Chapter 25: If you can get by, get a divorce.
The door to the front room of the third house was locked. Mrs. Wei frowned and knocked on the door: "Old Third, open the door."
As soon as Yu Sanbao opened the door, he felt depressed.
Mrs. Wei walked into the house and poked Yu Sanbao's forehead with her finger: "You little bastard, who are you showing off your deadly look to? Tell me, what's going on?"
Yu Sanbao rubbed his hair for a while before saying in a muffled voice, "Mom, don't ask anymore."
Today he went to the county town to buy some snacks, took a piece of pork, and went to his father-in-law's house. He thought he could talk to his wife and son back, but his mother-in-law accepted the things, but said that if she wanted to take Su Rouer back, she had to let Wei Pozi send Xingxing away and apologize in person.
Yu Sanbao simply doubted his own ears.
He was not the kind of person who was so humble and had no opinion, so he asked Su Rouer whether this was her mother's idea or hers?
Su Rouer turned her head away and didn't look at him, but she said something. It didn't matter who meant it, what mattered was that he had to do it.
Yu Sanbao understood that this was a way of putting rules in place for him and his mother!
Yu Sanbao was a bad boy when he was young. If Old Man Yu and Mrs. Wei had not emptied half of the family's assets, he would probably still be in jail now.
He can pamper his wife, but that doesn't mean he can use her to rape his mother!
Yu Sanbao immediately said to Su Rouer with red eyes: "I'll ask you one last time, will you come back?"
Su Rouer had just had an argument with her sister-in-law Qian in the morning, and she was furious at the moment. She retorted directly: "No!"
She thought Yu Sanbao would coax her as usual, but she never expected that Yu Sanbao would turn around and leave!
…
Yu Sanbao was still in a daze when Mrs. Wei slapped him on the shoulder again, bringing him back to his senses.
Mrs. Wei raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you mean I should stop asking! What do you mean you should just pretend that there is no daughter-in-law? So what? How can you just pretend that there is no daughter-in-law? ... We used three matchmakers and six betrothals to bring back our daughter-in-law in a sedan chair, and you just say that you don't want her, so I should just pretend that there is no daughter-in-law?!"
Mrs. Wei became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She picked up a chicken feather whisk from the kang in the third room and started beating Yu Sanbao.
Yu Sanbao was beaten so hard that his teeth were bared and he dodged everywhere: "Mom! Mom! Stop hitting me!"
Mrs. Wei raised four sons and was very strong and skilled at beating her sons. She chased Yu Sanbao and beat him up. After a lot of effort, she finally got the truth out of Yu Sanbao.
Mrs. Wei threw away the feather duster and sneered, "You still want me to send Xing Xing away?! How dare the Su family say that! I adopted a little granddaughter, what the hell is it to them? Do you think they are eating a single grain of rice from the Su family?!"
Yu Sanbao was still grimacing in pain, but he no longer had the same stubborn energy as before. He hurriedly said, "Mom, I also told you, this is not okay."
Mrs. Wei got angry when she heard what her third son said and glared at him: "You said that your daughter-in-law is so careless with her family, isn't it because of your habit?!"
Yu Sanbao smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, am I the only one who is used to her? Since she got married, most of the housework has been done by the two sisters-in-law. Has she ever done any hard work? The eldest and second sisters-in-law are also kind-hearted. They think she is a girl from the county town and don't bother with her. Later I thought about it and realized that the whole family indulged her, and I also indulged her. I actually raised her to have a character that takes everything for granted. It's really wrong."
These words left Mrs. Wei speechless.
Yu Sanbao wiped his face and said, "Alright, Mom, stop trying to persuade me. If we can get along, we can live together. If not, we can get a divorce. We can't let life trap us to death."
Mrs. Wei was completely speechless. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, and she glared at her third son who was not guilty of anything. "Divorce, that's easy to say!"
"Okay, I'm old now, and I can't take care of your affairs anymore." Mrs. Wei said slowly, "You still have to get on with your life. After all, you still have Brother Ju."
Speaking of Ju Ge'er, Yu Sanbao smiled bitterly again.
Today, Ju Ge'er wanted to go back with him and cried until he was hoarse, but Su Rou'er and Su's mother forcibly covered his mouth and dragged him back.
As a father, he felt very upset.
When Mrs. Wei saw Yu Sanbao was silent, she knew what was happening in other people's homes, and even as a mother, there were some things that she couldn't interfere in.
As for what the Su family said, why did they ask her to come and apologize?
Mrs. Wei just sneered.
Dream!
She ignored me!
When coming out of the third room, Mrs. Wei turned around and glanced at her third son: "In case you don't know, Xingxing followed Huai and Bai to the mountains today and saved their lives from being crushed to death by a fallen tree. Just for this incident, if anyone says that sending Xingxing away is such a conscienceless thing in the future, don't blame me for pointing fingers and scolding them!"
Yu Sanbao wiped his face and said, "Mom, don't worry. I like Xingxing too, and I will never agree to it."
Only then did Mrs. Wei feel relieved and walked out of the third room.
In the evening, Old Man Yu and Yu Daniu, who had gone to the Yu clan, came back.
By this time Li Chunhua had already prepared the meal. Although Old Man Yu and Yu Daniu were in a heavy mood, they became more spirited as soon as they walked through the wooden gate and smelled the fragrance.
When the two entered the main house, they were stunned when they saw the large pot of mushroom stew on the dining table.
"Mom, what day is it today? Why is there still meat?" Yu Daniu sat down hurriedly. When he smelled that the mushroom stewed with meat was his wife's handicraft, his mouth was watering.
He suddenly thought of something and looked at the cheerful Huai and Bo. "What? Could it be that the trap really caught something?"
Huai'er nudged his younger brother Bai'er with his arm, signaling him to tell his grandfather and father about Xingxing's "glorious achievements" again.
Boger cleared his throat and told the story again in a vivid voice.
Yu Daniu was both terrified and relieved when he heard this, and he kept saying, "It's really our Xing Xing's fault!"
Old Man Yu couldn't hide his love for Xingxing, and picked her up: "Oh, our Xingxing has done a great job!"
Mrs. Wei's lips curled up, obviously very proud: "Our Xingxing is amazing!"
Xingxing smiled shyly and happily.
Li Chunhua distributed the food to Xingxing and gave her several pieces of meat. She said lovingly that Xingxing was too thin and needed to eat more.
Even Bai Xiaofeng, who usually loves to be sour, didn't say anything wrong.
Li Chunhua is a great cook. This pot of rabbit stewed with mushrooms is a long-lost meaty flavor. Although the rabbit is a little thin, it is freshly slaughtered and the mushrooms are delicious. The whole pot of mushroom stewed with meat soup made everyone's tongues almost swallow. In the end, there was no soup left. Several boys rushed to share it, and they wanted to lick the bottom of the bowl clean.
Everyone ate so much that their stomachs were full. Except for Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng who were cleaning the table, everyone started to walk out to digest their food.
