Chapter 838: Dislike

~11 min read 2,145 words

"That was while working for you, so you have to be responsible."

"Is your brain sick? It was clearly while arguing with you that he got injured." Ye Ersao stood with her hands on her hips and glared.

Eldest Sister-in-law echoed, "Right, harming your own husband, and still wanting others to be responsible. Where is that kind of logic?"

"Being able to take you to the hospital and pay for your medical expenses is out of friendship. Do you think I'm a fool? You got injured yourself, and you want me to be responsible? If it were really an accidental injury while working for me, let alone paying for medical expenses, paying for three months of lost wages wouldn't be a problem. Now it's an injury from your own pulling and dragging, so you be responsible yourself."

"Right, where is the face to ask us to bring you over to change medicine, and still want us to support your whole family. If we didn't care about you at the first time, and let you send him yourself, it would be fine. Still thinking about blackmailing people, relying on us?" Ye Mu also glared at them angrily.

Haozi's mother also refused to give up, "How is this relying on you? It was an injury at your place, and it was also crushed by a rock while moving stones. You must be responsible, right?"

"Right, I was just talking to him. Who asks for money at someone else's house early in the morning? Just let him say it when he gets off work at noon. Is there a problem with advancing wages in advance because of difficulties at home? Which family doesn't have some difficulties?"

"Right, this is an injury while working for your family, so you must be responsible." The people in her family also followed and echoed.

Ye Ersao continued: "Didn't wake up early in the morning? Talking nonsense with eyes open. Everyone said it was you pulling your own husband that caused him to crush his foot. Who are you treating as a fool?"

Eldest Sister-in-law: "You are harming your own people, what does it have to do with us? We sent him to the hospital at the first time of the incident, and paid for the medical expenses. We didn't leave him there and not care. You should be stealing joy."

"If it goes out, our family is in the right. Don't think about blackmailing us. Still want to manage us to be responsible? Why don't you let us support your whole family for old age?"

The two groups of people argued directly on the main road. Haozi on the cart was in so much pain that he didn't have the mood to speak, but watching them argue endlessly, he had to speak.

"Stop arguing, let's talk when we get back."

"Words must be made clear, otherwise we have to change medicine later, and he can't work, where will the money come from..."

Ye Yaodong said a sentence, then put his hands in his pockets and didn't argue with the women. He watched them coldly. Seeing Haozi speak, he said unhurriedly.

"Go back and let the village committee judge. How he got injured, anyway, the workers who were working all saw it. If the village committee also says that the subsequent medical expenses must be paid by me, then I will pay. If it's not my responsibility, don't even think about it."

"Right, let the village committee judge. No one has anything to say. How he got injured, anyway, everyone saw it."

His wife still wanted to argue, "Your family has people working there, of course the village committee stands on your side."

"Roll, you. All the villagers in the village are watching. If it's unreasonable, can they still stand on my side?"

After speaking, he left directly and didn't argue with them. Anyway, he sent him to the hospital at the first time, and he had done his best. Now that it was wrapped up, let them push it back themselves, so as not to walk together and argue endlessly, making his head big.

"Let's go, Mom, let them push it back themselves. Anyway, if they have opinions, go to the village committee and say it."

"Hey, not a bit of face left, still thinking about blackmailing us. What kind of people..." Ye Mu cursed and hurriedly followed.

The people behind were also clamoring there, and passersby couldn't help but take a few extra looks.

Ye Mu cursed while walking, "What a disaster, a pest. The woman in the family is not clear-headed, not a fuel-efficient lamp. Shouldn't have let him come to work, now it's causing a lot of trouble."

Ye Ersao: "Right, should have just left him there in the morning and not cared. Anyway, it was their own quarrel that crushed his foot, what does it have to do with us."

Eldest Sister-in-law: "It's also deserved. Heard that today is the 10th birthday of that woman's eldest nephew, and she wanted to pack a red envelope or something. It is estimated that she said this, so she thought about advancing wages in advance."

Ye Yaodong had black lines all over his head.

"Doing ten" is a custom they have here. 10 years old, 20 years old, 30 years old, 40 years old, 50 years old, etc. Every ten years, there is a celebration. For young ages, give a red envelope to buy clothes, shoes, and socks, just express it. For older ages, it depends on the family's conditions.

It really is a vampire, sucking from old to young. It's too scary...

It's really doing human favors all year round, and everything earned is subsidized to the mother's family in various names.

So miserable!

Marrying such a wife, so miserable!

Generally, when people talk about marriage, they like families with many brothers on the mother's side. The more brothers, the more they can give birth, and the more prosperous the family, the better. But it also depends on when. When earning work points before, of course, the more labor, the better, and life can be more prosperous.

But this is not a good thing for the son-in-law. If one doesn't do well, they will be threatened by the wife's family and come to the door. Haozi became cowardly little by little like this.

