"This Black Widow has been tormenting my daughter ever since she got married. Not only does she have to do the laundry and cooking every day, she even has to wash her sister-in-law and mother-in-law's clothes. What's even more shameless is that she even takes my daughter's underwear to wash!"
This happened in the second month after Li Yuqin came into the house. Li Yuqin felt that it was not good to quarrel right after coming into the house, so she picked out their dirty clothes and threw them in the yard, and even threw their underpants outside the yard wall. Hu Xiaohong was so angry that she kept scolding them for three days at home.
"She's so short-sighted. She's always eyeing my daughter's dowry. She's always looking for excuses to borrow money, or crying poor. My daughter's private savings are almost gone!"
In fact, every time Hu Xiaohong nagged her, she pretended not to hear, or just turned away and went back to her room. That time, Hu Xiaohong said she wanted to make a dress for Wang Songbai, so she paid the money. But the dress ended up being worn by Wang Songhua. When she asked about it, Hu Xiaohong actually said that as the eldest sister-in-law, it was her duty to make clothes for her younger sister-in-law, implying that she thought she was too stingy!
"The most disgusting thing is that this old hag actually squatted under the couple's window in the middle of the night and listened. When the couple was about to do something, she banged on the door and then found an excuse to call her son away. How can my son-in-law and daughter not be separated after all this?"
Hu Xiaohong is not wrong in this regard. This woman has done many disgusting things.
"Wow~"
The villagers who were secretly listening with their ears perked up felt like they had eaten a big melon. They winked at each other, grinned mischievously, bumped into each other, and started discussing in a low voice.
"Hu Xiaohong, her husband has been dead for so many years, and she's been eavesdropping under her son's window every day. I'm afraid she's looking for another one."
"Her son is married, and her daughter will be able to get married in the next two years. If she wants to find another old man, she can just find him. The two of them can have a companion."
"Hey, come on, if she's eavesdropping every day, she's not looking for an old man. She probably has other ideas!"
"What idea?"
"Hey, hey, what are you thinking?"
…
Li Tiegang's mouth was tightly clenched, not knowing what to say. He turned his gaze and saw Tian Cai at the door. He called her over and asked her a few questions. After thinking for a while, he said to Yuqin's mother, "This matter is not your daughter's fault. She is the victim. How does your family want to deal with it?"
Yuqin's mother said solemnly, "I want Hu Xiaohong, that black-hearted murderer, to pay with her life!"
Murder and abortion are two different things. After all, the child is still a pool of blood, which is different from a living person.
Yuqin's mother also knew that what Hu Xiaohong did was not murder at all. She had almost vented her anger and her mind was much clearer. She weighed the pros and cons of the situation before making this request, knowing that it was impossible to achieve.
"Impossible!" Hu Xiaohong exploded immediately. She knew she was in the wrong in this matter, so she didn't object when Li Tiegang asked the Li family to make demands. Now that she heard that Yuqin's mother wanted to kill someone to pay for his life, how could she sit still?
"Yuqin's mother, this is ultimately your family affair. Besides, your two families are in-laws. Yuqin and Songbai have been married for more than half a year. As the old saying goes, a husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace. The couple has a good relationship. You sent your son-in-law's mother to the police station with just a few words. How are they going to live in the future?"
"Doctor Tian just checked it out. Yuqin will have other children in the future. Even if you don't think about your daughter, you have to think about your grandson. It won't be good for his reputation if he has a grandmother who is in jail, right?" Gao Huijuan also helped to persuade.
"We can't just let it go like this!" Yuqin's mother took a deep breath and spoke calmly, but when asked to say what she wanted, she had no idea, so she cast an inquiring look at Li Jianmin.
Li Jianmin knew that this matter could not be delayed and had to be settled now, otherwise it would be delayed in the future. However, neither he nor his wife were the type to sell their daughter to make money, and they didn't know what they would get for the time being. It would be better to let their daughter make the decision herself.
"I want to split the family."
Suddenly a weak and hoarse voice was heard.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Yuqin standing against the door frame. Her face was pale and her sweaty hair stuck to her temples.
Hu Xiaohong was furious when she heard about the family division. "Impossible! I only have one son, and you, a wicked person, actually want to separate me from him. You want to drive us away from each other. I think you are going to kill me. Oh my God—someone is taking human life lightly. You are going to kill my mother-in-law—"
Zhang Defa frowned but said nothing. Although many people in the village had separated their families, most of them had several sons. If both parents were still alive, they would live on their own. If there was only one left, the son would live with him. It was a bit unreasonable to ask an only son to separate from his mother!
Li Tiegang actually considered it seriously. In his opinion, dividing the family did not mean severing ties. The family would be divided into two families, but they would still live in the same yard. However, Hu Xiaohong would not be able to take care of Li Yuqin's room in the future. This was a good idea.
"Cough, cough, Yuqin, cough, we can't split up the family, cough cough," Wang Songbai had been choking since he was kicked down by the Li family. Now that he had finally caught his breath, he heard the two team leaders starting to consider splitting up the family, and hurried forward to stop them. He knew that it was useless to tell anyone about this, so he had to persuade his wife to agree. He went over with a purple face, pulled her aside and said soft words.
"Yuqin, mother has suffered a lot to help me find a wife. I haven't had any good food or happiness in all these years. Ahem, ahem, as her son, I haven't done my best to be filial. If I really separate from mother now, what will the villagers say about me in the future? Ahem, ahem, our spines will be broken!"
"Just think of this as me begging you, okay? Just think of it as being for my sake and put up with her for a while. If you two ever clash again in the future, I'll definitely stand by you. When the time comes, I'll tell her off, cough, cough, cough. I promise!"
Wang Songbai spoke softly, probably only he and Li Yuqin could hear him clearly. Tian Cai was standing not far from them, and with her good hearing, she heard everything he said.
After listening to this, Tian Cai looked over there again. There was a look of hesitation on Li Yuqin's face. She suddenly felt that this excitement was boring.
Qin Ling happened to be waving at her outside the wall. Tian Cai looked at the group of people in a stalemate in the yard and walked over along the wall.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Ling had no interest in the Wang family's bustle. He had been standing outside the wall since a while ago. "The old lady who gave me acupuncture is here."
Tian Cai then remembered that today was the day when Old Lady Huang was having an acupuncture session. She had been so busy watching the fun that she had forgotten about it. She hurried into the house to pack up her medicine box and came out. Seeing that the discussion over there had not been finished yet, she walked up to the two captains and said something, then walked out with the medicine box on her back.
