Chapter 30
"mother."
Lu Huaimei shrank her neck weakly. In the entire Lu family, no one was not afraid of Wang Dani.
“Come here!”
Wang Dani's tone was unfriendly. Lu Huaimei knew that if she didn't go over, her mother would really be angry, so she could only move over slowly.
"Mom, listen to my explanation."
"Don't explain to me!"
Wang Dani was very angry, "The person you hurt was not me, but your third brother and his wife!"
"I……"
Lu Huaimei didn't dare to look Tang Wan in the eye, her eyes were full of guilt.
"Explain."
Wang Dani dragged out the last syllable of her voice, which was obviously a bit yin and yang. Tang Wan didn't have to do anything, her mother-in-law could solve the problem.
"I didn't know Sister Hongying was so brave."
Lu Huaimei rubbed the corner of her clothes, "She said she came to see the third brother and his wife's wedding, and I thought she had liked the third brother for so many years.
I just fulfilled her little wish, but I never knew it would turn out like this."
She regretted her decision as soon as she arrived at the captain's house and wanted to turn around and go back, but was spotted by Lu Hongying.
When she heard that her third brother and his wife were hosting a banquet, Lu Hongying begged her to bring her over.
Lu Huaimei was easily soft-hearted, and she lost her rationality after being told a few words.
"She made your third brother and his wife so embarrassed by what she did, and you still feel wronged?"
Wang Dani didn't expect that she had raised such a selfish girl. She was so angry that she took out the broom next to her and hit Lu Huaimei.
"Mom, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"
Lu Huaimei hid while glancing at Tang Wan, hoping that Tang Wan could say a few good words for her.
But Tang Wan didn't do that. She stood there with her hands folded, watching Wang Dani fight to her heart's content.
If someone dared to cause trouble at her wedding banquet, Tang Wan would have done it herself if she hadn't taken into consideration that she was Lu Huaijing's biological sister.
But getting spanked by her own mother wasn't bad either.
"You little bitch, you don't study hard. You've ruined your brain by studying so much!"
Wang Dani beat Lu Huaimei so hard that she ran all over the yard. Everyone saw it but no one stepped forward to stop her.
This is also Wang Dani's way of telling everyone that she recognizes Tang Wan as her daughter-in-law.
Anyone who dares to fart will suffer the same fate as Lu Huaimei.
Until Wang Dani was tired of beating me, she put her hands on her hips and said, "Apologize to your third sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry."
Lu Huaimei was beaten by Wang Dani until she cried. It was the first time in her life that her mother beat her so hard.
Not only does it hurt, but more importantly, it makes me feel ashamed.
"Meizi, you are not a child anymore."
Tang Wan acted like an elder and said, "I see many girls your age in the team are married and have become mothers.
Your mother and your brother and sister-in-law let you go to school because they wanted you to learn more, not to listen to outsiders' instigation and cause trouble for the family."
"Your third sister-in-law is right. Stay away from Lu Hongying in the future!"
When Wang Dani thought of Lu Hongying's shameless behavior today, she suddenly felt that she was blind.
"Mom, didn't you say before that Sister Hongying was the captain's daughter and that we should get close to her?"
The more Lu Huaimei thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and tears started to fall from her eyes. Wang Dani was so disappointed that they could not be together.
"I used to think you two were just good sisters, but I had no idea she had other intentions!"
There was a slight gleam in her eyes. She had previously thought that the Tang family looked down on her son, so they had never mentioned marriage.
If the girl from the Tang family gets married in another two years, she will have no choice but to look for a third son in the brigade.
Lu Hongying was indeed one of the people she liked, but not the only one.
"Okay, mother."
Tang Wan waited until Wang Dani had finished scolding her, then she smiled and said, "My younger sister is young and easily instigated.
Since she didn't mean it, forget it. She's learned a lesson and won't listen to outsiders anymore."
Anyway, she had been beaten and scolded, and Tang Wan didn't mind leaving a good impression in Wang Dani's heart.
As expected, Wang Dani's expression was moved. "The third daughter-in-law is still sensible and generous. Some people should learn from her."
She stretched her neck and said this deliberately to the petty-minded Li Cuihua in the inner room, which made Li Cuihua so angry that she almost dropped the bowl in her hand.
"Sister-in-law, please be careful. If this bowl is broken, we will have to pay for it."
Wang Shuhua reminded her, and Li Cuihua wiped the bowl impatiently, "She is the only one who can be both a good person and a bad person!
Mother still thinks she is sensible and well-behaved. Don’t you think it’s infuriating?”
"He is really capable."
Wang Shuhua admired Tang Wan a little bit. She drove away all the people in the old house with just a few words.
She doesn't have that ability, and her sister-in-law can only swear and curse.
Outside, Lu Huaimei was reprimanded and felt extremely regretful. "Mom, I really know I was wrong."
"Go back and clean up the dishes."
Wang Dani glared at Lu Huaimei again, and Lu Huaimei ran away as fast as a mouse seeing a cat.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you."
"This kid needs a lesson!"
Wang Dani smiled lovingly at Tang Wan, "You must be tired after a busy day.
Go back to your room and rest first, and leave the rest to us."
The third brother is a soldier and is very strong. He might have a hard time at night. Wang Dani is thinking about Tang Wan.
"good."
Tang Wan naturally would not miss this rare opportunity to rest.
But after entering the house, Wang Dani took out a cloth bag and gave her all the money she had received today.
"From the Third Brother's family, here is the gift money and gift list for today. Please count them yourself."
"Mom, can you give this to us too?"
Tang Wan was a little surprised. She thought this was fair. After all, their wedding banquet had nothing but Lu Huaijing's robe flesh.
The rest was paid for by Wang Dani.
"Of course."
Wang Dani is a very open-minded head of the family. "Not only you, but also your elder brother and second brother got married.
I also confiscated the money they gave me, and they will have to pay it back later.”
"Thank you, mother."
Tang Wan didn't understand all this when she just got married, but she just kept the money as her mother told her to, and there was no reason for her to push it away.
"Tomorrow you and the third brother will leave for the army, and you will have to take care of your own family in the future.
Tell the third child not to send money home anymore."
Wang Dani looked a little sad. Every time the third child came back, he came and went in a hurry. As a mother, how could she not miss him?
"Mom, this is not good, right?"
Tang Wan felt a little embarrassed. It was impossible for Lu Huaijing to abandon his mother after getting married.
Lu Huaijing, who happened to be returning to the house, also heard these words, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad.
"Mom, that's my way of honoring you."
"I can still do it now, so there's nothing wrong with it."
Wang Dani sighed, "When a tree grows big, it branches out. Once your little brother gets married, I will no longer be in charge of this family. You two can live your own lives.
You are different from the eldest and second oldest children. You don’t live or eat at home, so sending money back doesn’t make sense.
The eldest brother followed me, and the money he paid was also his own expenses. Although the second brother had a formal job in the city.
They also paid me ten yuan every month, and it was not in vain. I also gave them a lot of food during the summer and autumn harvests.
I can still move now, so it’s not time for me to retire yet. When I get older, you brothers can discuss how much to give me per month.”
