Chen Xiaoying was annoyed when she heard such irresponsible words. She said calmly, "She is only in the third grade. If she is a normal child, she should not make mistakes in addition and subtraction of double-digit numbers. And her homework book is so dirty. It's because she didn't study hard."
Li Yumeng wiped her tears, glared at her grandmother Chen Xiaoying, and then pestered her mother Yang Xiaohui: "Mom, I want to go home, I want to go home."
Once she gets home, her grandmother can no longer control her. She can eat when she wants to and sleep when she wants to. No one can do anything to her.
Chen Xiaoying felt uncomfortable when she saw her granddaughter, who was so young but had a rebellious nature. She wondered if she would ask for a computer when she was in fifth grade like she did in her previous life.
She said she needed it for studying. The fourth child, Li Hong, had just spent so much money to buy her a computer and set up an internet cable for her, but as a result, she stayed at home all day watching the Fairies until late at night. She couldn't get up for school in the morning, so she simply didn't go.
The daughter-in-law, Liu Lanxiang, was also a villager, but she also noticed something was wrong, so she said, "Middle school and high school students, who have important studies, don't need computers to study. Why do you, a primary school student, need computers to study? What are you going to learn on a computer?"
Yang Xiaohui was also unconvinced: "The teacher said we need it, and if we don't buy it, she'll slap the kid in the face. How can we not buy it?"
Liu Lanxiang didn't believe it, so she met her teacher at the market one day and asked him about it.
The teacher's face was not right: "I can't teach your Li Yumeng. She doesn't study hard at school and I can't control her at all. She has a bad temper and doesn't listen to me at all. I have never taught such a bad student. She will grow up to be a gangster."
At this time, most teachers would physically punish students, such as making them stand in the corner, slapping their palms, or hitting them on the head with books. The teacher was so angry that it was obvious that corporal punishment could not calm Li Yumeng.
Why? Chen Xiaoying looked at Li Yumeng, who was now out of control, and suddenly felt a headache.
"Xiao Meng, if you don't study hard, how will you support yourself in the future?"
Li Yumeng was a child and didn't think that far: "My parents raised me, you don't have to worry about it."
"I bought your father's house. Do you think I can control you?" Chen Xiaoying became angry.
Li Yumeng turned her face away and desperately pulled her mother Yang Xiaohui's arm: "Mom, let's go home."
Yang Xiaohui came here for something, and pulled her aside: "What are you doing? Mom wants to talk to your dad about something."
Seeing Yang Xiaohui's evasive look, Chen Xiaoying knew what was going on: "He's gone to work. See if I know what's going on."
Yang Xiaohui then sat down and said, "Mom, the fourth brother told me about buying a house. My mother's family really has no money. When my mother heard about it, she became sick and cried non-stop. She said that if there is really no money, she would give her life as compensation to the Li family."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red: "Mom, let's forget about it. I'll be working like a slave for the Li family for the rest of my life. Isn't that worth five thousand yuan?"
She felt that she was wronged.
Chen Xiaoying looked at her straightly: "Are you selling yourself out?"
Yang Xiaohui was about to wipe her tears and pretend to be pitiful, but when she heard this, her expression changed: "Mom, what are you talking about?"
"It is only natural to pay back debts. Why do your mother's family seem so confident about owing money? Why?" Chen Xiaoying couldn't understand.
Yang Xiaohui felt embarrassed: "It's because my family has no money."
"Xiaohui, forget it. Since your family has no intention of paying back the money, you and the fourth brother don't need to worry about the house. You can go back. After ten or twenty years, when you see the gap between you and the other brothers, I hope you won't regret it." Chen Xiaoying said.
In fact, she was not doing it for the five thousand yuan. She wanted the fourth child to earn money through his hard work in the future, so that she could continue to be the moving mouse and move the money to her mother's house willingly.
If her parents are grateful and she helps them, and if they are willing to stand up for her and help the fourth child if there is any problem, she can turn a blind eye and everyone helps each other.
Family love cannot be measured by money.
But the fourth son's wife, Yang Xiaohui, was still stubborn and playing tricks on her, so she couldn't feel at ease with the fourth son.
Yang Xiaohui felt uncomfortable with what her mother-in-law said: "Mom, you said at the beginning that we should treat everyone equally."
"I did say that, but the premise is that you daughters-in-law can be of one mind with my son. Look at yourself. Is your eldest sister-in-law the one who moves things to her parents' home? Your second sister-in-law's mother even grows vegetables and raises chickens to help your second brother. Look at your third sister-in-law. Your third brother is a worthless person who doesn't stay home. She has been working with me honestly for the past five or six years. What about you? What have you done?"
"My family harvested rapeseed oil and we got a bucket of rapeseed oil. You always took half of it back to your mother's house. Are you a thief sent by the Yang family to the Li family?"
Chen Xiaoying's words were already very unpleasant to the ear.
Yang Xiaohui's face changed, and she stood up while grabbing Li Yumeng in anger: "My mother raised me up, and I married into your family when I was able to work. So what if my mother ate a little rapeseed oil from your Li family?"
Chen Xiaoying looked down on her family, which made Yang Xiaohui feel ashamed.
"Go and ask around, whose daughter-in-law is like you? You are the odd one out there, don't you know it?" Chen Xiaoying said expressionlessly, "Only the fourth brother can tolerate you. Try other families, will they allow you to give your family's money to your parents? Your eldest brother has his own life to live, he has a wife, he has arms and legs, and your mother is in good health, does she need your help?"
Yang Xiaohui was furious: "I was born by my mother..."
"Yang Xiaohui, I told you, I didn't stop you from helping your mother's family. I just didn't want you to help without any bottom line. Look at yourself. You earn money yourself to help, that's because you have the ability. But you use the money that Lao Si earned with his blood and sweat to help, does Lao Si agree?"
"If you tire him to death, leaving Li Yumeng without a father, and you become a widow, will you be happy?" Chen Xiaoying really couldn't understand Yang Xiaohui's mind. How did her mother brainwash her? Why did she just listen to her mother?
"You've been married for nine years. Look at your family's savings account. How much money is there? Don't you want to live in a big, bright house like your eldest brother, and let Xiao Meng go to a good school in the county and receive a good education? Have you ever thought about it? If she has no future and can't make money, and you and the fourth child are old and sick, she can't even take care of herself. Can she still provide for you two in your old age?"
Chen Xiaoying said so much this time, but the fourth daughter-in-law Yang Xiaohui still gritted her teeth, impatient, as if you were meddling too much. She simply sighed and said, "It's up to you. Since you don't want the house anymore, forget it."
Yang Xiaohui shuddered: "When did I say I didn't want it?"
"Your family can't afford the mortgage, so why buy a house? You have to pay back the money every month," Chen Xiaoying told her.
"Mom, you have money, can't you just pay us back?" Yang Xiaohui said as a matter of course.
Chen Xiaoying laughed and said, "And then they asked you to use the money your family saved to support your parents?"
How could she be so shameless?
