Chapter 211: Sadness, a Woman Driven Crazy (1)
"Mother……"
Daya watched Liu Xiangmei fall down and struggled hard to get up from the bed.
But her body has not recovered yet, her limbs are soft and she has no strength.
Jiang Ning stood by and hugged her gently to prevent her from moving.
“Wuwu…wuwu…wuwu…”
The entire infirmary was filled with Liu Xiangmei's suppressed crying.
Her helplessness, her grievances, her heartache...
I said out loud all the words that were stuck in my heart, without caring about my face.
Liu Xiangmei clutched her clothes on her chest with one hand and supported herself on the ground with the other, crying with a choked voice.
"You all say behind my back that I'm stingy, that I'm cheap, that I love to take advantage of small opportunities... I know it all! I know it all!... I used to be someone who cared about face, do you think I want to live like this? Don't I want to buy whatever I like? Don't I want to give my children good food and clothes?"
"My husband, Lao Chen, only gets 50 yuan a month, 20 yuan of which he has to send back home. This was agreed upon when we split up the family. But...but those people are greedy and keep asking for money, keep asking for money...from 5 yuan more, 10 yuan more...at most, they even asked for 40 yuan a month...I only have 10 yuan in my hand! Only 10 yuan!"
"I also want to buy new clothes, candy, and toys for my children... but with only ten dollars, it's not enough to buy flour. I can only split a penny and spend it as two cents. I want to pick up everything you don't want and take it home. I want to take advantage of anything good I see."
"I'm not like this... I wasn't like this before... I was educated and went to junior high school. I know what propriety, righteousness, integrity, and face are... Even I don't know, I don't know... How did I become like this..."
Saying these words was like Liu Xiangmei's heart was cut open by a knife.
She exposed the deepest secrets and the ugliest parts of her heart to others.
Pain and struggle have always been tightly entangled in her body.
Outsiders only see Liu Xiangmei's stinginess and miserliness, but they don't know that behind her identity as "the lover of the battalion commander" she hides such a heavy yoke.
For a while.
The entire infirmary was silent.
Everyone looked at each other.
Only Liu Xiangmei's sobbing was so obvious.
She shed bitter tears, her hands hanging heavily on the ground.
He bit his gums tightly and squeezed out the following words.
"A while ago, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, as you all saw, came as soon as they said they would. Suddenly, there were two more mouths to feed at home. I was so worried that I couldn't sleep every night. I even sold the silver bracelet my parents gave me to finally get some money."
"At first, they said they would stay for a few days and then leave. Later, they said they would leave as long as they found a suitable match for my sister-in-law. But Chen Xing'er's eyes were in the sky. Not only did she not find the right person during the blind date, but she also offended the person. My old Chen bought cigarettes and gave away wine to settle the matter."
"Now they say that as long as they find a job for Chen Xing'er, my sister-in-law can move out, and my mother-in-law can go back to her hometown. I thought... as long as I can find a job... as long as I can find a job... The reason why I walk down the mountain so many times every day is to find her a job and send these two ancestors away!"
As these words came out.
Everything is clear now.
On days when there are no shuttle buses, the simplest but most difficult way is to walk down the steep mountain road to the city.
Generally speaking, sisters-in-law won't do this unless there are special circumstances.
But recently.
Liu Xiangmei was not at home every day, leaving her two children alone at home and going to the city every day.
She did it not for herself, but to find a job for Chen Xing'er.
As long as Chen Xing'er has a job and a salary, she can support herself.
Then Aunt Chen has no reason to stay in the compound any longer and can return to her hometown with peace of mind.
Only when these two people are gone can Liu Xiangmei's life return to normal.
Listen to what Liu Xiangmei said.
Everyone feels as if their heart is being weighed down by a stone.
We are all women, and we all understand how difficult it is for a daughter-in-law to be caught in a family relationship, especially the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
But……
"Liu Xiangmei, do you really believe what those two people said? Do you think they will leave if Chen Xing'er finds a job?"
A sister-in-law asked back.
This is also what Jiang Ning wanted to say.
Both Aunt Chen and Chen Xing'er were like blood-sucking worms, clinging tightly to the couple and trying to suck them dry.
There is no intention of stopping.
Liu Xiangmei...is she really so naive?
Liu Xiangmei, who was sitting on the ground, raised her face and looked at the people around her with a look of grievance.
She said sadly.
"Do I have any other choice but to believe?"
The request made by Aunt Chen and Chen Xing'er was Liu Xiangmei's last hope.
There is no other way out except to believe.
This is what Liu Xiangmei did. She trapped herself in a trap from which she could not escape.
After hearing this, the sisters-in-law couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
It is said that every family has its own problems, but no one could have imagined that behind Liu Xiangmei's daily talking and laughing, there were so many things hidden.
Until the moment she was completely crushed...
Wang Chunxia was the person who cursed the most just now, and is also the one who feels the most sorry for Liu Xiangmei now.
We are all women, and we can empathize with this kind of thing the most.
Wang Chunxia squatted down, pulled up Liu Xiangmei who was slumped on the ground, and helped her sit on a chair nearby. °
Right next to Arya's bed.
Liu Xiangmei finally saw Erya’s pale little face.
"Arya, Arya... my poor child... Arya..."
She stroked Erya's face gently with her trembling hands, and lay down on the ground trembling, moaning softly.
Everyone noticed Liu Xiangmei's trembling shoulders and couldn't bear to watch any longer, so they all turned their heads away.
Jiang Ning also understood the whole story.
Her brows, which were already furrowed, furrowed even tighter.
It’s not that she didn’t understand Liu Xiangmei, but she found the biggest problem among so many things.
That is...
Where is Chen Wenbin?
In this family relationship, what about Chen Wenbin, who is a husband, a son, a brother, and even a father? !
He was almost non-existent.
It was as if everything was Liu Xiangmei's responsibility alone and had nothing to do with him as a man.
But isn't this man the cause of all these problems?
