Chapter 85: Old Lady Zhang, the Crazy Brother-Supporting Demon

As Old Lady Zhang and her group retreated, the onlookers also dispersed. Uncle Zhang Wu invited Father Li to come in and sit down. He waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Go back and calm your sister-in-law down first. We'll talk later if we have time."

Uncle Zhang nodded: "Thank you, Brother Hong."

Father Li patted him on the shoulder and when he turned around, he saw the two young couples at home. He smiled silently and motioned for them to go home together.

Uncle Zhang immediately opened the door and went back to comfort his daughter-in-law.

Aunt Zhang Wu saw her husband coming back and learned that they had left. She breathed a sigh of relief and frowned unconsciously: "What do mother-in-law and the others want to do?"

"You came to my house when I was not at home, hesitated to speak, and your eyes were wandering. It was obvious that there was nothing good. I will go and find out, you don't have to worry."

Aunt Zhang nodded.

Uncle Zhang smiled softly and comforted her, "You behaved very well today. If something like this happens again in the future, wait for me to come back and deal with it. If it really doesn't work, you can ask someone to ask A Ye's wife for help. With her around, my mother and the others won't dare to make trouble."

"Puchi——" Aunt Zhang Wu couldn't help laughing, thinking that A Ye's wife's reputation in the village could indeed intimidate them a little. However, A Ye's wife never liked to meddle in other people's business, so she wouldn't bother her for help unless it was necessary.

"How about this, after you are pregnant, if I go out to work, I will take you to Sister Qi's house. I will feel at ease with Sister Qi helping to take care of you. If mother and the others come looking for you, it will be convenient for you to go find A Ye's wife."

"Will this be too much trouble for Sister Qi?"

"It's okay. I'll go to her house and do some work every day, such as tilling the land or chopping some firewood. This way she doesn't have to go out to work and can stay at home with you."

"Okay, you made the decision without asking for anyone's consent."

"No, I just had this idea, and I'll go discuss it with them later."

"If they have no objection, I think it's feasible." Although she felt that it would be a bit of a hassle for others, for the sake of her children, she felt that she could shamelessly visit someone else's home.

Aunt Qi: Oh, there is such a good thing? I chat with people every day, and someone does the farm work. What's the problem?

Uncle Zhang has not gone out in the past few days. He has been taking care of his wife at home. At the same time, he has been secretly asking the villagers about his mother's intention in coming to his house before. He has some clues, but has not yet confirmed whether it is true or not.

Aunt Zhang Wu felt that she was not feeling unwell and wanted to go out for a walk, so Uncle Zhang Wu took his wife to Li's house to have Yan Yiyi take her pulse again.

Yan Yiyi withdrew her hand: "There's nothing wrong with Aunt Wu and the child. Just be careful in daily life."

After getting the confirmation, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of his mother's plan and looking at his wife who cared so much about the child, Uncle Zhang felt it shameless to ask Yan Yiyi to help look after his wife.

"Don't worry, wife Aye. Your fifth aunt is usually at Sister-in-law Qi's house. If my mother and the others come looking for us someday, please come forward to stop them and then have someone call me back to deal with it."

Yan Yiyi did not respond immediately, but asked, "Fifth Uncle, do you know your mother and the others' purpose?"

"Although it's not confirmed, I think they want to adopt my brothers' children under my name, so that they can take over my property after we die."

"Are your brother and sister-in-law willing to adopt their son to you?" Yan Yiyi raised her eyebrows, quite puzzled. Isn't this era very patriarchal?

"Each of their families has at least three children, and most have two or more sons. Giving up one of them can reduce their burden and allow them to take my things legitimately. Why wouldn't they want to?"

"From what you said, your four brothers each adopted a son for you?" Xin Ye was also shocked by the Zhang family's bold move.

Uncle Zhang nodded. Although it was embarrassing, they were shameless and he didn't care about them.

Uncle Zhang did not hide anything and uncovered the Zhang family's assets.

Old Lady Zhang has liked to support her parents' family since she got married, and she has been doing so for most of her life. In order to support her parents' family, she would rather starve her sons and grandchildren than feed her younger brother, nephews and great-nephews.

When conscription was launched before, Old Lady Zhang would rather let her fourth son join the army than pay any money, and instead paid ten taels of tax for her younger brother to be exempted from military service.

After spending such a large sum of money, everyone in the Zhang family except the two elders will have to tighten their belts and live a frugal life. Since they can't have enough food to eat, won't they turn their attention to Uncle Zhang?

Yan Yiyi didn't expect that there would be such a brother-supporting maniac, but human nature is complicated, so she didn't bother to care.

"Your father doesn't care about her?" She became even more curious about this.

Uncle Zhang Wu shook his head and said, "My father has always been controlled by my mother. Anyway, when my mother tortured us, she never let him go hungry. He turned a blind eye."

"Uncle Wu, since they have set their sights on you, even if Aunt Wu is pregnant, they may still take action against her for their own benefit." Yan Yiyi looked at Aunt Wu Zhang and said, "You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever.

When a woman becomes pregnant and gives birth, it is like stepping into Hades' palace. There are dangers everywhere, and tragedies of two deaths and one death may occur at any time. "

As soon as these words were spoken, Uncle Zhang and his wife's faces turned grim, and they couldn't utter a word of rebuttal, because they knew in their hearts that they were capable of doing such a thing.

"Uncle Wu, how many sons and grandchildren does your uncle have?"

Uncle Zhang Wu didn't know why Xin Ye had such a question, but he answered truthfully: "My mother has only one brother, my uncle gave birth to two sons, my eldest cousin gave birth to two sons and three daughters, and my youngest cousin gave birth to one son and five daughters."

"Can't your five brothers defeat these two brothers?"

"Whenever we fight, my mother always sides with my cousin and his friends."

Xin Ye curled his lips and smiled playfully: "Isn't it normal to fight with cousins? As long as they don't break their legs or hands or their lives, the government will not handle these family conflicts.

Moreover…" He paused deliberately before continuing, "If your mother dares to fight you, you can go and have a good fight with your cousin and teach your nephew a lesson. There is no such thing as disobeying your parents. What else do you have to worry about?"

Yan Yiyi didn't expect Xin Ye to give advice to Uncle Zhang Wu. He never interfered in other people's family affairs. Could it be that he suddenly had a conscience today?

"I think your brother and sister-in-law would be more willing to retaliate than to abandon their own children."

How much wealth can the two people in Uncle Zhang's family save?

Especially since they have to share it equally with others. If they let their son call others father and mother just for such a small thing, not only will they be unhappy, but the villagers will also poke holes in their spines. They are not so shameless.

When Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang heard this, they felt as if they had been enlightened. How come they didn't think of such a simple method?

I endured so many years of suffering in vain!
