Chapter 458: Neither Inside nor Outside
Wang Jinfeng really doesn't like listening to Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen talk. They can always stop you from saying anything.
She sighed, "Oh, I am such an annoying old woman. The young ones always talk about me in a bunch of different ways."
Lu Jingyuan said to Wang Jinfeng, "Grandma, our family is all about reason. If you have a reason that can convince my brother and sister-in-law, why wouldn't they listen?"
Wang Jinfeng ignored him and could only act like a rogue and said to Lu Guojiu, "Look, look, Second Brother, look at this kid of yours. Each one is more talkative than the other. They have no respect for an old lady like me."
Lu Guojiu said: "Mom, the children have all been to school, they are knowledgeable and understand etiquette and filial piety. What they said is not unreasonable. The food is getting cold. Let's eat quickly. After dinner, we are still busy."
Li Shaofen served Wang Jinfeng a bowl of soup: "Mom, have some soup."
Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen looked at each other and smiled. Their family was cooperating well now.
Wang Jinfeng was so confused that she didn't know what to say. She could only eat. She had to stay for a few days anyway, so she took it slow.
After lunch, everyone became busy again. Wang Jinfeng saw that no one paid attention to her, so she went to her eldest son Lu Guoji's house.
To be honest, she felt guilty about the accident involving her eldest daughter-in-law and had never dared to face Jiang Lirong. However, she couldn't always avoid contact with her, so she came this time to see her.
When she arrived at her eldest son's house, the yard was deserted and there was no sound inside. She went in and found that her eldest son was not there. Only Jiang Lirong was half-lying on the kang, facing the door.
When Jiang Lirong saw Wang Jinfeng, she became very excited. She had always resented Wang Jinfeng. Although Wang Jinfeng was not the direct cause of her paralysis, she was also an important factor.
She has been lying in bed these days, and the resentment in her heart has been growing, but she has nowhere to vent.
Seeing Wang Jinfeng come in, she became furious: "What are you doing here?"
Wang Jinfeng also knew that her eldest daughter-in-law had resentment towards her, but she had never been afraid of Jiang Lirong, and she didn't have to be afraid now.
She said confidently, "Do I need to report to you when I come to my own son's house?"
Jiang Lirong said, "This is my home. You are not welcome."
Wang Jinfeng sat on the edge of the kang: "What does it matter whether you welcome me or not?"
At this time, Lu Guoji came back from the toilet and heard Wang Jinfeng's voice. He was so scared that he ran in quickly: "Mom, why are you here?"
Wang Jinfeng said, "I came to visit the second brother, and I came to see you too."
Lu Guoji said, "Mom, let's go to the west room to talk. Li Rong has been emotionally unstable since she got sick."
Wang Jinfeng nodded: "Let's go to the west room."
At this time, Jiang Lirong said to Wang Jinfeng, "Wang Jinfeng, you haven't done anything good in your life. Just wait, you will definitely be punished."
These words made Wang Jinfeng's hair stand on end. She was afraid of this curse and also afraid of retribution, because she knew how many unclean things she had done.
She pointed at Jiang Lirong and said, "You're getting your comeuppance now, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?"
Seeing this, Lu Guoji quickly pulled Wang Jinfeng out and forcibly dragged her out of the east room.
After entering the west room and closing the door, Lu Guoji said to Wang Jinfeng earnestly, "Mom, please don't bother with Lirong. She's already like this and in a bad mood. To be honest, Mom, I'm not a filial son. I don't have time to visit you and be filial to you. Now that Guosheng has so many problems, I can't help you share the burden."
Wang Jinfeng felt disappointed when she saw her eldest son, who now looked lifeless. This son had once been her pride, so why had he become like this?
This son was even less reliable now. She sighed, "Oh, forget it. Let's not talk about it anymore. Tell me, how did you end up like this? Look at the second son. How much better were you than him before? I always had high hopes for you, but you really disappoint me."
Lu Guoji sighed and said to Wang Jinfeng, "Mom, can't you be less snobbish? Can't you compare us like this? We are not outsiders, we are all your sons. If you had treated us all the same before, we would be brothers and respectful to each other. When the second brother was in trouble, we would help him. When we were in trouble, the second brother would also lend a hand. But you, you have taught us three brothers to be like enemies. What, now you want to be partial to us again? Mom, we are not children anymore. It's useless for you to continue like this."
Wang Jinfeng knew that Lu Guoji was right, but she didn't want to admit it. She didn't want to talk about it at this time: "Okay, okay, you all have a point. You go ahead and get busy. I'm going back to the second brother."
Lu Guoji followed Wang Jinfeng and said, "Mom, I advise you not to think of so many crooked ways. The second brother's family is upright. We treated them so well before, but now they still treat me as their eldest brother. They still remember to send me whatever they have. They also give me any odd jobs they can take back. They have done everything they can for me. If you make trouble again, I will stand on the second brother's side."
Wang Jinfeng didn't expect Lu Guoji to say that, because this son is actually a selfish person. Now that his family has become like this, he doesn't fight or compete anymore. This is indeed a surprise to Wang Jinfeng.
She looked at Lu Guoji: "Are you really willing to let this happen?"
In fact, it was more of her unwillingness. For so many years, she always felt that she was right and her mother-in-law was wrong. The fact that Lu Guojiu had a bad life before also proved that what she did was right.
But now everyone can see that Lu Guojiu is doing well, while Lu Guoji and Lu Guosheng are not. Doesn't this prove that I am wrong and my mother-in-law is right?
This is what Wang Jinfeng can't accept the most. Now, every time she thinks of the tone of her mother-in-law's education and the expression on her face when her mother-in-law told the elders in the family that she was wrong, she gets so angry that her teeth itch, so she is the one who is unwilling to accept it.
Lu Guoji nodded: "I am willing. Now I just hope Jingxue can fight for his reputation. I don't want anything else. I am very grateful now. My relatives are here. I don't want anything else. Mother, you really don't need to make trouble. The third child still hasn't realized his own mistakes. If this goes on, he will really be finished. Mother, you and the third child should turn back as soon as possible."
Wang Jinfeng was annoyed by what Lu Guoji said, because she knew that Lu Guoji was speaking the truth, but she didn't want to hear such truth, and she didn't want to admit it, so she said, "What do you know? It would be stupid not to use the opportunity. Forget it, I can't explain it to you clearly, just take care of your crazy wife." After that, she walked out of Lu Guoji's house.
Lu Guoji walked her out the door again. The mother and daughter didn't speak to each other during the journey, and the atmosphere was very cold.
Watching Wang Jinfeng leave, Lu Guoji sighed. Sometimes one has to figure things out by himself. Not to mention Wang Jinfeng, even Jiang Lirong on his kang is still full of resentment. She never thinks she is wrong.
Indeed, Jiang Lirong was lying on the kang with disheveled hair, her heart full of resentment towards others. Living was torture for her, and she was unwilling to die. She cursed Wang Jinfeng from the bottom of her heart that she would not die a good death.
