Qin Nian gripped the handlebars tightly as she pushed her bicycle, while Da Bao and Er Bao were taken away to play by Liu Da Niang's two grandsons.
"Is this new guy so difficult to deal with?"
Yang Yufen was used to it, but this wasn't the countryside; it was the research institute's compound where everyone was well-mannered. Yang Yufen was still a little unaccustomed to this sudden visit.
"That's right. My daughter-in-law only gave birth a few days ago, and it's a girl. She's always making a fuss. She looks down on her own granddaughter and even bosses her around. I don't know where she got this old-fashioned mentality from. The day before yesterday, I saw that old woman trying to drown her granddaughter."
"Is that so?!"
Yang Yufen was shocked.
"Yes, her daughter-in-law found out and they made a scene."
next door
“I went through so much trouble to move here, just so you could borrow my good fortune. Other people can have twins, but you only had a girl. You're useless.”
When Aunt Liu met Yang Yufen's gaze, she realized that this matter of borrowing good fortune was still quite taboo.
A man paused slightly as he passed by Yang Yufen and her group before entering the neighboring courtyard.
"That's Xiao Wang."
Qin Nian glanced at it; she recognized it, but wasn't familiar with it.
"Alright, stop arguing, aren't you ashamed?"
A man's voice came from next door.
"It's all because of your wife. I told you before that her ass wouldn't be able to have a son, but you insisted on marrying her. Now our Wang family line is cut off, all thanks to this jinx. She can't even cook a proper meal."
"Can you please stop causing trouble? My mother is getting old, and I still have to work."
An impatient voice rang out.
"I'm not causing trouble, Wang Aimin. I'm still in my postpartum period, and Niu Niu needs someone to take care of her..."
The woman's helpless and weary voice wanted to explain, wanted the man to see things clearly.
"You think you're so precious, taking a month off? In our generation, babies were born in the fields and we still had to work and cook for the men!"
"If you're so capable, give my Wang family twin grandsons like Qin Nian, and I'll treat you like that old woman Yang does. You're a woman who doesn't act like one at all. If you weren't good at having children, do you think that old woman Yang would treat you like royalty!"
Yang Yufen was furious! She climbed up the ladder leaning against the wall at Aunt Liu's house and pointed at Granny Wang below, cursing her.
"You old scoundrel, just say what you want! Great men have said that women hold up half the sky. Who gave you the guts to drag my Niannian into this? You treat your daughter-in-law like a slave, like a rich landlord. Don't think everyone is like you. If I hear you dragging my Niannian into this again, I'll tear you apart!"
"Ma'am, my mother only said a few words to my wife. Isn't it wrong for you to climb over the wall and curse at her like this?"
Wang Aimin was startled when Yang Yufen suddenly appeared on the wall.
"Hmph, you look down on women just because you came from under a woman's crotch. Were you blind when your parents were torturing your wife? You, you're not a woman, you despise yourself. Women can do so much more than just give birth!"
Yang Yufen glanced at Wang Aimin with disdain; this guy was even more hopeless than her own hopeless son.
"When we were carrying hoes on our shoulders and guns on our backs, did you expect all of us old women to be holed up in the stove? You look down on girls, but girls can still go to university, and if they can drive a tractor, they can fly a plane! Bah!"
Yang Yufen spat in anger, and Old Lady Wang pointed at Yang Yufen with trembling hands, making Wang Aimin take two steps back.
