Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Vicious Mother-in-law 24

Ma Laosan’s face changed slightly, somewhat dissatisfied, ”Mom, let me set up a floor bed in your room to sleep, after all, I’m strong, I can handle the damp and cold from the floor. But Yingying is a woman, and Sanlin and Siling are still young, their bodies can’t withstand the wet cold of the winter floor. Mom, let Yingying and Sanlin and Siling squeeze in with Daya and Erya.”

Last night, Ma Xiangling cried to him about the room being taken.

Ma Laosan also knew that their mother favored their elder brother’s family now, so even though he was unhappy about the room being taken, he didn’t dare to go back and fight for it.

Ever since Wang Yingying and the Wang Brothers went to Qinghe Village and were beaten by Yuan Chun, Wang Yingying never wanted to return to Qinghe Village again.

Because of this, Wang Yingying often found fault with Ma Laosan, nitpicking continuously, causing their originally loving relationship, which had never seen a red face, to now involve frequent arguments.

Ma Laosan’s days were uncomfortable; these past few months, he hadn’t gone back even once.

But Yuan Chun, she came to the wool spinning factory every month to collect their wages, and each time when handing over the money, Ma Laosan’s heart bled.

Wang Yingying, however, didn’t want to give it.

Nevertheless, after she first resisted giving her wages, she was pinned to the ground and beaten by Yuan Chun, who also exclaimed outside that she was unfilial, that she failed to hand over her wages to her mother-in-law, disregarding her mother-in-law’s life or death.

Wang Yingying’s reputation was ruined, and the supply and marketing cooperative leaders even had discussions with her, scaring her into not daring to withhold her wages. For this reason, Wang Yingying grew resentful of Yuan Chun, and also of Ma Laosan, believing it was all due to Ma Laosan’s incompetence, failing to properly manage even one elderly lady, causing her life to plunge from heaven to hell.

”Laosan, are you complaining to Mom that I shouldn’t have let your elder brother and sister-in-law move into your room?” Yuan Chun sighed and said, ”Our house was built with your elder brother’s allowance, so it makes no sense to let your elder brother and sister-in-law live in a straw hut while you occupy an empty room. Laosan, you can’t be selfish and heartless to your own brothers.”

”Your elder brother is a hero who safeguarded the country, and now he’s come home wounded. Our family should take genuine care of him rather than bully him.”

”Mom, you’re right, it’s my narrow thinking. I don’t blame you for letting my room be occupied by my elder brother and sister-in-law. I’ll just sleep on the floor in your room when I return for the New Year. However, Mom, Yingying and the children...”

”I know, I know, let your wife and the two children squeeze in with Daya and Erya.”

”Thank you, Mom.”

”Hmph, if you hadn’t pleaded for your wife, I wouldn’t have changed my mind.”

Ma Laosan naturally started flattering, sweet-talking, until there was finally a smile on Yuan Chun’s face. At this moment, Ma Laosan said, ”Mom, you came at the right time today, there’s something I want to discuss with you and Lingzi.”

”What is it?”

Yuan Chun felt that this venomous Laosan wouldn’t bring anything good.

Sure enough, Ma Laosan said, ”Mom, Yingying’s supply and marketing cooperative has a Director Han. His wife recently passed away. Although he’s a bit older and has two children, he has a good job, and his parents are both working, his family background is quite good. Most importantly, he wants to find a village girl, he won’t mind Lingzi being a jobless villager girl. Mom, I want to introduce Lingzi to Director Han. What do you think?”

”Third Brother, are you really my brother? I’m a young unmarried woman, yet you want me to be someone’s stepmother?” Ma Xiangling exclaimed.
