Wu Jianguo thought, what can I do? What else can I do? Things have come to this point. I can only blame these gossipy servants.
"Okay, Song Zhiqing, Tang Zhiqing, I'll do as you say. I'll personally supervise and ensure we don't give you even a tael more.
I will lead by example, including my own mother, what do you think? Are you satisfied with this arrangement? "
Tang Yunting glanced at Wu Jianguo and said, "Captain, you said this as if we did it on purpose. You should take better care of the people in the village.
This wasn't our fault, and we didn't initiate it. Since you, Captain, have said so, we'll give you some face. We'll leave now, and you can go about your business."
"Wife, take the meat and let's go home. Make something delicious, like the roast leg of lamb you like."
"good."
Chu Xinyuo stomped her feet, almost angry to death. These two people really didn't take other people seriously.
Zhang Damei looked at her son and said, "Second brother, since you promised them, don't eat your share of the meat. Give it to me. I am your mother.
How come you, the team leader, are completely useless? You can't even control an educated youth, so what's the point of having you? "
Xu Guizhen put her hands on her hips and cursed, "You damn old woman, you are so shameless! Why should we give you our meat?
Take your pound of flesh and get out of here, or I'll chase you away with a broom. And don't play the victim in front of me, I won't take it."
"Everyone in the village knows what kind of person you are, a biased old woman. Your son is the head of the family, so it's hard for him to say anything. I don't have so many scruples.
If you treat me well, you are a mother-in-law. If you treat me badly, you are worse than a passerby."
"If you are biased, don't blame me for being unfilial to you. People are all made of flesh and blood.
My heart didn't turn cold overnight. Think about how you treated our family before. How come the eldest and the third child were yours, but the second child wasn't."
Zhang Damei: "Second brother, are you just watching your wife bully your mother like this? I really raised you in vain. If I had known you were so unfilial, I might as well have thrown you into the urine bucket and drowned you.
Look at your eldest brother, look at your third brother, neither of them is as unfilial as you, they really have married a wife and forgotten my life, why are you so miserable?"
"Are you leaving or not? Damn old woman, if you don't leave, I'll throw water on you. Since your eldest and third sons are so good, why do you need this little bit of meat from us?"
"Oh my God! Open your eyes and look at what kind of daughter-in-law this is. She has no conscience at all and even threw water at me, an old man. I can't live like this anymore."
Without saying a word, Xu Guizhen picked up a basin of water and poured it at Zhang Damei. Zhang Damei was chilled to the bone, from head to toe.
Wu Jianhua's wife, Xie Yunfen, immediately stood up and said sarcastically, "Sister-in-law, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? This is our mother, and you dare to splash water on her.
You are being extremely unfilial, you know that? If it were in ancient times, you would have been thrown into a pig cage."
Xu Guizhen looked at her third sister-in-law who loved to stir up trouble, "Xie Yunfen, you'd better shut up, or I'll beat you up too.
You are the only one who loves to stir up trouble in this family. You are the one who stirs up trouble for everything the old woman does."
"Don't think I don't know. I just can't see the good in our family, you rotten-hearted thing."
Wu Jianhua: "Second sister-in-law, how can you say that? Some things are decided by mother, and we as children can't do anything about it. How can you say that it was my wife who instigated it?
I really feel sorry for my second brother. How could such a good captain marry someone as fierce and unreasonable as you? "
"It's really unfortunate for our Wu family. And you, too, are a grown man being completely controlled by your wife. Didn't you see what he did to Mom just now?"
"Third brother, I advise you to be quiet and not take advantage of your mother's love for you and act like a troublemaker.
It’s none of your business what happens to my wife. If you want to eat meat, go ahead.”
Wu Jianhua thought that his second brother was still the same, and he could handle it just right.
He said that as long as his mother was around, his second brother would never be able to turn things around and would be suppressed all his life.
"If you want to eat, just bring money to buy it! I won't charge you more, just two yuan per pound. This is a friendly price, because we are brothers.
If it were someone else, I wouldn't sell it. Don't say that I, as the second brother, am not considerate of you, my brothers."
"What??? Second brother, are you crazy about money? Don't you know that you are the tail end of socialism?
Aren't you afraid that I will report you? Don't you care about our brotherhood at all?"
Xu Guizhen cursed, "You rotten-hearted bastard, you still want to report me? I tell you, if you don't let me have a good life, I won't let you have a good life either.
If you have the guts to go, I have the guts to break your legs. Besides, with your cowardly look, can you explain yourself clearly to those officials when you see them?
"You're just hiding behind women, get out of here! I feel like my eyes are burning if I look at you for even a second."
"You damned bastard, you actually dared to break my son's leg. You are so rebellious, so rebellious.
As the head of the household, why don't you take care of it? What are you still standing there for? Are you dead?
Others can't control it, so can't you?"
Wu Wenhai also knew that his second son had a gap with them, and he blamed himself for not giving them anything except a few pieces of clothing when the family was divided.
Who made the second son so capable? We have to admit that the second son is more capable than the third and eldest sons.
Since he has done it, he has no regrets. He thinks that since the second son is capable, he should be allowed to live on his own. As a father, what's wrong with him being a little partial to the eldest or third son?
The eldest son is his first son, so he must love the third son, but how can he not love and pamper his son who comes in his old age?
But if he had known that his second son would become the team leader, and later live such a good life and even build his own house, he would have asked him to contribute more money no matter what.
Thinking of the eldest and third sons, who are still living in that small house, he feels uncomfortable.
Old Man Wu took a puff of his cigarette and tapped the stem. "Second Brother, we are all family, why do you have to make things so awkward? As the saying goes, even if you break a bone, the tendons remain.
No matter how much brothers quarrel, they are still a family. There is no need to quarrel so fiercely over a piece of food."
"Don't you think so? You are now more capable than your eldest brother and third brother. I, the head of the family, am proud of you.
Now that you have the ability, you can also help your eldest brother and third brother. If our family can live a good life, wouldn't that be a happy ending for everyone?"
Xu Guizhen: "Old Wu, you are just a troublemaker hiding behind me."
