Chapter 164 Crying Poor
"You're finally back? Don't you see what time it is? Are you not going to have lunch?"
Ouyang Hua had a dark face.
Jiang Anan walked in, took a glance at the situation, and immediately frowned.
But this was someone else's family affair, and she was afraid that Ma Meihua would be embarrassed, so she went back to her room.
Seeing Jiang Anan leave, Ouyang Hua's face became even darker.
"Dad, Mom bought New Year's goods!"
Little boy Zhenhua spoke cautiously, hoping that his father would stop talking about his mother.
However, it would have been better if he hadn't heard this. As soon as Ouyang Hua heard it, he noticed the New Year's goods in Ma Meihua's hand.
"Your mother didn't buy this!"
After saying that, he waved his hand and told his son to go back to the house.
After his son left, he said with a gloomy face: "Ma Meihua, I don't want to embarrass you in front of the children, but can you learn a lesson?
What did I tell you yesterday? I told you not to associate with her, why didn't you take my words to heart? Can I harm you?
Now, they just said a few words to you and asked you to carry their stuff all the way, why don’t you just take it back and give it back to them!"
After hearing this, Ma Meihua's good mood was instantly ruined.
"Who told you that these New Year's gifts were sent to our family by An An. She didn't ask me to help her carry them!"
I feel so sad.
But Ouyang Hua's face turned even worse after hearing this.
"Someone gave it to me? Ma Meihua, should I say you're stupid or something? Did you go to complain about your poverty to them? You have no shame, but I still have some! Return the things to me right now!"
"I didn't say anything. She gave it to me because she saw that I accompanied her all the way and helped take care of the children. Why am I crying poor?"
Ma Meihua became more and more upset as she spoke, "If you really have any shame, you should give me money to buy New Year's goods. Why are you arguing with me here?"
"Okay, okay! I can't talk to you anymore!"
Ouyang Hua was breathing heavily.
It seems that Liu Qiaoyun was right, his wife was really led astray by Jiang Anan!
"Dad, stop scolding Mom. I won't eat snacks during the New Year..."
Ouyang Zhenhua ran out of the house, crying and talking.
"You are just like your mother, both of you are troublesome. What are you greedy for? You are a boy, don't be afraid of being laughed at if you tell others about it!"
After hearing what his father said, Ouyang Zhenhua cried even more sadly.
Ma Meihua hurried forward, hugged her son and comforted him, feeling heartbroken.
Looking at this crying scene, Ouyang Hua was so annoyed that he turned around and left.
In the yard, the only sounds left were Ma Meihua and her son sobbing.
Jiang Anan couldn't sit still in the room anymore, so she went out to comfort him, but she didn't expect Ouyang Hua to turn around and come back.
When Ouyang Hua saw Jiang Anan coming out, his face looked a little embarrassed.
But after coughing twice, he still reminded: "Mom and Dad are coming to celebrate the New Year with us this year, so you should prepare the bed today."
Ma Meihua's parents had passed away long ago, so the ones who came were naturally Ouyang Hua's parents.
"There's no room for me at home!"
She sighed.
And even if she could find room to stay, she didn't want to meet Ouyang Hua's parents, as neither of them was easy to get along with.
"Wouldn't it be possible to stay here if we just squeeze in? Just let Zhenhua sleep on the floor, and mom and dad can sleep in his bed! The most important thing in life is to be filial. It's rare for mom and dad to come over, so you should prepare everything!"
Having said that, he left in a hurry.
Before leaving, he glanced at Jiang Anan, but in the end he didn't know what to say.
Jiang Anan, who watched the whole process, felt helpless.
"Zhenhua, go play first!"
Jiang Anan took out a handful of melon seeds, handed them to Zhenhua, and sent him away.
"Sister Ma, why don't you come sit in my room for a while?"
Ma Meihua wiped her tears and followed Jiang Anan into the house.
Jiang Anan poured her a cup of hot tea.
After pondering for a moment, she said, "Sister Ma, if you are unwilling to do something, just refuse firmly, maybe it will save you some trouble."
She actually didn't want to interfere in other people's affairs, but...
After all, I can't stand it.
But Ma Meihua sighed, "There's nothing I can do, An'an. My man and I are not like your family. If you don't like something, Deputy Captain Xu probably won't force you, but my family..."
Having said that, I can only sigh.
Perhaps because no one had ever spoken to her, Ma Meihua felt so pent up that she drank a sip of tea and sniffed her nose, "Actually, he wasn't like this at the beginning...
When I first met him, he was polite and very nice to me, and we started dating.
Later, he wanted to go to the countryside, and I couldn’t bear to let him go, so I took him to meet my parents. My parents didn’t agree at first, saying that he…”
At this point, Ma Meihua was silent for a moment, and continued: "After all, he agreed to let us get married, so he didn't have to go to the countryside anymore.
My father worked in the military region. Seeing that he could read and write well, he recommended him to be a teacher in the affiliated middle school. He was also capable and the school was quite satisfied with him, so they kept him.
When my parents were still alive, he was always very nice to me. People praised me for marrying well, saying that I was not good at studying, but I married a cultured man. "
When Jiang Anan heard this, she couldn't help but feel confused.
"Then how is he now..."
Ma Meihua's eyes dimmed when she heard this.
"My parents were in poor health, and they passed away before I became pregnant with Zhenhua. I felt so miserable at that time that I didn't want to live anymore.
Maybe it was fate. When I wanted to follow my parents, I became pregnant with Zhenhua. At that time, my husband told me to stop working and he would support the family.
In fact, everything was fine at the beginning. He comforted me every day and told me not to be sad, to look forward, and said that with the baby coming, the family would be complete.
But after I gave birth to Zhenhua, the family had more and more places to spend money. He was under great pressure to support the family, and his temper became worse and worse, especially towards me..."
Ma Meihua couldn't continue talking after this.
In fact, Ouyang Huaren is not a bad person, but...
She didn't know what to say.
At this point, Jiang Anan finally understood.
But she couldn't understand Ouyang Hua's change.
To put it bluntly, Ouyang Hua did not go to the countryside and was able to become a teacher in the affiliated middle school because of Ma Meihua and her parents. In addition, it was he who persuaded Ma Meihua not to go to work, but he ended up with this attitude.
"Actually, after Zhenhua was able to go to school on his own, I was planning to go back to work. But I got pregnant again, and then I was told to plan my family and delay the pregnancy by a few months. I was really..."
Ma Meihua wiped away her tears.
She really doesn't want to live a life of relying on others anymore!
Jiang Anan was silent for a while, and then she thought about what she had talked about with Ma Meihua at the market.
"Didn't you say that you made all the clothes for Zhenhua yourself? Why don't you try setting up a stall at the market to sell some children's clothes?"
But Ma Meihua waved her hand.
"He won't agree!"
Ouyang Hua is very concerned about his reputation and looks down on those who set up stalls to do business, saying that they are of the lowest class.
Jiang Anan opened her mouth and was about to persuade him, but she didn't expect that someone suddenly appeared outside the yard——
