Chapter 211 Relatives Come to Seek Refuge 6
Now that Wang had caused such a commotion, the families of Bai Jun's two daughters-in-law began to back out.
They didn't want their arrival to cause unhappiness between their in-laws, nor did they want to live under the same roof with Wang, who obviously didn't welcome them.
Bai Jun was both ashamed and angry. He and his two sons and two daughters-in-law tried to persuade the two families for a long time, but they all said that they should find another place.
In the end, Bai Jingzhou's grandparents stepped in and arranged for the two granddaughters-in-law's parents and younger brother to live with them.
Bai Jun breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thankful that his face didn't fall completely to the ground.
He personally sent the people to the old couple, and then went home to get food and firewood.
It is worth mentioning that the two families actually brought their own food, but how could Bai Jun have the nerve to let them eat his food?
Even if they don't provide everything, at least they have to give two bags of food as a token of appreciation, and they must give enough firewood.
While he was thinking about it, he and his two sons were packing things onto the wooden cart. But at this moment, Wang couldn't help but jump out.
He cried and made a scene, and refused to let them send any food over, saying, "We don't even have enough food and supplies at home!"
Bai Jun was about to lose his temper with a dark face, but his eldest son Bai Jingtai spoke first, trying to reason with Wang, "Mom, they are your and my father's relatives, not my grandparents' relatives. My grandparents have done very well to let them live there. You can't expect them to use the income from their few acres of land to support our relatives, right?"
Wang didn't care about that. She said, "I told you not to keep it, but your grandparents insisted on pretending to be rich. Since they want to save face, let them ask their rich children and grandchildren for things."
His family and the second and third branches were separated from the old house at the same time, and the three families lived very close to each other. When she said this, Bai Jingzhou's second aunt and mother, who were in a hurry to deliver things to the old couple of the Bai family, heard it.
The two of them were too lazy to talk to her now. They just sneered and led the cows to the old house together.
Bai Jun was so ashamed and angry that he couldn't help but throw Wang away. But he still couldn't take anything away from the house because Wang lay down at the gate.
She was shameless, but Bai Jun and his two sons still had some dignity. They couldn't really let the wooden cart run over her.
In the end, Bai Jun chose to take out the silver and money to collect firewood from the villagers and buy food from Bai Chong's family who were free.
He could use the excuse that he didn't have enough firewood stored at home, and the food was bought from Bai Jingzhou anyway, so he couldn't embarrass himself in public.
As for Bai Jingzhou's mother and his second aunt, they each brought ten bags of grain and two carts of firewood to the old couple.
In addition, Bai Jingzhou's second aunt also gave the old couple a basket of eggs and a lot of soy products such as tofu, bean curd sheets, and bean curd sheets. Bai Jingzhou's mother gave them more coarse salt, pickles, a piece of meat, and ten fish.
People cannot live without salt, but the salt and pickles the old couple stored were definitely not enough for so many people.
The purpose of sending meat and fish was to allow the old couple to treat the other two families to a good meal, just like Bai Jingzhou's second aunt sent eggs and soy products.
After all, they are normal and respectable in-laws. It would be embarrassing for them to come and stay with them. And their ignorant sister-in-law has caused such a scene. They have to help the old couple and Bai Jun and his son to make amends.
The old couple were indeed very angry at first, but after the arrival of these two sensible daughters-in-law, the old couple felt relieved and no longer bothered with the stupid eldest daughter-in-law.
In addition, Bai Jun and his son later gave the old couple a lot of things, and the old couple gradually felt better.
But that night, avoiding the relatives who came to pick him up, the old man Bai couldn't help but sigh and said to his wife: "Let's make a fuss. She will be happy if the eldest son and the two daughters-in-law are alienated from her."
Old Mrs. Bai also sighed, "She is already a grandmother, we can't control her like before."
She is not a child anymore, she can act like a spoiled brat. But with her behavior of not leaving any way out, when she gets old, no daughter-in-law will be truly filial to her.
A similar conversation also took place at Bai Jingzhou's second uncle's house.
Bai Jingzhou's second aunt looked down on her eldest sister-in-law. Her opinion was consistent with Bai Jingzhou's grandparents. She believed that if Wang continued to act like this, her two daughters-in-law would only be able to do superficial work in the future.
Bai Jingzhou's second uncle thinks that whether a daughter-in-law treats you well in the end depends not only on how you treated her before, but also on whether she has a conscience and is filial.
This principle also applies to each family's own children. There have always been children in this world who only know how to ask for things from their parents but never think about giving back to them.
It is worth mentioning that there is someone staying at Bai Jingzhou’s second uncle’s house now.
Bai Jingzhou's second aunt's parents and two brothers have helped their family with work over the years, and they often give her some money when she returns to her parents' home.
Although the sisters-in-law had complaints about this, they never gave her a cold shoulder in person, and as for the complaints behind her back, Bai Jingzhou's second aunt simply pretended not to know.
It was a rare opportunity for her to be able to give something back now, so of course she would actively invite her family to Baijia Village.
After consulting her husband and children, she sent a message to her parents' home early on, but her family kept delaying until they could no longer put it off and then came to her embarrassedly.
In addition to the above families, the relatives of one of the two families in the village who did not participate in the patrol team also came to join them.
The patrol team member responsible for delivering the message also delivered the message to that family, but their family neither contributed people nor food, and it was impossible for Bai Li to let their relatives enter Baijia Village and take advantage of it.
He didn't drive them out because they had lived in the same village for so many years.
However, before Bai Lizheng could tell his relatives that his family was not qualified to let relatives into the village, that family had already been very cold-blooded and personally rejected his relatives' request to stay in the village.
They didn't even come in person, but just asked the patrol team who went to report the news to pass on a message.
Bai Lizheng saved himself some trouble, but he was not happy about it, because he was very upset that people like them appeared in his village.
The relatives of that family didn't even see them, and they didn't dare to do anything under the noses of the patrol team members of Baijia Village, so they had to leave together cursing.
After all the irrelevant people left, Gu Wenxuan went to find the family that she had asked Bai Chong to help delay time.
"Your family has many strong men, and we just happen to be short of people to do the work. If you are willing to work for me, I can guarantee you and let you stay."
"Of course, I won't let you work for nothing. In addition to providing you with accommodation, I can also give the strong laborers who work for me 100 kilograms of sorghum rice every month."
