Chapter 262 Sisters Break Up [Request Full Order]
My mother-in-law was quite polite in her words.
She didn't start by asking Lu Yang, her son-in-law, to do this and that and to pick someone up for her as she said.
It sounds pretty good.
Sometimes, people are just like this, all they need is an attitude.
For the same thing, if you raise the tone too high and use a loud voice, people will feel uncomfortable and will be unwilling to help you.
Even if it is done, there will still be resentment in the heart.
But if you say it in a tactful way, even if people find it troublesome, they will generally still help you do it.
The above will be particularly effective if you speak and interact with friends, relatives, and loved ones in this way.
This is what Lu Yang is like now.
As for Yin Mingzhu, that woman, he didn't want to provoke her at all. He wished to stay away from her, preferably a million miles away. In the future, the two of them should never meet again to avoid any trouble.
However, you still have to listen to your mother-in-law. She has put down her status to discuss with you, and she is not making any mandatory demands on you. Besides, you happen to be in the city. If you refuse at this time, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of your mother-in-law?
Oh, and one more thing.
That’s what Lu Yang thought.
"If I just refuse like this, my mother-in-law won't blame me, but she will definitely tell that stupid woman Yin Mingzhu. After that stupid woman knows, won't she think that I'm afraid of her and I'm deliberately avoiding her?"
"Tch, who's afraid of whom?"
"I'm a big boss, I've already developed such a thick skin, how can I be afraid of a student girl like her?"
It was such a happy decision.
"Mom, don't worry. It's just to pick someone up. My father-in-law doesn't need to come. It's troublesome to run to the city dozens of kilometers in the hot weather. I'll just do it for the sake of convenience. When the time comes, I will definitely bring the person back to you safely."
"Okay, okay, thank you. Thank you for troubling me, son-in-law."
My mother-in-law on the other side of the phone was laughing so hard that she almost couldn't stop.
Son-in-law is still the best.
Unlike the old man, who only cares about the business in the furniture factory and is busy all day long, he never has time to rest and doesn't even have the patience to say a few words to his mother. When asked to pick up his daughter, he has a car anyway.
What did he say?
"My car is a truck, used to transport furniture. Now I am too busy to handle the business in the factory. The tires are wearing out all day. I am losing a lot of money. Why do you want me to go so far to pick someone up?"
"Isn't Yang in the city?"
"My son-in-law is also my apprentice. If he doesn't help me share my worries at this time, who will?"
"Are you crazy?"
Yes, I am crazy.
Ma Xiulan was so angry that her teeth were itching: "The old man must have forgotten that Yang was going to marry the eldest girl before, and now that he has married the younger girl, he should keep a distance from the eldest girl. We, as parents, have not even started to advise and remind them, so how can we take the initiative and create opportunities for these two to meet alone?"
To put it bluntly, what if the old love rekindles?
Yes, Yang boy didn't have much prospects before, and couldn't compare with our Yin family. So when the eldest daughter was admitted to university, they looked down on others. But now the child has become successful, much better off than our Yin family. What if the eldest girl suddenly changes her mind and becomes wise? What do you think we should do?
Because of this incident, every time she caught Old Man Yin, she would scold her husband, telling him to stay vigilant, pay attention to the development of the situation, and be on guard against it.
But these words obviously fell on deaf ears.
"Oh, I hope I'm overthinking it."
It was still the small building of the village committee, she said somewhat melancholy after hanging up the phone.
Her sister was standing next to her.
That is Ma Xiumei, the women’s director of the village committee.
Ma Xiumei asked curiously, "Sis, since you already have this worry, why did you make this call?"
Ma Xiulan shook her head and said to her sister, "If I don't make this call, it will show that I am guilty. I can't control the affairs of young people anyway, so let them handle it themselves."
Guilty conscience is nothing.
The key point is that the girl is coming back soon. If a man feels guilty, especially when he is old, it is easy for him to show his true colors. By then, he will worry about nothing and create trouble.
Ma Xiulan herself had never thought of this.
These were the original words of Old Man Yin, warning her not to let her imagination run wild, not to make trouble for no reason, and not to interfere blindly in order to appear capable. Don't forget, how did she come up with this stupid idea of getting her son-in-law drunk and sending him to her youngest daughter's bed?
It almost ruined everything.
After hearing this, Ma Xiumei looked at her elder sister differently. She couldn't help but say, "Sister, I didn't expect you to have such a high level. I was just trying to persuade you. You are right. As elders, it is best for us not to worry about the affairs of young people, lest we make things worse."
Ma Xiulan rolled her eyes at her sister and said, "Come on, you're just worrying about other people's business. You're trying to persuade me. Let me ask you, what's going on with your newly engaged daughter? Why is she suddenly pregnant? Isn't she just in high school?"
