Wang Tiegang had been thinking about the division of the family property for some time but hadn't made up his mind. He hadn't discussed it with Lin Chunhua yet, and if it weren't for the poisoning incident, it might have been delayed even longer.
After what happened today, he finally understood that everyone in his family took advantage of Chunhua's vulnerability and used this as an excuse to make trouble. Even though it was his own fault, he blamed Chunhua.
In fact, he was the one who picked the porcini mushrooms, but no one mentioned it.
Since this family can't accommodate her, why not separate and live separately?
It saves me from having to face their ugly faces every day, which is too upsetting.
Moreover, he saw that Lin Ye and the others were living better and better lives after they settled down, and they were incredibly comfortable. As long as he had the ability, he wouldn't have to worry about going hungry in the future.
Wang Fugui had a cigarette dangling from his lips, his face as sour as to be blacker than the bottom of a pot.
He has absolutely no skills, yet he has the nerve to suggest separating from the family and living separately!
The eldest brother has a father-in-law like the team leader, and the couple always have full work points, and he often helps them out.
The third son is even worse off. His father-in-law is a tailor who earns at least a hundred yuan a month. He dotes on his daughter, otherwise he wouldn't have let her marry into the countryside.
If the family really splits up, his family will be struggling to make ends meet, and he won't help him out!
Thinking about it this way, Wang Fugui felt even more disgusted with Lin Chunhua.
Grandma Wang was in a great mood at the thought of having a dress to wear. When she heard her second son make this condition, she immediately agreed. It's just about living separately, so she agreed.
"However, we old folks can't be careless about our retirement..." Old Mrs. Wang squinted her eyes and used her fingers to calculate how much they should spend each month.
The elderly couple would need to spend at least ten yuan a month on food, clothing, and other necessities, so...
Before he could figure it out, Wang Tiegang interrupted, "I'll pay you three yuan a month, but you have to give me a share of the money you have now."
Grandma Wang wasn't a very good thrifty person. She only had a few dozen yuan saved up. Even if it was divided equally among the two people in the second son's family, they wouldn't get much. This deal was worthwhile!
“Okay, let’s do it this way. Tomorrow, call the Party Secretary and the team leader over, and we’ll sign a contract. No one can deny it!” Wang Xiuzhi’s eyes gleamed.
After the matter was settled, Lu Wanqing and the others should head back.
Every family has its own problems, and in this kind of family, my sister can only rely on herself to stand up for herself.
Before leaving, Lu Wanqing slipped 20 yuan into Lin Chunhua's hand, saying, "We've bought a lot of things since the family split up. Use these for now, and let me know if you need more."
Lin Chunhua refused to accept the money, saying, "How can I take your money? I still need you to make a dress for my mother-in-law. The cost will be deducted from the amount of porcini mushrooms we sold this time."
Lu Wanqing took such good care of her mother, and even stepped in to help her out of trouble when she was in trouble. She didn't know how to express her gratitude, so she could only live her life well and not let them worry.
Lin Chunhua saw them off quite a distance, until they were out of sight, before she came to her senses and found Wang Tiegang standing at the gate of the courtyard waiting for her.
"Tiegang, thank you for today." Lin Chunhua helped him up and slowly walked him into the house.
Wang Tiegang smiled bitterly: "Don't talk nonsense. I was too cowardly before, and you suffered because of me."
When husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can break even metal; their future will surely get better and better...
......
Back home, Lin Xiaocui anxiously inquired about the Wang family's situation. She breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that the matter had been resolved and that Sister Chunhua was unharmed.
If I were in her helpless and isolated position, I really don't know what I would do!
That's how girls are. At home, they might be exploited by their parents. After they get married, they might be bullied by their in-laws and sisters-in-law. Only when they become strong can others stop bullying them.
With this in mind, she made up her mind to work hard to earn money, finish high school properly, and get her diploma.
Seeing her deep in thought, Lu Wanqing smiled and asked, "You did a great job delivering the message today. How would you like us to repay you? How about we make you a dress too?"
"Sister-in-law, forget about the skirt, I want a tracksuit. I have a classmate who looks so energetic in a Plum Blossom brand tracksuit. But tracksuits are very expensive, aren't they? I only have a little over 4 yuan on me right now." Lin Xiaocui looked a little disappointed.
Lu Wanqing patted her head. "What's so difficult about that? I'll just buy you a set. But we'll have to wait until next time we go to the county town to buy some fabric for the sportswear."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Lin Xiaocui smiled sweetly.
What should I do? She's about to become a complete fangirl of her sister-in-law. Will her own mother beat her to death?!
Lin Ye was holding a sickle, wearing a straw hat, and getting ready to go to work when he heard their conversation and gave Lu Wanqing a grateful smile.
My wife is wonderful; she's both beautiful and kind.
He was usually very punctual for work, and he was already late when he got home. He dawdled and waited until Lin Xiaocui left before pulling Lu Wanqing to a corner, hiding from his mother's gaze, and kissing her before leaving.
Lu Wanqing blushed deeply, feeling incredibly embarrassed that they were kissing in broad daylight.
But the thought that they only got together in middle age in their previous life, and that they can now play music together in harmony, fills her heart with sweetness.
They really got together; it felt like a dream, so fantastical and unreal.
As evening fell, the group sat under the big locust tree to cool off, but Zhao Xiaolan didn't go to sleep. Lu Wanqing felt inexplicably anxious and realized that something had really happened.
The moonlight is enchanting, and the stars appear sparse.
The chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs create the only noise on a midsummer night.
"Mom, it's time to go to sleep," Lin Ye urged.
Zhao Xiaolan teased the snowball, showing no signs of sleepiness. "It's still lit up. I want to play a little longer."
There's light coming from somewhere; it's clearly moonlight.
Lu Wanqing fanned her with a palm leaf fan and gently coaxed, "Mom, if you don't go to bed early, you won't be able to get up tomorrow and you won't be able to make clothes!"
Upon hearing that she couldn't have her clothes made, Zhao Xiaolan quickly got up, muttering, "I'll make my clothes tomorrow, I'll make my clothes tomorrow," and obediently went to bed.
Snowball: "......"
Women are so easy to fool!
It won't fall for that; it wants to play a little longer!
"Go to sleep!" Lu Wanqing said through gritted teeth, "Otherwise, you won't get any chicken legs tomorrow."
Okay, it can't be fooled, but it can be coerced or bribed!
Snowball obediently lay down on the bed.
Fifteen minutes later, Lu Wanqing returned to the big locust tree, coughed twice, and said, "Mom and Xueqiu are both asleep."
Lin Ye sat in the chair, looking at her with a smile, and said, "Mm."
Seeing that he didn't make any further moves, Lu Wanqing turned around shyly and said, "Then I'll go back to sleep too."
But Lin Ye grabbed her hand, and the next second, she was straddling his body.
A hoarse voice sounded in my ear: "Wife, you haven't taken a shower yet."
