Chapter 118 Lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot

Grandma Ma was so angry that her heart was pounding, and she could only tend to her beloved son's wounds by herself.

The next morning, just as Lin Zhilan was about to leave for work, Liu Chunhua pulled her to the corner of the road.

"Sister-in-law, I was just looking for you," Lin Zhilan said, taking out ten yuan from her pocket and handing it to her. "Here's the money back. Your brother-in-law isn't sick at all. I was just coaxing him yesterday."

Liu Chunhua smiled and pushed the money back, "Take it. I knew he wasn't sick, but this is what you deserve. You've really given me a sense of relief!"

"Sister-in-law, just take it. It's your money anyway. If you really want to thank me, could you sew me a couple of bibs later?"

Linlin is now learning to draw with Wang Rou, and her clothes inevitably get stained with crayon marks. Lin Zhilan wants to get two smocks for her to wear outside when she's drawing, so that the crayon marks won't wash off.

Liu Chunhua said, "Just give me the cloth you have, and I'll make it for you."

She looked around and, seeing that no one was around, took out a cloth bag from her bosom. "Dr. Lin, this is all the money and paper money our family has. Could you please keep it safe for me?"

"Ma Daniu's mother and brother are here... I'm really worried about them."

Liu Chunhua had already guessed that Ma Sanniu had come to steal money last night, and since he hadn't succeeded, he certainly wouldn't give up.

Locking it myself probably won't work; I can only hide it.

The family was also worried, and after thinking it over, Liu Chunhua thought of Lin Zhilan.

Dr. Lin is wealthy, so he wouldn't be interested in such a small amount of money.

Besides, I trust Dr. Lin's character.

Lin Zhilan took it and asked, "How much are these tickets? Should I write you a receipt?"

Liu Chunhua: "No need."

Lin Zhilan laughed and said, "There are no witnesses here. If I deny it later, you won't get anything."

Liu Chunhua gestured towards her house with her chin, "Take it if you want; it's better than letting them take it."

Despite saying that, Lin Zhilan still took out all the money and bills, counted them all, confirmed the amount with Liu Chunhua, and then put the money and bills away.

Lin Zhilan went to work as usual. She originally thought that Grandma Ma would definitely wait until her visit to relatives was over before going back, but she started making a fuss in the afternoon.

Grandma Ma sued Liu Chunhua!

Liu Chunhua was called back from the factory, and Li Jiang and Lin Zhilan were also called to be witnesses.

Lin Zhilan and Li Jiang were simply asked a few questions to get a brief understanding of the situation.

They both told the truth.

It turned out that, after listening to someone's clamor, Old Lady Ma went directly to the political commissar's office and threw a tantrum, accusing Liu Chunhua of being unfilial, abusing her mother-in-law, and not giving her food.

When Liu Chunhua was summoned, she went home first. When she arrived at the office, without saying a word, she slammed a large stack of remittance receipts onto the conference room table.

"Boss, my mother-in-law says I'm unfilial, and I strongly disagree! These are the remittance slips we've sent back to our hometown since we got married. Please check them."

My daughter-in-law and sister-in-law have done so much for me, I have a clear conscience!

The leaders were first shocked by the amount on the remittance slips, and then they were startled by the amount of money being remitted.

From a few yuan or a dozen yuan many years ago to 6 or 70 yuan in recent years, I haven't missed a single month.

All together, it amounts to a huge sum of money.

Ma Daniu was already a regimental commander, so raising three sons would have been easy for him. However, Liu Chunhua and the three Ma boys dressed very simply and lived frugally. You couldn't tell at all that they were the family members of a regimental commander.

After the leaders looked at the remittance slip, their gazes towards Old Lady Ma changed.

The son and daughter-in-law are not filial.

What kind of thing does the old lady want?

Grandma Ma was dumbfounded.

She had never sent money to anyone before, but she never expected that there would be money order slips for sending money, and that Liu Chunhua had collected them all.

Grandma Ma explained, "Da Niu's father passed away early, and he promised his father that he would take good care of me and my two younger brothers..."

"Didn't he do it?" Liu Chunhua's eyes reddened. "Grandma, what else do you want us to do?"

During the three years of hardship, he tightened his belt to send food back to you, fearing that you and your two brothers would go hungry at home.

He was so hungry he was dizzy and fainted in front of the post office. If someone hadn't bumped into him, he probably would have starved to death and no one would have known.

Liu Chunhua met Ma Daniu through an introduction, and the person who introduced them even told Liu Chunhua about it as a joke.

Liu Chunhua thought at the time that such a filial person couldn't be too bad.

I never imagined this person was so blindly filial!

She wiped away her tears and continued to complain, "Now that both of my brothers are married, my three sons need to go to school and get married in the future, so we need to save some money."

Da Niu and I discussed that we would only send 20 yuan back home each month, as our retirement money for our mother.

As a result, when she saw that the money was less than expected, she immediately chased after the army unit...

With evidence to back it up, Old Lady Ma couldn't refute Liu Chunhua's words. She could only find another fault to complain to her boss: "I've been here for several days, and my wife hasn't cooked me a single meal. She takes her three little brats out to eat every day before coming back. Now there's not a single grain of rice left in the kitchen. I haven't eaten all day, and I'm so hungry that I'm dizzy."

She always knew how to play the victim in front of Ma Daniu, and it never failed her.

But these leaders aren't her sons, and none of them buy into this.

"Comrade Liu Chunhua, is what she said true?"

"It's true."

Before Old Lady Ma could even feel smug after Liu Chunhua admitted it, she heard her say, "I had my reasons for doing this. On the first day she and my brother-in-law arrived, they asked me for money. When I refused, she hit me."

Commander Li and Aunt Hehua, who live next door, came to break up the fight, and she beat them up too. And yesterday, Ma Sanniu sleepwalked and opened my door; many people know about this, the leaders could ask anyone at random.

Lin Zhilan and Li Jiang arrived quickly and told them the whole story.

It was exactly the same as what the other soldiers had investigated.

Political Commissar Zhuang's face turned frighteningly dark after hearing this.

It wasn't just because of what Grandma Ma did, but more importantly, because Grandma Ma came to the administration building to report the disturbance.

There's a lot of commotion outside, but they absolutely cannot let this evil wind blow into the army.

The tendency to report colleagues and even their sons and daughters-in-law at the drop of a hat has struck a nerve with leaders who want to clean up these malpractices.

Grandma Ma was made an example of, and the army ordered her and Ma Sanniu to leave the army immediately and not to visit the army for three years.

Liu Chunhua was overjoyed to hear this.

Unexpectedly, Old Lady Ma shot herself in the foot and brought about her own demise.

Three years is fine too.

Liu Chunhua thought unkindly: How many more three-year periods can she make a scene like this?

Grandma Ma never expected things to end this way, and she collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted.

The soldiers helped her up and carried her outside, and Lin Zhilan went out with the others.

As soon as I got back to the apartment building, a group of people were chatting under a tree.

Grandma Ma, not knowing who she saw, suddenly broke free from the soldier's grasp and charged towards him with a ferocious expression.
