As soon as they entered the compound, Hu Yingying shared her snacks with her good friend Chen Lingling. The two children leaned against each other, whispering to each other about something.

Although Hu Bin had been to the police station, he wasn't scared at all. When he saw what they were eating, he tried to rush up and snatch it, but Hu Jie grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back into the house.

He cried loudly inside the house, Hu Jie was being scolded by his parents inside the house, and Chen Lingling was almost scared to tears outside, and even choked on her own tears.

Hu Yingying whispered to her, "My dad hates them too. Although he didn't tell me, I can tell."

“My dad always smiles at people he doesn’t dislike, but most of the time his mouth turns down when he’s with them, like this.” She made a face, and before Chen Lingling could even look at it, she started laughing.

"I hate them so much. They look at me so fiercely. I've been so scared these past few days that I don't dare to go out alone."

Chen Lingling deeply agrees; she's quite timid too, and her father always calls her a little cat.

I miss my dad a little. I wonder when he'll come back.

Chen Lingling has never been a tattletale, otherwise Dong Chunmiao wouldn't always take her to her parents' home. In Grandma Xia's words, she's a chatterbox; no matter what grievances she suffers, she won't tell her family.

After Dong Chunmiao left, she would occasionally talk about it, but only with her father; she still wouldn't tell anyone else.

Chen Xiangnan was also very worried about this.

If you do a good deed, shouldn't you shout it out loud so everyone knows you did it? That way, you'll be given priority consideration for any future rewards.

If something bad happens, you have to shout it out loud, otherwise people won't know how much you've been wronged.

Unless it's bad news that you'll regret talking about it, or good news that you have to say at the right time.

Also, you should never shout about doing something bad; you have to pretend you don't know anything. If someone asks you, you have to be even more surprised than they are.

Otherwise, wouldn't being too honest lead to being bullied?

Chen Xiangnan always felt that he had to teach his daughter properly, otherwise she would definitely not have a comfortable life in the future.

The two went to Grandma Yin's house to eat. It was too dangerous outside; they might get robbed while eating.

That night, the Zhu family was far from peaceful.

Zhu Wenying felt that her mother had really changed a lot. Before, she always stood by her side and felt sorry for her mother's hardships in her husband's family. But now that she was living in her own parents' home, her mother was finding fault with her at every turn.

Her mother had previously told her not to do anything at her in-laws' house, and that she should let them know she wasn't the kind of virtuous woman right after getting married. She listened to her mother and indeed had a good few years.

If her mother-in-law hadn't suddenly exploded, she might have lived like that for the rest of her life.

Her mother also said that she and her husband should keep their salaries in their own hands. If they handed them over to her in-laws, who knows where the money would go? They wouldn't be able to get it back later.

Moreover, after she gave birth to Baoyuan, her mother said that having a grandson would give her more confidence, and she could ask her in-laws for more benefits, since he was the first grandson in the Chen family.

Hearing these words made her feel like her whole family had been kicked out of the village.

Ever since their household registrations were actually transferred to the Zhu family a few days ago, her mother's words have changed.

For example, expecting the young couple to care for their parents and younger brother is difficult for them.

For example, she feels more at ease having them hand over their wages.

For example, since we're all adults, of course we should take on housework; isn't that a necessity?

Anyway, everything was the opposite of what she had done at her in-laws' house, and Zhu Wenying quickly figured it out.

Her mother wanted her to cause trouble for her husband's family, hoping to gain some benefits and even some credit. But once their own interests were involved, they would immediately turn their backs on her.

"Mom, I'm pregnant and not feeling well. Xiangdong is working overtime and hasn't come home yet. Can you wash the dishes first? I'll have him do it for you next week when it's your turn." Zhu Wenying looked exhausted. Since returning home, she has had more and more things to do.
