Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up
Chapter 501 Gao's hidden wages are discovered by her mother-in-law
Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law knew about the matter so quickly. Gao stammered, "Mom, get up quickly and listen to my explanation!"
Who knew that Liao wouldn't even get up, and continued to cry and curse without saying anything.
Gradually, more and more people gathered around. They were all old ladies in the village. Knowing that Gao kept the money for herself, they all blamed her.
Because everyone has a different position, they themselves are other people's mothers-in-law. Standing in the position of the mother-in-law, of course they will help Liao.
"You shouldn't do that. The money you earn should be handed over to the mistress of the house. How can you keep it for yourself?"
"Gao, you look honest, but you are actually this kind of person!" Everyone was talking at once.
"..."
Seeing that everyone around her was helping her, Liao was very proud. If her daughter-in-law didn't give her the money, the spit of the whole village would drown her.
The Gu family's house is right on the roadside, and the country people like to join in the fun, and now they are preparing for the New Year.
The crops in the field have been harvested almost completely, and everyone is not in a hurry anymore. Seeing that there is some excitement here, they all come over.
Widow Wu saw that it was still early, so she picked up her hoe and wanted to go to the fields to check. There were not many laborers in the family, and she was the only one there.
Normally she would get up early to work in the fields, and then go to the workshop to work when it was almost time.
Now that I have some free time during the New Year holiday, I am thinking of turning the soil after the autumn harvest so that I won't be late when I plant crops next year.
Seeing many people gathering in the Gu family yard, many people followed suit. This lively scene also attracted the attention of Widow Wu.
He walked over quickly and seemed to still vaguely hear Liao's pig-slaughtering sound.
"Hiss~"
Widow Wu's heart skipped a beat and she twitched the corners of her mouth, remembering what she had accidentally told Mrs. Liao that morning. Widow Wu had a bad feeling in her heart.
With so many people gathered here, who knows what might have happened to the Gu family. Maybe that old lady Liao is starting to act up again.
If what happened was caused by her words, it would really be a sin. Thinking this in her heart, Widow Wu immediately quickened her pace and squeezed into the crowd.
Liao, who was sitting on the ground, became even more arrogant when he saw that there were more people around. No matter what Gao said, he had no intention of getting up.
He slapped his thigh and cried loudly, repeating to the people around him that Gao had hidden the wages.
"God damn it! I've devoted my whole heart to this family, but I never thought my daughter-in-law would have an affair with someone else.
She only gave me 200 wen out of the year-end bonus of one tael of silver, and kept 800 wen for herself. Everyone, please judge for yourself. Whose daughter-in-law is like this?"
Many elderly people sympathized with Liao and denounced Gao, saying that Gao should not have embezzled the wages. Gao's face turned red as he listened to the villagers' accusations, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Gao's son Gu Wen and daughter Er Niu stood by, looking at Gao at a loss. Her husband Gu Dong was nowhere to be found.
Unexpectedly, things turned out to be just as she thought. Widow Wu felt regretful! Gao was an honest person and was usually suppressed by Liao.
When Widow Wu learned that she had secretly hidden 800 coins, she really looked at her with admiration.
However, Widow Wu felt sorry for Gao. Since she got married, Gao had been working diligently and without any complaints.
It was just that Gao was not good at speaking and didn't like to talk much, which made Liao unhappy. Liao also always disliked Gao and would find reasons to scold her every now and then.
The husband Gu Dong also knew that his mother had a bad temper, but there was nothing he could do. He felt uncomfortable being caught in the middle, so he could only advise Gao to be more tolerant.
Looking at the situation today, if I don't speak up for her, Gao will probably be bullied to death. It's all because of my mouth. I can only find a way to say a few words for her.
"Hmph~"
Widow Wu squeezed in from the crowd and sneered at Liao who was sitting on the ground, "Mrs. Liao, if it were you, you should be content with having a daughter-in-law like this who gives you her monthly wages!
If it were me, I wouldn't give you a cent of the year-end bonus. Your daughter-in-law gave you 200 cents, which is good enough."
Mrs. Liao was sitting on the ground pretending to cry hard, but she stopped crying immediately after hearing what Widow Wu said.
With eyes wide open, he said, "Widow Wu, is this human language? It is natural to be filial to one's parents. The wages earned should be given to whoever is in charge of the household. Besides, I am doing this for their own good."
"Cut~"
Widow Wu sneered: "Mrs. Liao, you keep saying that respecting parents is natural. But it depends on whether the parents are worthy of respect.
You say you are good to them, but let me ask you, when Gao was bitten by a poisonous snake, you were too afraid to spend money to hire a doctor for her.
Even when Dachunniang wanted to save her, you still tried to stop her. If it weren't for Dachunniang who was under pressure and had to treat Gao's injuries, Gao might have died long ago, and she wouldn't be alive now to earn your wages."
Listening to Widow Wu's accusations, the villagers who were watching also remembered this incident and immediately changed the subject, starting to talk about Liao's mistakes.
Ma Pozi described it vividly: "Yes! I was there at the time. You don't know how serious Gao's condition was. One of her legs was black and purple, but this Liao Pozi was unwilling to call a doctor.
Later, Gu Dong invited a doctor, but it also delayed time. Finally, only Dachunniang had a solution, but Liao still stopped him from saving the child.
If Gu Dong hadn't said he wanted to sever the relationship, and if Madam Shen hadn't insisted, Gao would have really died!"
"Yes, I still remember that incident! In my opinion, this old lady Liao really doesn't treat her daughter-in-law as a human being." Zhuzi's mother also echoed.
Seeing that her words had worked, Widow Wu continued, "Everyone, please judge for yourself. This is a mother-in-law like her, but her daughter-in-law still pays her wages every month. What else does she want?
Gao has been busy for so long, it should be okay for her to save some money for herself, otherwise if something happens to her and her mother-in-law refuses to give her money, she won't even have money to save her life!"
"That makes sense! If it were me, I would keep some too."
When Mrs. Liao heard people around her talking about this, her face turned red and white, which made Widow Wu so angry that her teeth itched.
Gao didn't expect that Widow Wu would speak for her. She looked at Widow Wu with gratitude and suddenly felt very pathetic.
She had never dared to say a word of no in front of her mother-in-law, but her mother-in-law still thought she was not doing well enough.
Widow Wu chuckled and said, "Ms. Gao, you should speak more carefully. You were so good at managing people in the workshop, but why are you like a quail in front of your mother-in-law?
You have to remember to stand up straight. You earn a steady salary every month. You are not afraid of her!"
At this time, Gu Wen also stood in front of Gao, his dark little face raised his head stubbornly, and said to Liao: "Grandma, Aunt Wu is right, you didn't let the second mother save my mother at the beginning.
My mother is so good to you, but you always bully her. Now that I have grown up, I want to protect my mother. I won’t allow you to bully my mother anymore, otherwise, when you are old, I will not support you. "
Unexpectedly, her grandson would say the same thing. Liao slapped her thigh and started to cry and curse: "What a sin! Like mother, like son is born! You little bastard, how dare you say such treasonous words."
Widow Wu shook her head: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... So your Gu Dong is not much better. I feel ashamed for him to have a mother like this!"
