Chapter 216 Making her apologize to a little girl?!

After all, the goods from the supply and marketing cooperatives can't compare to this fabric in front of us.

She's not stupid.

He said, "Sister-in-law, look at what you're saying. How can I let you spend so much money? I'm not picky. This one is fine. The color is festive, and it can be used after a few alterations. It will be perfect for my youngest son's third-day celebration..."

But before she could finish speaking, Dou Yufeng interrupted her again.

"Lin Chunxia, ​​I'm saying this for the last time: these belong to Qiaoqiao. No one is allowed to touch them, and don't even think about getting anything out of Qiaoqiao!"

Dou Yufeng is a typical example of someone with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Even with her sharp tongue, she had never spoken to Lin Chunxia so ruthlessly.

Especially in front of three children, Lin Chunxia's embarrassed face immediately turned bright red.

Her face immediately turned cold.

She snorted, "Dou Yufeng, explain yourself clearly! What have I been planning?! Have you forgotten how you got your good life?"

She scoffed irritably, "If my husband hadn't been injured back then, would my brother-in-law have had a chance to take over?"

"Now that your family is doing well, you've started to be ungrateful, haven't you? You're even putting on airs with me! How dare you?"

At the end, Lin Chunxia rolled her eyes at Qiao Qiao.

"If it weren't for my concessions, would you all be living such a good life now? Would you even have the money to support this money-losing brat outside?!"

The old man had three sons.

The eldest son, Tan Hongwei, and the second son, Tan Hongming, are about the same age, only a year and a half apart.

Fifteen years ago, Grandpa Tan had a spot for military service, but he didn't know who to give it to.

Coincidentally, a carpenter in town was recruiting apprentices at the time.

They took a liking to the two Tan brothers and sent one of them over to give it a try.

One became a soldier, and the other became a carpenter.

Both of these career paths were highly sought-after at the time, considered secure jobs, especially for carpenters. Carpentry was a lifelong skill; as long as one was diligent enough, one could at least be guaranteed a comfortable life, if not become extremely wealthy.

But being a soldier is different.

After all, very few people are able to stay in the military, rise through the ranks, and eventually become officers.

More often than not, they serve for a few years, receive a monthly allowance, and then receive a larger allowance upon discharge, which is then returned to their original place of residence.

In the end, nothing came of it.

At that time, the third son, Tan Hongxin, was still young, so he didn't need to consider it.

These two drastically different paths require the eldest brother, Tan Hongwei, and Tan Hongming to make a choice.

The two brothers discussed it all night and decided to draw lots. The result was that Tan Hongming would join the army, while Tan Hongwei would stay in Wushi and become a carpentry apprentice.

However, Tan Hongming injured his leg before he set off, and in the end, Tan Hongwei became the one who joined the army.

Tan Hongwei's performance was not outstanding in the first few years of his military service.

Seven years ago, after following Shen Qingyan on two missions, they were awarded a first-class merit and a second-class merit.

Later, without his knowledge, Dou Yufeng used the things given to her by Long Yijun to improve her health and physical fitness, which allowed her to quickly advance in rank.

This year, he was promoted to regimental-level cadre in just fifteen years.

Of course, this is also related to the help from Mr. Tan.

However, it must be said that because of this, the eldest branch of the Tan family became the best-off among the three brothers.

Over the years, thanks to this relationship, Tan Hongwei and Dou Yufeng have provided assistance to the second and third wives to the best of their ability.

Even two years ago, before they had even built their own apartment building, they built two apartments for these two families first, and the two apartments next door were for two and three families.

During holidays and festivals, Dou Yufeng would send money or clothes.

The eldest son's family has been paying for the tuition fees of the three children over the years.

Dou Yufeng believed that she had truly done her best for the second and third wives.

But Lin Chunxia was still not satisfied. Over the years, whenever she was unhappy, she would bring up this matter to complain.

Dou Yufeng was frustrated, but she had no choice but to compromise with Lin Chunxia over the years because of this.

However, this compromise is limited to their own side.

Since her family had indeed benefited from what happened back then, she had nothing to say.

But Qiao Qiao didn't have that.

In a sense, even setting aside her sisterly relationship with Long Yijun, Long Yijun was the real benefactor of their family.

Otherwise, given Tan Hongwei's physical abilities, he would never have risen to his current position so quickly.

How could she possibly sacrifice Qiao Qiao's interests to benefit Lin Chunxia?

Hearing Lin Chunxia dare to call her a "money-losing girl" in front of Qiao Qiao, Dou Yufeng's face darkened instantly, and anger filled her mind.

She stepped forward and grabbed Lin Chunxia's arm.

He shouted angrily, "Who are you calling a good-for-nothing? Who are you calling a good-for-nothing? Say it again! Do you believe I'll beat you to a pulp?"

Lin Chunxia was so frightened by her sudden change of expression that she turned pale.

She instinctively clutched her stomach and cried out in pain, but the next second she heard Dou Yufeng say, "Your stomach hurts again? Perfect! Come on, let's go to the family planning office right now and have this extra child aborted! That'll save us the trouble of spending that money!"

After Dou Yufeng finished speaking, she grabbed Lin Chunxia's arm and dragged her outside.

"Dou Yufeng, are you crazy?" Lin Chunxia was so frightened that she tried to shake her off but couldn't.

Finally, she grabbed the door frame of the main room and cried out, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, calm down, calm down! Help! Xiaoqian, Xiaoyan, please talk to your mother... husband, help!"

However, neither Tan Qian nor Tan Yan moved. After the initial shock, Tan Qian even brought over the basin of hot water that her mother had just put down, washed the towel, and worked with Tan Yan to wash Qiao Qiao's face and hands.

Qiao Qiao blinked her big eyes, looking completely innocent in the face of her plea for help.

A tiny pink bubble popped up on my forehead.

The little figure inside the bubble sat on a small stool, legs crossed, shaking his leg while cracking sunflower seeds, watching with great interest.

“Hongwei, Hongming, and Xinyue went out early this morning to buy New Year’s goods. There’s no other adult in this house besides you and me. I want to see who else can come to your rescue.”

Dou Yufeng sneered, putting on a cold expression that said no matter how much you screamed, no one would come to your rescue, and dragged the person outside.

"..." At the corner of the main room, Grandpa Tan, who was holding a small radio to his ear and listening to the military channel broadcast, silently withdrew his outstretched foot.

Finally, Lin Chunxia was so frightened that she slowly slid down to sit on the ground.

Clinging tightly to the doorframe, tears streaming down his face, he begged for mercy: "Sister-in-law, please spare me! It's me! I'm a worthless burden! I'm a worthless burden!"

“Then apologize to Qiao Qiao!” Dou Yufeng pointed in Qiao Qiao’s direction.

"What?" Lin Chunxia looked up in disbelief.

Ask her to apologize to a little girl?!
