Erlang gritted his teeth and said, "The distillery isn't mine, nor is it owned by my brother-in-law. It belongs to the Shen family! Why should my wife have to be provided with a job by the Shen family just so she can live a good life with me? If this happens, how can you hold your head high in the Shen family?"
He's not the kind of heartless person, much less an idiot.
His older sister has already sacrificed so much for him and for the family; he can't let his own affairs hold her back or become a burden.
Absolutely not!
“What’s so shameful about it? My elder sister is already a daughter-in-law of the Shen family, so she has a share in the Shen family’s winery. She didn’t do anything outrageous; she just arranged for my brother to work there. What’s wrong with that? Does the Shen family’s winery not need workers?”
Duan Xiaohong was getting anxious. How could these people be so stubborn?
It's such a small matter, why make such a big deal out of it?
“If it’s a trivial matter in your eyes, then you can go to the Shen family yourselves,” Zhao Di retorted directly.
Duan Xiaohong choked for a moment, unable to speak. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Big sister, are you deliberately watching Erlang and me suffer? How can you live with yourself like that?"
What are you saying?
Erlang pulled Duan Xiaohong away and said to Zhaodi with a flushed face, "Sorry, big sister, you should go quickly before it gets too late. Don't worry, you don't need to worry about Xiaohong's matter."
Zhao Di wasn't pretentious at all.
She really couldn't be bothered to serve Duan Xiaohong anymore. No matter how much you reasoned with someone like that, she wouldn't understand.
Because in Duan Xiaohong's heart and mind, she only cares about her own interests, and what others say is useless.
"good."
Zhao Di took the tiger-head hat and other items prepared by Zhao Shi and was about to leave.
But how could Duan Xiaohong just let her leave like that?
As he reached out to stop him, the tiger-head hat fell to the ground and got dirty.
"Oh dear, this is dirty... Oh, Zhaodi, don't worry, Mother will wash it for you, and we'll wash it later..."
"Smack!"
Before Zhao could finish her rambling, Zhao Di slapped Duan Xiaohong across the face.
She couldn't take it anymore.
Everyone was stunned.
At this moment, the room finally quieted down.
"You, you dare to hit me?"
Duan Xiaohong's eyes were bloodshot and she raised her hand to slap Zhao Di.
Without needing anyone else, Zhao Di grabbed Duan Xiaohong's arm and slapped her across the face.
Zhao Di angrily scolded, "You ungrateful wretch! I'll hit you! What are you?"
No one expected Zhao Di to suddenly lose her temper like that.
Even Erlang felt sorry for his wife, but looking at his elder sister, he couldn't bring himself to say a single word of reproach, and could only sulk in anger.
"Fine, you're very clever! I want a divorce, I want a divorce from your Mei family!"
"Divorce? Dream on. You're unfilial, disobedient to your parents-in-law, sow discord with your sister-in-law, and never do any work. Every single one of these things is enough for my family to divorce you! Not only will we divorce you, but we'll also make you return the betrothal gifts, or you can expect to see the authorities!"
Zhao Di revealed her ruthless side.
She has been holding back for a long time.
She originally thought that as long as Erlang was satisfied, and Duan Xiaohong was filial to her parents and sensible, she would turn a blind eye to many things.
Unexpectedly, Duan Xiaohong took advantage of the situation and went too far.
Since that's the case, then don't blame her for being rude.
"Big sister, what are you saying?"
Erlang exclaimed in surprise and refuted.
He never intended to divorce Xiaohong.
Zhao also grabbed Duan Xiaohong and explained, "Xiaohong, your older sister was just angry for a moment, she didn't mean it that way, you, you shouldn't be angry..."
Duan Xiaohong shoved Zhao Shi away, directing all her anger at Zhao Shi.
But in order to appease Duan Xiaohong and secure her son's marriage, Zhao pleaded in a humble voice.
Seeing this, Zhao Di closed her eyes and did not stop it.
It's hard to persuade a damn fool with kind words.
She opened her eyes and said coldly, "What I mean is that I'm divorcing Duan Xiaohong, that troublemaker. If you don't want to hear it, that's fine. Don't come to me with anything related to her in the future. I'm leaving now."
As for the dirty tiger-head hat, Zhao Di didn't take it in the end; she only took a pair of small shoes and a set of clothes with her.
She felt she had done enough in many ways.
But her mother wouldn't listen, her second son wouldn't listen, and she couldn't be bothered to care anymore.
Everyone has their own opportunities, so why should she interfere?
They're already so big.
Just live your life well.
After arriving at the Shen family's residence, Zhao Di composed herself before entering.
"That kid Erming, he just won't stay at home. Sigh, can you believe how infuriating he is?"
Worried that Zhao Di would mind, Tian Guifen preemptively complained about her son.
After all, the husband left right after the wedding, and the young wife would inevitably feel disappointed and even resentful.
So in situations like this, as the mother-in-law, she has to speak up for her daughter-in-law.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Di didn't care: "Mother, I'm fine. Er Ming has tried his best to spend time with me. He also said that he will try to spend half of his time at home in the future."
Many men work hard in their careers and neglect their families.
Moreover, it's not that Shen Erming neglects his family; it's just that he spends less time with them than most couples.
but……
"Hehe, Mom, don't worry about it. With my second brother's temper, it's better if he's not home every day, so he won't upset my sister-in-law. Absence makes the heart grow fonder; if we're apart for a month or so, we'll always be all lovey-dovey when we meet again. Isn't that better than all the arguing at home?"
Shen Liuliu came up with a smile, carrying several bowls of cheese.
The maid behind him was also carrying several bowls.
The maid's name was Shuangxi. She was a maid bought specifically to serve Shen Liuliu.
Tian Guifen and Shen Wanli were getting old and couldn't always stay by Shen Liuliu's side, and their brothers were all married, so there wasn't a girl of similar age in the family.
Moreover, Tian Guifen observed that her daughter and Tian Tian were not very close, so after discussing it with Shen Wanli, Tian Guifen bought a maid for her daughter.
I want to be there for my daughter as she grows up, so she won't be too lonely.
"Liu Liu's mouth is getting sharper and sharper. Look how you've made your second sister-in-law blush," Wang Xiuhe teased with a smile.
Zhao Di's face flushed even more.
Despite blushing, Zhao Di still managed to retort generously, "It must be because my sister-in-law taught me so well."
"Hahaha."
Seeing her daughter-in-law getting along well with her and her daughter, Tian Guifen smiled broadly, revealing her teeth.
As I get older, what I enjoy most is seeing a family living happily together.
"Come and try it. Shuangxi and I tried many times before we finally made it. This time it tastes pretty good." Shen Liuliu said as she handed a bowl to Tian Guifen.
