The third son is such an unfilial son. He forgot his mother after getting married! He has no conscience. His wife has raised the third son in vain!
Old Mrs. Lu, who was so angry that she was fuming, saw the third family eating pig's trotters happily, and she became even angrier.
What annoyed her was that she had raised her third son for nothing all these years, but when her third son had such delicious braised pig's trotters, he didn't even bother to offer them to her, his wife, first, but instead ate them secretly at home!
This must have been instigated by that woman Jiang Chunzao!
When old lady Lu thought of this, her chest began to beat fast. The old lady, who was usually full of energy, now felt really uncomfortable. She covered her chest and cried out twice.
At this time, the villagers of Lujia Village had just returned from work and were taking a lunch break. The whole Lu family followed the crowd home. Old man Lu was walking in front, carrying a hoe. From a distance, he saw his wife beating her chest and stamping her feet at the door of the third brother's house. He wondered what kind of trouble this old woman was going to cause again.
Thinking of this, Old Man Lu's face darkened for a moment, and he walked up to Old Lady Lu with big strides and said:
"Old woman, what are you doing here so early in the morning when you should be cooking at home?"
Old Man Lu originally thought that his wife would feel guilty after hearing this, but he didn't expect that when Old Lady Lu looked up and saw him, she immediately burst into tears:
"Oh my! Old man, you are finally back. You have to take charge of your wife. The third son is such an unfilial son, old man!
We have been raising an ungrateful bastard for so many years. Third brother, you have forgotten about me since you joined the army and became an officer. This ungrateful bastard would not even give me, his wife, the braised pig's trotters!"
No, what kind of nonsense is this old woman talking about?
Old man Lu looked at Old Mrs. Lu in confusion, thinking that his old woman was confused. Look at what this old woman is saying!
What do you mean by raising the third brother in vain? What do you mean by the third brother is an ungrateful person? What do you mean by the third brother having sauced pig's trotters but not giving them to her? This old woman must be talking nonsense because she is tired of the pig's trotters herself.
Tsk, how come this old woman has become such a greedy woman at her age? Not only does she want to eat braised pig's trotters, but she also drags the third child into it!
Old Man Lu looked down on Old Lady Lu for her useless appearance. Just when he was about to open his mouth to scold her, he heard the noise in the house and saw Lu Lin and Jiang Chunzao, who were leading their two children and Grandma Jiang and Grandma Jiang out of the yard. Jiang Chunzao saw Old Lady Lu crying and couldn't help but be surprised:
"Old lady, what are you doing? Why are you crying?"
Lu Lin and his group also looked at Old Lady Lu in confusion. Old Lady Lu made them even more angry. She jumped up and sneered at Jiang Chunzao:
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me?
Who am I? I am your mother-in-law! I am your mother-in-law, Jiang Chunzao!
You have to call me old lady!
You old lady, who are you calling me! You unfilial Jiang Chunzao! You still have the nerve to ask me why I am crying? If it weren’t for you, I would not have cried. Women like you should be arrested by the captain and dragged to the streets to be tortured! "
Old lady Lu let out all the anger in her stomach with these words and she felt refreshed immediately. The young old lady was about to say a few more words but Grandma Jiang and his wife, who were protecting their daughter, heard how old lady Lu was bullying their daughter and immediately rolled up their sleeves to have a fight with Old lady Lu.
As a result, Jiang Chunzao who was standing nearby was stopped. The old couple of the Jiang family didn't understand what the young lady meant. Why didn't she let them find Lu Laotian to talk it out?
Jiang Chunzao noticed his parents' confusion and smiled calmly. The old couple saw that there was something behind their daughter's smile and did nothing else.
When Old Mrs. Lu saw that the old couple from the Jiang family were arrested by the third wife, she was so proud. This time she finally vented her anger and let the woman from the third wife know that she was not someone to be bullied!
Old Man Lu was very happy to see his third son whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He started talking to Lu Lin:
"Third boy, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell dad earlier so that I could ask your mom to prepare a good meal to welcome you."
What did the old man say, welcoming the guests? What a bullshit!
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she immediately started yelling:
"What to eat? The third child has already eaten the braised pig's trotters sent by his father-in-law at home. He doesn't even want to eat our meals anymore!"
After hearing what Old Lady Lu said, Lu Lin's handsome face darkened, and then he heard Old Man Lu scolding Old Lady Lu:
"If you can't speak, shut up!
No one will think you are dumb if you don’t speak! "
Seeing that Old Man Lu didn't give her face, Old Lady Lu covered her chest and cried out. At this time, Lu Dashan and Lu Ershan's family came back home carrying hoes. Liu Hongyan saw Old Lady Lu like this and ran over to her, yelling deliberately.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you mad at someone?"
After saying this, Liu Hongyan deliberately glanced at Jiang Chunzao, which clearly meant that Jiang Chunzao was the one who made Old Lady Lu angry.
