Even if they are not married, they are treated like maids or animals at home, with endless chores and constant suffering.
Just then, he heard a knock on the door.
Sang Youde walked over and saw through the crack in the door that the person who came was his granddaughter-in-law's mother-in-law.
What do you want from us?
He remembered that they weren't close.
The old woman's tone carried a faint threat, "I was mistreated here that day, and when I got back, I couldn't help but hit my daughter-in-law a few times, which is why my daughter-in-law was sent to the hospital and my granddaughter was starved to death."
“Your family bears some responsibility for this matter.”
"What do you want to do?" Sang Youde asked directly.
“I heard from others that you used to be a commander. I want you to use your old connections to get my son promoted.”
"And also, I want to exchange my house for one like yours, with a separate yard."
"In addition, we will compensate our daughter-in-law with the meat, eggs and milk from your family to help her recover. She is very weak after giving birth, and she will have to give birth to our grandchildren in the future, so she needs to take good care of her health."
Zhao Hui silently finished washing the vegetables, picked up a basin of the water, and walked over, gesturing for Sang Youde to move aside. Then, a piercing scream was heard, "Ah!"
"Zhao Hui, you old bitch!"
"How dare you splash water on me?"
"I'm going to fight you to the death!"
Separated by the wooden door, the old lady could only move her lips; she couldn't do anything else.
"If you don't get out of here, they'll throw swill at you!"
The old woman's eyes widened in fury. "How dare you!"
Without saying a word, Zhao Hui went to fetch the swill. When the old lady saw this, she ran away as fast as she could.
She ran while cursing Sang Youde and his wife.
Upon hearing this, the neighbors couldn't help but complain, "That granddaughter-in-law's mother-in-law is really something, she even dares to scold the commander."
“Xiaoyu’s maternal grandparents were both high-ranking officials. Even Commander Qin had to come over to greet them. I even heard Commander Sang call Commander Qin ‘Little Qin’ before.”
"That old lady's son is just a company commander. Who gave him the courage to insult a commander-level figure?"
"Based on our understanding of the Sang family, they are not people to be trifled with."
"When most of us encounter this kind of situation, we think it's better to avoid trouble."
"They might not be so sure; they've probably already complained to the military."
"Insulting a retired military officer is a serious crime."
Some people gloated, while others silently lit a candle in their hearts to pray for the old lady.
The old lady was unaware of the terrible trouble she had caused, and she returned home in a huff, taking out her anger on her daughter-in-law.
"You little slut, you've gotten quite bold these days!"
"You even dare to report your own mother-in-law, what else wouldn't you dare to do in the future?"
"When my son comes back, I'll have him beat you to death!"
As the old lady spoke, she grabbed a broom from the side and started hitting her daughter-in-law with it!
"Mom, stop hitting her!"
"Mom, I know I was wrong!"
"I will never do it again."
The granddaughter-in-law screamed in agony as she was beaten, and knelt down begging for mercy.
Hearing the commotion, the neighbors peered through their windows and got a clear view of what was happening inside.
This wasn't the first time something like this had happened, and they'd all become a bit too lazy to care anymore.
It's not that they're indifferent, but that their granddaughter-in-law is useless, and they're afraid that's why they went to help her get reinforcements, only to have her speak up for her mother-in-law the next second.
