Chapter 100 No comparison, no harm
Wen Kexin could tell that her mother-in-law was very smart and not only felt bad that her second daughter had lost all the money she had saved, but she also saw clearly the future of her eldest daughter.
She decisively took out five big unity notes and said, "Mom, I wanted to lend this money to my second sister, but I was afraid she couldn't keep it. Please keep it and use it wisely."
Feng Shulan said with emotion: "I can't accept this money!"
"Mom, we are a family. If Song Mo were at home, he would do the same. Just accept it."
Feng Shulan was touched. Her second daughter earned more than 50 yuan by following her daughter-in-law in collecting herbs. This money was earned by her daughter-in-law's hard work, not given by her son.
With tears in her eyes, she said, "Second sister, keep this money with me first. If you don't have enough money to build a house, you can use it. If you spend it, ask your second sister and others to pay you back as soon as possible."
"Mom, I don't have any use for this money for now. My second sister and her friends are in need of money right now, so there's no need to rush to pay it back."
Feng Shulan thought about what her eldest daughter had done, and then looked at her daughter-in-law's sincere behavior, and was suddenly filled with emotion.
There is a world of difference between an eldest daughter and a daughter-in-law!
Time passes quietly in the busyness.
The next morning when work started, all the members of the brigade gathered at the brigade headquarters waiting for their work to be assigned.
The team leader cleared his throat and said loudly to everyone, "Before assigning the work, there is one thing that needs to be resolved. That is Zhang Guihua spread rumors and caused trouble. Not only did it cause reputational damage to Comrade Wen Kexin, but her mother-in-law Feng Shulan also suffered physical damage. It is decided that Zhang Guihua will pay 20 yuan in medical expenses and nutrition expenses, which will be deducted from the work points, and she must also apologize to Wen Kexin and her family."
Applause broke out. Most people had a scale in their hearts. Zhang Guihua had been lazy and slacking off for a long time, and she deserved the punishment for making it up.
Yesterday morning, everyone thought that the captain would be able to hold a meeting in the evening, but there was no movement until the evening.
Many people at home were discussing, "Could it be that Zhang Guihua asked someone to intercede for her, so that a big matter could be reduced to a small one, or a small matter could be eliminated?"
Some people were still muttering in their hearts: Could it be that Zhang Guihua was not spreading rumors, and Wen Daya really did something shameful? Otherwise, why has there been no response to the apology that the captain had promised?
After Zhang Guihua got over the nervousness, she thought that things would just pass easily.
Not only did I sleep well last night, but I also wanted to stay at home and not come out this morning.
If the head of the household hadn't gotten angry and pulled her up, she would still be lazing on the kang at home.
This morning, she didn't even make breakfast, and the whole family was hungry.
After hearing the captain's words, Zhang Guihua immediately realized that she was happy too early.
It felt like everyone's eyes were on me.
It was as if the clothes on her body were being stripped off layer by layer by everyone's eyes, and she suddenly felt her face burning.
Wen Jianguo didn't know what happened yesterday. When he heard the captain's words, he suddenly felt dizzy.
There are four people in the family now. Not only is this lazy woman always lazy, but the house is also dirty everywhere. She likes to gossip with other women when she has nothing to do.
Twenty yuan was deducted for making trouble out of nothing.
That's more than half a year's work points gone. This lazy woman is really a troublemaker!
Feeling everyone's gazes on him, he wished he could divorce the lazy woman immediately. It was so embarrassing.
Zhang Guihua was seen lowering her head like a puppet and saying a few words of apology on the stage.
Wen Jianguo was holding his breath and feeling angry.
He stared at the woman as she walked back.
He rushed over quickly and slapped him with his palm like a palm-leaf fan.
“Pah…”
The distraught Zhang Guihua was suddenly attacked and fell to the ground in a mess.
"Bang bang..."
Wen Jianguo raised his fist and punched a few more times, shouting, "Lazy woman, you are embarrassing me, I want to divorce you..."
