After Yan Xi left, Tang Mu cleaned the room by himself, then took out the computer, made himself a cup of coffee, and sat quietly in front of the computer to type.

During this period, he received a call from Song Wen.

As soon as Song Wen opened his mouth, he asked, "Where are you now? You won't go home during the Chinese New Year?"

Tang Mu said "En".

Song Wen was silent on the phone for a while, and suddenly said hoarsely: "It's okay, it's fine, it's fine if you don't go home."

Tang Mu suddenly felt that Song Wen's tone on the other end of the phone was not right, so he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Tang Mu heard the sound of walking over there, probably because Song Wen found a convenient place to talk, so he whimpered and cried at Tang Mu: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that it's the end of the year, your father likes to be at home It’s bright and bright, so it needs to be cleaned from beginning to end, including the roof of our house and the lampshade, which must be wiped until it is stained.”

"In such a big house, I must not be able to handle it by myself. Your aunt came to help. She has quick hands and feet and does a better job than me. Your grandma loves her daughter so much that she keeps making trouble for me. Your aunt is not very talkative. People listened and satirized me all the time, saying that the house was not clean enough, that I couldn’t do housework, and that I couldn’t be a good wife.”

"Just in time to clean up the house, your Dachengzi brother brought a group of friends over to play. You also know that his friends are all punks and have no quality. In front of me, dare to say Some are not pleasant to listen to. I didn’t dare to answer, I just told your grandma not to break the kettle at home.”

While saying this, Song Wen's voice became more and more hoarse, Tang Mu could hear that she was wiping tears on the phone.

"Your grandma ran into your brother Dachengzi's house and made a fuss. When your brother Dachengzi heard that I said it, he scolded me all over the face. Many things in the house were also smashed by him. The previous cleaning was all for nothing, but now the house is a mess, I really don’t know what to do. I have been cleaning for the past two days, and I can’t even lift my waist, woo woo woo..."

The situation Song Wen mentioned did not happen in the Zhou family in the first year.

Zhou Maoguo's younger sister has always been a troublemaker, and every time she goes home, she has to make things difficult for her sister-in-law.

I heard that Zhou Jicheng's biological mother, Zhou Maoguo's original wife, was very powerful when she was alive.

No one in ten miles or eight villages did not know that the woman was a naughty woman, and every time my sister-in-law came home, she would not dare to stay at home.As for Wang Hongjuan, she was also bullied very hard at that time. She was obviously a mother-in-law, but she pretended to be like her grandson in front of her daughter-in-law.

Not even the relatives of the Zhou family dared to provoke that one.

But now that it's the honest Song Wen, the situation has completely changed.

The Zhou family is like this, bullying the weak and fearing the hard.As long as Song Wen is more powerful, they dare not do this.

Tang Mu took a deep breath, and he said directly: "Mom, you have obtained the certificate and are legally legal couples. You still have a child, and now I am not in that family, and Wang Hongjuan will not lend me this again." Drag the oil bottle to run on you."

"Since it's all like this, what are you afraid of?"

"The Zhou family's house is so big that you are asked to clean up the chandeliers and the roof by yourself. Are you the Zhou family's nanny? Even if you hire a nanny, you can't use people like this?"

"The Zhou family has such a big business, Zhou Maoguo can buy a belt casually enough to pay half a year's salary for a nanny. I really don't understand, what are you thinking? Why do you make yourself so miserable?"

"Since Wang Hongjuan refuses to let you hire a nanny, it's always okay to pay for a part-time worker, right? The big deal, you pay for it yourself."

Hearing this, Song Wen cried even harder: "It's not that you don't know that if I spend money to hire someone else to do it, your grandma will arrange me again, saying that I am a lazy person, and will say that when I was poor in the past , she has to work in the fields even when she is pregnant. She will definitely blame me for being hypocritical."

"Yeah, because of this, when you were pregnant with Zhou Yu and almost had a miscarriage, she forced you to cook in the kitchen. Then let me ask, if you didn't do it at that time, what would she do to you? At most, she said you A few words, will she hit you? Will she dare to hit you?" Tang Muyue became more excited at the end, and his voice could not help but rise.

In the past, when Tang Mu was at Zhou’s house, whenever he was going to have a fit, Song Wen would persuade him to be patient. If Tang Mu said a few more words, Song Wen would cry with him, make trouble, and hang himself. She even slapped Tang Mu for it. son.

Is Tang Mu worried that he will be wronged? He is a big man, so he should be thick-skinned at worst.

But it was Song Wen's education method and attitude that made Tang Mu angry the most.

"She still doesn't dare to hit me, but you don't know what she is like!" Song Wen cried even harder over there.

"Then what do you mean by calling me? Are you complaining to me? If I was at home, would you still vent all your anger on me? Since you have the ability to get angry at me, why can't you return it?" How about going back?"

Song Wen sniffed when he heard this: "Tang Mu, you know how difficult it is for mother. If you hadn't met your father, how could you have the money to go to school? Maybe your mother and you are still together You are begging on the street. I know you are not satisfied with me, but I felt wronged at the time. I have no choice but to vent my anger on you. I can't go to your grandma to make trouble with her. Your father has always been a filial man. , if he knew that I had quarreled with your grandma, he would definitely beat me."

