Mother and daughter broke up unhappy, lying back to back on the bed, neither of them spoke first.

The next morning, Yang Huamei prepared breakfast and brought it to the house. Mrs. Tan had already combed her gray hair into a neat mess.

"Mom, it's time to have breakfast. I made your favorite egg fried rice." Yang Huamei said.

Mrs. Tan patted the wooden box and a small bundle beside her and said, "I've packed everything and I'll leave after breakfast."

Yang Huamei thought she had heard wrong, and suddenly raised her head, and saw Mrs. Tan saying calmly: "I've been staying at your house for more than ten days, and it's time to go back."

If he doesn't go back, the old man's leg will be broken if he runs away. The punishment for him is about the same, Ms. Tan thought secretly in her heart.

"Mom, did you decide to go back on your own, or did you go back because you were annoyed by what I said last night?" Yang Huamei asked cautiously.

Mrs. Tan twitched her lips and stretched out her hand towards Yang Huamei.

Yang Huamei quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands and came over to hold Tan's hand.

Mrs. Tan pulled Yang Huamei closer and freed up a hand to stroke Yang Huamei's hair.

"Silly Mei'er, you are my daughter. The flesh that fell off your body will not make me angry with anyone," said Tan.

Yang Huamei looked at Tan's gray hair and wrinkles on her face, her heart moved, and she almost shed tears.

"mother……"

Just as she choked up, Wang Hongquan's surprised voice suddenly came from the yard outside the house: "My father-in-law?"

Yang Huamei quickly raised her hand to wipe the moisture from the corners of her eyes, stood up and said, "Great, my father must have come to pick you up again. I'll go out and take a look..."

"Don't look, I'm in." Lao Yangtou's voice immediately sounded at the door of the house, and the man strode into the house.

"Dad, are you here to take mother home? Have you had breakfast?" Yang Huamei greeted her with a smile.

Behind her, Ms. Tan was sitting on the edge of the bed. When she heard the noise, Ms. Tan moved her buttocks and turned sideways, deliberately not looking at Lao Yang's head directly, and snorted in her nostrils.

Well, this is the old lady's last attempt to get her way, or to raise her profile.

But she deliberately left the bundle roll and the wooden box exposed for Old Yang to see. This was called giving him hope. When he climbed up the pole and coaxed her again, she half-pushed and half-heartedly agreed, and by the way, she gave him a few more shots.

Under the conditions, let him accept defeat so that he can go home openly.

But what Old Yangtou said next made Tan think there was something wrong with his ears.

"I haven't eaten yet. I'll go to your third brother's house to eat later. I'm here to deliver clothes to your mother." Old Yang said, then he took out a big baggage roll from behind and threw it on the bed, landing next to Tan.

.

Mrs. Tan quickly reached out to touch the big bundle roll, which felt familiar to her hands. It contained her winter cotton clothes, jacket, cotton shoes and socks.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Yang Huamei asked in confusion, "My mother will go back later, there is no need to send clothes over!"

Behind him, Wang Hongquan came to the rescue with a smile: "Your father didn't know that your mother was going back. He felt sorry for your mother. Seeing that it was getting colder today, he was afraid that you would freeze, so he sent clothes here..."

"You're not the roundworm in my stomach, how do you know so much?" Old Yang turned his head and asked angrily.

Wang Hongquan's last words were stuck in his throat, and the smile on his face froze.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.

Yang Huamei coughed slightly and brought the topic back: "Dad, you can take these clothes back later, my mother is going back..."

"Don't go back!"

Lao Yang raised his head and interrupted Yang Huamei's words.

"I have seen it clearly during this period and figured it out. This strong-willed melon is not sweet. Since your mother likes to stay with your family, then let her stay. You, as well as your father-in-law, all

Taking care of her with all your heart and relieving her boredom is indeed much more interesting than following a bad old man like me, right? Father-in-law? Is there anything wrong with what I say? "

Old Yang turned his head and asked Wang Hongquan a meaningful question.

Wang Hongquan had an indescribable feeling.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with what Old Yangtou said. During this period, the whole family has indeed tried their best to take care of the Tan family. But why does it always feel so strange when hearing Old Yangtou's words?

"My father-in-law, you can't say that. Although Mei'er is the daughter of my mother-in-law, it is only natural for her to stay at her house for a while, and we will do our best to take care of her. But my mother-in-law is the mistress of your old Yang family after all. My sons and daughters-in-law,

There are many children and grandchildren.”

"The third child and the others are said to be filial. The third daughter-in-law and the fifth daughter-in-law come to my house every now and then to visit my mother-in-law. It is not convenient, and I am worried. It is better for my mother-in-law to go back. We will stay here next time, so we will do the same.

Welcome! Or you can ask Shuanzi to pick it up, that’s fine!”

Old Yangtou watched with cold eyes as Wang Hongquan finished his polite words over the meal, and then twitched his lips: "You don't understand, she doesn't want to go anywhere now, she just likes to stay at your house. It's so happy here, hehe, old lady, what do you say?

Isn’t it..."

Before he could finish asking, a pillow hit Old Yang's head, followed by Tan's curses: "You old bastard who has eaten too much shit and spits shit all over your mouth, get out of here, I am.

If I die outside, I won’t go back to the east room to live with you. This is where we will end up in this life. You go away, you go away..."

Old Yangtou picked up the pillow on the ground and stuffed it into Yang Huamei's hand, and said with a dark face: "You have seen and heard it. Your mother is not willing to go back, so that's it."

After saying these words, Old Yangtou turned around and left the house.

Yang Huamei and Wang Hongquan chased him into the yard. Wang Hongquan stopped Lao Yangtou, and Yang Huamei tried to persuade him, but to no avail.

In the room behind her, Mrs. Tan's cries and curses became louder and louder. From the sound of the noise, she seemed to be breaking things.

"That's it!" Old Yangtou took one last look at the noisy room, frowned and left.

Yang Huamei and Wang Hongquan's wife were left standing there with big eyes wide open.

"Dad, I haven't understood what's going on until now. My father's attitude was not like this when he came over yesterday afternoon. He even teased my mother, but my mother didn't give him a good face. Why?

After sleeping for one night, it’s like he’s a different person?” Yang Huamei asked.

Even Wang Hongquan can’t answer this question.

"Everything must happen for a reason. You go inside first to appease your mother. I'll go to the house of your third brother and sister-in-law at the entrance of the village to see if they know anything." Wang Hongquan said.

Yang Huamei nodded repeatedly, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went their separate ways for the time being.

In the room, Ms. Tan became so angry that she cursed the eighteen generations of the old Yang family. Then she cried and talked about how difficult it was for her to give birth to children for Mr. Yang in the past decades. Finally, she cried until her heart broke.
