Ye Li was quite surprised. She didn't expect that her mother-in-law could come up with this idea.
"Mom, Wang Sha doesn't work in the factory anymore, but Jiang Rui still does. You can't let him lose his job, right? He's your son, right?"
"What's wrong with my son?" Zhao Xingmei frowned. "My son doesn't work hard and is taking up the factory's resources. This is inappropriate! There are so many outstanding young people in the factory who can't find a suitable house to live in after getting married! Since they don't value this job, let them get out and make way."
Ye Li took a deep breath: "Mom, is this really okay?"
"Why not? This couple is doing nothing and is still delaying the third son's marriage. I am upset to see them like this. I might as well just chase them away."
Ye Li didn't say anything. She couldn't express her opinion on this matter.
Since her mother-in-law has made this decision, she won't say anything.
At night, Ye Li snuggled in Jiang Xun's arms and whispered softly, "Today, Mom said she wanted to lose Jiang Rui's job and kick him and his wife out of the house. I was shocked by this idea! Do you think Mom can really do such a thing?"
Jiang Xun stroked her face and said, "Yes. Mom is not an ordinary woman. Once she makes up her mind, no one can stop her."
...
...
"Isn't she afraid that Jiang Rui will lose his job? How will the two of them make a living in the future?" Ye Li said.
In fact, she knew very well in her mind that the 1980s were about to begin and self-employed people would usher in a golden age.
Even if Jiang Rui loses his job now, he won't starve.
"You don't have to worry about him. There are many jobs available. You don't have to work in a factory to make a living." Jiang Xun hugged Ye Li tightly. "In fact, I also want them to leave. Wang Sha is always an unstable factor here."
"You think so, too?"
"Yeah. She's too jealous and wants a second child. When Huang Xiuxiu got pregnant, she couldn't stand it and took Miaomiao back to her parents' home. Now that you're pregnant, won't she be jealous to death?" Jiang Xun didn't say these words on weekdays, but he knew them clearly in his heart, "If mom really wants to do this, don't stop her."
"Got it." Ye Li buried her head in his chest, "Thank you Jiang Xun, you have always stood on the same side as me and never made things difficult for me."
"Silly girl." Jiang Xun lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "You appear in my life like a ray of light, illuminating me and changing my originally dark future. It is a blessing for me to meet you. You are a gift from God to me, and you are a woman who deserves my lifelong care!"
"Jiang Xun."
"Um?"
Ye Li closed his eyes, curved his lips and said, "Has anyone ever told you that you are good at saying sweet words?"
Jiang Xun laughed twice: "If you don't tell me, where else can I hear it? Do you like to hear it?"
Ye Li nodded: "Yeah, I like it."
…
The next day was Monday, another day to go to work.
Early in the morning, the weather was gloomy, as if a heavy rain was brewing.
It was not time to get up yet, but Ye Li felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach and wanted to go to the toilet, so he got up early and went out.
Just as I reached the door of Jiang Rui and Wang Sha's house, the door slammed open and a basin of boiling water poured out.
"Ouch!" Ye Li was startled and quickly took two steps back. He tripped and almost fell.
"Sister-in-law!" Jiang Sui just came back from the door and saw this scene. He hurried forward to help her, "Sister-in-law, please be careful, you are still pregnant!"
"Thank you, Sui Sui. If it weren't for you, I would have fallen down." Ye Li shook off the water stains on his body, his eyes red with anger. "It's not my carelessness, the water was spilled from your second sister-in-law's room! And it was boiling water!"
"What? My second sister-in-law is too blatant, isn't she? What does she want to do?" Jiang Sui looked at Ye Li's red eyes and stomped his feet hard, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute, I'll go and settle the score with her!"
Jiang Sui angrily knocked on Wang Sha's door: "Open the door, come out!"
She knocked a few times, but no one paid any attention to her.
Jiang Sui then started to bang on the door: "Come out here! Sister-in-law, come out and tell me clearly, what do you want to do?"
Wang Sha didn't come out, so Jiang Ruilai opened the door. Seeing Jiang Sui so excited, he said, "What are you shouting for? Do you want to tear down my door so early in the morning? Why are you shouting your second sister-in-law?"