Tang Mu was so angry that his eyes were red: "You have a choice, you are cowardly, you are afraid, you dare not, the more you want to calm things down, the more they will push their noses. To put it bluntly, I will die in the future. Who else can you call and cry?"

"People must save themselves first, and then save others. You are too useless to live, but if you think of a way and know how to resist, you will not end up where you are today. Don't be unwilling to listen to me. Zhou Jicheng treated you like that today. You, even if you put up with it and clean up the house by yourself, Wang Hongjuan won't thank you either. The Zhou family won't thank you either."

"Not only will they not thank you, they won't remember your kindness. On the contrary, they will feel that you are better. In the future, they will only bully you even more."

Song Wen stopped crying, and said helplessly, "Then tell me, what can I do?"

Tang Mu gave her a direct move: "Now I have run away from home, and I will not eat a meal from Zhou's family in the future, nor will I ask for a penny from Zhou's family. In this case, Wang Hongjuan said you Talking about entrusting the child to take care of the cub and being a burden all day long will not hurt you anymore."

"Since you've been busy for a while, and Zhou Jicheng made things like that for the family again, you can call my dad directly. Let him send you money, and let him spend money to hire someone to go home and clean up. I believe that if you want this money, He won't give it up, right? Isn't he the best face?"

Song Wen calmed down now: "It's true that he won't be short of the money, but your grandma..."

"Did I tell you to leave her alone?" Tang Mu almost yelled at her directly.

Song Wen gritted his teeth and said: "But she went back to the small shop in the town and said, it's not like you don't know the people in our town. I'm afraid they..."

"They like to say whatever they like, but anyone who likes to gossip is not a good person. I believe there are still reasonable people in the town, and everyone has eyes to see. In the past, Zhou Jicheng's mother was so powerful, and the people in the town had Did you go to Zhou's house with a knife to kill someone? The more honest you are, the more you care about the opinions of the people in the town, the more they will bully you. Don't you think about this truth? Are you living for others to see? ?”

Song Wen was probably motivated by Tang Mu: "Okay, I'll call your dad in a while and ask him to give me money to hire someone to clean the house."

"It's just that, in this way, when preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner, your grandma will deliberately make things difficult for me again..."

The Zhou family has many rules, and Wang Hongjuan pays more attention to some old rules.Tang Mu had never even heard of those rules before.It would be fine to say that town S generally has this kind of rules, but it happens to be Wang Hongjuan's own rules.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, Wang Hongjuan was strangled to death at what time to steam buns, when to get up, when to distribute steamed buns, and when to go out to chop firewood.

If Song Wen did something wrong, Wang Hongjuan would burst into tears immediately, and said that if Zhou Maoguo's business did not improve next year, it would be Song Wen's fault for not following the rules.

Zhou Maoguo only got rich after marrying Song Wen. For so many years before, Wang Hongjuan also paid attention to poverty for so many years, and Tang Mu didn't see them get rich.

Everyone in the town said Song Wenwangfu, but Wang Hongjuan, who always liked to engage in some feudal superstitions, didn't believe it at this time.

The end of the year is Song Wen's busiest time.

She is like a donkey, being commanded by Wang Hongjuan.

In the past, when Tang Mu was at home, he could help her share some burdens.

Now that Tang Mu is not here, I am afraid that Song Wen will have to do all the work, including chopping firewood.

In the Zhou family's villa, boilers are fired in winter.Zhou Maoguo is the owner of the coal mine. He hired people to burn the boilers, and he burned all his own coal.

So the Zhou family didn't need to chop firewood at all, nor did they burn firewood at all.

But cutting firewood during the Spring Festival is a rule set by Wang Hongjuan.As long as she doesn't die, this rule cannot be broken.

If you don't cut firewood during the Spring Festival, and don't carry firewood at home on the night of the New Year's Eve, then in the new year, Zhou Maoguo will have no luck in doing business.

Therefore, the more firewood cut, the better Zhou Maoguo's fortune.If Song Wen cut less, he would definitely be scolded by Wang Hongjuan.

It doesn't matter if Song Wen asks the part-time worker to clean the house once. If Wang Hongjuan gets angry, she will definitely seek compensation elsewhere, and Song Wen must not make it easier.

"Then you don't have to cook the New Year's Eve dinner. There are so many restaurants in S Town that provide New Year's Eve dinner, why do you cook it yourself? As for chopping firewood, wouldn't it be better to hire someone?" Tang Mu said.

"But……"

Song Wen seemed to want to say something more, but Tang Mu directly interrupted her next words: "No but!"

"If you are afraid that Wang Hongjuan will embarrass you, you can pretend to be sick. Anyway, didn't Zhou Jicheng scold you today? You should go to the hospital for a comprehensive physical examination right now. You have headaches, and this time you are angry, isn't it logical? ?”

"If you are so sick that you can't even get out of bed, can Wang Hongjuan still drag you up and force you to chop firewood?"

Song Wen stopped crying after hearing Tang Mu's words.

She was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Okay, you are right, let's do it like this."
