Because of this concern, Zhou Xiaolan, relying on the baby in her belly, tore her family apart.
Hua Xiangyun held Tian Guihua's hand, taking the opportunity to help her recuperate.
Tian Guihua felt a warm current flow from her palms into her body, and she looked at Hua Xiangyun with pursed lips.
He wanted to ask, but seeing Hua Zhian still sitting there drinking water, he could only hold back.
"Grandma, we had a good haul today, shall we have a snack?" After resting, Hua Zhian began to organize the day's harvest.
Tian Guihua then realized that something was missing from the house. "Go and call your parents out. It's so late, why aren't you starting to prepare?"
Could it be that he's coming back expecting this old woman to serve him?
Hua Zhian felt some resistance, but he still obediently stood up and went to call for help.
Xun Liangfen, who was hiding in her room crying, had already heard the commotion, but her eyes were red from crying and she didn't have the courage to go out.
Her children are not caring, and even in her current state, she is still asked to go out and work.
But she was still feeling guilty and didn't even dare to answer.
I was thinking of waiting for my son to call me again, so I said I wasn't feeling well and would just get through the day first.
"Mom, is everything alright at home?" Hua Baoguo went to visit his childhood friend in the next courtyard, but when he heard that someone was causing trouble at his doorstep, he rushed back.
Tian Guihua: "What could possibly be wrong? If something happened, by the time you get back, it'll be too late."
"You scared me! I heard from others that you hit Zhi'an? Did that kid misbehave and make you angry?"
Don't get angry with him. If he misbehaves in the future, tell me and I'll deal with him.
"By the way, where's that kid? Where's he hiding?"
Hua Zhian, who was hiding in the kitchen washing seaweed, wondered, "Should I take the basin out and show my face?"
Tian Guihua laughed sarcastically, "Others are always so enthusiastic about our family's affairs."
Luckily, your dad put up this wall back then, otherwise these people would be blocking our door every day.
Okay, I was just joking with the child.
What's wrong with you and your wife? You know we've all gone out, but you haven't even tidied up the house.
You used to complain about Xiaoguai, so why is that basin of dirty clothes still lying there?
"Her mother didn't even teach her how to be a proper daughter-in-law, and she has the nerve to teach our children?"
The owner of the dirty clothes thought, "..." It's all his own fault. He shouldn't have changed his clothes. He wonders what would happen if he put those clothes back on now.
Hua Xiangyun kneaded the dough while watching his expression; this could be described as a bloodbath caused by a basin of dirty clothes.
Hua Baoguo had already noticed that the room door was tightly closed. "Mother, wait a moment, I'll tidy up."
Tian Guihua's face darkened as she asked, "Is she unhappy that you handed me the passbook?"
Hua Baoguo quickly shook his head, "How could that be? Our family hasn't split up yet, and besides, we haven't contributed a single penny to the household all these years. This is all just what we should do."
We were wrong before, and from now on I will hand over my salary every month.
She probably just had a little argument with me, and she's in a bad mood.
Tian Guihua said, "She's already in her fifties or sixties, and she's still throwing a tantrum."
She doesn't expect me and the kids to still wait on her hand and foot, does she? I think she's gotten too comfortable these past few years and has become a bit arrogant.
In ordinary life, there aren't so many trivial matters, but when people get together during holidays, disputes arise.
Furthermore, Xun Liangfen's actions made Tian Guihua, who had been holding back for so long, no longer want to endure it.
She's been a very good mother-in-law all these years. Besides working, she's also taken care of several children. Instead of being grateful, she's been met with complaints.
Hua Zhian quietly moved closer to Hua Xiangyun, "Little sister, what should we do? Look at the situation at home..."
Hua Xiangyun shook her head, "I wanted to ask you that too..."
Hua Zhian peeked outside and asked, "Why don't you go and call Mom out?"
Hua Xiangyun turned around and looked him over. "Second brother, why aren't you going? You're more suitable than me!"
Hua Zhian: "...Then what should I say?"
"You don't even know, and you still want me to go?" Hua Xiangyun turned her head away and ignored him. "I don't want to go and get scolded."
"..." Hua Zhian felt that he had caused this trouble, and he couldn't let the family fall into an argument. "Then I'll go and wash the clothes first."
Once the clothes are washed, all the arguments will cease.
Hua Xiangyun tentatively asked, "Second Brother, do you also think I should help you with your laundry?"
"How could that be?" Hua Zhian quickly said, "Even if you want to wash, I can't let you."
He cares about saving face. Besides, they never let his younger sister do laundry at home before, so it's even less likely now that she's older.
“So it’s not about whether or not to do laundry,” Hua Xiangyun said quietly. “It’s that Mom thinks I’m too idle and feels that I have to take care of everything at home and outside.”
Second brother, does Mom also think I'm a money-loser?
Upon hearing those three familiar words, Hua Zhian's face changed. These three words used to appear very frequently when they visited his maternal grandmother's house.
"Don't talk nonsense. There's no such saying in our family. Besides, look how much your grandparents love you, and your older brother and I protect you even more."
Hua Zhian didn't want to go out and mediate the fight anymore. His mother had actually shown signs of favoring boys over girls for a long time, but it hadn't been revealed because the grandmother was in charge of the family.
Hua Baoguo still felt angry with Tian Guihua, "Mother, for so many years, Liangfen has been taking care of her own family, and she's getting more and more unreasonable..."
"You only just realized that?" Tian Guihua pushed her silly son away from her, so that his foolishness wouldn't affect her.