Old Lady Lu is also a spirited person. When she saw her second daughter-in-law Liu Hongyan coming, she immediately started acting like a drama queen, covering her chest and yelling:
"Hongyan, why did you come home just now? If you had come back a step later, you wouldn't have been able to see your mother!"
After hearing this, Liu Hongyan immediately acted like a good daughter-in-law, went up to Old Lady Lu and hugged her to ask about her well-being, and even forced two tears out of her eyes:
"Mom, what are you talking about? How come you almost can't see your daughter-in-law after just a short while?
"Mom, please don't get hurt. Our Lu family depends on you! You have to live well and watch our Mu Tou get married to continue the Lu family line!"
Just as Liu Hongyan finished speaking, Lu Mutou, who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly jumped out from somewhere and hugged Old Lady Lu and started howling.
"Grandma, you still have Mutou. When Mutou grows up and gets married, he will be filial to you and take care of you in your old age!"
Mrs. Lu was so moved that she burst into tears while holding her second grandson:
"Why!
My dear Mutou, you have loved me the most since I was little. You must live well and wait for me and Mutou to be blessed in the future."
Liu Hongyan, who was still in the play, curled her lips when she heard her mother-in-law's words, feeling very disdainful in her heart. This little old lady could never forget her precious grandson.
The old lady has the nerve to say that, everyone in Lujia Village knows that the old lady has loved her precious grandson Lu Xuedong the most since he was a child!
Liu Hongyan was disdainful in her heart, but she also knew that she couldn't ruin her mother-in-law's stage at the moment, and she still had to act with the old lady.
Thinking of this, Liu Hongyan turned her attention to the third family again. This time, as usual, she started by scolding Jiang Chunzao:
“The third family’s!
What do you think happened? Our mother was fine when we left the house this morning, but how come she is crying at the door of your third room after not seeing her all morning?
Did you do something again to upset our mother? "
What Liu Hongyan said was very good. If an outsider who didn't know the details heard it, he would definitely think that Jiang Chunzao, the famous and excellent daughter-in-law of the Lu family, had done something wrong and made Old Lady Lu cry in front of everyone.
At this time, the people in the village saw the Lu family standing at the front door of their house, all carrying hoes and walking slowly towards them as if they were rushing to buy something.
"Brother, why are you all standing at the door at noon? Why don't you go home and rest early?"
Old Deng, who grew up with Old Man Lu in the village, shouted at Old Man Lu.
Old Man Lu naturally didn't want to embarrass himself in front of outsiders, so he could only say with a wooden face:
"Nothing, nothing, just something happened at home. It's so sunny outside, everyone should go home and rest early."
"That's right, my father is right, Uncle Deng, you all should go away, there's nothing wrong with my family."
Lu Dashan standing nearby also stood up to support his father.
The father and son did not want to bring their family affairs to the village to be laughed at, but the villagers of Lujia Village were not fools. Seeing the attitude of the Lu family, everyone stood together and refused to leave.
Seeing this, Old Man Lu's face became even gloomier. Unable to drive the villagers away, he simply strode forward, pulled Old Lady Lu and whispered:
"Old woman, stop embarrassing yourself and come home with me."
It would have been fine if Old Lady Lu didn't listen to Old Man Lu, but once she heard what Old Man Lu said, she immediately became unhappy, and she struggled to get out of the old man's hands, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Old Man Lu in front of everyone and started to make a scene:
"What did you say, you old bastard!
You think it’s embarrassing to abandon me, an old woman! Why am I embarrassing? The one who is embarrassing is not me, an old woman, but your third son’s wife Jiang Chunzao!”
Grandma Jiang, who had been patient for a long time, could no longer hold back her temper when she heard this. She said in a hoarse voice with her tiger eyes:
"Old lady Lu! What do you mean by that?
What did my daughter do? Why do you say my daughter is a slut? You have to explain yourself to me today, or we in the Jiang family will not let you off like this!"
Mrs. Jiang beside them was also nodding her head in anger. The old couple's behavior was enough to make Mrs. Lu half dead. She followed Mr. Lu tremblingly and still said confidently:
"What do you want to do, do you want to beat up my old woman?
I... I'm not afraid of you. This is in our Lao Lu family, not your Lao Jiang family. What's wrong with what I said? Your daughter is a shameful shrew. Not only did she instigate the third son to separate from Lao Lu, but this Jiang Chunzao brought back so many delicious braised pig's trotters from her mother's house today, but she didn't show filial piety to her parents-in-law!
How can I not be angry?"
Old Lady Lu muttered these last words to herself, and happened to be heard by Old Dung who was watching the show nearby. He grinned and said:
"Mother Dashan, you are angry because you didn't get to eat the pig's trotters from Lao Jiang's family."
When Old Dengtou said this, everyone in the village burst into laughter.
