"Comrade Lin is back." The guard greeted Lin Weiwan when he saw him coming back.
Lin Weiwan got off the bike and said, "Yes, I went to buy some cloth to make two pieces of clothes."
"Comrade Lin, here are your letters." The guard took out two letters and handed them to Lin Weiwan.
When I took them and looked at them, I found that one letter was from Dongsheng Village and the other was from Haishi.
"Thank you." Lin Weiwan took the letter and pushed the car into the family compound.
"Young people are different. If they want to make clothes, they just go and buy them. The night captain doesn't care." Old Mrs. Xu said to a few old ladies while waving a fan.
Lin Weiwan glanced at Old Lady Xu, turned her head and pretended not to see her, then pushed the cart and was about to leave.
"Look, he doesn't even say hello when he sees someone." Old Mrs. Xu continued to mutter.
Lin Weiwan stopped and looked at Mrs. Xu. "You are used to managing your own daughter-in-law. Do you want to manage other people's wives too? Do you have the right to manage them? I don't have a good attitude towards those who say bad things about me.
If you have any opinions about me, you can go and complain to Director Xia. You are not my mother-in-law, why are you pretending to be an elder in front of me? "
Old Mrs. Xu didn't expect Lin Weiwan to talk back. Usually, young wives in brothels would walk away in shame even if they were talked about, and no one dared to talk back.
Some of them have their own mothers-in-law around, and if they complain or make a fuss, they might get scolded.
Some people would not dare to break up with their mother-in-law even if they don't have her around, for the sake of their good reputation.
Although Mrs. Xu has only been here for a short time, she has gradually occupied an important position among the old ladies in the hospital.
"Look, look, how arrogant our brigade commander's wife is. She dares to bully the mother of her family in broad daylight. Come and take a look."
Old Mrs. Xu was not afraid of Lin Weiwan because her son Xu Xiaorong was not in the same system as Captain Ye.
The person in charge at the top is not just one person, but the family members of the family compound, who is more noble than the other.
Ever since Old Lady Wang was sent away last time, the young wives in this courtyard seem to be on the verge of turning over a new leaf and becoming the singing peasant slaves.
They are so lively and energetic that they don't even take their mother-in-law seriously. It's all because of Lin Weiwan.
When her mother-in-law is not around, she is the only one running around here. The night captain not only gets promoted but also pampers her.
I heard that the brigade commander was not only responsible for cooking and washing clothes that night, but also for cleaning. I really don't know what tricks this vixen used.
Women are supposed to be diligent and frugal in managing the household and reproducing offspring. These two kids have brought the atmosphere of the family compound astray.
The four old ladies all blamed Lin Weiwan, wishing they could eat the young wife in front of them.
If it were my own wife, she would have beaten the man a long time ago and let him do these things.
While criticizing Lin Weiwan, the old ladies also put themselves in the role of mother-in-law. They simply could not accept if their daughter-in-law behaved like this.
The soldiers on guard saw the old ladies were furious and ran over to stand beside Lin Weiwan and the girls, fearing that a physical conflict might break out.
Xia Jinghe ran in from home breathlessly and saw several old ladies blaming Lin Weiwan together.
"Shut up, what are you doing?"
When Mrs. Xu saw the director of women's affairs coming over, she stopped talking for a moment.
"Comrade Lin is bullying us old ladies by relying on his husband's high position. Director Xia, you have to stand up for us."
Another old lady named Sun pointed at Lin Weiwan and complained to Xia Jinghe.
"Yes, we must report and criticize her, hold a meeting, and let her reflect and admit her mistakes."
"Yes, yes, don't let her off so much. Nowadays, people emphasize respecting the elderly and loving the young. She is too sarcastic and mean. She is relying on the power of her man to do whatever she wants. She must be severely punished."
The four old ladies pointed at Lin Weiwan, looking as if they wanted to kick her out of the family compound.
It was already time for dinner, and many people heard the news and ran out to see the excitement.
Yang Cai and Liu Chunlan heard that Lin Weiwan was blocked by the old lady at the gate, and ran over with their children.
Aunt Miao pulled Lin Weiwan to her side and watched the group of mothers-in-law grow from four to eight.
"That's not the case, Director Xia. It was Mrs. Xu who saw Comrade Lin buy some cloth after work and said that Comrade Lin didn't know how to make a living.
The commotion started when he came in without saying hello to the girls. Comrade Lin did not use any extreme language.
The guard quickly reported the situation to Director Xia, and secretly decided that when he got married in the future he would never let his wife live with his mother.
Xia Jinghe looked at the old ladies who were dancing and knew everything. They were just looking for an excuse to intimidate them.
Ever since Old Lady Wang was sent away, the young wives in the family compound have straightened their backs and behaved themselves more decently, and many of them have even gone to work in textile factories.
These old ladies felt that their position in the family was threatened, so they just wanted to make trouble for the night brigade captain's wife.
These people are really not afraid of their sons being bullied. Their courage is truly commendable.
"Respecting the old and loving the young should be done based on whether they are worthy of respect. It's not enough for you guys to torture your own wives, but you also want to meddle in other people's affairs."
After hearing what the guard said, Miao Yuxiang naturally understood. This was also the reason why she had always been reluctant to marry her daughter into the family compound.
There are still only a few open-minded people. Many people think that their sons are too good and their daughters-in-law are too high for them, so they use their status as mothers-in-law to exploit their daughters-in-law in various ways. Marrying a daughter-in-law is like finding a slave in the house who works hard like a cow or a horse.
"Miao Yuxiang, you are everywhere. You haven't even cleaned your own butt yet, but you come out and meddle in other people's business." Old Mrs. Xu jumped up and pointed at Miao Yuxiang and started scolding.
"You old woman, you think you are right to say bad things about others. You act like a tyrant at home and then you go out to be an emperor. You can't bully Lin Weiwan today." Miao Yuxiang knew that people should be treated according to their nature.
When facing someone who is reasonable, be polite; when facing someone who is unreasonable, roll up your sleeves and fight them directly.
"You stinky bitch, why don't you mind your own business?" Old Lady Xu said, and her hand had already stretched out to grab Miao Yuxiang. She was fully showing her momentum to kill people in the village.
With Lin Weiwan's help, Miao Yuxiang dodged Mrs. Xu's attack. With one punch, Mrs. Xu got a black eye. Soon the fight between two people turned into a fight between two teams.
Many daughters-in-law pulled Xia Jinghe away in the name of mediating the fight.
Lin Weiwan had no intention of watching Aunt Miao being bullied. Although she was not good at other things, she was good at fighting.
“Stop fighting, stop fighting… someone come quickly.” Lin Weiwan squeezed in the crowd and shouted the loudest.
But her hands and feet were not idle. Anyone who attacked her during the chaos would surely be kicked.
Mrs. Xu was hit by Lin Weiwan's punches and lay on the ground, unable to get up.
He was shouting, "Someone's been beaten to death, son, come quickly."
In less than ten minutes, several soldiers arrived and pulled the crowd apart.