The news that had been circulated before was that the two children would get engaged first but not live together. They would wait until they had completed their studies and reached the legal age stipulated by the country before officially getting married.
Get the marriage certificate. But how long has it been, two months? And such a big mess has happened?
Of course, this kind of thing is actually quite common, and it is a common phenomenon, especially in backward rural areas, but generally, they drop out of school early, don’t study, and enter society early...
The cultural level is not high.
Families with daughters would like to marry them off early, rather than leaving them at home to eat idle meals, and they can also get some dowry.
Families with sons also think about getting them married early to carry on the family line and have children. Sons are hopeless, so they can only rely on grandchildren.
Generally there are these two situations.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the family is rich, the son does not want to study, but the parents are afraid that he will go astray, so they simply arrange a wife for him early. Since the parents can no longer control him, they let his wife take care of him.
Why do you feel so?
Because there is such a traditional concept: "Men become sensible after getting married."
Although it may not be true.
But there is some truth in the old saying, many boys are careless before they get married, but after they get married, they have their own families and begin to realize their responsibilities, especially when they have children, the influence of marriage will make them grow up quickly and become mature.
Of course, nothing is absolute.
Some people realize their sense of responsibility and are under external pressure, so they will grow up quickly, become mature, and become strong. But some people simply cannot bear the pressure or take responsibility, so they just give up. What should we do?
Ma Xiulan's younger sister is the women's director of the village. Although she is a widow now, the family is not short of money.
There's no need to be in such a hurry to marry off your daughter, right?
What's more, at such a young age, you're going to give birth to someone else's son?
Ma Xiumei smiled bitterly and said, "Sis, since you asked me, I won't hide it from you. It's actually all my fault. I didn't discipline them enough, so they dared to fall in love at such a young age. Even I was kept in the dark. Don't you think they are so bold?"
"Ugh."
"If it was just puppy love, it would be fine. As long as we are ruthless, we can still stop it. But the key is that they dared to do it. They dared to eat the forbidden fruit and they were not on guard at all."
"By the time I found out, it was too late."
"The eldest girl is already pregnant, what can I do?"
"The ugliness of the family must not be publicized."
"Force her to have an abortion?"
"Should we call the police and ask the police to arrest the man and shoot him?"
Ma Xiumei said hysterically: "Sister, it's free love, people say it's free love, what can I do?
I don't even have anyone to discuss this with.
I could only cry and beg the man's parents to consider the child's young age and agree to let them get married instead of making trouble, which would be hard for both parties. "
Lu Yang's mother-in-law, Ma Xiulan opened her mouth wide.
He stared at his sister blankly for a long time.
Then he said in a panic: "Yes, I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it, I thought..."
"Do you think that because I am a fickle person, I will teach my daughter to be a fickle person as well?"
There is a lot of trouble at the widow's door.
This is true all over the world, especially in the countryside. No matter how upright you are, there will always be some gossipers who, for some reason, will gossip about you behind your back.
Ma Xiumei is the director of the Women's Department. She has offended many people since the implementation of the family planning policy. She is not unaware of the rumors outside, but she just pretends not to hear them.
Let them say what they want.
Anyway, Ma Xiumei won't lose any weight.
Those who are clean will be clean by themselves.
But it is not possible now. On the one hand, it involves her daughter, and on the other hand, the innocent are no longer innocent. They themselves are not clean, so it is even more impossible for others to say it.
That's why she had to swallow her anger. Even if she agreed to her daughter's request and let her get married at a young age and have children for other families, it was better than getting pregnant before marriage and ruining the girl's reputation before getting married.
It’s a very difficult question to choose one of two options, but no matter how difficult it is, you still have to make a choice.
Ma Xiulan panicked. She swore, “No, no, no, sister, listen to me. I definitely didn’t mean that. You misunderstood me. You really misunderstood me. I just wanted to care about you. I… Hi…”
Look, what is this called?
The yellow mud on the crotch is either shit or it is shit.
This is what happens when you talk too much.
Ma Xiumei had already wiped away her tears. She was the village women's director, and this was the village committee building. She was on duty today, so if she wanted to cry, now was not the time. "Okay, you've finished your call, so leave now. I still have to be on duty. I can handle my daughter's affairs myself, and you don't need to worry about it. You'd better take care of yourself. Watch out for the weasel that falls into the chicken coop. Humph, big or small, no one can be saved."
After saying that, he forcibly pushed his sister out of the office.
Ma Xiulan was stunned for a moment.
She didn't quite understand what her sister said: What do you mean a weasel fell into a chicken coop? What big or small?
"Hey, please explain clearly, who can't protect it?"
"Ma Xiumei, open the door for me. Who are you talking about? Who can't be protected? Who is the weasel? Who is the chicken? Open the door. I have to settle the matter with you today."