Old man Lu's face became even darker, and even Lu Lin's face darkened as well. Jiang Chunzao saw this scene clearly from the side. She deliberately didn't act up at first, just to let Lu Lin see for himself how the shameless old lady Lu acted when he was not at home.
Now the time has come, Jiang Chunzao put on a surprised and aggrieved expression:
"Mom! So you were trying to eat my mother's delicious pig's trotters? Why didn't you tell me earlier?
You said, I just came back from my mother's house early in the morning with my two children. As soon as I entered the village, I saw the children's father standing at the door. He hadn't even had breakfast yet.
My mom and dad happened to come with me, and when they saw that the child’s father hadn’t even eaten, they just focused on preparing a hot meal for your son. Didn’t they forget to send you the pig’s trotters?
At this moment, your son has eaten and drunk enough, mother, please wait for your daughter-in-law to go home and bring you some pig's trotters!"
Jiang Chunzao ran into the house like a gust of wind after he finished speaking. After a while, he hurriedly ran out carrying two pig trotters tied with straw ropes and handed them to Mrs. Lu respectfully:
"Mother, your two pig's trotters."
Jiang Chunzao emphasized the words "your two pig's trotters" on purpose, which made the villagers laugh.
The villagers were happy and they all looked at Jiang Chunzao with new eyes:
"Hey, can you guys tell me whether the third daughter-in-law of this old lady Lu is different from before?"
"Well, it seems that you are much more sensible than before."
"It's true that Jiang Chunzao is much more capable than before. He used to only know how to curse and swear, but now he can make Old Lady Lu lose all her face with just a few words."
"To be honest, what Old Lady Lu did was not fair. When her son came home from the army, she didn't even bother to cook him a hot meal, but instead just thought about the pig's trotters from Old Jiang's family."
"Hey, let me tell you, a foster mother can never be as good as a biological mother."
Old Mrs. Lu listened to these words, her old face turned red and white. She gritted her teeth and looked at Jiang Chunzao, wanting to push her away, but she was reluctant to part with the fragrant pig's trotter. She could only take the pig's trotter with hatred and went home with her butt twisted.
Lu Ershan, Liu Hongyan and their family of three coveted the pig's trotters and were afraid that Old Lady Lu would eat it all, so they immediately followed her. Old Man Lu, Lu Dashan and Mrs. Lu looked embarrassed and stood there for a while before following her home.
Jiang Chunzao smiled as she watched Old Lady Lu flee back home in a panic. Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang looked at her with admiration. Even the two little kids looked at her with adoration. She was so proud that she was about to take one of the kids home with her hand, but when she turned her head, she met a pair of black eyes with a slight smile. It was her cheap husband Lu Lin who was smiling at her.
Smile, smile, what are you laughing at! What's wrong with your white teeth!
Jiang Chunzao rolled her eyes at her cheap husband in a noble and cold manner, then took the two kids home.
Lu Lin:........
The villagers dispersed when they saw that there was no excitement, and Grandpa Jiang and his wife also came home.
Although Jiang Chunzao rolled her eyes at Lu Lin in front of outsiders, when she returned home, she looked at the clock in the living room and immediately smiled.
Oh, it’s time for the three reed chickens at home to lay eggs!
The commune was very strict in those days. Every household was only allowed to raise three chickens. No more was allowed. If more than that were raised, the team leader would send people to take the extra chickens to the commune for disposal. The team leader said this was called cutting off the capitalist tail!
Although Jiang Chunzao is a tough guy, he only raises three chickens like the other villagers. Now the nutrition for his two children depends on the three Luhua chickens.
Jiang Chunzao called out to the two kids who were following behind him:
"Shitou, Jasmine, let's go to the yard and pick up eggs together! Our chick Huahua is about to lay eggs."
Huahua is the name given by the two cubs to the three old hens of Reed Flower in the family. Usually, when the old hens lay eggs, the two cubs would call them Huahua, Huahua. After a long time, Jiang Chunzao also started calling them together.
The two kids heard what their mother said, and the three of them left the house together. At this moment, the old hen in the chicken coop in the yard kept clucking. Grandma Jiang heard it from the side, reached into the chicken coop, and immediately laughed, "Wow, the hen laid four eggs today. Our kids are so lucky."
The old hen at home laid four eggs. Jiang Chunzao and the two children were very happy to hear this. Especially Jiang Chunzao, she touched the four warm eggs from Grandma Jiang's hands and smiled:
"Mom, the eggs laid today are really good. I'm going to go wash the pot now. Where is your father, Shitou? What is he doing? Hurry up and find him to help light the fire at home and be a husband."
After hearing this, Little Stone went off to look for someone, leaving Little Jasmine blinking her big eyes and asking:
"Mom, what is a boyfriend?"
Jiang Chunzao touched the lady's cute little face, gave her a kiss and said with a smile:
"A buddy is someone who makes fire and cooks. Your father is the buddy in our Lu family who specializes in making fire and cooking."
Lu Lin just walked in with his long legs:
