Chapter 184 Returning to the County with Glory
Zou's mother was angry.
Although these people came with great courtesy, she still felt uncomfortable.
Human prejudice is a particularly terrible thing.
She looked down on the country people, and even more so on Li Dong, a peasant who didn't even have a proper job. What benefit could a farmer bring to their family in the future?
And how should she explain to the Xiang family?
Mother Zou showed no joy at all. She looked at Zou Zhou with a sinister look on her face. "Are you just going to watch them bully me, your own mother?"
Zou Zhou said, "What about you? Haven't you been bullying me all these years? My sister keeps her salary, but mine has to be handed over to you for safekeeping. Is this fair? If you hadn't forced me to marry the man from the Xiang family who is nine years older than me, we wouldn't have come to this point."
"Okay, okay, since you hate me and this family so much, I will just pretend that I don't have a daughter like you!" Zou's mother threatened.
Although they cannot change the fact that Zou Zhou is going to marry a country bumpkin, these bandits should not think that this will make her surrender.
She won't compromise.
"become."
Zou Zhou gritted his teeth and didn't let the tears fall.
"I've given you all my previous wages, and you've also taken the betrothal gifts. After all, you're my biological mother, and it's hard for you to spend money to raise me. This is my way of repaying you for raising me."
"Okay, you have backbone. Once you leave this door, don't ever come back. Go farm with this country bumpkin. I want to see if you can grow flowers in the fields. I tell you, don't come back crying because you're broke. I won't sympathize with you. Also, I won't go to your wedding. Not only us, but none of your relatives or friends will go—"
Zou's mother gritted her teeth and finished speaking in one breath, pointing at the door and shouting, "Get out—"
Zou Zhou's eyes were full of tears, but he held them back and turned away.
"Let's go! This is a lousy place. I won't come a second time even if you invite me! What's wrong with the countryside? The countryside is great!"
Wang Xiu shook her head and followed him.
She made this trip just because she felt sorry for Li Dong who had no parents and it was not easy for him, and Zou Zhou was also a good girl. Otherwise, she would not have come because of Zou's mother's condescending attitude. Is it a big deal to live in the city?
I didn’t expect that my mother-in-law was so hateful and such an interesting person.
Erhe simply felt that Wang Xiu was the best mother-in-law.
When I saw my mother-in-law, I gave her a thumbs up without hesitation.
Wang Xiu gave her a thumbs-up gesture, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came out of Zou's house one after another.
He Zheng was the rear guard.
When they walked into the yard, they heard a few bangs coming from the house, probably because Zou's mother smashed something.
There was quite a commotion. When they came out, many people in the factory dormitory were looking at them.
Zou Zhou walked in front with tears in his eyes and his head held high.
Even if she wants to leave, she will do it openly and with her head held high. She owes nothing to this family!
The aunt who had spoken to her earlier came over and said, "Zou Zhou, I heard everything your family said just now. Um... I think this young man is a good person. He stood up for you when you were beaten just now. When we women marry men, it still depends on whether the men know how to protect them. What's the use of being capable? If you have a bad temper, you will still have a hard time."
"Thank you, Aunt Zhang. I know."
"It's good that you understand. It's good that you understand. With these people backing you up, just live well in the future. No one knows what the future holds."
We are all old neighbors, and everyone knows something about the Zou family. As for favoritism, families with many children tend to have it.
It had never been to that extent before, but I didn't expect Zou's mother to be so outrageous this time. Now that Zou Zhou has left this family, he is relieved.
After all, girls will get married sooner or later and live their own lives.
Now this is fine.
Because they were delayed for a while, when they were about to walk out of the yard.
Zou's mother chased out, "Wait!"
Zou Zhou was stunned for a moment. Although he knew that Zou's mother would not repent, he still couldn't help but have a little hope.
Turned around and looked at Zou's mother.
Zou's mother frowned and looked at her fiercely, "Since you said you don't want to have anything to do with us, don't go back to work at the supply and marketing cooperative."
The last bit of hope in Zou Zhou's eyes disappeared.
How did it come to her turn to work at the supply and marketing cooperative?
I originally found it for my sister, but she felt too tired to stand all day and didn't want to do it, so I gave it to her.
Zou's mother said that she had spent some money and asked Zou Zhou to hand over most of his salary.
Zou Zhou took a leave of absence this time. She didn't expect things to come to this point.
She was thinking of going back to work after settling down. No matter what, she had let Li Dong spend so much money, and Zou's mother would not prepare a dowry for her, so she would earn it herself and make up for it bit by bit. She didn't expect Zou's mother to be so ruthless!
"Okay, take them all back!"
…
This trip to the Zou family was really unpleasant, but fortunately I was able to break off relations with the Zou family.
For Erhe, this is the best outcome.
If Zou Zhou really wanted to stay in the Zou family, who knows what bad ideas Zou's mother might have. It would be better to end it completely since it is impossible to guard against it.
There is also a sense of fate between children and parents; some are just not born to be together.
But now it has become like this.
Erhe has to support her good friend.
"He Zheng, go tell Li Dong that you can't bully Zou Zhou just because she doesn't have her family's support. I'll be the first one to disagree."
"Wife, I have already told Li Dong these words a long time ago. Li Dong is not that kind of person." He Zheng still believed in Li Dong's character.
Although this kid is a little weird sometimes, he is not a bad person.
"Mom, will anyone in the village gossip about it? Also, when Li Dong and Zou Zhou have their wedding, no one from Zou's family will come. What if someone says something about it?" Although Erhe had experienced the same thing, her situation was different, and she was strong inside.
I don’t know if Zou Zhou can handle it.
"I'll go and smooth things over later. Our village is relatively united now. If there's anyone looking for trouble, it's the Zhao and Zhu families. But there's no need to take what they say to heart. A dog can't spit out ivory. Their own family is in a mess and they're not happy with anyone else."
Wang Xiu still has a clear idea of the situation in the village.
Especially now that they have the business of raising chickens and pigs, and their family is taking the lead in this matter, others will naturally have to pay more attention to it.
If she goes back to say hello, no one will say anything.
As for what people say behind my back, I can’t control that.
After explaining all this, Erhe has another important thing to tell you.
When Zou Zhou came home, she took him to the small house at the back.
Zou Zhou looked at the sewing machine, sweatshirts and fabrics piled in the corner of the room, and was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Erhe, you, you secretly..."
"Shh, keep your voice down. I've wanted to tell you this a long time ago, but you work at the supply and marketing cooperative, so it's not convenient for you to come. Now it's just a coincidence that you've come to our village, so let's work hard together. They all say that the countryside is poor and look down on us, but we have to fight for our reputation. As for your family, your mother has done things so ruthlessly. When you have the chance to show off in front of her in the future, let's unite and work hard, and then we can return to the county town in glory!"
