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

Now that August is over, Lai Gui and his sister are living with Liu Yiyue. That night, as the three of them slept in bed, Liu Yiyue asked, "Lai Gui, has your aunt come back for her wedding?"

"Auntie, my aunt and uncle are back. They brought meat, eggs, brown sugar, and white rice."

My aunt's cooking is delicious; she cooked everything we brought, and my sister and I both got to eat several pieces of meat.

"Did anything happen when your aunt came to visit?"

"No, after my aunt finished eating, she tidied up the house and went home with my uncle."

Didn't she ask your aunt and your grandmother?

"I asked, and I told my aunt that you went to my great-grandmother's house."

My aunt told me to listen to my older aunt at home.

"Auntie knows, go to sleep now."

The next day, just after Chen Shi (7-9 AM), the Yu family arrived in their oxcart.

When Madam Yu saw her family arrive, she was overjoyed. "Husband, has the money arrived yet?"

"Yes, it's almost here, 50 taels."

Today, in front of the Liu family patriarch, I will give my daughter 20 taels of silver. The rest of the Liu family can forget about getting any.

"Old woman, I saw my in-laws' mother at the Huang family's house. I suspect she's the one who gave me the money."

Mother Yu was a little excited. "Old man, it doesn't matter who gave us the money, as long as our family can get it, that's all that matters."

"Yes, you're right."

"You're really planning to give your daughter those 20 taels of silver?"

"Of course we have to give it to them. We have to do a good job of making it look good so that the Liu family patriarch and the Liu family members can't find any fault with it."

"Once this is over, we'll leave a few taels of silver for our daughter, and we'll keep the rest for her, so the Liu family won't try to take it."

"You're so thoughtful, old man."

"Laifu, go and invite your great-grandparents, grandparents, and your aunt over. Tell them that the master has arrived and has important matters to discuss with them."

A little while later, the Liu family arrived at the door of Yu Guixiang's house. Yu's father immediately said, "In-law, please send someone to invite the Liu family patriarch over. I want to give him the money in front of him."

Grandpa Liu turned his gaze to Liu Yiyue, "Young lady, go and invite the head of the Liu family over. Tell him that someone from the Yu family has come and ask him to come and be a witness."

When Liu Yiyue met the old clan chief, she said, "Grandpa Clan Chief, the Yu family has come to repay the money and would like to ask you to come and be a witness."

"Did the Yu family really get money from your maternal grandmother's house?"

"It's coming soon, 50 taels, but I'll pay for it myself."

"Oh, I didn't realize you were so rich!"

"These are the jewelry pieces my second sister gave me; I pawned them."

"You pawned the things your sister gave you just to help your good-for-nothing uncles?"

"Grandpa Clan Chief, I have no choice. I can't watch my mother suffer in the middle. They are my mother's own brothers and my own uncles. I can't just stand by and watch them go to jail!"

Money is inanimate, but people are alive; people are more important than money!

"Girl, I know you're filial, but everything should be done in moderation. Never hurt the feelings of those who are good to you."

"I know about the clan chief, but I just feel that my mother has suffered too much. As her daughter, I want to be as filial as possible."

The old patriarch stopped there and followed Liu Yiyue to the Liu family's old residence.

"Grandpa, Uncle Yu, the old clan chief has arrived."

Father Yu smiled and said, "Old clan chief, we've disturbed you again. We'll have to trouble you to make the trip yourself."

We went to the Huang family and got 50 taels of silver. This mother-in-law and her daughter can testify to this. According to the original agreement, 40% of the silver we got should be given to my daughter to help her recover.

"I'll give my daughter 20 taels of silver today, right here in front of the old clan chief."

Father Yu gave the silver to Mother Yu, saying, "Take the silver inside and give it to your daughter so she can keep it herself."

As Yu's mother was about to walk into the room with the silver, she was stopped by Old Lady Liu. "Mother-in-law, just give me this silver. We'll buy whatever our granddaughter-in-law wants to eat."

"The money must go to my daughter; she risked her life for it. If she wants to give it to you, then give it to her; we will not interfere."

"Her mother-in-law, don't you understand? Isn't the head of the family in charge of all the money? How can a granddaughter-in-law take money?"

In our Liu family, the old man is the head of the household, so this money should rightfully be ours.

"I don't care about that. It was agreed that this money was for my daughter to improve her health, so it has to be spent on my daughter."

If she wants to eat anything, just give her the money to buy it. All you need to do is take good care of her during her postpartum period.

"Elder Chief, tell me, am I right or not?"

"What the Yu family said is right. This money should be given to Qingshan's wife. If she wants you to keep it, then you can keep it. If she doesn't want to, you can't force her to give it to you."

"That's right, the old clan chief is sensible, unlike some people who are only interested in money."

"Since her mother-in-law said so, then we will not take care of our granddaughter-in-law's food and drink from now on. She can only eat if she pays for it; otherwise, she won't get any food."

"Grandma Qingshan, what kind of talk is that? Does it mean my daughter doesn't eat or drink while she's in your house?"

"If she doesn't give us money, then we'll just have to eat whatever we eat, and there's no way she'll get special treatment for us."

If his mother-in-law truly loves her daughter, she can stay at our Liu family's house and serve her personally, or she can take her back to your Yu family's house and raise her properly.

"Have you ever seen a woman who has just given birth go back to her parents' home, especially one who has had a miscarriage? Are you trying to disgust our Yu family? What a vicious heart you have!"

No wonder your Liu family has so many scandals; it turns out your lineage is crooked!

Look at your family! Some are dead, some are crippled, some have separated, and some have severed ties. It turns out the problem lies at the root!

My daughter is really unlucky to have married into your family.

"Alright, everyone calm down for a bit. Huang, you go in and watch your mother-in-law give 20 taels of silver to Qingshan's wife."

Mother Yu put 20 taels of silver into her daughter's pocket, saying, "My dear daughter, keep this silver safe, don't let anyone trick you into giving it away."

Once you're out of confinement, Mom will have your older brother come and pick you up so you can stay at home for a while.

Laifu, if anyone bullies your mother, come back right away and tell Grandma and Grandpa, understand?

"Grandma, I understand. I will take good care of Mom."

"Mother-in-law, I'm going back today. Please take good care of my daughter."

"She's my daughter-in-law, I'll definitely take good care of her."

When Yu's mother came out of the room, Yu's father said he wanted to go back, and the old clan chief followed them out of the Liu family's old house.

After everyone had left, Granny Liu went into Yu Guixiang's room and said, "Granddaughter-in-law, leave those 20 taels of silver with Grandma here for you. Tell Grandma what you want to eat and Grandma will buy it for you."

"Grandma, I can keep this money myself, so I won't trouble you."

"We're all family, what's the trouble? Besides, it's not appropriate for you to keep this money. The family's money should be managed by the head of the family."

"Grandma, no matter what, I will not give you this money. Please leave and don't disturb my rest."

"Great! They've all gone too far!"

Old Lady Liu immediately reached out to snatch the silver from Yu Guixiang's hand. During the struggle, Yu Guixiang exerted too much force and, being weak, fainted.

When Laifu came in, he saw his great-grandmother pinning his mother down on the bed and beating her. In a moment of panic, he picked up a wooden basin from the ground and smashed it at Old Lady Liu.

Old Mrs. Liu cried out "Ouch!" and fell to the ground, clutching her aching back and groaning.

"You little brat, how dare you lay a hand on your great-grandmother!"

When Laifu saw that his mother's eyes were closed and she couldn't be woken up, he immediately shouted, "Grandma, Great-Grandma beat my mother to death! Come quick!"
