The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 60 (Part 2)

The cost of cooking is not that high, so renting a house or a shop is not as much of a cost as it is in later times, especially nowadays when you don’t need to pay a deposit of three months and one month in advance.

But since I have never done this before, I always think it is extra complicated and difficult.

Chen Rou said: "The next step is to buy a house and a shop."

"It's still early, no rush." ​​said Sister Chen Si.

"If you don't buy it now, you will regret it later." Chen Rou said to her.

"It's right to listen to your sister. She has lived in the city for a long time. If there is a house, just buy it. It will be stable." said Chen's mother.

Sister Chen nodded and said, "We don't have enough money right now. Let's save some more."

Then I also gave a red envelope to her mother. It might not be as much as what my younger sister gave, but it was a thoughtful gesture after all.

Naturally, Chen's mother would not dislike it and accepted it with a smile.

At noon, we gathered together to eat. We used a big table and the whole family had a meal together in a lively atmosphere.

Chen Rou said to her two nephews, "Now his head is taller than your father, but he is too thin. This braised pork is your grandma's specialty. Eat more."

"We are thin, but we are in good health. You don't have to worry, auntie." An Wen said with a smile.

"You won't get fat no matter how much you eat." An Wu nodded.

But needless to say, the two brothers had great appetites. Mother Chen cooked a lot of food just for them to eat, so they just ate as much as they wanted.

Han Hang and his siblings are also in the growing stage, and they all enjoy eating.

So even though you cook a lot, it’s just right by the time the meal is finished.

In other words, conditions have improved now. If it were in the past, being able to eat until you are 60% full would be considered good.

After eating and drinking, we continued to chat and were not in a hurry to go back.

When Mrs. Chen San came back with the children, it was already late, so they didn't stay any longer.

Chen Rou and Han Guobin, as well as Chen Sijie and An Dabang, all returned with their children.

Mrs. Chen San's eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look at Brother Chen San.

Brother Chen San basically had an idea of ​​what was going on.

The room was stocked with medicinal liquor for injuries and sprains, so when I got back I asked, "How badly did you get pinched this time?"

Mrs. Chen San showed her waist. When Brother Chen San saw it, his eyes sank. He smiled and said, "Not bad. Your parents really love you and have raised a good daughter. But every year, you want to go back and get beaten. You really teach your daughter well."

Mrs. Chen San didn't say anything.

Brother Chen San rubbed her with medicinal wine, but he was too aggressive. Sister Chen San cried out in pain and said, "Be gentle."

"What's the matter? I'm too heavy and my mother is pinching me. How can you bear it?" said Brother Chen San.

Mrs. Chen San said, "You too, you just want your second brother and younger brother to come over..."

Because he just left without leaving any responsibility, her mother strangled her severely.

"Shut up! If you dare to say this in front of mother, I will help you pack your things and let you go back to your mother's home!" said Brother Chen San.

"What will happen to the children if I go back to my parents' home?" Chen Sansao retorted.

"What's the matter? Do you think I can't find a warm kang to be a stepmother for the children?" Brother Chen raised his eyebrows.

Mrs. Chen San originally wanted to retort to him and then try to persuade her second brother and younger brother to come over in a soft voice, as her mother had already instructed her to do so. However, her face changed when she heard this.

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Chen San asked immediately.

"If you think our family is doing better now and want to bring your family here, then we should break up quickly and you can go back to your beloved family. Otherwise, you should just stay quiet and be a good boss lady. You can choose one of the two options," said Brother Chen San.

"Do you still have any conscience? I have worked like a slave for you for so many years and gave birth to your children..."

"What do you think I mistreat you?" Brother Chen San looked at her and said, "In the past, when our family was not well off, I found a bird's nest outside and cooked eggs. I couldn't bear to eat them myself, so I had to bring them back for you to eat. Did I mistreat you? Did our mother mistreat you too? For so many years, you ate whatever was eaten at home. How many women in the village had to spend their confinement after childbirth? Even when our family was not well off, didn't your mother let you lie on the kang for ten days or half a month? She never mistreat you with thick porridge, eggs, etc. How dare you say that you were treated like this when you were at your mother's house?"

