That look seemed to be able to see through everything, and it made Shen Mancheng's old face turn red.
The indescribable embarrassment made him glare at his son angrily and said, "Go and clean up the things in the room!"
"Oh, OK!"
Shen Qingsong was also embarrassed and ashamed by his sister-in-law's expression.
No matter what the reason was, as an uncle, he took advantage of his younger brother's absence to bully his younger brother's wife and nephews and nieces...
It would be fine if he didn't think about it, but when he really thought about it, he just wished he could dig a hole in the ground so he could crawl into it.
He didn't care how his wife would cry and make a fuss later, and he gritted his teeth and pried Liu Chunxia's hands apart and went into the house.
Liu Chunxia never expected that Yin Xiaoman would do this!
What was even more unexpected was that this woman just stood there and no one in the family took her seriously.
This feeling of having her territorial rights disregarded made Liu Chunxia more angry than if the house she had occupied was returned to her!
She immediately followed him in like crazy, grabbed Shen Qingsong's clothes and started fighting with him!
"You dare to take some of the stuff out for me to try!"
She was so angry that she was panting heavily: "Just because of what that woman said, you want to give my son's house back? Shen Qingsong, why are you so cowardly?!"
"Stop it!" Shen Qingsong pushed her impatiently.
No matter how good-tempered he is, he is still a man.
He would also feel embarrassed if his wife went against him in front of so many people.
Liu Chunxia didn't expect the man to resist, and was caught off guard and pushed back several steps by him.
This stirred up a hornet's nest, and she immediately started to cry: "Shen Qingsong, you are useless, what else can you do except bully me? Who am I working so hard to do this? You just want a little..."
Before she could finish her words, Shen Qingsong covered her mouth with his backhand and forced her to stop.
"Hold it, or I'll beat you to death!"
He was obviously anxious, and he scolded in a low voice, dragged Liu Chunxia and walked out the door.
The woman grabbed his hands and arms until they were torn to pieces, but he didn't dare to let go.
The two girls were scared by the noise and when they saw them leave, they subconsciously stepped back a long way.
But Yin Xiaoman still remained calm and composed.
But when the two of them started fighting in the yard again, she took two quick steps to her mother-in-law and led the two children over.
She pulled Dabao towards her, bent down and picked up Erniu, and pressed her little head down, letting her lie on her shoulder and not look at the noise over there.
Shen Qingsong finally pulled Liu Chunxia back to the east room where they lived. He watched in a daze as their two sons reacted and quickly followed in.
At this time, the only people left in the yard were Chen Mancheng and his wife, two educated youths, and their mother.
Zhang Jinfeng was so frightened that her lips turned pale, and her upper and lower teeth kept colliding with each other, making a clattering sound.
She subconsciously moved closer to her man, obviously panicking.
Even through the door, the noise coming from the east room could still be heard clearly, mixed with the crying of two children.
Erniu buried her head deeply in Yin Xiaoman's shoulder, and wrapped her arms tightly around her neck, showing a dependence she had never shown before.
Dabao didn't say anything.
He pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were gloomy, and there was no expression on his face. It was unknown whether he was thinking about something or was just scared.
Until Yin Xiaoman freed up one hand, held his cold little hand, and protected it in the palm of his hand.
He moved closer to her as if awakened from a dream.
Chen Mancheng only felt his temples throbbing wildly, and his heart was in a mess as if a ball of straw was stuffed into it.
He subconsciously glanced at his second daughter-in-law and felt that the girl seemed different after not seeing her for a few days.
But he couldn't tell what the difference was.
The look she gave him just now still made Shen Mancheng feel frightened when he thought about it now.
He felt that he had lived for sixty years and had never been as timid as he was just now, not to mention facing the village cadres, even when facing the old patriarch.
This feeling made him feel uncomfortable, but it also made him more cautious about his second daughter-in-law.
The fight in the east room seemed like it wouldn't stop any time soon. Chen Mancheng rubbed his temples and walked up to Yin Xiaoman with gritted teeth.
"Wife Qingyun, Dad wants to discuss something with you, is that okay?"
He tried to lift the corners of his mouth, trying to force a smile. But it was obvious that he had failed. The expression on his face was a little distorted, and he looked as awkward as possible.
"Dad, you say." Yin Xiaoman did not agree, but just looked at him and said lightly.
Shen Mancheng looked uncomfortable for a moment, but he didn't care.
He thought about it and slowly spoke: "Qingyun's wife, you know your sister-in-law's temper. She is just a troublemaker. There is no point in arguing with such a person. It's not enough to be angry.
Just consider this as a favor to your father and give this house to Dazhuang and Erzhuang temporarily to live in. When you need the house, I promise to help you get it back! ”
"But I need it now?" Yin Xiaoman looked at him with a smile, as if she thought what he said was very strange.
She pointed at Liang Xiaoyu and the others and said, "Liang Zhiqing and the others are still waiting to move. Dad, let's not wait until later. Please help pack up the things in this room now."
This sentence was so heavy that it felt like something was choking my heart. .
Seeing that he was silent, Yin Xiaoman sighed helplessly and said to Liang Xiaoyu and the others apologetically: "I'm sorry, I made you two laugh.
There's nothing I can do about this.
