General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 625 Something Happened to the Zhang Family (1)

"It was my mother who said that I don't have to do anything!" The son said aggrievedly, not daring to resist the old man. It was clearly his mother who said that these things were girls' work and he didn't have to do anything and just had to wait for his sister to serve him!

"I'm asking you to do it now, are you going to do it or not?" the old man said angrily, picking up a wooden stick beside him and preparing to hit his son.

"No! That's a woman's job, what does it have to do with me!" said the son angrily. He had been spoiled since he was a child, and his mother had always coaxed him. Whenever he suffered such an injustice, he immediately turned around and ran back to his room and locked the door.

The woman just looked at her son in silence.

"What's wrong with you today? Haven't you always thought your son was a treasure? Why are you suddenly willing to let him work?" The old man has always felt that his son should not be spoiled. He wanted to take care of him before, but the woman always stopped him. Why has she changed now?

"Am I wrong?" The woman told her husband about how she took her son to settle accounts with Ji Xiaomu today and was scolded by Ji Xiaomu. She felt uncomfortable since she came back and kept thinking about Ji Xiaomu's words in her mind.

Before the family split up, the mother-in-law was still alive. She looked down on her because she gave birth to a daughter. She made her go to bed before she even finished her confinement. Although she had a man to protect her, she still suffered a lot. Later, when she gave birth to a son, the mother-in-law never dared to bully her again. Instead, she treated her well and coaxed her with good food and drink. This was because she gave birth to a son, so her mother-in-law always treated her son as the apple of her eye. When she saw her daughter, she would think of those painful days and so she didn't like her daughter.

After the family split up, the daughter took care of all the housework, and the good food always went to the son. The old man couldn't stand it and wanted to intervene, but she stopped him.

It was not until her daughter went to the embroidery workshop that there was no one to do the housework, so she had to take over. Fortunately, the old man helped her, so it was not so tiring, but her son never did anything.

After seeing her son's performance just now, she suddenly felt very confused. Her son does nothing at home. When they are old and can no longer work, will her son take care of her and the old man?

She used to believe that her son would take care of her in her old age, but now... she is a little doubtful.

"I told you a long time ago that you can't spoil your son. My daughter is sixteen this year, and he is fifteen. Have you ever done any work for the house? He just slacks off when he goes out to work with me all day long. He is lazy and no one appreciates the work he does." The old man and the woman think differently. He must think that men should be responsible, but his wife wants to spoil her son, and there is nothing she can do to stop him from beating him.

"Why didn't you tell me before?" the woman looked at the old man and sighed.

"I've told you everything, but you never took it seriously. You even say that I don't love my son. I know my mother has wronged you before, and it's my son who made you gain face and gain favor in front of my mother. So I understand that you love him, but I tell you, you don't care either. How can I argue with you?" The old man also felt aggrieved. He had to give in to his own wife, and he couldn't do anything about it even though he knew it was wrong.

"Why don't you care about your daughter?" the woman asked.

"I'm her father, how can I control her?" The old man glanced at his wife. "Besides, you don't like her, and you get angry and don't allow me to control her. What can I do?"

“……” The woman was speechless. She had no way to refute.

That night, the woman kept her eyes open until dawn and could not fall asleep. As soon as she fell asleep, she thought about how she treated her daughter the same way her mother-in-law treated her, and her heart ached.
