Chapter 10: The highest level of quarreling
Shen Meng looked at everyone with a sad look on her face, sneering in her heart. The highest level of quarreling is not to scold the other party until her face turns red, but to be so irritating that the other party can't even speak, choking her to death.
Although the words were a bit unpleasant to the ear, they were the truth.
Shen Fugui and Wang Guizhi took Shen Meng to sit on the kang, thinking that their daughter's words were very good. This was not the time to force it. It was just like when they first came to the Lu family, they quarreled a few words because of impatience, and it was their fault in the eyes of outsiders.
After the two saw Shen Meng sitting down weakly, they silently pulled the children behind them. Although Mingyang failed to pull them, it did not prevent them from showing weakness.
Li Debang and Zhang Hongfa were really embarrassed by what Shen Meng said. During the busy farming season, there were cases of cows from the production team hitting people. When the cows went crazy, some people were killed. When Shen Meng was hit, only Zhou Jiaojiao was there.
When she was carried back by the members, she cursed Zhou Jiaojiao and said that she wanted to harm her, and that she was full of bad intentions and would kill her husband and children in the future. Zhou Jiaojiao had been married to their Lujia Village for more than half a year. She usually spoke softly, greeted everyone she met, and would help anyone who had a problem. On the other hand, Shen Meng was sneaky and had done many things, such as beating and scolding children.
In contrast, it was not necessary to see who was on the side of the two rooms.
But... no matter how Shen Meng cursed, she was indeed hit by the cow of the production team. Not to mention paying compensation and hiring a doctor, the production team didn't even come to take care of her. It was really unacceptable.
Lu Debang pursed his lips and frowned at Shen Meng, relying on his status as the village chief.
"Zhenping's wife, please speak in a nice way. Don't blame me for being so weird. At that time, Hongfa, I and several other members all asked your Lu family. They said it was okay, so we left. You saw it at that time. You can't lie in front of your family and your children!"
"Ah? The Lu family said I was fine. That can't be true. My head was dizzy and I couldn't remember anything. Was it my mother-in-law who said that, or Jiaojiao? Oh, I've been married for so many years and I didn't know. Did my mother study medicine? Or did Jiaojiao learn some nursing? It's my fault. Brother Changhong had to run all the way and use so much medicine to wash the wound. If it was a little later, my forehead might have become inflamed. After all, I still have half my life left. It's not a big deal."
Lu Debang: "......."
He said that women are the most difficult to deal with. He doesn't want to come if he doesn't want to, but Hongfa insists on him coming. Look at his unreasonable look, huh!
Liu Sanjin and Zhou Jiaojiao looked very unhappy. They naturally had not learned any medical skills or nursing. They just saw that Shen Meng had a bruise on his forehead, so they used the folk method to apply soot and spider webs to the forehead. Besides, the older generation did the same thing, so how could it get inflamed?
Liu Sanjin glanced at her. This woman was just being hypocritical.
"Forget it, forget it. Fortunately, my parents are here, and they can still see my children when they die. In front of the village head and the party secretary, I will say it again. At first, my family's three brick and tile houses were rented out. It was agreed that they could live in it for a year and pay two yuan in rent every month. But I didn't see a penny. That house was built by Zhenping of my family for several children. They were grown up and couldn't sleep together. Later, my mother said that Jiaxuan and Jiaojiao were getting married. Although the family had renovated a house, it was a happy event after all. She still wanted Jiaojiao's family to see the sincerity of the Lu family, so she let me give up the house and let them live there for a year. As the eldest sister-in-law, I brought the children to the old house for the sake of family harmony. The newly renovated house My parents live here, and our family of five lives in this old house with leaks everywhere. It doesn’t matter, I am willing to pay for the family, but I am afraid that I can’t do it now. I have given the title deeds and other things to Mingyang, Jiaxuan, Jiaojiao, and my sister-in-law has done enough. You should move out first. The house belongs to Mingyang and his brothers! But don’t get me wrong, my sister-in-law is not saying that you are playing tricks and don’t want to return it. That’s really not what I mean. "
Liu Sanjin: "......" Lu Jiaxuan:
"......."
Zhou Jiaojiao: "......."
Nonsense, what is the meaning of family harmony and prosperity? You are just pretending to be a big shot here for those two dollars!!!
The three of them were furious at these remarks, but Lu Debang and Zhang Hongfa didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, those were three brick and tile houses. Lu Zhenping's house was envied by everyone in the village. Their families also had brick and tile houses, but they only had two rooms, and they were very narrow. The houses next to the yard were still adobe houses. Even such houses were the first of their kind in Lujia Village.
How could such a good house be given to others to live in, not even brothers!
At first, some people were curious about why Shen Meng took the children back to live in the old house. What did she say at the time? Oh, for Jiaxuan's sake. After all, he was getting married, and he couldn't lose face. If soldiers' brothers got married, wouldn't it be a joke?
At that time, many people said she was stupid, and some people said she did a good job as a military dependent. Even several village cadres thought she was selfless and worthy of praise. But she didn't expect that she didn't get a penny of the two yuan rent a month.
How stupid! Not only did she not get a bargain, but her house was also occupied. She lost everything.
Lu Jiaxuan's face turned red. He didn't believe Shen Meng's words at all. His mother clearly said that she had given money. How could she not have given
money? "Sister-in-law, this is impossible. Didn't mother give you money every time? You can't lie, can you?"
"Jiaxuan, look at me, I've come to this point. I can't spend the money even if I have it. Do I still need to lie to you? As the old saying goes, a dying man speaks good words. It seems to be like that, right, Secretary? I don't want any money from you now. Mother uses the allowance given by Zhenping to pay the rent for you. Wouldn't Jiahe, Xianglan and Jinghao feel uncomfortable and say that mother is biased? Forget it, I don't want it anymore. Just let us go back to live. It's the last days, and I just want to live in my original house, wuwu...it's considered that I have fulfilled one of my wishes."
Liu Sanjin: "..."
Lu Jiaxuan: "......."
Zhou Jiaojiao: "......."
You are still trying to sow discord even at the end of your life. You are very capable. It doesn't look like you will die anytime soon!!!
At this point, if the Lu family didn't make any response, rumors would spread immediately. The mother-in-law felt sorry for her younger son, and while her elder son was away in the army, she planned to give the eldest son's house to live in, forcing the eldest daughter-in-law to death, and leaving several children without a mother.
Liu Sanjin could imagine how vividly this matter would be spread through the mouths of several old women at the entrance of the village.
"Xiao Meng, if you want to go home and live, just say it. Mother agrees. Oh, I'll give you the rent, six months, twelve yuan, I'll give it all to you. We don't have to calculate so clearly as a family. My dear daughter-in-law, as long as you can hold on, let alone twelve yuan and a brick and tile house, even if you want to suck my blood, I'm willing!" Liu Sanjin said these words with a look of grief on his face, and his heart ached.
Twelve dollars! That's twelve dollars. How long will it take to save it? This little girl really needs a lesson. I will definitely write a letter to the boss and complain about it.
Shen Meng couldn't help but groan twice. The old man's words were full of tea flavor.
"Yes, mother, I know you care about me. Then the children and I will move back tonight. Jiaojiao and Jiaxuan go back and pack up. Mother, I shouldn't take the money, but for the sake of the children's better life in the future, I will accept it. Thank you mother."
Liu Sanjin: "..."
Shameless, it's obvious that he wants money!!!
