Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 35: Uneven Distribution of Houses
Think for a moment.

"Wife, don't provoke Tao Qiuyi unless it is necessary in the future." Boss Wei warned.

The old branch secretary did not stop Tao Qiuyi from going into the mountains, which shows that Tao Qiuyi must have the ability to protect himself in the mountains. He did not want his wife to suffer from Tao Qiuyi again.

"What? You don't think that little bastard is awesome, do you? It's hilarious." Zhou Mei said it was hilarious, but she didn't dare laugh. Her face hurt. "She was just abandoned by the Huang family and has a murderer grandfather. She was traumatized and her mind is not normal, so she became a bit aggressive. Plus, she died once before and she's willing to risk her life to fight others."

"Wang Chunjuan and I often worked in the fields together. No one knew the Huang family's affairs better than me. The Huang family treated her like a worthless child since she was young, never allowing her to leave the hospital. She was confined to the house to take care of the family, eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating."

"Wang Chunjuan also told me that she had arranged a very good marriage for Xiao Qianren, and that she would marry him when she turned 18. What marriage? To put it bluntly, she was just selling him for some betrothal money, and the Huang family would use her as a servant. I don't believe she can be that powerful."

Zhou Mei told her husband about the Huang family's gossip as a joke.

After listening to his wife talk about Tao Qiuyi's life in the Huang family, Boss Wei felt that he might be too suspicious and changed the subject.

"When did you go to see them?" Boss Wei remembered that she had always been working with him behind the house.

Zhou Mei rolled her eyes at him and replied, "It was when you, mother, and the third brother and his wife were working and discussing how not to give that room to Wei Jingyuan. My face was hurting so much, and I didn't want to get involved, so I told mother about it and went to the toilet, and that's when I saw it."

She would never admit that she was out here just to slack off and peek.

Boss Wei smiled calmly, "I didn't notice you going to the toilet, but you're so smart and have so many ideas, why don't you come up with a solution with us?"

He had a beautiful idea. It was definitely better to have more people giving advice than fewer.

"Why should I try to figure this out with you?" Zhou Mei asked back, "That room was left by the third son's wife as a wedding room for her third son. It has nothing to do with me, so I won't join in the fun."

She won't do anything that has no benefit.

Boss Wei was silent. His wife was a person who would not do anything without a profit. If she didn't get the house, then the third brother's family wouldn't get it either. She might even be secretly happy about it.

"Originally, we occupied seven rooms. Mom lived in one, we had three, and my third brother had three. Now we have to give one away. Mom and our room remain the same, but my third brother's room is missing one. The money we paid for the room is the same as ours. I'm worried that my third brother's wife will go to Mom and make trouble."

Unequal distribution will definitely lead to conflicts. Boss Wei now suspects that Tao Qiuyi did this on purpose in order to cause trouble for their family and the third brother's family and create the source of quarrels.

"Li Yuegui hasn't reacted yet. When she realizes that her house has one less room than ours, she will definitely go to her mother to make trouble." Zhou Mei said affirmatively. She knew her sister-in-law's temper too well.

"She has three sons. The eldest works in town and rents a room with his wife and children. The third and fourth sons live in the same room. The third son is dating a girl from the Huang family this year, and the room vacated by the eldest son is just right for the third son to get married."

"If we give that room to Wei Jingyuan now, she'll only have two rooms left. How could she agree? The third child will get married and live in one room, so where will the fourth child live?"

"But it's no use for her to make a fuss. Mother can't control Wei Jingyuan anymore. That house will be given to Wei Jingyuan sooner or later. She will set her sights on our house. Our house is just big enough for us to live in. I won't give it up."

"In case you're too soft-hearted, ask someone to take a message to the eldest brother's wife's house tomorrow. If his father-in-law's illness isn't serious, ask the eldest brother and his wife to come back with the child as soon as possible."

"Okay." Boss Wei nodded.

He wouldn't agree to give up his room. Zhou Mei put the handkerchief in the cold water and asked curiously, "By the way, have you come up with a solution?"

"I thought of one." Boss Wei saw clearly that no matter what method they used, Tao Qiuyi and Jing Yuan would not give in.

"They actually thought of one." Zhou Mei was a little surprised. Could it be that two cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang? They actually came up with a solution. "What solution?"

"My third brother's wife said that they will go to see Jing Yuan tomorrow, and the third branch will pay another hundred yuan to buy the house." Boss Wei replied.

Tao Qiuyi had suggested they buy the house, and they paid for it. Tao Qiuyi took the money and wrote a document for them to sign. The house was supposed to belong to Wei Jingyuan, and the document clearly stated that, and they had signed their names. Now, their mother and third brother wanted to change their minds.

It can't be done.

Third brother and his family need that room, and Jingyuan also needs that room. Third brother's wife wants to pay another hundred dollars to buy that room, but Jingyuan will definitely not sell it.

He didn't want to get involved in this matter, but his mother had spoken, so he had to help his third brother.

"She's dreaming. Tao Qiuyi definitely won't agree to sell it." Zhou Mei put a handkerchief on her face. The coolness of the handkerchief brought a slight coolness to her face, relieving much of the pain. "You said Li Yuegui's idea was for the third wife to pay another hundred yuan for the house. Didn't she say that we would split the hundred yuan between the two families?"

"No." Boss Wei shook his head. This was also what he found strange.

"Based on Li Yuegui's personality, she will definitely not pay the hundred dollars for her family alone." Zhou Mei guessed... No, her sister-in-law will definitely make a fuss.

Boss Wei asked, "Do you think she has something bad in mind?"

"She must be planning something bad. I can't think of what it is for now. If she doesn't target our family, I'll just watch the show. But if she dares to target our family, I'll make her pay." Zhou Mei moved the handkerchief to the other side of her face, covering it with the handkerchief, and grimaced in pain.

"Tao Qiuyi, that little bastard, makes me angry just looking at him. He's so stingy and lawless. If my face hadn't hurt so much, I would have wanted to rush up and fight him again."

"You can't beat her." Boss Wei said casually.

"How could I not beat her?" Sister Zhou snorted disdainfully and glared at Boss Wei.

"She hit us today. Firstly, it was so sudden. We didn't expect her to actually hit us, so we let our guard down. Secondly, there were too many people watching in the yard. If we beat her together, people would gossip about us and give us a bad reputation."

"Just wait and see. Next time I get the chance, I'll definitely give her a good beating and avenge the slap she gave me today."

Zhou Mei would never believe that she could not beat Tao Qiuyi.

"Okay, I'll wait and see what my wife does." Boss Wei agreed with a smile, and reminded her, "But you have to remember that it must be legitimate and beyond reproach. That little guy has a quick tongue and dares to say anything."

"Don't worry, I'm not as stupid as the third brother's wife." Zhou Mei was full of confidence.
