Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 340 Military Wives in Historical Fiction 4

Sun's mother was unhappy about Qingmo's recent unusual behavior, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she had her eldest grandson write it all down in a letter and secretly send it to Sun Jianmin.

She can't be a bad mother-in-law; she still has to get along with her daughter-in-law. Of course, it's up to her son to discipline his daughter-in-law.

Her son is in the army, how could he not keep his daughter-in-law in check?

When Sun's mother handed over two yuan, Qingmo knew that Sun Jianmin must have married Wu Hongmei and was now supporting two families, so the money he sent back was no less.

"Mother, why are there only two yuan? Did you pocket all of Jianmin's allowance?"

Sun's mother's face stiffened, and she quickly explained, "My dear, you can't say things like that. Jianmin only sent ten yuan back this time, and I didn't keep it for myself."

"What? Ten yuan?"

"Is he trying to fob me off like a beggar? I asked you to write him a letter forty yuan, and he only gave me ten. He's going to starve his whole family."

Qingmo immediately jumped up and down, looking like she was about to rush to the army and fight Sun Jianmin to the death.

Sun's mother was also a little embarrassed. She felt that her son's actions were not right, as he only sent back such a small amount of money.

She saves all her money, so what will she save this ten yuan for in the future? But she still has to speak up for her son.

“Ni’er, you mustn’t be impulsive. Jianmin has his own difficulties. He’s not having an easy time in the army either.”

“He said in his letter that he donated the money to the widow of his comrade-in-arms, who sacrificed herself to save him. He will have to send money to her every month from now on. Our family cannot be ungrateful.”

"A widow? What widow? She's probably his lover. He pretends to be a good person, but he gave all the money to her. What are we going to do? Am I supposed to support her?"

Upon hearing this, Sun's mother panicked. "Nier, you can't say such things. Jianmin isn't that kind of person. If people find out, it will affect his career in the army."

"Fine! Sun Jianmin won't pay, we can't live like this anymore. From now on, the kids in the family won't have to go to that lousy school anymore. They'll all come home and work cutting pig feed for me. Do you really think I, Yan Ni'er, am easy to bully?"

“That won’t do, that won’t do. Only by studying can one get ahead. I won’t talk about San Niu, but Da Wa and Er Wa won’t. Ni’er, it’s not a big deal. We can get by no matter what.”

Upon hearing this, Qingmo spat a mouthful of phlegm onto her mother's face, exclaiming, "Pah!"

“You old bastard, you eat my food and drink my water, and you even make me support three burdens. I haven’t touched Sun Jianmin’s allowance. The whole family depends on my work. You’re just trying to bleed me dry.”

Qingmo jumped up and ran to the woodshed to get a stick. She then went up and started whipping the four children playing in the yard.

Forget about biological parents; everyone gets their share of the spoils, at most he'll just get hit a few less times.

“I’ll beat you all to death, you burdens! Your father doesn’t want you anymore. He’d rather raise other people’s children than raise you.”

"It's all your fault, it's all your fault for having so many children, preventing your old mother from going to join the army."

The children were beaten and cried loudly, running around the yard. Grandma Sun was heartbroken.

She quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Ni'er, what are you doing? Let's talk this out, don't hit the child!"

Qingmo went berserk, waving a stick and cursing, "It's all your Sun family's fault! I'm a military wife, not a peasant. If it weren't for you, would I be able to work in the fields all day?"

Can't stop it, can't stop it at all.

Qingmo was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, unleashing a furious barrage of blows. Several children were left with bruises and cuts, and Sun's mother was frantic with worry, but there was nothing she could do.

She should be thankful that she was the mother-in-law, and a kind-faced but ruthless one at that, otherwise the stick would have fallen on her.

Such a commotion in the yard naturally attracted the attention of the neighbors, but in the countryside, beating children is commonplace, and no one bothered to interfere.

Besides, Qingmo isn't abusing her stepchildren. She even beats her own children. What's there to say about that?

She made no mistakes, therefore, she did nothing wrong.

"Oh my God! It's all my fault, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me."

"If you want to hit someone, hit me instead. Don't hit the children. I'm the one who's dragged you down, Nier. Stop."

Is this foam obedient?

If she were obedient, she wouldn't be a good daughter-in-law.

Hearing the commotion, Old Mrs. Yan also rushed over from her home to see what was going on. Good heavens, her daughter really went all out.

This old lady is selfish too. She doesn't care about grandchildren or anything like that. As long as her daughter doesn't hit her, it's no big deal.

Her daughter used to be such an obedient child. For her to throw such a tantrum, it must be the fault of the Sun family. What could her daughter have done wrong?

The old lady watched with great interest while cracking pumpkin seeds.

Sun's mother had good eyesight; when she saw her, it was like seeing a savior, and she quickly came over to pull her away.

"Mother-in-law, please tell Ni'er to stop! What if she hurts the child?!"

Grandma Yan waved her hand, "Oh dear, in-laws, we shouldn't interfere when it comes to educating the child. Ni'er knows what she's doing."

Grandma Yan said slowly, cracking sunflower seeds.

Upon hearing this, Sun's mother almost burst into tears, "My dear in-law, this is almost a fight to the death, how can we just stand by and do nothing!"

"It's okay, it's okay. I've been fighting with Ni'er's brother since we were kids, and the more we fight, the tougher we get."

"You worry too much. Look at me, don't I look much younger than you?"

Sun's mother had heard that Yan's mother was a scoundrel, but she didn't believe it. Today, she finally saw it for herself. This old lady didn't care about anyone except herself.

She may not feel sorry for them, but I can't not feel sorry for them; they are her eldest grandsons!

No matter what Ren Sun's mother said, it was no use. Once she got tired of hitting Qingmo, she stopped on her own without anyone having to persuade her.

She dusted herself off and dragged Old Mrs. Yan back to her parents' home. She didn't care about this whole family of wounded soldiers.

At this point, Old Mrs. Yan was not very happy.

Good grief, I shouldn't have let her see me. Now I'll have to go home and mooch off her for dinner again.

"Eat, eat, eat! You brat, you eat at your in-laws' house all the time, but you come back here to eat all the time. I'll be eaten out of house and home by you."

Qingmo took out two yuan from her pocket and handed it to her, and Old Mrs. Yan immediately shut up.

"Hehehe, come back and eat well. No one cooks as well as your mother. Wait for me, little girl, I'll steam some eggs for you."

Hua Hua, watching her grandmother like this, covered her mouth and laughed.

When Qingmo looked over, she immediately became unhappy; her aunt couldn't let her get away with teasing her anymore.
