children are not filial to them, they, the old people, will pool their resources to support them in their old age.
If someone dies, there will be someone to help with the funeral and someone to mourn.
Now, she is not worried about whether her son is filial or not!
If you are filial, keep it.
If you are not filial, get out!
It’s just right for her to save the money for her retirement!
Although Mr. Feng often advised his wife to be more open-minded, he did not dare to confront her.
He could only lower his head silently and continue weaving his basket.

The next morning, after breakfast, a large group of old men and women from Ping'an Village gathered at the entrance of the village.
Mr. Feng was also pulled over by Mrs. Feng.
Xin Guoguo nodded and said, "Everyone is here, let's go!"
The group left the village in a mighty procession on three ox carts.
They borrowed all the ox carts in the village.
An hour later.
Xiayaowazi Village.
Mrs. Feng's in-laws live here.
She led the way, with a group of people heading straight to her in-laws' home.
When the villagers saw this group of people, they were frightened and hurried to call the village chief.
The village chief of Xiayaowazi Village hurried out.
As soon as I was led here, I heard a shrill cry:
"Oh my God! This is killing me! My son finally bought some nourishing food for his daughter-in-law, but that awful old hag took it all away and brought it home!
"My unborn grandson has pity on me! I don't know if he can be born safely~"
Mrs. Feng cried bitterly.
There was a bit of acting in the beginning.
Later, the more I thought about it, the sadder I became.
These days, although we are not so poor that we have no food to eat, it is still difficult to get some supplements!
If it weren't for the baby in their daughter-in-law's belly, how could their family afford to buy those expensive things?
Just a little bit of it was enough to spend my son's entire month's wages.
But those things were eaten by outsiders before they even entered my daughter-in-law’s stomach!
"What a cursed thing! He even picks at a pregnant woman's belongings! My eldest grandson~"
After listening to what was going on, the people in Xiayaowazi understood what had happened and immediately felt their faces flushed.
Preferring sons over daughters exists in every family.
They also hope that their daughters can get some things from their husband's family to support their own family.
But having it exposed like this in public really makes one feel a little embarrassed.
What's more, that thing is used to nourish the grandson's body.
This is the grandson that the Feng family has been waiting for for a long time.
I heard that Feng Guozi's mother prayed to gods and Buddhas day and night to get it.
If someone's grandson dies because he didn't take the supplements, the two families will probably become enemies!
The village chief of Xiayaowazi Village also looked unhappy.
If this continues, the reputation of the girls in the village will be ruined.
He hurried in and said, "Mrs. Feng, please stop crying. If you have any questions, tell me and I'll help you solve them."
Mrs. Feng continued crying, slapping her thigh, as if she didn't hear anything.
The village chief looked a little unhappy.
Seeing that the Liu family's door was still closed and no one came out, his face became even gloomier:
"Someone go knock on the door! What are you doing? You just hide when something happens? Liu Hao, get out here! If your family ruins the reputation of the village today, you and your family will get out of the village!"
The village chief's threat worked.
The door of the Liu family was soon opened.
Revealing an old face with a flattering smile.
That’s Liu Hao’s father, Liu Dahai.
He smiled and invited the village chief into the house:
"Village chief, what are you talking about? You can't do that. If you have something to say, let's talk it out nicely. Let's talk it out nicely."
The village chief didn't waste any words and asked directly:
"Dahai, what the hell is going on? Who in your family took the Feng family's supplements and ate them? Why don't you tell me now? Now they're crying, what do you want me, the village chief, to do?"
When Liu Dahai heard this, the smile on his face disappeared:
"Village Chief, this, this must be some misunderstanding. How can we take things from the Feng family? The baby her daughter-in-law is pregnant with is also my grandson!"
The village chief rolled his eyes at him unhappily.
"Misunderstanding? Then tell me, what is the misunderstanding?"
If this was a misunderstanding, why would the Feng family come here crying like this?
Liu Dahai hesitated for a moment before smiling again and saying, "This... I don't know why she said that!"
The village chief frowned and turned to look at Mrs. Feng who was sitting on the ground crying.
"Sister Feng, please stop crying and get up and tell me what's going on."
Liu Dahai also did not feel guilty at all and echoed:
"Yes, in-laws. You came to the door so early in the morning, like you were mourning. It's really embarrassing. We are still in-laws! You can't be so unfair to me!"
Mrs. Feng raised her hand, wiped her tears, and was pulled up. She patted the dirt off her buttocks:
"Misunderstanding? Injustice? Liu Dahai, how dare you say you haven't eaten chicken or ginseng in the past two days?!"
Liu Dahai was about to deny it.
Someone from Xiayaowazi Village exclaimed:
"Hey! So that meat was taken from someone else! When I smelled the delicious chicken from your house the other day, I thought your husband was willing to buy chicken to eat!"
After all, they have quite a few chickens in their yard!
Liu Dahai's expression suddenly turned unnatural after being exposed like this:
"That...that was brought back by my son Liu Hao."
Seeing him like this, the village chief had no idea what he was talking about.
