Li glanced at her daughter-in-law and then closed her eyes. It wasn't that she was saying this, but she really disliked Erzhuzi's wife; look at her fawning manner now.
Do you really think that giving her daughter a gift means they think highly of her? Don't dream, it's just a show of politeness.
The third brother's family is masters of saving face. Except for a few families at the end of the village, they treat everyone with a superficial relationship. And yet, everyone thinks they are kind and good-hearted.
Hypocritical, deadbeat liar.
Mrs. Wang was also unhappy today. Her grandson hadn't been born yet, and she didn't know when her third son would come home again. She didn't know if she would still be able to receive this gift.
She glanced at the box again, wondering what was inside.
Sigh, seeing the children reminds me of my eldest daughter. Although her stepsons seem to treat her fairly well now, and she seems to be doing alright.
In fact, she knew that Ru Xin was not happy at all, and was feeling very wronged and resentful. She looked down on her man, even though he doted on her.
In recent years, their family has finally settled down since the birth of their daughter. They have a newly built house, their eldest son is getting married soon, and Ru Xin, who hasn't become a mother yet, is about to become a grandmother.
She just became a grandmother.
Wang wiped her eyes, thinking, "I can't cry today, it's the New Year."
The daughter hated them. Since she got married, she never came back to see them except for necessary holidays, and they almost never visited her either, only once after the new house was built.
We've grown quite distant from each other now, and we don't even know what to say when we meet.
That said, she'll be able to see her daughter again in a couple of days; Ruxin will definitely be back on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
I'll give her a good talking-to then. She's helped her husband's family enough over the years; she can't continue to help them. She must save some money for her retirement.
Ru Xin is good in every way, except for one thing: she's too honest and straightforward. She's open and honest with everyone and doesn't leave herself any way out.
After the meal, Zhao Dashu left some money and left. Zhao Dawen followed him, saying, "Third brother, may I come to your house for a while?"
Zhao Dashu wanted to say no, "Brother, is something wrong?"
"A little."
What else can he say if something happens?
"Alright, let's get in the carriage together and take Erzhuzi's wife home first."
"Alright!" Zhao Dawen hadn't ridden in a mule cart for many years, and he was very satisfied to be able to ride in a horse-drawn carriage for a while today.
The others put their hands in their pockets, hunched their shoulders, and hurried home.
Old Mrs. Sun was very happy today. Although her unfilial son had eaten some of her things, hadn't she made up for it? She counted the silver twice to make sure it was correct before happily stuffing it into her purse.
"Second brother, where's your money?"
Zhao Dayong's whole family left, leaving Zhao Dayong alone to face the old lady.
“Mother,” Zhao Dayong knelt down in front of the old lady’s bed, “Dazhu was beaten half to death, and a lot of money was spent. The Pan family is unwilling to contribute a single penny. Your son really can’t afford to support his old age.”
What did you say?
Upon hearing that her retirement savings were gone, and that her entire family had been eating and drinking for free, the old lady flew into a rage!
"You heartless bastard, is your son more important than me? It's important that Dazhu is healed, but it's not important whether your mother has food to eat, right?"
Don't you remember why I was lying here? You heartless, despicable wretch! If it weren't for your son, would I be like this today?
"If you hadn't spoiled your son Sanzhuzi, would he have been so audacious? Speaking of which, you still haven't paid me back the money you owed me for the bracelet. Now you want to withhold my retirement allowance."
The old woman became more and more heartbroken as she spoke, "Old man, open your eyes and see what your supposedly filial son has done! Old man, why did you leave us so early? After you left, all of your sons can bully me and disregard me."
The second son is especially unfilial; his son almost beat me to death, and now he doesn't want to support me in my old age. He's a son who deserves to be struck by lightning! How can he not be afraid of retribution?
Zhao Dayong was so scolded by his mother that he couldn't even lift his head.
