Chapter 459: Evil Mother-in-law 5
"Yes, I used to favor the third and fifth children. I paid for their education, bought a job for the third child, and helped him find a wife. All the money was sent back by the eldest child because he was the eldest brother and it was his responsibility to take care of his younger brothers and sisters."
"Now that the eldest has lost a leg, I will be more partial to him in the future. You, the younger brothers and sisters, also have the responsibility to take care of him, so this family cannot be divided."
"After all, our family has been supported by the eldest and his wife for so many years. Now that the eldest has lost a leg, this family will have to rely on you and the third brother to support it from now on."
"Second brother, I know you've been blaming mother for being partial, but every hand has its own strengths and weaknesses, so it's normal for mother to be partial. However, mother used to favor the third brother, and from now on mother will favor the eldest brother. I don't care what you think. Anyway, the eldest brother has contributed the most to this family. Now that the eldest brother has returned home and lost a leg, he needs his family to care for him, so I will never allow you to abandon your eldest brother."
"Second brother, your eldest brother is a hero. We, his relatives, cannot let the hero down."
"well said."
The village chief walked into the courtyard and looked at Yuanchun, "Xiangdong's mother, I didn't expect you to have such awareness. Well, well, we ordinary people enjoy the protection of heroes. When heroes return home injured, we should welcome them with open arms and never let them down."
The village chief walked up to Ma Xiangdong and patted him on the shoulder. "Xiangdong, don't worry. We will take care of you together in the future."
"Thank you, village chief. I will do what I can in the future. I will definitely not be a waste." Ma Xiangdong said with red eyes.
When his mother beat his second brother before, Ma Xiangdong didn't say a word to persuade her, but he was also hurt in his heart by his second brother.
He has given too much for this family, and his wife has also given a lot, but he didn't expect that after he lost a leg and returned home, he was despised by his second brother and his wife as a waste and a burden.
He was really hurt.
The village chief expressed concern for Ma Xiangdong and knew that he had just returned home and was weak and needed more rest. He did not want to disturb him any further and went back.
They also took away many nosy old people.
"Xiangdong...Da Ya's father..." Qian Hongmei, who just got off work and learned the news that her husband had returned, ran in anxiously.
She saw Ma Xiangdong sitting in a wheelchair at a glance, and immediately burst into tears and rushed to him, "Dad, woo woo, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back, woo woo..."
Qian Hongmei is a very insightful woman.
She was not sad that her husband lost a leg, she was just grateful that her husband came back to her alive.
For those soldiers who remain on the battlefield forever, she is grateful that her husband was able to stay alive and come home to reunite with her.
Although she thought so, Qian Hongmei still cried out of heartache when she saw that her husband's trouser legs were empty.
When Daya and Erya came back and saw that their father had lost a leg, they also cried.
Yuanchun's head hurt from the crying of the mother and daughter, and she said, "Eldest wife, stop crying. Xiangdong just came back, push him back to his room to rest first..."
Yuanchun paused for a moment and then changed the subject, "Push Xiangdong to Lao San's room to rest first. Xiangdong's leg injury hasn't healed yet, so he can't live in a damp thatched hut."
The Ma family's house is a new brick and tile house built three years ago. It has a total of six rooms, a double field-shaped layout, with two rooms in the east front and back. The original owner lived in the east front room, and Ma Xiangling lived in the east back room.
There are two rooms in the middle, one big and one small. The small one in the back is the kitchen, and the big one in the front is the main room.
There are also two rooms in the west front and back. Ma Laosan lives in the west front room, and Ma Laoer lives in the west back room.
The money spent on building the house was all the allowance sent back by Ma Xiangdong. Because he built the brick house and spent a lot of money on buying a job and marrying a wife for the third child, the original owner actually had little money left.
