"Ningjing, thank you so much, your brother Dazhu and I!"
She gripped Ning Jing's hand tightly, her eyes slightly moist.
There was really no other way. When the groom's family found out about Genlin's wedding, they didn't even offer to lend a hand or help.
Genlin's grandmother came over a few days ago to ask for her retirement money.
Her family had already given the money, but her mother-in-law insisted that she had been sick a few days ago and that her family should pay half of the medical expenses.
Zhao Dazhu left with nothing, and it was clearly stated at the time that he would only give his parents money for their old age, and the rest could be provided by his other sons.
Now, they're asking them to share half the cost? How can that be right?
No matter how you look at it, she is Zhao Dazhu's biological mother. How can you not let your son support his own mother?
Because of this, Wang Guihua and Zhao Dazhu were so angry that they didn't speak to each other for several days.
When it came time to borrow money from her parents' home, Wang Guihua went alone.
All he wanted was to prove himself and not let Zhao Dazhu and his brothers look down on him.
Ning Jing watched as Wang Guihua turned her head away, then used the corner of her clothes to dab at the corner of her eye.
Wang Guihua was unaware that Zhao Dazhu's mother, Zhou Lanni, had been sulking ever since she returned from the third son's house in a huff.
Fang Qiaolan, the wife of the eldest son Zhao Dajun, glanced at her mother-in-law sitting in the middle of the living room, and then nudged her husband.
"Tell me, did the third brother's family give the money to Mother?"
Zhao Dajun rolled his eyes at her. Stupid woman, his mother is so angry she's back, how could she possibly succeed!
To be honest, his mother was really something.
Why bother going after the third son's family who were left penniless back then?
Even if the third son is willing, would his wife be willing?
However, since the family hasn't split up yet, even if Mom takes a share, it still belongs to everyone.
However, after glancing sideways at the fourth brother's house, a sense of resentment welled up in his heart again.
Although he was the eldest son in the family, he didn't have the courage of the third son to leave with nothing. Otherwise, he would have preferred to separate the family sooner.
"Eldest son's wife, second son's wife, why aren't you going over there to cook?"
The old lady sulked all day, and not a single one of her sons or daughters-in-law came in to comfort her.
Feeling incredibly stifled, she raised her voice and screamed.
"Mom, I'm cooking!"
Fang Qiaolan hurriedly ran to the kitchen and spoke to Zhou Lanni.
Then, Liu Yun, the fourth son's wife, came out of the kitchen, holding an apron and patting her sleeves and front. She was heavily pregnant.
Upon hearing Fang Qiaolan's words, a half-smile appeared on her face.
"Sister-in-law, I've already prepared the food, what are you still doing in the kitchen?"
Fang Qiaolan peeked into the kitchen and sure enough, a plate of wild vegetables and several bowls of porridge were already laid out on the stove.
She quickly pushed Liu Yun aside and ran inside, carefully examining the depth of the bowl.
The porridge in the bowl was only about half full.
She immediately lost her temper, pointed at the bowls of porridge, and yelled at Liu Yun in a shrill voice, "I say, fourth sister-in-law, we haven't separated the family yet, how can you steal the food rations of the men in the family?"
Liu Yun's hand, which was covering her stomach, stiffened slightly, then she looked up and tugged at the corner of her mouth.
"Sister-in-law, I don't like hearing you say that."
What do you mean I stole the food from the men in my family?
Which eye did you see that with?
You were supposed to cook today, but I kindly cooked for everyone, and now you're trying to turn the tables on me?
Mother, my sister-in-law has wronged me so much, how can I live like this?
Waaaaah…
