Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Bai Jing smiled at her mother and said, "I know, Mom." Her mother only mentioned her eldest uncle, so she figured her mother wouldn't refuse to help her younger uncle.

So Bai Jing asked, "What about my uncle?"

Luo Chunhua sighed, "Your younger uncle, well, don't let your older uncle know. Your younger uncle has had a hard life too."

Although his wife was in charge of the household, there was still his sister-in-law above him, so how good could his life be?

"It will be better when your uncle gets married."

Once they get married, they can separate from the family, and then the younger brother can live a more comfortable life.

Bai Jing understood.

"Okay, I understand, but Mom, I'm afraid Grandma will feel bad about this."

She could tell that the old lady loved all her children.

However, she had limited abilities and was unable to help her children when they were in trouble.

"It's alright. If she's willing, I'll bring her to live with us." Luo Chunhua didn't really care about her parents' thoughts, after all, all the elderly people wanted was for their old age and security.

Hearing this, Bai Jing felt relieved. "Mother, it's good that you think this way." Bai Jing was also afraid of putting her mother in a difficult position.

While Bai Jing was waiting, her maternal grandparents and maternal uncle went back to the village.

My uncle stayed behind.

. . .

After my maternal grandmother's family returned home, they told my maternal aunt about the job.

At first, my aunt was very happy. She never thought she would have the opportunity to be a city dweller in her lifetime.

"Can I really go to the city, Luo Ping?" At this time, Li Xiangmei was unaware that Luo Chunhua had refused to pay for rent for her family.

So she was very excited when her husband returned, and she had already told others that she was going to the city.

Recently, the whole village has come to know that Luo Ping from the Luo family has made something of himself; he has actually found a job in the city.

You have to understand, rural people like them have absolutely no connections to find work in the city.

It's already quite famous for a village to produce even one city dweller.

Not to mention the grandeur of the Luo family's eldest daughter when she returned, which had already made everyone green with envy.

"Xiangmei, my job isn't stable yet, there's no rush to go to the city. Besides, we don't even have a house in the city, so we'd have nowhere to stay." Although Wai Luoping was also a little angry that his younger sister didn't help him to the end.

But he still had some sense of shame and didn't dare to make excessive demands at his younger sister's house. However, he told his parents, but they couldn't grant his wish either.

The first reason I came back this time was to bring my parents back, and the second was to personally tell my wife that I would take them to the city once I had saved up some money.

"What?" Upon hearing that she couldn't go to the city this time, Yang Xiangmei immediately became agitated. "You didn't say this on the phone before, why is it not possible now?"

"Luo Ping, have you changed your mind? Has your older sister found you a better woman in the city? Let me tell you, Luo Ping, don't even think about it."

Li Xiangmei was going crazy. The happier she was before, the more pain she was in now. "Waaah, you heartless bastard, how dare you treat me like this? I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live anymore."

The crying inside carried outside, and Mr. and Mrs. Luo, who were tidying up, looked extremely upset. They knew what was going on inside, but they didn't intend to intervene.

If Luo Ping can't resolve his wife's issues, then forget about the job. After all, Chunhua paid for it anyway, so he can just let her sell the job and he won't lose money.

"Stop shouting! What are you shouting for? I didn't say you couldn't go. It's just that we don't have any money. How will we survive in the city? Food and drink don't cost money." Luo Ping trembled at Li Xiangmei's shout.

He knew his father's character all too well; if he angered his father, he wouldn't get a job.

“Don’t you think about how much it will cost for our whole family to go to the city? I just started working in the factory and I only make thirty-five and a half yuan a month. I still have to pay back my younger sister. Tell me, what are we going to eat?” Luo Ping didn’t have any ulterior motives; he genuinely wanted to live a good life.

"Stop yelling, or I won't go. Do you really think life in the city is so easy? You have to pay for vegetables. You don't have a job, and the kids won't have any food if they go to the city. Do you want our whole family to starve to death in the city?"

Luo Ping's idea was simple, but Li Xiangmei didn't think so.

"What?" She was especially angry when she heard that her family had to pay back the money for her job. "Your sister's family is so rich, how can she make you pay back the money for her job? Is this how a sister should act?"

The elderly couple outside heard him shout such shameless words.

The old lady sighed, "I knew the eldest daughter's family would turn out like this. If I had known, I wouldn't have let Xiaojing help. In the end, she only made enemies. She doesn't even remember what she did when Chunhua was in trouble."

Recalling the past, the old lady's eyes couldn't help but redden.

Mr. Luo was also heartbroken. No matter how well his daughter was doing, it was not a reason for them to come and bite her.

When Chunhua was going through a tough time, they said they would help her, but...
What goes around comes around; retribution may be delayed, but it's just not the right time yet.

Now they know how to ask for help, but they don't even think about what kind of things they've done in the first place.

"Stop talking, let's see what the eldest son does. If it really doesn't work out, then he can quit his job." Mr. Luo patted his wife, offering silent comfort.

Inside the room, Li Xiangmei's shameless words also surprised Luo Ping.

He quickly retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? Why should my younger sister pay for my job? It's not like the job belongs to her family. Don't say things like that again, or you'll hurt her feelings."

"Hmph, what can't be said? Her family is doing well now, so she's got a good attitude, huh? Back in the day..." Before she could finish speaking, the old lady's voice came from outside.

"When I said I'd get some grain for my younger sister, you said a married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl, and it's shameless to ask her parents for grain. What, now that she's contributing money from her job, it's her right?"

The old lady's words exposed Yang Xiangmei's true colors, but unfortunately, the old lady underestimated the greed in human nature.

Yang Xiangmei was already furious, and after being provoked by the old woman, she immediately refused to accept it.

"You still have the nerve to bring up the past with me? Don't think I don't know you secretly sent her food and money. Let me tell you, I got a share of those things too."

"Now that she's made her fortune, she doesn't recognize anyone anymore. Haha, does Luo Chunhua have no shame at all?"

Yang Xiangmei's arrogance was fueled by her early marriage and the fact that she was the eldest daughter-in-law in the family, and the fact that the old lady was not a competitive or ambitious person.

Now, whenever things don't go her way, she starts cursing and swearing, as if this house is her personal fiefdom, showing no respect whatsoever to her in-laws.

"Shut up." Luo Ping chased after her and immediately shouted at his wife, "Don't talk nonsense. I bought this job with borrowed money. If you don't want to pay me back, then I don't want this job either."

Luo Ping still had some sense of shame; he wouldn't do something like taking bribes while eating.

Furthermore, he is fully aware of his future actions and would never utter a word about not repaying the money. (End of Chapter)
