Chapter 13 Putting Family Separation on the Agenda
Shen Xiucai was not used to this problem of hers, "Da Ya is indeed my sister-in-law's daughter, it's just that I, the aunt, can't even say a few words to her?"
This is what Ms. Zou was thinking in her heart. She impulsively said it directly, "If you have the ability to give birth to a child, why bother holding on to someone else's daughter?"
Shen Xiugang was about to speak, but when he saw Mr. Yang coming out of the house, he swallowed what he was about to say.
"I think you guys are full and full, and you're up here making a lot of noise at noon." Yang said solemnly, "Don't say a few words."
Shen Xiu couldn't bear to say anything, but Mrs. Zou said reluctantly in the room: "Mom, it's not that I'm unreasonable, it's my sister who dominates Da Ya and won't let her go."
Yang frowned and said: "My dear, I think you are confused. Daya likes to follow her second aunt, and her second aunt treats her well. Why don't you think about it, why Daya would rather follow her second aunt than
Are you willing to follow you?"
These words immediately blocked Mrs. Zou, and she finally stopped talking. But the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She felt that her mother-in-law was partial to her daughter-in-law, and she always looked towards her.
When Wei Ping came back from the field, he saw Zou's red eyes wiping tears.
"What's wrong with you?" Wei Ping wondered, "Who made you angry?"
Ms. Zou sobbed and said, "She's not even a mother. She's too partial. She always looks after her younger siblings." After that, she recounted what happened at noon in a more elaborate way.
"My younger siblings are always bullying Da Ya. They either ask Da Ya to light the fire for her or do something to her. I am sick again, and no one cares about the plugs."
Wei Ping scratched his head and said, "Aren't my siblings getting better these days?"
Ms. Zou glared at him: "You don't think she has gotten better just because she has cooked a few meals. In fact, she is secretly holding back bad things! Anyway, I have had enough of this kind of life. Your mother only knows how to be partial and petty.
Son. All the money in the family has been spent on the second child. Unfortunately, Shuanzi has grown so big that he doesn’t even have new clothes."
Zou talked about so many things, but the last sentence struck Wei Ping's heart. He said with some annoyance: "Didn't my mother give me a piece of material when Shuan Zi was full moon?"
It was a good thing that he didn't mention this material. When he mentioned this material, Mrs. Zou started to cry, "You forgot, I kept this material in the box and couldn't bear to make it for Shuanzi. Later, I gave it to my second son as a gift, and my mother gave it to me again.
I want this material back."
She whimpered, "Your mother only has the second child in her heart. I have been married for several years, and I fully expected to live a good life with you. But I have not seen the good days, but the hard days have no end in sight."
Wei Ping said helplessly: "My mother told me that it would be fine if my second brother becomes a scholar in the future."
"Xiucai, Xiucai." Zou said bitterly, "Your mother knows how to draw a big cake for you. Doesn't it cost money to take the exam? I'm afraid that if I squeeze you dry, my second son won't be able to pass the exam."
Wei Ping sighed: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"Let's separate our families!" Ms. Zou finally said these words, "I don't want to live like this anymore. From now on, we will live our own lives."
Wei Ping sighed again: "My parents will not agree."
"I know they won't agree." Zou said, "I have a way, just take a look at mine."
After Shen Xiu made dinner, he called everyone to eat.
The whole family was sitting around the table, but Zou was the only one missing.
Yang glanced at Wei Ping, who lowered his head and said, "She said she didn't feel well, so she stopped eating."
"If you don't want to eat, then you're not hungry." Yang said calmly, "Ignore her, let's eat!"
Wei Ping ate with his head sullenly, and his daughter-in-law said that her mother was partial, but he actually knew it. Mr. Yang had always disliked Ms. Zou as her daughter-in-law, but it turned out that she had younger siblings to compare her with, so it was not obvious.
Now that the younger siblings have gotten better, it seems that Mr. Yang dislikes his daughter-in-law less and less.
Wei Pingyuan felt a little guilty at first, but when he thought about his wife's words, he felt that they should separate as soon as possible!
Except for Wei Ping, no one thought that the Zou family had already put the family separation on the agenda.
The family had a hasty lunch, and Wei's father was about to get up and go for a walk outside as usual, when suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the yard.
"It's so late, who is it?" Yang asked loudly, motioning to Wei Ping to open the door.
Wei Ping opened the courtyard door with concern, and saw a woman in her forties standing outside. She was wearing freshly washed clothes and had a silver hairpin in her head.
"Who are you?" It was a little dark, and Yang didn't recognize who it was for a moment.
But the old woman walked in familiarly, "Sister-in-law Yang is such a noble person and forgets things. I am Mrs. Tan!"
Only then did Yang remember who it was, and she forced a smile and said, "Are you in the wrong place?"
This Mrs. Tan is a human being, and she will usually be invited to visit her only when she is unable to survive and has to sell her children. This is why Yang said this.
Granny Tan smiled and said: "What Sister-in-law Yang said, of course I am not in the wrong place. For the sake of your family's face, I even came in time when it was dark."
Father Wei had forgotten about going out for a walk, and said with a stern face: "Please tell me clearly, why did you come to my house?"
"Aren't you going to sell your girl?" Granny Tan looked at them, "Where is your eldest daughter-in-law? She said she wanted to sell her daughter."
"What?" Yang's expression immediately changed, "Old man, get out of here!"
