"Dad, we can't live like this anymore. I want to divide the family!" The eldest sister-in-law burst into tears when she saw the old man coming back.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by dividing the family or not? Get in the house." When the eldest son heard his wife say that she wanted to divide the family, he thought that this was a thorn in the old couple's side, so he immediately wanted to drive his wife into the house.
"No, why shouldn't I say it? I've had enough."
"I'm exhausted all day long. What do I want? It's all for this family. But my sister-in-law eats, drinks and wears good clothes all day long. All the good things in the house are given to her, and she keeps crying all day long and doesn't do any work. Why? She deserves to enjoy herself, and I deserve to suffer."
"Sister-in-law, you want to divide the family, why are you talking about me?"
Xu Meili finally stopped hiding in the house. Since her sister-in-law had said so much, how could she not come out?
"You finally came out. If you didn't know, you would have thought you were going to hatch eggs. You hid in the house for a month and didn't come out."
"I can't rely on you for any housework. I have to support you and coax you. I don't want that. I won't serve you anymore!"
When the sister-in-law saw Xu Meili finally come out, she directly expressed her dissatisfaction.
"You... I didn't ask you to support me. I worked and earned work points."
Xu Meili immediately refuted.
Why is she doing nothing? Wasn’t it she who brought back the pig grass before?
"How dare you say that? What can you do with those few work points you earn in a day? Is it enough for you to eat white flour buns, eggs, or wear floral clothes?"
The sister-in-law did the least work in a day but lived the best life, so of course she felt unbalanced.
"You..." Xu Meili was speechless.
"You fart!"
"My daughter's food is not yours. Why are you talking so much? Meili is being taken care of by us old couple. She is not eating your food."
The old lady was unwilling to do so. She was raising her own daughter and wanted her to meddle in the affairs of the old family.
"This family hasn't been divided. Since there's no division, our eldest son's family has a share of the family's belongings. So what my sister-in-law eats is ours. What's the problem with that?"
"Don't tell me she eats her own food. The few centimeters and kilograms of grain she earns throughout the year are all earned by our two families, who toil in the fields and sweat until they shatter into pieces."
The eldest son’s wife didn’t believe what the old lady said. Most of the eggs in the house were eaten by her sister-in-law.
You should also eat some fine grains from time to time.
That's so nice of you.
Her two sons, who are grandsons of the Xu family, do not eat as well as their sister-in-law.
The elder sister-in-law doesn't want to support her younger sister-in-law for nothing and wants to separate from the family.
The couple worked hard and lived a self-sufficient life. There was no problem for their family of four, and they could at least have enough to eat.
Ever since the third son's wife went to take care of him, the old lady and sister-in-law have had gloomy faces since they came back, as if someone owed them money.
The food at home also plummeted.
I finally made an egg, but only my sister-in-law could eat it; no one else was allowed to touch it.
My sister-in-law's anger is growing stronger and stronger.
"You...what are you talking about? That's someone else? That's my younger sister. How can you, as her sister-in-law, be so mean!" Seeing that his parents looked unhappy, the eldest son hurried out to scold his wife.
"I'm mean, Xu Yong, check your conscience, who is the mean one in this family?"
"Ever since I married into your Xu family, I've gotten up earlier than a chicken and worked harder than an ox. But in the end, nothing good ever happened to me. I even had trouble eating an egg."
"Every good thing in the family is left to my sister-in-law. I've never seen anything like this in your family. I don't care. I want to divide the family. If I don't divide the family, I'll divorce you. You can live with whoever you want!"
The sister-in-law was furious.
The two children were playing in the yard, but when they saw their mother arguing with their grandmother and aunt, they huddled in a corner.
Now, when they heard Mom say she wanted to divorce Dad and didn't want them anymore, they all rushed over and hugged the eldest sister-in-law's thighs, "Mom, don't go, wuwu..."
"Mother……"
"My children, it's all because of your bad luck that you were not born into a family that is good to your grandchildren. There's nothing you can do about it." The eldest sister-in-law hugged her two children and cried together.
"You... are so capable now, right? You even dare to file for divorce. I... I..." The eldest brother didn't expect his wife to make such a big fuss.
Looking at his wife and children crying, he didn't know what to do and squatted there helplessly.
It’s usually just talk, just to gain some benefits.
But this time the daughter-in-law is not like that, she is serious.
"Alright, stop arguing. We can't divide the family property right now. The third child isn't home. We'll wait until later..."
The old man's face looked very ugly. The conflicts in this family were getting more and more serious. It would be great when the problem between Meili and Lao Si was resolved.
So we have to delay it as much as possible now.
Wait until Meili gets married and the fourth brother starts a family. Then it won’t matter if we divide the family.
"No, Dad. Since the eldest sister-in-law wants to split the family, then let's do it. Although the third brother is not here, I, as his wife, can represent him. My opinion is his opinion. We are husband and wife."
Before the old man finished speaking, Jiang Yuzhu stood up.
"Jiang Yuzhu, you...you're back." The old lady frowned when she saw the third daughter-in-law coming back.
She also got involved, and the busier she was, the more trouble she made.
"Yes, I came back this time because I have good news to tell you. I didn't want to be so anxious, but my sister-in-law has proposed to separate the family, so I'll take this opportunity to say a few words."
"I'm going to join the army. This time I came back, I just packed up my things at home and then went to the army to find Xu Lei."
"That's perfect. I also think my sister-in-law's suggestion is a good one. Why don't we take this opportunity to officially separate the family? Anyway, the third brother and I won't give the family ten yuan in the future. After all, I don't live here anymore, so there's really no need for it, right?"
"My parents are not yet at the stage where they can't work or support themselves, nor are they at the stage where they are paralyzed on the kang and need someone to take care of them, so we won't pay this money. We can all discuss and come up with a plan for their retirement, and we'll follow it in the future."
Jiang Yuzhu didn't expect that someone would hand her a pillow just as she was dozing off.
Just as her sister-in-law was making a fuss about dividing the family property, she took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
