The Zhu family has been very restless these days.
Zhu Wenying felt that her mother had really changed a lot. She used to stand on her side in everything and felt sorry for her because it was not easy for her to live in her husband's family. But now that she lives in her own family, she is criticized by her mother everywhere.
Before, her mother asked her not to do anything in her husband's family and wanted to let them all know that she was not a virtuous person as soon as she got married. She listened to her mother and did live a good life for several years.
If her mother-in-law hadn't suddenly exploded, she might have lived like this for the rest of her life.
Her mother also said that she and her husband should keep their wages in their own hands. After giving it to her parents-in-law, who knows where the money was spent, and they would not be able to get it back.
Moreover, when she first gave birth to Baoyuan, her mother said that she would be more confident with her grandson and could ask for more benefits from her parents-in-law because he was the first grandson of the Chen family.
She listened to these words so much that her whole family was kicked out.
Ever since their household registration was actually moved to the Zhu family a few days ago, her mother's words changed.
For example, it is not easy for the young couple to care about their parents and their younger brother.
For example, if she asked them to hand over their wages, she would feel more at ease.
For example, we are all adults, so of course we have to take on housework. Isn’t that necessary?
Anyway, everything was the opposite of what it was when she was at her husband's house, and Zhu Wenying quickly figured it out.
Her mother wanted her to bring trouble to her husband's family, so that she could get some benefits and take advantage of them. But once their own interests were involved, they would immediately turn their backs on her.
"Mom, I'm pregnant and not feeling well. Xiangdong is working overtime today and isn't back yet. Can't you wash the dishes first? I'll ask him to wash the dishes for you for a day when it's your turn next week." Zhu Wenying's face was full of fatigue. Since she came home, she had more and more things to do.
At the beginning, her mother asked them to pay household expenses. Of course, the couple agreed and gave her mother five yuan per person. However, as soon as Xiangdong put the money into her mother's hand, it was thrown on the table.
"You're sending beggars away. Whose household payment is so little?"
"Since you and our Zhu family are now one family, just hand over all your wages and I will take care of it."
Zhu Wenying was shocked. "Mom, you are too cruel. We handed over all the money, but what about my brother? Will he hand it over?"
Jiang Fangru: "I didn't ask you to hand it in before you got married. Your brother hasn't gotten married yet, so of course he doesn't have to hand it in either."
Zhu Wenying: "Then how do I know if you gave this money to him privately? He's not married yet, and when he does, it'll cost a lot more. Will you use my and Xiangdong's salary to subsidize my brother then?"
At this time, her mind became a little clearer. When she was in her husband's family, she didn't feel bad about things that were not hers or money that was not hers, so she often gave good things to her parents' home lavishly.
But when it came to her own salary, she wasn't happy. She and Xiangdong had to keep the money for their children. If she had the money, she could buy whatever she wanted and use it for the children's good things. If she gave it to someone else, she would have to work hard to earn money and then have to ask for it when she needed it. She wasn't that stupid.
Jiang Fangru threw the rag in her hand onto the table. "What do you mean? What's wrong with giving your brother a little subsidy? You're a married daughter who was driven back with her husband and children, and you're staying at your parents' house. Shouldn't you be giving your brother a subsidy?"
"Originally, after you got married, everything in our house belonged to your brother. He didn't have to fight for it, nor did he have to squeeze in with you. Now, I have to give you the room that was originally reserved for my grandson, and you are still not satisfied. No wonder your mother-in-law kicked you all out. You are too greedy."
Zhu Wenying also kicked the stool and said, "We were kicked out because of you. If you hadn't said those words to me, how could I have dared to do this?"
Jiang Fangru refused to give in. "I've taught you so much, but I didn't teach you to hit your mother-in-law. What daughter-in-law is so bold as to hit her mother-in-law? Ask your brother, if his wife hits me in the future, what will you do?"
Zhu Wenfei: "Of course I'm on my mother's side. If she hits my mother, I can't kill her. Do you really think all men are like that useless man of yours who didn't say a word when his own mother was beaten and still helped his wife to ruin his own family?"
Zhu Wenying yelled, "I'm doing this for you!"
Jiang Fangru: "Don't talk nonsense. What good has it done us by beating your mother-in-law? You've even caused your brother to lose such a good marriage. It's good enough that he's scolding you now. If you were really unreasonable like those others, I would have kicked you out long ago."
"I'm telling you, this house will always be your brother's, not yours. If you're smart, hand over your wages and take care of all the housework, or get out of here."
Zhu Wenying glared at her mother angrily. They didn't look like real mother and daughter, but more like enemies.
"Why should I leave? I've already moved my household registration here. I'm a member of the Zhu family. Why should I leave?"
Jiang Fangru laughed angrily, "Don't play rogue with me. If you really make me angry, I'll be like that old hag from your in-laws' family and change the door locks. Let's see how you get in."
Zhu Wenying: "If you really do this, just wait and see. I won't let you get too comfortable. Are you still asking my brother to see his wife?"
"When you find someone you like, I'll tell him he's a scoundrel. If that girl insists on marrying me, I'll go to their house and make trouble every day!"
"I said, the girl in their family is shameless. She has to stick to my brother. As his sister, I can't stand seeing her being worthy of my brother. I can be a sister who loves and cares for my brother, or I can say that it was you, Mom, who made me cause trouble."
"At worst, you can report me to the factory or the police station. I don't believe they can give me any good advice. Besides, I'm still pregnant. I want to see who dares to touch me!"
After she said this, she secretly added in her heart that her mother-in-law dared not only to touch her, but also to beat her and put the blame on her.
She didn't react at that time, so she took the initiative. In addition, her mother-in-law's image of being a slave at home was too deeply rooted in people's minds, so everyone believed it and no one listened to her explanation.
But her biological mother is different. Even though she pretends to be a decent person in public, she has no good girlfriends or any friendship with neighbors. That's impossible.
Her mother looked down on her neighbors from the bottom of her heart, so how could she interact with them? They were just friends when they met. The closest neighbors were some who worked in the same factory as her mother, so they were a little closer, but they only went to get off work together. Who would help her?
The neighborhood relationships here are different from those on her mother-in-law's side. Everyone is afraid of trouble and lacks human touch.
However, when there is something exciting to watch, everyone still runs very fast. Now there are no entertainment activities, and they don’t know what to do except watching the fun.