"But that's my mother's home..."

"So what about your mother's family? Can they interfere in the business of my Chen family? What do they think they are?" Third Brother Chen said bluntly, "I have been enduring all these years and have been filial to you every year. Don't think I don't know that you took back all the money you saved. But that is your private money. You can give it to me however you want. I will also take back the New Year gifts. No matter how much other things there are, there is nothing left. For so many years, my son and daughter have not eaten anything from their grandparents. What era is it now? They have to bring their own food when they go there during the New Year. I feel so embarrassed for them!"

Brother Chen San doesn't think he is a mean person.

They really had never said anything over the years. He knew that his wife had given all the money she had saved to her parents' home, but he had never said a word.

After all, that was her mother's home, so she could give as much as she wanted. However, although her mother was asked to keep all the big accounts in the family, she also had a lot.

It wasn’t much in the past, only a dozen or twenty yuan a year, but nowadays, it’s at least forty or fifty yuan a year.

Most of the money she saves will be taken back to her parents' home, but it doesn't matter, as her family doesn't expect it.

But has his mother-in-law's family restrained themselves? Seeing that the family conditions have improved, their appetites have become bigger and bigger. Do they regard the Chen family as their pocket? If they can't get the money, they will strangle his wife.

How could Brother Chen San not know?

But he kept it in mind and didn't say anything, because he just wanted to marry this girl because he was itching for sex.

But now she actually wanted to get her brothers from her mother's side over here, and she really listened to her mother. Brother Chen San couldn't hold back the knife in his hand any longer.

We must stop this woman from having such thoughts.

So there are some things that he has never said before, but now he is really impolite.

Mrs. Chen had no idea that he had such strong opinions about her family. She was so embarrassed by what he said that she said, "It's not easy for my parents either..."

"They are none of my business. Are they a family with no descendants or something? Their three sons are just decorations, right? I heard that your eldest sister has been kicked out of the house by your brother-in-law, and lives in that shabby thatched house in her village. Do you want to learn from her? If you do, I will give you some respect. Now pack up and go back. This is the end of our relationship!" Third Brother Chen snorted coldly.

His brother-in-law has now kicked his sister-in-law out of the house and remarried a widow.

Even her own son and daughter called the widow "mother", but as for "real mother", no one paid any attention to her.

Mrs. Chen's face turned pale. Her sister's life was so miserable now. She said quickly, "I didn't steal money from my family to give to my parents. The money I gave to my parents was all saved by me!"

"What you save is what you save. I just ask you, can you live like this?" asked Brother Chen San.

His business will surely grow bigger in the future, and he will never allow his wife to hold him back. This time he must give her up once and for all, otherwise she will make trouble from time to time, which is annoying!

Although the couple spoke quietly in the room, Chen's mother, who leaned over to eavesdrop, still heard everything.

She didn't listen any further and went back to the room to whisper the matter to her old man.

"It's not decent over there either." Chen's father also knew about the incident with his third daughter-in-law's eldest sister. It had spread all over the place and she was an example of a thief in the husband's family. If people criticized their daughter-in-law for using her husband's family to support her own family, they would bring her up and give her a lecture.

She came here last time, but Chen's mother directly sent her third daughter-in-law out and didn't even let her in.

Chen's mother also felt that the relative was really bad, and she didn't understand how she educated her daughter to be so devoted to her parents' home and would not stop until her death.

Needless to say, my two daughters are both filial and brought back a lot of things.

But all this is based on the fact that the family is well-off. She won't spend money on her mother's family without even knowing how to manage her own family. Otherwise, her mother will slap her in the face to wake her up.

These things that happened in my mother's family didn't cause any trouble.

Chen Rou heard about it from her mother later. Her mother had nothing to do after the New Year, so she came to the city to live for a while.

After hearing what her third brother did, Chen Rou laughed and said, "Third brother is becoming more and more like a boss now."

She felt that her third brother was born to be a business man.

He will take care of his own family, provided that his own family is also good, and he will also help his brothers, provided that his brothers themselves know what is going on.
