My scumbag sister stole my husband? I'm a scumbag and married my cowardly brother-in-law

Chapter 50: If logic doesn't work, start talking about feelings

Zhang Lan put her hands on her hips and said unreasonably, "Second Brother, please judge for yourself, is my request excessive?

You and your older brother are both my parents' sons, and your wife and I are both my parents' daughters-in-law. I have been married for five years, and no matter how cold or hot it is, I get up early in the morning to work. After finishing the housework, I work in the fields, and then after finishing the work in the fields, I do the housework.

A few years ago, you were not married yet, Chang Lin Yuting was still young, and your eldest brother needed help to support the whole family. We lived together and supported each other.

Now that you have finally started a family, there is someone who can share the burden with me.

This is not right. Respecting parents is something every child should do. You can't say that you are sharing the burden with me.

In short, this is what I mean. Now that you have a wife, I can't do the work of taking care of my parents alone. It's unfair to me.

Not only is the work unfair to me, but the bride price is even more unfair. My sister-in-law is too embarrassed to go out now, as people laugh at her when she does.

They said they were both daughters-in-law of the Xie family. One received a dowry of 200 yuan, the other received a dowry of 1,000 yuan. One was treated like a slave, and the other was kept at home as a spoiled young lady.

Second brother, tell me, how can I feel balanced in this situation? "

Xie Changqing thought for a moment and said, "It's really unfair. My sister-in-law and my eldest brother should also live separately!

Over the years, my sister-in-law and my brother have made great contributions to the family. I will give you an extra 200 yuan to compensate you and my brother."

Zhang Lan didn't say anything. Feng Yuying opened her mouth to express her disagreement, but was interrupted by Xie Changqing.

"Mom, you and Dad are old and in poor health, so you can do less work in the production team. It's okay to work five or three parts a day.

I will pay for Changlin and Yuting's schooling, including Changlin's marriage gift.

If there is too much work at home, you can stop raising pigs and sheep, and ask Chang Lin and Yu Ting to help with cooking and washing clothes.

You and dad take care of Chang Lin Yuting, and with the thirty yuan and thirty kilograms of food coupons I give you every month, it is enough for you to live.

After being separated like this, everyone can live more comfortably than before."

Wen Wanxin said, your plan is good, but there are people who are too greedy and unwilling to do it!

As expected, the first person to object was Zhang Lan, “My parents are old, and I’m worried that there’s no one around who understands them.

If you don't have children yet, you won't understand the heart of being a parent. You raise your children with great difficulty, but in the end, one by one they throw you away like a burden.

How could the old man accept this?

You two are so cold-hearted and think it’s nothing, but I can’t bear it.”

Two hundred yuan is a one-time buyout. It would be better for them to live together without having to bear the monthly living expenses. Her small family of three does not need more than two hundred yuan a year for living expenses.

What about two years, three years, five years, and ten years?

Zhang Lan will still settle this account.

Wen Wan: He is quite good at packaging himself, confusing concepts and morally blackmailing others.

Not only did Zhang Lan disagree, Feng Yuying also disagreed, "It's not easy for anyone to live these days, a large family has to open their mouths to eat.

The money you give every month is quite a lot, but if you don't manage the household, you don't know how expensive daily necessities are. Thirty yuan is very tight for a family to spend. Even if you want to have meat on National Day, you have to plan and buy it.

You have contributed a lot to this family, and your brother and sister-in-law have also made great contributions, especially your sister-in-law, who has worked hard and without complaint for so many years.

Your wife takes advantage of the living expenses you give her every month and stays away from work, doing nothing. However, your sister-in-law takes care of all the housework.

She just wants to save ten dollars every month to go to school and get married after the National Day. What's wrong with that?

Your wife is not poor, we are all family, it is too disheartening to calculate so clearly. "

It turns out that the old lady tried a hard approach when soft tactics didn't work, and when reason didn't work, she started talking about emotions.

That attitude clearly said:

I just don't like the second daughter-in-law, and I want her to give money to the first daughter-in-law, what's wrong with that? The second daughter-in-law doesn't do any work and still accepts so much dowry, so what's wrong with a little bleeding?

