"that is!"
The family members were all plotting against Chunni and were talking nonsense.
Chunni didn't move. What these people said was bullshit. She just had to ignore them. She wanted to see her parents' attitude.
Chunni's mother put down the bowl and said, "Chunni and her three children have food rations and head money. I told Chunni to keep it. Don't even think about the rest. That's the money the Li family took. They can't do it."
Chunni's heart sank. That was the land that only her and her mother had because they had registered their household registration. Why should they leave it behind?
"Mom, how about this? Let's not tell Chunni about our relocation for now. When the brigade notifies us, we'll say that Chunni has entrusted our family with the task. Then, we'll be the first to agree with the relocation plan. I heard that those who agree early can be rewarded with tens of thousands of yuan. By then, Chunni will know about it, and the money will be in our pockets. What can she do to us?" The sister-in-law suggested.
None of the brothers said a word, but they were all excited.
"Are we going to take the money for the leased land and mountain? Chunni can't do it. It will even blow the roof off the house." Chunni's mother hesitated.
"Then let her make a fuss and vent her anger. She has no money anyway, what else can she do? With so much money, our family can move to the city, the children can go to school in the city, and they can take root here in the future." The second sister-in-law thought this was a great idea.
These words made the whole family's eyes light up.
"What if the eldest sister sue us?" The fourth brother was a little worried. Would the Li family admit to such a huge loss?
The eldest sister-in-law rolled her eyes and said, "Just say that my parents took it and let them sue my parents. My parents are so old, I don't believe she really dares to sue them. If she sues, her spine will be broken."
This is a great idea. If they dare to sue her parents, Chunni will have no way to live as a human being. By then, all her money will be gone. Can Chunni send her parents to be shot?
Several sons and daughters-in-law looked at Chunni's parents expectantly.
Chunni's mother looked at Chunni's father, who was smoking without saying a word.
Chunni's mother hadn't thought it through. If they did this, the girl would definitely not hang out with them in the future.
If it was a small amount of money, she would definitely not be interested, because for such a small amount of money, they still had some dignity and it was not worth it to fall out with the girl.
But there are too many... No matter how good their daughters are, they are still outsiders, and they will have to rely on their sons in the end.
"Mom, we are the roots of the family." Seeing his parents hesitate, the eldest brother said something.
"So what should we do?" Chunni's mother looked at Chunni's father uncertainly. She didn't dare to make a decision on such a big matter.
Chunni's father was silent for a long time. "It's all because of my incompetence as a father. We can't take all the money. Our family will take half, and the remaining half will be given to the Li family, so that Chunni won't be embarrassed in her husband's family."
The sons and daughters-in-law exchanged glances. The money was already in their pockets, and they still wanted to give it away. Dad was just saying some polite words.
Chunni, standing at the door, couldn't help but shed tears. "If she takes half, can she live like a decent person in her husband's family?" It's all in their pockets, so why should they give out half? They were probably just trying to comfort themselves.
When they were in trouble in the past, her parents helped her a lot, and she and the second son were very grateful. In recent years, conditions have improved, and she buys things and gives money to her parents every year. The second son even said that he could support her parents in their old age.
When she came, her mother scolded her sons and daughters-in-law and was so angry that she almost died. She didn't expect that the family was so united in private. She was the only outsider, and the whole family was plotting against her.
