Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top
Chapter 83 Asking for Benefits
Mother Zhao didn't take Mother Yang seriously at all. This was in Futian Village, and she was teaching her own daughter-in-law a lesson. Not to mention a few words, even if she beat her to death, what would happen?
It's just that I have a kind heart but I'm still wasting my breath talking here.
The one who should feel ashamed now should be Yang's mother. The Yang family raised such a daughter, so she would not give Yang's mother any face. Besides, it was Yang Xiuying who insisted on marrying her son. Just for this reason, she should be superior to Yang's mother.
Mother Yang said calmly, "My daughter has been well-educated and well-mannered since she was young. Even if she has changed since she came to your Zhao family, it was because you forced her to do so! If you are not satisfied with my daughter, you can go to the second son and ask him to divorce my daughter."
Aunt Wu was also here to help. She put down the vegetables in her hand and said to Zhao's mother, "If you want to find the second son of the Zhao family, I can help you summon the soul and call Zhao Laoer up to ask him questions."
Hearing that they were going to summon the second son's soul, the flesh on Zhao's mother's face trembled, her face turned pale, and her eyes became confused. The memory of the past few days was still fresh in her mind, and she said in a trembling voice: "No... no need... He is satisfied with Xiuying, how could he be willing to divorce, and besides, it is not reasonable to divorce after someone dies.
I was just joking, we are all satisfied with Xiuying."
Yang's mother turned to Xiuying and said, "How could you not inform your mother-in-law about such a big thing as building a house? I believe your mother-in-law is concerned about you. Look, she brought your sister-in-law with her."
Then Yang's mother said to Zhao's mother and Tian Guilan, "It's rare that you still think of coming to help, my dear relatives. The chicken coop needs to be moved to a new place. You should clean up the chicken manure in the coop first!
My mother-in-law is very efficient, so you are the most suitable person to do it. Xiuying's sister-in-law seems to be a capable person as well, so please go to the back mountain and fetch a few buckets of water so that we can cook."
Mother Zhao and Tian Guilan exchanged glances. Mother Yang was assigning them tasks. Mother Zhao looked at the seventy or eighty chickens in the chicken coop. The chicken manure alone must have filled several large baskets. She wasn't very agile, so cleaning the chicken coop would be like asking her to die. Besides, how could a mother-in-law help her daughter-in-law with chores?
Tian Guilan, her legs trembling, looked at the two large buckets placed in front of her. She could barely walk, and they asked her to fetch water. What if she fell into the water? These people had no good intentions. She was Xiuying's sister-in-law, how could she help her with the work?
Mother Zhao: "My dear relatives, you don't know. I'm old now, and my arms and legs hurt all over. I guess it's because I was tired from raising children when I was young. Back then, we didn't have such a good life like Xiuying. After giving birth, we only had a few days of rest before we had to take care of the children, cook for the whole family, and do farm work.
Now that I’m old and have suffered from a lifetime of illness, ah… I’m destined to be tired… Now when I want to help Xiuying with something, my hands and feet don’t have the strength to do it anymore.”
Tian Guilan looked at Zhao's mother. What could she say? She couldn't complain in front of her mother-in-law about not taking good care of herself after the confinement period, right?
"Xiuying, it's not that I don't want to help you with the work. It's just that Mom needs someone by her side. You don't know it when you're not at home. Mom is old and not in good health now, so she needs someone to be there at all times... I'm afraid if I leave someone..."
As Tian Guilan said this, she wiped away her tears. Mother Zhao glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law. Why did her words sound so awkward?
Xiuying pretended not to understand and asked, "Mom, sister-in-law, if you are not going to help, what are you doing here?"
Several aunts who were helping with cooking followed Xiuying's words and asked
"Sister-in-law Zhao, now that you're here, why don't you help your daughter-in-law with something?"
"Yes, sister-in-law, back then, who really took confinement seriously?"
"Sister-in-law, I've assigned you all the tasks, but you're not doing them. What's the matter?"
"Sister-in-law, everyone is busy. If you really have nothing to do, go back and rest."
Mother Zhao smiled awkwardly, "Isn't my body still not fully recovered? I heard Xiuying was building a house, so I came to take a look.
I thought of inviting a master to make a big bed for everyone who would bring honor to the family, as well as a few big round tables, stools and chairs.
Xiuying, I remember that your uncles are all craftsmen, and their skills in making furniture are first-class. Since you are building a house, you must make furniture, so you might as well make some for your nephews.
Your eldest brother has lost his job in the city, and now the family relies on the few acres of land for food. Your nephews have grown up and are about to reach the age to get married. As their aunt, you should buy some furniture for them to get married in advance.
They will definitely remember your kindness.”
Xiuying has always known that her mother-in-law favors the Zhao family's precious grandsons, but she was still shocked at this moment. She built the house and made furniture, so why should she also make furniture for the ones who brought honor to the family and made them rich and powerful?
Their parents are still alive, not dead. Besides, the eldest brother and his wife have always been mean to them and the girls. Even the rich and powerful Guangyao family not only treated the girls badly, but also pushed the sixth and seventh daughters off the hill last time. This is the real viciousness.
Mother Zhao continued to herself, "It would be best if we could build a complete set of furniture, such as wardrobes and dressers. Your eldest brother and his wife are easy to talk to. Once the new furniture is built and the family becomes rich and famous, we can give the furniture they use to the maids."
In the future, our Zhao family will need a few young men to carry on the family line. We can just use the old ones from these girls, which will save us a lot of money."
After saying this, Zhao's mother glanced at Tian Guilan.
Tian Guilan was daydreaming. The big house and furniture built by Yang Xiuying would belong to her son in the future. She could get such a great bargain without spending a penny. She must have been born lucky.
Mother Zhao nudged Tian Guilan with her elbow, and Tian Guilan came back to her senses and continued, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, the children will all be filial to you in the future. After all, we are a family. We want to bring honor to our family and make them rich and powerful. If you have a crush on someone, just tell me."
Tian Guilan's smile was creepy. How could she bear to let her precious son become Yang Xiuying's son-in-law? She said this just to calm her down first.
Yang Xiuying's face was stern. "Mother, sister-in-law, I have already asked my fourth uncle to make a set of decent furniture for each of the girls. Not only will they have their own furniture, but they will also have their own rooms. I don't have any extra wood here for your precious grandchildren.
If you want to do it for them, you can ask someone to go up the mountain and chop wood. Fourth Uncle has taken my job and has no time to do other things, so you can ask another carpenter to do it for them.
They are your precious grandchildren, so you must be willing to spend some money on them. After all, the Zhao family will be handed over to them in the future."