Otherwise, why don’t we talk to the branch secretary? Can’t we ask the village to send a few people to help my sister-in-law and her family move?
The presence of outsiders can serve as a witness to some extent. Don't let her say that something is missing and we won't be able to explain it. ”
Her words instantly aroused the anger of the two girls.
They nodded decisively: "Okay, Sister Xiaoman, you are taking care of the child, so don't run around. Let's go together! We will go to the village office now and find the cadres to judge the case."
As he spoke he was heading towards the door.
Chen Mancheng suddenly became anxious!
To be honest, he didn't want these two girls to move in.
He saw what happened just now. These people are not easy to deal with.
If they really move in, with my eldest daughter-in-law's temper, there will be more trouble in the future.
There will never be peace in their home again.
He was so angry that he didn't care to say it in front of others.
He stared at Yin Xiaoman and shouted, "Qingyun's wife, can't you give me some face? Can you just treat it as my father begging you? Stop making trouble, stop making trouble!"
At the end of his words, his voice was filled with deep fatigue.
But his appearance completely angered Yin Xiaoman!
She seemed to suddenly empathize with the original owner's helplessness and unspeakable grievances.
So, who is weaker now and who is right?
Just by showing weakness can you unscrupulously snatch other people’s things? !
Her eyes suddenly turned red, and then tears fell down in big drops.
She didn't wipe it off, but just opened her eyes wide and looked straight at Shen Mancheng and Zhang Jinfeng, with a look of great grievance.
"Dad, I beg you, please leave a way for the three of us to survive!"
As she said this, she made a gesture as if she was about to kneel down, but was stopped by the two girls next to her.
"Sister Xiaoman, what are you doing? This is a new society, kneeling is not allowed! If you have any grievances, please speak up. The people have sharp eyes and will help you!"
The two little girls felt their hearts broken as they watched her tears falling like crazy, her whole body trembling, and her appearance looking so pitiful and delicate.
They supported Yin Xiaoman's body with all their strength, and at the same time, their eyes were like knives, shooting angrily at Chen Mancheng!
Chen Mancheng was so frightened by the look that he couldn't even stand still. He said hurriedly, "Qingyun's wife, you can't say anything about life or death! If you have been wronged, tell Dad. Your mother and I will definitely take care of it for you!"
Zhang Jinfeng next to her also nodded repeatedly with concern.
He wanted to reach out and touch her, but Yin Xiaoman inadvertently moved to the side and avoided him.
She sniffed, pursed her lips tightly, and looked embarrassed.
After a while, as if he had made a great decision, he whispered: "Dad, Mom, we are out of food. We have only had one meal these past few days. It doesn't matter if I'm hungry. I promised Qingyun that I would take good care of these two children. I can't let them starve to death!"
After hearing her words, Shen Mancheng's face suddenly turned red.
He waved to his wife repeatedly: "Go! Go scoop some noodles from the jar and fill a bag for the baby!"
Zhang Jinfeng agreed and was about to leave.
But Yin Xiaoman continued, "Dad, there is still a long way to go. You gave me noodles today, but what about tomorrow? What about next month? We have three mouths to feed. How much food can you two old people have to feed us?"
Shen Mancheng instantly remembered what happened in the morning, and his hand froze in mid-air.
Liang Xiaoyu and Li Fang looked at each other, then looked at Yin Xiaoman in confusion: "Sister Xiaoman, doesn't the brigade give you rations?"
Yin Xiaoman looked at her father-in-law and explained to them, "I am in high school in the city, and my household registration has not been moved back to the school, so there is no food for me in the village now."
"Both of them," she patted Erniu on the back, "their household registration is with their father in the army, not in the village, so they don't have rations."
The two little girls immediately nodded in understanding.
At that time, urban household registration was very valuable and allowed one to eat food supplied by the state.
So if a family has a child going to school in the city, even if they move out with great difficulty, their household registration will never be moved back to the village.
It just so happens that Yin Xiaoman’s situation is particularly embarrassing.
She is in her senior year of high school this year and has half a semester left before graduation, but her household registration is still with the school.
But the school is suspended now and the students have all returned to their hometowns, so the school won’t provide any food rations, and she won’t get any share of the food distributed by the village.
In an average family, if this happens, the family members will usually tighten their belts and give each child a bite of food.
Anyway, just endure these six months and you can find a good job in the city after getting your diploma.
At least I will be a city dweller in the future.
But looking at the current situation, the Shen family obviously has no intention of helping Yin Xiaoman.
"I just went to the village office to borrow grain, but the village stipulates that if you want to borrow grain, you must either use work points to pay for it or exchange it for money. When I got married, I brought 50 yuan with me, but my sister-in-law took it all away. When the family was divided, I left with nothing.
We had no food and no money, so we had to discuss with Liang Zhiqing and others about helping each other. I lent them my house and they gave me five dollars a month to exchange for food.
Dad, now you don’t even give me the house. Do you want to kill the three of us completely? ”
When he said the last sentence, Yin Xiaoman's face was full of tears, his eyes were full of despair, and even his voice became much higher, with a bit of mournful sound.
After hearing what their mother said, Dabao and Erniu burst into tears at the same time.
That scene made the hair on your body stand on end!
