"Eat, eat, eat! You're the reincarnation of a starving ghost! How dare you mention the rules in front of me? I'll tell you not to eat!"
In a fit of rage, she picked up a hatchet and chopped the inch-thick dining table in half, confirming her position in the family in front of the horrified eyes of the Xu family.
"From now on, my words will be the rules of this family."
As she spoke, she slapped the knife next to Boss Xu's head, scaring him so much that he shuddered and obediently went into the kitchen to cook for the family.
It was not acceptable if the food was not tasty, so Meng Yuqin sent it back to be redone. Later, Old Lady Xu, who could not bear to see him waste food, came to help and personally set rules for herself on the day the new daughter-in-law entered the house.
With her good example, when the second and third sons of the Xu family got married, Mrs. Xu didn't care about anything anymore. She met with them in a friendly manner and gave them money to change their names.
Old Mrs. Xu was thrown into the home of her third son by her, and her quality of life really went from heaven to hell.
The Xu family has few people and both parents are working. Meng Yuqin was sent by her father to work in a slaughterhouse, where she could eat meat every now and then. But Xu San could hardly even get enough to eat, and only had coarse grains that choked his throat.
Such a huge gap, coupled with the quarrels of her four grandchildren, gave her a splitting headache and made her hate everyone.
Old Mrs. Xu felt that her life was shortened. After enduring for a few days, she bowed her head and admitted her mistake to Meng Yuqin, promising that she would never care about the affairs of Mr. Xu's family again.
The bigger reason was that during the time she lived in her third son's house, the couple had to eat cakes and pastries without her knowledge and secretly feed the child boiled eggs.
He deliberately fed her the worst food and made her cry poor when asked, obviously aiming for her living expenses.
This behavior chilled her heart.
She understood instantly that the third son would be absolutely unreliable for her future support, and it was not worth it to offend her eldest son's family for him.
The money had not been collected yet, and the Xu family had not yet decided to buy a house. The two older brothers lost their patience and thought of buying the house each, but they didn't know that due to this delay, new residents would move into the yard.
They felt they understood and only blamed the third brother for being slow.
They neither agreed nor refused. When asked, he always said, "Think about it again." He even threatened to not let them buy first, saying that they were not united with their brothers and had caused them to miss the opportunity.
But Xu Laosan didn't think so. He blamed his mother for not wanting to pay, his two brothers for being too selfish and not helping their younger brother, and the two new tenants for occupying the place he had his eyes on.
