After listening to Uncle Chu's words, is there anything else that Old Mrs. Chu doesn't understand?
He glared at Wang Meihua and gnashed his teeth, "Wang Meihua, you've really gone too far! How dare you interfere with our Chu family's children's schooling?"
Wang Meihua opened her mouth and explained feebly, "He, he, he's only in the first grade anyway. I want him to stay home to look after his younger siblings. Anyway, there are also children in the team who are in the first grade when they are ten years old..."
Old Madam Chu sneered, "Yes, he's looking at my sister-in-law. You're so lazy, aren't you? Look at the fields. Which wife doesn't work in the fields with her children? How come they can do it, but you can't? Are you more precious than others?"
Wang Meihua's eyes wandered, and her voice became smaller and smaller. "Aizhu's father is already a formal employee. I, I am..."
Old Madam Chu glanced at her with disdain. "Xiao Jie is a regular employee now. What does that have to do with you? My Xiao Shi is also a regular employee. Xiujuan didn't say she didn't work or take care of the child!"
"Why? Are you more precious than our Xiujuan? She can read and write and has been to school. How can you compare to her?"
"They are like an ox that doesn't know its horns are curved, and a horse that doesn't know its face is long. They have no self-awareness at all and only do shameless things!"
Old Madam Chu didn't want to continue talking to this kind of person. She turned to look at Chu Aizhu and Chu Xinde, who had already picked up their schoolbags, and waved her hand, saying, "Let's go, go with Grandma."
Chu Aizhu looked at her mother who was slumped on the ground, reached out to grab the corner of Mrs. Chu's clothes, and opened her mouth, "But, my mother..."
Old Madam Chu tilted her head and looked at Chu Aizhu disapprovingly, "Your grandparents have something to say to your mother. You are all children, and these are not things you should worry about!"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Chu's wife hurriedly said, "Yes, Xinde, Aizhu, hurry up and go with your great-grandmother."
Wang Meihua grabbed Mrs. Chu's trouser leg with a look of horror, "Grandma, please, please don't leave. I was really wrong..."
Old Mrs. Chu pulled her trouser legs out of her hands in annoyance, her eyes cold and her tone indifferent, "Xiao Jie has given you two chances. Whether you can pass this time depends on Xiao Jie's intention."
Wang Meihua's face turned pale, and her lips trembled. "Grandma, you, you know too?"
Old Madam Chu said disdainfully, "As for your blatant little actions, we are not fools. Do you know what is strange?"
Uncle Chu was stunned. "Mom, when did you know?"
Old Madam Chu glanced at Wang Meihua coldly. "Does it matter when I learned this? What's important now is that you all live under the same roof, and you didn't even notice that she was abusing several children? How can you, as parents-in-law and grandparents, be so responsible? Shouldn't you reflect on yourself?"
After saying this, he pulled the two children who didn't want to leave, turned around and walked out of the house.
Yao Xiujuan had been waiting for Old Mrs. Chu at the door. She was surprised to see her come back with the eldest and second sons of Chu Jie's family.
"Grandma, why are Aizhu and Xinde here too?"
Old Madam Chu glanced at the two dejected children, then looked up at Yao Xiujuan, "Don't ask so many questions. Aizhu will sleep with Xinxin tonight, and Xinde will sleep with me like Pingping."
Yao Xiujuan nodded, "Oh, okay, then I'll go get two more quilts."
The next day, when it was still dark, Uncle Chu asked Chu Xing to borrow Chu Tian's bicycle and drove towards the coal mine not far from the regiment. Before dawn, Chu Xing and Chu Jie hurried back. Not long after, Wang Meihua's wailing and crying were heard from Uncle Chu's house next door.
Liu Jiali sat up from the kang and looked at Yao Youjun, who was also sleeping in a daze, with a confused look on her face.
"Friends, Uncle Chu and Brother Min's families are on either side of Big Sister's house, right? Whose family is it? What happened? Why are you crying so hard?"
Yao Youjun came back to his senses after a while, suddenly threw back the quilt, picked up the coat at the end of the kang and put it on himself, "You continue to sleep, I'll go out and take a look..."
Just as I walked out of the house, I saw the old lady Chu next door coming out, "Grandma Chu? Next door..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Chu waved her hand and said, "Just continue sleeping. Don't worry about it."
Yao Youjun screamed "Ah" and was just wondering what to do when he saw Yao Xiujuan coming out.
When he saw Yao Xiujuan shaking her head slightly at him, he turned around and went back into the house.
Yao Xiujuan watched as Old Lady Chu moved a chair and sat in the yard listening to the noise next door. After thinking for a while, she turned and went to the kitchen. Xinde and Aizhu had breakfast at home this morning, so there was less noodles brought out last night.
Chu Jie looked coldly at Wang Meihua who was crying bitterly, and an indifferent voice came out of his mouth.
"Why are you crying? When you were abusing Aizhu and the others, you should have thought of the consequences."
Wang Meihua burst into tears, shook her head frantically, and cried with trembling hands, "No, no, I didn't mean it. I, I'm just too envious..."
Chu Jie stood up, lowered his head and looked at her indifferently, "What are you envious of? Am I short of food? Or clothes? Look at the clothes on your body, the clothes in your closet, the cream on your face, and your food and clothes. Which one of them was not bought by me? Compared with your cousins at home, what exactly are you lacking?"
Hearing this, Wang Meihua raised her head with tears in her eyes and looked at Chu Jie. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. After a while, she spoke, "I, I just envy Yao Xiujuan. I just envy her a little. I envy her grandma for helping her, and I envy Xiao Shi..."
"Are you done yet? Why are you competing with the young couple every day? Can't you just live your own life?"
Chu Jie took a deep breath, and finally said impatiently, "I don't want to explain again and again. In this case, you can leave now. I will go to the captain to see how to get a divorce certificate first, and then issue you a certificate for household registration transfer. I will take you to the train station tomorrow, and you can go back home!"
Wang Meihua was horrified, her beautiful face now turned ferocious, "No, you can't do this to me! I won't reply, even if I'm beaten to death! I gave birth to four children for you, you can't..."
Upon hearing this, Chu Jie glared at him and said coldly, "You should be thankful that men in our Chu family don't beat their wives. Otherwise, you would have been beaten by me countless times!"
"Don't want to go back to your hometown? Fine, then you can move out of this house. I'll go talk to the captain about getting a divorce certificate!"
“No, no, I don’t want to… I don’t want to…”
Wang Meihua slumped to the ground, mumbling constantly, her beautiful eyes now devoid of all brilliance. She knew she was wrong, so why couldn't they forgive her? Why had she come to Xinjiang then? If she hadn't come, hadn't seen the good life of Chu Tian's family, hadn't seen Yao Xiujuan's comfortable life, she, she would definitely not have changed...
