July 20, 1969, Shanqiao Village, Longguo.
Yu Jinhua went to the market in town early in the morning, intending to buy some daily necessities for her home, and also to bring some supplements to nourish her daughter. Her daughter had been married in town for three years and had no children. Fortunately, her son-in-law was a sensible man, otherwise her daughter's life would be difficult.
Yu Jinhua had no idea that her son-in-law was a mean person who said one thing in front of her and another behind her back. He did that just to gain a good reputation for himself.
It must be that Lu Zhiwei is too good at pretending. People who don’t understand him can easily be deceived by his face.
After arriving in the town, Yu Jinhua got off the ox cart and went to look for her daughter happily. She then knocked on the door of her son-in-law's house.
The door creaked open, and it was her daughter who opened it.
Yu Jinhua was happy but she was not carried away by her happiness. She seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
"Mom, why are you here?" Gu Xiuhua asked in surprise. Yes, the woman's name was Gu Xiuhua.
"What are you talking about, kid? I, as your mother, came to see what's wrong with you." Yu Jinhua heard her daughter's words and knew that she didn't mean that.
"No, mother, that's not what I meant. Come in and talk first. It's not good to stand outside."
"I know."
"Oh, my mother-in-law is here." The woman then said politely, "Since my mother-in-law is here, what else do you want to bring?" But her hands were not polite at all, and she snatched the basket from Yu Jinhua.
Yu Jinhua sighed inwardly. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, since they were her daughter's in-laws after all, she couldn't say much to avoid embarrassing her daughter.
"Bring it here to nourish Xiuhua."
"Okay, mother-in-law, you two can catch up on the past. We won't bother you anymore." After the woman took the things away, she didn't want to talk to Xiaobei's mother in the first place. Before leaving, she gave her a fierce look to indicate to her what to say and what not to say.
Gu Xiuhua agreed softly: "Okay."
"What's going on? Tell me." Yu Jinhua followed her daughter into the room and closed the door before asking.
"Mom, how did you...see that?"
"Your mother, although I am a country woman, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. What's going on?"
“………………”
After Gu Xiuhua finished speaking tearfully, she suddenly stood up.
Yu Jinhua slapped the bedside table and said, "Pack two sets of clothes now. We're going home to stay for a few days."
"mother."
Yu Jinhua was so angry that she couldn't say anything about her mother-in-law wasting time. After all, her daughter had married into her son-in-law's family. But her son-in-law, whom she was so proud of, cheated on her and this was a big deal. Wasn't this a slap in her daughter's face? "Where are your clothes? In the closet? Okay, okay, if you don't take them, I will." As she said this, she opened the closet and packed up her daughter's clothes.
"Mom, don't be like this." Gu Xiuhua might have been scared by her husband's beatings, so she chose to endure it.
"Now, in this beast's house, I can't say anything. I'll teach you a lesson when I get home."
After Yu Jinhua packed her clothes, she turned around and pulled her daughter away from the wolf's den without caring about anything else. The old couple was still in their room. They just heard a heavy sound of the door closing. They had no idea that their daughter-in-law, who usually took good care of them, was taken back by her own mother.
The woman cursed inwardly, "What is that little bitch trying to do? The door is so heavy, what if it breaks?"
"Okay, stop talking and go out and take a look." When the two of them went out, they found that the whole house was very quiet, as if there was no one else in the house except the two of them.
"Where's that bitch? And her mother? Oh, I'm dying! How can I bring things to my wife's parents and then take them back? That little bitch must be gossiping in front of her own mother." Gu Xiuhua's mother-in-law had a bad temper to begin with. Seeing her daughter-in-law, who usually didn't dare to say a word when she scolded her, actually dared to sneak back to her parents' home just because her own mother was here, how could she tolerate this? The old woman didn't care and just started yelling.
"You are the boss."
"Okay, stop howling. Why are you yelling so loudly when no one is around? Are you afraid that the residents next door won't hear you?" Gu Xiuhua's father-in-law is a man who cares about his reputation. To put it bluntly, he is a male chauvinist. Although he is very angry, now is not the time. After his son comes back, he will let his son teach his ignorant daughter-in-law a lesson.
"Let's talk about it after Zhiwei comes back. What's the point of making a fuss now? The daughter-in-law has already gone back to her parents' home with her mother."
"I told you that bitch would never settle down. When my son comes back, I'll make sure he leaves this little bitch behind."
After Yu Jinhua took her daughter to the market to buy daily necessities needed for the family, she took her daughter back to the village.
During the whole journey, Gu Xiuhua rarely spoke since she left the Lu family. Yu Jinhua felt distressed when she saw her daughter like this and said, "Xiuhua, you've lost weight."
"mother."
"When I married you, I hoped that you would find a good family and live happily together. But who would have thought that man was such a beast in human form, saying one thing to your face and another behind your back. If she had known this, she would not have married her daughter to such a big man. It would have been much better to marry her to the neighboring village so that she could take care of her. Unfortunately, she only went to the town once after a long time after marrying there. In addition, for various reasons, my daughter suffered so much." Yu Jinhua was regretting it so much at this moment.
"Mom, when the Lu family proposed to me, you asked me about it, and I agreed. You can't blame me for this. I should blame myself for not being able to give birth to a child for Zhiwei in three years."
