Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Yun Lei’s smile lit up even more.

At their age, hearing praise from their parents was better than anything else.

But as they left, Zhang Jiang was still in the kitchen, washing dishes.

Thoughts whirled in his mind.

The elder brother knew he had new clothes, but he never asked why his younger brother did not.

Why didn’t their father say anything when it was so clear that their mother favored the elder brother?

Could it really be as his mother-in-law said, that he was not part of this family?

Otherwise why were his parents so blatantly biased?

The elder brother appeared to love him, but why didn’t he share the delicious food and new clothes?

They had known all along and were treating him like a fool.

If it hadn’t been for his sister-in-law’s ferocity, would his parents still have sided with them?

These were his so-called beloved elder brother and parents.

Just as his second brother said, Xiaomen and Little Zhuzi were his real family. From today onwards, he was cutting ties with his parents and elder brother.

His son even shared the food he got from his aunt with him, but where was his mother?

As Zhang Jiang pondered, tears fell drip by drip.

He had been a fool for so many years, such a fool.

What a fool, what a fool.

When his parents were living with him, were they still miss their elder son?

Now he found that something was not right. The chickens his family raised only turned out chickens, they rarely laid eggs. His mother said that the chickens didn’t like to lay eggs, but it turned out she was taking the eggs to the elder brother’s house all these years.

Every time Little Zhuzi went to his grandfather’s house, he received a red envelope, however small. But his own parents never gave Little Zhuzi anything.

Yet he heard Little Zhuzi say that grandma gave a red envelope to the elder brother and sister, not him.

At that time, he thought his son must have been mistaken because he was still young.

“Xiaohong…”

Yun’s mother saw her son-in-law hadn’t delivered the medicine to her daughter yet. She came to the kitchen and found Xiaohong squatting on the floor crying silently.

Zhang Jiang roughly wiped his tears.

“Mother…”

“Xiaohong, the past is the past. Now you need to think about Little Zhuzi, Xiaomen and the children in her belly.”

“Mother, they treated me like a fool since I was young. I’ve lived half of my life; only Xiaomen is good to me. I won’t dwell on the past anymore. I thought my parents would be good to me, I even told Xiaomen to treat my parents well. Now it seems that I am just a fool.” After speaking, Zhang Jiang slapped himself hard on the face.

The sound was so loud that it startled Yun’s mother.

But seeing her son-in-law in such a state, what could Yun’s mother say?

“Let that all be in the past, for your children and Xiaomen, you have to cheer up. Go and prepare the medicine for Xiaomen, I have to go back and check on your third sister-in-law.”

Wiping away his tears, Zhang Jiang responded, “Mother, you’re right, I still have the children and Xiaomen. You go back and check on the third sister-in-law. She is about to give birth.”

“I’ll be back soon.”

Yun’s mother sighed and left to check on Meng Yunhan.

She was afraid her daughter-in-law, with her big belly, was feeding the pigs and cooking their food.

As Yun’s mother feared, she rushed back home and saw smoke was coming out of the chimney. She hurried into the kitchen and found her daughter-in-law sitting in front of the stove, cooking pig feed.

“Mother, you’re back, how is Xiaomen doing, and the children? I was afraid this child would miscarry, so I made her drink spring water and used the spring water to bake pastries.”
