Chapter 46, Go to see the pig pen

Mrs. Wu is really worried about her parents' family, and still wants to go back and have a look.

Then Ms. Wang is pregnant. What will happen to her later and she won’t be able to survive?

Mrs. Liang saw how anxious she was, thought about it, and reluctantly agreed.

“Okay, then you can come back quickly after only one day. Sister Ying will look for you when she goes to bed at night.”

Wu Shi said yes and got up to pack her things.

Seeing that she was about to go out, Sister Ying immediately crawled to her legs, grabbed her thighs and asked her to hug her.

But Mrs. Wu said, "Mom has to go to your grandmother's house for something. You should be good at home and I will hug you when she comes back."

Sister Ying was worried that her mother would go back alone, so she followed her no matter what.

                      

The little chubby hands tightly grasped Wu's trouser legs, with a pitiful little round face.

Mrs. Wu felt soft-hearted at the first sight, and squatted down, trying to coax her, "Be good, and I'll make some buns for you."

Sister Ying didn't believe it. She hugged Mrs. Wu and buried her in her chest intimately, acting like a "mother".

Mrs. Wu originally wanted to take her little hand away, but she curled her lips, looked sad, opened her mouth, and cried loudly.

   Where has Wu seen her fighting?

 Daughters usually don’t cry, how could I have cried so miserably.

As soon as she felt soft-hearted, she planned to take her there.

Old Mrs. Liang frowned and disagreed, "She's still young, why are you carrying her there? It will scare her later."

Mrs. Wu sighed and explained, "She is now at the age where she is clingy. She will look for me when I walk away for a while. She will even grab my ears before I sleep at night. I am afraid that if I cannot come back at night, she will Noisy."

Mrs. Liang frowned, not happy.

"Your mother's house is in such a mess. If you carry her over, you won't have time to take care of her."

Mrs. Wu hurriedly said, "I asked my mother to help keep an eye on her. I won't let her see anything she shouldn't see. Don't worry."

Wu’s mother is soft-hearted and not good at quarreling, so it’s just right for her to see Sister Ying.

 Old Mrs. Liang laughed angrily at her.

 “Are you going back to quarrel with someone?”

Mrs. Wu hurriedly said, "No, no, just go back and have a look. If nothing happens, we will come back."

Old Mrs. Liang has accepted so many favors from the Wu family and eaten a lot of their food. It seems unjustifiable if she does not let the Wu family go back.

 Finally, he thought about it and said, "Okay, just this time. If the Wang family quarrels again next time, you are not allowed to go back. This is your brother and sister-in-law's business, so don't get involved."

 Wu thanked her, "Thank you, mother~"

Mrs. Liang didn't like to be sensational. She waved her hand arrogantly and told her, "Go early and come back early. Take Xiaohong with you. If it's too late at night, come back tomorrow."

There are basically no thieves in Ningxi Town, because no one is so poor that they can’t afford food. The town has always been peaceful, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.

But due to Mrs. Wu's beauty, Mrs. Liang was afraid that she would encounter some bad guys on the road, so she told her not to come back by carriage at night, but to wait until dawn.

 Wu is not afraid of this.

 From Ningxi Town to their Wu family, they took the main road, which was very safe.

Moreover, the people here are very simple, and there are very few robberies.

 She came out of Mrs. Liang's house, simply packed a few clothes, hugged Sister Ying and went to ride the carriage.

 The carriage was still that of an acquaintance, and Xiaohong went there too.

 When the carriage arrived at Wu's house, a loud quarrel could be heard outside the door.

 It seems that Mrs. Wang is crying.

 “You are the head of the family, how can you have no money? I think you just don’t trust me!”

Boss Wu said with his heart, I just don’t trust you.

 But this cannot be said openly, because this woman is going to make trouble again.

He only said in a roundabout way, "The one hundred and fifty taels I borrowed from your brother last time is all my wealth. Go to the village and ask who can afford one hundred and fifty taels."

These days, you can buy a big yard with just one hundred taels. People in the village have at most twenty or thirty taels of silver.

Those who can afford one hundred taels are considered wealthy.

Of course Mr. Wu still has private money, but he won’t talk about it.

 Otherwise, if Mr. Wang finds out, he will definitely try his best to get the money again.

 He now begins to pretend to be poor.

"We haven't separated yet. The one hundred and fifty taels I have are all for my two sons to study. Now your brother has borrowed them all. What will happen to the children's studies in the future?"

"Go and give me the silver now and ask for it back. You can also get fifty taels first!"

Wang was stunned, obviously not believing it.

“How is it possible? Where did the children get their education this year?”

Mr. Wu said angrily, "Of course I borrowed it from my parents! They all made notes, and I will have to pay them back in the future if I earn any money."

Wang didn’t believe it, “You are father and son, how can you care about this little money?”

 In her mind, Mr. Wu is the eldest son, and everything in the family should belong to the two of them.

 So Mr. Wu’s money was also considered by Mrs. Wang to be hers.

Boss Wu said speechlessly, "You think so. My father is very dissatisfied with me now. If my fourth brother is admitted to be a scholar in the future, just wait and I will be kicked out of the house sooner or later."

 This is of course false.

 But Boss Wu felt that it would be a good idea for her not to let Wang suffer some hardship.

Wang still didn't believe it, "Kicked out of the house? Why? I gave them grandchildren and you made money for them, why did you drive us away?"

Boss Wu said angrily, "Why? Why do you want to poach their money?"

"Which parent-in-law can take out the money to support the daughter-in-law's parents' family? If you make trouble every day, my parents have already had enough of you. When the time comes, I will be implicated by you and will either divorce you or kick me out too. You will be happy!"

Wang was stunned for a moment by his yelling, and was a little scared.

"I…"

  She thought that since she had given birth to two sons for the Wang family, it would be impossible for her to be divorced.

 But these days, her parents-in-law really didn't want to see her and wouldn't let her go to the table to eat.

Even when they met on a regular basis, the old couple didn't even look at her, and then Ms. Wang started to panic.

“Then tell your parents, we are the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law in the family, how can you kick us out?”

Boss Wu sneered, "Why not? I am not the only son they have."

 The old couple of the Wu family who were eavesdropping in the next room:…

 Good guy, the eldest son is not stupid either, he already knows how to use his wits.

Mother Wu smiled and said, "Old man, I think my son is right. Instead of letting Mrs. Wang worry about the family's property every day, it is better to pretend to divide them and let Mrs. Wang go out to endure hardships, so that she will know how to restrain herself."

Mr. Wu thought this was a good idea and immediately agreed.

Mrs. Wu was standing at the door at this moment. She also heard what her eldest brother and sister-in-law said. She came in with Sister Ying in her arms and knocked on the door first.

 “Brother, I’m back.”

When Boss Wu heard his sister’s voice, he immediately came out to take a look.

“Ning’er, why are you back?”

Wu lied, "Oh, my fourth brother said that the weather is getting hotter, so he asked me to bring him two pairs of spring clothes."

As soon as Wu Mu heard this, she hurried out of the house. "Do you want some clothes? Okay, I'll take them from him right now."

 When it comes to her son, Mother Wu naturally handles it personally.

Mrs. Wang felt disgusted when she saw how kind her mother-in-law was to her brother-in-law. She felt that her parents-in-law loved her younger son the most, and she suddenly felt bad.

Mr. Wu looked at her face and spoke solemnly, "Boss, the sow in the back mountain is about to give birth. I'm afraid that the long-term workers will be too busy. You and Mrs. Wang can go and watch."

Wang was shocked, "What? You want me to see the pig pen?"

 She is a pregnant woman, why is she going to the pigsty?
