Chapter 77
At this time, Courtyard No. 2 seemed like a big market. People came in one after another, and from time to time someone squeezed out, and then danced with the people standing outside to share the great value items they bought, oh no, they were gesturing to describe what was happening inside.
Bi Chunliu: ? ? Could it be that they're secretly showing movies in the compound...
After finally squeezing into the courtyard, Bi Chunliu realized that this was not much different from showing a movie! No wonder there were so many people!
The film's heroine is Liu Qingqing, a young woman who suffers a miscarriage at the hands of her evil mother-in-law, though she's not currently present. The hero is Nie Xiangdong, heartbroken by the hurt of his beloved's mother, yet determined to protect her. The villain is Bai Xingzi, a man filled with evil, flailing about and cursing the world for their wrongs, surrounded by a swarm of bystanders.
There were too many people, and Bi Chunliu didn't want to go into the house. If he went in, there would definitely be other people who wanted to come into his house, so he decided to squeeze outside and watch.
"Oh my God, why don't you send down a thunderbolt to kill you, you unfilial child? Your father just had an accident, and you took your brother and separated from the family. Why did we raise you to this age and even find you a wife? In the end, you don't care about your parents, and only listen to your bitch wife—"
Bai Xingzi sat on the ground crying and making a fuss, wishing she could first hit her unfilial eldest son to death, and then hit herself to death.
Nie Xiangdong hadn't slept the entire night before. His eyes were bloodshot, his face flushed with anger, his chest heaving violently, and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Don't you feel guilty about saying that?! Qingqing wasn't feeling well yesterday, and you made her do this and that. If you hadn't pushed her and kicked her, how could she have had a miscarriage?! Am I not your biological son? Isn't Qingqing's belly carrying your own grandson?! How could you do this to us?!"
Bai Xingzi continued to cry for her father and mother, crying that her son didn't care about their affairs, crying that her son was disobedient, crying that her daughter-in-law was not filial to her parents-in-law. In short, her son and daughter-in-law were not good at anything, and she and her old man suffered in every way!
Bi Chunliu: ...So what Bai Xingzi wants to say is that Nie Xuesong is suffering? She recalled Nie Xuesong's appearance in her mind. He wasn't handsome, so why was Bai Xingzi so devoted? Could Bai Xingzi be the legendary love-brained person? The more she thought about it, the more likely it was! Hiss~ As expected! Love-brained people can be so terrifying even when they're old!
At this time, she heard the people next to her discussing.
"How can this old woman treat her own daughter-in-law like this? Look at what her son has become? Mom, I really don't know until I see it. I will know it once I see the mothers-in-law outside. They are really as different as heaven and earth compared to you. Mom, the happiest thing about my marriage to Daguang is that I met a mother-in-law like you..." A young wife with a big belly held the arm of her mother-in-law and spoke affectionately.
The old woman nodded her daughter-in-law's head with a frown, "You, all you know is to say nice things to Daguang to coax me..."
"No way!" the young wife retorted unconvincedly, "I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart! This is all from the bottom of my heart!! I've never met a mother-in-law as kind as you!"
The old woman was so amused by her daughter-in-law that she couldn't stop laughing.
Bi Chunliu admired her: "With such a talkative mouth, she will succeed in everything she does..." But who is this person? I don't think I've seen him before.
"Director Yao is here——"
Bi Chunliu: He came, he came, he came with his dark face...
Director Yao squeezed in through a small path made by everyone, as if he was a big boss with his own background music.
"Director Yao..." Bai Xingzi rushed over swiftly, "You have to make the decision for me..."
Director Yao, who was pounced on again, had already pulled up his pants in advance. "If you have something to say, just say it. Crying is useless!"
"Director Yao, my mother caused my wife to have a miscarriage yesterday. I didn't come home all night and rushed back this morning to get money, only to find my mother rummaging through our things! She said we were unfilial to her, and I want to know how we treated her badly? Did we make her do hard work or scold her? Ever since she came back, she's been staring at me and my wife, muttering to herself. She stays awake late at night, standing by our beds and threatening us, asking for money, meat, or other delicious food, and making my wife serve her this and that. Just tell me, aren't we good enough to her? We're almost worshipping her, and in return, she treats us like this. My wife is pregnant with my own flesh and blood!"
Nie Xiangdong complained a lot, expressing all his resentment towards his mother during this period.
Onlookers: "Huh!~"
Not to mention the people in other courtyards, everyone in this courtyard was extremely surprised. I really didn't expect Bai Xingzi to live such a good life after returning. Isn't this the same as the old Buddha before?
Bai Xingzi cursed him hysterically, "Bullshit! You're a fool who married a wife and forgot his mother! You just do whatever your wife says! I'm your mother, shouldn't you support me? I didn't kick her at all. She was the one who bumped into me. How can she blame me for not being able to keep the child?" Bai Xingzi then cursed Nie Xiangxi, who was not present. "You and the second child are both worthless! You don't even talk about being considerate of your parents, but one listens to your wife and the other listens to your father-in-law. How dare you divide the family property without telling your parents! I'm going to sue you!"
