Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

Xu Xiangbei kept his head down, tugging at his clothes with both hands, not daring to look at his family.

He knew that he was really in trouble this time.

Li Ergou stood beside him, holding a piece of weed in his mouth. "Isn't it just eating a chicken? You are the brother-in-law of the Shen family. What's wrong with eating a chicken?"

Xu Xiangbei immediately covered his mouth and said, "Stop talking, stop talking, I have nothing to do with the Shen family."

"Xiangbei, are you really going to do something like this?"

Old man Xu looked at his grandson in disbelief. He was unable to breathe and covered his chest with his hands, which was heaving violently.

In his impression, although his grandson was a little impatient, he was the blood of their Xu family and would never do such a sneaky thing.

Xu Xiangyang couldn't bear it any longer, rushed forward, and punched Xu Xiangbei hard in the face.

"Are you that greedy and hungry? Who are the Shen family? Before you do anything, can you think about your family first? Now, you have completely disgraced our Xu family."

"Xu Xiangbei, I think you are hopeless!"

Tian Lanfang hurriedly went over to separate the two men, "Stop fighting, stop fighting, no matter what, Xiangbei is still your brother, you can't kill him."

Xu Xiangyang didn't want to hear anything. "Mom, don't stop me. I have to teach him a lesson today."

After saying that, he raised his hand and slapped Xu Xiangbei on the right cheek. His cheek instantly swelled up and was burning with pain.

Xu Xiangbei kept his head down, not daring to look at them or speak.

Until Old Man Xu shouted, "Okay, stop fighting."

If the fight continues, the Shen family will just be watching the fun.

Xu Manyue looked at this scene, and apart from anything else, she actually felt quite relieved.

These people in the Xu family are hypocritical and just know how to pretend.

Now that their fig leaf has been torn off in public, I don’t know what excuses they can still make.

The old lady snorted coldly, "Captain, now the matter is clear. It was the Xu family who stole our chickens."

"I just want to ask, what should we do with these two chicken thieves now?"

The captain looked at Old Man Xu, then at the old lady, and thought for a moment.

"How about this? The chicken was stolen by Xu Xiangbei and Li Ergou together. Let them both pay you for the chicken and then ask them to apologize to you."

"Let's just let this matter pass."

After these words were spoken, the Xu family hadn't said anything yet.

The old lady immediately jumped out and said, "No, absolutely not. Captain, you didn't see the Xu family's arrogant attitude just now."

"They said that the Xu family would never do something like stealing a chicken, and that it must be our Shen family who framed them. They also said that once the truth is revealed, we, the Shen family, will be punished."

"How can I tolerate their attitude? What's more, they bullied our Shen family's daughter-in-law in front of our Shen family."

"Man Yue is a military family member. Jing Ming had such a dangerous battle on the battlefield, almost escaping death. As his mother, how could I let his wife be bullied by some outsiders?"

As she spoke, the old lady's eyes became red and she pulled Xu Manyue and started crying.

"Jingming, you've been making great achievements outside, but your mother is useless and can't protect your wife. She's been bullied by the whole family, and even an old woman like me has been bullied as well."

"Man Yue, you have suffered a lot since you married me. Your mother is useless and let you be bullied by outsiders. My poor daughter-in-law."

Xu Manyue's eyes were red, and she leaned on the old lady's arms and cried, "Mom, don't say it. It's my fault. I made you suffer, and you also made it so that you could be bullied by those people while you were protecting me."

In my mind, a series of system prompts sounded:

"Ding, the ultimate mother-in-law publicly defends her third daughter-in-law... Transformation value +99... Transformation value +188... Transformation value +222..."

"Two extra buckets of mountain spring water, one pound of sugar, and one pound of pork..."

……

Xu Manyue looked at the captain with tears in her eyes, "Uncle Yang, it was you who helped me bear witness when I severed my relationship with the Xu family."

"But now the Xu family still acts like they are the elders, pointing fingers at me from a high position and calling me vicious and cold-blooded."

The captain sighed, but he didn't say anything yet.

Xu Shanping jumped out immediately, pointed his finger at Xu Manyue's nose and cursed.

"You still have the nerve to say that. No matter how different we are, we are still your family members who gave birth to you and raised you."

"As for you, ever since you married into the Shen family, you've been siding with the Shen family every day, not even going back home. It's a shame that Mingyue has been pleading for you and explaining things to you every day, asking us not to be so heartless to you."

"But you are the most heartless one. You actually helped the Shen family to deal with your own brother, and watched this old woman beat your mother."

Xu Manyue raised her hand to wipe her tears, "Uncle Yang, please help me. I have already signed a severance agreement with them, and I asked you to be a witness."

"Listen to what they said today. It's clear they don't take that letter of severance seriously. It's clear they don't take you, the team leader, seriously."

The captain's face had already darkened. "Xu Shanping, do you think I, the captain, am dead?"

"The severance agreement is signed. Man Yue is no longer your daughter, nor is she a member of the Xu family."

"If you teach her a lesson again in the name of family, don't blame me for being rude."

He had given them a chance in the beginning, and both parties had agreed to sign the severance agreement. There was no reason for them to go back on their word after signing it.

Do they think that this piece of paper is just for fun?

The captain looked at Old Man Xu coldly, "You are the head of the Xu family. You have already signed the severance agreement. How dare you, relying on the name of family, point fingers at Man Yue and lecture her about everything?"

Old man Xu opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

They really had nothing to do with Xu Manyue anymore, but years of habit made them think for a moment that she was still the granddaughter who allowed themselves to be taught a lesson.

Xu Manyue's eyes became redder and redder. "Captain, for the Xu family's insults against me today, I hope they can write a self-criticism and apologize to me in front of the entire team at lunch tomorrow."

"I also hope that they can make it clear to everyone in this review that I no longer have any relationship with the Xu family."

"The Xu family has no right to lecture and insult me, let alone use the title of family and elders to suppress me."

The old lady cried even louder, "Captain, my daughter-in-law is so pitiful. She finally escaped from such a wolf-like family. You must make the decision for her."

"She had just married Jingming not long ago when he returned to the army. She was the only woman at home, helping Jingming take care of me, an old woman, every day."

"Tell me, in this area, how many daughters-in-law are as filial as the full moon? As a mother-in-law, I must protect her."

The captain was silent for a moment, then finally nodded, "Okay, let's do as Man Yue said."

"Tomorrow, the Xu family must write a self-criticism and publicly apologize to Man Yue in the cafeteria. Furthermore, they must never again insult or oppress her in the name of her family."

Old Man Xu's expression changed instantly. "No, Captain, this is absolutely not possible."

"Although we signed the severance agreement, we are still her elders by blood. How can an elder apologize to a younger person?"

"I would rather be beaten by the Shen family than apologize."