Ye Ersao looked disgusted, "Does her family have seven or eight brothers or how many? Each of them gave birth to two or three children. This is really from top to bottom, human favors are endless."

"And one or two who haven't married are almost there..." Ye Mu could be said to be the news reporter in the village, basically knowing all the big and small things.

"That's another large sum of money!"

Eldest Sister-in-law couldn't help but shudder. It's too scary, what's earned is not enough to pay out.

According to local customs, if brothers are married, they don't need red envelopes if they are unmarried, but the red envelopes for married daughters must be given very large!

As for how the mother's family collects it, it depends on the mother's family's meaning. If they love their daughter, they will collect less. If they are bloodsuckers, they will deduct everything and only return a little superficial gift.

"No face left, there are all kinds of people."

"Go home first. Delayed until now, starving to death. If I had known, I wouldn't have cared. A group of black-hearted people just thinking about blackmailing. If they come to the door to make trouble later, call the village committee to judge."

"Right, all took them to the hospital to see, wrapped up, already enough. Don't care about the rest."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said one sentence each, on the same front.

It was also fortunate that they followed, otherwise, how would Ye Yaodong argue with that group of women?

Ye Yaodong associated it with Ye Yaofan who had just gone to work a few days ago. These days, hearing Aqing talk about it, he looked like he was working decently.

Originally, he belonged to the type who worked honestly without using his brain, pointing where to hit where. It's just that he didn't know if the family in the rear would catch fire and cause him trouble.

No matter what you do, you are afraid of inserting a pile of relatives and friends. Sometimes it's really hard to refuse, and you have to talk about human feelings. Ye Yaofan was also actively mentioned by the old lady, so he had to keep him first.

Hope there won't be any more situations. If the weather is good, it will be finished in another month.

Originally, it could be faster, but he saw that there were many stones chiseled down from the mountain two days ago, so he temporarily decided to build a flat-layer small house, which would be convenient for his father or someone to sleep and watch at night when drying fish.

At the gate, he also asked people to make two dog kennels. When the ground is finally leveled, it will be finished.

Thinking so, but in his heart, he was secretly looking forward to some small trouble, so that he could legitimately not let people come to work.

He shook his head, he couldn't think like that.

The four of them talked all the way, but it didn't delay their pace. In the hot weather, they all wished they could go home quickly, trying to walk in the shade of trees or along the mountain side, and the distance from the group behind was getting further and further.

When they arrived home, a group of children who had returned from school were all eating at Lin Xiuqing's place.

"Eldest Sister-in-law, Ye Ersao, no need to go back, just eat here. It's troublesome for one person to start a fire. Anyway, I have to cook for so many workers, so I cooked a little more at once. The children have all finished eating."

"Then we'll just eat two mouthfuls casually at your place."

"It's hot, it's troublesome for you to run around with us. I packed a few bowls of dishes separately, thinking you should be able to come back at noon. How is Haozi's injury? What did they say?"

"The bones are cracked, plaster cast, fixed with wooden boards, injury to muscles and bones for 100 days, can't move, need to rest well."

"So serious?" Lin Xiuqing was surprised, and then relieved, "Also, looking at the liberation shoes seeping blood earlier, with such a big rock crushed down, it's normal for bones to be broken."

Ye Mu was unhappy, "Don't talk about it. They still want to blackmail us. We argued on the way there, and argued again on the way back. I'll go out and publicize it in the afternoon. If they come to the door to make trouble, remember to go to the village committee to call people, so as not to be unclear."

"Everyone said it was his wife pulling him that caused him to crush his foot. What does it have to do with us? It's already enough that we sent people to the hospital."

"Right, but there aren't that many honest people. These are all cunning, aiming to rely on us, so I told you, if people come to make trouble, go to the village committee to find someone to judge."

"Dongzi and the others might go to sea again tomorrow. If they don't come to make trouble today, they will definitely come to make trouble tomorrow or in two days when they want money. They won't just let it go. You won't be able to handle it alone."

"I know."

"Eat first. Later, ask the foreman to push the cart back to his house. Has Dad not come back yet?" Ye Yaodong turned to look at Lin Xiuqing and asked.

"Not yet, estimated it won't be that fast."

"Mm, then it should be afternoon."

He looked at the time. It was almost 1 o'clock. If he wanted to go, it would be too late. It was estimated that they were already on the way back.

"Unlucky, originally you specially rested for a day, thinking of going to the county town to see the fishing boat water test, but it was delayed until now. Even if you go, it's estimated to be too late. Fortunately, your father followed to take a look, so we can know it ourselves."

"Forget it, if it's too late, it's too late. Anyway, Dad and the others are watching. Next time our own boat is launched, we'll go see it ourselves."

"Forget it, if it's too late, then it's too late. Anyway, it's fine as long as Father and the others are there to watch. Next time our own boat is launched, we'll go watch it ourselves."
