The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children

In Tong Huaqiong's previous life, during the Chinese New Year, she was reluctant to follow her parents back to her hometown to pay New Year's greetings during the first month of the lunar year.

People in her hometown always advised her with concern that a girl should not study so much, asked her if she had a boyfriend, and urged her to hurry up and find one when she found out that she didn't... The topic of conversation even extended to asking her to have children as soon as possible after graduation, and it would be best if she had two children, a boy and a girl to make a perfect family.

She couldn't run away because of her relatives' relationship, so she always smiled.

Now that she is in Tong Dajiao's world, there is nothing wrong with paying New Year's greetings, as no one is urging her to get married anyway.

As a widow, she won't be forced to marry, right?

At home, she is at the top of the food chain and is respected. In the eyes of the young people in the village, she is an aunt. In the eyes of outsiders, she is Tong the Shopkeeper and Suifeng the Township Lord.

Given her position, she is the only one who preaches to others, and it is not others' turn to preach to her.

So she doesn't reject New Year's greetings.

As they were talking about New Year's greetings, the door of Tong Huaqiong's house was pushed open.

"Aunt Big Foot, we are here to wish you a happy new year."

"Auntie Tong, are you up yet? Here are some New Year's greetings."

A group of people came into the yard.

This is when the villagers come to wish each other a happy new year.

The first group of people who came were the hired workers of Tong Huaqiong's family. Leading the way were Ergouzi, Gu Xiaocao, Qin Qingyou and his wife Liu Qiaoyun.

"Boss, we're here to wish you a happy new year. Happy New Year." Liu Qiaoyun smiled as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Happy New Year." Tong Huaqiong greeted everyone with a smile.

Everyone was about to kowtow in the yard, and Tong Huaqiong was so scared that she quickly called everyone to wake them up.

Tong Huaqiong said: "We don't need to do this. Just kneel down to the heaven, the earth and your parents. I have received your kindness."

She could accept her children and grandchildren kowtowing to her to wish her a happy new year, but she couldn't stand outsiders kneeling on the ground.

It will shorten your life.

Tong Huaqiong asked Gu Dahan and Gu Dashu to bring out melon seeds, peanuts and pastries to distribute to everyone.

"Grandma Tong, this is a New Year's gift for you."

After the people who came to pay New Year's greetings left, Chunni stayed and handed a scarf to Tong Huaqiong.

"You knitted it. You have such a skillful hand." Tong Huaqiong accepted the scarf.

Chunni nodded and said shyly, "My mother drew the flowers."

Tong Huaqiong likes children like Chunni who are grateful and repay their kindness.

"This dress looks good on you." Tong Huaqiong looked Chunni up and down. Seeing that she was wearing a brand new dress, she knew that Mrs. Luo would not dare to refuse to give the satin she gave to Chunni.

Chunni smiled.

Chunni said to Tong Huaqiong: "Grandma Tong, my mother asked me to wish you a happy new year on her behalf."

Tong Huaqiong gave Cao a holiday these days, but Cao had no rest at home. Her mother-in-law Luo asked her to take care of the whole family. I guess she was very busy today and her mother-in-law didn't allow her to go out.

Chunni heard footsteps outside and knew that another group of people were coming to wish Tong Huaqiong a happy new year, so she was about to leave.

"Chun Ni, wait a moment, I have a gift for you too."

Tong Huaqiong walked into the room and took out the gift she had prepared in advance.

"Here, this is a New Year's gift for you." Tong Huaqiong handed Chunni a box of hand oil and a pair of gold earrings.

Chunni didn't expect there would be a New Year's gift.

She knew Tong Huaqiong's temper. Since it was given to her, she would not be hypocritical. Refusing it would seem deliberate, so Chunni happily took it and kept thanking her.

In addition to doing the work in the pigsty, Chunni also had to help with housework with Cao when she got home. Considering Chunni's young age, Gu Dahan only allowed her to add pig feed and never let her do heavy work such as cleaning.

