"Mom, I'm not hungry."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry. Look at you, you've lost weight after being away for the past few days."
"If you don't want to eat, I have something to tell my brother-in-law. Just stop working."
Hearing this, Tian Yalan sneered and said: "You are a highly educated village chief, and he is just a peasant who cannot read or write. What can you two talk about together?"
Liu Yaqing frowned and said: "Mom, can you please stop belittling your brother-in-law? If it weren't for him, would our family have been able to live so well in the past two years? Also, he is not as miserable as you think. Some of the people I work for In terms of matters, many of his insights and ideas are more original than I thought."
"Just him?" Tian Yalan looked disdainful, thinking to herself that in real comparison, apart from farming, Wang Xiaofei was no better than Liu Yaqing.
But Liu Yaqing didn't think so.
Before this, although Wang Xiaofei was a little depressed due to various pressures.
But no matter whether it is work or life, there is no fault.
And after meeting again today, it felt as if Wang Xiaofei had been reborn.
His whole temperament is different, and his thoughts and ideas are more admirable than before.
Such a man, even if he is married for the second time, will be liked by many girls outside.
Liu Yaqing felt that it was definitely their family's luck and blessing that Wang Xiaofei could come to their home.
Standing up, she said with a serious look: "Mom, no matter how bad my brother-in-law is, he is still your son-in-law. As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son-in-law. I think you should not be so harsh on him all the time.
What's more, whether he is a person or a person, he is ten thousand times better than you think! I hope you can respect him and don't always belittle him or look down on him. "
Tian Yalan frowned: "Did you take the wrong medicine today? Why did you help him target me everywhere when you came back?"
"I'm not targeting you, I'm just telling the truth."
"The truth comes from the facts. I only know that it is a fact that your sister died a few days after he got married. I also know that it is a fact that he lived in our house and ate our food. I also know that if it were not for the shelter of our family, , it is a fact that he has long since fallen into the streets, and may even be dead!"
"you……"
"Stop arguing!"
When Liu Yaqing was about to retort, Wang Xiaofei interrupted them: "You must be very tired after working for so long. Go inside first and have a good rest. We will do other things later."
"I'm sorry, brother-in-law, my mother..."
Wang Xiaofei waved his hand calmly: "It's okay, I've long been used to it."
Liu Yaqing's face was full of apology.
But she also knew that if she continued to say this, it would only make Wang Xiaofei's situation more embarrassing, so she sighed helplessly and took the lead in the room.
Wang Xiaofei didn't want to stay here, but just as he was about to go out with the hoe, Tian Yalan blocked the way.
"You are not allowed to tell Yaqing that Li Laizi came to me asking for money!"
"What? Are you afraid that your daughter will laugh at you?"
"you……"
Tian Yalan hesitated for a moment, blushed and said: "No matter what the reason is, you must not tell her. Also, don't think that I will be grateful to you just because you saved me!"
Wang Xiaofei said sarcastically: "You are overthinking. It is not for you that I take action against Li Laizi, but for this family and the things I have worked so hard to buy.
In addition, even if it is really for you, I will not expect your gratitude, because a cold-blooded and selfish person like you doesn't know what gratitude is at all! "
"you……"
Tian Yalan was so angry that she wanted to curse, but Wang Xiaofei didn't give her this chance and turned around and walked out with the hoe.
"asshole!"
"I was really blind. If I had known, I should have asked you to sell your land as a slave to pay me back!"
"Mom, what you said is so unpleasant."
Liu Yaqing originally wanted to be alone for a while, but before she could sit down in the room, Tian Yalan's chattering sounded in her ears again.
Seeing her daughter's displeasure, Tian Yalan murmured: "He keeps making me angry, can't I just retort?"
"Are you refuting that? It's clearly a wanton insult! Also, when did my brother-in-law get angry with you? He is busy working for us every day.
It's just that you didn't give him a good look when he got home, and you pointed at him, but even so, he didn't do anything excessive. On the contrary, it was you who thought he did this and that. "
"Wang Xiaofei owes me, so he should be beaten and scolded as much as he wants! Besides, he is just a bumpkin with mud legs, and I am the mother of a big village chief like you. Am I not qualified to dislike him?"
Hearing this, Liu Yaqing suddenly looked startled.
She originally thought that Tian Yalan was so mean to Wang Xiaofei before because she was unwilling to accept the sudden death of her sister.
After all, the daughter who raised the eldest child by herself died suddenly just two days after getting married. Even if it was due to illness, it is definitely difficult for a mother to accept.
In that case, it is normal to find an outlet to vent your emotions.
So Liu Yaqing didn't stop her too much before. She just stepped forward to stop Tian Yalan when she went too far, and then waited to comfort Wang Xiaofei with a few words afterwards.
But now, she suddenly realized that she had thought wrong.
And it couldn't be more wrong.
Because Tian Yalan targeted Wang Xiaofei like that, it had nothing to do with her dead sister.
It was just because Wang Xiaofei owed her money that gave her the capital to be arrogant and mean.
It was also because she became the village chief, which gave her the confidence to think she was superior to others!
Thinking of this, Liu Yaqing's heart suddenly surged with 30% anger, 70% self-blame and guilt.
Angry because she didn't expect that her mother was not who she thought she was, but simply treated Wang Xiaofei like a cow. The previous harsh words were not a vent of emotions, they were just doing this and that for her in the name of Wang Xiaofei owing money.
The reason for self-blame and guilt is that although Liu Yaqing felt that she was unfair to Wang Xiaofei before, she still helped her mother in every way, and even asked Wang Xiaofei to give in to her mother many times.
This is tantamount to taking Wang Xiaofei's patience as a matter of course.
This kind of behavior, which not only failed to understand the truth, but also aided the tyrants, made Liu Yaqing feel tortured in her heart, and she also felt a deep sense of guilt and debt to Wang Xiaofei.
She took a deep breath: "Mom, I really didn't expect you to be such a person. My brother-in-law treats us as relatives and family members, but you are so mean and ruthless to him!
It has been more than two years. Even if it is a stone, if it is placed in the heart, it should be warmed, right?
Also, don't you think it's ridiculous and ashamed when you look down on my village chief and call him a jerk?
In the first two years, most of the expenses I spent on college were earned by my brother-in-law from farming.
And when I graduated and decided to become the village chief, he was also his full support, helping me buy things and give gifts to show my kindness! It can be said that without his help, I would never have been able to sit in the position of village chief so smoothly.
Therefore, if we really want to compare merit, he is definitely the biggest in this family, and he should be the one who can use my title as the so-called village chief to show off his appearance, not you! "
