Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

Qiu Yuefang asked, crying, "Can't you tell?"

"Your wife wants your mother dead!"

Lin Jingyao looked frustrated. "Well, you can't blame Hongmei entirely for this. Hongmei asked you to divide the family property before, but you absolutely refused..."

Before Lin Jingyao could finish speaking, Qiu Yuefang continued wailing, "Fine, fine, you want your mother to die too, you want your mother to die too..."

Lin Jingyao fell silent. "...I...okay, I won't bring this up again."

"My life is so hard, so hard..." Qiu Yuefang continued to sob.

No one in the Lin family cooked lunch.

By the afternoon, the family, who hadn't eaten or drunk anything, were too exhausted to even cry or curse.

So when Wang Xiaohui arrived home, the Lin family was completely silent.

In the evening, no one went out to cook.

Adults can manage, but children can't stand going hungry for a day.

Then she started crying and fussing because she was hungry.

In the end, it was Lin Jingyao who cooked the meal.

Seeing the oppressive atmosphere in the house, Lin Jinghui hesitated and went to Wang Xiaohui's door after dinner, when it got dark.

Wang Xiaohui saw him when she came out to get water.

Although startled, Wang Xiaohui didn't show any sign of "Something wrong?"

Lin Jinghui stammered, "You've heard about what happened at home, haven't you?"

Wang Xiaohui: ? ? ?

"what's up?"

In the afternoon, she overheard Wu Guifang mention that because the Lin family hadn't divided their property, only one person could go to work.

But Wang Xiaohui didn't want to get involved with the Lin family, so she pretended to be confused.

"Just...just work-related stuff."

“Our family hasn’t split up, so only one person can go and do the work.”

"Oh," Wang Xiaohui simply replied with a faint "oh."

Lin Jinghui immediately said, "Could you please put in a good word for me?"

Wang Xiaohui: "..."

"Ha," she sneered, "Are you joking?"

"No, I see that you have a good relationship with Gu's wife, and she takes good care of you."

Do you know why they took care of me?

"Because I didn't marry a good man," Wang Xiaohui still can't help but feel indignant when she talks about these things.

"Lin Jinghui, you are truly despicable."

As Wang Xiaohui spoke, she splashed the water in the basin and prepared to go back inside.

“I admit that my mother was wrong before, but it won’t be like that anymore. We are family, please help me,” Lin Jinghui said, pulling on Wang Xiaohui’s arm to prevent her from entering the house.

"How can I help?"

"Could you please ask your eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, and third sister-in-law to go and do some work too?"

"Ha," Wang Xiaohui laughed in anger, and "whoosh" broke free of her arm. "You have no shame, but I do."

"I don't have that kind of influence, so I can't do it. If you're so capable, go ask me."

"I'm not that cheap."

After Wang Xiaohui finished speaking, she warned Lin Jinghui, "Try pulling me again!"

Lin Jinghui did not pull him any further.

After Wang Xiaohui entered the house, she was so angry that she couldn't fall asleep until midnight.

The next day, Huang Hongmei got up early and said to Lin Jingyao, "Since there is only one spot, I am the eldest in the family, so it is my turn to do it."

But Qiu Yuefang also got up; she was prepared to do it herself.

Since there was only one spot available, she naturally wanted to go herself, since she could keep the money firmly in her own hands.

She can get other things out of someone else's pocket.

As for giving it to Huang Hongmei, that's even more impossible, because Huang Hongmei fought with her yesterday.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both got up, each taking a pot to cook.

After dinner, everyone went to the Gu family's house to report for duty.

Everyone else had their tasks assigned smoothly, but for the two of them, Wen Tang stopped them, "Didn't you two discuss it? Who's going to do it?"

Huang Hongmei pointed to herself and said, "Me, I'll do it. I'm the eldest daughter-in-law, I'm young, I'll do it."

Huang Hongmei thought to herself, "I am younger after all. Does Wen Tang not hire young people, but instead hire someone as old as Qiu Yuefang?"

The truth is that Wen Tang didn't want either of them, otherwise she wouldn't have made things so difficult yesterday.

What would happen if we separated the family property a day later?

it's nothing.

But this one-day division of the family property gave Wen Tang a legitimate reason not to let Qiu Yuefang do any work, so how could Wen Tang not seize the opportunity!

Originally, Wen Tang was thinking that when Qiu Yuefang came to work in the future, she would find an excuse to fire her, otherwise she would feel disgusted to have someone like that earning her money.

Who would have thought? Who would have thought she dug her own grave?

Then she would add two handfuls of soil and bury her on the spot.

As soon as Huang Hongmei finished speaking, Qiu Yuefang immediately said, "The household registration book is with me, and I'm in charge of the household, so our family has agreed that I will come."

Huang Hongmei immediately exploded, "Why should I?"

She directly shoved Qiu Yuefang, saying, "You old hag, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"You're deliberately not separating the family because you don't want us to make money, so you can torment us for the rest of our lives, right?"

"I'll fight you to the death..."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started fighting again.

Wen Tang silently closed the courtyard gate, letting the two of them do as they pleased.

Not long after the two of them finished their work, the wives of the second and third sons returned. Seeing the two of them standing at the Gu family's door, they realized that the two of them had indeed come to work secretly.

However, judging from the results, it seems they didn't manage to do it.

The wives of the second and third sons breathed a sigh of relief.

They went back to their parents' homes yesterday and told them what had happened. Their parents said, "What if the job gets taken over by the eldest son's family now that you're gone?"

So before dawn, the two of them returned from their respective parents' homes.

When I couldn't find anyone at home, I rushed over to Gu's house, and sure enough, both my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were there!

But it was clear that Qiu Yuefang had no intention of letting Huang Hongmei do it.

After the second and third sons' wives separated the two fighters, the second son's wife spoke up, "Mother, sister-in-law, please stop fighting. How about I go and do it?"

Before Huang Hongmei could spit in her face, she added, "I'll share the money I earn with you all!"

The third son's family immediately objected, saying, "Then let me go, and I'll give you a share of the money."

The second child's family was unhappy, saying, "I'm older than you, so if anyone should go, it should be me."

Huang Hongmei: Then what am I?

So, under Huang Hongmei's gaze, the second son's wife squeezed Qiu Yuefang's hand, hoping that Qiu Yuefang, the mother-in-law, would speak up for her.

Before Qiu Yuefang could say anything, the third son's wife said, "Mom, if you're biased, we can't live like this. I... I'll move my things out tomorrow and get a divorce."

She pouted as she spoke, "Anyway, I have no work to do. Whichever man I marry, he'll just be a steamed bun or porridge."

Huang Hongmei couldn't take it anymore. "I'm getting a divorce too," she said, crying. "I'm being bullied every day. What's the point of living like this?"

"My life is so miserable!"

Zhong Meixian opened the courtyard gate and came out, "Why are you howling like a ghost in front of our house?"

"Go howl in your own yard if you want."

"Pah, what bad luck to do so early in the morning."

Huang Hongmei fell silent after being scolded.

Qiu Yuefang left awkwardly first.

Huang Hongmei and the others had no choice but to follow.

After getting home, we discussed it from left to right but couldn't come to a conclusion.

Finally, Huang Hongmei and her two sisters-in-law came up with a feasible plan: each person would work for ten days, and the wages would be split equally.

All three of them thought this was a good idea, better than having no money at all.
