We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?
Chapter 4 Ask for some interest before splitting up
Zhao took two steps back in anger, holding onto the door frame and gasping for breath.
Cheng Yueli didn't bother to pay attention and looked at Li Manying with cold eyes. She hated people who favored boys over girls the most!
"Oh, and sister-in-law, you just said that girls can only eat bran? You are also a girl, why don't you eat bran?"
Li Manying frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "How are they the same?"
"Why are they different? Are you short of milk or skin?"
Li Manying stiffened his neck in anger, "Ah! How can you talk like that? It's vulgar!"
Cheng Yue took a step forward and said coldly: "I can say whatever I want! I have died once, and I have figured out some things.
My father taught me to be kind to others, but I didn’t expect that the person I met was not a kind person. Now I think I should learn from my mother.”
"Oh, you probably haven't forgotten what my mother does~"
Cheng Yue's mother was a notorious shrew in several villages nearby. She was a female butcher who killed pigs without blinking an eye!
Zhao's eyelids twitched. It was because Cheng Yue's mother was a butcher and a fierce person that Cheng Yue's marriage was difficult.
Even though her father was a scholar, most people did not dare to marry him.
However, the Cheng family asked for two taels less dowry than other families, and he didn't value Chen An, so he took advantage of them.
No matter how fierce a daughter-in-law is, she can crush her with her mother-in-law's status! What kind of trouble can she cause?
When Cheng Yue came in, she was still as honest and attentive as ever.
Who would have thought that Cheng Yue was just pretending, and now she finally couldn't help but show her true colors!
It’s hard to say, but he just saw that he couldn’t rely on the second child, so he came to covet the eldest wife’s property!
This is a marriage fraud! Not only is she a shrew, but she is also a shrew who really dares to fight with her.
Zhao wanted to cry but had no tears. "You, what on earth are you going to do!"
Cheng Yue said innocently, "What can I do? I just feel that my mother-in-law and sister-in-law have been so good to me over the years, how can I repay them?
From now on, our family must take care of each other~"
Zhao fell to the ground. What kind of person did the second son marry? How dare he threaten them so openly?
Li Manying went to help Zhao, raised his head and glanced at Cheng Yue quickly, then smiled in a friendly manner and said:
"Sister-in-law, it was mother and sister-in-law who were confused before. You are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with us."
Cheng Yue snorted and didn't bother to pay attention to them. She picked up two stoneware bowls and a comb and left the kitchen.
She was not afraid that Zhao would gossip with the villagers. After today's incident, Zhao's already shaky popularity had been further damaged. If she dared to say anything, who would believe her?
She was making such a fuss because she wanted to divide the family, but this was ancient times and Chen An was not dead, so she couldn't bring it up.
Moreover, she was not sure whether Chen An would agree to divide the family, so the best way was to let Zhao take the initiative to propose it.
Li Manying is a scheming person. She will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity and will definitely instigate Zhao to separate their second house.
Since we can't divide the property for the time being, we might as well scare them first and ask for some interest on behalf of the original owner.
As expected, as soon as Cheng Yue left the kitchen, Li Manying started to instigate:
"Mom, look at the state of my second son's wife. She might go crazy one day and our whole family will suffer."
"Your two grandchildren are scholars. They will take the imperial examinations and become officials in the future. You can't let this crazy woman ruin their careers. Mother, you have to divide the family!"
The hateful little bitch actually cheated her out of ten taels of silver. When the family is divided, let’s see how the sick and weak people in her family will survive!
Zhao came to her senses. Yes, their Chen family was counting on their two golden grandchildren to make their ancestral graves glow with smoke. If they were implicated by this bitch, how would she face the old man in the underworld?
He murmured, "Do you think I don't want to divide the family? But the second son has injured his leg. If I divide them now, won't the villagers stab me in the back?"
"It would be best if the second brother divorced that bitch. I have already paid ten taels of silver, and I can't let it go to waste.
If the second son is cured, he will be a strong laborer, and someone will have to take care of the more than ten acres of land at home."
As for those little ones, just keep them. They can do laundry, cooking and other rough housework. You can sell them when the time comes and make some money back.
"Mother, the second son's wife didn't break any of the seven grounds for divorce, so how can you divorce her? Besides, how can you cure the second son's leg with ten taels of silver?
The second son's wife might want to embezzle the money. If the disease cannot be cured, we will have to pay more than ten taels of silver! That would be a real waste of money!"
Li Manying didn't care whether Cheng Yue was divorced or not. What she cared about was to separate the second brother's family. It was not easy to get a chance to divide the family, so Li Manying naturally fanned the flames.
Zhao drooped her eyelids and said nothing. Li Manying took the opportunity to make a big promise: "Mom, think about it, after the family is divided, without the burden of the second house, our life will be much better. I will let you eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day."
"When your two grandchildren become high-ranking officials, you will be the grandmother of high-ranking officials. There will be no one more glorious than you. By then, will you still be worried about the lack of laborers to farm the land? There will be countless people waiting for you!"
After Li Manying said this, Zhao seemed to have foreseen the days when there would be hordes of slaves.
What the eldest son’s wife said makes sense. The second son’s family is always a burden, and we can’t let them hinder our good life.
She wanted to divide the family property. As a son, she believed that the second son would not dare to disobey her. At most, it would disappoint him, but she could not rely on him anyway.
She has been digging in the fields for food all her life, so doesn't she believe that she can dig out gold?
"You still have some brains, but it's a waste of ten taels of silver. It's best to let her spit it out. Also, when the family is divided in the future, the eldest brother's wages will be handed over to the public."
"Yes, mother, I'll do whatever you say." Li Manying smiled wryly, but the old woman was just eyeing her money.
However, when the family is really divided, the money will be another matter. It won’t be a big deal if I agree to it for now.
Zhao was quite satisfied with Li Manying's attitude. She snorted and said, "Hurry up and cook. I'm starving!"
After saying that, he left the back of his head to Li Manying.
"Bah, you really think you are the landlord's old lady!"
Chen Gen and Chen Shu were both scholars who attached great importance to filial piety. Chen Ping also gave them advice in person, but Li Manying could only complain secretly.
Ever since Cheng Yue married into the Chen family, she has been responsible for all the work. Li Manying has long been unfamiliar with the job and it took her a long time to finally light the fire.
On the other side, Cheng Yue had already found her own first aid box in the space. She fed Chen An some antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs, then touched the bump on the back of her head and took an anti-inflammatory pill.
My stomach was empty and I had no strength at all, so I took out a piece of chocolate and ate it to replenish my energy.
Cheng Yue really didn't expect that her hometown from her previous life came with her, and nothing had changed.
It was autumn harvest time before she came here. All the vegetables planted in the yard were ripe and looked very pleasing to the eye. Even the chickens were lively and energetic.
But outside the yard there was a vast expanse of white. I didn’t know if it was waiting to be developed or if it had never existed.
She has read a lot of novels and knows that each space is different, so for now she can only read it slowly.
But now she is very content with this situation, at least she can be well fed and clothed and survive.
This house was left by her grandparents. When she was a child, her parents went to work in the city, so she lived with her grandparents and was not very close to her parents.
Later, her parents settled down in the city and she had a younger brother, so she became even more redundant.
Now that their own daughter is gone, I don't think her parents will be too sad! After all, in their eyes, daughters are useless and can't be relied on.
Cheng Yue smiled with relief. It was good this way, without any worries.
