A baby's sharp cry woke up Bai Xuan who was sleeping soundly, and at the same time there was the sound of banging on the door outside.
Bai Xuan could only get up with difficulty and drag her tired body to coax the baby. After finally feeding and coaxing the child, the knocking on the door became louder and louder, and she even suspected that the child's brows were furrowed.
Bai Xuan had no choice but to go open the door. As soon as she opened it, she saw Yao Hehua standing in front of the door with an angry face.
"Bai Xuan, can you look after the child? The child is crying so loudly that it disturbed your father who was sleeping next to him and almost gave him a heart attack."
"You're a woman who doesn't work and can't even take care of a child. What's the point of having you? You're the one who feeds my son and lives with him. How dare you not take care of him?"
Seeing that Yao Hehua's saliva was almost spraying on her face, Bai Xuan took a step back with an ugly expression.
Yao Hehua still didn't let her go.
"Don't think you can become a queen just by giving birth to a son. When I gave birth to three of them, I went to work in the fields as usual the next day.
What about not being able to touch cold water, not being able to work, and not being able to get out of bed? You are so pampered. These are all excuses for you to be lazy.
She is simply a maidservant with a princess’s life.”
Bai Xuan listened to Yao Hehua's non-stop chatter and felt like her head was about to explode. She even wanted to throw the old woman off the building so that she would shut up completely.
If Lu Xiu De had not been demoted, his family would not have to squeeze into this small, shabby house and would have taken the two old people in to live with them.
They wanted to rent a house for them, but they didn't have enough money.
Now Lu Xiu De is the only one earning money in the family, and his salary has been reduced. The little money he earns every month is not enough to pay the rent, take care of the family's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and take care of a baby.
The key point is that Lu Xiu De said that he would pay for the majority of the retirement expenses, so there was no choice but to bring Lu Jianzhong and Yao Hehua to live with them.
The family of five squeezed into this small two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment and quarreled all day long. Bai Xuan didn't even have a good confinement period and was so angry that she didn't even have enough milk.
Suddenly there was a noise at the door. It turned out that Lu Xiu De was returning home from get off work.
Yao Hehua felt more confident now that her son was back.
"It's all because of you, this broom spirit, that my son got demoted. You're even worse than Wei Qin. She used to be my daughter-in-law, taking care of both of us and helping my son become a big boss."
When Bai Xuan heard the old woman say that she was not as good as an old woman, her anger was instantly ignited.
"Hello, you and that old man pretend to be sick even though you are not sick. You keep complaining all the time and have ruined all the blessings of the family.
You're always looking for trouble, waiting for us to quarrel, right? Don't think I didn't see you two old men laughing so hard when you peeped in on us quarreling."
Yao Hehua used her ultimate move directly, sitting down on the ground and clapping her hands continuously.
"Oh my God, why don't I just die? I'm too old to move, my daughter-in-law despises me and scolds me, I don't want to live anymore, just let me die."
Lu Xiu De, who had originally wanted to pretend not to see anything, had no choice but to come over and help Yao He Hua up.
"Mom, please get up quickly. When have we ever disliked you?"
While saying this, he winked at Bai Xuan, asking her to apologize to his mother and not to anger the old woman at this critical moment.
Bai Xuan was so angry that she had no place to vent, so how could she possibly apologize to Yao Hehua? Besides, if she apologized this time, she would have to apologize every day in the future. Bai Xuan turned her head away.
He slammed the door shut, ignoring the mother and son acting out in front of him.
Lu Xiu De had no choice but to coax Yao Hehua himself. When Yao Hehua saw that Bai Xuan had left, she went back to her room.
After returning, he whispered it to Lu Jianzhong.
"This new daughter-in-law needs to be disciplined. This time she was so angry that she closed the door. We can't let her off so easily next time."
Lu Jianzhong also nodded and said, "You have to let her know who is the boss of this family. Otherwise, how will we support ourselves in the future? Otherwise, this damn girl will ride on our heads."
Yao Hehua gave Lu Jianzhong a thumbs up and said, "Old man, you really know a lot."
Lu Jianzhong smiled complacently, "From now on, just do whatever I say. I guarantee we won't suffer any loss."
Lu Xiu De, who was sitting in the living room, was so tired that he didn't want to move at all.
But Bai Xuan called out again, "Lu Xiude, change your son's diaper quickly."
"Hurry up and mop the living room!"
"Hurry up and cook, or order takeout, otherwise what will the family eat?"
…
After finishing all this, Lu Xiu De collapsed on the sofa exhausted, not wanting to say a word.
He felt that this was not the life he wanted. This family was suffocating him, and he felt that he was no longer Lu Xiu De.
He was ridiculed by his former subordinates at work, and had endless work and lawsuits at home. All of this made him doubt this home. Is this still the home he imagined?
He wants to escape from this home.
The old idea came up again, but once it came out, he could never let it go.
After Lu Ziyin went to see this matter once, he told Xia Feng about it. Xia Feng didn't react in any other way and just laughed it off as a joke.
Since then, Lu Ziyin rarely went there, and he didn't even attend his father's wedding.
Ever since his father got divorced, he and his father have become distant. Even now, they don't know what to talk about when they meet, and the relationship between father and son is just awkward.
——
As soon as Xia Feng came out of the beauty salon, she saw someone secretly pointing at her.
Suddenly, two women rushed out and threw the things in their hands at Xia Feng. Xia Feng was quick to retreat.
Before she could stand still, she heard a cry of surprise from the front.
"Ahh, something hit my face."
"What the hell? Why does it stink so bad?"
When someone took a closer look, they almost vomited.
"It's rotten egg water, cough cough cough..."
Before he could finish his words, he started coughing due to the smoke.
When the two women saw that they missed Xia Feng, they rushed towards her, shouting.
"Wei Qin, you old witch!"
The bottle in their hands was thrown towards her, but Xia Feng dodged sideways, and the two women were about to attack directly.
Although Xia Feng didn't know the identities of the two people, if they wanted to hurt her, she would not be polite.
He kicked the woman on the left side directly in the knee, causing her to scream in pain.
"Ah!", he fell directly to the ground and slid past Xia Feng's feet.
As for the other one, she stretched out her hand to hit her in the face, but Xia Feng showed no mercy and kicked her in the abdomen, sending her flying backwards.
The people behind were so scared that they quickly hid aside, and saw the woman rolling past their feet like a bead with madness in her eyes.
Just as the woman was about to stand up, Xia Feng walked up to her and kicked her down, and she dared not move again.
Later, Yuan Xin brought people out to check the situation here. Why did people suddenly gather together? They just heard screams.
When I squeezed in, I found that there were three people in a circle. Xia Feng was standing there expressionless, while the other two fell to the ground and wailed in pain.
Yuan Xin didn't know what to do for a moment.
Xia Feng happened to see her and shouted, "Call the police!"
Yuan Xin immediately took out his cell phone and did as he was told.
