Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Chapter 192: Chapter 192: A Scolding_1

“Mom, you might’ve forgotten, our third brother has been serving in the military, and sent his salary home every month. But what did you do with his money? You used it for our eldest brother’s house repairs, for our second brother’s house repairs, for our sisters’ dowries. Every single expense used some of his money. You should think about it. I’m heading back first. When I have time, I will visit the town, hoping to find our third brother’s wife, and I’ll check on our third brother and Little Huzi. I’m leaving now.”

Yun Shuang had nothing more to say; these years, it wasn’t the eldest or the second brother who contributed most to this family, but the third brother.

Was it possible that such a well-behaved and good child had been overlooked like this?

She recalled when she married, her third brother laughed, saying, ‘Big sister, if your husband doesn’t treat you well, I will make him pay. If you need anything, just write to me.’

Neither her eldest nor her second brothers had said anything of the sort. It was not that their third brother avoided such promises, but rather, he proved his dedication through his actions.

It was because of these actions that he had such a good relationship with his wife. Even now, after he had fallen, his wife remained committed to him.

How had Mom seen the efforts of the eldest and the second brothers, but failed to see the efforts of the third brother?

Yun Shuang arrived quickly, and left just as swiftly, leaving their mother standing in shock.

When her husband came back, carrying a load of pig feed, he found his wife dazed.

“Do you feel unwell? Should we go see a doctor?”

“Just now, Shuangshuang scolded me, saying that for all these years our third son had put a lot into the family—building homes for our eldest and second sons, and providing for our daughters’ weddings. All these had the third’s touch.”

The father understood his eldest daughter’s personality—she didn’t tolerate injustice.

The bond between the two siblings was tight, and their ages were not far apart.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Shuangshuang is right. Ever since the third joined the military and started earning a stipend, he sent money home every month. Over the years, it’s accumulated to several thousands, but only a few hundred was used for Hanhan’s marriage. As for the rest, you know better than me where it went. I don’t blame her for yelling.”

“Shuangshuang also said that our eldest and second sons won’t support us when we’re old.” The mother’s heart ached because it was the truth.

The eldest son’s family had always prioritized their maternal family.

The second son’s wife, while good to her children and husband, was stingy to anyone else.

“We’re still young, we can still make a living. Right now, we don’t need their support.”

Originally, his wife wanted to move in with their third son. He also thought that the third son was good and his daughter-in-law was virtuous. However, after this incident, their daughter-in-law now harbored deep resentment.

“I birthed three sons, and what have I done all these years? Raised a pack of ingrates, ingrates.” The mother began to cry.

“What’s there to cry about? It’s not like we can’t make ends meet. This should serve as a lesson for us. In the future, if the eldest and second sons’ families need something, we’ll say we’re helpless, and refuse their requests.”

“It’s not too late to wake up. From now on, we’ll eat the chickens and meat we want, and stop saving everything for their children. They have parents that can take care of them.”

The mother wiped her tears and replied, “Yes, I was too optimistic before. I thought that they had good relationships as brothers, but when the third encountered trouble, their true colors showed. I’m extremely disheartened, utterly disheartened. You were once an accountant, with a light workload. You resigned for the second brother and now you do heavy labor work. It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault.”
