Old Lady Bai swept her cold eyes to Bai Erzhu, and said with a bad tone: “Biting the hand that feeds you, I shouldn’t have feed unrelated white-eyed wolf.”
Mrs. Zhang knew that she was the one her mother-in-law was scolding, so her heart also fired in anger: “What mother-in-law said is right, at the end of the day, my surname is Zhang, not Bai. You people are the real members of the Bai Family, and I am an outsider. Since this is the case, I have no reason to borrow rice from my brother to raise you.” Hmph, I’m not Zhao Lan, who doesn’t know how to resist.
“Rebellious, you are rebelling, you are becoming more and more disappointing. In your eyes, is there still a mother-in-law?” Old Lady Bai said in a loud voice while glaring at Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang answered back without hesitation: “If there is a daughter-in-law in the eyes of the mother-in-law, naturally, there will be a mother-in-law in the eyes of the daughter-in-law.”
What’s the sense of saying those words if it will reflect on her?
Bai Fugui, who has always been timid, squeezed out his courage and said in front of everyone: “Grandmother, don’t speak like that to niang. My niang, ever since she came back, she works all alone in the house from morning to evening. You didn’t try to help her. In just 3 days, she got so thin, don’t you feel distressed for my niang?”
Mrs. Zhang was touched. Today, not only her husband, who always listen to her mother’s words, defended her but also her son, who was usually timid. So, she felt like her suffering these past few days were worth it.
Old Lady Bai pointed her finger to Bai Erzhu’s family, as her lips quiver in anger: “Good, good, your family is so good. You are all ganging up on me. Do you want to anger me, so that you can finally become the head of this family?”
Mrs. Zhang sneered with contempt: “Who wants to be the head of this family? I will be the head of my own family.”
Bai Erzhu understood the meaning of his wife’s words. He also thought about it a lot. His wife was right, his old mother only looked at his elder brother’s family. She was very reluctant to let them work. She let them eat foods without doing anything. Especially that kid, Bai Xiaofeng, who knows how much money he spent for his schooling the whole year, in hope for him to become a big government official. In the future, if he becomes a big official, with his selfish and ill temper, will he put his family in his eyes?
Bai Erzhu also made up his mind, he gave follow-up words to his wife: “Niang, since you don’t put our family in your eyes, then it’s better for us to separate. Everyone will manage their own family, no one will take care of other business. ”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she immediately panicked and hurriedly pulled the sleeve of the old lady, then shook her head.
Bai Erzhu was not Zhao Lan, Zhao Lan’s husband was dead. She can separate cleanly with this family. However, Bai Dazhu and Bai Erzhu were still alive, they have to divide the family’s possession. If that happened, and the family’s field was divided into half, what will happen to Bai Xiaofeng studies? How will Bai Dabao get married?
How can Old Lady Bai not understand the worry in Mrs. Liu’s eyes? She understood it very well. After all, Mrs. Liu worries were exactly she was worrying about.
Old Lady Bai snorted and angrily said: “I haven’t died yet, but you want separate? If you really want to separate, then you have to wait until I die.”
Seeing that her plan in making Mrs. Zhang borrow rice from her maternal family failed, Old Lady Bai turned to face Mrs. Liu and said: “You go back to your family first, and borrow a bucket of rice, tell them we will return it as soon as we harvest in our field.”Thanks for reading, likes, and comments.TL’s Request: This site run on ads, so please kindly turn off your ad blocker or add this site to your whitelist to support my translation, if you can.No spoilers, please!
