Zhang's mother also smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, I just said it casually. Life has not been easy for our family in the past two years. Since the third child left, we have not received the monthly allowance. His father and I have been living a tight life every day, so -"
Mother Zhang was interrupted by Wang Xiuzhi halfway through her words.
Zhang Guohua had just returned when the old couple started talking about money intentionally or unintentionally.
He even deliberately cried poor in front of so many villagers.
It's obvious that he wants to take advantage of the opportunity to extort money.
Although Wang Xiuhe was determined to cure Zhang Guohua's illness and did not want him to be upset.
But Wang Xiuzhi couldn't stand it, so she took advantage of the two people going to the backyard to watch and started to confront them directly.
"If I remember correctly, half of the last pension is still several hundred yuan. What you usually eat in the village is grown on the land. How many dollars can you spend in a year? How can you live a tight life? Why do you cry poor as soon as you come back, Guohua?"
"We are outsiders and don't know, but you can ask the men in your village to judge for yourself. Is your family's condition considered bad in the village?"
As soon as Wang Xiuzhi finished speaking, the people who were watching the fun in the yard joked, "How can it be bad? The Wang family is one of the best in our village."
"That's right. There are three sons in the family who work in the fields to earn work points. Although the third son is not here, the pension is so much that it can be used for many years if we save it!"
"Yes, old lady Zhang, if your family's conditions were considered bad, we wouldn't be able to survive!"
Mother Zhang was furious when she heard people in the village speaking for people from other villages.
He stretched out his hand as if to chase them away, "Go away, go away, go somewhere cooler, what do you have to do with it?"
After saying that, he looked at Wang Xiuzhi earnestly, "Xiuhe's sister, you don't know, although the pension can't be spent in a short time, it can't withstand his death. When the third brother was in the army, he sent money back every month."
Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but sneer when she saw this, "Old man, are you treating your son like a bank? If I remember correctly, you separated three years ago. Even if your uncle still has a monthly allowance, it is impossible for him to give it to you."
Zhang's mother glared angrily, "I'm his mother, who else can he give it to if not me?"
"Of course I'll give it to his wife. The family has already been divided, and the captain has evidence. Do you think you'd regret it?"
"Even if we split up, I am still his mother, and he has to be filial to me."
"That's true, but you have four sons. Even if you want to be filial, you should treat them equally. The pension I gave you before is enough for my uncle to be filial for a lifetime. Let's talk about the future when other people have that much money!"
After Jiang Qingyue finished speaking, Zhou Zhengting silently gave her a thumbs up where no one else could see.
I originally thought she was the kind of person who wouldn't fight or compete.
I didn't expect that I wouldn't lose even if I had a quarrel in the countryside.
Zhang's mother was already pissed off by Jiang Qingyue and her daughter, and then she saw the villagers were speaking up for them.
He was so angry that he shouted at the old man and his three sons and their wives, "You are all dead, and you don't even know how to say a word for me."
The three sons are still dreaming of going to Beijing to make a lot of money.
Especially when he met Zhou Zhengting and Jiang Qingyue and found out their identities, he didn't dare to offend them.
I had been thinking of getting close to him during dinner and seeing if I could find an opportunity to help him out.
How could I possibly offend these two people at this time?
So the three of them rushed to persuade their mother, "Mom, forget it, forget it, the third child is not having a good time right now, doesn't he still need to get sick and see a doctor?"
"Go away, how much does it cost to see a doctor? You know nothing."
Speaking of this, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help laughing.
He took out a stack of bills from his bag and said, "I really brought them. Here, take a look. These are just the expenses for medical treatment in Beijing. Do you want to see them?"
Jiang Qingyue said as she reached out.
Zhang's mother took a glance and saw that she couldn't understand the densely packed numbers.
I felt even more uneasy in my heart, "I won't look at it, I, an old woman, can't understand this."
Jiang Qingyue smiled and said, "It's okay. If you don't understand, you can ask Captain Zhang to read it for you. He won't lie to you."
Seeing that she couldn't get away with it, Zhang's mother suddenly sat on the ground and started throwing a tantrum like a madman.
"Third brother, your mother and I have such a miserable life. We waited so long for you to come back, but as soon as you came back you found someone to piss off your mother—"
"Don't stop me. I don't want to live anymore. Anyway, the third brother is back now, and I have no regrets. Living will only waste food, and I will be despised by my son and daughter-in-law. What's the point of living?"
Seeing her throwing a tantrum like this, Jiang Qingyue looked at Zhou Zhengting helplessly.
Jiang Baoye and Wang Xiuzhi also leaned back silently.
The four of them watched her performance with indifference.
The people in the village seemed to be used to it and did not take her sudden madness seriously.
Just waiting to see the fun.
Some people even joked without giving any face, "Mrs. Zhang, you are not good. It's just thunder but no rain. Not even a tear has fallen!"
Wang Xiuhe and Zhang Guohua, who were in the backyard, heard the noise in the front yard and hurried over.
When I came over, I saw her lying on the ground crying.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
Zhang Guohua quickly stepped forward and pulled her, "Mom, what are you doing? Isn't it cold to sit on the ground in the middle of winter? Besides, there are so many people watching you make fun of yourself."
Wang Xiuzhi also pulled Wang Xiuhe and explained in a low voice what had just happened.
"It seems that she is thinking about the money. Qingyue and I were so angry that we had a quarrel with her."
Wang Xiuhe shook her head helplessly, "I thought she would feel better after Guohua came back, but I didn't expect it would still be money, money, money."
When Zhang's mother saw Wang Xiuhe and her sister whispering to each other, she became furious.
"Third brother, look at what kind of wife you married? Just as you got into trouble, she ran away with the Jiang family."
"Now that you've returned, you've brought outsiders with you to bully your mother. Your mother's life is so miserable. If you're really filial, drive this woman away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Guohua suddenly looked painful.
Suddenly he covered his head. Wang Xiuhe was so scared that she quickly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Zhang Guohua paused for a moment, as if he remembered something, and couldn't help but look up at his mother, "Mom, Xiuhe is not that kind of person."
Seeing this, Zhang's mother couldn't help but yell at him, "I think you've been fooled by this little bitch. She's not that kind of person. Am I bullying her?"
"How could she have gotten to Beijing City if she didn't run away? Who knows what a widow like her is doing out there?"
