NOVPUBLin Lan wiped her face and neck with a handkerchief. This small courtyard was truly airtight from all sides. It was really hot, much hotter than her own home.
Second Sister-in-law Han snorted coldly and sat down next to Lin Lan, staying away from Han Jinyu.
She poked Eldest Sister-in-law Han, “Eldest Sister-in-law, please speak up. You are the eldest wife in the family. If you don’t speak, who will?”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han said, “I can’t say anything. Even if I say that I will contribute 100 Yuan or 10 quilts, I have to actually have them to be able to do anything.”
Apart from food and firewood, she only had a few things in the house after the separation. There were only two quilts in the house, which were shared between her and her two children that slept by her side. Why on Earth was she going to give one of them to Han Jinyu?
Instead, Old Lady Han was welcome to have her own fantasies anytime.
Seeing that Eldest Sister-in-law Han was saying the same thing, Han Jinyu started to cry, “Eldest Brother, are you going to treat me like this?”
Eldest Brother Han was in a dilemma, “Then what do you want us to do? There are no cloth tickets or cotton tickets…”
“Well, then go and exchange things for it. Find someone to change it with! Which families are still saving up cloth tickets? How long have they been saving up? Change it with them accordingly, then?” Han Jinyu exclaimed in a fit.
Second Sister-in-law Han, “Why should I exchange them for you? Why don’t you do it for me?”
Han Jinyu wanted to beat her up again, but Second Sister-in-Law Han didn’t let her.
Han Jinyu started to cry, “When I’m at home, you think that I’m an eyesore; but now that I’m trying to get married, you guys don’t want to help me.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han didn’t say a word, Second Sister-in-law Han snorted coldly and everyone looked at Lin Lan.
Lin Lan, “…Why are you looking at me? I don’t have any money to give you. You want so many quilts, but we don’t even have enough cloth tickets for that. You want money, but none of us have that much with us that we can give. You want dried rations, but sweetie, rations were all divided to us by certain amounts. So tell me, are you trying to get married or are you trying to get us all killed?”
“Boohoo…” Han Jinyu started to cry out of frustration after hearing Lin Lan put her in place. After separating houses, the old lady was no longer the one who could call the shots. Therefore, these sister-in-laws were now starting to kick her around, “You’re all bullying me.”
Lin Lan, with the way you cry so easily, it’s almost as if I was the one who bullies you all the time. True, I do have money, cloth and rations, but I have 5 children to feed. Under what basis do I have to give it to you?
Who are you to demand that of me?
“If someone is going to grant 3W1S to me, then I can’t give something too shabby either!” Han Jinyu cried.
Old Lady Han was also very angry. She thought that all 3 of her daughter-in-laws were pissed at her,
“Old One? Have you gone mute?”
