"Um...in-law, it's all a misunderstanding...a misunderstanding...!" Despite it being winter, Liu's mother wiped her forehead, which was damp with sweat, for she didn't know where the sweat came from.
Liu Chunxia stood to the side, silently shedding tears, while she still had to deal with the situation at hand.
He addressed Chen's mother, "Mother, my mother and sister-in-law misunderstood. I'll pack their things and take them home right now."
Chen's mother snorted...
Liu Chunxia looked at her mother and whispered, "Mom, quickly tell my sister-in-law and the others to bring the things out!"
Liu's mother was taken aback, but seeing the menacing looks in the eyes of the Chen family members, she immediately nodded.
He led his three daughters-in-law back to his daughter's room.
Then Su Xia and the others heard a commotion: "Mom, why should we give it back?"
"Yeah, I knew I shouldn't have come to help!"
"Bullshit! I told you to take things, not to take the child's clothes off!"
The Chen family members...it seems that Liu's mother still agreed to it.
One of them looked at Chen Jianjun with sympathy, while he glared fiercely at the third son of the Liu family...
Liu Laosan...shrank back, head bowed in fear, regretting in his heart, "I should have known better than to rush here!"
Meanwhile, Liu Chunxia, who was in the room, stared intently at her two sisters-in-law and one sister-in-law, and took something out of her pocket.
"That sister-in-law...you're living such a good life, and your daughter married so well...why not..."
Aunt Liu was holding meat and Wu Ya's clothes. She had already planned to go back and cover her son with them, but she hadn't thought about her daughter at all.
Liu Chunxia snatched it away immediately. Although she wasn't very kind to Wuya at home, she wouldn't dare to bully her daughter outside.
"If you're incompetent, stop coveting other people's things." Liu Chunxia was truly blunt this time.
Not only were her sister-in-law and brother's wife disapproving, but even Liu's mother was somewhat unwilling, saying, "Xiaoxia, what nonsense are you talking about? This is your sister-in-law!"
"Bullshit, sister-in-law! You really are my family? On this joyous occasion, you've disgraced me!" Liu Chunxia roared back.
Liu's mother was momentarily embarrassed, then quickly gave her two daughters-in-law a look, "Second Sister-in-law Liu and Sister-in-law Liu, please take the things out."
Liu Chunxia checked everything one by one, relieved that it had been discovered early, and then looked at her mother.
Seeing the stunned look on Liu's mother's face, she felt a surge of resentment and gritted her teeth as she pulled something out of her bosom.
It's not surprising that it's candy, but what's surprising is how one can hold two pounds of it, which is a full two bags.
Liu's mother threw it at her, roaring, "You brat, I've wasted my time raising you!"
Liu Chunxia smiled bitterly, "Mother, you raised me, but ever since I married Jianjun, it's been the Chen family who has supported me. Have you and Father still received the things I gave you and Father all these years...?"
Upon hearing this, Liu's mother remained silent, but she was clearly still unconvinced.
Liu Chunxia was also tired. She packed a lot of leftover food, even cornbread, for her parents' home to eat, and packed the rest of the food.
There was also the meat that Sister Liu had hidden; she divided it into three portions, one for each of the three sisters-in-law.
Liu's mother gave her an extra packet of brown sugar, a packet of sugar cubes, and a piece of cloth—gray.
Liu's mother, along with her three daughters-in-law, watched Liu Chunxia pack her things. The three daughters-in-law were still heartbroken about the clothes, which were brand new.
Looking at the things her daughter had prepared for her, Liu's mother, who had initially been resentful, now deeply regretted her actions.
Chen Jia didn't wait long before he saw Liu Chunxia come out with her family, and then saw them off directly to the door.
"Mother, you should go back. Also, tell Father that I won't be going back to see him this year for the New Year. The fabric is enough to make a set of clothes for him and you."
After saying that, he closed the door directly, without saying a word to his two sisters-in-law, younger brother, or younger sister-in-law.
The Chen family.....
Watching Liu Chunxia return to her room and slam the door shut, Chen's mother immediately grabbed her third son.
Go check on your wife!
Chen Jianjun nodded, and the heartbroken Wuya Gouwa followed him back.
