Shui Sheng's words were extremely cold.

He was so angry that he gritted his teeth, clenched one hand into a fist, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light. He didn't feel relieved until he had scolded the children until they were as weak as quails.

Don't think he doesn't know that Jie Herong is just taking advantage of being the son in the family, thinking that everything in the family will belong to them in the future, which is why he is so unscrupulous.

Looking at them, Shui Sheng said coldly, "This house is for your mother and me to retire in, not for you."

“Even if you get married and have children in the future, you will only have the right to live there. This house will not be allocated to you. Right now, your mother and I are supporting seven mouths to feed, so we can't save any money.”

"When you get married in the future, there will be a fixed dowry. If your wife's family asks for more, then you'll have to prepare it yourselves."

"Don't expect your mother and I to make plans for you. You're not even grown up yet, and you dare to be unfilial to your mother. What do you expect me to trust about you?"

"A few ungrateful wretches don't deserve good parents. It would be a waste for good parents to raise you."

He really showed no mercy with those words, making it clear that he didn't expect them to support him in his old age.

This made Xie Heping and the others turn green with embarrassment, especially Xie Heping, who was already 15 years old and understood everything he was supposed to.

The youngest triplets are all 10 years old. Children of this age are mischievous and know everything that happens in the village.

Now that Ruolan and her husband are clearly not expecting them to support them in their old age, what advantage do they have as boys?

Putting everything else aside, if these children truly ignored their parents, the gossip of the village women would drown them.

They grew up smoothly in this life and didn't suffer much, so they still had to save face.

Unlike my previous life, where I did all sorts of shameless things to make a living and survive, and wasn't afraid of gossip.

Heping quickly spoke up, "Dad, what are you saying? As your children, you raised me, and we will definitely be filial to you and take care of you in your old age! Please don't say anything out of spite."

Seeing his elder brother trying to curry favor with their parents, He Rong quickly joined in.

Shuisheng's actions startled the mother and son who were watching the commotion.

Those who know him understand he's disciplining his son, but those who don't might think he's seeking revenge on his father's killer.

Oh dear, looking at her son-in-law's fierce appearance, she wondered if they could even borrow the grain and money. Mi's mother secretly groaned, while Mi Yaozu had already hidden behind his mother in fear.

Mi Yaozu looked at his brother-in-law, who could be so cruel to his own child. He thought, "Wouldn't my brother-in-law, who isn't related to me by blood and isn't even close to me, be beaten to a pulp?" The thought made him tremble with fear.

Just then, she met Shui Sheng's fierce gaze, which terrified her so much that she almost wet her pants.

Shuisheng looked at the two timid-looking people and asked, "Who are you two? What are you doing in my house?"

Shuisheng knew who these two people were, of course, but his wife didn't intend to acknowledge her family, so why should he be polite to them?

Looking at her fierce-looking son-in-law, Mrs. Mi felt a chill run down her spine. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, "Um, son-in-law, I am Xiao Nan's mother, your mother-in-law whom you have never met."

She then pulled her son over and introduced him, saying, "This is your brother-in-law. We went through so much trouble to find Xiaonan just to come and acknowledge our kinship."

After saying that, she forced a smile at Shui Sheng that looked more like a grimace.

Shui Sheng rolled his eyes at her and said bluntly, "Grandma, you must be joking! At your age, you can't possibly have a child as big as my wife?"

His gaze then swept over Mi Yaozu, "Isn't that your son next to you, your grandson?"

“My wife is the niece of the Tang family in our county, not your daughter. Don’t try to claim kinship with me. I have plenty of relatives, and I don’t need you.”

Upon hearing his words, Mrs. Mi sensed something was amiss and quickly explained, "Son-in-law..."

"I'm not your son-in-law, don't call me that."

Mi Mu, who had just started talking, suddenly choked up. She wanted to throw a tantrum, but she was afraid that the man would kick her away.

Since he wouldn't listen to sweet talk, I'll try a different approach. "Comrade Jie, I'm Xiaonan's biological mother."

"If you're your son's biological mother, then go find your son. What are you doing at my house?"

"Your wife is my little boy."

"No."

"Yes."

“I already said no, my wife wasn’t married from your family.”

"But you did marry my son."

Annoyed to no end by her, Xie Shuisheng snapped, "Go find whoever went to your house to propose in the first place! Don't make me slap you. Get out of here!"

The mother and son were so frightened by him that they ran away as fast as they could, not daring to use any of their usual tantrums or tantrums. This man really knew how to hit someone.

Seeing that they had run away, Shui Sheng turned around and looked at the few little brats.

"You lot, go to the pigsty and face the wall to reflect on your behavior."

After he finished speaking, seeing that the others still didn't move, he went up again, intending to pick one person to make an example of. Everyone scattered like birds and beasts, obediently going to face the wall and reflect on their mistakes while smelling the stench of pig manure.

Mi Yaozu and his mother had just left Qinglin Brigade when he started complaining to his mother.

Things they dared not say just now, they now dare to say anything.

She can say the most offensive things. When she opens her mouth, she's a little whore; when she closes her mouth, she's a little bitch.

These two are quite audacious; they haven't even left the other person's territory yet, and they're already speaking so recklessly.

Who knew that as soon as the two left the village, they were put in sacks, and Mi Yaozu's hands were broken and all his teeth were knocked out.

Mi's mother was beaten so badly that it was unbearable to look at.

The Xie family's farce was nipped in the bud before it even began.

Looking at the village secretary's house over there, the secretary's wife was all smiles as she looked at the five jin of rice and two jin of pork on the table.

The secretary's wife said to her husband, "Our nephew Shuisheng is so generous. Every time he goes out, he brings us something nice."

The secretary felt uneasy about it. He believed that as a brigade cadre, one should be honest and upright, and accepting bribes was a violation of discipline.

"He's bribing me; he's afraid of being criticized for taking too much time off."

Although I know it's wrong to do this, I just can't bring myself to do it when I think about my precious grandson who hasn't eaten meat in a long time.

The secretary's wife didn't care about all that; she only saw the immediate benefits. "This can't be called a bribe. It's Shuisheng being filial to his second uncle. It's just a courtesy between relatives."

"You're too rigid. As long as it doesn't violate the major principles, it's fine to be a little more lenient when it comes to travel."

“Shuisheng went out to look for opportunities. After all, he has seven children at home. How can he support his family with only 10 work points a day?”

Shui Sheng left the brigade because he wanted to try his luck in the city and see if any factories were hiring.

It's only 1959 now, but in 60 years the household registration system will become stricter, and it won't be so easy for rural people to move to the city.
