Chapter 301: The Ruthless Wang Xiaofen 2

"Wahh, big brother, second brother, listen to this—is this something a human would say?"

Wang Yongzheng and Wang Yongshun exchanged glances, their lips twitching simultaneously.

"Well, uh, Gap-tooth, my little sister isn’t wrong. Back then, my big brother really did take a hit to the groin. You know how he couldn’t move well—not only did he get hit, but both sides were affected, and they both turned purple. Much worse than yours."

"Just like my little sister said, he still had to handle everything inside and outside the house. He wasn’t that delicate," Wang Yongzheng said, stretching the truth to console him.

Wang Yongshun’s face flushed red at his brother’s slander.

"R-really?" Zhou Jiabao turned to look at his brother-in-law.

Wang Yongshun nodded stiffly. "Really. My brother had it even worse—he got hit twice in one year. Every time, both sides were affected."

Zhou Jiabao felt slightly better. "But she did even worse things! On such a hot day, she wouldn’t turn on the fan for me, saying it wasted electricity. She wouldn’t even open the window and dug out a winter quilt to make me cover up, saying it was to ‘keep the boys warm.’ She said when she was in postpartum recovery, she wanted to turn on the fan to ventilate the room, but my mom stopped her, saying it wasted electricity. Now she’s taking revenge on me! And she said ‘keep the boys warm’—you have no idea. I couldn’t argue with her, and as a patient, I could barely move. I almost died from frustration!"

"She also said, ‘Which man hasn’t taken a hit?’ She said second brother had been hit twice in a row for two years and that more hits would toughen them up—they wouldn’t break. ‘Which man hasn’t gone through this?’

"She left the kids with me while she went to work—fine. But after work, she went shopping, leaving me and three kids staring at each other at home.

"You have no idea—taking care of kids is torture! They cry when they’re cold, cry when they’re hungry, cry when they’re not hungry, cry when they’re thirsty, cry when they pee, cry when they’re hot, cry when they poop their pants, cry when they want their mom… They cry all day long! One finishes crying, and the next starts. There’s no end to it, no rest…"

Zhou Jiabao recalled those miserable days and cried so hard he nearly passed out.

"You don’t understand—the two-year-old was looking for his mom all day. He’d cry until he was exhausted, rest, then cry again. When he really got going, he’d stretch out his arms and kick his legs like a possessed frog—he was practically swimming through the air! He cried so hard he could barely breathe, almost convulsing. I almost started convulsing with him!

"I was gritting my teeth, cupping my groin in pain. On such a hot day, I was shivering, covered in cold sweat, trying to pick the kid up—and then she barraged me with kicks… Wahh… Oh my god, I almost died right then and there!"

"I couldn’t collapse onto the bed properly, couldn’t lie down in peace. The moment I managed to slump onto the bed, the kids would start wailing like they’d been orphaned, lining up in front of me to howl.

"I was doing sit-ups all day—I couldn’t stop! Those few days even gave me a six-pack, but it also made my testicles hurt worse. The doctor told me to rest—how could I rest? How could I recover?"

"Finally, after enduring until Wang Xiaofen came back from shopping, she kicked off her shoes, flopped onto the sofa, and then had the nerve to glare at me and yell! She asked why I’d turned the house into such a mess, why I hadn’t cooked, why I hadn’t cleaned, why I hadn’t swept the floor—wahh!

"I was in this state, and she still said I did nothing all day, just lay around like a corpse, enjoying life. Before I could even say anything… wahh… then she left me with the kids, ignored me, and went back to her parents’ house alone…"

"She even yelled at me, ‘I haven’t even complained about your dysfunctional family jewels, how you’re always a slob, how you’d stray like any other man if you went out. I’m being generous as it is!’ Boo-hoo-hoo…"

"How did I end up married to a woman like this? Big brother, second brother, I ask you—what kind of wife acts like this?"

Wang Yongzheng listened to his brother-in-law’s grievances, his eyes full of sympathy.

"Was this the time a few years ago when she came back to stay for a week, and then your parents had to personally come pick her up?"

Zhou Jiabao’s eyes welled up with tears as he nodded repeatedly, choked up with resentment. He’d cast aside all dignity and laid everything bare—otherwise, his brothers-in-law might have thought Wang Xiaofen had run back home because she’d been wronged. In reality, it was Zhou Jiabao who’d suffered terribly.

Wang Yongshun’s heart ached, and he managed a weak smile to console him. "Xiaofen’s always been like this. You’ve been married for so many years—just put up with her a little more. Besides, wasn’t she the one you insisted on marrying back then?

"At the time, both our parents and yours objected, but you were determined. My dad even told you to think carefully, and you said you’d thought it through very clearly!"

Zhou Jiabao choked. "But I didn’t expect her to be this awful! And this time—my mom’s in the hospital, and she ran away again! I’m still injured, I’m still working, and there are kids at home. I’m juggling work, home, and the hospital—I’m running myself ragged! And her? She just went back to her parents’ house again.

"She never goes back normally. Every time, she abandons me when I’m at my most desperate. Couldn’t she have gone back any other time?

"Why did she have to run away when I took a hit to the groin and my mom was in the hospital, sticking me with all the kids?"

Wang Yongshun managed a weak smile. "Well, uh, Gap-tooth, stop crying. You’re a grown man—what kind of example is this?"

Wang Yongzheng suppressed a laugh and nodded, "Right, right, my brother's correct. Stop crying for now. We'll talk to her later and make sure she goes back with you soon."

"Leaving the whole house to you and running off like that—honestly, you knew how tough raising kids is, yet you still had so many. I heard you even wanted to give Xiao Wu away? Just because they're not yours, you don’t care, huh?"

Wang Yongzheng continued, "Besides, my little sister wasn’t wrong. When she was bedridden during her postpartum period, didn’t you all treat her the same way?

My sister still took care of the kids while recovering, and you all still complained she wasn’t doing housework, just lazing around at home, not even watching the kids properly?

You started it by being way too harsh, so she’s just treating you the same now. She went through all that—why are you acting so aggrieved now that it’s your turn?

And all you did was get hit in the balls—you didn’t even give birth. What man hasn’t gotten hit in the balls? My brother and I both did, and we got both bruised black and blue. You only got one, and we still worked in the fields afterward. My sister’s right—you’re really milking this."

Wang Yongshun widened his eyes, staring at his brother who was blatantly lying.

Wang Yongzheng pretended not to notice his elder brother’s shock and went on, "Admit it, isn’t that the truth? When she was recovering postpartum, she still took care of several kids and breastfed them. You don’t even have to breastfeed, and your mom still complained she wasn’t cooking. When she told you, you just told her to endure it. Now it’s your turn, and you’ve got it easy compared to her—why can’t you endure it?

So honestly, my sister’s right. You’re supposed to be a man, yet you’re acting like a baby. Even after you got hit in the balls, my sister still helped with the kids at night—at least you could sleep. Did you ever help her with the kids at night when she was recovering postpartum?

My sister’s already been considerate enough. If it were someone else, you’d have it worse. Besides, back when my brother and I both bruised black and blue, we didn’t bitch and moan like you. And you still have the nerve to go crying to your parents?"
