Mrs. Tan didn't say anything, and she seemed to think that it was a bit unreasonable to sell the eggs for money and not give them to the children at home.
But she was not happy to change her mind.
"What you are saying, Fourth, is that a few hundred pennies is still money, and a mosquito's legs are still meat, no matter how thin they are. If I exchange the eggs for money, I won't be able to support the children in the same way!" said Tan.
Yang Huaming sneered, "Huh, that sounds nice. I'm afraid if you change it into money, it won't be to subsidize the children, but to subsidize Mei'er's bottomless pit, right?"
Tan's brows stood up, and his voice suddenly became sharp: "Fourth, what did you say? Say it again!"
Yang Huaming was not to be outdone, and said in a rough voice: "I dare you to say it a hundred times, mother, even if you want to sell eggs, you should let me sell them for you. You have so many sons. If you don't use them, you have to ask Meier to do this." Son, what do you have in mind? You really think we are fools or blind people who can’t tell!"
Mr. Tan was fooled by Yang Huaming.
It was a good thing that she couldn't see, otherwise, the ferocious and twisted image of Yang Huaming in front of her would have frightened the old lady.
Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou also frowned and stood aside with solemn expressions. For the first time, the two brothers did not say anything to stop Yang Huaming when he yelled at me.
But Yang Huazhong still secretly gave Yang Huaming a look, shook his head slightly, and signaled that this was the upper limit of Yang Huaming's rage. The momentum he should have and the words he should say were already in place. He could not increase the pressure any more. Then it becomes bad.
Yang Huazhou, on the other hand, was quietly sizing up Tan's next reaction.
Tan didn't say a word, and for the first time, she didn't spit at Yang Huaming.
She just leaned forward and groped for a while next to the pillow, and then she found a cloth bag that was nearly the size of an adult's fist. She peeled off the cloth layer by layer with trembling hands.
"I knew your brothers were up to no good when they came to see me. They've been doing this for a long time just because they were worried that I would supplement Mei'er with things..."
"You small-minded people, look, look!"
The cloth bag was opened, and there were several moon cakes inside.
Although the mooncake has been squeezed and deformed, judging from the color and the remaining patterns on it, the mooncake in its intact state must be exquisite and elegant.
"Why do these mooncakes look so familiar?" Yang Huaming murmured.
Yang Huazhou said: "This is the mooncake brought back by Chen'er from outside. Didn't we all eat it at Luo's house last night?"
Yang Huaming suddenly realized that he remembered that the taste was so good, and Xiao Niuniu even exposed Tan to his face for stealing...
"Mom, after all this time last night, little girl really didn't tell lies. Did you really come back after stealing mooncakes?" Yang Huaming shouted in surprise.
The next moment, Mrs. Tan suddenly threw the mooncake in her hand at his face, and angry curses followed like a violent storm:
"You bastard bastard, your sister is just being bullied by your supercilious looks. Not to mention that she doesn't dare to accept my money and jewelry, even these mooncakes..."
"The old Wang family is having a hard time. Your sister must be strong. She would rather not have these things than talk to you about it. Whatever grievances she has, she will keep them to herself. You brothers and sisters-in-law have a better life than your sister. Have you never thought of helping me? You are brothers and sisters from the same mother, so why are you so cruel?"
Mrs. Tan was crying and cursing at the same time, throwing tears and snot all over the floor and walls.
"I asked her to sell the eggs, and the money from the sales will support her life. Wang Shuanzi, a short-lived ghost who will never live, is a bottomless pit. The two boys are not sensible. Wang Hongquan, that loser, can only drink some wine and talk a few big words." None, Lao Wang’s family is supported by you girls alone. If you don’t feel bad, I feel bad.”
"Why should I supplement her a little? If you don't like me, I will only eat one steamed bun a day from now on. I will not eat more of your rations. I will save my rations to supplement my Mei'er. I am seventy years old. Well, if she lies down today, she may not wake up tomorrow, is it wrong for me to live an extra day to support her?"
Mrs. Tan was crying, cursing and stamping her feet, and her left shoe was kicked away.
Yang Huazhong walked over and silently picked up the shoe, then squatted down in front of Mrs. Tan, "Mom, the ground is cold, put your shoes on first..."
"If I don't wear anything, let me freeze to death. If I can't do anything as big as a pinhead, what's the point of living? Let me die!"
Tan's feet were kicking and he was shouting even more.
Yang Huazhong pinched Tan's feet, forced the shoes onto her feet, then stood up and stood aside.
"Mom, it's not that we don't let you make the decision, we just want to tell you that there must be a limit to how much you can support Lao Wang's family. We will not interfere with small things and your own money, but the gifts from your daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, and granddaughter-in-law Don’t arrange your gold and silver jewelry casually.”
"Don't ruin their thoughts, it will really make people feel chilling..."
"Mei'er is considered a waste?" Tan raised his neck and asked.
"Mei'er is the daughter-in-law of the old Wang family, and she and our old Yang family are two different families!" Yang Huazhong yelled directly.
"After you've finished paying for Mei'er, do you still want to pay for her two sons? Are you able to pay that much? In these years, you haven't had any income of your own, so what did you use to pay for it? Aren't they all taking advantage of our filial piety in disguise? Do you want to post your things?"
"It's not that I don't want you to post it, but don't post it too much. Have you heard of Dou Mi En Sheng Mi Qiu? The more fierce you post, the more you let those two boys, Da Bai and Xiao Hei, get something for nothing, which encourages their laziness and greed. Can you tell me Understand?"
"Third brother, you are talking nonsense!"
"Third brother, you are not talking nonsense. There are too many things like raising white-eyed wolves in the world!" Yang Huazhou couldn't bear it anymore. The three brothers were like three volcanoes in a row, erupting in turn. The scene was quite spectacular.
"You can't see with your old eyes, you don't go out and walk around, and you don't use your ears to inquire about things outside. You don't know how useless two boys like Big White and Little Hei have been raised now!"
"I won't talk about Dabai. He doesn't want it anymore. He doesn't come back to see Wang Shuanzi even if he can't get out of bed. Xiaohei comes back every three days, but what does he come back for? To get living expenses and not study hard. , I asked Zhang Ban specifically during the banquet today. Xiao Hei's grades are at the bottom of the entire academy. He is not a good student at all. From being a primary school student at the age of six to now being a fourteen-year-old, he even failed to pass the exam. Not on!"
"I don't know what Lao Wang's family is insisting on. What's the point of supporting a child like this after eight years of failure? It's better to go home early and get the hoe handle!"
Yang Huazhou shouted out the words he had been holding in his stomach all these years in one breath. His whole body felt so relaxed, as if he had run five or six miles in one breath inhaling the fragrance of the grass and trees in the mountains early in the morning. The feeling of release was so vivid.
