Song knew her mother-in-law best; she could tell from her expression that she would never give up.
"What are you afraid of? We used to be the weaker party, but now we get to decide what we want to do."
"It's Mom. A few years ago, Grandma was so agile that she couldn't even jump around. Now she's lying down. How could Dad allow her to jump around? Grandma is very easy to manage, so don't worry. She will definitely not let you serve her."
"What nonsense are you talking about, child? I'm just afraid she'll cause trouble for us."
"She can't make a fuss. Didn't you see that she couldn't do anything to her uncles? Grandma is just a paper tiger."
My daughter sometimes says things she shouldn't, just like her father.
"Mrs. Huang, do you think the third son will agree to take me away?"
Everyone was gone, and the old woman felt a deep emptiness in her heart. Huang kept silent; what could she say? It was obvious they couldn't take her with them.
"Grandma, would you like to see what the Third Master brought you?" she said, picking up something from the table.
"That's why everyone in the village says that Third Master is a very filial son. You see, he always thinks of you and brings you things whenever someone comes back to the village."
Old Mrs. Sun was also most pleased with her youngest son's filial piety and his generosity.
"Of all my sons, he was the one most willing to spend money on me."
"That's right, there's no one in the village more filial than the Third Master. The old lady is so lucky."
Old Mrs. Sun loved it when people said she was very lucky.
"I also feel that I have been very fortunate in this life. Life has been quite smooth since I got married."
Mrs. Huang was speechless. The old man was so angry that he was about to die, yet she still kept saying "smooth sailing." The old lady was truly something else.
"Honey, your brother is back."
Zhao Dayong has had a very difficult time these past two years. His home is in chaos, he is hunched over, and his hair is even gray. He has long lost the desire to scheme against others.
"So what if he comes back? What does his return have to do with us?"
That's true, their coming back has nothing to do with them.
No, it's not that they have absolutely no connection.
"It's not that we're old men; we actually have something to ask of him."
Zhao Dayong looked at his wife. What else could she expect? His third son would never agree to anything they asked for.
“He knows a lot of people and has some influence in the county. Do you think he could help find a good doctor to take a look at the eldest son’s wife?”
Zhao Dayong was stunned.
The elderly couple had many worries in the past two years, but their biggest concern was that their eldest daughter-in-law was unable to conceive.
"Okay, I'll go and beg him."
I don't know what sins they committed, but the eldest son's wife has been married for two years and still can't lay a single egg.
Her belly never swelled up, so they couldn't even have a daughter, let alone a son.
The second son's wife is much more promising than her; she got pregnant just two months after marrying into the family, and now the baby is two months old.
On the day her daughter-in-law gave birth, the eldest daughter-in-law still had a long face. I don't know what she was so happy about. She can't give birth herself and she can't blame others.
The fact that the eldest son didn't divorce her shows how kind their family is.
"Old woman, what if the eldest son's wife really can't have children in the future?"
"Divorce her!"
Without a second thought, Li knew she would never want a daughter-in-law who couldn't have children. Her eldest son couldn't be without an heir; who would they rely on when they got old?
"Divide and remarry? Where will the eldest get the money?"
Looking at his eldest son's former assertiveness, he thought he would be very successful and make a name for himself, but after the family division...
Heh, what a good-for-nothing. He's so lazy, he spends all his time either lying down or wandering around. He hasn't accomplished anything in the past few years, not even doing any work in the fields. It's all done by Pan.
He was really disappointed in him. He never expected him to be so useless. There was no one lazier than him in the whole village.
Because of him, he became the laughingstock of the villagers.
He's a lazy bum and doesn't even have kids; he's worse than the third child from back then.
