Chapter 217 Parents Who Prefer Sons to Daughters 4
As soon as the people who took Huang Meihua and the others to the hospital returned, the news spread throughout the village, and for a time, the topic of conversation among the aunties and young wives all revolved around the Jiang family.
Aunt A: "Have you heard? Have you heard? Tsk tsk tsk, I don't know what sins the Jiang Debang family committed, they've gone extinct. The whole family is women, how are they going to survive? Hahaha~"
Aunt B: "Pah, I think it's because they're immoral. Otherwise, why would that wolf go to their house instead of anyone else's when it came down from the mountain?"
C's wife: "Yes, I overheard my in-laws talking. Jiang Debang used to laugh at my father-in-law for being useless, saying he only had one son, my husband. But he had five sons in a row, and now all five sons, including himself, have become useless. This is going to be quite a show."
D's young wife: "This... I heard it was bitten off, I wonder what it looks like now, is it like a woman's body?"
Aunt A got excited upon hearing this and teased, "Hahaha, what, you want to pull down their pants and take a look? You little vixen, aren't you afraid of offending your own eyes, hahaha~"
The older women burst into laughter, while the young woman, not so thick-skinned, glared at the group of old ladies with embarrassment before continuing their gossip.
This incident quickly became a topic of conversation among the villagers, with women teasing and men sighing. No one dared to sleep too soundly at night, fearing that the wolf might come down from the mountain again, which would be a matter of life and death.
After two days in the hospital, the Jiang family returned home. After all, poor people can't afford to get sick, so it's better to stay home and recover.
One by one, they were carried off the tractor and helped into the courtyard. No one was invited in for a cup of tea. Once inside, Huang Meihua locked the gate tightly, afraid that the villagers would come to laugh at them.
Once inside, I had to go back to my room and lie down. I didn't dare take more than a few steps, because if the wound reopened, it would cost me money again.
The yard was still as messy as it had been two days ago, and no one was cleaning it up. Huang Meihua didn't think too much about it at the moment. Dragging her injured leg, she helped her sons back to their rooms to rest one by one.
She turned around and helped her husband back to the room, but when they got to the door, she found that it was locked from the inside.
"Huh! Why can't I open it? That's strange. I remember I didn't close the door before I left."
Huang Meihua pushed hard, but couldn't open the door. Jiang Debang, getting impatient, slapped her across the face.
Then he cursed, "You wretched woman, hurry up! Are you trying to work me to death? Now even you look down on me, huh?"
After being hit, Huang Meihua dared not speak, but silently pushed the door open. Then, thinking that there might be someone inside, she pounded on the door loudly.
"Open the door, open the door now, you brat, are you in there? Open the door now, or I'll beat you to death when I get in."
Qingmo was sleeping soundly in her room when she heard the noise outside. It took her a while to get up, mainly because the sound of the yellow plum blossoms was too jarring and made her wide awake.
She opened the door, tilted her small face up, put her hands on her hips, and gave Huang Meihua a disdainful look.
Huang Meihua: "Are you blind? Get out of the way, I'll help your father inside to rest. You brat, wait until I have my hands free, and see how I deal with you."
Qingmo kicked the two of them to the ground, then said, "Mom, this room is mine from now on. You and Dad can sleep wherever you want."
Jiang Debang was already seething with anger, and now that his youngest daughter was making such a fuss, his temper flared up, and he glared at Qingmo with eyes that looked like he wanted to devour her.
He roared, "Qing girl, don't force me to slap you to death! I'm your father, how dare you hit your own father? You beast, kneel down!"
Despite his harsh words, Qingmo remained unfazed and sneered, "Father, do you think you can still treat me the same way as before? I've heard from the villagers that you're now a monster who's neither male nor female. What right do you have to lecture me?"
Jiang Debang was so angry that he trembled all over. He was about to struggle to get up and teach Qingmo a lesson, but he aggravated his wound and grimaced in pain.
Seeing this, Huang Meihua quickly pulled Jiang Debang aside and advised, "Husband, don't be angry. We're not feeling well right now. Let's talk about it after we've recovered."
Then he looked at Qingmo and said, "You brat, what are you doing? Are you trying to anger your father to death? Get out of here right now."
Qingmo snorted, "Hmph, Mother, you said it yourself, that girls are all a waste of money, and only men who can carry on the family line are the roots of our family. Now that Father and my brothers are no longer men, they are the ones who are a waste of money. They have no roots left, are they going to cut off the Jiang family's lineage?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Meihua turned pale, fearing that her husband would get angry and beat her as well.
He hurriedly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How dare you talk to your father and the others? Go and clean up the yard. You wild girl, aren't you afraid your father will sell you off?"
Huang Meihua just wanted to get rid of Qingmo as soon as possible and deal with her later. Right now, standing at the door, supporting such a big man, she was exhausted.
Unfortunately, Qingmo did not get her wish. "Mother, if you give me away to the Jiang family, the family line will really end. My brothers will not be able to have children in the future. But I can. I will find a son-in-law to live with the family in the future. Then, if I have a child, wouldn't that be the root of the Jiang family?"
"So, Mom and Dad, you've always told me since I was little that the only one who can carry on the Jiang family line is your precious baby. Now I'm the only precious baby in the Jiang family. So you can go sleep in the woodshed now, I want to sleep here."
After saying that, Qingmo ignored their ugly expressions, closed the door, and took out her phone to watch a drama. No matter how much they cursed her, she simply ignored them.
Let them curse, let them be strong, I'll just use my iron palms to beat them so badly they can't get out of bed.
Hehehe…
The family was injured, and the two men had no choice but to go to the eldest and second eldest sons' room and let them sleep with the third son and the others. Fortunately, the kang (heated brick bed) in the north was large enough to accommodate all five brothers.
Having been away for two days, Huang Meihua had a mountain of chores to do at home. Cleaning was out of the question, so she had no choice but to accept her fate and continue working despite her injury.
Who told her to be the "money-losing girl" she herself was referring to?
Even though she herself was a girl and was treated as a boy by her parents since childhood, she felt resentful. But when she got married and had children, she transferred all the injustices onto her daughter.
How laughable, how pathetic.
