Although the couple's shop had closed down, they still had a lot of savings. They didn't suffer any grievances while living with their in-laws. Their food and drink were all provided, and they hardly had to lift a finger. After she became pregnant and gave birth to the Chen family's eldest grandson, she was able to stand up straight even more, and her life was quite comfortable.
However, ever since this second sister-in-law married into the family, she has always been picking on her. In the past few days, the whole Chen family has been burning with anger because of Tang Xinxin's remarriage. Now that she has shouted it out so recklessly, she has not only offended Chen Yong's wife, but also insulted Chen Yong.
When it came to her son, Chen's mother was immediately unhappy. She had always ignored her two daughters-in-law's constant bickering and pretended not to know anything, but what was the second daughter-in-law saying? What did she mean by only being able to find a divorced man? Wasn't a divorced man referring to her son?
Especially since she was praising Tang Xinxin in her words, Old Mrs. Chen was furious and rushed out to slap Chen's second daughter-in-law.
Caught off guard by the sudden blow, Chen Lao Er's wife was completely stunned. It took her a while to recover before she burst into tears, wailing loudly. Forgetting everything else, she ran to the front hall with her hair disheveled and shouted at Chen Lao Er, who was cutting someone's hair, "Chen Le! Your family is going too far! I'm telling you this now, either you move out with me and we'll separate, or we'll get a divorce! I can't live like this anymore!"
At this moment, besides the Chen father and son, each with a customer in their hands, there were five or six people waiting on the sofa in the lobby. When Chen Lao Er's wife shouted like that, the entire lobby instantly fell silent. Chen Lao Er was so frightened that his hand trembled, and a dog-chewed bruise appeared on the customer's head.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry." Chen Lao Er hurriedly apologized to the customer. Fortunately, the customer was an old neighbor who lived in the town and had a good relationship with the Chen family. Although he was angry, he was too embarrassed to say anything and could only ask Chen Lao Er to cut it shorter and repair the damaged part.
Chen Lao Er's wife was still sobbing. Chen Lao Tai and Chen Yong's wife, who had chased after him, had frighteningly dark faces. Chen Lao Er quickly finished cutting the clothes in his hands, ignoring the unpleasant expressions of his regular customers, and said to the waiting customers, "I'm sorry everyone, I have some things to take care of at home today. Can you come another day? I'll give you all a 50% discount then!"
A haircut only costs a few dollars, and nobody cares about the discount. Everyone was a little dissatisfied with having waited so long for nothing, and they were more curious about what had happened to the Chen family. But Chen Lao Er had already told them to leave, so they had no choice but to get up and leave reluctantly.
Mr. Chen was finishing up his work, and he finished it faster than his second son. After seeing all the guests off, Mr. Chen adopted the demeanor of a patriarch and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Second son's wife, what are you doing now?"
Chen Yong was fast asleep in the room with his son. He hadn't woken up when his sister-in-law and his wife had been arguing, but their voices hadn't been loud enough. It was only when his second wife started wailing that he was finally awakened. He was still standing there, half-asleep, while his chubby son, clinging to his leg, looked completely dazed and had no idea what had happened.
When her father-in-law asked the question, Chen Lao Er's wife cried, "This is outrageous! It's one thing for them to eat and drink for free without doing any work, but if I buy anything nice, someone steals it the moment I turn my back, and I can't even say a word. All they do is eat and sleep all day. My husband and I work ourselves to the bone to support this whole family... If I say anything, my mother comes out and beats me! I've never been beaten by anyone before. Why? What did I say wrong? I dare to do it, but I can't even be criticized!"