After being married to the Wen family for so many years, Zhang Guihua has always been very proud in front of her husband.
Just because she was pregnant, she gave birth to three sons.
In this day and age, having a son is looked up to by others and gives you confidence in your husband’s family.
Not only did Wang Qiaolian have no support from her natal family, but she didn't get pregnant until more than a year after she got married, and she gave birth to a girl.
What made Zhang Guihua even happier was that her sister-in-law gave birth to three daughters in succession.
The old lady of the Wen family favors boys over girls, so for the sake of her grandchildren, she asked Zhang Guihua to stay at home and take good care of the children.
As for Wang Qiaolian, who gave birth to three girls, she did not receive such treatment.
She thought that after the second wife separated, she would be free and easy, but the result made her cry without tears.
All the household chores were pushed onto her shoulders, and she spun like a top every day.
Finally, the two huge mountains that were pressing on her, her sister-in-law and mother-in-law, left, and she could finally take a breath and let herself go.
This matter hit a wall.
What made Zhang Guihua even more upset was that the man who had never raised a finger against her not only beat her, but also wanted to divorce her.
She suddenly felt black in front of her eyes and passed out.
Wen Jianguo never dreamed that the lazy woman could not withstand the beating and actually fainted.
He just wanted to vent his anger, and he also wanted to show off his power in front of everyone.
Let everyone see that he is the head of the family.
The result was counterproductive.
He turned a deaf ear to everyone's discussions and the captain's assignments, and struggled to carry the woman up.
He wanted to send this woman back to her parents' home. The Wen family could not tolerate such a lazy person who ate everything without leaving any residue and was incompetent at anything.
As the saying goes: There is no harm without comparison.
Compared with her capable second brother and sister-in-law, Zhang Guihua is nothing!
Wen Kexin watched the big show with everyone, gratefully took the twenty yuan handed over by the team leader, and walked towards the Song family with a proud look on her face.
"Mom, this twenty yuan is for you to compensate for the cost of medicine and nutrition. Ask my second sister to buy you whatever you want to eat... When I'm not at home, you must take care of yourself."
Feng Shulan looked at Wen Kexin, feeling reluctant to leave, "Child, when will you come back?"
"I'll try to come back as soon as possible, probably about half a month."
"Be careful on the road and don't mind your own business."
"Mom, I know!"
When she arrived at her parents' home, her parents started nagging her again.
Amid everyone's worried nagging, Wen Kexin sat on the ox cart to the town, surrounded by several large bags that were filled with heavy things.
Among them were things that the mother-in-law made for Song Mo; there was chili meat sauce cooked by his mother, boiled tea eggs, a lunch box of pork and scallion dumplings, and a few sets of clothes for changing.
When she arrived in town, she rushed to the bus stop carrying a bunch of things. Seeing that there was no one around, she walked into an empty alley and put all the bags into the space.
He was only carrying a hand-sewn backpack containing some food for the ride.
Leave the alley and continue towards the bus stop.
When I got to the train station, I saw that the train would leave in an hour.
Her nervous heart suddenly calmed down, and she went to the nearby post office, and it took her a long time to make the call.
There was soon a noisy sound from inside, and the other party's voice was very low.
Wen Kexin shouted loudly: "Comrade, I'm looking for Song Mo!"
These days, Song Mo stayed in the office when he had nothing to do, hoping that his young wife would call him.
The call did not come yet, and disappointment lingered in his heart, making him feel anxious.
Did something happen to the young wife?
Or is there something going on at home?
Or maybe this girl doesn't want to come visit? Countless thoughts emerged in his mind, making him feel heavier and heavier, and his face darker and darker.
The soldiers under his command wailed every day: Could it be that the battalion commander had his period these days? Why do we have to practice two extra hours every day? Is this a way to kill people?
Suddenly he heard the phone ringing and he rushed to pick it up again. Although the voice on the other end was low, he heard a familiar voice.
He shouted in great surprise: "Wife! It's me."