Nie Xiangdong took two steps back, as if he had suffered a heavy blow in his life!
Director Yao pounded his head in frustration. He couldn't continue this job. These people had worn out their enthusiasm for work!
"The division of the family is another matter. So, Xiangdong, how is your wife now? Will anyone be watching her when you return?" He had heard that women who have had miscarriages like this are the most vulnerable. If one of them gets carried away and ends up killing someone, Nie Xiangdong will lose both his child and his wife.
Nie Xiangdong said bitterly, "Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhang from our hospital are watching over him. I paid the money, and the doctor told me to take him home tomorrow."
Director Yao: "Okay." He squatted down and whispered to Bai Xingzi with a mixture of threats: "Bai Xingzi, you are still under control. Have you forgotten? If your daughter-in-law sue you, you may be put back in jail because of this. You said you want to sue your son and daughter-in-law. This may not be a big deal for your daughter-in-law, after all, she doesn't have a job, but it will have a big impact on your son. I suggest you talk to your son directly if you have any problems. If they sue you for harm, it will be even worse for you!"
Bai Xingzi's pupils contracted and a flash of fear passed through her mind. She took Director Yao's words to heart and realized that she had indeed forgotten her current situation.
Director Yao stood up. "What do you think, Comrade Bai?"
Bai Xingzi stood up and whispered, "I won't sue."
Nie Xiangdong: "Director Yao, my mother took our money."
"Bullshit! That's clearly your father's and mine!" Bai Xingzi jumped up again.
Director Yao: "...How much?"
"Three hundred and sixty."
"You have no conscience! I only found a hundred, and you are not afraid of biting your tongue when you say such a boast!" Bai Xingzi now realized that the eldest and second sons were useless and could not be relied on for anything! Alas, why did the head of the family go to the northwest?
"You two can discuss the money later. Comrade Bai Xingzi, think about your current situation and stop making a fuss! Xiangdong, your mother hasn't had it easy either. You should look for her again."
"Okay, everyone, please disperse. Why are you always hanging around other people's houses? If you have nothing to do, go and study and improve your thinking!" Director Yao scolded them.
Bi Chunliu: I always feel like Director Yao is hiding something...
The people around were scratching their heads, wondering what Director Yao had just said to Bai Xingzi. It was so noisy, and Director Yao's voice was so soft, they couldn't hear anything! It was so frustrating not being able to understand the excitement!
Bi Chunliu opened the door of her house only after most of the others had left. Just as she was about to cook, she saw that someone had secretly plucked the green onions under her windowsill.
!!!
I'm so angry! How come my family suffers losses when the Nie family quarrels?! This is such an unexpected disaster!
The crowd dispersed, and Bi Chunliu heard the two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who had been talking also went to the courtyard. These two people were Uncle Qi's sister-in-law Aunt Li and his daughter-in-law Chu Xinxin.
When Deng Hong took her daughter home, she saw so many people in the compound that she didn't go home because she was afraid that they would be squeezed by people. In addition, Deng Shan also came. Deng Hong waited for Qi Chao who was off work, and then the four of them went to a state-owned restaurant to eat noodles.
After dinner, Qi Yalan skipped along in front, Qi Chao followed behind, looking at his daughter with a smile on his face. Deng Hong, on the other hand, tried to persuade her sister to meet the man she had mentioned. She finally convinced Director Zhang, who agreed to let his son meet Deng Shan.
"Don't be silly, listen to me. How can I introduce you to that unreliable family? Director Zhang's husband is the deputy county chief in the county below. Director Zhang's son is about to graduate and has been assigned to the Grain Bureau. What a great unit! If I hadn't begged her, Director Zhang would never agree to let her son meet a family like us!"
Deng Shan felt like his sister was being flattered by a piece of cake that had fallen from the sky. "Sister, you've already said that, with such good conditions, how could he still be interested in me?"
Deng Hong: "...What's wrong with you? You're good-looking, well-behaved, and now you're a teacher. Except for our family, we're not inferior to his!"
Deng Shan: "Sister, what you said makes me feel guilty..."
"Why are you feeling guilty? Just go when the time comes!" Deng Hong said.
“…”
Deng Hong took her sister home. She bought some fruits yesterday and planned to let Deng Shan take them home to eat. She also wanted to let Ah Shan take some clothes home. After all, she couldn't wear clothes with two patches on them when meeting someone, right?
"Oh, big brother, I don't want it. You save it for Yalan. She is still young and in the growth stage. Xinxin and I are adults. There is no need for us to eat this..."
Deng Hong recognized that it was the voice of her second aunt, curled her lips, and quietly pulled her sister. She wanted to see what this hypocritical girl was going to say!
"Yalan has food. This is what her mother bought for her. What else can she need? Xinxin, take it quickly. This is, this is what I give to the baby in your belly." Uncle Qi swallowed the word "Dad".
"Uncle, we don't want it. You can keep it for yourself or give it to my sister-in-law. She's been working hard in class."
"She doesn't need it. Your sister-in-law is as strong as a bull!"
Deng Hong: ???
Awesome? Me?
