Growing up, my mom and grandma's family mailed me countless clothes. You guys, you pick them out first, and then sometimes you even step on them. Your own Huang family's children always wear my clothes. Have I ever told anyone about this? I haven't. I don't see the point in arguing with you. I can wear patched clothes as long as you don't go too far.
When I was in the first grade of junior high school, my mother saved money and used the remaining salary every month to buy me a watch. Now your eldest brother is wearing it, and your clothes are worn on you. How did you laugh at me? Have I ever told anyone about it?
Your eldest brother got his job because your mother used my mother's name. The company hired him to work in the factory to protect the martyr. I told you that the martyr is my father. Do you disagree?
A year later, the betrothal money for your second brother's wedding was remitted by my mother every month, the watch your second brother's girlfriend's girlfriend was sent to me by my second uncle, and the military coats worn by your eldest and second sister-in-law were sent to me by my two aunts. Have I told anyone about this?
Your mom went to ask my mom to intercede for your little brother's high school spot. Did I ever say your mom was deceiving the world?
All the dowry you wore was sent to me by my grandparents. The cashmere coat you wear was sent to me by my mother. The watch on your hand was sent to me by my mother. The cotton-padded jacket and trousers your son wears are new ones made by my mother. The sweater and trousers your son wears are knitted by my mother. These were all sent by my mother to her grandson.
How dare you say your mother raised me? Your father and mother treated me harshly, and you brothers and sisters ganged up on me, yet you still use my mother's, my grandfather's, my aunt's, and my younger aunt's possessions. Where is your conscience?
After I got pregnant, my mother, my grandfather, my two aunts and my aunt sent 28 packages in the past 8 months, and I didn't see a single one.
No wonder people say I suck the blood of one person to support your five families: your first wife, your two sisters-in-law's families, your maternal family, the Huang family, and your own husband's family, the Wang family. How can you be so arrogant as to take things from my grandfather's family? Where do you get the courage to take things that my mother sent me with so much effort?
"I've taken possession of it. Have I ever told anyone about it? But why did you even take my son's things? You even wore his new cotton-padded jacket, sweaters, and trousers. You even wore the cashmere coat my mother sent you to humiliate me and make fun of me. Now you've even come to my house to force me to admit that your family, the eldest son's family, didn't take possession of anyone else's property. You forced me to come to your house and swear at you less than three days after I gave birth. Where does your courage come from? Where do you have the cards that allow you to be so arrogant?"
They scrimped and saved, fearing I'd be wronged while pregnant, so they scraped together all the money my cousins and I sent to me. How could you be so shameless as to use up military mail? Who gave your father the guts to accept my military mail?
Military mail is for soldiers, so your father knew it wasn't a secret? When my grandparents find out about this, I'll see if the county jail is big enough to hold all five of you. You're so bold! My father is a martyr, my mother is a soldier, fighting on the front lines for a new China and a new socialism. And you take my property for granted? Who gave you the guts?
You are the master of the country. You can collect the military mail of anyone you want. Who gives you the courage to ignore the country's military law? Who gives you the courage to ignore the country's laws and the secrets of military mail?
There's also a rumor in the county town that whenever your grandfather stamped his foot in the capital, the city would shake three times. Who told you to say that? How could my biological grandfather become your grandfather? Your family has robbed my family and now wants to rob my family, and even insult my grandfather's patriotism. My grandfather followed the Chairman in the capital. When did he ever become so powerful? Or is your Huang family's maternal grandfather so arrogant that he fabricated and spread rumors? Zhou Xue, who came up with this?
After you got married, you dared to say that your grandfather took your whole family to the capital and didn't care about this remote place. Why can't this land accommodate you? This land feeds the villagers, and it is also this land that feeds you. Why don't you go to heaven?
Whose grandfather can stamp his feet in the capital and have it shake? What does this mean? This is a riot to restore the monarchy. Right now, the whole country is fighting against imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucratic capitalism. It's so hard to get everyone to make their own decisions, for the people are in charge. Why are you so deliberately stirring up public opinion in favor of feudalism and the monarchy? Are you planning a counter-revolution?