It was different for her at home. She had to wash clothes and prepare vegetables. Mrs. Luo was worried about the hot water and did not allow anyone else in the family to use it except her son and grandson. As a result, Chunni's hands were cracked from washing clothes for Chunwang at home these days.

The hand-crack oil was specially given to Chunni by Tong Huaqiong.

Chunni went outside and opened the box, and was so moved.

Chunni saw her grandmother Luo who was visiting the village to pay New Year's greetings, and quickly stuffed the hand-crack oil and gold earrings into her arms.

These days, she saw her mother being bullied by her grandmother, and she had a bold idea. Grandma Tong's niece Duo'er's mother had divorced, so could her own mother also divorce?

If her mother and father divorced, she would follow her mother, just like Duoerhuaer, and leave the Tian family and live with her.

Just by working for Aunt Tong, he was able to survive living in the dilapidated temple.

She really didn't want to use her own salary to support the ungrateful Chunwang's studies.

Once she mentioned the matter of divorce to her mother, her mother covered her mouth in fear.

Before Tong Huaqiong's yard was quiet for a while, the second wave of people coming to pay New Year's greetings arrived.

This time, it was Liu Yue'e's brother and sister-in-law, as well as the family of Liu Tong, the son of the village chief, and his family.

After the New Year's greetings, Tong Huaqiong still gave each child a red envelope, which contained change that had already been exchanged.

Liu Yue'e's niece Liu Xiuxiu said that she was already a grown-up girl and should not be married. What's more, she was working in Taohua Dessert Bakery. Tong Huaqiong not only focused on her training but also paid her. Many girls in the village envied her, and she was already very satisfied.

Tong Huaqiong smiled and said, "Today we don't care about the relationship between the boss and the employee, we only care about the relationship between the elders and the juniors. I am your elder, so you should take it. The other children have all of them, but if I leave you out, wouldn't it mean that I am partial?"

Liu Xiuxiu felt embarrassed after hearing what Tong Huaqiong said and accepted the red envelope.

After the Liu family left, another group of people came to pay New Year's greetings.

This time it was students from the private school who came to wish their teacher Su Chengmin a happy new year.

The children crowded into the yard and came together to express their gratitude to Su Chengmin.

Even the annoying Chunwang looked handsome when mixed among the children.

As the sun rises, it is time to visit the villagers and wish them a happy new year.

Tong Huaqiong only visited a few families she was familiar with and three or two families of the Gu family who were on good terms with her. The rest of the families were just to go their separate ways.

The head of the Gu family sat in the house waiting for Tong Huaqiong to come and wish her a happy new year.

Even if Tong Huaqiong didn't go to the ancestral hall to pay her respects, she had to come to wish the clan leader a happy new year, even if it was just for the sake of face.

Paying New Year's greetings to the clan leader is an annual tradition.

She has now been conferred the title of a village lady, and countless eyes are staring at her. If she does not come to the clan leader's house to pay New Year's greetings, wouldn't she be handing the wrong person a handle on her? In the future, when Gu Jingzhe becomes an official, he will also be impeached by someone with ulterior motives for being disloyal and unfilial to the clan.

If Tong Huaqiong considered her reputation and Gu Jingzhe, there was no way she would not come.

Tong Huaqiong's laughter was heard outside. The clan leader smoothed his clothes and waited for her to step into the house.

But after waiting for a long time, Tong Huaqiong didn't come home.

The clan leader sent his grandson Gu Dahu out to get information. When Gu Dahu came back, he said that Tong Huaqiong went to the third uncle's house next door to pay New Year's greetings.

The clan leader was so angry that he almost pounded the ground.

This widow Tong really doesn't give me face.

The clan leader was expecting Tong Huaqiong to come over to his house after coming out from next door, but until the New Year's greetings were over, Tong Huaqiong had not stepped into the clan leader's house.

After Tong Huaqiong finished her New Year greetings, she returned to her warm home.

The whole day of the first day of the New Year was spent in wishing new years greetings and receiving new years greetings.
