Chapter 32

Bai Ying casually replied, "I just went to change the dressing for a patient."

"Okay, okay, let's go now." Huang Xia was holding an empty basket, looking impatient.

Bai Ying suddenly felt confused.

What did Huang Xia do when she returned to her parents' home this morning? Why was she so anxious?

Although she didn't know what Huang Xia was planning, Bai Ying wasn't afraid. She opened the door to the clinic and said, "Wait a minute. I'll put the medicine box back and leave."

Bai Ying entered the health room and placed the medicine box on the table. Then she opened the box, took out something from it and put it in her sleeve.

Because the lid of the medicine box blocked her view, Huang Xia didn't see what Bai Ying took out. She just thought Bai Ying was taking money out of the medicine box and didn't take it to heart.

The commune was just over ten miles away from Liushu Village. Normally, even if Bai Ying and Huang Xia walked slowly, they would still arrive there in an hour. Plus, it wouldn't take them long to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth. As long as nothing went wrong, they would definitely be able to get back before dark.

However, now that Huang Xia is on the road, it's impossible for nothing to happen...

Huang Xia was quiet for half the journey, but when they were almost at the commune, she couldn't help herself and said, "Yingzi, don't think I'm too talkative. When I first married you, you were still a child, but now you're a grown-up girl. How can you still be as willful as when you were little?"

Bai Ying asked in confusion, "What does sister-in-law mean by this?"

Huang Xia gritted her teeth and told the truth, "Which sister-in-law is like you? She works but doesn't contribute money home, and still lets the two elders support her? Which girl doesn't get married and exchange the betrothal gift for the family as soon as she grows up?"

Although Bai Ying also has the surname Bai, she instinctively feels that the Bai family is not the home of Bai Ying, her daughter, but the home of her three sons. It is okay for the two brothers Bai Mo and Bai Shuangliang to compete with her for resources, but what about Bai Ying's sister-in-law?

She also has sisters and brothers. She and several of her sisters get married as soon as they reach the age, and use the betrothal gifts they receive to help their brothers get married. Everyone does this, so of course Bai Ying has to do the same!

Whose daughter would marry a labor camp inmate?

Bai Ying didn't show any anger on her face. Instead, she smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you can't insist that other families treat their daughters as non-human beings just because your family doesn't treat you as a human being?"

Huang Xia is not very old, not even thirty years old, but her head is full of old ideas. She is completely different from the Bai family.

Such a daughter-in-law naturally could not be chosen by Bai Ying's family, but by Old Lady Bai.

At that time, the Bai family had not yet split up. The money and food that Bai Maozhong and several brothers earned from work points throughout the year had to be handed over to Old Lady Bai for management. The eldest brother originally had a girlfriend who was his elementary school classmate. The girl's family wanted a dowry of 50 yuan. Old Lady Bai was stingy with money, so she took a fancy to Huang Xia, whose dowry only wanted 20 yuan.

The eldest brother was too honest and loyal, so he let Old Lady Bai make all the decisions on important matters. My parents were not the kind of people who were picky about their daughter-in-law, so they did not object to this marriage. As a result, Huang Xia became a troublemaker as soon as she got married.

There is no such thing as a cheap product.

Among so many people in the family, only my second brother can treat Huang Xia.

Huang Xia glared at Bai Ying angrily, "You! Sister-in-law, I'm just being kind. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but how dare you talk back!"

Bai Ying blinked and feigned innocence, saying, "I told you to shut up out of kindness. After all, we're a family, and even if you say something wrong, I won't do anything to you. But if you say the same thing to outsiders, what if they slap you in the face?"

"..."

After being repeatedly criticized, Huang Xia couldn't help but grit her teeth, and the hatred in her heart deepened infinitely.

The sister-in-law is so sharp-tongued. Wait until she marries her cousin and sees that she won't let him beat her sister-in-law until she crawls on the ground! After all, Huang Xia has been taught since she was a child that it is natural for men to beat women. What kind of man is he if he doesn't beat his wife?

Perhaps because Bai Ying had criticized her too harshly, Huang Xia finally stopped saying nonsense on the way.

The two came to the commune.
