Strict Wife Of The ’70s Manages The Household - Chapter 590

The key point was that his mother was also generous and open-minded. Although she loved her son, she was not bad to her daughter-in-law.

As a young lady back then, she loved his good looks, but now, she couldn’t count the amount of times she wanted to give her younger self a good slap on the face.

Plus, Zheng Yaozu would occasionally make half-truthful jokes about Lin Mei not being as good-looking as Lin Lan. He also said that Lin Mei didn’t understand his amorous feelings or being unable to comprehend a love letter that he had written for her.

Lin Mei yelled at him directly, “Say anything more and I’ll starve you for three days.”

Zheng Yaozu could only murmur quietly in response.

After the New Year, time flew by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, on the 9th day of the lunar calendar, Han Yongfang and the Team Leader came to preside over the separation of the Old Man Han’s family and arrange for the elderly care.

A group of people sat around the square table in the main room, talking bit by bit about the separation.

Although Old Lady Han had recovered from her ‘illness’, she still wrapped her head with a piece of white cloth and wore a black velvet hat that Han Qingsong brought back to her before.

She held her cane in her hand and would bang it on the ground from time to time to vent her anger.

According to her wishes, Haotian should get out of here quickly, out of sight and out of mind.

In fact, Eldest Sister-in-law Han had already moved into the brigade’s house on the night of the first day of the New Year’s celebration. She took Gumi back to her parents’ house on the second day and didn’t come back until the fifth day. She also borrowed some rations and a few industrial coupons from her parents’ house, saving them up so she could buy a new iron pot.

Lin Lan lent them her old pot and mixed some food for them in case of emergencies.

After the families were separated, Eldest Sister-in-law Han didn’t even return. Only Haotian came back.

Old Lady Han snorted, “Let’s separate the three of the First Family out first. The Second Family has no place to go even if they move out, so they’ll live at home first and we can talk about it later.”

In the past few days, Eldest Sister-in-law Han gave up her job at home and thus, no one was doing the housework. Second Sister-in-law Han and Han Jinyu could only complain and push the blame to one another. Hence, this led to Old Lady Han feeling that things would not be right if she didn’t leave at least one daughter-in-law in the house.

If the Second Family was separated as well, then she and her daughter would be the only women at home. From then on, there would be no one to take care of them, so they would have to do all the housework.

How could she be willing to do this?

Her precious daughter had never worked hard since she was a child and her hands have become rough by now. So, in the absence of anyone better to call upon, the lazy Second Sister-in-law had no choice but to help out.

Second Sister-in-law Han was not one to swallow her anger. She would always take action whenever she deemed it was required, “Even if we live at home first, we still have to divide the divisions and do them accurately so that the Eldest Sister-in-law and the Third Family will not have any objections. We will not take advantage of them.”

She said it very arrogantly, as if she had never taken advantage of them.

Old Lady Han was so angry that her neck became stiff. In the past, when she still had money in her hand, the Second Family had their eyes on her. They also said that they would never separate from their parents and would serve them forever. 

Now? Knowing that the elders no longer had any money, they were going to drop the act.

How could Old Lady Han not be pissed?

But before, she was the one who suggested splitting the Second Family out and leaving the First Family with them. Therefore, she couldn’t come up with a good reason for them to remain if they wanted to leave, making her eyes red with suppressed fury.
