I Became a Vicious Supporting Role in the '70s-Chapter 312: What My Sister-in-Law Said

Wu Xianglan’s brothers, clenching their fists, swung vigorously upwards and had no intention of entering the house.

Liu Sanjin, running out of options, jogged over to Wu Xianglan to plead.

"Xiang Lan, we’re all family, why make it so ugly? Isn’t it just making us a laughing stock to outsiders? You hold a secure government job now, even if just for your own reputation, you can’t let your brothers continue like this!"

"Now you remember we’re family. When you were bullying us three, why didn’t you say we were family? When you schemed for my money, why didn’t you count us as family? I married into the Lu Family and gave you a grandson, and this is how you repay me? These years I might not have made great contributions, but I’ve at least endured hardships, right? Why am I always the one to be bullied?"

"Xiang Lan, if you’re feeling aggrieved, just tell me in private, why bring your eldest and younger uncles here? There’s so much to be done in the fields, this surely hinders people from earning work points."

Lu Jiahe spoke through gritted teeth to Wu Xianglan, the warning very clear.

Unfortunately, before Wu Xianglan could respond, her older brother punched Lu Jiahe to the side, sending him staggering a few steps before falling to the ground.

"What are you doing, what are you all doing? Even if you are relatives, you can’t just hit people like that. Let me tell you, my daughter-in-law works at the County Government, and if she finds out you bully people like this, she definitely won’t let you off."

Shen Meng rolled her eyes upon hearing this, always getting brought up as a shield when needed, what a thick face!

"Hey, don’t bring up my elder sister-in-law. What do you privately say about her? Calling her the criminal of Lu Family Village, saying how she makes the village women settle at home not doing any work, always quarreling with their men. She’s bound for trouble. I’m not lying, it’s all from your own words. But my elder sister-in-law also said, if anyone feels unjust, go find the village chief and Secretary, they might consider letting your women stay home because, after all, a month’s salary of dozens of yuan, who wouldn’t take that over someone who curses their own mother after meals."

Wu Xianglan’s words made those who were watching the Lu family’s misfortune in anticipation stand stunned for a moment, their eyes then widening.

"Xiang Lan, are those words of yours true?"

"It would still be false? My sister-in-law said, if anyone complains, Director Guo has already approved it, but anyone who leaves the Head Flower Factory can never go back, no matter whose help you get, they will never be able to work there again."

Wu Xianglan spoke arrogantly, she had no worries for herself, her elder sister-in-law had said to make as much fuss as needed, and after dealing with the issues, she could go back to work in the textile factory.

"Who, who the hell is slandering Shen Meng, that son of a bitch who talks about her, if Old Meng knows, she’ll hack their whole family apart. Now I can support the family with my skills, earning a salary of 36 yuan a month, and even study in the factory, such a good job I never dared to dream of for a lifetime, now anyone speaking against Shen Meng is picking a fight with me."

"And me, and me, what criminal of Lu Family Village, she’s the great benefactor of Lu Family Village, even recognized by the province, if anyone wants to live a hard life go do it, but don’t drag our family into it, my old lady, although temporary, makes over ten yuan a month, and we can afford meat twice a month now, sometimes the factory even issues wheat flour, if my old man finds out who’s slandering Xiao Meng, hehe, just see if my ax agrees."

"Old Mrs. Liu, well for you dragging your eldest daughter-in-law into this, yet still resenting her, really shameless."

"That’s right, and criminal, where did that come from? I need to find the village chief to report their bad-mouthing of the deputy factory director, let their whole family not get away with it."

"I’m going too, I’m going, damned idiots, what can be said and what can’t still unknown by now, serves your family right to be poor, utterly deserved."

........

Some people were going to find the village chief and the Secretary, others were furiously gripping their husbands by the collar.

"I’ve finally gotten to live decently, if you dare tell me not to go to work, just wait, I’ll castrate you."

"I wouldn’t dare, wife, how could I dare? Our home relies on your salary to eat a full meal, I’m not stupid, how could I possibly do such a thing!"

Someone mentioned their own man, and then there were two, even those who were just clamoring to report to village chief were gripping their men’s collars, afraid they might actually go and sign up.

Shen Meng turned around and went back to the yard when everyone else turned away.

The old yard was noisy, Wu Xianglan was adamant, and her brothers wouldn’t leave but stayed at the Lu Family’s house, Lu Jiahe couldn’t beat them, nor could Lu Jiaxuan, who kept saying "This is an insult to our culture."

Of course, there was a response.

"Culture my ass."

Wu Xianglan took out three yuan from her pocket, which was a month’s living expense, Liu Sanjin saw the money coming but hesitated to take it.

Wu Family’s eldest brother directly placed the money handed over by his sister into Liu Sanjin’s hand, then started cooking at the Lu Family’s house, and Wu Family’s second brother even went to the hen house and killed a chicken.

After a hearty meal, they then went back home together, not without threatening Lu Jiahe the whole time, who didn’t dare raise his head.

The next morning.

Wu Xianglan and Yu Xueli took Uncle Guai’s oxcart toward the county, along the way Yu Xueli hesitated for a long time before asking: "Are you still planning to be with Lu Jiahe? Look at his pathetic state, can you still share a bed with him?"

"What’s the big deal, I can’t just get a divorce and let him be with that vixen, and I can’t take my child away, I’m not that foolish. I’ll just stick with him for life, and once I’ve saved enough money, I’ll find myself a lover too, hmph, let him wear a big green hat."

Yu Xueli: "......"

That’s some strong spirit!!!

Shen Meng was enjoying the cool in his own field, Ming Liang picked a larger muskmelon and took it home to wash, thinking of cutting it into pieces and putting it in a bowl for his mother.

But just as he was about to reach the door, he saw a car driving up, he stepped back, afraid it might run over his feet.

Secretary Tang got out of the car and saw the frowning little guy staring hard at the jeep.

"Uncle Tang, what are you doing? You almost ran over my foot just now."

Secretary Tang: "....."

Keep bragging, you didn’t see how far it was from you.

Hearing Ming Liang’s voice, Li Chuan directly came out of the car, Ming Liang saw it was Li Chuan, and immediately smiled.

"Grandpa Li, you’re here, I haven’t seen you for days, I’ve missed you."

Secretary Tang: "...."

Such a bootlicker!!!