The second son's family remained: Chen's parents, Su Xia and Chen Jianguo, and the couple, Ga Ya.
As for the children, Ya Ya and Dan Dan were taken home by Niu Niu, while Ge Bao and Er Bao had already run out to play, along with Gou Dan. Wu Ya went to the county town with Si Ya.
I estimate they won't be able to return until the banquet is over.
"Alright, tidy up first, then go back and rest!" Chen's mother said.
Su Xia and Xia Lai started cleaning the kitchen, while the men started cleaning the yard.
"Sister-in-law, do you think Third Sister-in-law will learn her lesson this time?" Xia Laidi suddenly blurted out.
Shocked, Su Xia looked over, her eyes revealing a "You're even worse!"
Xia Laidi didn't dare to glare at Su Xia, but she glared at her daughter, 꺶Ya, several times.
"What kind of look is that? Do you think I'm like your third aunt?"
"Yes, you deliver them all openly and honestly!" (Geeya was speechless.)
Su Xia... she's really gotten bolder; she wouldn't have dared to do that before the wedding!
Xia Laidi wasn't angry at all; instead, she proudly said, "That's right. Hiding it will definitely get you scolded, so it's better to be open and honest!"
"Mom, what did you send this time?" Geya asked irritably.
"Give whatever you want, is that your grandma?"
"Yes, a grandmother who has always been thinking of me!"
"Wasn't that many years ago?"
"Didn't you later keep thinking about Sanya?" Geya asked back.
Xia Laidi touched her nose guiltily, not daring to look at her sister-in-law.
Su Xia chuckled speechlessly; she was no longer shocked by such things.
"Second sister-in-law, don't bring up this kind of thing again. Your child is with your cousin, which is considered consanguineous marriage in medical terms. Most of the children born will be deformed!" Su Xia still wanted to give her a heads-up.
But seeing the blank look on Xia Laidi's face, she rolled her eyes inwardly. This was a blind girl; how could she forget?
"Sister-in-law, what deformity?"
Su Xia was speechless. It was Ge Ya who explained, "They're either missing an arm or a leg, or they're not very bright, or they're born dead..."
Su Xia looked at Ge Ya's calm face and wondered how she could say something about minus 50 degrees Celsius.
As expected, Xia Laidi's face turned pale. She didn't look at Geya, but stared straight at Su Xia.
Su Xia... Second sister-in-law, what's this?
"Sister-in-law, is what Sister-in-law said true?"
Su Xia nodded firmly, "It's true. If you don't believe me, have the second brother take you to the county hospital. The doctors there will tell you!"
The girl next to her whispered, "My mom believes you, not me!"
Su Xia was taken aback, then looked at Xia Laidi who was deep in thought, and realized it was true.
Then he added, "Don't you think about it? Among the cousins in the village who get married, are there any healthy children?"
Xia Laidi was stunned for a moment, then something came to mind, and her face turned as white as the winter snow outside.
Su Xia looked at Ge Ya, who said she didn't care and that being scared was good.
All right....
Later, Su Xia heard from Chen's mother that Xia Lai Di had a strange tantrum in the winter and insisted that her second son take her to the county town.
Then after returning home, she lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) for two days without eating. Wuya also said, "Wuya said that at night, while sleeping, she heard my mother screaming..."
Su Xia stared wide-eyed, and only after Chen Jianjun returned and asked him did she learn the truth.
"Perhaps what you said made the second son's family take it to heart, and they took the second son to the hospital."
"The man over there talked a lot and showed us a lot of photos, which scared my second sister-in-law so much that she sat down on the ground..."
Chen Jianguo concealed the fact that Xia Laidi had wet her pants, something that the second brother had told him and the third brother.
When Su Xia found out, she couldn't help but say, "Consider this a lesson for her. First it was Ya, then San Ya, and now she's trying to get her hands on Wu Ya. How many girls is Wu Ya anyway?"
Chen Jianguo nodded, agreeing that this method was indeed the most effective.
"Wife, it has to be you!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xia gave him a smug look, thinking to herself, "As a student from a later era, with higher education, how could I not handle a blind man?"
