Grandma Li didn't even raise an eyebrow from beginning to end, she just stood there. Although she didn't know a word, she had the calm demeanor of a veteran.She has lived for decades, and she has never seen anyone like her, her son-in-law, who has high eyes and low hands and thinks too highly of himself.Because of her status as a yamen official, she looked down on the Li family. She really thought she was too old to see it.It would be fine if he really looked down on his family from beginning to end. This could also be said to be noble.But besides pretending to be the boss in front of them, he also had to take their belongings.When we left before, there was no time when the oxcarts were not filled with eggs, dried vegetables, and those mountain products that were dried in the autumn.

Before, I just felt sorry for my daughter, but now it seems that this daughter is also very distressed, so it's better not to feel sorry for her.

Now that they have decided to let it all go, how can Grandma Li still look good to the couple?
"I will put my words here today. Our Li family has never begged you once before, and we will never ask you in the future. Li Xiaofang, you are now a mother of two children, not a child anymore. You have to defend yourself for what you said. You are responsible for what you have done. It’s good that I am your biological mother, but now you have married into another family, and now I think you are more willing to listen to your husband, so that’s fine. In the future, unless you are sick or die, don’t come to your door again. That’s it. Our Li family can’t afford to have relatives like yours.”

Grandma Li looked at her daughter with a face full of disbelief, but now she still found helplessly that this daughter had not realized her mistake until now, but her eyes were full of resentment. What was she resenting?Are you blaming yourself as a mother for not saying these things in front of your son-in-law?Then why didn't she think about whether there was anything wrong with her previous attitude towards these brothers, sisters and her mother?
It seems that he has loved her too much all these years and has indulged her to no end!

"Boss, send them out. Bring back the two packs of snacks and put them on the cattle cart. Our family is not short of this kind of food now."

"Mom, how could you do this to me? Have you never thought about what will happen to me when I go back? You are trying to kill me, mother!"

Li Xiaomei shouted at the top of her voice, shaking the world. Although she squeezed out a few tears, everyone could see the resentment in her eyes.Even Li Zheng was really annoyed now.In his opinion, making mistakes is not terrible. What is terrible is that after making a mistake, he still does not realize where he went wrong.The little sister could only see that her mother spoke too harshly to her, but she didn't think about what she had done before.

At this time, Grandma Li said loudly, holding back the pain in her heart.

"You are the right wife your family is marrying, and you have given birth to a son and a daughter. You have already established yourself. Is there anything you can't live with?"

Just because Grandma Li didn't tell her, it didn't mean she didn't know. Her daughter was not an economical person.Li Xiaomei didn't say how much money and foundation her husband's family had saved over the years, but Grandma Li could also get a glimpse of it from her daughter's dress.

This is what makes Grandma Li feel most uncomfortable.If the previous attitude towards her mother's family was because Li Xiaomei had not established a firm foothold in her husband's family and had to look at her mother-in-law's face for everything, it would be fine. But now that Xiaofang has clearly established a firm foothold, she still has the same attitude as before.In fact, it can be seen that it is not just the in-laws who look down on their Li family, but even Xiaofang looks down on the family where she grew up.In the past, I always felt that I had to save some respect for others, not to mention that this was my daughter who moved out of the family, but now it seems that this person is just getting more and more indulgent.

At this time, Grandma Li didn't even want to say anything. Li Zheng took her young and strong sons and nephews and drove the family out in a few seconds. They even gave away the ten cents a box of cakes and fruits they brought back. Throw it back.what?The ingredients they make in-house are better than this, and the portions are plenty.Obviously I look down on their casual purchases.They were not arguing about the quality of these gifts. The daughter-in-law of Aunt Wang's house next door was also poor.But when I returned home, I gave each of my parents a piece of clothing made by myself.Even if it's not a good thing, the daughter's care for her parents can be seen in every stitch.

Every time Li Xiaomei leaves from her parents' home, the amount of money she takes for food and drinks has already exceeded this amount.After so many years, it has not changed.It’s not that my sister-in-law has no objections, but because Grandpa Li and Grandma Li are still here, she can’t say much.Now seeing that Grandma Li was dissatisfied, her mother-in-law's sister-in-law didn't say much, but there was still a hint of pleasure in her eyes.This shows that Li Xiaomei is really unpopular in her family.

Now that spring is about to begin, the young girls and wives in the village are walking around. If the Li family makes such a big noise, how could the neighbors not come out to take a look?Facing the strange looks from her uncles and sisters-in-law who had watched her grow up, Li Xiaomei hid her face and cried, got into the bullock cart, and quickly called her husband to leave.

Li Xiaomei cried and cried all the way, and her tears never stopped.Until I left the confines of Qingshui Village, I still couldn't control my tears, and at the same time I still felt uncontrollable grievances.Her husband also looked ugly, and he never expected that he would be treated like this.When had he come to his father-in-law's house before and not been warmly welcomed by the whole family?I didn't expect to be treated like this this time.Something is wrong, there must be something wrong here.

Her husband, Hu Lin, thought for a long time and then made a firm statement.

"Something's wrong. My father-in-law must have hid it from us to save trouble. Do you remember that when we came here before, my father-in-law's family was very nervous. Even the candied fruits eaten during the Chinese New Year had less sugar and more noodles, and sometimes they were thick noodles. But this Have you ever seen it? The sugar-coated fruits on the table were obviously deep-fried, oily, fragrant and sweet. Just selling those sugar-coated fruits outside would cost at least [-] yuan per box. Where did your family get so much money to buy oil and sugar?"

Li Xiaomei had only been sad before, but now she also noticed something was wrong.She stopped sobbing, rolled her eyes, and spoke thoughtfully.

"When you said that, I also found something wrong. My sister-in-law was cooking just now, and I smelled a strong aroma of oil. If this happened in the past, my sister-in-law would not be willing to put so much oil for us to eat. Also, did you pay attention to the yard? The stone mill inside is so big. It’s impossible for my mother and the others to eat white rice and noodles every day. Things that are not commonly used are usually placed at the east end of the village. Occasionally, the stone mill is used when needed. It has nothing to do. Why do you put such a heavy thing in the yard? It takes up space for no reason." (End of Chapter)