My own grandfather, my mother's father, and three generations of his children and grandchildren all joined the army. His eldest son sacrificed his life for the new China, and my uncle became a martyr. His eldest grandson, my eldest cousin, is now in the northwest, defending our country and ready to fight at any moment. All the descendants of the Lin family are fighting on the front lines, in the most dangerous areas.
My grandfather, my biological grandfather, grew up an orphan, followed Chairman Mao in the revolution, and narrowly escaped death several times, all to drive out the Japanese invaders and bring peace to the world, shedding blood and tears alongside those veteran revolutionary martyrs. Is this how you guys are exploiting him?
My grandmother, my biological grandmother, joined the revolutionary team when she was young. She is now in poor health due to overwork and often goes to the hospital alone. All her children are on the front line.
Zhou Xue, what on earth do you want to do? Are you trying to cause trouble?
"Does your father know about the remarks you've made? Does your mother know about them? Does your grandfather from the Huang family know about them? Does your husband's family, the Wang family, know about them?"
Zhou Jiao almost shouted with tears in her eyes at the end. After she finished shouting, she quickly squeezed Zhang Guoqing's hand and asked him to support her as she walked through the crowd. Everyone automatically took a few steps back. Many people were still in a daze and had not yet realized what was going on.
Zhou Jiao saw Old Man Zhou from afar. His face was ashen and his whole body was trembling. She was secretly anxious. She must not faint. If he really fainted, what kind of person would she become?
Zhou Jiao quickly dragged Zhang Guoqing to the front of Grandpa Zhou, without saying a word, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said in a tragic tone: "Grandpa, I have failed your education, but the county is full of ups and downs, and the rumors released by Zhou Xue are everywhere. I can't let my grandfather down. Now the rumors are spreading. Who can guarantee the sincerity of the Zhou family and the Lin family for a long time? You are also an old revolutionary with a patriotic heart. In our Zhou family, our great-grandfather protected the comrades on the front line for the revolution. "The Japanese invaders came and wiped out our entire family. Nearly a hundred people in our family were massacred by the Japanese. From centenarians to babbling babies, all died under the Japanese bayonets. In our Zhou family, my father became a martyr at a young age. Now in the new China, with the new socialism under the leadership of the Chairman, who would dare to do such a thing? Grandpa, please take a look at who instilled such a terrible idea in Zhou Xue." After saying this, he squeezed Zhang Guoqing's hand again. Zhang Guoqing hurriedly pulled Zhou Jiao up. Zhou Jiao collapsed on him and grabbed his hand again. He scratched his palm once, but she was really afraid to scratch it more. This fool thought he was asking her to wait. Fortunately, he knew to hold her up this time. She closed her eyes and heard only applause. She passed the test.
Zhang Guoqing said to Mr. Zhou, "Grandpa, come in and sit with me. Jiaojiao was born safely just two days ago and is very weak. I'll take her back first."
After saying that, Zhang Guoqing carried Zhou Jiao and quickly walked back to the yard from the gate, followed by his family. He whispered to Zhou Jiao, "Jiaojiao, they are all here."
Zhou Jiao was anxious, and immediately opened her eyes and whispered, "There must be someone at the door. They are coming, and don't let that evildoer in."
Zhang Guoqing looked at the two brothers with their heads covered and said to Zhang Dad, "Dad, tell my two brothers who is coming and make preparations first. Don't let anyone in."
Seeing the door to the west wing, Zhou Jiao hurried down and pushed Zhang Guoqing with her hand, "Go out and finish it quickly. Don't think too much. Just keep a normal mind."
Looking at the second sister-in-law who didn't know whether to come in or go out, she said in circles, "Second sister-in-law, come in and sit down. Don't be afraid. Nothing will happen to you from now on."
"Jiaojiao, aren't you afraid? There are so many people here in the dark, and you spoke so well that I was stunned. I was so scared when I saw you faint that I followed you in." Lin Juhua patted her chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and said quickly.
"It's okay, second sister-in-law. If the person wearing military uniform who comes today is my grandpa's family, you won't be afraid. I'll give you a plan to please my mother-in-law. Second sister-in-law, you go and help our mother come in first, and then give a few thanks to their grandfather outside." Zhou Jiao said to her with a smile.
"Then I'll go out. Can you do it alone?"
"Okay, that's great. I'm fine. I was just pretending to be fine. Otherwise, it would be difficult to get away."
