Chu Jie glanced at his wife who was left alone, then looked back at his mother who was full of anger, and frowned, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Ren's wife snorted angrily and glanced coldly at Chu Jie's wife who was standing in the main hall. "What's wrong? Ask your good wife and see what she said to make our family proud!"
Chu Ren, who had been silent the whole time, was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at his wife, "What's wrong? What's wrong with the third brother's wife? What happened?"
Chu Ren's wife recounted the story coldly. Chu Ren was so angry that he grabbed the porcelain bowl on the table and threw it at Wang Meihua's feet.
"Asshole!"
Wang Meihua was so scared that she took two steps back, looked at Chu Jie with a pale face, and cried out hesitantly.
"Ai, Aizhu's father..."
She had known since she was a child that she had a good-looking face, so she thought that if she acted a little softly, Chu Jie would feel sorry for her.
However, at this moment, Chu Jie's face did not show the kind of distressed expression she thought. Instead, he stared at her coldly, which made her feel cold all over. Chu Jie was angry. She seemed to have done something wrong...
Chu Jie's cold voice came, "Wang Meihua, I think I warned you last time, telling you not to think about things you shouldn't think about. Otherwise, if you do it again, you will go back home!"
Wang Meihua's face turned pale. "Aizhu's father, I, I was wrong..."
Chu Ren frowned, "Chu Jie, what else?"
Wang Meihua quickly ran to Chu Jie, grabbed his arm and begged, "Aizhu's father, please don't say that. I, I was really wrong. I was just too jealous. I, I won't dare to do it again. I promise."
Chu Jie just glanced at her indifferently, ignored her pleas, shook off her arm and walked to the wall to lean against it, and told Chu Ren and others about her secretly borrowing money from Chu Tian in his name.
"What? How dare she? What will this make Xiao Shi think of our family? What will this make your grandmother think?"
Chu Ren was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and his hands clenched and unclenched his fists back and forth. Finally, he endured it again and again, and when he couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped the table, stood up, and walked towards Chu Jie who was standing against the wall. He stared at him for a long time before speaking.
"Your wife, you teach her yourself!"
Then he shouted to his two sons who were standing there in a daze, "Old one, youngest one, come with me to work!"
At this time, the only people left in the main hall were Chu Jie, Chu Ren's wife, and the frightened Wang Meihua.
Chu Ren's wife stared at Wang Meihua in disbelief for a long time. After a while, she finally spoke, "Wang Meihua, how dare you?"
"We came to Xinjiang to live a better life in the future, not for..."
Wang Meihua shuddered, tears streaming down her face. "Mom, I, I also want our family to live a better life..."
Chu Ren's wife roared, "Do you have any shame? You don't want us to live well. You just want yourself to live well!"
"Come to think of it, you usually eat quite a few of the walnuts that Xiao Shi sends you. Where did all that go?"
The more she talked, the angrier Chu Ren's wife became. She walked over to Wang Meihua, tapped her shoulder vigorously with her finger, and shouted, "Besides, look for yourself, since we came to Xinjiang, haven't we lived much better than back home? Why are you still not satisfied?"
"I·····"
Wang Meihua trembled, lowered her head and wiped away her tears, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Every time Chu Ren's wife saw Wang Meihua crying, she became extremely annoyed and angrily scolded her, "Cry, cry, cry, what are you crying for? Are you mourning?"
After she finished scolding him, she didn't forget to look at Chu Jie and scold him, shouting in frustration, "I told you countless times before, marry a virtuous wife, looks are not particularly important. I told you not to marry, don't marry, but you were so stubborn! Look, this is the good wife you married!"
Chu Jie leaned against the wall with his head down, his face showing an gloomy expression. After a while, he slowly raised his head, looked at Wang Meihua, and spoke in a flat tone.
"I'll go get your household registration done tomorrow, and then I'll buy you a train ticket so you can go back to your parents' home!"
Chu Ren's wife was stunned when she heard this, while Wang Meihua fell to the ground in shock. She hurriedly crawled to Chu Jie's side, hugged his legs and kept begging, "No, no, Aizhu's father, you can't drive me away..."
"I can't live like this if I go back. My dad will beat me to death..."
Chu Jie looked down at her indifferently, "If you don't want to go back to your parents' home, then go back to the Victory Brigade. I will write a letter to the captain and ask him to take you in and give you a house, and you can live there."
Wang Meihua wailed, "No, no, I won't go back. Aizhu's father, please forgive me. I won't dare to do that again..."
"Wow, I won't dare to do it again..."
Because her crying was so loud, Chu Tian's family who lived in the left yard next door and Chu Yi's family who lived in the right yard also heard the noise.
Yao Xiujuan touched her three-month-old belly and listened to the noise next door. She couldn't help but feel sympathetic, "Brother Tian, you..."
Before she could finish her words, Chu Tian interrupted her, "Don't think about pleading for her, this matter has nothing to do with us. When she was talking nonsense without thinking, she should have thought about the consequences!"
Yao Xiujuan smiled. "I'm not trying to plead for her. I just think Brother Jie is a good person. Why did he choose Sister Meihua as his wife?"
Chu Tian thought about Wang Meihua's appearance and couldn't help laughing. "Maybe he was misled by her beauty?"
Yao Xiujuan, “…”
Chu Yi and his wife were also talking about Chu Jie's wife. "Is this true? How could she be so stupid?"
Chu Yi's wife also sighed, "Why would I lie to you? My sister-in-law's face fell at that time. If Xiao Shi's wife hadn't been there, I guess my sister-in-law would have lost her temper on the spot."
Chu Yi lit his pipe and started smoking. After a while, he sighed, "I hope the young couple don't think that we are ungrateful..."
Chu Yi's wife smiled when she heard this, "Don't worry, the young couple are both good people and won't take their anger out on us just because of one person."
After a pause, she stood up. Under Chu Yi's puzzled gaze, Chu Yi's wife patted her head and said, "Oh, I forgot."
"What did you forget?"
"Didn't Xiujuan give me two sugar coupons? I told my kids to send her some freshly ripe tomatoes."
"Aiju, take your sisters to the vegetable garden and pick some ripe tomatoes. Pick the good ones!"
"By the way, if you see any cucumbers that are ready to eat, pick a few..."
Chu Yi looked at his wife who ran out in a hurry, speechless for a while. Then, listening to the insults from his sister-in-law in the next yard, he felt particularly fortunate. Although his sons were not as smart and capable as Chu Jie, his sons were all obedient, and the wives they married were all chosen by him and his wife.