"She deliberately poured boiling water on my sister-in-law! My sister-in-law is pregnant now, why don't you ask her what she wants to do?"
Jiang Rui turned around and asked Wang Sha: "Is what Jiang Sui said true?"
Wang Sha was combing her hair in front of the mirror. When she heard Jiang Rui's words, she said slowly, "I did pour a basin of water, but I didn't mean to do that! I was pouring water when my sister-in-law rushed over. You can't blame me for that, right?"
"You! You are lying with your eyes open, Wang Sha, are you crazy? This family can't accommodate you anymore, right? Do you have to offend everyone in the family and make yourself deserted by everyone?"
Wang Sha came out and leaned on Jiang Rui: "Look at what you said, how is this possible? I said I didn't mean it, but you still hold on to me! Let me put it this way, sister-in-law, I was wrong, I apologize to you, and I will be more careful next time. Is that okay?"
Jiang Sui was irritated by her weird attitude. She stopped being angry with Wang Sha and said to Jiang Rui, "Second brother, look at what you have become now. If you keep pampering her like this, you will break up this family sooner or later!"
"Jiang Sui, let me put it bluntly, a married girl is like spilled water, so you should stay out of the affairs of her brothers from her natal family." Jiang Rui said a few words to Jiang Sui and closed the door.
"Oh, I'm so angry, so angry!" Jiang Sui couldn't stand it anymore, stamped his feet and shouted in the yard, "Brother, come out quickly! My sister-in-law is being bullied!"
This loud voice completely broke the shaky balance maintained by the Jiang family.
Jiang Xun rushed over without even putting on his clothes. Looking at the water on the ground and his wife's red eyes, his face was like the dark clouds before a storm: "Jiang Sui, what's going on?"
Ye Li hurriedly stopped him: "It's okay, Jiang Xun, don't be impulsive."
Jiang Xun held Ye Li's hand and said, "Li Li, I'm here, don't be afraid."
Jiang Sui told Jiang Xun how Wang Sha bullied Ye Li, and Jiang Xun's fists clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.
He stepped forward and kicked Jiang Rui's door open, then walked in with a frighteningly cold face: "Wang Sha, I need your explanation."
Wang Sha was a little scared when she saw Jiang Xun. She hid behind Jiang Rui and whispered, "I didn't mean it. I apologized to my sister-in-law."
"Didn't you splash the water on me on purpose?"
"I really didn't mean it, big brother! I really didn't mean it! Isn't this just a coincidence? Big brother, you can't beat me up for this, right?"
"What about you? Jiang Rui, do you think she did it on purpose?" Jiang Xun turned around and asked Jiang Rui.
Jiang Rui hesitated for a moment and chose to protect Wang Sha: "No, brother, we are all family, how could she harm sister-in-law? It was definitely not intentional!"
Jiang Xun stared at Jiang Rui, which made him feel uneasy.
Time seemed to have stood still.
Jiang Rui and Wang Sha were extremely nervous, fearing that Jiang Xun would beat them up. As time passed, Jiang Xun did not say anything, but turned and walked out.
"Brother, do you believe what they say?" Jiang Sui asked anxiously.
Jiang Xun did not answer. He supported Ye Li and whispered, "I will make them pay the price! Soon!"
After breakfast, Jiang Xun sent Ye Li to work and took two days off for himself. He returned home and found his mother, Zhao Xingmei.
"Mom, there is something I must do, but because Jiang Rui is my brother and Wang Sha is my sister-in-law, I have to be clear with you first! Normally, I tolerated whatever they did, but now it's different. Li Li is pregnant, and keeping Wang Sha around is always a disaster. Only when she leaves and completely leaves our sight, can Li Li give birth to the child safely! So, I have to do this, and I hope you won't blame your son!"
As soon as Zhao Xingmei heard it, she knew that Jiang Xun was going to make a move. When she heard that the couple was actually planning to take advantage of Ye Li and her child, she could no longer bear it.
If she had to grit her teeth and make up her mind yesterday when making that decision, she didn't have to do that today.
"Boss, I don't blame you! Because I also have something to do! Since you want to do it too, let's do it together!" Zhao Xingmei stood up after saying this, "I'll go to the factory now."