As a son, do you dare to contradict what I say?

Xie Changqing sighed helplessly. No matter how he handled it, she would not be satisfied.

She was right. The size of the contribution cannot be measured by money. During the years when he was in the army, it was his elder brother and sister-in-law who took care of them at home. Their contribution was indeed great.

But he didn't understand. Life could be very good and the housework could be shared by everyone, but he insisted on letting his daughter-in-law do it.

If one person does it, he must also tie up the other person to do it as well.

If one person lives a hard life, he must force everyone to live a hard life as well.

He didn't marry a wife to make her work hard for the family, and he didn't want Wen Wan to suffer any grievances.

Just as he was thinking about how to solve the problem, Wen Wan gave him a look that said "I have a way". Xie Changqing looked at her for two seconds and nodded to signal her to speak.

Wen Wan said: "Mom, we really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are if we don't manage the household, how about this.

I also have a bicycle now. From now on, I will buy the firewood, rice, oil, salt and other daily necessities for the family and keep them at home. The vegetables, fruits and melons grown in my own plot are enough for us to eat, so we don’t have to buy any more.

We also pay for Changlin and Yuting's tuition and living expenses.

My sister-in-law does work hard cooking and doing housework, but ten yuan a month is a bit too much, and we are not well off, so we'll give her half the salary, to five yuan a month.

My parents are old, so they can do less work in the production team, so we give them an extra five yuan pocket money every month.

Is this okay with you?"

I don't know what others think, but Xie Changqing thinks this is a great way to deal with it. He nodded slightly and said:

“That’s a good idea!”

It saves us from arguing over money today and tomorrow.

What a joke! Feng Yuying said angrily, "You're just paying us five dollars a month. Are we beggars?"

The old lady had it figured out. Xie Changqing never cared about buying things, and Wen Wan was the kind of person who wouldn't even bother to help someone when he fell.

How would they, the couple, know how much money they spend in a month? Isn't it just a matter of the old lady saying thirty is thirty, and forty is forty?

But she didn't expect Wen Wan would not let her have her way.

Wen Wan calculated that a worker's monthly salary was only 30 yuan, and everything in the city had to be bought with money. 30 yuan would be enough for a family of five or six to live on, and they could even eat meat a few times a month.

In the countryside, people earn work points in the production team and get food according to the work points. The Xie family earned several work points, so even if the food they got was not enough to eat, it was not much different.

The family grows vegetables and raises chickens and ducks. They don't have to spend money to buy fruits, vegetables, and eggs. They can even sell them in town for some money to buy needles, thread, and other side dishes.

This is how rural people who don’t have a son to subsidize them live.

Even if the Xie family had eight people to feed, with the 30 kilograms of food coupons given by Xie Changqing, it was enough for food.

If Wen Wan guessed correctly, Feng Yuying didn't touch a penny of the money given by Xie Changqing and locked it all in a box.

I don’t know why Feng Yuying kept all that money and didn’t spend it.

Not understanding her behavior can cut off her source of income.

Wen Wan patiently explained, "Mom, I don't mean anything else, I just feel bad that you and Dad have worked so hard for us all our lives and now you still have to worry about the family's meals every day.

Five dollars is a little less, but it is only pocket money. We will buy you anything you need, even if you just want to have a cake or buy clothes or shoes.

You just said that your family lives very tightly on thirty yuan a month.

Xie Changqing works hard outside to make money just to make life better for you, dad, and everyone in this family.

As his daughter-in-law, I should share his worries and take the responsibility of ensuring that the family has enough food to eat and clothes to wear.

By this calculation, thirty yuan a month is definitely not enough.

Xie Changqing's monthly salary is just that little, and I really don't have much to give to you and dad. I hope you and dad can understand how difficult it is for us."

The arrangement is reasonable and has no loopholes.

Feng Yuying couldn't find a reason to get angry, and what was even worse was that Zhang Lan directly betrayed her.
