Chapter 130 Is this stepfather any different from the previous father?
After the Yang family finishes their New Year’s Eve dinner, the tasks of cleaning up the dishes and making dumplings are naturally done by the women in the family.
After the dumplings were wrapped, Mrs. Fang cooked a pot for midnight snack and served dumplings to everyone one by one.
The men had a big bowl each, and the women had four. They also said, "Only our Yang family is generous enough to give women dumplings. Go around the countryside and see which women are so lucky?!"
Wang Xinping rolled her eyes when she heard this, and went to complain to her brother with her rice bowl in hand: "Is the man you said married to mom a fake Uncle Yang?
Before, he was very obedient to mom, always saying nice things to her, and was caring to us in every way, even closer to us than his real dad.
Now he seems like a different person, as if he is afraid that we are living a comfortable life. Not only does he find fault with us at home, but he also brings us here to suffer.
What kind of people are this family? I suspect that their brains were left in ancient times during their reincarnation and they forgot to bring them here.
What era is this? Why are we still holding on to those feudal ideas? Eating four dumplings is considered a blessing. Shouldn't women who can eat as they please and be the masters of the household be overjoyed?!"
Wang Tiesheng gave two dumplings from his bowl to Wang Xinping, sneering: "I didn't understand the meaning of 'sanctimonious' and 'sweet words but a sharp tongue' before, but now I understand it thoroughly.
It's a pity that our mother always lives in her own world and is unwilling to believe that the man beside her is a bad person. "
Wang Tiesheng didn’t know much about Yang Jinlin before, and thought that he was pursuing her because he really liked his mother.
He would be very happy if he had a complete family and was loved by his father, so he did not stop his mother from remarrying.
His grandfather once secretly told him that Yang Jinlin was not a good person and he should be careful of him. He thought his grandfather was narrow-minded and deliberately trying to sow discord among their family.
But after spending some time together, especially when his younger sister was born, he realized that his grandfather had not lied to him. Yang Jinlin looked honest on the outside, but he was full of bad intentions. But his mother believed him like a fool and no amount of persuasion would persuade him.
Other families celebrate the New Year happily, making plans for the coming year and expressing good wishes to each other. Only the atmosphere in the Yang family is weird, which makes people feel indescribable anger.
Wang Tiesheng didn't know what to do with his life, he was very confused...
The house where Yang Kaiyun and his family live has had all its furniture and belongings newly purchased since it was "cleaned out" by Zhou Rong.
Yang Jinsen and Jin Mei did not win the bid for the construction workers position at the steel plant, and continued to work as helpers at the docks. The wages were low and the work was tiring, and they could not bear it after a while, so they stayed at home to help paste matchboxes and do other odd jobs.
However, the factory did not provide many outsourcing assignments, and there was not work every day. If it were not for the support of Yang Jinlin and Feng Qiaolan, and the monthly salary of over 100,000 yuan from Yang Yaodi, they would not even be able to make ends meet.
With money in hand, they were not worried. Yang Kaiyun and Fang Pozi started to "live frugally" again. Although they had saved more than 70 yuan and had cloth coupons given by Feng Qiaolan, they did not want to spend more money and only prepared a set of winter clothes and a quilt for each person.
So Feng Qiaolan and the others had to stay overnight, but there were no extra beds or beddings, so they had to squeeze with other people.
In order to save money, only three beds were set up at home, one for the old couple Yang Kaiyun; one for Yang Jinsen, Jinmei and Daniu; and one for Dani, Erni and Yang Yaochen, who occasionally went home for a night's rest during the holidays.
In order to accommodate everyone, Yang Jinlin let Fang Pozi, Jinmei, Daniu, Feng Qiaolan and Sini sleep in the same bed; he himself shared a bed with Yang Jinsen, Yang Kaiyun and Wang Tiesheng, and Wang Xinping squeezed into the bed of Dani and the others.
Although the person was arranged, the quilt was too small and thin, and was not enough to cover him.
In the middle of the night, Si Ni started coughing and had a slight fever.
Because Yang Yaodi rolled up the quilt, Wang Xinping, who was sleeping at the edge, had half of her body exposed and her nose soon became blocked.
Feng Qiaolan noticed that Si Ni was sick and became very anxious. She wanted to wake up Yang Jinlin and take the child to the hospital.
Granny Fang said unhappily, "What are you doing in the middle of the night? It's just a little cough and fever. Just apply a cold towel. The child is very tough. There's no need to go to the hospital and waste money!"
Jinlin and the others had just finished setting off firecrackers and had just gone to bed. You woke him up in such a cold weather. What if he gets sick?"
Whenever there was no food at home, Mrs. Fang would go to the government compound to look for her youngest son and daughter-in-law.
Yang Jinlin didn't like to meddle in other people's affairs. Feng Qiaolan gave him a lot of money and things because they were family. She thought her filial piety could win the love of her in-laws, but she didn't expect them to be like this.
Feng Qiaolan said disappointedly: "Si Ni is only two months old, how strong can she be? There is no medicine at home. If it gets worse, the consequences will be disastrous. If you don't want to take care of it, forget it. I will take her to the hospital myself."
When Mrs. Fang saw Feng Qiaolan talking back, she said with a sullen face, "Which hospital would be open on New Year's Eve? If you want to go, go by yourself, don't bother us! You treat a money-losing thing like a treasure!"
Feng Qiaolan was so angry that she clenched her fists, put on her clothes angrily, and was about to leave with Si Ni in her arms.
Wang Xinping had a stuffy nose and got up to get some hot water. She found her mother holding her little sister and seemed to be going out. She asked hurriedly, "Mom, where are you going?"
Feng Qiaolan: "Si Ni is sick, I'll take her to the hospital."
"I will go with you!"
Wang Xinping quickly changed her shoes and woke up Wang Tiesheng.
Yang Jinlin was woken up and said unhappily, "What are you doing making so much noise in the middle of the night? Do you want to sleep or not?!"
Wang Tiesheng said coldly: "My little sister is sick, and mom wants to take her to the hospital. You get up and go with us."
Yang Jinlin said sleepily, "Aren't you and Xinping going to accompany me? Can't three people take care of a child? I just went to bed and I feel very dizzy. You guys go by yourselves and be careful on the road."
Wang Tiesheng glared at Yang Jinlin, slammed the door and stormed out, went to the kitchen and took away all the cured fish, cured meat, sausages and other things they had brought, then took a flashlight and accompanied his mother and sister to the hospital...
Looking at the red lanterns hanging on other people's doorsteps and the laughter of some people who were still playing cards, Feng Qiaolan hugged Si Ni and felt so sad that she wanted to cry.
She buried her head in Sini's swaddling clothes and quietly wiped away the tears that were flowing down her cheeks.
Wang Xinping sniffed and said in a hoarse voice: "Mom, is this stepfather any different from my previous father?
It's nothing more than one uses fists to hurt us, and the other uses a soft knife to kill people, but I don't like either of them. Can we get rid of them?"
Feng Qiaolan said sadly: "If we divorce, your and Tiesheng's reputation will be affected, and Si Ni is so young, how can we support her?"
Wang Tiesheng: "Mom, you have a fixed salary and allowance every month, which is enough for our family to eat and drink. In two years, I will be able to work and we can support my little sister.
The Yang family is like blood suckers. Have you ever calculated how much money that old woman has asked you for? Without them, our lives would be so comfortable. Why do you want to make yourself unhappy? "
Feng Qiaolan pondered for a moment and said, "Let me think about it. Don't tell the Yang family what you just said. Don't tell grandpa and grandma what happened in the Yang family. Wait until I make a decision."
Wang Tiesheng: “Okay!”
