"No, men and women are separated."
As soon as Li Kui finished speaking, Mrs. Tian became even more paralyzed and sat there unable to get up.
"Village chief, village chief, you have to take care of this matter." In panic, Old Mrs. Tian looked at the village chief and finally found her backbone.
The village chief coughed and said, "I told you to stop making trouble, but you insisted on making trouble. Now it has come to this. Who do you blame? Didn't the comrades say that if you want to get out, you can just pay the money."
Old Mrs. Tian cursed the village chief in her heart, but she didn't dare show it on her face. Now the village chief was her only hope of leaving here, and she couldn't really stay here.
"Village head, we've been fellow villagers our whole lives. Don't you know what my family's situation is? Where can I get the money? The comrades said we can reconcile. You can talk to Wang Xiaohong. It's just a matter of a word from her."
"What have you done to the beatings you've suffered? I think it's pretty good for you to be here. You and your son are idle and will starve if you go out. It's better for you to stay here. At least you can have enough food and drink, and you won't be exposed to the wind or rain." The village chief said bluntly.
Mrs. Tian had no choice but to give in. "Okay, I know I was wrong, Village Chief. We are from the same village after all. You can't just stand by and watch us suffer like this, right? I came here to find my son. I haven't eaten for two days. How can I not be angry when I see them like that?"
Old Mrs. Tian started to complain with tears and snot.
His voice was loud and clear, and he didn't sound scared at all.
Tian Chengcheng then said, "Grandpa Village Head, why don't you have Grandma Tian apologize to Aunt Wang and promise not to bother them again? Then the matter can be reconciled. Grandma Tian is right. We're from the same village, so we can't make things too ugly."
The village chief knew that Tian Chengcheng was giving him a way out, so he immediately went down.
"Fubao is a good child. Since Fubao has asked for mercy, Wang Feng's mother, why don't you, for the sake of our relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, let her apologize to you and express her stance, and then this matter will be over? Don't worry, she has expressed her stance and will not bother you anymore. If she dares to bother you again in the future, the comrades have a record and can let her in again at any time."
At this time, the village chief mainly uses education and intimidation as a supplement.
People like Old Lady Tian are too shameless and take advantage of their age to bully others. She won't give up unless you use some tough tactics on her.
Wang Xiaohong hesitated for a moment and said, "Since the village chief and Fubao have both spoken, I will listen to you on this matter."
Li Kui immediately lectured the old lady, asked her to apologize and make a promise, and even put her fingerprints on the letter of guarantee. Old Mrs. Tian looked at the bright red fingerprints and knew that she could no longer make a fuss, and she was very angry.
Her problem was solved, but her son was still here. She mustered up the courage to ask, "Comrade, where is my son? He hasn't been home for a few days. You have to give us an explanation."
"It's the same situation as yours." Li Kui said.
Old Mrs. Tian knew that the matter was stuck with Wang Xiaohong. Thinking that she had already bowed her head once, it didn't matter. She immediately said, "Yin Di's mother, can you really bear to let the children's father stay in prison? The eldest and second child are already of marriageable age. If the news gets out that they have a father in prison, it will not be good for their reputation. This is a family matter, so don't make it so ugly."
Wang Xiaohong didn't want to have anything to do with the Tian mother and son, but she didn't think about getting anyone involved either.
"It's not impossible for me to let go. I don't even want the compensation, but Tian Jingzhi, like you, has to give me a promise that he will never bother the four of us again. I'll just pretend that what happened before never happened." Wang Xiaohong thought the old lady wouldn't give up easily, so she said, "Anyway, I'm out now. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. If you dare to come and make trouble once, I won't be afraid to come in with you once."
Old Mrs. Tian looked at Wang Xiaohong and finally realized the changes in Wang Xiaohong.
She is no longer the daughter-in-law that she can easily control!
"Okay, as long as you let Jingzhi out, I'll tell Jingzhi I promise not to hit you again. After all, we've been married for almost twenty years, so if you have anything to say in the future, we can talk it out nicely."
Old Mrs. Tian was trying to persuade her, but she had her own plans in mind.
Wang Xiaohong can make money now, but we can't let her go easily. If she were still our daughter-in-law, the money would not be ours.
Get my son out first, and we’ll take our time with the rest.
Tian Chengcheng stood aside and saw the calculation in Old Lady Tian's eyes, and was really angry.
How can there be such a shameless person?
What a scoundrel!
"Grandma Tian, you've known the couple for almost twenty years now. Why didn't you treat Aunt Wang and the others well all those years? You even kicked them out overnight. If they hadn't met us, they might all have died. Four lives were lost, and you didn't think about the consequences when you did that?
We've already gotten through the hardest times, so stop saying so much useless stuff now. You and your son will have nothing to do with Aunt Wang and the others from now on, so don't even think about getting a penny from them!"
As soon as Tian Chengcheng finished speaking, Wang Xiaohong immediately echoed, "What Fubao said is exactly what I wanted to say. In short, I have nothing to do with your Tian family anymore. It has nothing to do with me if your son remarries in the future. Just don't bother the four of us mothers."
"Xiaohong, you have called me mom for twenty years, why are you so heartless?" Old Mrs. Tian sighed, looking aggrieved.
Tian Chengcheng almost laughed.
This is—
You are such a good actor, don’t you feel uncomfortable?
"There's no point in saying too much. I'll make sure. If you can agree, I'll agree to a settlement and let you and Tian Jingzhi go back to Wangshan Village. If you don't agree, let him stay in there and come out in a few years. Who knows what will happen in the future?" Wang Xiaohong said.
She has completely seen through Mrs. Tian's tricks. You can't show any weakness, otherwise she will become more and more aggressive.
"Okay." Seeing her firm attitude, Mrs. Tian had no choice but to agree and get her son out first.
After being detained for a few days, Tian Jingzhi had become completely obedient. When he heard the apology and the promise that he could leave, he immediately did as he was told. After signing, he and the group left.
Li Kui and Wang Yongjian looked at the people leaving and sighed.
"These days, there are all kinds of people! It's so satisfying!" said Li Kui.
We are now in a period of cultural transition, and many mothers-in-law still follow the traditions of the older generation. They think that the mother-in-law is the boss and her word is final. They also expect their daughters-in-law to work like slaves for their families. They are completely unable to keep up with the progress of the times.
Alas, this kind of thing is by no means an isolated case.
"The old lady in the Tian family is so fierce. Aunt Wang has lived under that old lady's control for twenty years and she doesn't know how badly she has been bullied. She is so pitiful." Wang Yongjian is a person of the new era. He was assigned here right after graduation. His parents are workers and he is an only child. He never thought that there would be people living such a miserable life.
