Chapter 5: Counterattack, a mess
The Jiang family lived in the staff quarters of a state-owned steel plant, a house that was divided between Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu.
The house is a two-story ground floor house, which is definitely a good environment in this era.
However, this small ground floor house is home to three generations and two families, a total of eight people.
The house was crowded and divided into five rooms.
There was one for Old Lady Jiang - that is, Jiang Li, one for Jiang Yuanshan and his wife, one for Jiang Erhai and his wife, one for Jiang Erhai's son Jiang Qinglin, and even Jiang Xinrou had a separate room.
Only the original owner...
So pitiful, like Cinderella.
Not even a room of my own.
I still have to sleep in the same room with Jiang Li.
Even at night, he had to help Old Mrs. Jiang go to the bathroom.
If otherwise.
She could only sleep in the dirty and messy little kitchen.
This is not the treatment of an only child at all; it's simply that of a pitiful little maid.
It's still free.
Jiang Ning recalled the original owner's memories and really wanted to rush in and beat up the Jiang family.
Jiang Ning has already prepared himself mentally to face such a group of troublesome family members.
But the moment the door opened.
Jiang Ning still underestimated the ungrateful and shameless face of this ungrateful guy.
…
"Haha, overtime? You keep talking about overtime, but I don't know if it's true or not? I think you just think I'm old and confused, so you're deliberately fooling me, right?"
"Look at you now. You are not a good daughter-in-law? You don't wash clothes or cook at home. You think about things outside all day long. You want us to wait for you with empty stomachs?"
"Hurry up! Qinglin will be back from school soon...Have you cooked the egg custard he ordered? It must contain two eggs!"
Jiang Li is already in his sixties, but when he scolds someone, he is still full of energy.
She stood at the kitchen door with her hands on her hips, pointing inside.
And in the small kitchen.
There was a thin and slender figure, it was the original owner's mother, Gu Yunshu.
Gu Yunshu is as her name suggests, she is a gentle and ladylike person who always speaks in a soft voice.
With her personality, she is like a softie and is no match for the unruly and domineering Jiang Li.
Next to it. ^
There was also a man standing there.
It was the original owner’s father, Jiang Yuanshan.
When Jiang Yuanshan saw his wife being scolded, he felt distressed and wanted to lend a hand.
He tried to explain.
"Mom, Yunshu and I work in the same steel factory. How could I not know whether she worked overtime or not? We were busy at the factory today and I really couldn't rush back..."
"Shut up! Why are you butting in when we women are talking? It's because you usually protect her that she can't even do such a small thing! What kind of woman doesn't wash clothes, cook and take care of men? Isn't that what I went through before?"
Jiang Li interrupted Jiang Yuanshan rudely.
She also pushed Jiang Yuanshan and stopped him from helping Gu Yunshu cook.
It is said that a daughter-in-law eventually becomes a mother-in-law.
Jiang Ning saw for himself today what a mother-in-law means!
But at the same time.
Jiang Ning also went up the stairs and took a look at the second floor.
That room was the room of Jiang Erhai and his wife Chen Meilan.
These two people don't have to go to work during the day, but they don't have to do anything else. They just stay in the room and listen to the radio.
Why don’t we see Jiang Li forcing Chen Meilan to do laundry and cooking? !
What a double standard.
Jiang Ning was thinking angrily.
Jiang Li's sinister gaze had already been fixed on her.
A wave of sharp accusations came towards me.
"You stinky girl, you finally came home?! What were you doing so late? The wife behaves like a bad wife, and the daughter she taught is just as bad!"
Jiang Li not only scolded Jiang Ning, but also extended her hand.
"Hand over your salary now!"
Jiang Ning frowned and asked, "What salary?"
Jiang Li saw that she refused to hand over her salary and even dared to talk back.
Suddenly I got angry.
She shouted, "What other salary can it be?! Your salary from the textile factory is 20 yuan a month, five catties of grain coupons, and two catties of oil coupons. Give them all to me!"
Jiang Ning's ears hurt because of what she said.
She thought about it carefully and remembered that today was indeed the day when the textile factory paid wages.
However, the original owner went on a blind date with Qin Jiulie and took half a day off, so she missed the payday.
