Grandma Li felt sorry for Lu Pandi, who had never had a decent meal since birth, so she specially cooked egg custard, saving spoonfuls to feed Lu Pandi.
When she saw Lu Pandi's happy smile as she ate something delicious, a corner of her heart melted without her realizing it.
"My dear grandson, Grandma's steamed egg custard is so delicious!" Grandma Li finally enjoyed the happiness of having her grandson by her side, but she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking, Qi Ran rushed into the house.
Qi Ran roared at Old Lady Li like a madwoman: "Mom, how could you give Pan Di this?"
At the same time, the announcements in Qi Ran's mind about deducting luck points had not stopped.
She snatched the bowl and spoon from Old Lady Li's hands and slammed them down. The crisp sound echoed in the air, finally making Qi Ran realize what she was doing.
"You, you!" Old Mrs. Li pointed at Qi Ran, unable to utter a word. How could she have smashed her own bowl and chopsticks? The remaining egg custard in the bowl was being wasted!
Besides, does Qi Ran even consider her the head of the family anymore?
Perhaps the sound of the bowl and spoon breaking was too loud, because the entire Lu family had already surrounded Li.
The door of the old lady's room
Old Lu walked in with a serious expression, his hands behind his back: "What's wrong?"
As if she had suddenly grasped the main point of support, Old Lady Li pointed at Qi Ran and said in a loud voice:
"Qi Ran bullied me! She doesn't respect me as her mother-in-law at all. She not only smashed my bowl when she came in, but she also yelled at me!"
"Is that so?" Old Lu asked Qi Ran, but in reality, he didn't listen to Qi Ran's answer at all. Instead, he slowly rolled up his sleeves.
Qi Ran finally realized that she had gone too far and began to explain to the two elders:
"Dad, Mom, I was just kidding. Don't you know how I feel about you both?"
I was just doing it temporarily..."
Before she could finish speaking, a sharp pain shot through her right cheek, followed by a deafening ringing in her ears. Qi Ran had been shoved around in the face by Old Man Lu again.
"Dad, how could you do this?" She was so aggrieved that she was about to cry. She felt that no one in the entire Lu family was on her side.
There might have been some at first, but gradually everyone seemed to have become her adversaries, like Old Lady Li and Old Man Lu in front of her.
"Dad, Mom, do you remember? When I first married into the Lu family, you would ask me every day with smiles if I was eating well and if I was settling in properly?" Qi Ran said, her voice choked with emotion.
"For a time, I felt that you treated me like your own parents. All of this changed after Chen Qin married into the Lu family."
"You started to become cold and stingy towards me, and now you've even hit me more than once!"
Qi Ran spoke with great emotion, pouring out all the grievances she had suffered over the years since marrying into the Lu family.
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Li and Old Mr. Lu tacitly turned their faces away, unable to look directly at each other anymore.
dye.
When Qi Qi first married into the family, they treated Qi Ran well, but only because Qi Ran was their first daughter-in-law. They were afraid that if they didn't treat her well, she might run away.
Later, as more and more of their children got married, it became impossible for them to take care of every daughter-in-law. So they simply chose to give up.
What surprised Grandma Li even more was that after Qi Ran finished speaking, Chen Qin also rushed into the room.
"Mom, is what my sister-in-law said true?" Chen Qin asked preemptively, then smoothly slid down to kneel before Li...
She grabbed her mother's feet and said, "Mom, you've never treated us like this before. I don't care, you have to treat all of us daughters-in-law like this from now on!"
She and her husband saw that Old Lady Li was currently in a state of softening and being moved, and they thought they might be able to get some benefits from her now.
When Grandma Li heard Chen Qin say this, she looked up and saw her three other daughters-in-law standing at the door, looking at the two old people with longing eyes.
If they treated the other four daughters-in-law the same way they treated Qi Ran, Old Lady Li and Old Man Lu might go crazy.
Old Mrs. Li and Old Mr. Lu looked at each other and said in unison, "In that case, let's divide the family property."
It's time to let the children live their own lives.
"Separate the family?" Everyone in the Lu family said these two words in unison.
"Mom, are we really going to separate the family?" Chen Qin asked reluctantly, not because of her relationship with the others.
It was all so wonderful, but she couldn't bear to let the eldest son's wife and the fifth son's wife leave.
They're making so much money now; as long as the Lu family continues to exist, they can live a life of luxury with both branches of the family.
"Yes." Old Mrs. Li had made up her mind. She felt that if she continued to manage this large family, she might be driven crazy someday.
"Your mother and I have decided to separate the family property." Old Man Lu said to the whole family first, then turned to Old Lady Li and said, "Take out our family's money and distribute it to the children."
"Okay." This time, Old Lady Li didn't hesitate any longer. She took out her family's savings: "A total of 300."
Less than 100 yuan.
"What? Three hundred yuan?" the first wife and the second wife said in unison.
“We each take 200 yuan home every month, and with the five families, it shouldn’t be less than 300 yuan!” Qi Ran launched into a tirade against Old Lady Li.
Old Mrs. Li glanced guiltily at the Fifth Branch of the family, and Qi Ran immediately seized on that look and launched an attack on the Fifth Branch.
"Oh, so it turns out you don't bring any money home! You're out there eating and drinking well every day, and you don't care about anything that happens at home!" Qi Ran passionately retorted.
