Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 341 Military Wives in Historical Fiction 5

Ever since the fight, Qingmo and the Sun family have been unable to maintain their facade of harmony.

Sun's mother no longer greeted her with a smile; she finally revealed her true nature as a wicked mother-in-law.

Since her daughter-in-law won't respond to gentle persuasion, she'll have to try a tougher approach.

"Ni'er, starting today, if you don't go to work, you won't eat. Our Sun family doesn't support idlers. What family brings a wife home to enjoy life?"

"Fine, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat. But Mother, give me all the money Jianmin has sent back over the years. I'm his wife, it's not fair to give you all the money.

“I am his mother, the one in charge of this family. How can a daughter-in-law be in charge? Don’t you look at other people’s daughters-in-law? They’ve been tormented like this. Girl, you don’t know how lucky you are.”

He picked at the vegetable leaves in his mouth. Great, Qingmo's fist hardened again.

"Yes, yes, you're right, Mom. You're my mother, and I'll listen to you. But I'm also the mother of Da Wa and the others, so they should listen to me too. I'll go to school and bring them back right now."

"you dare?"

“What’s there to be afraid of? You can be in charge of the household, and I can take care of my children too. They’re not going to school anymore, so they can come back and work for me, saving us money.”

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the school. Sun's mother was so anxious that she stomped her feet behind her, but she couldn't catch up with her.

Seriously, this road is really long. If it were her, getting up early and working late, this lousy school wouldn't be worth it.

Upon arriving at the school, Qingmo immediately led Dawa, Erwa, and Sanniu out.

The three children looked bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

"Stepmother, what brings you here?"

They were a little scared when they saw Qingmo.

At first, I thought this stepmother was a good person, unlike other stepmothers who abuse their stepsons. But now her true colors have been revealed; she doesn't treat them like human beings anymore.

"Stop talking nonsense. Just leave when I tell you to. Wait here. I need to go find a teacher to take care of something."

Qingmo quickly completed the formalities for the group, and some of the tuition fees were refunded, despite the teacher's strong objections.

Qingmo only asked, "What, teacher? Are you going to do farm work for my family? Or are you going to raise our children for us?"

These days, teachers' salaries aren't high, and besides, in the countryside, there are quite a few children who help with chores at a very young age.

The teacher naturally had no right to say anything, and could only sigh in regret.

What's there to regret? These kids are just average students, not geniuses at all. It's a complete waste of money.

Qingmo led the children and hurried back.

The older child mustered his courage and asked, "Stepmother, why won't you let us go to school anymore?"

Qingmo said irritably, "Your dad won't give you any money, he can't afford to feed you anymore, so go home and cut pig feed."

"No, we don't want to cut pig feed."

It didn't really matter to the two boys, but it was different for San Niu. She knew that for girls, education was the only path, and she didn't want to be like the other girls in the village.

Qingmo glanced at her but said nothing.

Since the matter is already settled, can they do whatever they want?

On the way, the group encountered Sun's mother, who was panting heavily. This was because she was getting old; her legs simply couldn't keep up with Qingmo.

"You guys? Big kid, did your stepmother really go to school?"

The eldest son nodded obediently. He also hoped that his grandmother could control his stepmother, as he didn't want to go back to work.

"Yan Nier, are you really going to send them back to gather pig feed? You heartless bastard, how can you be so cruel?"

“A stepmother is a stepmother. What did Jianmin do to deserve marrying such a vicious woman like you?”

Qingmo crossed her arms: "Oh, so now you're worried about your child? When your son wouldn't give you money, why didn't you think about what to do?"

Speechless with rage, Sun's mother trembled with anger. "You...you're going to ruin their future!"

Qingmo said nonchalantly, "Future prospects? What future prospects can you have without money? Nothing is more important than eating, drinking, and relieving yourself."

That's fine. She ran into Sun's mother halfway there, so she didn't have to bother taking the children back. She turned around and headed towards the town.

Hehe, I even got a few dollars back on my tuition. Shouldn't I go to town and buy some good food?

Ignoring his mother's curses behind him, he went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought some biscuits and fruit candies, ate a braised pork meal at a state-run restaurant, and packed another portion to take home.

After thinking about it, he realized that writing letters was too slow these days, so he went directly to the post office and sent a telegram to Sun Jianmin.

Back then, telegrams were charged by the word. Although we weren't short of money, we couldn't afford to waste it.

"Comrade, what message do you want to send?"

"Forty a month, or you'll have to go with the army."

Simple and straightforward, Qingmo finished sending the telegram and then happily carried her things home.

"Mommy, Mommy, hug me, hug me."

As soon as she entered the door, her own son rushed over, but Qingmo pushed him away with a look of disgust on her face.

This kid has snot bubbles all over her face and plays in the mud all day long. Don't touch her, she's filthy.

"Waaaah... Mom, you're bad... bad!"

Qingmo didn't even glance at him, and went straight back to her room with her things.

When Sun's mother saw her return with bags and packages, her eyes widened. "Girl, what did you buy? Where did you get the money to buy all this?"

"Oh! These are the tuition refunds."

Sun's mother was furious. "You're not letting the child go to school anymore, and you're wasting money. Are you trying to drive me crazy?!"

“It’s not impossible, Mother, please don’t say that. If it really doesn’t work, we can write to Jianmin and ask him to come back for the funeral.”

"you…"

Sun's mother was so angry that her chest ached, and she couldn't argue with her.

She's too old to fight, and she's not the kind of shrewish old lady. She only knows how to use subtle tactics. If you really ask her to fight, she's no match for you.

“Our Sun family really can’t afford to have a daughter-in-law like you. Yan Ni’er, you should go back to your parents’ home. I’ll have Jianmin come back and divorce you. I’ll marry a sensible woman soon.”

Sun's mother wanted to use this matter to manipulate Qingmo.

After all, in this day and age, a divorced woman is often subjected to scorn and ridicule, and she'll be too ashamed to show her face in public.

"What? Divorce?"

Well, now she's found another opportunity to go crazy.

They grabbed sticks from the woodshed and started hitting each other.

"I'll beat you heartless ingrates to death! You Sun family are so ungrateful! I've worked myself to death serving you!"

"Oh! Sun Jianmin has probably found someone else outside, and now you're going to kick me out."

"My God, why is my life so miserable? Not only did I give birth to a grandson for your Sun family, but I also raised three burdens. Now that the children are growing up, they want to kick me out of the house. I'll beat you to death, beat you to death."

She was chasing after four children, unleashing a torrent of energy.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Stepmother, stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"

"Waaah... We didn't say anything, stepmother, it's grandma, go hit grandma."

"Waaaaah... Mommy's so mean, she's hitting Xiaobao! Grandma, Grandma, help me!"

The children were chased all over the yard, crying and screaming.

This time, Sun's mother learned her lesson and turned to run outside.

She went to the brigade leader and asked relatives from the Sun family for help; she refused to believe she couldn't control this daughter-in-law.
