Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

In August, she picked up her basket, told her sister-in-law, and went home with her husband. She didn't want to stay in that house for even a moment longer.

Once the two were home, August asked, "Husband, did my father make things difficult for you earlier?"

He told us not to touch my dowry and asked me to help with spring plowing and gather firewood for the family.

"I remembered what you said. I didn't agree immediately, but just said I would go when I had time. Then you called me. Luckily you called me in time, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

"I saw that you hadn't come back for so long, so I didn't dare to go looking for you. I could only call out to you."

From now on, we should have less contact with my family. From the oldest to the youngest, they are all greedy and insatiable.

"But husband, we need to take better care of Lai Gui and Er Ya from now on. Those two children are really pitiful. They haven't gone astray yet, so we must teach them well and not let them grow up to be like those people in the old house."

"I'll do whatever you say."

The rain finally stopped after four days of continuous rain. Some houses were leaking, and with the cold weather, many people in the village fell ill. Dr. Wu was busy all day, going from house to house.

The weather cleared up, the sun came out, and the villagers gathered together to discuss spring plowing.

"This rain is good; the ground is thoroughly soaked, making spring plowing much easier."

They say spring rain is as precious as oil; this year has started off well, it's sure to be a bumper harvest.

"Hopefully this year will be a bumper harvest, so that we ordinary people can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

"Once the first month of the lunar calendar is over, we can start tilling the land. I wonder when the chili peppers the village chief mentioned can be planted."

"Yes, I had completely forgotten about this if you hadn't mentioned it. Let's go ask the village chief in a couple of days."

"Why wait a couple more days? There's no time like the present, let's go now."

The village chief was just planning for spring plowing when the villagers arrived.

"Village chief, what are the arrangements for spring plowing? When can we plant the chili seedlings?"

"Just plant as you normally would, just set aside the land for planting chili peppers."

Once the seedlings were ready in April, I notified everyone.

"Village chief, if there's anything you need help with in April, just let us know, and we'll do our best to help."

"Okay, I'll come to you if I need any help."

During the few days Huang Lanhua stayed at her parents' home, her mother and several younger brothers kept mentioning that they wanted the gold bracelet, but she just wouldn't respond.

She bought 10 jin of white rice, saying that her mother was not in good health, so she would give her mother 5 jin to help her recover, and take 5 jin back for herself to cook porridge for her eldest son's wife.

Unexpectedly, her younger brothers made their wives cook and eat all the white rice, which made her so angry that her liver hurt.

"Mom, I bought that white rice to help you recover. Look at them, they've wasted 10 jin of it."

"Well, it's all gone now, so nothing's wasted."

My family has never had enough to eat, so when something good comes along, we're bound to be envious.

Mom knows you're filial; you can buy it for Mom later.

"My wife's illness hasn't gotten better yet, and we're out of money; we can't even afford medicine."

As Huang's mother spoke, she continued to cough, and Huang Lanhua quickly patted her back.

The sun came out and the sky cleared, which improved everyone's mood. "Mom, I've been away for several days. I don't know how chaotic the house must be. I'm going back today."

Mother, please keep this tael of silver. Use it to get medicine as soon as possible to recover.

"Orchid! I'm so glad I have you, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to live like this."

In January, visit your maternal grandparents' house more often when you have time, and let your cousins ​​get to know you better.

"Grandma, I understand."

The younger brothers led their families to see the mother and daughter out of the courtyard. The eldest brother quickly said, "Big sister, I'll go hire an oxcart to take you back."

"Okay, you pay for the ride!"

"Big sister, please stop joking with your brother. I'm penniless and don't have a single penny in my pocket. How can I afford the fare?"

Don't you still have five taels of silver in your pocket? Shouldn't you take an oxcart?

"Did this money fall from the sky? You don't care about money that isn't yours, do you?"

"You all go back. My daughter and I will walk back. Remember to get your mother her medicine."

"Don't worry, sister, go back home. We'll take good care of Mother."

Huang Lanhua and Liu Yiyue, mother and son, arrived home around noon. Before they even entered the courtyard, they heard Liu's mother cursing, "She's gone to her parents' house and won't come back. If she's not coming back, then she should never come back. Eldest son, you're a good-for-nothing. You can't even control your own wife. What use are you?"

My mother is getting on in years, and she still has to take care of this whole family, young and old.

When Granny Liu saw Huang and her daughter return, she immediately fell silent. Huang Lanhua ignored her and led Liu Yiyue directly into her room.

Granny Liu immediately followed, "Huang, do you even care about this family? Do you even respect your husband? Do you even care about the elderly and children?"

Old Mrs. Liu asked three questions in a row, and Huang Lanhua smiled sideways, "Mother, I don't like hearing you say that. If I didn't care about this family, I wouldn't have come back. My husband is going to use me to pay off debts, so why should I care about him? As for you, you have arms and legs, and you're living a good life."

"You, you, you..." Old Mrs. Liu was so angry she couldn't speak, wiping away her tears. "My dear girl, look at this! This is your good mother! She doesn't care about her grandmother at all, she doesn't care about your father! You have to stand up for us!"

"Grandma, it's not as serious as you say. My mother and I went to my maternal grandmother's house, but it's raining and we can't come back. We'll wait for the rain to stop before we come back."

"With Mom away, Grandma manages the house perfectly. You're so capable!"

"Ouch! My back hurts from walking. Help me back inside."

Liu Yiyue helped her grandmother back into the house. Huang Lanhua spat and said, "That old hag is just pretending. Let her pretend all she wants. Anyway, I can't cook for them."

"Young lady, what are you and your mother doing at your maternal grandmother's house? Are the Huang family asking you for money?"

"Yes, Grandma, the Yu family is going to send several of my uncles to the authorities. If they don't want to be sent to the authorities, they have to pay 50 taels of silver in compensation."

Grandma had no choice but to send someone to invite Mother back.

"Fifty taels, do you have fifty taels?"

"No, my maternal grandparents begged me repeatedly, and I couldn't bear to see my uncles go to jail. So, I pawned my jewelry and managed to raise 50 taels."

"You silly girl, how come you're just like your stupid mother, completely controlled by the Huang family? That's 50 taels!"

If we left that money with Grandma, our family would be living the best life in the village, and we could hire people to farm our fields.

My God! The Huang family is trying to bankrupt my Liu family!

Old Master Liu spoke up, "Young lady, how much silver do you have left? What jewelry do you own?"

"I had no money, and I had pawned all my jewelry. The Yu family took 50 taels, and according to the original agreement, they were supposed to give us 20 taels."

"Yes, the Yu family is asking for 50 taels back and 20 taels to give us. They took the money back several days ago, why haven't they come yet?"

"It's probably because of the rain, let's wait a bit longer."

When Granny Liu heard about the 20 taels of silver, her tears dried instantly. She had to get those 20 taels of silver into her own hands. Although it was said to be silver from the Huang family, it was actually from the Liu family. Spendthrift women just can't hold onto their money.

Now that her daughter is backing her up, Huang doesn't respect her mother-in-law at all.

"Old man, do you see? This mother and daughter are both clueless. They must keep the money in their own hands."