So I haven’t received my salary yet.
The money and notes Qin Jiulie gave her were also put into the spiritual treasure space by her early on.
She understands the principle of not showing off your wealth!
"I don't have a salary. Even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you."
Jiang Ning was not polite at all and spoke directly.
When Jiang Li heard this, her wrinkled face suddenly turned red with anger and her eyes narrowed.
She picked up the feather duster that was placed aside.
Raise your arms.
He attacked Jiang Ning.
"mom--"
"Aning——"
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu shouted nervously and looked at Jiang Ning worriedly, but they stood far away and had no time to stop him.
but.
An unexpected scene happened.
The feather duster in Jiang Li's hand did not fall heavily on Jiang Ning.
Instead, it was in mid-air.
Jiang Ning reached out and caught him red-handed.
Jiang Ning is not the weak and easily bullied original owner, he will not curl up and take a beating.
She exerted force and threw the feather duster in her hand heavily to the ground.
He pushed the already hunched Jiang Li, causing her to stagger back a few steps.
“You—you—”
Jiang Li had never expected it to turn out like this. She was used to being fierce, and this was probably the first time she had encountered something like this.
Her lips trembled and she was unable to speak.
Jiang Ning snorted coldly.
"Grandma, that's my salary. I worked hard to earn every penny from the textile factory.
Why should I give it to you? Did you give me food or clothes? Which piece of my clothes wasn’t thrown to me by Jiang Xinrou because she didn’t want it anymore? ! ”
She questioned coldly.
Every word stabbed Jiang Li's lungs.
Especially the word "Grandma", which was very ironic.
Jiang Li's face turned red with anger, her chest heaving, and she took several breaths before finally catching her breath.
Seeing that the enemy was too cruel, the cunning old woman simply sat down on the ground and began to cry and scream to the sky.
"This is outrageous... This is really outrageous... Jiang Yuanshan, look at your good wife, your good daughter... Open your eyes and see... How they treat your mother... You are going to force me to death... Force me to death..."
Such a commotion.
The expressions of Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu on the side became conflicted and solemn.
They wanted to appease Jiang Li, but they knew Jiang Li's temper clearly. The more they appeased her, the more violent she would become.
The two people looked at each other in bewilderment.
Jiang Ning has the best solution for this kind of thing.
That is——
Watch from the sidelines.
Turn a blind eye.
Let her have her own way.
Jiang Ning didn't even glance at Jiang Li who was crying and shouting.
She took a big step and stepped over Jiang Li who was sitting on the ground.
Walk straight into the kitchenette.
"Mom, we're not going to cook today. I'm taking you and Dad out to eat."
Talking.
Jiang Ning took the kitchen knife from Gu Yunshu's hand, held her hard-earned and rough hand tightly, and pulled her out of the small kitchen.
Gu Yunshu was stunned and relied entirely on Jiang Ning's actions.
With trembling and surprised eyes, he kept looking at Jiang Ning.
This moment...
Gu Yunshu seemed to not recognize the daughter in front of her.
Jiang Ning not only held Gu Yunshu's hand, but also pulled Jiang Yuanshan, who was struggling and dazed beside him, and held him tightly.
Holding the hand of this honest middle-aged couple, he walked past Jiang Li without looking back.
Jiang Li had never expected that things would turn out like this, and her crying and shouting were all in vain.
The whole person seemed to be stunned, staring at all this in a daze.
It wasn't until Jiang Ning and his parents walked to the door that he suddenly reacted.
Jiang Li shouted, "If you all leave, who will cook?"
Jiang Ning turned around.
He sneered at Jiang Li and made a mocking sound.
"Grandma, didn't you say that a daughter-in-law should do the laundry and cooking? You have more than one daughter-in-law, my mom. There's another one upstairs. Just let whoever you want to be your daughter-in-law do the laundry!"
Jiang Ning's words were extremely clever.
Jiang Li never considered Gu Yunshu as her daughter-in-law, so why should she ask her to do what a daughter-in-law should do?
After the sarcastic words fell.
Jiang Ning walked out of the house with his parents without looking back.
Jiang Li was still sitting on the ground in a mess.
The feather duster that Jiang Ning had just thrown down fell next to her.
It's really a mess.
