At first, her mother asked them to contribute to household expenses, and the couple naturally agreed, giving her mother five yuan per person. However, as soon as Xiang Dong stuffed the money into her mother's hand, it was thrown onto the table.

"Are you trying to fetch a beggar? Who pays such a small amount for household expenses?"

"Now that you're part of the Zhu family, hand over all your wages and I'll manage them."

Zhu Wenying was shocked. "Mom, you're being too ruthless! We've handed over all the money, but what about my brother? Will he hand it over too?"

Jiang Fangru: "I didn't ask you to hand it over before you got married. Your younger brother isn't married yet, so of course he doesn't need to hand it over either."

Zhu Wenying: "How am I supposed to know if you secretly gave him this money? He's not married yet, and there will be a lot of expenses when he gets married. Are you going to use my and Xiangdong's salaries to subsidize my brother then?"

At this point, she became a little clearer-headed. Before, when she was at her husband's family home, she didn't care about things or money that weren't hers, so she often sent nice things to her own family home in a lavish manner.

But when it came to her own salary, she was unhappy. She and Xiang Dong wanted to save their money for their child. With the money in her own hands, she could buy whatever she wanted and give the child nice things. If she gave it to someone else, she would have to work herself to the bone to earn money, only to have to ask for it back later. She wasn't that stupid.

Jiang Fangru threw the rag in her hand onto the table. "What do you mean? What's wrong with giving your brother some subsidies? You're a married daughter who was kicked back with your husband and children, and you're staying at your parents' house and refusing to leave. Shouldn't you be subsidizing your brother?"

“Originally, after you got married, everything in our family would belong to your brother. He wouldn’t have to fight for it or squeeze in with you. Now look what’s happened. We were supposed to give up the room for my grandson, but you’re still not satisfied. No wonder your mother-in-law kicked you all out. You’re too greedy.”

Zhu Wenying kicked the stool away, saying, "We were kicked out because of you. If you hadn't said those things to me, how could I have dared to do this?"

Jiang Fangru retorted, "I've taught you so much, but I never taught you to hit your mother-in-law! What kind of daughter-in-law is so bold as to hit her mother-in-law? Ask your brother, if his wife hits me in the future, what will he do?"

Zhu Wenfei: "Then of course I'll stand by my mom's side. If she hits my mom, I'll beat her to death. Does she really think all men are like that good-for-nothing man like you, who doesn't utter a sound when his own mother is beaten and even helps his wife ruin his own family?"

Zhu Wenying shouted, "I'm doing this all for you!"

Jiang Fangru: "Don't talk nonsense. What good does it do us if you hit your mother-in-law? You even caused your brother to lose such a good marriage. It's already good that he's cursing at you. If he were really as unreasonable as some others, he would have kicked you out long ago."

“Let me tell you, this house will always be your brother’s house, not yours. If you’re smart, hand over your salaries and do all the housework, or get out of here.”

Zhu Wenying glared angrily at her mother. They looked more like enemies than mother and daughter.

"Why should I get out? I've already transferred my household registration here. I'm a member of the Zhu family. Why should I get out?"

Jiang Fangru laughed angrily, "Don't try to fool me. If you really piss me off, I'll be just like that old hag in your in-laws, I'll change the locks and see how you get in then?"

Zhu Wenying: "If you really do that, just you wait and see. I won't let you have it too easy. You're still trying to find a wife for my brother?"

"When the time comes, if you take a fancy to one, I'll tell them he's a scoundrel. If the girl insists on marrying him, I'll go to their house and make a scene every day!"

“I said, their daughter is shameless, she insists on sticking to my brother. As her older sister, I can’t stand her being with my brother. I can be a loving older sister, or I can say that it’s all Mom’s fault for sending me to cause trouble.”
